Chapter 97 - 96: Third Evolution, Sword Armor King Beast (First Update)
Mist River, 7:30 in the evening.
Glenn Clark came down from the upstairs holding a box containing a tiger beetle and called out to Doris Raven, who was watching TV in the living room, “Mom, I’m going out for a walk.”
Due to the good public security, Doris was not worried about his safety and just reminded him, “Don’t go too far, okay?”
“I know.”
“Wait, you’re going for a walk, why are you taking your brother’s pet insect?” Doris looked curiously at the box he was holding.
“Oh, my brother called me in the afternoon and asked me to set it free.” Glenn blinked.
He had no choice. The request from his brother to tie a rope and throw it into the water was too far-fetched. If he told Doris, he might be seen as deliberately causing trouble, so it was better to say he was setting it free.
“Your brother called you.”
Doris paused and then asked with concern, “Did he say anything about how he’s doing over there? Is he injured? How’s the food?”
“I heard Koroya is very backward, with unstable signals and frequent power outages in some places…”
“Cough! Mom, my brother is fine, he’s doing very well.” Glenn hurriedly interrupted.
And without waiting for Doris to speak, he ran out, “Mom, I’m leaving now.”
It was almost December, and the weather was getting colder. Fewer people were out at night, and there were only a few elderly people with their children for a walk along the riverside.
Following Jack Clark’s instructions, Glenn came to the bridge by the river, took out a rope, tied up the box containing the tiger beetle, and attached a small stone to one end of the rope.
After testing the weight, Glenn suddenly threw the stone and the box together out into the water.
Splash! The water splashed, the stone quickly sank to the bottom, and the box with a few small holes in it floated on the water’s surface, held in place by the stone.
“Is this okay?” Looking at the floating box in the water, Glenn was a bit uncertain, and after thinking for a moment, he took out his mobile phone.
Due to the time difference, Koroya was in the middle of the night.
Jack Clark, who hadn’t slept all night, answered the phone as soon as it rang.
“Brother, I’ve thrown the tiger beetle into the river.”
“Hmm, 1 know. You can go back now.”
As Jack spoke, a three-meter-long black mutated beast was lying quietly under the water near the bridge, slightly raising its head to look at Glenn by the river.
“Oh, then I’ll go back.”
Since Jack said there was no problem, Glenn hung up the phone and left.
About ten minutes after Glenn left, it was already 8:30 in the evening. The dim water under the bridge churned, and a huge black head emerged from the water’s surface.
The half-meter-long sharp spikes on both sides of its head, and the three pairs of blood-red feather horns angrily erect, gave the heavy-armored beast an aura of unspeakable majesty.
Thump! The Heavy Armored Beast swallowed the tiger beetle along with the box in one bite, and then disappeared under the water surface.
Half an hour later, the black mutated beast came to the junction of the tributary and the main river and returned to the cave entrance it had dug on the riverbank.
Of course, its current nest was no longer able to accommodate its larger size. The Heavy Armored Beast stretched out its double claws, and the water in the area instantly became turbulent and muddy.
Soon, a cave appeared with an entrance below the water, the passage five meters deep, and a width and length of six meters on the inside.
Not until then did the Heavy Armored Beast crawl into the center, crushing the wooden box it had been holding in its mouth for so long.
At the same time, Jack Clark, who had arrived on the hotel rooftop, heard a voice in his mind that said “Evolution”.
Boom!
Jack’s voice was like pressing a button, and a fierce torrent of heat erupted like a wave inside the Heavy Armored Beast, thousands of miles away.
The accumulated evolution energy this time was much more than the previous two times. The muscles, bones, and even the external bone armor of the Heavy Armored Beast decomposed at a visible speed as the energy passed through them.
That’s right, they decomposed at the cellular level, recombined, split, and compressed the density to become even more terrifying.
The originally stable genes also began to recombine and optimize, evolving in a direction more suitable for themselves after absorbing a part of the speed factor represented by the tiger beetle.
Meanwhile, an intense heat energy appeared out of nowhere inside Jack, exploding like a bomb, and engulfing his entire body with rolling heatwaves.
As the heatwaves passed, the already powerful physical constitution soared at a terrifying speed, doubling, quadrupling, quintupling…
As his physique grew stronger and his cell density increased, Jack’s body exuded an increasingly heavy aura.
This evolution took even longer than the last one, taking almost two hours to complete.
By then, the sky was already bright, and the rising sun shone golden light on Jack’s face, which glowed like a jade carving.
Jack slowly opened his eyes, his black-and-white pupils were tinged with a touch of gold, his gaze was indifferent, and there was a faint sense of dignity and sanctity.
But this anomaly was only a fleeting moment.
Jack moved his body a little and could clearly feel that as his physique strengthened and cell density increased, his body became much heavier.
His skin had become tougher, his muscle fibers had greater explosive power, and his bones were harder than alloy, capable of bearing greater strength.
“The improvement this time is a bit exaggerated.” In amazement, Jack called up the attribute page with a mental command.
