Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Enhancing Equipment Skill
Yang Xiao spent two hours dining with Gong Yu, finishing off the other half of the saber-toothed tiger’s meat, leaving only a huge skeleton behind.
A saber-toothed tiger that was ten meters tall and dozens of meters long, a mountain pile of its flesh, was completely consumed by the two of them.
After finishing his meal, Yang Xiao felt the Genetic Data System in his mind start to vibrate. Upon concentrating, it unexpectedly indicated that he could increase 2 Genetic Attribute points.
This truly stunned Yang Xiao.
If he were in Nanmu City using ordinary Mutant Monster’s Genetic Potion, raising even 1 Genetic Attribute point would be extremely hard. Now, just by eating a part of the saber-toothed tiger’s meat, he could raise 2 attribute points, which was truly exhilarating.
After finishing his meal, Gong Yu said:
"It’s getting late, I need to rush to the Genetic Store 20 kilometers away to rest, the desert night is particularly filled with monsters, do you want to come with me to rest?"
Yang Xiao thought for a moment, then said:
"We’ll head back to Nanmu City today, and we’ll come to find you there tomorrow."
"Alright, but I usually run around during the day, I only rest at the Genetic Store at night. The desert is very large, with a Genetic Store located about every fifty kilometers as a rest point for everyone, to trade goods and so on. Here at the edge of the desert, there are also the middle and core regions of the desert, where the monsters are even more terrifying. Don’t enter lightly, goodbye."
After saying this, the young man leaped onto a Giant Eagle, which unfurled its wings and flew away with him.
Yang Xiao and others quickly dragged the huge pangolin, rushing towards the Transmission Array, to return to Nanmu City.
The sand worms and other monsters’ corpses killed during the day, those with meat of higher levels, were all brought back by Yang Xiao and directly piled on the snowy ground in the square.
Yang Xiao instructed Xiao Zhe to send one sand worm to Star Moon Lake for Xia Luo and others to taste tomorrow, to see if it could enhance their Evolution Level.
The news from Xia Luo’s place was that they dug up some large fish, for example, giant fish weighing over a thousand jins, such fish were previously absent in Star River but appeared in Star Moon Lake, likely native to Star Moon Lake.
Additionally, there were several hundred jin turtles, eels, loaches, and crabs.
Xia Luo sent Yang Xiao a shrimp frozen in a block of ice, 2 meters long.
That night, the shrimp was sliced into sashimi and eaten by Yang Xiao and others.
That giant pangolin was skinned by Xu Nanqiang, who took out half of the meat to make a hot pot.
While eating the pangolin meat, Yang Xiao felt an intense electric current generated within his body.
"Do you guys feel the electric current too?"
"There is, but"
"But what?"
"It seems like this electric current is generated and disappears at the same time, and cannot be stored in the body, nor can it further help us with our genetic evolution."
"I remember only during the early days of the apocalypse, the food could help activate our Genetic Data System. Once the Genetic Data System was activated, merely eating the meat of mutated creatures seemed to stop enhancing our genetic evolution."
Hearing what Huang Wen and others said, Yang Xiao was also puzzled why he could continue to enhance his Genetic Evolution by eating the meat of mutated creatures, while Huang Wen and others could not.
And why could Gong Yu, whom they met in the desert, do the same?
According to Gong Yu’s explanation, most people in Magic City could enhance their Genetic Evolution by eating the flesh of mutated creatures, why couldn’t the people of Nanmu City?
Yang Xiao presented this question to Gu Bo.
"Kid, I also cannot explain this to you, I can only guess that it probably has something to do with everyone’s Innate Physique, or perhaps, it’s related to everyone’s awakened Innate Beast Soul."
"If that’s so, there’s no reason why most people in Magic City can evolve directly through the flesh and blood of mutated creatures, but only I can here. Isn’t this probability too low?"
Gu Bo twirled his beard and pondered for a moment before speaking:
"This question might only be something you can slowly find the answer to yourself, I am powerless to help. However, instead of blindly pondering this issue, why not focus on improving your own Genetic Plan Level."
Hearing this, Yang Xiao nodded, walked out of the Genetic Store, stopped abruptly at the door, turned around and said:
"Old man, do you know about Magic City?"
Gu Bo nodded, "That used to be a super city in your Xuanming Country."
"Do you know that the overall Genetic Plan Level of Magic City has now reached 25?"
Gu Bo was momentarily stunned before he replied lightly:
"I’m not really sure about that. The Genetic Store map only shows the Evolution Level of around a hundred nearby outposts, but not the farther places."
"Can I go to Magic City through the Transmission Array in the desert?"
"Not possible."
"Why?"
"Anyone entering a resource point in the desert can only return to their own outpost through the Transmission Array; it’s impossible to enter someone else’s outpost. Otherwise, monsters in the desert could easily come to Nanmu City through the Transmission Array, and Nanmu City would have been ruined long ago.
To get to Magic City, there is only one method: either you walk on your own to Magic City or find a city that has established a Transmission Array connection with Magic City. Only then can you get there through the Transmission Array."
Yang Xiao bid farewell and left. Using the evening time, he finished off the remaining two sand worms.
The Genetic Data System in his mind vibrated, and he could now increase 3 Genetic Attribute points.
Yang Xiao chose to increase Strength, Agility, and Defense by 1 point each.
Strength 31, Agility 31, Defense 31, Wisdom 30.
He increasingly felt the importance of hunting monsters in the desert.
Huang Wen had the weapons and Skill Scrolls, acquired from the day’s hunting, assessed by Gu Bo.
The weapons were similar to before, Yang Xiao took a Longsword with +7 Strength.
The pangolin Armor indeed was impressive, it added +8 Defense points, although it had no other magic effects, the 8 defense points were very good.
Yang Xiao took off the Snow Wolf Golden Armor and Snow Wolf Ice Sword and passed them to others, wearing the pangolin Armor himself along with the Sand Worm Strength Sword.
Apart from the Wind-controlling Boots, Yang Xiao replaced the necklace around his neck for one with +4 Agility, and also changed his bracelet to one with +4 Agility.
Now, Yang Xiao’s four Genetic Attributes are:
Strength 31, Agility 39, Defense 39 (Armor 8 points), Wisdom 30.
The Genetic Store now had a Hard Bow available, with +4 Agility, an increase of 1 point compared to the sparrow bow.
Yang Xiao thought it over, knowing that the sparrow bow should be retired, and though still unsatisfied with the Hard Bow, he eventually replaced it with the Hard Bow. Furthermore, Yang Xiao, now at the High-Level Primordial Gene stage, was able to learn the Elemental Arrow.
Learning the Elemental Arrow required purchasing the Elemental Arrow Technique Skill Book first, which wasn’t expensive. Ice Element Arrow Technique, Fire Arrow Skill, Electric Arrow Skill, and Poison Arrow Technique, all four types of Arrow Technique skill books could be purchased for just 100 Crystal Coins each.
