Chapter Twenty-Four: Picking Up Cheap Professionals?

There are many types of evolutionary beings, with different abilities, and the advanced characteristics and signs of the evolutionaries in each line are also different, and even different types in the same lineage are different. Therefore, it is not easy to determine exactly what level an evolutionary is.

The description of the advancement of some major types of evolutionaries in the "Illustrated Book of Mutant Organisms (Tentative Edition)" is mainly based on the survey records of evolutionaries in the army and the observation and experiment data of some volunteers. Although it is not comprehensive, the conclusions reached are credible.

The illustrated book provides only a brief description of the evolutionary characteristics of the four major evolutionary lines:

Consider the strength of a normal adult male before the destruction as 1 unit, which can lift a weight of about 100 kilograms.

Flesh and Blood:

At the first level, the evolutionary ability of the type to which it belongs is prominent, generally reaching 10-20 times that of ordinary people, depending on individual differences.

At the intermediate level, the ability of this type is increased to about 10-20 times that of the primary level, and at the same time, the other physical qualities are greatly improved, and they all reach the initial level of other types.

At the high level, the ability of this type is increased to 10-20 times that of the middle level, and the other qualities are increased to the middle level of other types, and the physique will change according to the type of evolution......

Example: Strength type, initial 10 times the force, muscle expansion. Medium-level 100x strength, speed defense and other improvements, muscle expansion is reduced, and flexibility is increased. High-level 1000 times power, other attributes increased. It is characterized by its huge size, with an average height of more than 2 meters.

Elemental system:

At the first level, it can easily cast this type of Elemental Evolution Ability Attack, dealing Elemental Damage.

At mid-tier, it can cast the derivative ability of this type of ability.

At high level, through the precise control of this type of ability, the elements can undergo qualitative changes, and powerful elemental mutation attacks can be carried out.

Examples: lightning type, primary discharge, electric shock. Medium-level can use electromagnetic force to carry out electromagnetic attacks. Higher-tier plasma balls can be cast with fine, strong control over the elements.

Psychiatry:

At the initial level, the mental power is released, which can interfere with or guide the target's spirit.

At the intermediate level, psychic power can invade the target spirit for direct influence.

At higher level, unknown.

For example, the primary stage can affect the target's mood and interfere with normal thinking. The intermediate level can induce the target to hallucinate, auditory hallucinations. No higher-level spiritual evolutionaries have yet been discovered.

Energy System:

At the beginning level, you can simply use the Yuan Force, and use the Yuan Force to produce different effects according to different types of evolution. In the state of Yuan Force Explosion, the ability is strengthened and the Yuan Force consumption is accelerated.

At the intermediate level, the total amount of Yuan Force increases, the density increases, and the application level of Yuan Force increases, and the Yuan Force can be released. In the state of Yuan Force Explosion, a unique symbol of the energy system, Yuan Pattern, appears.

At the high level, it can accurately control the elemental force, and the nature of the elemental force changes according to the type of evolutionary, and the evolutionary ability of the type is enhanced. The second pair of Yuan Patterns appears in the Yuan Force Burst state.

For example, in the therapeutic type, at the initial stage, contact and transmission of elemental force near the wound of the injured person can promote healing, and the recovery speed of the wound can be increased by 5-20 times, depending on the strength of the evolutionary ability and the factors of the injured person. The intermediate level can directly release the therapeutic element force to promote wound recovery at a certain distance, and the recovery speed varies from 50 to 200 times. High-level can heal multiple targets at the same time, and the Yuan Force is transformed into highly resilient life energy, which can almost bring the dead back to life.

Due to the wide variety of types of evolution and the different characteristics of advanced systems, no common law has been found, so it will not be listed for the time being.

The above introduction to the characteristics of the evolutionary hierarchy may have many deficiencies due to the small number of samples used for reference, and will be continuously improved in the future, please refer to the latest version

The dividing line of the Illustrated Book of Mutant Organisms (Tentative Edition).

"Squeak" Li Gang, who was cooking instant noodles with an alcohol stove, heard a piercing scream, which should have come from outside the mall. He immediately turned off the stove and ran outside.

From a skylight, Li Gang went up to the top of the mall, which he found when he walked around in the past two days, and it was really rare to find a skylight when walking in such a dark place. Although he discovered this skylight, Li Gang didn't come out often, because some of the raptor mutant beasts in the air were even more terrifying. If you are caught and take a dive, it will be miserable.

Crouching on the edge of the roof of the mall, he looked down to see a giant snake covered in blue-gray scales and a giant black rat facing each other.

The blue-gray giant snake was about thirteen or fourteen meters in size, its body was thicker than an oil barrel, and its high head was raised and it spat out black letters from time to time and hissed in warning. And the big rat on the other side is not a good type, the body is 5 meters long, plus the tail is nearly ten meters, and the whole body is covered with iron thorn-like hairs are standing up at this moment, baring the front teeth and glaring at the giant snake.

Although there are no two mutant beasts on the illustrated book, they are either recognized by the blind, or giant rats and snakes.

Looking at this situation, it should be that one of them broke into the other's territory, that is, here, there is this kind of confrontation. Is this a territorial dispute? Or is it predation? Whatever it was, their presence explains why the mall is so clean and free of a single mutated creature. It's one of them who managed to use a certain place around here as a nest and eat up all the mutated creatures nearby.

Mutants aren't patient creatures, at least not these two. The first to attack was the serpent, its massive body writhing rapidly, leaving an afterimage on the ground and swooping down on the giant rat.

"Squeak," the giant rat screamed, and its huge body rose from the ground, and it took the first step to bite the snake's neck. The giant snake discovered the intention of the giant rat, and the snake twisted its body, and the neck of the giant rat was bitten by the giant snake that suddenly changed direction.

As the serpent bit the giant rat, its two fangs pierced the rat's tough fur and injected deadly venom into it. Then the whole snake quickly rolled the giant rat up, trying to crush its bones.

The poison injected into the body caused the giant rat to go berserk, opening its mouth and frantically nibbling on the snake body close to its mouth with its sharp giant teeth.

The strangulation force of the "Gurgle" giant snake was extremely huge, and the body of the giant rat that was entangled made a crisp sound of broken bones.

The potential for an outbreak at a critical moment is very huge, the giant rat gnawed the scales of the giant snake with its fangs, and in an instant, the flesh and blood of the giant snake flew sideways, and the rats were famous for their gnawing, and their ability to gnaw was so powerful.

The injured giant snake rolled around on the ground with the giant rat, and the strangulation force was even stronger, wanting to quickly hang the giant rat to stop the pain of being eaten and bitten by the other party. In the process of wrestling between the two, blood was splashed all over the ground, and the scene was very inappropriate for children.

This situation lasted for nearly half an hour, and during the dogfight, the two mutant beasts leveled the entire ruins in the vicinity like a road roller, and even the mall was affected by the pond fish, rubbing a large hole and bending a load-bearing I-beam.

As Li Gang snorted at the two mutant beasts with repeated roars and tired naps from the uninspired grappling, they finally quieted down. The winner is divided, and it can be said that there is no winner.

The giant rat's body became twisted, and its intestines spit out. The body of the giant snake was almost broken in two, and only a piece of skin and flesh was still attached after being gnawed by the giant rat, and it seemed that it would not survive.

Seeing this, Li Gang was happy, "This is the legendary big luck?" They're high-level mutant beasts, and these snake scales don't look ordinary. The giant snake has been rolling on the ground for so long, and the ruins have been smoothed out, except for the place where the giant rat bites, the snake scales in other places have not broken a bit, and its tenacity can be seen. If it's made into clothes, oops, it's cool and crooked! And the teeth of that giant rat, which can gnaw such hard snake scales, wouldn't it be right to use them as weapons? ”

Li Gang grabbed the outer edge of the roof and jumped forward, drawing an arc in the air and falling directly to the ground.

The fifteen-meter free fall made Li Gang smash to the ground like a meteorite, and trampled the hardened ground that was already full of cracks even more.

After making sure that the two big guys were really dead, Li Gang pulled out his dagger and came to the fracture of the giant snake. The wounds from the rat's bite turned outwards and had a fishy stench that was nothing compared to its value.

Inserted the dagger into the gap in the snakeskin, and cut it hard, but heard a "ding" sound, and the dagger broke!

"Is it so sturdy? Is this a high-precision dagger, or am I using it incorrectly? Li Gang depressedly threw away the handle of the dagger, pinched the broken blade with two fingers and pulled it out.

In fact, the broken dagger is indeed related to Li Gang's wrong usage, he used the dagger to cut the snake skin, the dagger was stuck by the scales on the snake skin, and his own strength was too great to cause the dagger to break, if it was cut along the gap of the snake scales, this situation would not occur.

The dagger didn't work, Li Gang fortunately rolled up his sleeves and tore them directly with his hands. I tried it in an ordinary state, but it didn't work, the toughness of this snake scale was by no means ordinary.

"Wool, I can't cure you anymore!" Seeing that the good things were in front of him, Li Gang also lost his temper, and the blade-shaped Yuan pattern instantly unfolded behind his back, entering a state of Yuan Force explosion.

Entering the state of Yuan Force Explosion is like transforming into a concave and convex man, greatly increasing the physical attributes geometrically. Li Gang grabbed the broken snakeskin, exerted force with both arms, and the tough snakeskin made a piercing sound like a steel tear, and a large hole was torn open, revealing the pink snake flesh inside.

"This snake meat should taste good! After a while, cut some and go back to roast and eat. ”

Thinking of eating, Li Gang's stomach screamed. Only then did I remember that I hadn't eaten lunch yet, and I was cooking noodles and was attracted by these two guys.

In order to eat quickly, Li Gang accelerated the peeling speed, and in a few minutes, he peeled off the skin of the bitten snake tail. In order not to get the snake meat dirty, he decided to cut off the tail meat first and then pick up another section.

Snake meat is much easier to cut than snake skin, and Li Gang grabbed half of the dagger blade with his bare hands to cut the snake meat. With the protection of Yuan Li, the sharp blade of the dagger could not hurt him at all. The snake meat is cut into strips and placed on the snake skin, and each snake meat has more than ten catties.

"Get up, slaves of the old world, get up, the whole world suffers and drips silver, full of anger has boiled, and you have to fight for food," Li Gang was humming an out-of-tune version of the 'Internationale' while throwing white snake flesh onto the snake skin, when suddenly a dense 'rustle' sound sounded all around.

Sunny and rainy day? No, it's a black colony!

I saw countless palm-sized ants crawling out of the flattened ruins, happily rubbing their jaws larger than their heads, and converging into a sea of ants rushing towards the corpses of giant rats and giant snakes. It was a spectacular scene. But now is not the time for appreciation.

"Your sister!"

Li Gang didn't care about cutting the snake meat anymore, he grabbed the snake skin on the ground indiscriminately, exploded again, stepped on the ground and suddenly exerted force, and suddenly carried a huge package of body from the ground, like a bullet to the shopping mall not far away.

Li Gang judged that these ants were lured out of the ground because of the vibration caused by the battle between the two mutant beasts, and the ants were originally underdeveloped, relying on the smell and touch of the tentacles to search and communicate, so they were likely to be attracted by the flesh and blood of the mutant beasts and ignore themselves.

As Li Gang expected, the ant colony was like a tide, and the corpses of the two mutant beasts were buried, and they did not come to chase him who had fled. Seeing that the gate of the mall was in front of him, suddenly a strong wind pressed down from his head, and at the same time, a black shadow shrouded Li Gang.

Dangerous!

Li Gang changed direction suddenly, but he made a 90-degree turn in the rapid running, and the ground was shattered by his sharp turn.

Click!

A pair of large, scaly golden claws descended from the sky, crushing the ground to pieces.

"Ga"

Accompanied by the strange scream was a huge figure, a giant bird-like mutant beast with a wingspan of ten meters!

"Mom! What a big chicken! "This mutant bird has a row of red feathers on its head, and at first glance it looks like a chicken.

Against the strong air flow brought by the unknown giant bird, Li Gang turned around and rushed towards the mall again, because he knew that the leak outside would only give the giant bird a chance to attack, and it would not be able to pursue it only by hiding in the mall.

The giant bird swooped down into the air, then pecked at its prey in the eye with lightning speed with its sharp beak.

Syllable!

Li Gang quickly flashed the bird's beak and rushed into the mall.

The escape of the prey made the giant bird very angry, pecking and scratching at the outer wall of the mall, and the iron outer wall of the mall was scratched out of a huge gap like paper paste, and Li Gang bared his teeth when he saw it.

"Quack" mutant bird screams.

"You scream, I won't go out if I cut my throat!"

Ignoring the perseverance of the giant bird, Li Gang walked towards the depths of the mall with his back on his back, he thought that as long as it was not in the bird's sight, it would naturally leave if it couldn't find its target for a while.

However, Li Gang was wrong, instead of leaving because the target entered the darkness, the giant bird intensified its tossing, and it had the taste of not giving up until the goal was achieved. If only that's it, let it toss around poorly, but this giant bird actually spouts fire into the mall through the peck open iron wall!

This time, Li Gang couldn't bear it, and if he endured it again, he should be familiar.

"The tiger is not powerful, you and I are HelloKitty!"

Sou!

With a rapid sound of breaking wind, a two-meter-high refrigerator flew out of the darkness like a cannonball, hitting the beak of the giant bird that was breathing fire, and smashed the flames back.

The refrigerator smashed, the giant bird screamed, and the fire-breathing bird's head that poked into the mall was also smashed out by the refrigerator.

Before the giant bird could poke its head in again, two more refrigerators flew out and smashed at the big bird's head.

The stunt of opening the refrigerator with his head in succession made the giant bird's mind dizzy, and the wings prostrate on the outer wall of the mall spread, and flew up with a strong air current.

The mutant giant bird flew up not to leave, but circled around the mall, swooping down from time to time to lift a large piece of iron, and the huge impact distorted some of the steel beams of the mall.

Most of the mall is flammable, and it has been sprayed with two fires by mutant birds, and now it is burning more and more, and it has become a sea of fire in just a few minutes.

Although Li Gang was ready to leave here at any time, he didn't expect to leave like this. It is wise to store a lot of food in cold storage beforehand. The contents of the cold storage have long been broken when the power is off, but the thick iron door is still good for storing some packaged food, so you don't have to worry about being found and destroyed by mutant creatures, in case the people who bring the camp will come to pick it up in the future. I don't know if the things in the cold storage can be kept under the fire, as for the other things in the mall, they must not be saved, and a large amount of food has been turned into ashes, which really makes Li Gang feel distressed.

I quickly went to the locker room where I usually rested, and took out a large travel bag that had also been packed a long time ago. Most of the bags were filled with food, as well as flashlights, lighters, compasses and other items, and a camping tent was strapped to the top of the backpack.

Carrying the travel backpack to his body, buckle the strap, and then Li Gang picked up hundreds of kilograms of snake meat wrapped in snake skin with one hand and rushed out.

Li Gang didn't go downstairs and walk the door, the first floor was already in flames, and the fire had spread to the second floor, so he had to find another way out. If not, make your own! 、

From the outside, the mall was flickering with fires and billowing smoke.

Touch!

A human fist pierced through the iron wall of the mall, and then another hand stretched out, and in the piercing sound of metal tearing, the iron wall was torn open a big hole, Li Gang poked his head out of this hole with a dirty face, looked around, and did not see the mutant bird, so he jumped down from this hole with a large travel bag and a snakeskin package.

When he landed, Li Gang rolled forward and unloaded the force, not for himself, but for the backpack on his back, which could not withstand the impact of falling from a height of more than ten meters. If your backpack breaks, you can get it in trouble.

After landing safely, Li Gang immediately rushed in the direction of the octopus tree, and he planned to return to the eight-story office building before. There is a deterrent from the octopus tree, and there are usually no mutated creatures, so it is best to be a shelter.

Passing by the ant colony, Li Gang glanced at it, the corpse of the mutant giant rat had been dismembered, and the dismembered part was being carried to the anthill, and the half of the giant snake also did not escape the fate of being cut into pieces again. He passed not far from the ant colony, but the ant colony did not react at all. Only a few ants felt the tremors and began to probe where Li Gang had run.

As soon as he ran a short distance, the mutant bird's keen eyes spotted Li Gang, and with a flap of his huge wings, he drew an arc in the air and chased after him.
