Chapter 34: Hard Scales

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After Luo Fan had devoured a carcass, he continued to move forward.

He discovered that although this was a filthy place, it was also a treasure trove.

Another snake-like creature swam past him, but this time, the snake did not attack him.

He advanced for a while and discovered that although there was a lot of garbage down here, there were also many creatures.

He could sense that a large number of aquatic insects were living inside this pile of garbage.

Luo Fan also grabbed one and tasted it. Perhaps because the insect was too small, he did not absorb any bio-energy.

Then, Luo Fan encountered some carcasses that had not been completely decomposed.

He did not know why there were carcasses here which were not fully rotten.

It had been two months since the fire, and there should not have been any creatures still alive at this time.

Unless these creatures had lived in a safe place and only died recently.

“With so many dead creatures, it seems that there are quite a few creatures still alive in that safe place.”

It was only then that Luo Fan realized that a large number of creatures had survived the fire.

This world was more complicated than he had thought.

The bio-energy in Luo Fan’s body was accumulating, and his body was slowly expanding.

He was no longer evolving the remaining cells of his body. Instead, he used all the absorbed energy to expand his body.

He had yet to reach 10kg, and was no match for those really ferocious beasts.

Even though he had evolved level-3 cells, he would still be crushed by an ordinary tiger.

Therefore, while level-3 cells were useful, body size was even more so.

Mass is slightly more important than the level of cells.

At least, this rule applied when the level of cells was low.

Luo Fan had only discovered this problem now. After all, the creatures he had encountered previously were not too large.

It was only when he encountered the large dead creatures that he realized in a daze that there were many such large creatures still alive in this city.

He really could not fight such creatures.

…

In this dark water, there was garbage everywhere, but the resources were also abundant.

Other than the creatures that were still alive, from time to time, Luo Fan was also able to absorb one or two large carcasses which had not completely decomposed.

Thus, he kept advancing for a distance of nearly 200 meters.

With the help of his senses, nothing happened along the way.

“There’s another carcass ahead.”

After the training along the way, Luo Fan was able to easily identify what the object ahead was.

He only needed a slight difference in the flow of water to understand what was ahead.

At this moment, he had discovered another carcass.

He did not know why there were so many carcasses here, and the bio-energy content in them were all relatively high.

“Dr. Rat has recorded that there were conditions for one to become a supernatural creature. For the rats in the rat hole, it was because of the energy dissipated by the supernatural crystal. But, what is the cause here?”

“Perhaps the dissipated energy from the supernatural crystal has reached here? This is not likely!”

Luo Fan could not figure out why, but there were supernatural creatures here, which meant that there was definitely supernatural energy circulating here.

It would definitely meet those conditions.

And the energy of the crystal could not have leaked here and created so many supernatural creatures.

Needless to say, there was definitely a supernatural existence at the source of the water, affecting these creatures.

Without much thought, he had already arrived beside the carcass.

“From the flow of water, this should be an alligator-like creature.”

Luo Fan’s four sensory whiskers gently explored forward, capturing the information about the place.

Then, several of his intestines reached out and started to tear the “alligator” apart.

At this moment, a piece of information suddenly appeared in his mind.

[Hard scales have been discovered. To fuse or not?]

[Form Distribution detection: Light green]

[Fusion Requirement: Level-2 cells. The contact area has touched the contact surfaces of the scales]

“Eh!”

Luo Fan exclaimed and thought,

“So I can also be fitted with the scales of others? It would be more precise to say it was fusion with the scales of other creatures. Green means level-2 cells. The strength of these scales has reached that of level-2 cells.”

He pondered. There was not much information conveyed by this message, but it was enough to open the door to a new world for him.

“Where is the armor?”

Then, Luo Fan’s intestines began to search the carcass for the “hard scales”.

Soon, he had grabbed a bunch of them.

He looked up and the color of the form distribution of the scales appeared in his soul.

Some of the scales were only white, some were just a little green, and some were already pure green.

“From the look of it, not all the scales on this creature’s body are green. A large portion of them cannot be fused into my body. Perhaps because the white ordinary cells and scales do not have strong healing power, they cannot be fused.”

Luo Fan thought and started to pick out the scales.

He retained all those that could be fused and discarded all those that could not be fused.

Several intestines absorbed the carcass while picking out the scales in it.

After a long time, Luo Fan finally finished devouring the originally rotting creature until only its skeleton was left.

He chose a total of 465 scales, all of which were relatively small.

Except Luo Fan’s four sensory whiskers, the rest of his body could be fitted with the scales.

Then, Luo Fan began to take action.

The number of scales was relatively small, so Luo Fan intended to cover up the eyeball cells.

After all, this eyeball carried his intelligence. If he was not careful and was pierced in the eyeball, he would be dead for sure.

Then, he started sticking them on, piece by piece.

The method was very simple. He inserted the scales directly where he wanted them.

The system would then restore them and let the scales grow there firmly.

The scales grew one after another, sticking to the tissues of Luo Fan’s eyeball and wrapping them firmly.

In less than half an hour, the large eyeball, which was originally exposed, had already been neatly covered by the scales.

It became a sphere covered in scales, and even the front-most part of the eyeball was covered.

In this darkness, Luo Fan did not need his eye.

On the back hemisphere of the spherical body fully covered in scales were eight evenly distributed intestines growing. In the middle of the eight intestines, there were three spiked tails.

At the very front of the eyeball, four sensory whiskers were floating there..
