Chapter 38: Illustrated Encyclopedia of Mutant Creatures

The importance of crystal nucleus jade to the bracelet space is self-evident. In this regard, Li Ba decided to start the acquisition from tomorrow.

Not to mention the crystal nucleus, jade was valuable before the end of the world, but now it is greatly reduced. In the case of food and clothing, luxury goods such as jade have limited value.

Li Ba once saw in the market, some people peddled jade bracelets, and the price was only a few dozen catties of food stamps. With his current net worth, he can definitely buy a large number of them.

The unexpected harvest surprised Li Ba. Subsequently, he also checked the condition of the mutant dog's corpse. The corpse of this mutant dog was on the ground in front of the tower, and he was worried that the crystal nucleus in its head would be absorbed by the land, so Li Ba deliberately checked it several times. It was found that the crystal nucleus in the mutant dog's head was intact, so he left the bracelet space with peace of mind.

Not long after, Stone sent a book. It reads Illustrated Encyclopedia of Mutant Creatures, officially published by the settlement. After opening it, not to mention that the printing of this illustrated encyclopedia is very standardized. The first page is a table of contents, detailing the mutated organisms into three main categories.

The first category is zombies. The book is accompanied by pictures and texts, and there is a detailed description. Zombies are refined into three categories, one is ordinary zombies, which are the most numerous. The second type is mutated zombies, which are subdivided into two categories: agile zombies and power zombies.

The mutant zombie that Li Ba encountered today is an agile mutant zombie. These zombies are capable of evolving by devouring flesh. The lowest level, the highest So far, Xibu officials have found a third-level agility zombie.

The main characteristics of agile zombies are their speed, their claws are as sharp as blades, and their attacks are extremely strong. The lowest level of agile zombies has five times the speed of ordinary people, and with sharp claws like knives, ordinary people are absolutely nightmarish existences. Even if an Evolver wants to kill, it will be very difficult.

What Li Ba encountered today was a first-level agile zombie. Fortunately, he is a semi-cripple, and his strength is greatly reduced. Otherwise, with the speed of more than five times that of ordinary people, a single photo can kill Li Ba.

I secretly called luck in my heart. Li Ba turned the pages one by one, and the agile zombies reached the third level, their strength doubled, and they had ten times the speed of ordinary people, coming and going without a shadow, and even bullets could dodge.

Secretly scolded a pervert.

Li Ba continued to look. Then there are the power zombies, these guys all look like giants, and the lowest level of power zombies is also two meters tall. The skin of the whole body has evolved a stratum corneum, which is extremely defensive, able to resist firearms and bullets, and is infinitely powerful, rushing to kill like a humanoid tank, invincible, and unstoppable.

In addition to ordinary zombies and mutant zombies, there is a third category, xenomorph zombies. The number of such zombies is extremely small, and they have various mutation abilities, and their strength is so strong that they can be called the nightmare of evolutionaries.

For this kind of zombie, the illustration is not much introduced, and it is estimated that the official settlement does not have much information about this kind of zombie.

After introducing zombies, it is the second type of mutant beasts. So far, there are more than 30 kinds of mutant beasts recorded in official sources. Mutant beasts are collectively referred to and are divided into three categories, mutant beasts, mutant birds, and mutant insects.

Among them, mutant beasts and mutant birds are extremely intelligent, and although they have violent personalities, they may be domesticated by humans. In particular, pre-apocalyptic human pets such as cats and dogs have a very high chance of domestication.

As for the mutant insects, they are officially listed as creatures that are even more terrifying than zombies by the settlement. There is not much intelligence, only biological instincts. Sex likes to live in groups, and after genetic mutation, their strength is strong, and once someone invades their territory, they swarm and attack wildly, even the most powerful evolutionary can't resist it.

The representatives of this type of mutant insects are mutant poisonous bees and mutant ants. They inhabit mountains and forests and do not actively attack humans, but once they set foot in their territory, they will invite a killing spree.

According to official records, the strength of the most ordinary mutant beasts is also stronger than that of evolutionaries and zombies of the same level. Among them, Li Ba deliberately checked the records about mutant dogs.

For mutant dogs, the colony officials give it a very high evaluation. Every adult mutant dog can have the strength of a second-level evolutionary. A few special varieties can even reach the strength of a third-level evolutionary.

"That's amazing!"

Li Ba grinned. If that's the case, he'll have to be kind to the puppies and nurture them carefully. According to the canine maturation cycle, at most a year or two, the puppy will reach adulthood. At that time, he will have a powerful helper.

This was followed by an introduction to mutant plants. In general, there are two main groups of mutant plants. One is edible mutant plants, which are collectively referred to as mutated grains and mutated fruits. One is non-edible mutant plants.

There are many varieties of non-edible mutant plants, which are divided into aggressive mutant plants and harmless mutant plants. The most special is the aggressive mutant plant, whose gene is mutated by a virus and has a neuronal response similar to that of an animal. Once disturbed, they will attack the intruder in a variety of ways.

According to the official records of the settlement, there are more than 10 species of these aggressive mutant plants. Some can emit poisonous gas for passive attack, and some resemble cannibal flowers to carry out active attacks in order to prey, which is impossible to prevent, and the harm to humans is greater than that of mutant beasts.

"Aggressive Mutant Plant ......"

Li Ba came to be interested. Make up your mind, and when you're done with what you're doing, take a break and study these aggressive mutant plants. Maybe it will bring him an unexpected surprise.

At the end of this illustrated version of the official information, the evolutionary is elaborated. In some ways, human evolutionaries are somewhat similar to zombies, which can be divided into three categories, ordinary evolutionaries, abnormal evolutionaries, and mutant evolutionaries.

Normal Evolutionaries are almost the same as mutated zombies, and are divided into two types: agility and strength. Upon awakening, the Agile Evolver has five times the speed of a normal person. Power Evolvers have five times the strength of ordinary people.

After the ability evolver awakens, in addition to improving his physique, he can also have abilities such as water, fire, wind and thunder, and his strength is much stronger than that of ordinary evolutionaries.

The third type of mutant evolutionary is very few in number. According to the settlement's official statistics, out of a thousand evolutionaries, there is at most one mutant evolutionary. Its main feature is that some of its body organs are abnormal, and it has superpowers that are unimaginable to ordinary people.

There are very few official descriptions of these deviant evolutionaries, only a few sentences. Perhaps there is a lack of information, or the superpowers of such evolutionaries are too important to be officially classified and not publicized to the public.

These three types of evolutionaries are all capable of increasing their strength by absorbing crystal nuclei. According to the official records of Xibu, so far, the most powerful evolutionary has reached the fourth level.

Li Ba sighed. He didn't have much ambition, and if he could become an ordinary evolutionary, he would be satisfied. Thinking in his heart, when he paid off the debts for Zhou Yan, the business of the material store was on track, and if he had the funds in hand, he would also look for a way to see if he could get a purification potion and try his luck!

That night, he read the book several times before going to bed. Before going to bed, he went to the bathroom. There, there are bean sprouts that I tried to brew two days ago.

Soaking bean sprouts is simple. Two large plastic pots, the bottom is pierced with dense holes, put in soaked soybean mung beans, and cover them with gauze. Watering several times a day, under normal circumstances, sprouts can be produced in three or four days.

Li Ba tried to produce two pots. One pot is watered with hot springs, and the other is watered with water mixed with a little spiritual spring. As a result, at the moment when the gauze is uncovered, the germination rate of the beans concocted with the hot springs is extremely low, and most of the beans are rotten and spoiled, and a sour smell permeates the air.

After the other pot is opened, a pot full of mung bean sprouts. Each one is four or five inches long and grows well.

Li Ba secretly praised. Or is the space spirit spring effective. Before the end of the day, mung bean sprouts like this large were not that big at all unless soaked in urea fertilizer water. And the bean sprouts he brewed are absolutely original, without adding any hormone fertilizer.

Draining the water, Li Ba weighed the soaked bean sprouts on an electronic scale. Two catties of mung beans soaked a whole pot of bean sprouts, which was nearly twenty catties.

In the last days, fresh vegetables are more expensive than grain. Under normal circumstances, one pound of vegetables requires three pounds of food stamps. In other words, according to the market price, the sprouts made from two catties of beans can bring him nearly sixty times the profit!

Even if it is sold cheaply, a pound of bean sprouts and a pound of food stamps will have a tenfold profit, which is even more cost-effective than planting mutated crops!

"It's a quick way to get rich!"

A happy smile appeared on Li Ba's fat face. After that, he started to get busy. Dozens of large plastic pots purchased from the market earlier were all used to make bean sprouts for the opening of the supply store.

PS: Well, at a certain point when the brushes are rampant, the big farmers were able to accumulate a collection of 300 so quickly, all thanks to everyone's support. I received a sad text message yesterday, but I won't talk about it...... Again, as long as someone is willing to read it, Shinobu will write it down and continue to ask for support
