Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1399: Son of the soil



When they saw the weapon’s golden light, many people in the monitoring room were envious.

Gold equipment was still rare even if a few years passed since the apocalypse started, and they were all the bosses of various factions.

Moreover, these were two identical gold equipment that might be a set equipment.

Gold… Set.

This increased the rarity of this equipment to another level.

“I underestimated Jiu Long and thought he only knew one weird assassination technique. It seems like he has many good things.”

Wen Yan touched his chin, a habit he had during peacetime. Now, it was the apocalypse, and his weight was back to when he was young. He shaved his chin clean, which represented maturity when he was younger and old age when he grew older.

“Don’t forget about his battle beast; it is a level eight mutated earthworm.”

Alamos reminded Wen Yan that the battle beast was a part of an evolved’s strength.

But Wen Yan shook his head.

“That big fellow looks terrifying, but it isn’t a combat pet; it is a support pet.”

Support pet?

The others took a look. However, they didn’t agree with Wen Yan. Be it the earthworm’s giant body, the sharp teeth in its mouth, or the poisonous liquid, it meant that this beast had strong attack.

Wen Yan was delighted. He crossed his arms before him like he was a deputy leader observing a situation.

“Jiu Bao is a castrated lifeform.”

He looked around, “Since all of you are biologists and scientists, you should know what will happen if there is a level difference between the main person and the battle beast.”

Everyone knew. Even ordinary evolved knew that.

Retaliation was something evolved that raised battle beasts were afraid of.

No matter how docile the beast was before, as long as there wasn’t a strong contract restraining them, there was a chance. The methods included escaping, attacking, killing, or it becoming the master.

It was rare for lifeforms like Yellow Ball to naturally have a master-servant relationship. Even Ye Zhongming, who had good luck since reviving, only had one such battle beast.

Other evolved without strong scrolls would have to face such an issue.

“Castration refers to ability and not gender.”

Wen Yan was solemn, “This earthworm’s main body has a strong ability called– Son of the soil. As long as it is underground and surrounded by soil, it can absorb energy. It doesn’t need to fight and can obtain evolution energy.”

Everyone was shocked and terrified of that ability.

This was natural evolution without spending any effort. They just didn’t know how fast that energy absorption speed was. If it was quick enough, this was an overbearing ability.

“This is naturally slower than swallowing other lifeforms.” Wen Yan explained, but he changed his tone immediately.

“But if it absorbs soil that has evolved flesh and blood, its speed will quicken.”

Others stopped talking and looked back at the lifeform that was screeching at Xia Bai.

Each person got greedy.

This evolution condition seemed restrictive but was actually very easy to achieve.

The wilderness was the battlefield of mutated lifeforms. In places that humans didn’t know, large conflicts occurred every day.

Thousands and even tens of thousands of lifeforms might die each time.

This earthworm just had to remain underground, and its evolution speed would be quick.

If they owned this earthworm, then…

Each person imagined.

“Due to this ability, its evolution speed is quick and exceeds its Master. To deal with this situation, Jiu Long did something to its body… Even if it is higher level than Jiu Long, it wouldn’t be able to threaten him.”

“I am not sure what he did exactly, but I know that after doing it, Jiu Bao became a support beast. Apart from its strong defense, it has no more attack abilities.”

Everyone shook their heads. Him doing this was a huge waste. His weakness resulted in him dragging his battle beast down.

“Let’s continue watching…” Wen Yan wanted to say something, but he stopped. He noticed that Xia Bai had started fighting back.

Earth Burning Sky Flame was very strong, and it turned the entire space into a sea of flames. But when it got close to Xia Bai, the flames wrapped around and left her untouched.

When Jiu Long raised his head, Xia Bai had disappeared.

A look of absolute seriousness appeared on Jiu Long’s face that had never appeared before.

He sensed danger.

Fatal danger.

Jiu Bao gave a tragic cry, and Jiu Long rolled to the ground. A cold light flew past his head.

Xia Bai opened her wings and held the black scythe, slashing across the area.

No blood was left on his head, and he managed to dodge successfully.

But he wasn’t happy. He sensed Xia Bai’s location but she was instantly beside him and launching that fatal strike.

If not for Jiu Bao and him being connected in mind, he would have been badly injured.

Jiu Long was confident in his own defense. He felt that Xia Bai’s black scythe could, at most, slice his scales open.

He stretched backward and rested on the earthworm’s body. Jiu Bao opened its mouth and swallowed Jiu Long.

This caused Xia Bai, who was about to attack, to stop. She looked at the earthworm and didn’t know why it did that.

The people watching the battle were also confused.

Jiu Bao’s body stretched and constricted, and one could clearly see Jiu Long’s tracks. After which, everyone watched as Jiu Long was spat out from the other side.

Xia Bai backed off.

Jiu Long raised his head and laughed arrogantly.
