Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 160
Chapter 160: Review and New Information
TL: Etude
Prepare to evolve!
After calming himself down, Lin Hao focused his thoughts. In an instant, seven hundred thousand evolution points were deducted!
As the evolution points were deducted, he slowly began to fall into a state of slumber.
After this evolution, he would reach level forty!
Reaching level forty would bring another qualitative change!
“I’ve also heard about the situation over at Dragon Mountain. It seems that the arrival of those ETs might have triggered something, causing the entire mountain’s flora and fauna to undergo mutations.”
“And these mutations appear to be quite evident.”
Late at night, at the Longyin Research Center, many people sat around the surrounding seats, watching the images displayed on the projection screen above.
The images were clearly pictures of Dragon Mountain.
In the pictures, one could distinctly see many towering trees, enormous flowers, and even some wild boars that had become extraordinarily robust.
Just looking at these images made people feel astonished.
“I went to see it today. The source energy there also seems to be noticeably richer.”
Luo Xue, who was sitting nearby, spoke up at this moment.
She had been cultivating beside the Hualong Pond for a while and could clearly feel the dense energy fluctuations in the surrounding air.
These energy fluctuations were obviously stronger than those in other areas.
“Much stronger?” Luo Zhendong, who was sitting on the other side, listened to Luo Xue’s words and asked curiously.
“Not that much.” Luo Xue thought for a moment, then shook her head.
Although the energy concentration in that area was higher than in other regions, it wasn’t significantly higher.
“Then it should be quite normal. In the mountains and forests, source energy is usually more concentrated.” Luo Zhendong nodded slightly and didn’t think much of it.
“Source energy?” Some of the researchers present were a bit puzzled.
They had not yet become warriors who could fully accept the virus, so they weren’t very familiar with this source energy.
“Source energy is a special type of energy originating from the depths of the universe. Once our bodies fully accept the virus and evolve, we can cultivate through special techniques. The purpose of cultivation is to absorb the special energy in the air to strengthen our physical bodies.” Luo Zhendong glanced at everyone and explained seriously.
“Luo Zhendong is right.” Zhang Tiansheng also nodded slightly.
Because there were no immediate dangers at the ruins of the civilization, they had come up and rotated another team to guard the site.
If anything happened, they would rush over in a short time.
“According to the information we have, although the flora and fauna near Dragon Mountain have mutated, there are no other anomalies. For now, we don’t need to worry about it.” Zhang Tiansheng continued.
“By the way, Mr. Zhang, I’ve heard that many people are going to the Dragon King Temple to worship. Should we prohibit this?” A middle-aged man seemed to recall something and spoke up.
In the meeting room, there were not only people from the Longyin Research Center but also government officials.
“I have heard about this situation. Is it said to be very effective?” Zhang Tiansheng, upon hearing his words, paused slightly and then suddenly smiled.
“We are firm materialists.” Upon hearing Zhang Tiansheng’s words, a few people awkwardly laughed.
“Maybe it’s just their psychological effect. But there’s no need to stop them.” Zhang Tiansheng shook his head.
“This place can serve as a testing ground.” He spoke seriously.
“Testing ground?” Everyone was slightly taken aback by his words, with confusion evident in their eyes.
A testing ground? What did he mean by that?
“The effects of the virus will become more widespread, and eventually, the entire Earth will undergo mutations.
This is inevitable.
And the number of mutant creatures is increasing, making it impossible to conceal many things now.
Let’s allow ordinary people to first experience and adapt to the mutations at Dragon Mountain.”
Zhang Tiansheng continued with a smile.
He was aware, through the latest news, that there were numerous reports about the massive growth of plants near Dragon Mountain. Additionally, the news about the Dragon King Temple’s efficacy had attracted many people to the area.
“Mr. Zhang is right. This matter can’t be hidden forever.” The people exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
“Next, let’s talk about the current situation in Longyin City.” Zhang Tiansheng stood up, his gaze sweeping across the room, his expression becoming serious.
Hearing his words, the faces of the people also grew solemn, their eyes focused on Zhang Tiansheng.
“After several days of interrogation, we managed to extract some information from the two members of the EL organization using special methods.
Firstly, there is one infiltrator in our Longyin Research Center, two in the government, and two among the soldiers.” Zhang Tiansheng continued in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the people changed slightly.
The EL organization had infiltrated so many people!
“Now these individuals… Have all been dealt with.” Zhang Tiansheng continued.
Before the interrogation results came out, many people were controlled and prohibited from leaving Longyin City.
After the interrogation, some tried to escape but couldn’t.
Some committed suicide, while others were captured.
“That’s good.” Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
The fear was that these individuals hadn’t been identified or had escaped.
“We also learned that the EL organization has clear contact with those extraterrestrial beings. And they are collaborating.” Zhang Tiansheng continued in a deep voice.
“They’re collaborating with those ETs!? They must be crazy!” A man couldn’t help but exclaim upon hearing Zhang Tiansheng’s words.
It sounded shocking.
These people were colluding with extraterrestrial beings!?
That was truly anti-human!
“They are indeed lunatics.” Luo Zhendong snorted coldly.
“This time, they infiltrated our ranks and used a machine that emitted low-frequency ultrasonic waves to stimulate the awakening of the mutant creatures.”
“They intended to have the mutant creatures overrun Longyin City. But during this process, one mutant creature seemed to help us.” As Zhang Tiansheng pressed a button, the image on the projection screen changed.
A gigantic figure emitting golden flames appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Around this massive figure, many scorched mutant rats could be seen.
“This photo captures it near the civilization ruins, devouring those mutant rats.”
