Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 112
Chapter 112: The Last Day
TL: Etude
Now he had accumulated hundreds of thousands of evolution points. He felt a bit anxious about not evolving soon.
After all, evolution took time.
“There’s not a single good hiding spot in these mountains.”
Lin Hao glanced behind him, feeling somewhat helpless.
“Forget it, I’ll wait until night.”
After a brief consideration, Lin Hao decided to remain still. He lazily sprawled out on the ground. Due to his camouflage ability, his body seemed to blend into the ground, appearing only as a raised area unless one looked closely.
…
“We still haven’t found anything.”
“We didn’t find anything on our side either.”
…
Meanwhile, the people scattered at the foot of Dragon Mountain had searched every corner thoroughly.
But they didn’t see any traces of the extraterrestrials, not even any mutant creatures.
“Brother Lin, what should we do now?”
The members of the black carp organization all looked towards a bald middle-aged man addressed as Brother Lin.
“If we can’t find them, it means those extraterrestrials were either eaten by that mutant creature or they escaped.”
“Staying here is pointless. Let’s head back to the civilization ruins.”
The man, named Lin Zhenwu, had great strength. He scanned the group with his eyes and, after a moment of thought, spoke again.
“Zhao Chengkong mentioned there are frozen mutant creatures at the civilization ruins. Judging by the extraterrestrials’ movements, if they escaped, they would definitely head to the ruins to awaken those creatures.”
This was almost a consensus.
Since the extraterrestrials were discovered, it had been noticed that they rarely attacked cities but instead sought out mutant creatures to awaken them through special means. The purpose behind this remained unknown.
“Alright.” The group exchanged glances and nodded slightly before beginning to retreat.
The battle from last night had come to an end. However, for safety reasons, Dragon Mountain was temporarily sealed off, preventing ordinary people from coming to pay their respects.
By noon, Luo Zhendong and his team appeared at the entrance to the underground civilization ruins.
“If nothing unexpected happens, by this time tomorrow, the ice covering their bodies will have completely shattered.”
Luo Zhendong stood there, staring at the two mutant Tyrannosaurus Rexes covered in ice. Large portions of the ice had already fallen off, and their claws were fully exposed to the air. Part of their tails were also freed from the ice, similarly exposed to the air.
The government personnel nearby felt a chill run down their spines at this sight.
The ice covering their bodies was about to completely shatter. Would they really wake up then?
“Don’t worry about it for now. Let’s enter the ruins.”
Luo Zhendong glanced at the entrance to the ruins. The most important thing now was to see if they could obtain new armor sets inside the ruins. These armor sets significantly boosted overall strength, and the more they could get, the better. Many people still didn’t even have the third set of armor.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes, sir!”
As Luo Zhendong headed inside, the others followed closely behind him into the ruins.
“There’s no need to worry for now. They won’t awaken before tomorrow.” Luo Zhendong paused slightly as he spoke to the government workers, then continued walking inside.
“Understood.” They nodded slightly.
“When will you come out?” One of them couldn’t help but ask.
The civilization ruins looked strange, and no one knew what might be inside. If they took too long and the mutant Tyrannosaurus Rexes suddenly woke up…
Just thinking about it made their scalps tingle.
“As soon as possible. At least before they might wake up.” As Luo Zhendong spoke, he led the others inside.
“Don’t worry. If anything happens, they’ll come out immediately. I’ll be here too.” Zhao Chengkong spoke seriously as he watched them. Although his injuries hadn’t fully healed, it wasn’t a problem for him to stay and guard the area.
Thinking about his fallen comrades from last night, a fire of anger burned within him. He couldn’t rest or sleep thinking about revenge. He wanted to kill all these extraterrestrials.
“Alright, thank you, Captain Zhao.” The government workers nodded slightly.
…
Time quickly passed, and night fell.
“Hmm, there shouldn’t be anyone coming now.”
Lin Hao observed from a distant hill as he moved slowly towards Dragon Mountain.
At night, his combat power increased, and his movements became quicker. His strong night vision allowed him to see the distant surroundings clearly.
Dragon Mountain was pitch black, with no firelight visible. Lin Hao quickly reached the foot of the mountain and began ascending.
“Indeed, no one is here!”
Upon reaching the mountain, Lin Hao felt a surge of delight. It seemed everyone had left, allowing him to return to the Hualong Pond.
In the darkness, his black body moved swiftly. In a short time, he was back at the Hualong Pond.
“They seemed to have searched the Hualong Pond today but found nothing.” Lin Hao thought to himself.
The battle armor and swords in the Hualong Pond were buried under thick mud, making them undetectable.
Splash!
Without hesitation, he plunged into the Hualong Pond, causing a large splash.
Many koi swam around Lin Hao, seeming happy to see him.
“These koi have all grown to a meter long. If I stay here, they might evolve even further.”
Lin Hao had noticed that after reaching level 30, his divine ability had improved, making its effects even more pronounced.
“Hmm, this spot is good for evolving.”
He quickly found a suitable spot. As he stopped, his body seemed to merge with the mud below, becoming nearly invisible even up close.
Soon, with a thought, the system panel appeared before him.
“But this time, evolution requires 150,000 evolution points. It’s a bit painful.”
Despite his words, Lin Hao didn’t hesitate. He deducted the evolution points and initiated the upgrade.
