Chapter 13 Liquid Essence

How powerful is a cell?

Cheng Ming didn't know it before, but now he understands it, but the comment is only four words: unimaginable.

A lower food cell, a mountain forest, three months, when these three elements are gathered, the back mountain has undergone earth-shaking changes.

It's as if I've suddenly shifted to a fantasy style, with vegetation and animals trying to mutate and grow in all sorts of exaggerated directions.

Cheng Ming stood on the roof of the cabin, looking at the few piglets rolling in the mud below, with a smile on his face.

"Is your physique critical? Let me help you. The hunters who have recently entered the mountains seem to have found a pattern of hunting, so you should be careful! ”

With a flick of his fingers, three drops of golden-red liquid flew out and sank into the brains of the three little pigs.

The three little pigs were shaken, and their bodies began to swell rapidly, their skin became hard and thick, and the color of their fur gradually turned red. As the pig's trotters continued to stomp on the ground, the mane on his back shot out like sharp arrows, and two thick fangs protruded from the corners of his mouth, growing half a meter long in the blink of an eye.

The cute little eyes disappeared, the pupils turned wild yellow, the huge pig's nose exhaled deeply, and the air flow smashed the ground into the earth and rocks.

The red-haired pig is here!

Three monsters suddenly appeared among the playmates, and the other piglets were so frightened that they fled back to the cabin.

Cheng Ming waved his hand: "Go, don't gather together." I remember that the vegetation has spread to a few hills in the southwest, so let's go and be the king of the mountain! ”

The red-haired pig snorted twice, turned around and ran away as if he understood.

"Let me think about what else is coming, the ingots breed quickly, I don't need to worry about it, the other species are almost enough, so get a new one?"

Cheng Ming touched his chin, beckoned to Lin Zi, and said to himself: "Nearby carnivores, come one!" ”

A few minutes later, the bushes shook, and a bear rushed out in a daze.

It didn't control its speed and fell on its heels, it got up and shook its head, and ran this way again.

"Yo, how did you recruit a bear cub?" Cheng Ming was a little strange, but he didn't care.

Since the establishment of the circulation system in Houshan, the plant growth rate is unusually rapid under the stimulation of food cells. The abundance of vegetation attracts not only a large number of insects and herbivores, but also many hungry carnivores.

Now it's attracting bears.

The food cells are extremely domineering, almost all substances can be devoured, and the transformed things are random and random, and sometimes even Cheng Ming himself can't figure it out.

In the sea perception induction, the diffusion diameter of the food cells has exceeded 100 kilometers, and the concentration gradually fades with the mountain as the core.

Cheng Ming believes that in no more than a year, the peculiar situation in Houshan will also spread to the two provinces of Shandong and Henan.

He hugged the bear and touched the dark fur, the golden light flashed in his hand, and three drops of liquid were submerged in his body.

"These are the last three drops of the day, let's see how far you can evolve!"

Putting the bear on the ground, Cheng Ming took three steps back.

The bear didn't seem to understand what was going on, and just as he was about to move forward, his body trembled suddenly, and then quickly swelled.

Muscles grew layer upon layer, bones were forced to stretch, and a series of clicking sounds were made, but the bear's mouth was wide open but no breath came out. Its whole body was like blowing up a balloon, and in just a few tens of seconds, it swelled from a bear less than knee-high to a giant bear five meters tall.

The giant bear is dark, its fur is shiny, its huge muscles are looming, just sitting there gives people a sense of oppression, and a purple horn on the top of its head is half a meter long, shimmering and reflecting in the sun, and it is extremely sharp.

"A horned bear?"

Cheng Ming was a little surprised, beckoned, and obediently lay down with a kick.

Pressed his palm to its horn, felt the unique cell variant, and patted the giant bear's body.

"The unicorn is very hard, not inferior to steel at all, yes, and harvests another cell form. The muscles are also too hard, I'm afraid they can't be eaten, but that's fine. Recently, the hunting team of the rich boy seems to have increased, and such a mountain guard god is also needed. The level is tentatively set at three, so there should be no problem. You live in the back mountains, don't go too far, and if you see a team of more than 500 people entering the mountains, take shelter. ”

After speaking, he waved his hand, and the giant bear shook his head and stood up, walking towards the back mountain step by step.

"Let's stop here today, the liquid essence has been depleted, and there is still something to deal with in a while!"

Liquid essence, the product of essence gas transformation.

After many studies, Cheng Ming was basically certain that this thing was an evolutionary elixir for all living beings.

In terms of capture level, every drop can forcibly raise a creature by one level, but the direction of evolution is beyond Cheng Ming's control. It seemed that there were countless forks in the road with every step forward, and there were often evolutionary species that made him laugh and cry.

It's like the sow he kept in the cabin, which would have evolved into a breeding system.

Now, as long as there is enough food, it can lay eggs like a hen, giving a litter of piglets every few days.

However, thanks to it, there is no shortage of sources for the red-haired pigs in the back mountains.

The same goes for plants.

After many experiments, Cheng Ming imagined that it could be eaten directly, and it tasted like noodles, which has never appeared. On the contrary, it is all kinds of strange and strange, and it keeps popping up.

In particular, there is a willow tree, only the leaves have evolved, and when the wind blows, the leaves are blown off, it is like a rain of arrows, which is extremely lethal.

Therefore, Houshan has almost become Cheng Ming's experimental field, and the danger here has increased more than tenfold.

Therefore, if there is no smell of Cheng Ming on the hunters, they will basically have no return.

The refining of liquid essence is difficult.

In terms of quantity, if a healthy adult needs to consume energy for a day to metabolize normally, it can provide Cheng Ming with a wisp of essence.

Then if you want to condense into a drop of liquid essence, you need five hundred wisps of essence.

Even with the current diffusion area of the following cells, what can be provided to Cheng Ming every day is only about 5 to 7 drops.

If you want more, you need to eat a lot of food.

It's a pity that it is still an important stage of development, and there is no extra food to eat and drink.

If you consume a large amount of food every day, the calories will be absorbed by the cells, which will promote the evolution of cells little by little.

Sun Jiuniang may not feel it herself, but in the past three months, her physique has indeed improved.

Cheng Ming artificially inhibits the autonomous evolution of the lower cells, and the cells will divide and develop horizontally, replacing all the cells in the parasitic body, and eventually producing evil consequences.

Dong Hua, Zhang Dadao and the others have completely lost their minds and turned into Cheng Ming's clones.

Their group of people, coupled with the malicious snooping on the inn in the past three months, and the evil guests who appeared inexplicably and clearly showed hostility, made the number of Cheng Ming's clones break through the fifty mark.

Cheng Ming didn't like this feeling very much, but unfortunately he couldn't control it.

As long as he is still absorbing the energy of the parasite, he cannot control the parasite and is completely replaced by cells.

This feeling is very strange, it seems that a person suddenly has 50 more bodies, and needs to absorb 50 times more external information every day, 50 people use one brain, there is no systematic planning, the processing of information is chaotic, and at the beginning of the period, Cheng Ming's brain is about to explode.

Fortunately, he also has an auxiliary system on him.

This kind of thing, which feeds exclusively on information, is clearly a good hand at processing information.

With the assistance of the system and strict prioritization, Cheng Ming gradually adapted to the current situation.

But even so, this incident made Cheng Ming feel uneasy and firmly remember this lesson.

----

The sky gradually darkened, and the forest path was silent.

Liu Erha and a few brothers happily walked home, they made a lot of money today, and they didn't drink enough wine, so they all discussed going home and getting together again.

The silver is white, but the eyes are red.

The money they earn, some people look at it and blush.

No, on the road they had to pass, seventeen or eighteen ragged men with swords in hand lay in ambush.

"Big brother, they're coming!" The spy whispered.

"Okay, brothers, be vigilant, start quickly for a while, be ruthless with the knife, retreat immediately after grabbing the silver, don't be nostalgic, this place is too evil, in case the smell of blood attracts fierce beasts, none of us can escape!"

"Don't worry, big brother, the brothers have all instructed you!"

The voice was low, and more than a dozen pairs of eyes were staring at the intersection, holding weapons tightly in their hands, ready to jump out at any time.

Walking into the forest, Liu Erha also became vigilant and instructed: "Brothers, be careful, I heard that there are many fierce beasts coming down from the back mountain, run to the nearby forest to hide, don't be hurt by them!" ”

"Brother, you are too careful, we red-haired pigs can be hacked to death, let alone other beasts. It's all right! ”

Another said: "I think brother, you should say be careful of robbers, we have leaked money today, and it is difficult to guarantee that there are no red eyes." I've heard that a lot of refugees have come from Shanxi and Henan recently, and these people dare to do anything for money, so let's be careful! ”

Another person said: "How did I hear that I came from Liaodong?" There was another disaster and famine, many people died, and the Jurchens came to loot the grain again, and the government didn't care, and I heard that there was a mutiny in one place, and the trouble was quite serious. ”

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't know, it's a mutiny in Jizhen, I heard that there has been no pay for more than half a year, and the soldiers are dying of hunger, so don't you go crazy?"

"This Chongzhen year, natural disasters and man-made disasters continue, it is difficult to live peacefully, or this cross slope is a good place, a scene of wind and rain, and the prey is so valuable. If it weren't too far from town, I would have made my home directly on the cross slope! ”

Several people chatted as they slowly approached the ambush site.
