Chapter 256: Dormancy, Gene Completion

After most of the day, You Huan noticed that the black water vitality on Holloway was getting stronger.

But there was no complete embryo, instead a very loose structure was formed.

It seems to be similar to the movie, and it needs another "infection" before it can take shape.

He stood on a high place, overlooking the convoy as it entered the preliminarily built base amid the crowd.

With the help of high technology, these people built a temporary defense wall very quickly, but he didn't think these two walls could protect against the black water life or the white giants.

After the convoy entered between the first and second walls, they underwent a full-body physical examination using instruments brought out from the spacecraft before they were finally allowed to enter.

Obviously, even if these people were cautious, they couldn't completely guard against black water.

Holloway, who was thoroughly infected by the black water, showed no abnormalities at all during the physical examination.

The black water spores that infected him were able to hide from ordinary medical examination instruments by dispersing them throughout his body without producing embryos.

Because this group of people had only discovered cases of people being parasitized after being attacked by black water life, and they did not know that black water could also be a plague.

So they haven't realized the need to quarantine people who come back from outside.

You Huan just watched them enter the base with a mobile black water source.

The scout who was standing guard on the wall seemed to have noticed something and adjusted the light screen in front of him: "Why did a monitor suddenly turn just now? Did you find anything?"

He adjusted the angle between the fixed monitor and the reconnaissance drone.

When the picture was aimed at a high slope in the southwest direction, the slope was clean and there were no living creatures.

You Huan had already returned to the vicinity of the spacecraft, quietly waiting for the situation on the human side to reach a certain point.

Now, David has brought back black water samples and may have begun research; Holloway is deeply infected and is not far from falling ill.

I'm afraid these colonists will get into chaos soon.

To be honest, it's not impossible for him to save these people if he wanted to. For example, he could completely prevent Holloway from coming into contact with the black water spores, or prevent David from finding the black water.

But some things should be resolved by humans themselves. He is not a human now, and he is not in the same group with them. Why should he save everyone?

As for letting David, the "villain", find Blackwater, on the one hand, even if he is not there, David will try his best to find Blackwater, because Blackwater can enable him, the bionic man, to achieve "creation".

On the other hand, David is the real creator of the aliens, and You Huan needs him to create "more perfect" black water life and use them to complete his genes.

The chess pieces have been placed, and it all depends on what happens in the next few days.

While sorting out the action plan, You Huan paused at the door of the spaceship.

The sense of homology came quickly.

He immediately exerted force in the opposite direction and retreated rapidly—

"Bang!"

A huge pit appeared in front of him.

"hiss..."

Saliva that was almost as pure as water dripped from the side of its mouth. An extremely tall and strong black water creature slowly raised its head, as if gazing deeply at You Huan.

It was the monster that had chased him!

"Hiss…"

Behind it, the sound of leaves rustling could be heard.

One after another, black water creatures, big and small, emerged from the jungle, saliva constantly flowing from their mouths, standing silently in a posture ready to attack at any time.

This situation surprised You Huan a little.

It hasn't been long since then, and this black water creature that is suspected to be transformed from the white giant has gained so many followers?

How did it do this?

All life forms born from the black water in the spacecraft were, without exception, highly aggressive and had not evolved the coordination capabilities of true aliens.

So at least You Huan can't unite so many monsters.

However, considering the strange abilities of the white giants that attacked the colonists before, perhaps they have the special ability to command the black water monsters.

Facing this black water monster that almost killed him, and its many subordinates.

He was not panicked at all.

Not to mention that his level has been raised to level four.

Blackwater life will experience an extremely rapid growth period after birth, and will transform from a larva to an adult in a very short time.

So is he.

After two days, his abilities in all aspects have fully matured, and he is several times stronger than before when he was chased by it.

After showing off his power, the White Giant Black Water Life did not hesitate and attacked him like a human charging forward.

But he is faster than it!

The high speed of this monster mainly comes from its strong muscles, while You Huan's high speed comes more from his body shape that is specially designed for speed.

With a quick turn, he dodged the opponent's direct attack in the blink of an eye.

He first jumped up, spread his sickle wings, and glided over the black water creatures.

Then it stretched out its front paws and, as it landed, used inertia to pierce the head of a black water creature.

This black water creature is a rare species. It should have been transformed from a flying creature in this jungle, retaining certain bird body shape and wing structure.

Because they were few in number and moved quickly, he had never encountered one before.

This white giant Black Water Life came for revenge, and brought a bunch of minions with him, bringing his desired target right to his mouth, which was quite polite to say.

He grabbed the body of the bird-like Black Water Life with one hand, twisted his body suddenly, and spread his sickle wings like rotating blades to cut into pieces all the monsters that pounced on him from all around.

"Hiss…Roar!"

Seeing that the enemy was frantically killing its own brothers, the white giant black water creature let out a human-like roar and pounced forward.

Upon seeing this, You Huan immediately retreated, and at the same time, a tail swung out from behind, and with a "ding-dong" sound, it blocked the inner molars that shot out of the opponent's mouth.

The molars bit the tail making a "crunching" sound, but after several gene additions, the exoskeleton, which had become extremely tough, deformed slightly with the shape of the teeth and could never be bitten through.

At this moment, the poison hook at the end of You Huan's tail bent.

First, three sharp claws grab the back half of the inner molar and fix it, and then the poison hook pierces into it.

The white giant black water creature immediately felt the front half of its face stiffen.

Just like that, You Huan calmly pulled the tail out of its paralyzed mouth, and before it could take the next step, he grabbed a few of its little brothers, leaped back a few steps, and retreated back into the depths of the jungle.

A few seconds passed after he disappeared, and it shook its head violently, and the uncomfortable numbness in its mouth finally disappeared.

Although it was no longer a civilized white giant, it still felt a vague sense of anger at being tricked, and roared to the sky:

"Roar!"

The sound was not like the slightly hoarse roar of ordinary black water creatures. It was deep and low, like the roar of a human on the verge of going crazy.

The sound travels very, very far.

When the wandering white giants still in the forest heard this vague and low voice, they shuddered all over, just like humans encountering a ghost, and immediately picked up their things and continued to run.

When the voice reached You Huan, he remained unmoved and finished the meal that this hospitable big brother brought to him.

Because "Big Brother" was indeed difficult to deal with, he only brought back two black water lives in the end.

One of them was transformed from the bird-like animal. Due to its small size, it only provided 9 evolution points.

But it complemented his genes so well that he even began to feel a sense of drowsiness coming over him.

It seems that a major change is about to take place throughout the body.

The other one should be transformed from a beetle, but it is not small in size and looks quite thick, providing 18 evolution points.

Level upgrade.

[Level: Lv.4→Lv.5 (3/160)]

He had no time to feel the enhancement brought by the level increase, and the effect of genetic completion was still continuing.

The genes from two types of black water life that he had never encountered before seemed to resonate with his genes.

A feeling of sleepiness came over me.

After he got away from the spaceship area, he immediately found a hidden place and fell into a short hibernation.

Let go of your consciousness and let your biological instinct guide you...

The roar of the white giant's black water life also reached the human base.

It was already night, and an incident of "spreading black water" was occurring in the temporary base.
