Chapter 303: 237: The Infinitely Evolving Little Beast?



On the waist of the mountain, hundreds of sandworms were incessantly rolling downhill, kicking up debris of rock and human figures, torn limbs and mutilated bodies.

The soldiers, hidden in the tunnels, could only run away in panic under the onslaught of the sand worms.

But how could their speed compete with that of the sandworms? They were easily found and slaughtered!

By the home crystal, Chu He watched all this with icy cold eyes.

“Sandworms… Is this the new six-star Alien Beast?”

“Burrowing for movement and ambush, they really are a tricky lot.”

“Unfortunately, if I had not ordered wizards to soften the boulders underground with marsh magic, it would have been difficult for these sandworms to move within the rocks.”

“My tunnel warfare has just given them the opportunity to advance.”

“Since that’s the case, we can only abandon it…”

“Boom…”

The earth shook once again.

In the dim underground passage, a dozen or so soldiers were running chaotically.

They were informed by their lord before the Alien Beast’s attack that they could be saved by running straight along this passage.

Finally, a faint light appeared in front of them.

The delighted eyes of a dozen people hadn’t yet looked down when they discovered there was a slope ahead of them, and the path under their feet suddenly became a downward slide.

A few soldiers, their panic making them choose the wrong path, tumbled down, causing the rest of the people to fall into disarray on the ground as well.

At the same time, the sandworms that had been hunting them also rushed from behind and rolled down like tumbling gourds.

The sandworms, along with the soldiers, rolled faster and faster until a loud noise finally broke through a layer of disguise at the end of the passage.

It was… a cliff!

Chu He used the power of the wizards to connect his tunnel to the cliff behind the mountain peak, causing all the sandworms rushing into the tunnel to rush out, one by one, falling off the cliff!

From a high altitude, at least a dozen large holes appear on the cliff face.

One sandworm after another fell from the sky with a roar, crashing hard onto the ground.

Along with them, there was a large number of soldiers who had been deceived by Chu He and fell off the cliff!

Watching all this, a dense unease and guilt appeared in Chu He’s originally calm eyes.

“I’m sorry… only sacrifice can ensure the survival of more people.”

Behind him, many soldiers were still busily digging.

Finally, a passage leading to the deep interior of the mountain was penetrated through their relentless digging!

“Abandon this place! We go to the deep mountains!”

“Yes! My lord!”

Under the continuous command, one soldier after another stepped into the tunnel in the mountain wall. Chu He also took one last look at the home behind him and turned to leave.

“Home… can’t defend it anymore.”

They had only defeated a small portion of the sandworms.

Outside their home, there were still many Flying Thunder Dragons and sandworms.

The strength of his own soldiers was simply no match for those Alien Beasts.

“We can only try our luck at the summit of Black Tower Mountain. If it weren’t for the beast tide, I would have…”

Suddenly, there was a commotion in front of him, accompanied by the screams of soldiers and panicked shouts.

“What’s going on?”

Chu He quickly asked, could it be that there’s something up ahead…

“My lord! An insect hero appeared in front!”

“What?”

In the dark, a strange insect creature covered in golden armor, with two semi-circular golden wings on its back, was killing its way towards them!

“Humans…?”

“That Human Hero, your strength is very weak, but you have used tactics to slaughter so many of our people… ”

“You must not remain on Jasha Island!”

Accompanied by the insect hero’s cold voice, his figure rushed towards Chu He.

All the soldiers who blocked his path were easily killed by him.

Two crescent-shaped wings on his back, as if made of steel, with sharp edges, no one could leave a scratch on him.

Weapons striking his wings sparked, completely failing to harm him!

A single charge turned over hundreds of human soldiers crammed in the passageway.

“Ah…”

Seeing the insect hero charge over, Chu He sighed silently, then turned and left.

“I haven’t lost yet, there is one last route…!”

“Click, click…”

Accompanied by a faint scratching sound, the top of the Alien Beast egg was finally ‘pushed’ open.

A small reddish head carefully squeezed out.

Zheng Cheng’s eyes slightly moved.

This little guy, why does it look like a… tortoise’s head?

As the small head detected Zheng Cheng, it was noticeably excited, shaking its body vigorously.

Finally, it pushed open the confining Alien Beast egg and revealed its full body.

“Squeak, squeak…”

What appeared before Zheng Cheng’s eyes was… a creature that he couldn’t tell what it was.

It was pink overall, with a chubby belly and head, looking like a big mouse.

But its four limbs and claws were soft and plump, they even had padded feet.

Almost the size of a puppy, it also had a tail hanging behind it.

Upon closer inspection, small tufts of fur were found all over the creature’s body.

Only at the neck, there was a layer of finely grown scales.

On its back were etched layers of delicate patterns, resembling feathers, and also wings.

“Squeak, squeak…”

The small beast called out in a low voice, Zheng Cheng squatted down and opened his arms to it.

The little beast swayed over and finally pounced into Zheng Cheng’s arms, squealing happily.

Its voice was weak and slender, sounding very pleasing.

“What on earth is this?”

Feeling the soft head of this small creature, Zheng Cheng began to inspect the specific attributes of this little beast.

[Name: None]

[Race: Radiation Beast / Evolution Beast]

[Star Level: Six Stars]

[Level: LV0]

[Physique: 1]

[Strength: 1]

[Agility: 1]

[Spirit: 1]

[Talent: Infinite evolution. This creature, a result of a thousand years of nuclear radiation and a myriad of Alien Beast essence blood, has almost unlimited vitality and life energy. It simultaneously has countless evolution paths.]

[Skill 1: Essence Eater. It can devour the essence blood of any creature, with a certain chance to comprehend its power, thereby integrating it into itself and gaining relevant abilities.]

[Skill 2: Fusion. It can fuse any creature’s biological molecules, causing them to merge and change its own body, ultimately increasing its own life class and star level.]

[Description: A unique creature that has been under the influence of nuclear radiation for a thousand years, holding infinite evolutionary potentials and instinct. For some creatures, it is also a great supplement. Consuming it, there’s a certain chance to inherit its unlimited evolutionary talent.]

A six-star creature?

Infinite evolution?

Zheng Cheng oddly looked at the small creature in his hand, astonishment filling his eyes.

He didn’t expect this inadvertently obtained Alien Beast egg to reveal such a big surprise!

It can evolve just by devouring the essence blood of other creatures!

This power… it’s too terrifying!

“Hmm…”

He raised his hand, bringing the little creature to eye level.

“No name? From the radiation island, pink-colored and looks so much like a rat?”

“From now on, I will call you… Jerry!”

“Infinite evolution? Can accommodate other creatures’ biological molecules….. Will my random dissection trait work on you?”

“I’ll look for an opportunity to try it…”

Moving his thoughts, the trait of the random dissection was immediately activated.

With a reach of his hand, a strand of mixed black light appeared in his hand.

Black Sludge Fishman DNA molecule: Underwater breathing.

He patted it on Jerry’s body effortlessly.

“Squee~”

The little creature let out a squeal, then its spirit looked somewhat sluggish, and it lay down on his hand.

“Hmm?”

Zheng Cheng was a bit curious. Was it….tired or hungry?

He brought the creature to the body of a Flying Thunder Dragon, placing it down to see if it would eat. Unexpectedly, the little creature strongly shook its head, obstinately turned its body, and crawled towards the shell of the beast egg.

Then it grabbed a piece of the eggshell and started to eat hungrily.

“Eggshell… it seems that the Black Sludge Fishman’s DNA molecule worked, but to fuse this biological molecule, it needs to consume a lot of energy. That’s why it is nibbling on the shell of the beast egg…”

“As for not wanting to eat the Flying Thunder Dragon’s corpse, could it be because… it’s tired of it?”

For the final few days, the beast egg had been soaking in the blood of the Flying Thunder Dragon and sandworms, just like a bath!

After eating it for so long, of course, it’d want to change its taste.

Once the eggshell was completely devoured, the little creature yawned, fell asleep on the ground, and even started snoring.

Zheng Cheng with a strange facial expression said, “Is it sleeping? Or is it fusing the DNA molecule of the Black Sludge Fishman?”

As for this situation, he was helpless and could only let it be.

Another day later, little Jerry hadn’t woken up yet, and Baker was the first to find Zheng Cheng: “My lord! The battlefield has been completely cleaned up! All Alien Beast corpses have been categorized and transported to the side of the home crystal.”

“Good job.” Zheng Cheng said: “What are our losses?”

Asking this, Baker’s complexion was somewhat gloomy, “My lord… our losses are severe.”

“Out of the original 650 martial art soldiers, 412 people have died, and all the remaining ones are critically injured!”

“Out of 200 Sword and Shield Guards, 156 people have died.”

“Out of 50 mages, 11 have died.”

“Among the most numerous Griffon Knights, out of 1200 people, 328 have died.”

“The rest are the large number of coolies and transport teams you recruited, and more than 80% have died!”

“The overall casualty rate… has exceeded 70%!”

“70%…”

Zheng Cheng also shook his head. Such a high casualty rate, if it were not for the immense trust and high morale of the soldiers towards him, they would have collapsed a long time ago.

Now, out of the 3000 units of population in the six-star homeland, only more than a thousand people remain.

Such losses are undoubtedly severe.

Zheng Cheng asked: “How are our critically injured soldiers doing now?”

“Thanks to Your Lordship’s condensed nectar, they are all fine, but our losses…”

Zheng Cheng said: “Collect all the dead soldiers’ remains properly, let them rest… never mind, cremate them.”

“In addition, after this battle, the Hero’s Altar has accumulated more than 11,000 six-star Alien Beast souls. I am planning to hold the Occupation Uplifting Ceremony in the homeland!”

“Occupation Uplifting Ceremony?”

Baker exclaimed with surprise: “My lord… do you mean… to use the Hero’s Altar, to upgrade regular soldiers to heroes?”

Zheng Cheng nodded: “Correct.”

“For the sake of protecting our homeland, you all have sacrificed everything, even your lives, and of course, I won’t let you down.”

“This Occupation Uplifting Ceremony, will be assigned according to merit! The top two contributors will be granted this opportunity to upgrade their occupation to Hero!”

“All kinds of soldiers… are considered the same!”

“My lord!”

At this moment, Shadell also rushed in hurriedly.

In her hands, she was carrying several things.

“What happened, Shadell?”

“The spoils of war have been completely collected. Apart from the basic materials and resources, we also obtained two special defensive buildings and one six-star barracks template!”

“Oh?”

Zheng Cheng exclaimed: “There is another six-star soldier template?”

To his knowledge, due to the rules of the secret realm, the highest level of soldiers that can appear on Jasha Island can only be six stars!

Which means, six-star soldiers are the highest-level recruitable soldiers on Jasha Island!
