National Gardener: I can choose the evolution path of spiritual plants.

Chapter 222 Conquer
……

On the 5rd day after the virus was released, the sky was clear and another mice were infected with the virus.

On the 100th day after the virus was released, the sky was cloudy and million mice were purchased from Radiation Island's foreign ministers stationed around the world and transported to Radiation Island via cruise ship.

On the 25th day after the virus was released, the sky was overcast.

After accumulating 100 million infection points, Lin Zhi finally evolved all four abilities of the virus to level 6.

On the 26th day of virus release, there were showers and nothing happened.

On the 27th day after the virus was released, there was a heavy rain, but nothing happened.

On the 28th day after the virus was released, it was drizzling and nothing happened.

On the 29th day of the virus release, it was cloudy and nothing happened.

On the 30th day after the virus was released, the weather was sunny and a new mutation of the virus appeared.

On the 1st day after the virus was released, due to the madness of the Radiation Island Mansion, one million mice were invested in the experiment. The number of infection points accumulated by Lin Zhi exceeded million in just ten days.

Lin Zhi was extremely excited and quickly upgraded the virus's adaptability.

Having experienced the mutations brought about by the growth of the virus's adaptability, Lin Zhi felt that this enhanced adaptability was a magical skill for the virus.

After the upgrade, as expected, the virus evolved.

Virus:Demon Virus
Evolution level: D
Enhancement level: lv7
Virus Effect: Demonization (After being infected with the virus, there is a chance that you will gain demonic abilities and become a demon.)
Virus Capabilities

Extreme: Droplet transmission: The virus host can release the virus into the outside world when talking or sneezing. The virus exposed to the outside world can survive for 60 hours in a non-toxic environment below 2°C and can float in the air to infect new hosts.

Advanced Heterogeneous Transmission: The virus acquires the ability to infect all mammals, reptiles, and birds.

Extreme Camouflage: After infecting the host, the virus can disguise itself as normal bacteria to further intercept nutrients in the human body, and has a 30% chance of being detected by the immune system.

Advanced Steal: The virus can disguise itself as beneficial bacteria and steal three related abilities.

Extreme immune deception: After the virus infects the host, each virus monomer has a one in a billion chance of inducing the immune system to kill normal cells and disguise and replace them.

Advanced Replication: A successfully disguised virus will have a one in ten billion chance of replicating a new offspring.

Final adaptation: After the virus infects the host, it will be affected and will undergo adaptive changes, with a one in a billion chance of an adaptive mutation.

Primary Nirvana: When the host's emotions are out of control, the body is severely overdrawn, or severely injured, and lethal drugs are no longer suitable as a breeding ground for the virus, the virus individuals will invade the nervous system. When the invasion degree reaches more than 50%, the host will be controlled to have disgust, hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, etc. towards the surrounding environment, and take actions that are conducive to the virus leaving the original host and parasitizing a new host, thereby achieving Nirvana rebirth.

Mutation: Gluttony: The Devil Virus acquires the ability to secrete "enhanced digestive enzymes", causing the infected to continuously desire food and quickly digest and absorb nutrients.

Mutation·Photosynthesis: The demon virus acquires bacterial abilities and optimizes mutations, enabling it to photosynthesize and generate nutrients.

Infection Enhancement: lv6 (0/1 million)

Resistance Enhancement: lv6 (0/1 million)

Communication Enhancement: lv6 (0/1 million)

Adaptive Enhancement: lv7 (0/1 million)
Seeing the newly evolved virus, Lin Zhi suddenly felt a headache.

He seemed to have upgraded the wrong skill.

The adaptability has been enhanced to level 7, and the first two abilities have merged into one ultimate adaptability, which is very powerful.

But the newly emerged Nirvana seems powerful enough to control the host's behavior.

However, it accelerates the death of the host. The infected people who are emotionally out of control are controlled by the virus and their crazy behavior is likely to be treated as "zombies" and "humanely destroyed" by the cabinet.

Especially those millions of little white mice. If they were so crazy that they could not be controlled, there would be no psychological pressure at all when they were killed.

This is not a good thing in the long run.

Lin Zhi needs the demon virus to be milder, with strong virus transmission ability and strong resistance so that it is not easily eliminated. Only with sustainable development can he accumulate enough infection points needed for strengthening and upgrading.

You know, the main task of the system is to evolve the virus to level B.

It is currently at level D, one C away from level B. Converted into enhancement level, it needs to be upgraded from level 7 to level 13.

To upgrade from level 7 to level 8, 1 million infection points are required.

Logically speaking, upgrading from level 12 to level 13 requires trillion infection points.

What is the population of Radiation Island?

Just over 2 million.

The Radiation Island is highly urbanized and has a small wild area. Even if various vertebrates and invertebrates are included, it is still a question whether the number can exceed 10 billion.

Even if the entire radiation island is infected, it will take at least 3 years of accumulation to upgrade to level B.

Therefore, the virus cannot be too strong. If it kills the host, the result will be counterproductive.

Lin Zhi felt a little regretful. He felt that he should have strengthened the virus's ability to spread or resist the virus first.

If the transmission capability can be increased by insect transmission routes or even bacterial transmission routes, the problem of infection points will be solved.

As for resistance, judging from the current virus capabilities, these resistances are all beneficial to the human body.

For example, the replication of the capabilities of beneficial bacteria and the replacement of human cell tissues.

On the 32nd day after the virus was released, Lin Zhi heard from the news that what he had worried about had happened.

After a month of isolation and depression, people whose emotions were already extremely unstable became crazy. Under the influence of the virus, they rushed out of their homes and smashed things in the streets.

Rats and other animals being hunted by the killing squad also launched suicide counterattacks.

When a Self-Defense Force member accidentally killed a crazy infected person outside, the situation escalated again.

On this day, the Cabinet issued a notice: At the end of the rabies virus, the human brain tissue is destroyed and the brain is dead, forming a monster similar to a "zombie". The brain-dead "zombies" currently in centralized isolation will be humanely destroyed.

Due to the threat of the "zombie" virus, the uninfected people suddenly became much more "obedient".

After this announcement was issued, there were no gatherings, demonstrations or other activities. Instead, many people supported the Cabinet's approach online.

So, on that day, more than 100,000 seriously infected people who were in centralized isolation on Radiation Island were humanely destroyed along with the isolation building by the Cabinet's gasoline, incendiary bombs, power grid and firepower bombing, and turned into ruins.

Lin Zhi lost the source of more than 100,000 infections every day.

As for the one million mice, they have not gone crazy yet because they were infected for a short time.

So, nothing to worry about for now.

The silver lining of this misfortune is that the destruction of more than 100 islanders contributed more than million infection points to Lin Zhi.

Lin Zhi was glad that he was not an islander born on a radioactive island where people were treated like grass.

……

It is night, outside Tokyo, in the ruins of the quarantine building.

There was a noise coming from the collapsed reinforced concrete. In the moonlight, a thin figure was seen lifting up the rubble and slowly crawling out of the ruins.

Under the moonlight, the figure's body glowed with fluorescence, and seemed to be slowly moving.

His face was unrecognizable and his skin was as charred as charcoal. After crawling out of the ruins, he frantically stuffed the plants and bushes in the surrounding wild land into his mouth.

Soon, large tracts of plants and shrubs were digested, and his body swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The figure slowly stood up and walked towards the nearby mountains.

At the same time, Lin Zhi received a system prompt.

[The demon virus mutates. Should we consume 121 million infection points to update the virus structure? ]

[The demon virus mutates. Should we consume 121 million infection points to update the virus structure? ]

[The demon virus mutates. Should we consume 121 million infection points to update the virus structure? ]

After seeing three consecutive messages, Lin Zhi quickly clicked on the virus to check it out, and found that the virus had three mutation abilities:
Mutation: Fire resistance: The demon virus has acquired the ability to withstand combustion and high temperatures, and can survive in temperatures of 1 degrees.

Mutated Energy Storage Cells: When the host is placed in flames and its body is set on fire or electrocuted, the Devil Virus will strengthen the host's cells, allowing them to withstand temperatures of 1 degrees Celsius or 1000 volts, and absorb flames, light energy, and electrical energy for storage, sustainably strengthening the host's high-temperature resistant cells or electricity-resistant cells.

Mutation: Flame Demon/Thunder Demon: The demon virus further transforms the assimilated cell structure, allowing the host to channel the energy stored in the cells into the body surface. After contact with the air, the intense friction produces flames or electricity. "What happened? How could the demon virus undergo such a huge mutation?"

Lin Zhi thought of the news reports about the humane destruction of seriously infected people by the Radiation Island Mansion.

Could it be that there are survivors among those seriously infected?
After thinking about it, Lin Zhi did not update all three mutant abilities because he did not want "supernatural life" to appear on Radiation Island so soon.

"Energy storage cells and fire demons cannot be updated, but fire resistance can." Lin Zhi spent more than 121 million infection points to update the viruses in the bodies of all infected people.

……

101Lab.

"Instructor, it says that you should produce results as soon as possible, otherwise all the lab mice will be destroyed."

"Tell them to stop rushing. This is scientific research! Viruses are a double-edged sword. So what if we pay a little price? Didn't we successfully give the mad cow the ability to photosynthesize?"

"They won't listen. The Cabinet has issued an ultimatum. If no effective results are produced within 10 days, all lab mice will be destroyed and the infected will be eliminated."

"These damn bastards!"

……

Hokkaido, an unnamed volcano.

In the belly of the mountain, magma was rolling, smoke with a sulfur smell was lingering, and a figure was walking on the hot rocks.

He held a bunch of squeaking mice in his hand and threw them into the lava.

Nourishes...

The high temperature of the magma melted the mouse instantly, leaving no trace.

"not enough……"

He muttered to himself, reaching his hand deep into the magma, scooping up a handful of flowing hot molten liquid, and then pouring it over his head.

hiss!
The parts of the figure's body where the lava flowed instantly bulged with blood blisters. Enduring the pain, he continued to scoop up the lava to "bathe".

The surrounding fiery energy was absorbed by his body surface, and the skin that was burned and bloody quickly grew out again.

There was no sun or moon in the mountains, and the figure repeated the lava bath for an unknown period of time, until finally the lava could no longer cause any harm to him.

He came to the lava shore with an Akita dog.

He scooped up the lava with his hands and smeared it on the dog's back.

The Akita Dog immediately showed a relieved expression.

The figure smiled and pushed it into the magma.

The Akita dog was frightened and struggled desperately in the lava.

But after struggling for a while, it seemed to sense something and began to swim happily in the magma.

"It's done!"

The figure laughed and leapt into the lava.

Lying on the surface of the lava lake, the figure looked fierce and muttered to himself, "Damn Kazufu, wait for me, Kazuki Kawato, to lead the Burning Legion for revenge!"

After an unknown amount of time, Kazuki Kawato climbed onto the shore.

He led his Akita dog away from the volcano and headed toward the countryside.

Currently, the virus is mainly spreading in Tokyo, and the prevention and control in the surrounding areas is not too serious.

Taking advantage of the night, Kazuki Kawado quickly sneaked into the village.

He came to a house and flames suddenly rose from his body. He covered the house with his hands, and the wooden door was instantly ignited, burning a big hole.

Kazuki Kawado sneaked into the room and came to the bedroom.

He spat at the person in the bedroom, then turned and left.

Overnight, he visited the entire village.

He would spit on those who were deep sleepers, and would send those who were light sleepers who were awakened to heaven.

The night fades and the day comes.

The villagers were awakened and shocked to find a big hole in their house burned.

Before he could come to his senses, he was called together by the old village chief.

Kazuki Kawado was at the village chief's house.

"So you have been infected with the leukemia virus. Do you want to wait here for the humane destruction of the cabinet, or become stronger to protect yourself? Make your choice!"

"You deserve to die!"

Someone impulsively punched Kawado Kazuki.

A cruel smile appeared on Kawado Kazuki's face, and flames were rising from thousands of pores on his naked body.

The high temperature caused the air around to distort somewhat.

"devil!!!"

The villagers stepped back in fear.

"die!"

Kawado Ikki moved like the wind to the man who was throwing the punch and grabbed him by the neck.

The flames spread from his hands toward the man, igniting him in an instant, with flames all over his body.

Soon, the man was burned to ashes.

Because the virus in his body has not yet reached a certain concentration and assimilated the cells, it is burned by the flames.

"Are you envious of this god-like power? The virus you're infected with is of the same origin as mine. As long as you practice with flames below 1 degrees, you can gain a fire element constitution. Then gradually increase the temperature, and eventually your body will no longer be afraid of magma!"

Kazuki Kawato explained.

His purpose of spreading the virus was not to vent his emotions, but to give birth to more "fire elemental extraordinary beings".

The fire-type extraordinary people will definitely have expanding ambitions and become restless, which will cause trouble to the cabinet.

As long as the virus continues to spread, thousands of extraordinary people will appear.

In the end, we will definitely be able to overthrow the cabinet and complete our revenge!
"The day my Burning Legion is formed will be the end of the Pavilion!"

Thinking of his pride, Kawato Kazuki grinned.

"Hahaha, I am the Flame King!"

The 40th day after the virus was released.

Lin Zhi was lying dead in the villa as usual.

Suddenly, a message on his mobile phone startled him.

"Major breakthrough, bullosis may become a sharp sword for humans to overcome terminal illnesses!"

Lin Zhi quickly clicked on the article.

The article states that after more than a month of research, medical scientist Juro Inaka has given the rabies virus the ability to "devour aging and diseased cells" and reshape "new cells."

In clinical trials, tadalafil can effectively treat most diseases, such as heart disease, hepatitis B, AIDS, kidney failure, pneumonia, various cancers, etc.

And it can make the elderly look decades younger.

After reading the article, Lin Zhi couldn't help but curl his lips.
