Chapter Two Hundred and Eight: Devourer
Three first-level battle mechs, like three super harvesters, sped through the grass overgrown with zombies, leaving behind a stump and severed arm, dark blood gathered into a river, and the pungent smell of blood ascended to the sky.
"Wow, what a powerful mecha, with a simple wave of your hand, the zombies fall down in pieces like wheat, this efficiency is not much slower than those armored artillery!"
"Yes, I envy those three lucky guys that they can become mecha pilots, how nice it would be for me!"
"There are still opportunities, didn't the city lord say it, there will be more and more mecha in the future, and there will naturally be more and more pilots needed, as long as we work hard, maybe one day we will be driving the mecha."
"That's right, if I can survive this time, I will definitely study and practice my mecha operation skills desperately, and next time, I must become a mecha pilot!"
"Hahaha, me too!"
The survivors were so hot that they couldn't wait to control the mecha in person and rush to the front.
Driven by the three war machines, their blood boiled even more, and their somewhat tired bodies seemed to be injected with vitality, and their movements were much lighter.
The shouts of killing, the roars, still continued.
At this time, Li Wenbin, who was in mid-air, stared into the distance with his eyes fixed.
There, he saw the figure of the Evolution Zombie, the power zombie running wildly on the streets, the creeper zombie jumping between the buildings, the agile zombie as agile as the wind......
The real opponent, appeared.
"Strengtheners, Evolver troops, prepare to meet the enemy! The armored artillery unit strengthens the vitality suppression and maximizes the advance speed of the evolved zombies. ”
Li Wenbin's voice echoed on the battlefield.
Hearing this, the reinforcement and evolutionary troops, who had been waiting for a long time, moved out one after another. The number of these two troops is not large, but they are all elites, and they are mainly responsible for evolving zombies.
"Come on, it's time for you to play."
After the Strengtheners and Evolutionaries joined the battlefield, Li Wenbin gave another order.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The roar of the spear and shield warriors, the steel armor and spears reverberated with a sonorous sound, and they, like a torrent of steel, rushed towards the zombie horde.
Behind the spear and shield warriors are hundreds of elemental mages, wielding their staffs and unleashing brilliant and deadly spells, like a storm that sweeps across the land, wantonly harvesting the lives of zombies.
On the other side, the archers lined up in several phalanxes, shooting with bows in an orderly manner, and the flying arrows formed a black arrow curtain like a dark cloud, covering a large area of zombies.
Whew! ~
The blue wolf roared, and the wolf cavalry was like a cold blade, wantonly killing in and out of the zombie horde, bringing up countless flying heads and blood along the way.
Compared with the survivors, they are the real battlefield killers, they are born to fight!
In the entire battlefield, Li Wenbin is the only one who has not yet been put into battle, he is waiting, waiting for the enemy who needs him to make a move, and deserves his shot.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, a special connection fluctuated, which was sensed by Li Wenbin.
That's the breath of the Devourer!
Devourer, another pet of Li Wenbin, was recovered when the military evacuated Yungui City, and since leaving it in Yungui City to absorb the zombie corpses, Li Wenbin has been so busy that he almost forgot about this guy.
Approaching Yungui City, after the distance was shortened, the double convenience sensed.
Li Wenbin immediately called up the Devourer attribute panel, which was almost forgotten.
——
Unnamed (Special)
Race: Unknown
Attribute: Full (None)
Rank: First Order Peak
Talents: Devour, Quick Adaptation
Loyalty: 100
Synopsis: This is a magical creature with a future full of uncertainty.
——
Compared to before, the Devourer has hardly changed, that is, the level has become the peak of the first order, and it may break through to the second order at any time.
Li Wenbin transmitted his consciousness and asked the Devourer to come in his direction.
The distance between the two was not too far, and soon, the Devourer entered Li Wenbin's line of sight.
"I'm going, so old?"
When he saw the Devourer's current appearance, Li Wenbin was a little dumbfounded.
Because it's so big!
It is simply a mountain of meat, more than 100 meters high, with a diameter of almost 200 meters, which is very conspicuous in the urban area where there are many buildings.
It is like a large lump of moving flesh, with a yellowish color with a faint black, without any organs such as eyes, nose, mouth, etc., and it walks like a rolling water bag.
The huge size of the devourer brought a huge weight, whether it was a high-rise building or a zombie as small as an ant, it had no intention of detouring, and directly ran over it.
Along the way, the building collapsed, and countless zombies were crushed into pulp, which then became part of its body.
“…… Evolutionary ......"
A stream of information, sometimes vague, sometimes clear, and intermittent, was transmitted to Li Wenbin's mind.
He understood that after devouring corpses for such a long time, the current devourer had reached the threshold of evolution, and there was a possibility of a breakthrough at any time.
For a strange creature like the Devourer, evolving from the peak of the first order to the second order is equivalent to a carp jumping over the dragon gate.
If you succeed, you will soar to the sky.
If you fail, you will be reduced to a mortal thing or even a waste, or you will completely disappear at the worst, and you will be destroyed in form and spirit.
"Evolve? Well, there are a lot of zombie corpses here right now, and they can also give you some energy if necessary. ”
Li Wenbin thought about it for a moment and decided to let the Devourer evolve on the spot.
He instigated the Lightning' to spread its wings and came above the Devourer.
After the devourer received Li Wenbin's order, he did not have any objections to the ignorant and simple intelligence, and when he no longer suppressed it, he relied on pure instinct and began to make a breakthrough.
Gollum~
The sound of water was ringing, it was the energy combination in the devourer's body that was collapsing, merging, purifying.
The Devourer relied on the corpses of devouring zombies to accumulate energy, and when it grew to the peak of the first order, it devoured zombie corpses not 100,000 but 70,000 or 80,000.
With so much energy being swallowed up, there will inevitably be certain impurities, and the first step in this evolution is to purify and smelt these 'impurities' to leave the essence.
Li Wenbin could see very clearly that as the evolution of the Devourer began, its size was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon, it shrank from 100 meters tall to 90 meters.
Eighty meters ......
Seventy meters......
Soon, the size of the Devourer shrank to forty meters in height and about fifty meters in diameter, which was still huge, but much smaller than before.
At this time, the Devourer looked small, but the weight was no worse than before, or even heavier, and the essence of the whole body was concentrated and tighter.
At this point, the first step of evolution is also completed, this step is very simple, basically all devourers can complete it, it is just the length of time.
However, the next step is not so easy, this step is called - shaping!
Plasticity, in short, is to shape the direction, shape, type, etc. that you want to evolve, for most intelligent creatures, this step is actually very simple, because intelligent creatures can think, and they will automatically associate.
However, Devourers are different, they have almost no intelligence, and all their actions are guided by instinct.
So, they don't think about what they want to evolve into, what kind of race. The end result is evolutionary failure, or random evolution.
That's why devourers are called 'creatures with the most potential and the least potential'.
