Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 64

Chapter 64: About to Awaken

TL: Etude

The middle-aged man felt a bit of a headache when he thought of the data on No. 002.

Since that incident, they still hadn’t found any trace of that mutated creature!

“The news of that mutated creature’s appearance has been closely monitored worldwide, but up to now, it hasn’t appeared again.” Zhang Tao also sighed.

It was simply like an invisible bomb.

Moreover, the power of this ‘bomb’ could easily destroy a city!

“After you deal with the situation in Luoming City, take some people to Longyin City to check it out.” Zhang Tao glanced at the middle-aged man beside him.

“Understood!”

…

Devoured an adult crucian carp, gained ninety evolution points.

Devoured a juvenile crucian carp, gained twenty evolution points.

Devoured…

At this moment, Lin Hao was still at the Hanshui River, continuously devouring those crucian carp and grass carp.

The number of crucian carp was relatively large, while the grass carp were fewer.

“Found another one!”

At this moment, Lin Hao clearly saw another eel appear not far ahead!

Devoured an eel, gained 150 evolution points.

He charged over at extreme speed, opened his mouth, and tore the eel into two halves, swallowing it completely in two bites.

“Five down.”

“Five eels left, and this task will be completed.”

After swallowing this eel, he looked around but saw no more creatures.

He had already devoured many fish in the Hanshui River, and only very small ones were left, which he decided not to eat.

Sustainable development, after all!

He would wait for a new batch to grow up and then come back to harvest.

“This time, let’s go to the river in the city.”

He had stayed in the Hanshui River for an hour, and the cooldown period had ended.

With a thought, a map interface appeared before his eyes.

As he selected the city river, his entire body turned into white light and disappeared from the Hanshui River, reappearing in the city river.

“Disgusting!”

Just after teleporting over, Lin Hao couldn’t help but complain.

The river was practically like a sewage pool, stinking horribly.

As he swam forward, he soon saw traces of some tilapia.

In this polluted river, the tilapia reproduced very quickly.

He charged forward, opened his mouth, and bit down!

Several large tilapia were immediately swallowed by him.

The city river was long, so this time, Lin Hao chose a different direction, heading to areas he hadn’t explored before.

As expected, there were still many tilapia in those areas.

Task completed.

Before long, the system prompt appeared.

“Five hundred tilapia, devoured!”

Seeing the system prompt, Lin Hao instantly realized he had done it.

With a thought, the system’s prompt appeared instantly before his eyes.

Normal task: Devour five hundred tilapia 500/500 (Reward: Enhanced Teeth Sharpness)

“Claim, claim!”

Seeing the completed task, Lin Hao didn’t hesitate for a moment and directly chose to claim the reward.

In that instant, he felt an itching sensation in his teeth.

This feeling didn’t last long and quickly disappeared.

“I wonder what level of sharpness my teeth have reached now,” Lin Hao mused as he tried biting his teeth together, feeling a sense of awe.

The system panel only displayed levels and overall combat power; it didn’t show specific values for the sharpness of his teeth.

“Forget it, let’s go and have a look over there.”

Lin Hao searched around and, not finding any more tilapia, headed towards the area near the civilization ruins.

Soon, he arrived at the river by the civilization ruins.

From this area, he could see that not only were government workers present on the street, but also many police officers.

The area was still cordoned off.

Lin Hao swam over slowly, using his camouflage skill so that no one could detect his presence.

“I heard the ice block below has developed cracks.”

“Do you think that if the ice block completely shatters, the Tyrannosaurus Rexes will fully awaken?”

“Impossible, it’s been frozen for who knows how many centuries.”

“…”

Lin Hao’s hearing was excellent, and he vaguely heard those people discussing in low voices.

Cracks had appeared on the ice above the frozen Tyrannosaurus Rexes?

“Damn, the T. Rex might really wake up…”

Thinking of this, he felt a bit nervous.

“But it should be able to be killed with bullets, right?”

The largest mutated creature he had seen was that mutated water snake. Although its body was tough, it would still die if subjected to heavy gunfire.

But he didn’t know if these mutated Tyrannosaurus Rexes had evolved to have even more formidable defenses.

If they evolved to the point of being bulletproof, that would be terrifying!

After calming himself, Lin Hao continued to listen to the conversations around him.

However, these people didn’t discuss the matters below much further, and soon switched to talking about government work, the difficulties of relocating people from the surrounding areas, and other such issues.

By now, the teleportation time had also ended.

Lin Hao’s body turned into waves of white light and disappeared from the spot.

The next moment, he was back in the Hualong Pond.

“Why does it feel increasingly dangerous? The world is changing really fast.” Lin Hao muttered to himself.

Giant beasts appeared in Luoming City, and civilization ruins emerged in Longyin City. He wondered if other districts would also experience strange events.

“This time, the evolution points have increased nicely, just enough to level up.”

Looking at his system panel, he could clearly see that his evolution points had risen to 22,000!

He looked around, found a previously hidden spot, and began to choose to evolve!

Twenty thousand evolution points were deducted immediately, and he slowly fell into a state of slumber.

As night fell, all the people who had come to the Dragon King Temple to worship had left.

Ripples started to spread across the surface of the Hualong Pond.

The koi in the pond began swimming around restlessly, seeming very uneasy.

Boom! Boom!

From the bottom of the Hualong Pond came a series of deep, muffled sounds.

It seemed as though something was colliding with the bottom of the pond!
