Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 130
Chapter 130: Corrosive Claws
TL: Etude
Seeing the skill’s description, Lin Hao’s eyes lit up with excitement.
“This ability seems pretty good.”
With a thought, Lin Hao actively released this skill.
As the skill was activated, his skin instantly blended with the surrounding environment. When he approached a rock, his skin’s color and texture completely matched the stone, making him appear like a part of it. As he moved to another area, his entire body’s color and texture changed accordingly.
“So strong! This camouflage makes it even harder for anyone to detect me!” Lin Hao thought excitedly. “It’s just a pity that I didn’t earn many evolution points today.”
Reflecting on today’s events, he felt a bit wistful. The main issue was that he still couldn’t communicate with others, making it impossible to negotiate or set terms.
“What a shame about the other mutant Tyrannosaurus. But could there be more mutant creatures in this ancient civilization’s ruins?”
The mutant rats encountered today must have come from those ruins. It would be great to explore them.
“When can I speak? This is so frustrating.”
Unable to talk, Lin Hao could only monologue internally, which was extremely aggravating. After swimming around the Hualong Pond for a while, he remembered that he had completed some tasks earlier.
Let’s take a look!
Difficult Task: Devour the Mutant Tyrannosaurus.
Today, the only task he completed was devouring the mutant Tyrannosaurus.
Purple Treasure Chest!
“Claim!”
Without hesitation, Lin Hao chose to claim his reward.
Open now?
Soon, the system prompted again.
“Yes!”
In an instant, the purple-glowing treasure chest appeared before Lin Hao. As it slowly opened, he saw numerous entries, almost all of which were purple. Since purple chests guaranteed purple-quality entries, there were also chances for pink and gold entries, though those were rare.
As the entries started spinning, Lin Hao felt a bit nervous.
It has to land on something useful!
He silently urged. What he needed most were sharp claws, sharp teeth, or incredibly tough skin. As he encountered increasingly powerful mutant creatures with higher defense capabilities, breaking through their defenses became more challenging.
“Here it comes!”
The spinning entries visibly slowed down. Lin Hao held his breath as he watched.
The next moment, the spinning entries stopped.
Corrosive Claws.
Seeing the stopped entry, Lin Hao could clearly see his reward this time.
“Corrosive Claws?!”
“Seems pretty good!”
Seeing this, Lin Hao’s eyes immediately brightened.
Corrosive Claws were sharp and, when attacking, they carried a certain corrosive toxin, providing a degree of armor-piercing capability.
“Excellent!”
Reading the entry’s description again, Lin Hao felt a rush of excitement.
It was as if a pillow had appeared just when he needed to rest! This skill was extremely useful for him at this stage.
In the next moment, the entry turned into four purple lights, which dispersed to his limbs. Instantly, his claws began to shed, but there was no pain, only a tingling sensation from his claws.
Quickly, longer and sharper claws grew out at a visible speed.
Seeing this, Lin Hao’s eyes widened in amazement.
In no time, his claws were completely replaced.
“These claws are significantly sharper! Time to test them out!”
Just looking at his claws, Lin Hao could tell they were now longer and sharper, reflecting a cold gleam.
Sharp! Extremely sharp!
Splash!
The next moment, his massive body leapt out of the Hualong Pond, sending water splashing everywhere. Many small animals nearby scattered in fright.
Lin Hao glanced around and crawled towards a nearby area. Night had already fallen, so there were no people around.
Soon, he found a large rock. Standing before it, Lin Hao struck it with his claw!
Tear!
The hard rock, which seemed as tough as tofu, was easily shredded into pieces by Lin Hao’s claws.
“These claws are unbelievably sharp!”
Seeing how effortlessly his claws tore through the rock, Lin Hao’s eyes filled with astonishment.
Upon closer inspection, he noticed wisps of white smoke rising from the torn stone.
Corrosion effect!
Each attack with his claws carried a special corrosive effect!
“Excellent! It looks like my claws have improved tremendously! If I fought that mutant Tyrannosaurus again, I wouldn’t even need to bite it. My claws alone should be able to rip its body apart!”
Thinking this, his eyes gleamed with excitement. Previously, both the mutant earth dragon and the mutant Tyrannosaurus had incredibly strong defenses, their tough bodies could even withstand bullets! Breaking through their defenses had been no easy task.
But now, with these sharp corrosive claws, breaking through their defenses should be much easier!
Moreover, with the corrosive effect, even if he encountered a level 3 or 4 Green Beast Warrior, their armor shouldn’t be able to withstand his attacks!
“Heh, not bad.”
Lin Hao was very satisfied.
“Right, I still have some teleportation time left today. Should I teleport to the seaside and take a look?”
As his level increased, the areas he could teleport to expanded. The system map now included the coastal area of Longyin City!
“Let’s take a look!”
With a mere thought, Lin Hao teleported away.
