Following that…

“Prickle, prickle…”

Amidst the crisp sounds of flesh being pierced, Gray saw his front claws continuously grow longer. If the length of his Level 3 claws before evolution was only a dozen centimeters, it had reached a terrifying 20 centimeters after evolution.

What was even more frightening was that a faint light that only belonged to heavy metals was actually circulating on the sharp claws. One could see how sharp the claws were.

Gray felt that his claws had a metallic texture. They were ice-cold and hard. The color of the claws made one’s heart palpitate.

“Although it is indeed very painful, it doesn’t seem to be a loss.”

Gray raised his right claw and smacked forward all of a sudden.

“Bang.”

An extremely obvious sound of shattering rang out in his ears. An immeasurably deep crack had appeared on the smooth and neat surface of the giant rock that provided his rest.

He carefully examined it and found the crack on the surface of the rock revealing a cut that was like a mirror.

“It’s actually so sharp…”

Gray’s widened eyes slightly trembled, and he couldn’t help but be stunned.

This was the power of a strengthened claw by one level? What if he strengthened it to Level 10?

Then after strengthening his scales, his venom, and his entire body, which required 10 times more evolution points to strengthen, what kind of qualitative leap would it bring him after strengthening?

After a moment of silence, Gray sank into deep thought.

He was probably no longer an ordinary mutated Komodo lizard.

Ordinary mutations were chaotic and weird.

He didn’t know if he was developing towards a good or bad direction.

But now, under the guidance of the system, his mutation trend was benign and yet terrifying.

But from the claws that could easily tear through boulders, how could an ordinary Komodo lizard have such sharp claws?

Moreover…

The more Gray looked at it, the more he realized how terrifying the claws were.

Gently, like a human clenching his fist tightly, Gray found that his claws were as flexible as his fist.

Silently…

The metal-like claws had already sunk into Gray’s body.

There was something unspeakably strange inside.

However, the next moment, a sound piercing the air came from Gray.

It was as if the air was being torn apart, and a white wave of air swept out.

And under the huge wave, a flash of cold light pierced through one’s soul.

The sharp claws actually shot out together with the whistling sound of the wind.

It was incredibly shocking.

At this speed, an ordinary wild beast wouldn’t even have the chance to react before being split into two by his sharp claws.

Gray couldn’t help but secretly rejoice. The law of survival in the animal world had long been engraved in his bones. Certainly the stronger he was, the better.

However, at this moment, when Gray turned his gaze to the attribute panel in the air, he noticed that there was a change in the strengthening panel.

[Strengthened claws (level 4): The claws have undergone successive mutations and evolutions. They have a metallic texture. Not only can they expand and contract freely, they can also silently shoot out like sharp blades (cost 40 evolution points).]

“Is this the strength of Level 4 claws…”

While muttering, Gray looked at the changes in the strengthening panel. Other than the Level 4 claws, the rest were all still at Level 3.

This should mean that the claws had been strengthened or mutated four times.

Moreover, after the claws had evolved to Level 4, the evolution points required were actually as much as 40 points.

“From the looks of it, doesn’t this mean that the evolution points required for each subsequent strengthening will slowly increase?”

After giving it some thought, Gray also had some guesses.

Moreover, at this time, his guesses could be even bolder…

Could it be that when he had strengthened his sharp claws, scales, venom, and body to Level 4, then he would step into the threshold of a Level 4 creature and become a true Level 4 mutated creature?

Of course, this was only Gray’s current direction of deduction. As for the specific situation, it still depended on the results of the practice. After all, experiment was the only criterion to test the truth.

Thinking of this, Gray no longer felt sleepy. Looking at the charred mutated creatures lying on the ground one after another not far away, his eyes revealed endless anticipation.

In Gray’s opinion, these were evolution points that could be bought for free. After all, who wouldn’t like something that was bought for free?

…

It was late at night.

Just as Gray was in the depths of the island, keeping adapting to his newly evolved body and starting to explore the evolution points…

A rhythmic and loud roar came from afar.

“Boom…”

Accompanied by a huge roar, several black and huge helicopters broke through the clouds in the sky and flew rapidly towards the island.

At this time, if Gray was present and carefully observed the helicopters, he would definitely be able to discover that these were not ordinary civilian helicopters, but rather the military helicopters of the United States.

Rattlesnake missiles were hanging, one after another, on the two wings of the helicopter. They were waiting for an opportunity to move…

And sitting in the helicopter… one figure after another, they were covered entirely in white protective clothing, sitting quietly in their seats. They were like vipers waiting for an opportunity to strike.

“Gentlemen, trust you have already received our missions, which is to follow the Doctor’s instructions to retrieve the experimental materials and collect the soil data.”

“Understood, Sir…”

Amidst the unanimous response, the cold metal that was quietly leaning against the white figure’s arms were also shocking the surrouding.

It was a gun, a proper military gun used by the United States.

Judging from these guns, it was obvious that they were all elite soldiers.

Moreover, they were fully armed elite soldiers.

Not far away from these soldiers, in the corner of the armed helicopter, some young girls were curled up in the corner. Their hair was white and curly which did not match with their age.

After all, they had passed by the earth which had been baptized by nuclear weapons.

Even with this thick layer of anti radiation suit, the deadly radiation was worrying.

Without seeing for themselves, it was difficult for them to ensure that the nuclear weapons would be effective to the greatest extent.

And there was plenty of intergenerational data which could be used for research. It was all waiting for the team to collect it.
