For the next period of time, Xia Fan was in a state of recuperation.

In the battle with the Giant Rat King, he was actually seriously injured, even if the external injuries healed quickly, the internal injuries were not so easy to heal.

For two months in a row, except for the matter of the Blood Shadow Martial Arts Hall and Laishan Academy, he spent most of his energy on cultivation, constantly improving his strength.

On October 23, 2063, he officially entered his senior year, that is, it was graduation season.

At this time, the academy's courses have been greatly reduced, the study burden has been greatly reduced, and he can spare more time to practice marksmanship.

The hill behind the villa, in a small dense forest.

The temperature at the end of December is already very low, and with the first snow just falling, the leaves are falling, and the winter wind is bleak, many people have to wrap themselves in thick coats when they go out.

Xia Fan was wearing only a hurdle vest and black tight shorts, and the exploding musket in his hand danced into a silver light, and every time he swung it with all his strength, it would cause a loud explosion.

"Bang Bang Bang Bang~~"

The deafening loud noise continued, and the powerful impact of the sound waves made the surrounding hills tremble, and the birds were even more frightened and silenced, burying their heads in the nests.

It can be seen that among the birch trees around him, there are eight steel plates, each 30 centimeters thick, forming a large circle around him.

At this moment, these steel plates are densely covered with gun holes.

"Poof!"

With a wave of his hand, Xia Fan drilled the exploding musket into a steel plate again, breaking a fist-sized opening, and then jerked it out with a force.

He finally had a smile on his face, as if he was very satisfied with the effect of this blow, wiped his sweat, and thought in his heart: "According to the calculation, the defense power of the beast king-level monster is equivalent to the strength of a 30-centimeter steel plate. In the past two months, I have repeatedly practiced breaking defenses, and I can easily pierce 30 centimeters of steel plates, even if I face the giant rat king again, I will not be as embarrassed as last time. ”

It's not easy to do that. He practiced his bayonet more than 350 times a day, consuming at least six steel plates. If his scrapped steel plates are stacked together, it is estimated that they are as tall as three or four stories.

"That's it for today!"

His body shook, and with a "whoosh", the whole person jumped directly into the air, and rose to a height of more than 8 meters in one breath before slowly landing.

Boom!

His feet hit the ground, and a cloud of smoke and dust was thrown up.

He looked back and saw that he was almost 100 meters away from where he had just jumped.

"These days, I've also made great strides in telekinesis, not only moving foreign objects, but even carrying myself. It's just that if you carry yourself, the amount of genetic energy consumed will increase exponentially. ”

However, he is still very satisfied with the effect, after all, he jumped more than 100 meters in one breath, far beyond the limit of ordinary people's ability, and in the future, it will become a means of saving his life when he encounters danger.

Transferring objects in the air is a joint point of the small star-picking hand exercise, and once it is refined, it is equivalent to the small success of this set of exercises. After nearly two months of fumbling, Xia Fan finally figured out the trick. The so-called air transfer is to diffuse the genetic energy in the body out of the body, forming an "invisible" hand, so as to "grasp" things outside the body.

It's easy to say, but it's much harder to do, and you don't even think about it without subtle control of your genetic instincts.

"Hum~~"

There was a vibrating sound from the mobile phone placed on the bluestone next to it.

Xia Fan walked over and picked up the phone, pressed the answer button, and Tang Ziyi's voice came from the phone:

"Xiaofan, the information you asked me to check has a result. Come to the martial arts hall. ”

"Okay, Sister Tang, I'll go over right away. Xia Fan replied immediately.

The origin of the two black chickens was about to be revealed, and he couldn't help but look forward to it a little more. However, what surprised him was, why did Tang Ziyi take so long to get results?

Carrying the exploding musket back to the villa, Xia Fan first changed his clothes, and then simply said hello to his parents and Lu Jiaqi, and he hurried to the Blood Shadow Martial Arts Hall non-stop.

......

In the Blood Shadow Martial Arts Hall, Xia Fan saw Tang Ziyi in the training ground, wearing a tight top, his hands were raised, and the genetic energy around his body was like smoke.

"Sister Tang, what is the result?What is the matter with the black chicken?" Xia Fan ran over and asked impatiently.

Tang Ziyi turned his head to see him, and exhaled slowly: "Your temperament is quite anxious." ”

Xia Fan scratched his head embarrassedly. After waiting for more than two months, now that the results are out, he is naturally scratching his heart like a hundred claws, eager to know the answer.

"Okay, I'm not kidding you. Tang Ziyi stopped what she was doing, and all the genetic energy around her body was absorbed into her body, and she put on her clothes casually, and then said, "This is indeed a major discovery." ”

"What major discovery?" Xia Fan's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly.

"I sent the photo you sent to a genetic research institute. They reported that the bird was called 'Wufeng'. You may not have heard of this name, but they have a close relative called Phoenix, you must have heard of it. The specific situation cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences. Here is the information sent by the genetic research institution, you can see for yourself!" Tang Ziyi took a towel from the shelf to wipe his sweat, took a USB flash drive from the table with the other hand, and handed it to Xia Fan.

"Okay, Sister Tang. ”

Xia Fan hurriedly took it, found a computer at random at the base, and inserted the USB flash drive into it.

Click on the USB flash drive, and what appears in it is not information, but a website - Guanghan Palace Gene Research Institute.

Xia Fan was taken aback.

The Guanghangong Gene Research Institute is the largest genetic research institution in the Kingdom of Heaven, gathering elites from all over the country and creating many genetic drugs, which can be described as famous.

The site has a separate section called "Mythical Creatures".

Under this block, Xia Fan saw an introduction to Wufeng: Wufeng, with a genetic evolution rate of more than 45%, lived 70 million years ago, and later as the earth's genetic energy became sparse, some genes in its body changed from dominant to recessive, hidden, and transformed into the current black chicken. With the increase in the concentration of gene origin, the genes in the black chicken's body awaken, and there is a certain probability of atavism and re-becoming a black phoenix.

There was also a photo posted on it, which was one of the photos that Xia Fan transferred to Tang Ziyi.

"So, my yellow dog ate two black phoenixes?" Xia Fan looked confused, this is too terrifying, even the mythical creatures have run out.

However, he felt that the two black phoenixes that were eaten by the yellow dog had not yet fully atavised their ancestors, and they only had an evolution rate of 4~5% at most. If it was a real black phoenix, it would be terrifying, and no one on earth could kill it. It is likely to be a disaster.

The appearance of "mythical creatures" aroused his interest. He casually looked at the information under this block, there were not only black phoenixes, but also Pixiu, unicorns, dragons, etc., all of which were mythical creatures, and the content was very complete.

"The lizard returns to its ancestors into dinosaurs, the black rooster returns to its ancestors into black phoenixes, and the koi fish return to their ancestors into giant dragons...... Is this an age of great evolution, or is it an age of mythology?"

Xia Fan looked at the information of so many mythical creatures, and sighed in his heart, feeling that there are still many, many unknowns in this world, waiting to be explored.

"Hey, what is this?"

He was suddenly stunned, and saw a small area at the top, hanging a wooden block, on which were written the words "Bounty List".

Click in and take a look, it's actually a bounty list for catching mythical creatures.

"Bounty List 1: Mythical Creatures Alive. ”

"Quantity: Unlimited. ”

"Bounty price: 1,000,000 one. ”

"Issued by: Guanghangong Gene Research Institute. ”

......

"Bounty List 2: Mythical Creature Corpses. ”

"Quantity: Unlimited. ”

"Bounty price: 300,000 one. ”

"Issued by: Guanghangong Gene Research Institute. ”

"Shhhhh Xia Fan pulled a cool breath from between his teeth.

This Guanghan Palace's hand is also too big, and it even wants to offer a reward for mythical creatures, all the black phoenixes, pixiu, unicorns, dragons, etc., are all on that list.

But think about it, those atavistic mythical creatures are still very weak and easy to capture, and they have great research value.

The ancestral genes in them are very powerful and have infinite possibilities.

Xia Fan was thrilled, this price is too tempting, if he can hunt 5 mythical creatures, then the money for bidding for Class B genetic drugs can basically be gathered.

"Shall I try it?"

Xia Fan hesitated suddenly, this opportunity was too rare. However, he was also worried in his heart, how many atavistic mythical creatures are there on the earth? What if the number is too scarce, let alone five, it will be difficult to touch one? Isn't it a waste of time?

Moreover, those mythical creatures are obviously not so easy to catch, they hide in famous mountains and rivers, and the herds are entrenched, and they may encounter king-level monsters.
