Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 251

Chapter 251: Level 7, Combat Power Over Five Thousand

TL: Etude

Everyone listened to his words, their eyes filled with astonishment.

It was the first time they had heard of something called a “crystal core.”

“This item is a special crystal formed by condensing dense source energy.

Once our cultivation techniques reach a certain level, we can extract the energy from within these crystal cores to strengthen ourselves.

The source energy inside is countless times denser than what is found in the air.” At this moment, Zhang Tiansheng also revealed a smile.

After becoming a warrior, to continue getting stronger, one first had to learn cultivation techniques, then perceive the source energy in the air, and finally absorb this source energy to temper and transform their body, thereby achieving a qualitative change!

And what was source energy?

It was a special energy that originated from the depths of the universe!

However, in the Earth’s atmosphere, this source energy was scarce, so people’s cultivation speed was still very slow.

“If that’s the case, our cultivation speed would indeed increase significantly. But obtaining the crystal core of a level 7 mutant creature is very difficult.” Luo Xue, who had been sitting silently on the other side, finally spoke in a calm tone.

Her brows furrowed slightly, a faint sense of unease rising within her.

If this was true, the mutant creatures on the global mutation rankings would become primary targets for hunting.

“Yes. According to the previous classification, mutant creatures with a combat power above five thousand can be considered level 7. Of course, there are also some mutant creatures close to level 7 that might already possess a crystal core.” Zhang Tiansheng nodded slightly.

“Over five thousand combat power…”

Listening to Zhang Tiansheng’s words, everyone felt a bit overwhelmed.

The combat power of that previous mutant velociraptor was only about three thousand, right?

And only those above five thousand could be called level 7…

The combat power of truly powerful level 7 mutant creatures might even reach seven or eight thousand!

“Apart from hunting mutant creatures of corresponding levels, there is also a chance to obtain such crystal cores in the ruins of ancient civilizations. But they only appear in certain specific ruins.” Zhang Tiansheng continued to explain.

“I see. With our current capabilities, there’s no way we can hunt mutant creatures above level 7.” Many people sighed with relief at this moment.

After all, with the mutant velociraptor as a comparison, mutant creatures with a combat power of up to five thousand would be terrifyingly powerful.

“Alright, now for the final matter. There’s something underground in Longyin City.”

Zhang Tiansheng’s expression turned extremely serious.

Something underground!

As his voice fell, everyone present showed slight changes in their expressions.

At this moment, photos taken from below began to play on the projection screen.

Most of those present had already seen them and had even visited the underground space to see it up close.

Seeing these photos again, they still felt a strong sense of shock.

“This ‘ruin’ is somewhat special, completely different from the ancient ruins we’ve seen before.”

“Using the life force scanning capability while wearing the Type 1 Battle Suit, I could detect faint life force fluctuations from some of the stone sculptures.”

Zhang Tiansheng placed his hands on the table, looking at everyone with a severe expression.

Life force fluctuations!

Hearing his words, everyone present narrowed their eyes slightly.

“Could these Behemoth stone sculptures really come to life!?” A high-ranking government official couldn’t help but voice their concern.

A new wave of trouble was rising before the previous one had settled!

“I can’t guarantee it. But the possibility should be low. It might be that some bacteria or microorganisms remaining in these stone sculptures caused the detection of faint life signs.” Zhang Tiansheng continued speaking at this moment.

Despite his words, Zhang Tiansheng was still a bit worried.

After all, if all these Behemoth statues were to come back to life, it would be a huge disaster!

“Stone turning back into living creatures should be impossible.”

Li Ye pondered for a moment, still feeling that the possibility was very low.

However, given the current situation, with so many Behemoths constantly awakening, it wasn’t entirely impossible for these stone sculptures to turn into living creatures.

It was truly a headache.

“We can’t confirm this, but what we must do now is guard this entrance. We mustn’t let anyone from the EL organization or ET get in contact with it.” Zhang Tiansheng continued in a serious tone. “After all, the stone sculpture of the Five-Headed Dragon inside gives me a very uncomfortable feeling. I’m afraid it might come to life.”

At the mention of the “Five-Headed Dragon,” everyone could see the Behemoth stone sculpture with five dragon heads on the projection screen.

This was the most worrisome.

Given its enormous body length, if such a creature were to come to life, the entire Longyin City would be doomed!

“Indeed. We’ve already rooted out all the traitors, and from now on, we’ll be increasing the scrutiny of everyone entering and leaving Longyin City. We also have surveillance in the various forests. Even if someone tries to sneak in by crossing the mountains, they can’t completely hide themselves.” A middle-aged man added in a solemn tone.

Previously, Zhao Ming and his team had managed to infiltrate Longyin City by wearing Type 2 battle suits and traversing the mountains.

Under such circumstances, it was very difficult to stop them from infiltrating.

“Good. Now, the concentration of the virus in the air is continuously increasing. More people might go to the hospital due to discomfort, so we need to monitor this closely. And our people who meet the requirements can start getting vaccinated against the virus.” Zhang Tiansheng continued speaking.

“Understood.” Everyone nodded slightly at this moment.

“A week from now, specialists from headquarters will come to inspect the underground ruins again.

Today’s meeting is adjourned.

Meeting dismissed!”

…

Late at night, under the clear moonlight, a huge figure burst out of the water in the Hualong Pond!

Splash!

A large amount of water splashed in all directions.

“Level 52.”

“And a lot of scales have grown back. By tomorrow, they should be fully restored.”

Lin Hao’s figure emerged from the water, glancing at his back. It was clear that many small black scales had already grown in the previously injured area.

In another day, these scales would fully recover.

With a thought, the system panel appeared before him:
