Chapter 58 Advance Preparation

After leaving the activity room, Chen Chu went to the practice classroom to practice swordsmanship and dragon elephant skills until the school bell rang after four o'clock.

Today he did not go to the reading room to read, but left school early.

After leaving the school gate, Chen Chu took a taxi to the flower, bird, fish and insect market.

It was still the bird and insect pet shop. After Chen Chu walked in, he said familiarly: "Boss Li, where are the insects I ordered?"

Seeing that it was an acquaintance, the boss smiled: "Here, I put them in a box, and I packed a few more for you in case they die on the road."

As he said, Boss Li took Chen Chu to a shelf inside, where there was a small box with a length and width of 20 cm, which was covered with some rotten leaves.

On these leaves, four insects with a total body length of about 3 cm, long and narrow bodies, and a metallic luster on the surface were crawling around.

The most special thing about these insects is that their compound eyes are prominent and their six legs are very long.

"This kind of insect is quite common, but it is troublesome to catch. Recently, wild creatures have become more and more aggressive, and many of them have slight mutations."

"Since we are all acquaintances, I will charge you 400 yuan this time."

"Okay, thank you, Boss Li."

Chen Chu did not bargain, and directly transferred 400 yuan to him, carrying the box and a box of food "mealworms" given by Boss Li, and walked out of the pet store.

This is what Chen Chu prepared for the next evolution of the heavy armored beast.

This is an insect called tiger beetle, which is carnivorous. →

It is most famous for its speed, which is known as the first in the insect world and can move a distance of 300 times its body length in an instant.

After determining that the next evolution of the clone is to enhance speed, Chen Chu checked a lot of relevant information and finally decided on tiger beetles.

When the time comes, after absorbing the tiger beetle gene, not to mention gaining an instant movement speed of 300 times the body length, even if it is only 10 times, it will be a super enhancement for the heavy armored beast.

In fact, for the third evolution of the clone, Chen Chu did consider mutant beasts.

But ordinary mutant beasts are only strong and have strong defense. They are not as powerful as the current heavy armored beasts of the same size.

And those powerful mutant beasts with special abilities are not worth thinking about. He can't afford to buy or kill them now.

In addition, Chen Chu also considered some special creatures, such as water bears.

This kind of thing, which is called an insect but more like a microorganism, is known as an undead creature with extremely terrible vitality. It can survive in extreme high and low temperatures and adapt to various environments.

Even if it enters outer space, it can survive through special abilities.

But after carefully checking the information of this creature, Chen Chu gave up.

Because the so-called tenacious vitality of this creature and the reason why it can survive for hundreds of years are actually a dehydrated dormant state used to avoid the environment.

This state is similar to suspended animation, and nothing can be done. If you encounter an enemy at this time, you can only wait for death.

And its real active life cycle is actually only a few weeks. The claim of immortality is exaggerated. →

"Brother, you came back so early today."

After five o'clock, Chen Hu, who came back from school, was surprised to see Chen Chu already at home.

"Well, I have something to do today, so I left early."

Chen Chu called Chen Hu over and pointed to the box on the table: "Xiao Hu, remember to feed this thing for me after I go to the trial in a few days."

Chen Hu looked at the tiger beetle on the table curiously and asked curiously: "Brother, what kind of insect is this?"

Chen Chu casually found an excuse: "Tiger beetle, my new pet, I just need to throw a few mealworms in it every day."

"No problem, brother."

According to the current growth rate of the heavy armored beast, it is expected to reach the third evolution around the end of the month, and he may still be in Koroya at that time.

So Chen Chu plans to hand over the feeding of the tiger beetle to Chen Hu.

When the clone is about to evolve, he will call Chen Hu to go out at night and throw the box containing the tiger beetle into the river.

As for the reason, just find any one.

After arranging things, Chen Hu took the initiative to cook. This kid has been getting more and more diligent recently. Seeing this, Chen Chu also took the tiger beetle upstairs to prepare for practice.

The actual situation is that he leaned back on the chair and his consciousness sank.

Suddenly, under the mud and sand of the surging river, a black head like a lizard rose up, and it looked very ferocious under the background of three pairs of red feather horns.

The mud and sand rolled, and the heavy armored beast like a crocodile swam out from the bottom of the river.

During this period, almost regardless of day or night, as long as he felt that the heavy armored beast had digested almost everything, Chen Chu would distract himself to control it to continue eating.

However, this is an estuary, the water is deep and the river is wide, and there are some ferocious fish that can adapt to fresh water, such as the mutant white shark covered with scales and the killer whale with horns on its head.

Facing those mutant fish with a body size of more than eight meters, the heavy armored beast would turn around and leave, or sink into the mud at the bottom of the river.

In the face of the unknown strength of these huge mutant fish, there is no need to fight them. If they get injured, it will not be worth the loss and will slow down the evolution and growth rate.

More than 30 meters below the river surface, the river water is turbid, and the heavy armored beast can only vaguely see a range of more than ten meters.

Just as the heavy armored beast wandered for a while, a three-meter-long black shadow came into its sight in the distance, and the heavy armored beast's eyes lit up immediately.

Compared with humans, it is easier to judge the strength of mutant beasts in the water. Basically, the larger the size, the stronger the strength. It will only make mistakes in rare cases.

For example, the heavy armored beast encountered a two-meter-long mutant fish before. Its body was like a sharp sword and its speed was terrifying.

At that time, it only flew past in an instant, tearing a three-meter-long mutant fish into two halves, and then encountered the heavy armored beast and was eaten by it.

But the heavy armored beast also paid a price, and was cut by the sword-shaped mutant fish with a half-meter long and several millimeters deep wound on its abdomen.

This was the first time that the heavy armored beast had been injured since its evolution. Although only the exoskeleton armor on its abdomen was cut a little, it also scared it.

After all, the exoskeleton armor on its abdomen was only two centimeters thick. If the mutant fish was more than ten times stronger, it would be enough to threaten it.

Since that day, Chen Chu has been much more cautious.

At this time, the mutant fish also discovered the heavy armored beast. Because of the size difference between the two sides, it not only did not run away but took the initiative to approach it.

This is a small mutant shark, covered with gray scales and full of sharp teeth in its mouth.

After discovering the ferocious appearance of the heavy armored beast and its thick and sharp limbs, the mutant fish did not immediately attack, but swam around it cautiously.

Seeing this, the heavy armored beast acted clumsy, slowly turned in place, and retracted its limbs on both sides of its body to show fear and defense.

Soon, the mutant shark circled the heavy armored beast several times, and without feeling any danger, it swung its tail and suddenly attacked from behind the heavy armored beast.

In just a blink of an eye, it rushed behind the heavy armored beast, opened its sharp mouth and bit down fiercely on the back of the heavy armored beast's head.

At this moment, the seemingly clumsy heavy armored beast suddenly sank, turned around and appeared under the mutant shark, and grabbed its body with four claws.

Tear! !

The sharp claws of the heavy armored beast tore the scales of the mutant shark, and bit it hard when it struggled frantically. The terrifying bite force directly tore a huge blood hole in its abdomen.

Blood spurted out immediately, dyeing the surrounding river water red.

Facing the heavy armored beast with four limbs, these mutant fish had no chance to break free once they were caught, and they were torn to death by the heavy armored beast in just a few bites.

In the blood-stained river, the black beast began to eat, tearing off large pieces of fish meat with each bite, looking more and more ferocious.

There will be more later
