Chapter 123: Carapace
Just imagine, if Ye Ren, who already has the strange power of ant genes, suddenly hits a target with a punch at the speed of a flea bouncing, what will be the consequences?
I'm afraid that if it were a normal person, Ye Ren would punch the other party and turn it into meat sauce, right?
But of course, if the power of the flea bounce is transferred to the arm, then it is better to eat a bullet shrimp directly, this thing is much more powerful than a flea, it is said that the speed of the bullet shrimp when hunting and attacking, even compared to the disemboweling bullet, here the flea is just a metaphor.
However, once Ye Ren clears up his own thinking, there may be many abilities that can be flexibly combined in the future.
"System, call up the list of genes. β
After thinking about the function of the debugging pool for a while, Ye Ren did not rush to try it, but walked under the huge gene streptosphere first, and with a light click of his finger, he called up the list of genetic information stored in the gene streptosphere, and began to carefully examine the new genes he had harvested after entering the Amazon.
Like a jaguar, the genes of a forest snake or something are normal, Ye Ren just swept it over and locked his eyes directly on the genes of the piranha and the marching ant queen.
Ye Ren first looked at piranhas.
Piranhas have very few genetic abilities, and there are only two, one is the masseter muscle, which can strengthen the muscle strength of the neck and masseter muscles, so that it is easier to tear the meat off the prey. The other is bloodstain pursuit, being able to smell the surrounding blood and find each other according to the smell of blood, these two genetic abilities are not particularly strong, which also makes Ye Ren a little disappointed.
"This piranha is too weak, isn't it?"
Ye Ren shook his head in disappointment, and turned to look at the queen's genes.
As a result, I don't know if I don't see it, I am scared to pee when I see it, Ye Ren inadvertently saw the genetic ability of the marching queen, and his eyes immediately couldn't leave, and even gasped because he saw the strength of the genetic ability of the marching queen, "Hiss..."
The queen of the famous Amazon marching ant actually has five genetic abilities.
The first ability looks a little bland, the information transmitted by the light white soft ball of light is called accelerated egg laying, as the name suggests, this is the ability to make the queen ant lay eggs faster, even if Ye Ren evolves, it is useless, so I will not look at it for the time being.
The second ability is called a breeding device, Ye Ren carefully checked the information of this ability, this ability is a bit of a mouthful, if Ye Ren evolves this ability, then Ye Ren himself can have a complete set of queen ant laying and reproductive organs, can produce a large number of eggs in a short period of time and hatch army ants, thinking of the overwhelming ant tide offensive of the Amazon marching ants, Ye Ren was still a little moved at that moment, but after all, this ability is a bit strange, Ye Ren is not sure what this breeder is all about, what if he changes his genderοΌ
The third ability is called dominating the ant colony, which is actually similar to the two antennae on his head now, except that Ye Ren's current ability is to use pheromones and some other special techniques to communicate with insects, while the queen ant is directly through the antennae to control her entire ant colony in a large area.
Ye Ren guessed about this, if the third ability could dominate the other ant colonies, there was still room for consideration, if he could only control the ants that he had bred by himself, then he could only say goodbye.
The fourth ability is the exoskeleton, there is nothing to say, as long as it is an insect, it seems to have this ability, and the fifth ability is called strengthening, and the general ability is that the queen ant wants to eat delicious food, drink good drink, and then there are good things that the queen ant gets herself, and then the queen ant herself will become stronger, and the next generation produced by her will become stronger and stronger, fierce...
β¦
"So if the queen ant eats the ant fat fragrance, it is estimated that few people in the entire Amazon will dare to argue with her, right?"
Thinking of the fifth ability of the queen's talent gene, Ye Ren muttered to himself, and then sighed: "It's a pity that they are all full sets of abilities, and they are not so powerful when they are taken apart..."
As soon as he recalled that almost all of the queen's innate abilities were developed around the egg-laying organs, Ye Ren couldn't help but have a little headache, although the queen's abilities just look very good, and even have the opportunity to form an army of ants to sweep the Amazon or something, but what the hell is the queen's organs, anyway, Ye Ren definitely doesn't want to try what it's like for the queen to lay eggs now, and even if he gritted his teeth and accepted the queen's organs, it was not so easy, there are a total of five queen's talents, and these five talents complement each other, which can be said to be indispensable, and Ye Ren is definitely not able to degenerate his own gene groove to evolve the ability of the queen ant.
So after thinking about it again, Ye Ren still had no choice but to give up the talent gene of the marching queen.
However, although Ye Ren gave up the talent gene of the marching queen, he still did not let his gene slot be empty, only to see him shift his gaze to the scorpion-tailed bee exoskeleton that had already been selected, and with a slight click, the black ball of light slowly floated out of the spiral-shaped gene.
The scorpion-tailed bee's exoskeleton enhancement is not particularly expensive, and the first level only requires two hundred and fifty evolution points, but although it is not expensive, Ye Ren still rolled his eyes, Nima's number is not very good.
After Ye Ren determined the exoskeleton gene of the scorpion-tailed bee, he clicked the ball of light and determined it against the system, and the entire ball of light slowly melted into Ye Ren's body, and soon Ye Ren lost consciousness again, but this time Ye Ren's consciousness recovered quickly, but he felt that the skin of his whole body was a little numb, and he woke up after a while.
When Ye Ren came to his senses, he was stunned to find that his body had been wrapped in a black carapace.
"Da-da..."
Trying to knock on this layer of black carapace with his fingernails, Ye Ren found that this layer of carapace was not as hard as he imagined, at most it was a little harder than the carapace of insects, and it couldn't achieve the effect that Ye Ren wanted to achieve, so he immediately took two steps directly, lay down in the pale green evolution pool, let the clear green liquid drown himself, and spent two thousand five hundred evolution points to start genetic evolution.
Since it was a crustacean evolution, the evolution time this time was not long, and even Ye Ren didn't fall asleep, just dizzy.
"Whoa. Ye Ren stood up from the pale green liquid, still tapping his carapace with his fingers, this time the sound was obviously much heavier than the last time, making a dull sound of "bang", and the black surface of the carapace became a little deeper.
"Or average..."
After knocking on the exoskeleton carapace on his chest, Ye Ren muttered to himself, but now his mouth part has been wrapped in the exoskeleton, so the words he said are also very dull, but he didn't say anything, but walked into the evolution pool again.
And this time, Ye Ren spent a full 25,000 evolution points.
When Ye Ren stood up from the evolution pool again, the layer of black carapace covered by his body was indeed completely different, the dark and shiny carapace was like a layer of heavy metal armor draped on Ye Ren's body, flashing with a dangerous metallic luster, and this layer of hard exoskeleton perfectly protected every fatal point on his body, even the weakest place like the joint, at this moment there is a layer of dark black fascia and fine scaly carapace to protect, there is no place on the body that is exposed, even a pair of eyes are covered by a layer of translucent red crystal plate at the moment, can only see the faint red light from Ye Ren's two eyes.
"Bang!" Ye Ren's two fists suddenly smashed together, and a series of sparks appeared, but the carapace covering Ye Ren's hands showed no signs of damage, and at the same time, the hard and flexible exoskeleton did not affect the movement of Ye Ren's hands at all.
"This is good. β
Feeling the hardness of the exoskeleton, Ye Ren nodded with satisfaction this time, and at the same time shouted towards the ubiquitous system in the space: "System, activate the recessive function." β
"It takes 10,000 evolutionary points to activate the recessive function of genes, are you sure of activation?"
The system asked.
"Sure, let's activate it. Ye Ren was in a good mood now, and happily commanded the system.
"Activate the recessive function. β
The words of the system echoed in the space, and at the same time, Ye Ren's brain was forced to flood with a burst of information.
"I see, is this how it is used?" As the information was digested and understood by Ye Ren, Ye Ren immediately understood how to use this function, only to see Ye Ren's heart move, the pitch-black exoskeleton on his body became thinner little by little, and finally it seemed to melt into his own skin, and the two tentacles on his forehead also slowly retracted, if someone looked at Ye Ren from the appearance now, they would definitely think that he was just an ordinary person.
Then, Ye Ren tried to turn off the recessive function again, and almost instantly, Ye Ren's body was immediately wrapped in a layer of pitch black, and the two tentacles on his forehead also reappeared.
"When the owner activates the implicit function, certain attributes of his own will be reduced. β
Here, Ye Ren was playing with his new abilities, and the system suddenly came out to remind him, but the tone of his speech was still so dull and cold.
"Oh, I know. β
Ye Ren nodded, he actually knew this for a long time, after all, the exoskeleton was included in the skin, although he didn't know how the system did it, but the exoskeleton was gone, and it could be said that the defense power was greatly reduced.
