Chapter 131: Bidirectional Variation and the Genetic Hierarchy

"There are three blackhorned snakes..."

"It's all dead!"

When Lin Chen saw this scene, he was completely stunned.

Burst!

As if it was controlled, just like when Xiao Hei saw the monitor lizard before, driven by instinct, he actually rushed out of the snake's den and kept approaching the monitor lizard!

Uncanny!

Hiss.

Xiao Hei saw two blackhorned snakes rushing towards him, and the other blackhorned snake was so badly injured that he couldn't move, so he could only spit snake letters, constantly making eerie sounds.

Lose your marbles!

These blackhorned snakes are crazy!

The little black snake's pupils burst out with coldness, and it was directly buckled on the body of one of the black-horned snakes, and its fangs pierced into the latter's scale armor, easily passing through!

To know.

Xiao Hei is also a mutant, and its mutation is even more special than this group of guys!

Explosive power!

Directly on this oncoming black-horned snake, bite out two blood holes!

A trickle of blood!

"Why the hell is this instinct?"

Lin Chen didn't know.

It's all so weird.

It's the first time I've encountered this kind of situation since I discovered the mutant myself!

After all, because of the weather, the variants that appeared at the beginning were very rare.

It was only in the days when the doom was about to end that the mutant creatures gradually increased.

Right now, the three seriously injured mutant blackhorn snakes, who were already dying, were tied to their heads by Xiao Hei and dragged them directly.

"Die!"

Lin Chen saw Xiao Hei come to the area of the vines.

It is 27m away from the star vine tree.

He controlled the sharp spikes at the tip of the vine and pierced directly into the heads of the three blackhorned snakes!

[Ding!The host kills 1 blackhorned snake and gets 40 evolution points and 1 snake gene!]

[Ding!The host kills 1 blackhorned snake and gets 40 evolution points and 1 snake gene!]

[Ding!The host kills 1 blackhorned snake and gets 40 evolution points and 1 snake gene!]

......

The system's prompt sounds.

"40 evolution points?"

After seeing the data, Lin Chen was immediately relieved.

Since the evolution of the Star Vine Tree, the income has decreased, and the evolution point has also decreased by killing this group of black horned snakes by himself.

The juvenile Blackhorned Snake, which was originally able to gain (approximately) 5 evolution points, can now only gain 2 evolution points.

The growing blackhorn serpent, which was supposed to gain (approximately) 15 evolution points, can now only gain 10 evolution points.

The Mature Blackhorn Serpent, which was supposed to gain (approximately) 30 evolution points, can now only gain 20 evolution points.

"These guys are also mature blackhorned snakes... However, since it is a mutant species, the number of evolution points obtained has increased, reaching 40 points. ”

An extra 20 points!

Same as the sand lizard mutants!

"It's good to have a little more evolution, but... There doesn't seem to be anything else. ”

I thought that killing the mutant would be able to surprise him.

In fact.

These surprises are just extra evolution points.

"Something is better than nothing. ”

"I'm afraid that when the doom period is over, more and more mutants will appear!"

Under the exploration of spiritual power, Xiao Hei worked tirelessly to carry the remains of the black horned snake one by one.

These wrecks are the masterpieces of monitor lizards.

And during the time it was consigned, Lin Chen fell into deep thought.

Why?

A question that has been bothering him for a long time!

The riot of the mutant Blackhorn Serpent swarm.

Blackie's instinct is driven.

The source of these is the monitor lizard!

He didn't understand.

What is it about monitor lizards that attracts them?

"After devouring monitor lizards, can it bring them benefits?"

"And Blackie too... If you devour it, will it bring benefits to this group of blackhorned snakes?"

This instinct had to make Lin Chen suspicious.

It's like when people are hungry and want to eat and fill their stomachs, it's instinct.

Breathing, too, is instinctive.

"There wasn't any of this before... Until, after the outbreak of doom!"

Suddenly.

He seemed to understand something.

It's all because of the doom, because of the alienation of genes!

If so, it seems to make sense!

Genetic level!

The genetic level of monitor lizards is definitely one level higher than that of the blackhorned snake group!

And what about Blackie?

Before the outbreak of the Doom Period, it had already experienced an alienation in its body, and its strength had grown stronger!

And after the outbreak of the doom period, it not only accelerated the growth of the power in the body, but also produced a second alienation like this group of black-horned snakes!

The individual has "evolved"

Two-way mutation!

"If that's the case, then Xiao Hei's genetic level is indeed higher than this group of black-horned snakes!"

Analyze it like this.

He kind of understood.

"The reason why the blackhorned snake group is attacking frantically as if they are not going to die is precisely because the targets of the attack are all beyond their genetic level?"

"Could it be that because they devoured this group of genetically high-level creatures, their genes can also change?"

Thinking of this, Lin Chen couldn't help but make a bold guess before looking back!

Organisms that devour higher-level genes can change the genes in their bodies?

It's ridiculous!

He quickly dismissed the conjecture.

If this is the case, as long as the creatures that keep devouring higher-level genes, won't they be able to "evolve" all the time?

No way!

Moreover, he had never seen it before!

Like Xiao Hei in the initial growth period, he devoured the mature black scorpion, and nothing changed!

"Perhaps... This kind of change only exists between mutants?"

Lin Chen didn't understand.

There are so few examples!

This kind of thing is the first time I've seen it today!

Moreover, it is not possible to see the changes that have occurred in the body of this group of black-horned snakes, and it is impossible to analyze them in detail through specific examples.

I can only guess based on experience.

Therefore, most of this kind of speculation does not stand up to scrutiny.

"Forget it, let's wait until we really see the specific examples in the future!"

As he spoke, he looked at Blackie.

In addition to the seven blackhorned snakes killed earlier, within 60 meters of the Star Vine Tree, there are also the remains of seven mutated blackhorned snakes!

"Nearby, 60 meters, there are a lot of blackhorned snakes!"

"However, there is not a single blackhorned snake on the path that Xiao Hei crawls on, and he should be able to bring back the wreckage from afar. ”

Using his spiritual power, Lin Chen was able to detect the danger that was happening nearby!

After all, within this 60-meter radius, there are at least 50 blackhorned snakes!

The blackhorned snakes that were able to survive were more or less mutated in their bodies.

But.

After so many days, he also discovered a little.

The individual organisms that have mutated, to a greater or lesser extent, are all differentiated.

These creatures are not only blackhorned snakes, but also sand lizards and black scorpions... Wait a minute.

Because of this variation, it's like some kind of evolution.

Of course.

Since it is evolution, in the process, there will be differences.

Take, for example, humans.

It is inevitable that there will be a difference between "whether there are earlobes or not" and "single and double eyelids".

This is the trait that is exhibited.

And it just so happens that genes control these traits!
