 Chapter 27 Targeted Evolution

  You Huan's arrival caused a violent reaction from the snake group.

  Changes in color and body temperature can fool all humans, but they cannot fool snakes' extremely sensitive senses of chemical molecules, nor their bodies' ability to perceive vibrations of solids.

  However, it was the mating season, and the snakes in the distance were still entangled, with only a few giant pythons nearby crawling over.

  Led by a giant python that was over thirty meters long and had scales as thick as a tank, they opened their snake mouths to intimidate You Huan!

  And You Huan also set his eyes on the giant python leading the group.

  "Roar..." He made a low sound from his throat and moved his feet at the same time.

  The group of giant pythons were attracted by his movements and crawled towards him while maintaining an intimidating posture.

  A moment later, he disappeared into the jungle with the snakes.

  As for the other giant pythons, they were still immersed in... cough cough cough.

  As soon as You Huan took the prey away, he showed his fangs.

  He leaped into the air and passed over the raised snake heads in an instant. On his powerful hind legs, the sharp claws gleaming with golden light stretched out several centimeters.

  With a "bang", the sharp claws first pierced into the leading python's body three inches deep, and then the sole of the foot pressed down and stepped its head directly into the mud.

  Before the surrounding snakes rushed over, the sharp claws that pierced the python's head branched out and grew like branches, piercing into its brain.

  The thick scale armor defense that it was proud of was no longer effective after its sharp claws pierced into the flesh and blood for the first time through the gap provided by the [Science of Killing].

  You Huan was like a fisherman who had caught a big fish. He picked up the still twisting body of the giant python with his front paws, and leaped away from the snake group before the python next to him could attack.

  At this time, more giant pythons had sensed the movement and crawled over, but You Huan had already caught the prey that was four times his own length and left.

  The giant pythons, which were obviously not very smart, crawled on the spot for a while and then returned to the basin full of blood orchids.

  You Huan started to eat the spicy strips again and found that this time the spicy strips gave him a surprise.

  [Evolution Points (Advanced) +0.5]

  Although you only get 0.5 advanced evolution points by eating a whole stick of spicy noodles, there are countless giant pythons in the Satan Basin!

  Of course, compared to the giant pythons, You Huan was more interested in the blood orchid that created so many mutated giant pythons.

  In this world, the amber that preserves dinosaur blood has magical effects, so can he also find something at the source of blood orchid?

  Before the human team collecting blood orchid arrives, he should go check it out as soon as possible.

  But before that…

  He returned to the edge of the Satan Basin and set his sights on the giant python that had grown limbs.

  He deliberately walked to the side close to the giant python and even threw pebbles to attract its attention.

  "Rustle, rustle..."

  The lizard was indeed enraged, and it left the tangled snake ball. Its limbs moved quickly like a crocodile, and it crawled over quickly using the crawling method of its snake body.

  You Huan originally wanted to use the same trick again and use the hypertrophic bone spurs to pierce the giant python's brain and kill it quickly.

  But this time, before his sharp claws pierced the flesh of the lizard, the flow of action in [Science of Killing] suddenly changed.

  He reacted extremely quickly and moved sideways immediately.

  The lizard dodged his claws with extraordinary agility, and used the dense muscles all over its body to flick its front half forward like lightning in an instant.

  The snake's wide-open mouth suddenly closed, biting nothing.

  You Huan noticed the two fangs in its mouth.

  If it had not dodged quickly under the guidance of [Science of Killing] and the reaction speed of [Adaptive Instinct], the lizard would have succeeded.

  In his field of vision, precise data and flowing lines are still guiding his actions.

  You Huan flicked his tail, providing him with the power to charge forward again.

  This lizard is poisonous, and has a very fast speed and reaction ability, so although its scales are not as thick as the previous one, it is not so easy to kill.

  Facing You Huan's attack, the lizard moved its limbs and dodged with extreme flexibility, like a slippery loach.

  However, at a certain moment of retreat, it suddenly froze in place.

  A sharp claw broke through the original length limit and pierced into its head head-on.

  The next second, its heart was also pierced.  

  You Huan bent down and fiddled with the limbs of the dead lizard.

  If Dr. Wu were here, he would definitely be interested to see so many mutated snakes.

  As for him, he could only hold back the tears that could not help but flow down his face, thanking nature for the gift of spicy noodles...

  [Evolution Points (Advanced) +0.5]

  He collected 1 advanced evolution point, plus the one point he got from the Indominus Rex, a total of two points, which he immediately added to his level.

  [Level: Lv.10→Lv.11 (0/4)]

  After level 10, the feeling of upgrading is much stronger than before.

  A vigorous sense of power surged from every part of my body, and my physical fitness reached a new level.

  Another difference from previous upgrades is that this time, he found that the enhanced sense of strength coming from his limbs was particularly obvious.

  In comparison, the strengthening of other parts of the body is much weaker.

  Before he could study the differences carefully, a dense rustling sound came from the direction of the basin.

  The disappearance of the two giant pythons, which were considered the best among the snake group, finally attracted the attention of the entire snake group!

  There was a "rustling" sound from the bushes, and a long black shadow suddenly rose into the air and attacked You Huan first.

  You Huan wanted to try out his limbs which seemed to have been extra strengthened, so he did not step back, but leaned half of his body back with his front paws raised.

  With a "bang", a big bag of blood was thrown directly at the oncoming giant python.

  With a "bang", the giant python was knocked directly into the mud on the ground. It twisted a few times and then stopped moving.

  You Huan was greatly surprised. He didn't know whether the giant python was knocked unconscious or killed by just one slap. This was the level of a martial arts master!

  At this time, the second, the third... countless giant pythons had twisted their bodies and rushed out of the jungle.

  He pushed his feet lightly, and unlike the usual slightly heavy and labored feeling, the strengthened leg muscles made him as light as a swallow, and he jumped nearly ten meters high.

  The limbs of many carnivorous dinosaurs play less role in combat than their heads, and the same is true for You Huan.

  But at the same time, he is quite accustomed to using his limbs. The combination of limbs and sharp teeth can give him many more options in combat.

  This time, the upgrade focused on improving the physical fitness of his limbs!

  He had an understanding in his heart.

  After level 10, each upgrade should focus on strengthening certain body parts instead of a very balanced improvement.

  What he thinks in his head does not hinder his actions.

  After strengthening his already very useful limbs, he immediately transformed into a "Kung Fu hero" and flew over a group of giant pythons.

  Before the pythons could react, he had already rushed into the Satan Basin behind them.

  Because almost all the giant pythons came out, the Satan Basin was empty and deserted at this time.

  You Huan walked through the clusters of blood orchids. The attractive fragrance emitted by these blood-like flowers lingered around his mouth and nose.

  He picked one and put it in his mouth to taste——

  There was no on-screen prompt, nor did he experience the "XX he ate instantly turning into a hot stream and entering his body" as is often described in novels.

  He recalled what he had seen in Dr. Wu's report.

  If blood orchid is not specially treated, it will only have a particularly obvious effect on snakes.

  It is initially speculated that this targeting is because the snakes have lived in the blood orchid growth area all year round, and some kind of invisible symbiosis has been achieved between the two, or the chemical substances secreted by the snakes have affected the blood orchid.

  --"source".

  He had seen Dr. Wu write this on a piece of paper thrown into the wastebasket.

  "Perhaps, like the amber, there is something that affects the birth of the blood orchid - the place where the blood orchid grows. Perhaps there is an ultimate reason, a 'source', that makes the blood orchid so special."

  He wrote the last word "源" in Chinese and circled it several times.

  Dr. Wu's writing seems to hint at something deeper than the "source."
