Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 32

Chapter 32: Increased Bite Force

TL: Etude

Swallow!

Keep swallowing!

The number of these tilapia was truly overwhelming.

Devouring them like crazy and watching the evolution points skyrocket felt incredibly satisfying.

Devoured an adult tilapia, gained 50 evolution points.

Devoured a juvenile tilapia, gained 20 evolution points.

Devoured…

…

The system notifications continued incessantly.

The constant ‘ding ding ding’ of notifications kept ringing out.

“Awesome!”

He didn’t know how much time had passed, but eventually, all the tilapia in this area had been consumed.

“Congratulations, Host, on achieving the title of Tilapia Hunter (My heavens, you actually ate more than three hundred tilapia!)”

“Congratulations, Host, on receiving the achievement reward: Normal Treasure Chest.”

Upon closer inspection, it seemed an achievement had also been unlocked.

“I didn’t notice before, but there’s actually an achievement now.”

Lin Hao’s eyes lit up slightly at the system prompt.

He had been awarded another normal treasure chest!

“A blue chest would be preferable, but this is better than nothing.”

At this moment, Lin Hao was a bit eager.

Without any hesitation, he claimed the chest and chose to open it immediately!

Soon, a phantom image of a white chest appeared before him.

With a creaking sound, the chest began to open slowly.

As before, once the chest opened, several attributes could be seen rotating slowly within it.

Strength Enhancement, Speed Enhancement, Sturdy Fins, Bubble Blowing…

“The same attributes as before.”

“All of them are white.”

After rotating for a while, the attributes slowly came to a stop.

Increased Bite Force

“Increased bite force?”

“Not bad.”

Seeing the final attribute, Lin Hao felt it was acceptable.

At least it was useful.

Soon, he felt a slight tingling sensation in his gums.

However, this feeling didn’t last long and gradually faded away.

“So the bite force has increased?”

Lin Hao subconsciously bit down a few times, indeed feeling a bit more powerful.

This newfound strength was quite exhilarating.

“Let’s see if there are more tilapia up ahead.”

This time, he had certainly eaten his fill.

The abundance of tilapia here was much greater than in the Hanshui River.

As he continued upstream, he noticed the river channel had become much narrower and was filled with various strange algae.

“Huh?”

“Shrimp?”

Soon, he spotted some shrimp among the algae.

Lin Hao’s eyes brightened, and he quickly moved his body, accelerating rapidly towards the area.

Opening his mouth, he swallowed the shrimp in one gulp!

Devouring an adult crawfish earned 15 evolution points.
Devouring…

…

More system notifications quickly followed.

“Only fifteen evolution points?!”

Seeing the system prompt, Lin Hao felt a bit disappointed.

As expected, these more common creatures provided fewer evolution points than regular ones.

Even river shrimp provided thirty evolution points.

“But there seem to be quite a lot of these crawfish.”

Lin Hao continued swimming forward.

Fire Scales!

At this moment, he activated his skill.

As soon as the skill was activated, his entire body began to emit a fiery glow from his scales.

Gurgle gurgle!

The surrounding river water began to boil at this moment.

The nearby water temperature also started to rise!

“Excellent, they’re all here!”

Many crawfish that had been hiding nearby began to emerge!

“Heh heh.”

Seeing this, Lin Hao immediately opened his mouth and started devouring the exposed crawfish crazily.

With one mouthful, he swallowed several at once!

It didn’t matter what it was, as long as there was something to eat.

The feeling of evolution points continually increasing was incredibly exhilarating!

As he kept devouring the crawfish, a flash of light appeared, and his body disappeared from the original spot.

“Time’s up already?”

“Too bad, or I could have gained even more evolution points.”

Looking at himself now back in the Hualong Pond, Lin Hao felt a bit helpless.

Happy times always passed so quickly.

“Let’s see how many evolution points I’ve accumulated.”

Evolution Points: 26,745/5,000

“Holy crap!”

“The evolution points have reached twenty-six thousand already!?”

Seeing this, Lin Hao’s eyes widened.

He had not expected the evolution points to increase so much!

This was incredibly satisfying!

“There are still so many crawfish upstream. If I look for more tilapia, there should be some left.”

“After evolving, I’ll go there for another round of harvesting!”

Thinking this, he found a spot in the Hualong Pond and immediately chose to evolve!

Five thousand evolution points were deducted instantly, and he entered the state of evolution!

“Just now, I think I saw a big fish?”

“Did I imagine it?”

A man walking by the shore seemed to glimpse a very large fish in the Hualong Pond.

“What big fish?”

“Aren’t they just carp?”

His friend laughed, seeing him standing there in a daze.

Looking closely, several large carp were indeed swimming under the bridge.

“Yeah, maybe I was mistaken.”

…

“I’m serious, there really is a monster in that river!”

“I seriously suspect that the excessive sewage discharge from the Longyin Chemical Plant caused the organisms there to mutate!”

The group that had been fishing for tilapia earlier had now reported the matter to the police station.

“Monster?”

“What kind of monster?”

Two auxiliary police officers looked at him curiously.

“A fish!”

“A fish over two meters long, with a single horn on its head!”

The middle-aged man, who was also their boss, gestured with his hands as he spoke.

“Yes, yes!”

The others nodded quickly.

Recalling the scene they had witnessed earlier made their scalps tingle and their lips quiver.

“Is it a fish like this?”

The two auxiliary police officers exchanged a glance and then drew a picture of a one-horned fish on a piece of paper.

“No, no, this fish also emitted flames!”

One of the men shook his head after looking at the drawing.

“Emitted flames?” The auxiliary police officers were taken aback and exchanged another look before stifling a laugh.

“What are you laughing at? We’re serious!” They couldn’t help but speak up.

“Ahem, we are professionally trained and would never laugh. You’re saying this fish is over two meters long, has a horn on its head, and emits flames, correct?” They straightened up and spoke seriously.

“Yes, yes! Monster, it’s a monster!” Their boss’s body trembled slightly as he spoke.
