Super Gene Hunting Ground

Chapter 249: Chapter 249: The Magical Little Bottle

Yang Xiao thought for a moment, and suddenly a strange and bold idea popped into his mind.

”Could it be that the giant python’s carcass was absorbed by this mysterious little bottle? And then it melted into a liquid? If that’s the case, isn’t this liquid essentially the flesh and blood of the giant python carcass?”

Could it really be so?

Yang Xiao became extremely excited. If it was true, then he wouldn’t have to worry about consuming mutant monster carcasses in the future. All he would need to do is place the monster’s body into the little bottle, let it melt into a liquid, and then drink it.

The liquid from the giant python melted down to just a small cupful, making it very easy to drink.

Thinking this, Yang Xiao could hardly contain his excitement. He picked up the cup and guzzled down the white liquid.

Once the liquid entered his mouth, it seemed like the roaring Yellow River, transforming into a tide of tremendous energy, rushing violently into Yang Xiao’s body.

The wild energy brought an immense electric current, causing Yang Xiao to feel like he was about to collapse any second. From his feet to his head, every layer of skin became extremely numb, as if his body no longer belonged to him, and had lost all sensation, giving him a sensation akin to his soul departing his body.

The intense current lasted for more than ten minutes before slowly dissipating. Yang Xiao lay on the ground, completely drained and covered in cold sweat.

Suddenly, Yang Xiao’s mind jolted -- the Genetic Data System displayed a prompt:

”You can now enhance 1 attribute point.”

”Wow, f*ck!”

Yang Xiao yelled, sitting up straight, his heart beating with excitement.

He had guessed correctly, this black bottle was a super purification device for mutant monster carcasses, capable of converting the body of a monster directly into energy liquid for direct use in genetic evolution.

Oh my god, if that’s really the case, wouldn’t I strike it rich?

As Yang Xiao thought about this, he poured out the remaining liquid from the little bottle. The remaining amount was approximately double what he had before. Having experienced it once already, Yang Xiao didn’t drink it all in one go this time, instead, he split it up into several drinks to make the ensuing electric current somewhat more manageable.

Half an hour later, the Genetic Data System in Yang Xiao’s mind prompted again, allowing for an enhancement of 2 attribute points.

The carcass of the Mutant Monster with Enhanced Gene Advanced Stage had helped Yang Xiao increase his Genetic Attributes by 3 points, filling him with immense joy.

The prompt from the Genetic Data System indicating the increase of 3 Genetic Attributes was based on the highest attribute points. For example, Yang Xiao’s Four Attributes were currently:

Strength 33, Agility 38, Defense 33, Wisdom 30,

and the system’s prompt to enhance 3 Genetic Attributes was referencing the highest, Agility Attribute.

Yang Xiao could enhance his Agility Attribute by 3 points. If he used this energy to enhance Strength, he could attain more than 5 points, and if he used it to enhance Wisdom, it could go over 7 points.

Because the base values of the Four Attributes were different, the higher the base, the more energy needed.

In the end, Yang Xiao chose to enhance his Strength by 5 points, reaching 38 points in Strength.

Yang Xiao rushed out of his office to the plaza downstairs. These past days, he had brought out hundreds of monster carcasses from the desert, piled not far from the snowy ground of the plaza, all frozen into ice pops.

Yang Xiao, holding that black bottle in his hand, turned the bottle upside down toward the carcasses on the ground and pressed a blue Rune.

Instantly, the black bottle flickered with light, and the carcasses of the monsters on the ground began to float up, turning into a stream of light, and entered the little bottle in Yang Xiao’s hand.

Yang Xiao marveled at how the black bottle could possibly hold so many monster corpses at once, and then he thought of that space ring. Since the space ring could also contain numerous items, he figured the black bottle must have been crafted by similar mystical methods.

The weight of the black bottle felt heavier to Yang Xiao. He shook it gently with his hand and heard a liquid sloshing inside. Looking closely, he saw it was indeed some milky white liquid.

Yang Xiao was ecstatic inside his heart, rushing back to his room in the nearby building. He poured some of the liquid into a cup and drank it in several goes.

What surprised Yang Xiao immediately was that the liquid, melted from the corpses of nearly a hundred monsters, was only about as much as the liquid from one giant python. It seemed that the genetic evolution energy contained in the bodies of monsters of different levels varied greatly.

This time, Yang Xiao chose to enhance 5 points of Defense.

Now Yang Xiao’s Genetic Data System was as follows:

Strength 38, Agility 38, Defense 38, Wisdom 30 points.

Yang Xiao placed the black bottle into his space ring and let out a long sigh of relief.

At this rate, his breakthrough to the Enhanced Gene stage was just a matter of time.

Early the next day, Yang Xiao still took Huang Wen and five others, along with two giant eagles into the desert.

Huang Wen and the others were now at the Primordial Gene Intermediate Stage of cultivation. Coupled with the two Enhanced Gene giant eagles, as well as Yang Xiao, their group’s collective combat power was more than sufficient to deal with the monsters on the edge of the desert.

Yang Xiao now used the Golden Eagle Bow to shoot Elemental Arrows at distant monsters, and immediately switched to the Longquan Spear and used the Longquan Spear Technique against those that got close.

The group killed nearly twice as many monsters that morning compared to their usual count, all of which Yang Xiao absorbed with the black bottle.

Of course, to avoid drawing attention, Yang Xiao did not tell Huang Wen and the others about the magical function of the black bottle he had found in the desert spaceship. Others simply thought that Yang Xiao was just putting the monster corpses into his space ring.

In the evening, Yang Xiao again visited the nearest Genetic Store outpost, but when they arrived, they saw that many strangers had suddenly appeared near the Genetic Store.

These strangers were not humans from Earth. Their looks, attire, and the air and conversation about them were similar to the shop owner of the Genetic Store.

In addition, outside the Genetic Store, there were several Iron Tower Warriors, each wearing a huge broadsword, their entire presence exuding an intangible pressure and killing aura.

Yang Xiao felt something was amiss internally.

”What’s going on? Why are there so many Iron Tower Warriors?”

Yang Xiao did not approach them but instead found a young man who was resting nearby to inquire.

”Brother, what’s the situation? Why are there so many Iron Tower Warriors?”

The young man glanced at Yang Xiao and said in a lowered voice:

”I don’t know. Last night these people suddenly showed up here. They seem to be looking for something. When I was exchanging goods inside the Genetic Store today, I overheard a leading person chatting with the shop owner. They were asking him if any unusual events had occurred nearby, or if they had seen any spaceships or the like. Who knows, how could there be spaceships in this desert?”

Yang Xiao was startled inside, those people were here looking for the crashed spaceship. However, the spaceship had already dissolved itself into the sand, and the pit would be filled by the desert sands, especially given the many corpses on the sand. At night, surely monsters and Sand Demons would appear, and the activity of the Sand Demons would definitely stir up the surrounding sands. It would be difficult to find traces of the spaceship at the scene.

Yang Xiao thought for a moment and then realized something was not right. This group of people looking for the spaceship was most likely for that black bottle. Wouldn’t it be dangerous to carry it on himself?

(Today there are only two updates; tomorrow six more will be added to make up for it)
