Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 319

Chapter 319: All-Skills Upgrade Card!

TL: Etude

[Heaven-Sent Good Fortune!]

[Congratulations, Host, for opening a purple treasure chest and obtaining a pink entry reward!]

At that moment, as four golden characters appeared, Lin Hao’s eyes widened.

“Damn!”

“What did I get?!”

Seeing the system prompt, Lin Hao was completely bewildered. He initially thought it was just a purple treasure chest and that he would randomly receive a purple entry.

But now…

[Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the All-Skills Upgrade Card!]

“Huh?”

“What is this thing?”

Upon closer inspection, he saw that what he had obtained was a pink entry!

[Would you like to claim it immediately?]

Soon, the system prompt appeared again.

“Claim!”

Without any hesitation, Lin Hao chose to claim it. In that instant, a card emitting a pink glow appeared before his eyes.

[All-Skills Upgrade Card] (Pink): After use, it can upgrade all the host’s skills that haven’t reached purple level to purple level.

“This thing… seems pretty good!”

Seeing the description, Lin Hao’s eyes brightened slightly. Previously, many of the random skills he had obtained were blue level.

Lin Hao glanced briefly at them and decided to use the All-Skills Upgrade Card immediately. In that instant, as a pink light spread out, changes appeared on the system panel.

All the skills that hadn’t reached purple level transformed to purple level instantly!

“Great!”

Lin Hao felt a bit of joy at this sight. His frequently used skill, Crimson Flames, had been at the blue level when he obtained it. Although its power increased as his strength grew, there was still a noticeable gap.

Now that it had upgraded to purple level, its power should have increased significantly.

“If it reaches gold level…”

Recalling the terrifying power his randomly enhanced skill, Crimson Flames, exhibited at gold level, Lin Hao felt a bit of anticipation.

[Golden Eyes] (Purple): Pale golden vertical pupils that enhance strength and allow the user to view the opponent’s combat power (can be used ten times daily).

[Black Iron Scales] (Purple): The scales all over the body become as hard as black iron for a short period!

[Sensory Whiskers] (Purple): Grants special sensory abilities and a certain probability of foresight.

…

Scanning through, he noticed that the skills had undergone noticeable changes after upgrading to purple level.

Not bad at all.

Glancing around, Lin Hao continued to swim forward.

At the riverbank area, there were still quite a few smaller mutant scavenger fish, some of which appeared to have been shot in the head, their corpses lying on the riverbank.

“Better not let them go to waste.”

Seeing these corpses, Lin Hao rushed over and devoured all the mutant scavenger fish corpses.

[Devoured a level 1 Mutant Scavenger, gained 3000 evolution points]

[Devoured a level 1 Mutant Scavenger, gained 4000 evolution points]

[…]

Most of these mutant scavenger fish were level 1, and each provided around three to four thousand evolution points.

“They’re all gone so quickly.”

After a short time, Lin Hao realized that all the mutant scavenger fish on this riverbank had been devoured.

This left Lin Hao somewhat helpless. He had hoped to devour more mutant scavenger fish, but now there were none left in the vicinity!

This scene starkly contrasted with the densely packed situation earlier.

“Aside from this river, there should be mutant scavenger fish in other rivers in East City, right? Let’s go check it out!”

Lin Hao glanced around and swam towards another area. His speed was very fast, and in no time, he had reached a distant region.

“I knew there would be more mutant scavenger fish here.”

Upon arriving, Lin Hao immediately noticed a large number of mutant scavenger fish! Although the quantity was not as high as the previous location, it was still quite substantial. However, they were smaller in size, so the evolution points gained from devouring them might not be much.

But Lin Hao didn’t care about that now. As long as he could gain evolution points, it was fine!

Devour!

In an instant, he opened his massive jaws and began devouring frantically.

…

“Captain, there are so many mutant scavenger fish here, and they’ve proliferated to such an extent. If we don’t do something, won’t they continue to mutate…”

Meanwhile, the members of the HXLZ team from East City had started walking towards a riverbank in the northern part of the river.

One of the women looked at the man leading the group as she walked.

“The chances of further mutation are low.

If mutant creatures continue to mutate and evolve, it typically happens in two scenarios.

One is due to the influence of the GT virus, but this influence is usually determined at the initial stage of mutation.

For example, a creature that initially mutates into a level 3 mutant creature will almost always stay at that level, with very little chance of further mutation.

The second scenario is when these mutant creatures consume a large number of other mutant creatures, especially those stronger than themselves, which might allow them to continue mutating and evolving, but this takes a long time.

By then, those ETs and the intelligent beings behind them will likely have already arrived on Earth. At that point, dealing with mutant creatures in the rivers will be the least of our worries…”

Hearing this, the group members’ expressions turned serious.

Regarding the ETs, more information had been released within HXLZ. The ETs currently on Earth were just the ‘dogs’ of more advanced intelligent beings!

The real intelligent beings behind them had yet to arrive on Earth!

Once those advanced intelligent beings arrived, the changes to Earth would be unimaginable!

“Huh?!”

As they were thinking and walking forward, their eyes widened in shock as they looked towards the riverbank ahead.

Their eyes were filled with disbelief.

“How is this possible…”

The leading man was stunned for a moment, but quickly regained his composure and rushed forward!

The corpses of the mutant scavenger fish he had just shot in the head were gone!

Moreover, not only that, but the traces of mutant scavenger fish in the river also seemed to have vanished!

What was going on!?

“How could… they all be gone!?”
