Just when the two were fighting to a standstill, the beast suddenly retreated, opening its mouth wide, revealing its sharp fangs.
Kerry noticed something strange about its mouth: the teeth were so sharp they could shatter a skull, and saliva dripped from the edge of its mouth...
She suddenly realized that the beast had no tongue in its mouth.
It wasn't that its tongue had been cut off or retracted, but it simply didn't have one, and there was no trace of its existence, as if it was a creature that naturally had no tongue.
Judging from the skeletal structure and physiological characteristics of the hairy beast, it obviously belonged to mammals, and as far as Kerry knew, there were no mammals that were without a tongue.
Tongues developed as early as the invertebrate era.
What was going on with this thing? Was it a degeneration caused by inbreeding? Or a gene mutation caused by heavy elements?
