Chapter 91 : Snake Army
Rustle rustle…
Research Island, in the snake den.
Large numbers of young snakes were slithering on the ground, densely packed. They looked exceptionally crazy, and their voices were incessant.
However…
When the finished product of the Evolution Potion had been consumed by these young snakes.
Ye Bei could clearly feel that their intelligence was rapidly increasing…
Hiss hiss!
Even when they stuck out their tongues, they could still do some simple communication.
However, what truly shocked Ye Bei was in other aspects.
The first young snake that had obtained a finished product of the Evolution Potion had climbed out of the hill of shattered rocks and rushed to the side of a mutant wild boar…
Ci ci!
Kacha, kacha…
Gulp!
Then, Ye Bei clearly saw that the young snake was starting to devour the meat of the wild boar without a care.
In the beginning, it could only eat a little at a time.
But as the meat entered its mouth, the young snake’s body was actually growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye… As it grew bigger, it continued to devour. This kind of illogical growth speed was…just like having the help of some infinite devouring system.
Hiss hiss…
As the other young snakes joined in.
Around the hill of shattered rocks, the initially large number of mutant beast corpses quickly decreased.
In their place were 1,000 hatched young mutant Reticulated Pythons. Their bodies were growing crazily.
centimeters!
centimeters!
centimeters…
In less than an hour, the smallest young snake was already an entire meter long.
This situation stunned Golden Lion, who was watching from afar.
On the other side of the hill of shattered rocks, Wang Wen, Spring Flower Autumn Moon, Pursuing Joy Making Merry and the other snakes were dumbfounded.
The three previously mutated Reticulated Pythons were even more absolutely stunned.
A thousand young snakes could rapidly grow. They would lengthen as long as they swallowed food…
Wasn’t this too f*cking terrifying?
Based on this speed, wouldn’t it not be long before all of them would possess terrifying combat power?
The snake race’s population had reached over 1,000 in an instant?
“System! These young snakes can also evolve indefinitely?”
Ye Bei looked at the young snakes that were rapidly growing. Finally, he could not help but ask the system in a low voice.
“That’s not it! Currently, the only one who has unlimited evolution ability is the host himself! As for Wang Wen, Spring Flower Autumn Moon, Pursuing Joy Making Merry, and Golden Lion, they have only obtained the devouring ability… Through devouring, they can transform food into energy, thereon allowing their physical fitness to have significant increase! And these young snakes are the same! Other than bestowing a creature with high intelligence, the greatest thing about the finished product of the Evolution Potion is this ability. They can quickly pass through its infancy and possess the strength to protect themselves.”
The system explained.
F*ck…
After hearing this, Ye Bei’s eyes widened.
The finished product of the Evolution Potion… Ye Bei had always thought that it could only increase one’s intelligence.
But obviously…it could allow a newly born creature to absorb energy and grow quickly. This point was not inferior to increasing one’s intelligence.
In other words…
As long as he had this potion, Ye Bei could cultivate a group of terrifying combat powers at the fastest speed possible.
“So that’s how it is. Very well!”
Ye Bei nodded his head in satisfaction.
He was the only one who could devour endlessly. Other creatures could only improve their physical fitness at most. No wonder the eight blood pythons including Spring Flower Autumn Moon and Pursuing Joy Making Merry had not achieved breakthrough in evolution of their species even after having devoured so many mutant beasts.
After understanding this point, all his previous doubts were finally resolved.
Ye Bei even understood why the system would allow him to control the number of disciples as much as possible…
With the improvement of his species, sooner or later, it would reach an unimaginable level. If the disciples were all low-level creatures, how awkward would that be?
“But…system, is there no way to change their genes? To allow their species level to increase as well?”
Ye Bei continued to ask.
“Regarding this, of course it can be done! However, each time the gene intensity increases, the host must pay a certain price…for example treasure chests or other valuable items. When the host has such a request, I will explain it in detail to the host.”
Hu!
After hearing this, Ye Bei heaved a huge sigh of relief.
This feeling was good…
Since it could be increases, that was good enough.
If he could not increase it, Ye Bei would definitely be depressed to death.
Hiss hiss.
Kacha, kacha…
The young snakes continued to devour, and such sounds continued to resound.
Three hours later.
All the mutant beast corpses around the hill of shattered rocks had already disappeared. Even some of the dried blood on the ground had been devoured by the young snakes. As their bodies grew larger, their intelligence also increased rapidly.
“King!”
“King!”
“King!”
After all the food had been eaten, the 1,000 pythons sensed the powerful aura from Ye Bei’s body. Almost at the same time, they all turned their eyes to Ye Bei and hissed with their tongues stuck out.
Ye Bei was very calm about this situation.
He was the strongest.
And these young snakes were smart.
It was not a problem for them to address him as king. Moreover, when they were born, Ye Bei had already communicated with them mentally. In other words, these pythons were as close to Ye Bei as father and son.
“Very well! The longest one among you is two meters, and the smallest one is one meter! But only so is far from enough… In the future, all of you will be members of the snake race, and soon, our snake race will be making a big move. With your current strength, it is far from enough… In the time to come, you will be led by Wang Wen, Spring Flower Autumn Moon and Pursuing Joy Making Merry! And during this period of time, you all must use all your strength to empower yourselves.”
“As for you three Reticulated Pythons, join Wang Wen’s side and listen to Wang Wen’s orders!”
Ye Bei stuck out his tongue and said seriously.
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
Orderly voices were heard from the scene.
Those young snakes quickly stood in line according to their auras.
They stood on the side of whoever who had hatched them.
However, after this distribution, Wang Wen’s side had the most numbers, reaching more than 400. On the side of the other eight blood pythons including Spring Flower Autumn Moon and Pursuing Joy Making Merry, there were not even 100 young snakes behind each of them.
However…
These young snakes were not ordinary young snakes.
When they grew up, they were mutant Reticulated Pythons that evolved from finished products of the Evolution Potion.
Although the number of the blood pythons controlled by Spring Flower Autumn Moon, Pursuing Joy Making Merry and the others were a little fewer, they were still very satisfied in their hearts.
When the young snakes grew up.
They would be the boss…
They would have soldiers neath them as well!!
“Alright… I give you all three days. During these three days, feel free to hunt on the island! You all can also hunt together, but you’re not allowed to snatch the food of the young snakes… Golden Lion, you too.”
Looking at the densely packed young serpents in front of him.
Ye Bei’s was feeling exhilirated…
After saying this, the pythons and Golden Lion all widened their eyes, filled with excitement.
One could imagine how tragic the situation would be in the next three days on Research Island and in the red area forest.
