The Game of Evolution

Jack Darwin and 9 other candidates are taken from earth and have been chosen to compete in The game of Evolution. In which each candidate gets a choice of 1 prime race and 2 minor races to control,command, and evolve. The candidate will all be on the same planet of ludum mundi and will have to fight to survive against the other contestants and the world itself. (Had this idea in my mind thought I'd try it out) Also since there has been problems beacuse of the update I will be uploading under the same name for my profile and story on royal road. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/308429

A good old hunt

"So it looks like there are about 10 tribes with one or two tribes in each biome, and they all seemed to have some slight differences"-Jack

"Hey, system, do I get access to the religion system then?"-Jack

[]In one week host, they will have stabilized and started to question and wonder more, and some will lean toward the truth while others will ignore it[]

[]By then, you will have enough followers to begin the creation of your race religion, but make sure you choose wisely as it is an important decision[]

"Well, at least I get to watch these guys again. I kinda missed doing that"-Jack

And so that is what Jack did as he sat down and ladylike, watched his race interact with each other much more, and started doing things most tribes did. In the jungle biome, a group of 3 Jackrixis was slowly making their way through the tops of the trees as they stalked their prey. Above the trees in the sky, three birds watched as the rixis moved as they trailer them, watching as they soon found the prey they were seeking and flew down to their friends.

The rixis stopped and looked up as they saw their feathered allies swoop down onto their shoulders and chirp at them, which they learned over time meant prey was nearby. The two large rixis who you would think one of them would be the leader looked at the smaller male in the middle who had brown skin and green hair with black eyes.

The two large males had green skin and brown hair and brown eyes, and they seemed to be twins, which currently was quite rare in the rixis Race. Two other males looked at the small male and waited as he thought and then signalled to them that they would go and hunt the prey they had been chasing.

The two males then gave low growls as they started to aggressively swing and jump through the trees, and in a clearing, they found their prey. It was a large snake with bright yellow scales and fire-like orange eyes. What was strange about the 12 ft long snake was the fact it was bright yellow. It was a bit obvious that a 12-foot yellow snake would be easily seen in a jungle of green and brown and many more colours.

But of course, there was something special about this little snake, and as it flicked its tongues to taste the air, it quickly sensed something above it. The two males jumped from the trees and swung down towards the large snake, hoping to use a surprise attack and brute force to win the fight. As the two large rixis fell through the sky, aiming to hit the snake, the yellow monster quickly looked up and, from its mouth, released a sticky mixture at the rixis. This substance stuck onto their bodies and caused them to itch all over, but it did not stop them from attacking one male slamming his fist into the head of the snake.

The other missed his mark and slammed down onto the snake's tail and quickly stumbled to the group since most of the force didn't go into the snake's tail. This sadly left the rixis won't no breath in his lungs as he struggled to breathe, which left his brother two fight the snake on his own.

The brother noticing his brother's blight kept fighting while trying to make sure the snake focused on him and was currently trying not to be bitten. The other Jackrixis stood in the trees watching as they fought and motioned for the birds to move the recovering brother from the snake. The 3 birds grabbed the arms of the rixis and slowly moved him away a few meters just enough to not be hit by a stray tail.

The fight went on, but one brother could not win alone. Luckily, the other twin was back in the game, and they both started to fight the snake. The yellow beast hissed at its enemies and realized it had been injured throughout the hard battle and only had one option left it wanted to survive. The yellow substance it spat out was still on the rixis bodies and was highly flammable, but not only that, the toxins that came with the smoke were extremely deadly. So if the prey managed to survive their body being on fire, the toxic fumes of the smoke would soon make them fall truly a powerful attack.

However, there was a reason for the leader to hold back, and it was for this very moment as he too jumped off the tree and quickly diced down.The rixis hands were behind his body as he stared down at the snake, who was getting ready to set fire to the yellow substance when it felt immense danger.

Before the snake could look up, the leader slammed his claws into the snake's eyes and quickly latched on as the snake roared and hissed in agony. The snake tried thrashing around in the hopes its prey would be shot off and crash in a tree or anchoring else as long as it no longer harmed its eyes. It, however, was not to be as the leader held on and slowly dug his claws further and further into the snake's eyes unit he reached its brain. The snake stopped moving and slumped to the ground with its body twitching even after its death, and the leader stood on its large body. The twins helped each other up and patted each other off as they looked at their kill in awe as the leader raised his head and roared at the sky.

The two twins followed and also roared as they celebrated the win against such a terrifying creature as their bird's companions flew around in glee. After a small celebration, they looked at the carcass and decided to do something they had done before, which was to take the body back to the tribe.

Usually, the Jackrixis would find and stalk prey and then kill it and would eat what's needed, then leave some do more or less. But since they were now in a larger group and things were changing, they decided to bring the corpse back home to show the tribe.

It took them a few hours, but eventually, they hauled its body back to the tribe who was waiting for them at the entrance they had between two large trees. It seems their bird companion had gone ahead and told them they were coming back, and so everyone was already there and numbered 22 rixis altogether. They all roared and cheered as the large body of the snake was dragged into the middle of the tribe and they quickly stripped the body of its meat.

This was the first time a body was brought back and was also the first time a trophy was managed to be made from the whole corpse. With the help of the birds, they managed to keep the skeleton fully intact, which for the current est was marvelous. But to be fair, the birds did the hard work as they waited for the large pieces of meat to be gone until the rixis was stuck on how to not break the delicate structure. That's when a group of hundreds of birds lifted the remains away and a day later brought back the skeleton, laying it slowly in the middle of the tribe.
