Chapter 438: Pure Energy Crystallization

Pure energy crystal, is a kind of rare organisms called "energy phage" produced by a special crystal, with extremely strong radioactivity, its internal energy has been completely liquefied after purification, can be directly absorbed by the human body, can also be used as a powerful advanced energy after processing.

The body of the phage is extremely large, with only a mucous membrane on the surface of the body, and no skin, this mucosa can secrete a highly corrosive acidic pus, with this pus, the phage can easily dig through the soil and rock formations, and come and go in them freely.

The nest of the phage is generally selected in the place where there are radioactive ore veins, and the pus secreted from its body surface can not only corrode the rock layer and soil, but also have a catalytic effect on the radioactive ore, so that the decay rate of the elements inside it is greatly accelerated, thus emitting a large amount of radiation.

In the nest of the phagophage, there are a large number of creatures similar to the larvae of the phagophage, but these creatures are not the larvae of the phagophage, but the "worm slave" that the phage directly splits from the body.

Although these "insect slaves" have a small amount of self-awareness, their extremely low intelligence dooms these guys to be reduced to tools for refining pure energy crystals for the energy eater itself.

The phage will dig out the radioactive ores in the veins, and after a simple catalysis, the ores will be handed over to the insect slaves for processing, and the insect slaves will eat away at the radioactive ores little by little, excreting the waste residue from the body, and the purified energy will form a new pure energy crystal in the body of the insect slave.

The more ore that the worm slave eats, the more pure energy crystals in its body will be, and the volume will increase until the worm slave's life comes to an end.

Since it is only a low-level lifeform split from the body of the phage, in addition to the basic life support system, there are only organs left in the worm slave to purify ore, and the lifespan of a worm slave will not exceed ninety days at most, and within these ninety days, a worm slave can purify more than a hundred tons of ore.

After the death of the old group of worm slaves, the energy eaters will split into a new batch of worm slaves, and these new worm slaves will devour the corpses of the old worm slaves along with the pure energy crystals in their bodies, and then continue the work of the old worm slaves.

Energy phages collect pure energy crystals, not simply as food, but also for survival - although the mutated creature is huge, it is in fact a completely metamorphosed and developing organism, and the "slug" form of the phage is only a juvenile energy phage, a juvenile energy phage, only after accumulating enough pure energy crystals, can use the energy provided by these crystals to complete the transformation into adulthood.

Once the metamorphosis is complete, the adult energy phage will become one of the most dangerous creatures in the wasteland.

……

……

This is the end of the information about the Pure Energy Crystals and the monster called the "Energy Eater", and there is no mention of what an adult Energy Eater looks like.

Only then did Qi Lin know that this energy phant insect was actually just a larva, and those guys who he mistook for "larvae" turned out to be just insect slaves isolated from the energy eater.

No wonder Qi Lin threw out the pure energy crystal, these insect slaves would fight so fiercely - in their simple thinking, the appearance of pure energy crystals means that the lifespan of the same kind has come to an end, out of instinct, they will inevitably choose to devour it, if at this time, there is no control of the body of the energy phagous, the scene will instantly fall into chaos - all the insect slaves want to devour this pure energy crystal that suddenly appeared, but there is only one pure energy crystal.

At this time, driven by instinct, they chose the simplest and most direct way: killing.

Although these insect slaves are unable to absorb the radiation energy for their own use, because they were once part of the energy phage itself, the radiation energy has an unparalleled attraction for these insect slaves - they are like the zombies that appeared in the literature of the old days, although the digestive organs have lost their function, although the swallowed pieces of meat will continue to accumulate in the stomach until the whole stomach is broken, but their brains still have only one thought, that is, to constantly seek fresh flesh and blood, Then swallow it.

The same is true for insect slaves, except that the ore they swallow will eventually turn into something called "pure energy crystallization".

Looking at the large pile of pure energy crystals in front of him, Qi Lin suddenly realized that this was probably the entire inventory of this energy eater for so many years, and the value of the energy eater body was probably not as good as this pile of pure energy crystals.

Qi Lin looked at the pure energy crystals in this place, didn't think much about it, immediately stripped off his clothes, and then sat cross-legged on the ground, his upper body leaned back slightly, leaning on the edge of the ore pile that Qi Lin had piled up by himself, and finally, he took a fist-sized pure energy crystal, crushed it, and let the liquid energy essence in it pour on his body.

Even though the Concentrated Energy Vortex spun rapidly, the energy essence that poured on Qi Lin's body was instantly absorbed by his skin and gathered into the Concentrated Energy Vortex......

With the first experience, Qi Lin could already be regarded as familiar with the second time - although the process was still painful, but in the face of the extreme desire for great strength, this pain was simply insignificant.

Level 5 Evolver, it's a matter of course......

When Qi Lin opened his eyes and exhaled that turbid breath, the crust-like blood scabs on his body instantly turned into powder and flew out in all directions.

Qi Lin didn't rush to open his brain to check the panel after he was promoted to a fifth-level evolutionary, but thoughtfully raised his right hand, stretched it forward, and spread his fingers.

All of this was done under the guidance of the subconscious, and at the moment when Qi Lin's consciousness was connected to the shaped energy vortex in his body, the speed of the concentrated energy vortex immediately accelerated by nearly double, and then, a condensed cloud of violent energy was spit out by the concentrated energy vortex, reaching Qi Lin's right arm, and spraying out from his palm!

"Boom!!"

With a loud bang, the entire underground cavern shook violently.

After the tremor was over, Qi Lin looked towards the place where he had just launched the violent energy, only to see that on top of the hard frozen soil, a huge cave with a radius of three meters and a depth of more than fifteen meters appeared!

"Hiss......"

Restoring his right arm, which had been broken and misaligned due to the huge recoil force, Qi Lin walked to the edge of the cave that he had blasted out of.

I saw that the frozen soil at the edge of the cave had turned into charred and fragile ashes, and with a light touch of my finger, it immediately turned into powder.

"Is this legendary...... Humanoid self-propelled cannon? ”
