Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 74: Chapter 73: Traveling Caravan

The mutation compatibility of this type of Elemental Spirit species is clearly much higher than that of the Wood Shadow Dragon.

It often results in mutations of bizarre things.

With anticipation, Lin You immediately performs a mutation on one of the Earth Elemental Spirits.

[Mutating a Tier Six species requires consuming 250 points of Magic Energy, do you wish to continue?]

“Continue!”

As Lin You’s voice fell.

The Earth Elemental Spirit, which is even larger than the Plant Elemental Spirit, suddenly emitted a burst of light and began to rapidly transform.

In the blink of an eye, it changed from a ball of light to the advanced form of an Overlord Flower, the Overlord Cannibal Flower.

Not bad, it can be used to guard the territory.

Then Lin You continued to perform mutations on another Earth Elemental Spirit.

Swish!

The light flashed, and a cactus with limbs, taller than a person, appeared before him, causing him to pause.

[Name: Cactus Warrior]

[Race: Plant]

[Level: Tier Six (0/500)]

[Power: 324]

[Constitution: 412]

[Agility: 375]

[Spirit: 324]

[Skills: Plant Protection, Rotating Flying Thorns (body spins rapidly, shooting numerous sharp thorns in all directions with strong penetration power.), Thorn Ball (fires a thorn ball at enemies, which explodes upon impact, transforming into spikes to attack the surroundings from all directions.)]

[Introduction: A plant that grows in hot regions, possessing strong survival abilities, with spikes that have strong penetration power.]

“New species!”

After reviewing the attributes of the Cactus Warrior, Lin You’s eyes lit up.

Could the system finally remember his initial complaints upon arriving in this world and gave him this species?

No kidding.

The skill forms of this Cactus Warrior are excellent, all possessing penetration abilities with a wide range.

This is definitely a deadly blow for those with weak defenses, whether humans or species.

Added to that, these spikes are inherently small, making it extremely difficult to defend against. Once a fatal spot is struck, won’t death be inevitable?

Initially, Lin You wanted to directly test the power of its skills, but considering that the territory is filled with plants, which might cause injury, he decided to simply test the penetration power of the spikes.

“Come, attack this rock with your spikes and see.”

Lin You picked up a hard stone from the side and placed it several meters away, signaling the Cactus Warrior to attack it.

The Cactus Warrior didn’t hold back, directly shooting a spike from its body, with a “whoosh,” it turned into a fleeting shadow heading towards the stone.

Fizz!

The spike pierced through the stone without any obstruction, even continuing its trajectory, penetrating through the back of the stone, and embedding into the soil.

The stone cracked following the sound.

“This fierce?”

Lin You stared at the shattered stone in surprise, then looked at the Cactus Warrior, feeling extremely pleased inside.

This newly emerged species is far more formidable than he’d imagined.

He could even imagine the thrilling scene where the Cactus Warrior charges into the enemy’s ranks, shooting countless spikes, just thinking about it is exhilarating.

Unfortunately, the appearance probability of this species doesn’t seem high.

In the subsequent eight mutations, there wasn’t another one, only transforming into a few species he already had.

Among them were two Blood Demonesses, two Tree Spirit Generals, two Wood Spirits, while the remaining were low-attack variant pumpkins and wheat.

“Alright then, this is pretty good.”

Lin You isn’t greedy, as long as over half are combat species, that’s enough.

After this round of recruitment, the number of his Tier Six combat species reached 27, finally allowing him to barely have a foothold.

Lin You glanced at the remaining 2000 Magic Energy, then closed the recruitment interface and arrived at the Tower of Species to start researching the Tier Six Blood Demoness.

[Researching Tier Six species requires consuming 1250 points of Magic Energy, do you wish to continue?]

“Continue.”

The research costs for ordinary species are only half that of rare species, so it’s acceptable.

After arranging the research task, the sky was slowly darkening.

So he didn’t bother to go out.

He directly ordered the Wood Shadow Dragon to take the bodies of several recently hunted demons to Xue Changgui’s residence, to treat the residents to a feast tonight.

This time, the residents didn’t act like before.

Instead, they held a proper celebration for the completion of the Yellow Sand City water canal.

Some residents even brought freshly made marinated meat to Lin You, to improve his meals.

The entire Yellow Sand City was brightly lit, lively until the latter half of the night before slowly quieting down.

…

In the following two days.

Lin You continued as usual, constantly traveling between the territory and the Gobi Desert.

Earning Magic Energy to recruit species, while searching for demon gathering spots to collect Territory Essence.

Occasionally, he would check the reconstruction progress of Yellow Sand City and the status of the mines.

And after two days of excavation and refurbishment, the moat surrounding Yellow Sand City was finally half dug, basically solving the city-wide water supply issue.

Even the damaged city walls have begun to be repaired.

However, due to a manpower shortage, completion may not be feasible in the short term.

This matter can’t be hurried.

It’s already midday at this time.

Lin You, who was managing the planting gardens within the territory, was suddenly interrupted by a shout from outside.

“Lord! Great trouble! A traveling merchant caravan has come saying they want to see you!”

“Traveling merchant caravan?”

Lin You’s spirit was stirred, he immediately put down his pruning tools and rushed outside the territory.

Upon seeing Lin You, the resident quickly said, “It’s a traveling merchant caravan from the Flame River Kingdom, and it seems it’s led by a lord, now just outside the city!”

“Alright, I’m heading over right away.”

Knowing it’s led by another lord, Lin You’s heart tightened.

He immediately returned to the territory, mounted the Wood Lion, and hurried with the plants towards Yellow Sand City.

Meanwhile.

At the other end of Yellow Sand City’s gate.

A small caravan of more than a dozen people, carrying goods, slowly entered the city.

“Lord, this is the closest Yellow Sand City within the borders of the Great Wilderness Kingdom.”

Beside the carriage, a corpulent middle-aged man whispered to the person inside the carriage.

“Is this Yellow Sand City?”

The carriage curtain lifted, revealing a young man similar in age to Lin You, who curiously surveyed the surroundings.

“It really is as desolate as the rumors say, who’d have thought there’d be a lord here.”

“Indeed.” The man respectfully replied, “It seems like someone similar to you who just arrived not long ago, so we should be a bit cautious.”

“Hmph, they’re also newly arrived lords, what’s there to fear? I brought forty Tier Six species this time.”

The young man snorted dismissively.

Around his carriage, forty Centaur Species, carrying various weapons, boldly drove into the city, startling the residents of Yellow Sand City, keeping them at a distance.

Finally, the caravan passed through the dilapidated city gates, arriving at the main street.

At a glance, they saw the towering tree at the end of the street, rising tens of meters high.

“Is this… a plant-type territory?”

Upon seeing the tree, the young man froze, immediately recognizing the type of Lin You’s territory.

When he noticed the shadows flying back and forth around the tree, his pupils suddenly contracted.

“Flying species!”
