After a moment of silence, he spoke: "It's normal that I haven't heard of it."
Why?
"Because they are not creatures from Earth."
Michiru suddenly stopped in her tracks: "?"
Kato Megumi turned her head and glanced at it: "This is not Earth."
Michiru opened her mouth, then swallowed it back.
Of course I know this isn't Earth. A Triceratops ran right past me two days ago; that's a Cretaceous creature.
"But... Triceratops was at least a dinosaur, and dinosaurs were at least creatures that existed on Earth."
Michiru waved the seagull vines tied in her hands.
"This three-eyed bird? Even dinosaurs didn't have three eyes!"
Kato Megumi did not answer immediately, but looked down at the road beneath her feet, her pace neither hurried nor slow.
"Do you remember the little fish I saw the day before yesterday?"
Michi asked, "What about those strange markings on that fish?"
"Ah."
Kato Megumi nodded.
“Those patterns don’t look like they’re formed naturally; they’re regular, like some kind of symbol.”
Michiru frowned: "So?"
Kato Keihei calmly analyzed, "There may be ecosystems in this world that I am unaware of."
"Ecosystem..."
Michiru muttered a word, then suddenly her eyes widened.
"Wait, Hui, you mean that the three-eyed seagull might be a mutation..."
Kato Megumi calmly replied, "A mutated individual."
"Yes, a mutation!"
Michiru clapped her hands loudly, her eyes filled with astonishment.
"Is there something in this place that can cause organisms to mutate?"
"It's just speculation," Kato Megumi said noncommittally.
Michi had a sudden inspiration and turned the screen up to the maximum setting in an instant.
Carrying the seagull, she quickened her pace and walked side by side with Kato Megumi, her tone growing increasingly excited.
"Hui, if there really is something that can mutate living things, wouldn't there be something else?"
"For example...for example, goblins? Elves? Dragons?"
Kato Megumi glanced at her expressionlessly.
Although this is another world, isn't it a bit outrageous that magical creatures appear here?
"I really!"
Michiru is getting stronger and stronger.
"Aren't all those anime novels the same?"
"Travel to another world and encounter all sorts of fantastical creatures, elves, dwarves, orcs, goblins, and so on..."
"Another world."
Kato Megumi interrupted calmly.
"Yeah, isn't this another world?"
"This place is probably from the late Cretaceous period."
Based on the information currently available, Kato Megumi carefully corrected the error.
"The presence of Triceratops indicates the Dinosaur era."
"Which dinosaur era did you see goblins in?"
Michiru was speechless, but immediately retorted with strong arguments.
"What if we create a new one?"
"What if the world is different from the Cretaceous period I know?"
She held up a seagull and waved it in front of Kato Megumi.
"Look at this guy, did dinosaurs have three-eyed seagulls like this?"
Kato Megumi glanced at the seagull, her golden third eye meeting its gaze.
Chapter 345: From now on, you will be our sentinel bird!
"no."
It must be admitted that such a three-eyed bird did not exist in the Cretaceous period, right?
"That would be terrible!"
Michiru clapped her hands excitedly.
"Since there couldn't have been three-eyed seagulls in the dinosaur era, does that mean this world isn't entirely the dinosaur era as I understand it, right?"
Kato Megumi didn't say anything, but she slowed her pace a little.
Michiru knows that this is a sign of listening attentively.
So…
Michiru continued her eloquent speech.
"If there are dinosaurs and three-eyed seagulls in this world, there must be even more strange things."
"Perhaps there are elven ruins somewhere, perhaps goblins are mining in a cave, perhaps..."
"Michiru."
"Ok?"
"You have a rich imagination."
Michiru was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Praising me or belittling me?"
"Exaggeration."
Kato Megumi's lips twitched almost imperceptibly.
Michiru laughed even louder, her laughter echoing through the forest and startling several ordinary little birds into flight.
"But really, Megumi."
After laughing, Michiru's expression became slightly more serious.
"If...if I..."
"If this world really exists like in those anime, with intelligent beings, what should I do?"
Kato Megumi: "Let's observe from the sidelines for now."
"Hiding from observation?"
"If there are intelligent beings, it would be dangerous to make contact with them rashly."
"I am not familiar with the rules of this world, nor with its biological habits."
Michiru tilted her head, agreeing: "That makes sense."
"If I encounter a grumpy elf, it might shoot me through with an arrow and I'm doomed."
Megumi Kato: "So we need to ensure our safety first before we start observing."
Michi asked, "What if, after observation, we find that the other party is friendly?"
Kato Megumi remained silent for a moment, then looked up at the distant tree canopy.
We'll talk about it later.
Michiru chuckled: "I know, Megumi will definitely find a way."
The two continued walking forward, and the campsite came into view.
Faint smoke rose from beside the cave, the fire from the morning's smoked fish hadn't completely died down.
As they approached the camp gate, Kato Megumi put down her wicker basket and took out the bird eggs one by one to examine them.
Michi stayed to the side, squatted down, and used a small twig to poke and tie up the seagull.
The seagull was exhausted and lay on the ground panting, but its golden third eye was fixed on Michiru.
"That guy has such fierce eyes."
Michiru poked the seagull's wing.
"Hui, is it possible that she became a mutant animal after being exposed to radiation?"
There are no radiation sources here.
Kato Megumi put the bird eggs back in the basket and carefully lined them with dry grass.
"Then why does it have three eyes?"
"do not know."
Kato Megumi stood down in front of the seagull and crouched down to observe it carefully.
Seagulls are indeed larger than ordinary seagulls, with more developed muscles and sharper beaks.
The third eye was positioned right in the center of the forehead, with slightly shorter feathers around it, as if space had been specially reserved for the eye.
"The third eye..."
Kato Megumi stretched out her hand and waved it in front of the seagull's eyes.
The two normal eyes would follow the movement, but the third eye did not react, simply staring intently at the two people.
"Can't you see?"
Michiru Minato.
"uncertain."
Kato Megumi shook her head: "Perhaps it's a different way of sensing light, such as sensing heat, or sensing something I don't know?"
"Calories? Like a snake?"
"Ah."
Michiru shuddered: "So when you were staring at me just now, were you sensing my body temperature?"
"possible."
Michiru immediately took two steps back: "Then I'll move away now."
Kato Megumi glanced at it: "Tethered."
"What if we could use a third eye to emit lasers?"
"..."
Kato Megumi remained silent for a full five seconds.
"Michiru."
"exist!"
"I'll watch fewer cartoons in the future."
"I didn't!"
Michiru cried out in grievance.
"My name is Rational Science Fiction!"
