1073 Genetic contamination
Looking at the needle bird on the ground that had entered a state of malaise again, Zhang Xintai and the three of them were trembling slightly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Today, they see too many unbelievable things.
First, a four-star evolutionary has a piece of spatial equipment that contains equipment up to the blue level. Then the four-star evolutionary showed his profession as a craftsman, and he could turn waste into treasure. If they could accept this, then the fact that such a person, who should be a treasure for any organization, should be thrown into this dark mine, is incomprehensible in itself.
There was also a situation that they thought they would die today, but it was easily resolved by this person, making them feel that this man who was younger than them might not be just a four-star evolutionary, so his entry became even more incredible.
But what really scared them was these four mutant beings.
When they appeared, they were only level two, which was nothing to them. But after eating some meat, they became Level 3, and now, they are evolving towards Level 4!
The three of them had never seen anything like this, and although their bodies were not small, how could they swallow a person in one bite?
There was really only one bite, and then more than a hundred catties and nearly two hundred catties of four-star evolutionaries were swallowed into their stomachs, and then in just a few minutes, they entered the state of evolution again.
At one point, the three of them even had some delusions, had they been away from the ground for too long to keep up with the normal rhythm?
Ye Zhongming looked at his four needle birds intently, because he found that this time the evolution was a little different compared to before.
The first is that the size of the needle bird has become larger again, now they are squatting on the ground, the queen bee is about the same height as Ye Zhongming, although the other three male needlebirds are shorter, but the body lines are more smooth and hard, and those weapons located all over the body, such as hard beaks, barbs, wings, and claws, have become sharper and sharper.
The second is that they all have completely new features on their bodies. Where their heads and torsos are connected, organs similar to gills appear, but no matter how Ye Zhongming looks, these organs don't seem to be used for breathing, but for ...... Storage of weapons.
The gills are made up of strips of bone needles about 20 centimeters in length.
Is this to protect the neck from injury? Ye Zhongming felt that it would not be so simple, but what was the specific use, he could only wait for the needle bird to wake up and ask through spiritual contact.
Finally, and the most noticeable change, is the gray-brown fluff that grows all over the body.
This change made Ye Zhongming scratch his head even more, he didn't know what these fluffs were doing, and he couldn't even figure out whether these appearances were just a change incidental to evolution, or another functional organ.
It took significantly longer to evolve from Level 3 to Level 4 than it took to evolve from Level 2 to Level 3 before, and after waiting for nearly ten minutes, the four needle birds woke up one after another.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the ferocity of these four needle birds was revealed, and when he looked at people with compound eyes, that kind of coldness seemed to be about to attack you in the next moment, it felt very bad, Ye Zhongming didn't feel anything as the master, but Zhang Xintai and the three of them couldn't do it, even if they were now at the same level of evolution as the four needle birds, but it was like being targeted by a powerful monster, so they could only endure this psychological discomfort.
Ye Zhongming silently communicated with this war beast on the spiritual level, and finally knew the information he wanted to get.
Those bony gills are really weapons, bone spurs that can be regenerated and can be fired.
This undoubtedly makes up for the Needlebird's ranged attack power.
And those fluff all over his body, even if Ye Zhongming didn't ask, he knew what it was for.
Protection! Protective fluff with the ability to change color, to be exact!
These fluffs have the ability to change color with the environment.
Is this a change caused by getting genes from that stone cow?
This seemed to be the case, but this kind of ability, which was similar to plundering, still frightened Ye Zhongming.
He thought of a word that was taboo in peacetime – genetic contamination.
Human beings have gradually advanced in science, and their understanding of themselves has reached a point where they have touched the roots. In this case, in order to ensure the purity of the race, governments of various countries are working hard to prevent human beings from being contaminated by foreign genes.
Many ordinary people themselves have this concept, such as psychological distrust and rejection of genetically modified technology that has not yet been proven by time.
And now, more serious 'pollution' has happened in front of Ye Zhongming's eyes, and if someone must be blamed for all this, then it is Ye Zhongming himself, who supports Liu Zhenghong's research in this area.
Looking at the needle birds that were flying in the sky and constantly asking themselves if the other three humans could eat them, Ye Zhongming guessed in a trance, if the needle birds kept eating humans, would they one day become similar to human beings?
Spit out a mouthful of turbid breath in his chest, Ye Zhongming let himself not think about this, now that the whole world is under the 'reign of terror' of roulette, it is a bit hypocritical to think about this, this problem may become very serious, but that is not known how many years later.
Let the four guys return to the Demon Hive first, Zhang Xintai and the others felt more comfortable, but it still felt amazing to see such a large four flying mutant beings enter a small beast pool type equipment.
A few people entered the cave, and after walking for a while, the three of them said to Ye Zhongming that the front was the cave they were talking about, Ye Zhongming nodded, and asked them to go back outside and wait for him, and after seeing them leave, he took out the equipment from the space equipment and put it on, summoned two elemental spirits, and dived into the cave after opening the shield of the black halo.
As soon as he entered, Ye Zhongming smelled an unpleasant smell, this smell can only be formed when many mutated beings gather together, it is the smell of body odor and putrefined food plus feces, and those who have not smelled it will never know how unbearable it is.
Ye Zhongming did not venture deeper, but observed with the help of the faint light of the spar in the cave.
Because he knew that life here had a protective color, he looked very carefully.
At this glance, even he couldn't help but become quieter and quieter.
In the cave, on the walls, densely packed with I don't know how many monsters are lying on their stomachs, these monsters are perfectly integrated with the surrounding environment, if there are really careless people, maybe they won't find them when they really walk in.
It's just that now it may be that these monsters are not aware of the danger, they are not very quiet, and from time to time there is a life that moves, or changes positions, and even chirps in a low voice.
At the same time, Ye Zhongming also saw the stone beads, which were among the gray rocks, visible to the naked eye, perhaps because of the nest, the stone beads were densely packed in the rocks, and there were at least tens of thousands of them.
Ye Zhongming relieved himself, quietly observed for a while again, and after confirming that there was no more powerful existence than himself here, he stood out from the shadows.
