Chapter 17: Breaking the Two Locks

Heavily armed task force soldiers cautiously advance on the third floor of the aquarium.

The design of this aquarium is in the shape of a "concave" and is divided into two areas, left and right.

The building has three floors, the first and second floors are for spectators, and the third floor is for the aquarium staff.

Dressed in combat uniform, Li Xingtian looked at the huge water tank under his feet, the left tank was empty, and the water tank on the right was strangely filled with the corpses of various fish.

He looked up and saw that the first floor had been flooded, and there were huge fish monsters stranded on the water half a meter high. His gaze kept searching, but finally he couldn't find the shadow of his target.

A combat squad of more than twenty people walked downstairs. The stairs and corridors were empty, and Colonel Lee glanced thoughtfully at the tattered clothes floating on the water downstairs, and those people were afraid that they had all fallen into the mouth of the fish monster.

The combat team quickly reached the second floor, and suddenly, Colonel Lee felt the movement of the team stop.

He looked at his teammates beside him, but what caught his eyes was a dreamy figure dozens of meters long and glowing purple fluorescent.

That's the goal of their mission - box jellyfish, but unlike in the photos, these jellyfish are unusually large and the colors are unusually gorgeous.

They dragged purple tentacles dozens of meters long, and they wandered gracefully in the tank, like a dream.

Colonel Lee's originally hard eyes gradually became confused, as if he saw his wife, who died after a car accident, and his daughter, who was alienated from him over trivial matters.

Wrong! Not right!

He struggled violently, the strength of the seventh order did not help him much, and the powerful combat body ability did not help the predicament in front of him.

All he can rely on is the strong will that he has honed in countless battles over the past ten years in the army.

Finally, his eyes gradually returned to clarity, but breaking free from the illusion obviously made him consume a lot, he gasped violently, and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his right hand.

Just now, he seemed to have really seen his wife, and even touched the temperature on her face.

After recovering his senses, he looked around and noticed that his teammates were walking downstairs with a blank expression.

In the huge tank, the box jellyfish are still swimming elegantly, and they are still releasing more and more intense dreamy purple fluorescence into the surroundings.

After putting on the film-type gas mask, Colonel Li quickly summoned his battle body, and a black light knife appeared in his hand, and his body was also covered with a layer of black light that looked very thick.

Under the black light, his strength, speed, and defense are all comparable to those of the corresponding ability evolvers of the same level.

With a little bit of strength, he broke through the glass of the huge tank and slashed at the nearest jellyfish.

Countless purple tentacles quickly wrapped around his body, releasing neurotoxins without any stopping effect.

What they didn't know was that for this operation, the entire Hongjing base had been preparing for three days, not only wasting countless resources to capture some high-level demons and helping the task force members complete the second evolution, but also concentrating on the research and development of combat equipment such as super infrasonic instruments and membrane-type anti-virus combat suits.

The moment Li Xingtian broke free from the illusion they had constructed, their fate was sealed.

A few minutes later, the battle was over. When Li Xingtian dragged out of the water tank with huge jellyfish corpses, his teammates were already standing outside waiting for him with shameful faces.

Another day later, inside a villa at the base of Iwajo.

In the tub of a bathroom, a figure sits in it, filling its mouth with white pieces of meat.

This is already Gu Feng's sixth evolution, this time is a little special than the previous ones, this time he is going to open the second gene lock in his brain.

Moreover, this time he did not devour new abilities, but chose to perform a secondary evolution of extreme speed and great power.

He glanced at the state board in his mind:

Level: One lock and nine orders

Bloodline: Devourer

Primary Ability: Devour

Secondary Abilities: Shadow Stealth (60), Extreme Speed (50), Great Force (50), Devouring (80), Camouflage (30), Severed Limb Regeneration (100), Super Digestion (30), Energy Barrier (60)

Ability points: 178

More than a hundred more ability points than before was almost all he had gained in the past few days, and of course, the harvest also included the new ability of the energy barrier, which he had acquired while wandering around the Iwa'an Zoo the night before, and the rare dragon turtle that had survived in the monster-ridden city for a week had broken his alloy war knife.

As the ability points rapidly decreased, a strange and powerful force suddenly appeared in Gu Feng's mind, and then rushed to all parts of his body.

At some point, there was a shudder in his muscular body. Then, he simply fainted.

Damn, it's too big......

Gu Feng only had time to let out such a wail in his mind.

Gu Feng, who was in a coma, didn't know that if it weren't for the thousands of base flesh placed on his side, he would really be done this time.

The Shadow Leopard's Extreme Speed and the Giant Power from the Gold Eater Ant King are almost the best of the same type, with their speed increasing by eight times and strength by twenty times, respectively, while those ordinary speed and strength-type evolutionaries, such as Xiao Wu and Lao Liu before, only have two to three times the increase in ability.

The muscles were torn apart in the rolling, the bones as white as jade crackled and crackled, and the water in the bathtub had long been stained blood red.

Under this kind of severe pain that can kill the strong-willed special forces, Gu Feng's subconscious mind decisively took over the control of the body, causing the main consciousness of the body to fall into a deep sleep temporarily.

In a coma, his fleshy arm stretched out to the suitcase next to the bath, filling his mouth with the curtains of the flesh placed there.

Soon, a box of based meat was emptied.

The arm paused and reached for an unopened box a little farther away, the surface of which was made of a special fabric made of synthetic fibers that had been easily torn open like a blank sheet of paper.

With the addition of massive material nutrients, Gu Feng's evolution has become more drastic, and new organs and muscle tissues are rapidly forming.

These muscles and organs are not part of the human body, and at this moment, in order to support the powerful abilities that this body is about to bring, they are naturally present in various parts that are suitable for them.

Two hours later, Gu Feng opened his eyes from the bed with difficulty.

Everything in front of him is clearer, this is the most intuitive feeling of every evolutionary who has just opened a new genetic lock, and every opening of the genetic lock must be accompanied by a great strengthening of the senses.

Although his way of opening the gene lock is different from that of ordinary people, it is more rough and direct, but the feeling after opening the gene lock is the same.

But what the hell is this feeling of limp and powerlessness......

He cast his mind on the state panel in his mind:

Level: 2 Locks 1st Order (Locked)

Bloodline: Devourer

Primary Ability: Devour

Secondary Abilities: Shadow Stealth (60), Extreme Speed +1 (100), Greater Force +1 (100), Devouring Bite (80), Camouflage (30), Severed Limb Rebirth (100), Super Digestion (30), Energy Barrier (60)

Ability points: 78

Discover the genetic map of the Adept

Discover the ability to devour/destroy

The evolution was successful, but he couldn't remember what the process was like.

Also, what the hell is this state of lockdown.

He felt the state in his body, but he could only feel the power of one lock of the ninth order, and the second gene lock seemed to have never been opened.

Gu Feng slowly raised his arm, feeling the powerful power brewing in his hand, and wanted to strike it out with all his might.

At this moment, an indescribable sense of crisis quickly descended on him, as if to warn him clearly that using more than one lock of force at this time would lead to fatal danger for him.

His face changed for a moment, and he finally slowly lowered his arm.
