Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 149

Chapter 149: Double Joy

TL: Etude

Considering the current amount he was devouring, if he continued at this rate, it was likely that all surrounding life forms would be driven to extinction.

“Conserve energy, get ready to deal with that mutant red crab!”

Lin Hao wandered around for a short while before re-entering the pond.

As time ticked by, it quickly reached midnight!

Task Refreshed

With the system’s notification, Lin Hao, who had been resting with his eyes closed, instantly became alert.

“It’s here!”

“It’s finally here!”

The appearance of the task refresh notification meant that it was now precisely midnight.

With a thought, he immediately opened the system panel and entered the task column.

He quickly glanced at the task list with his mind.

Normal Tasks
– Devour one thousand mutant creatures: 458/1000 (Reward: Slightly enhanced corneal defense)
– Devour one hundred rice fish: 0/100 (Reward: Slightly enhanced perception)
– Devour two hundred green crabs: 0/200 (Reward: Slightly enhanced horn sharpness)

– Devour a level 4 Green Beast Warrior: 0/1

Super Difficult Tasks
– Devour a level 5 mutant sea clam: 0/1
– Devour a level 5 mutant sea loach: 0/1

“It appeared! There really is this task!”

Seeing the skills listed on the system panel, Lin Hao’s eyes were filled with delight.

He had vaguely sensed earlier that this task might appear, and now, it actually had!

“A mutant red crab, a level 5 mutant creature.”

“As long as I devour it, I can obtain a random skill.”

“Although it’s not a purple treasure chest, the random skill should be of a high level, right?”

Looking at the task list, Lin Hao couldn’t help but speak to himself.

Getting a high-level skill was quite good.

After all, the skills he currently used frequently weren’t that many, primarily Super Fire Scale and Crimson Flames.

Having other, more powerful skills would be even better!

“Great, the Super Night Battle ability has also appeared.”

Combat Power: 920

In the darkness, his combat power had reached 1058!

This was dozens of points higher than the mutant red crab’s combat power!

“But a difference of a few dozen combat points isn’t much.”

“Such a high-level mutant creature might also possess powerful skills.”

Thinking this, Lin Hao calmed his excitement.

“Ready.”

With a thought, he summoned the system map and chose to teleport!

As his body was enveloped in a white glow, in the next moment, his figure was directly transported to the estuary area!

Upon arrival, Lin Hao’s eyes began to scan the surroundings, searching for traces of the mutant creature.

With the effect of Super Night Battle, even in this dark environment, he could still clearly see his surroundings.

“Not here. It should be over there.”

After glancing around, Lin Hao immediately dashed towards the area ahead.

At his full speed, his entire body moved with terrifying swiftness, almost as if he had instantly crossed the distance to the distant area.

Additionally, Lin Hao’s perception abilities had greatly improved compared to before.

With his enhanced perception, he vaguely sensed something around the corner ahead.

“It should be here.”

All the creatures in this vicinity had been completely devoured. Besides that mutant red crab, there shouldn’t be any other mutant creatures around!

“Here comes your grandpa!”

Shouting internally, Lin Hao rounded the corner and caught sight of the massive creature’s figure!

The mutant red crab!

As expected, it was here!

At that moment, the mutant red crab was gripping a massive fish in its claw!

This fish, covered in spikes from head to tail, looked extremely fierce.

Although clamped by the crab’s pincer, the fish’s body was still struggling wildly!

Its open mouth revealed rows of densely packed teeth, still trying to bite the mutant red crab.

However, the crab’s strength was evidently superior. The massive creature could only struggle briefly before the crab’s other pincer tore off a chunk of its flesh!

“Double joy!”

Seeing this scene, Lin Hao’s eyes gleamed with delight.

Two mutant creatures!

Moreover, the massive monster fish was clearly about to be devoured by the red crab!

Lin Hao wasted no time, his entire body erupting with immense power as he charged forward with incredible speed!

Super Charge!

His hard and sharp horn aimed directly at the mutant red crab’s body!

The mutant red crab, still tearing into the monster fish’s flesh, only noticed Lin Hao’s approach at the last moment. Lin Hao’s sharp horn struck its body hard!

Bang!

With a loud, muffled sound, the horn didn’t pierce the crab’s body, but the tremendous force sent the mutant red crab flying!

The giant fish escaped from its pincer!

Though not completely dead, it turned to flee!

“No escape!”

Seeing this, Lin Hao extended his claws, grabbing the mutant monster fish’s body!

His sharp claws instantly pierced its flesh, and with a powerful yank, Lin Hao tore the fish’s body in half!

Dark red liquid flowed out as the monster fish finally died!

Without hesitation, Lin Hao swallowed the fish in large chunks. Within a short time, he had devoured the entire fish.

Though its skin was covered in many spikes, they posed no problem for Lin Hao.

Devoured level 3 mutant spiked fish, gained 70,000 evolution points.

“Just a level 3 mutant creature, and only this many evolution points.”

Lin Hao looked at the system notification and couldn’t help but complain.

Now, the required evolution points were in the hundreds of thousands, making these tens of thousands seem insufficient.

“But this level 5 mutant red crab should provide many evolution points.”

At that moment, the mutant red crab, sent flying by the impact, had already charged back!

Its eyes turned crimson, and its entire body became bright red as if it had entered a state of rage!
