Alien Dust

Chapter 466 The Source of Mutation

When the three were about to head to the eleventh floor, an alarm suddenly sounded in one of the exhibition tanks.

Then I saw the amniotic fluid-like liquid quickly overflowing from the bottom of the exhibition tank. The sticky and transparent liquid instantly covered the floor, and then a dog-man in the exhibition tank opened his eyes.

The dog-man stared at Lu Xian who was walking past him. His pupils suddenly opened and the bloody nerves in his pupils suddenly became active, as if they were about to grow out of his eye sockets and devour the living flesh and blood human.

"careful!"

Guo Hong immediately pulled Lu Xian behind him.

"Boom!"

The dog-man smashed the exhibition tank with its claws. It stood like a human, its chest and back were made of alloy, but its limbs were some kind of mutated muscles. When it stood in front of Lu Xian and Guo Hong, it looked like a biochemical orc, with a brutal aura and a terrifying body!
Wu Hen also reacted quickly. He immediately activated the sharp claws on his right arm, which were the diamond bear claws he obtained after absorbing the Rotten Bear. When the dog-man pounced on Lu Xian and Guo Hong, he decisively stabbed the dog-man with one claw.

"Keng!"

The King Kong Bear's claw broke with a sound, and Wu Hen himself was shocked.

The diamond claw that evolved after collecting so much mutant condensate was actually not as good as the dog-man's biochemical alloy. Wu Hen thought they were materials of the same level.

The dog-man immediately turned towards Wu Hen. Its sharp claws were even more exaggerated. When it slapped towards Wu Hen, energy similar to laser cutting could be seen being released at the tip of its claws!
Wu Hen moved sideways to avoid it, but found that the steel pillars and floor slabs behind him were torn into ridiculously long marks.

He stepped back quickly, then switched to the left-hand mode. Magnetic energy gathered in the palm of his left hand, and it transformed into a powerful ray that penetrated the King Kong dog man.

The King Kong Dog Man was merely repelled by the magnetic ray, leaving only a burn mark on his chest, without even penetrating the shell.

This made Wu Hen look surprised.

After all, he had used up all his wealth in recent days to buy the most advanced equipment, and had undergone multiple upgrades along the way. Outside, he was a very famous figure in the world, but when he arrived at the Blood Lake Base, he couldn't even deal with an experimental specimen?

The situation suddenly became complicated.

Wu Hen realized that he had underestimated the strength of the life in this base.

The dog-man exuded a brutal biological aura and walked towards Wu Hen with cold steps. The feeling of oppression was no less than when he faced the Tyrant Tiger Armor.

"Boom!!!!"

A bullet wrapped in red flames flew over and hit the dog-man's temple.

The dog-man's head tilted heavily, and the bullet seemed to have grazed his helmet and hit the ceiling.

The dog-man immediately turned his attention to Guo Hong, staring coldly and indifferently at Guo Hong who was shooting at him.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, the dog-man burst out with an exaggerated speed, twisted its body incredibly, jumped onto the ceiling, and then suddenly swooped down towards Guo Hong!

Guo Hong's sniper rifle didn't have time to lock on, and after missing the target, he was knocked down by the mutant dog-man.

In the past, Guo Hong would have been beheaded. The dog-man's claws were extremely sharp, and all the buildings made of new materials could not withstand its attack.

Guo Hong was wearing the Fiery Sun Armor, which was also a top-grade protective gear. It helped him to resist the sudden attack of the dog-man.

Although the dog-man has no intelligence, it seems to be implanted with very mature killing skills.

After discovering that the armor on Guo Hong's body was unusually hard, it immediately pierced its claws along the joints of the armor.

The tightly fitted flame armor still had a flaw. The dog-man soon discovered the weak spot on Guo Hong's neck, then opened his fangs and bit down hard on that spot.

There was a look of despair on Guo Hong's face.

Although he knew that Wu Hen possessed the ability to surpass these lives, he did not want to become a burden to others.

Suddenly, a figure flashed beside him.

Then Wu Hen abandoned the equipment in his hand and grabbed the dog-man's right forelimb with both hands.

"Gah!"

Wu Hen suddenly bent the dog-man's claws, and then used its sharp claws to pierce its neck!
Alloy armor and alloy claws, this would indeed render people with equipment one level lower helpless, but what if the alloy claws were used to pierce the alloy armor?

When the dog-man's alloy claws pierced into the dog-man's alloy neck, Wu Hen couldn't help but praise his own genius idea in his heart.

We still have to use the wisdom of our ancestors.

The dog-man's body was stiff, and a large amount of mutant condensate immediately flowed out of his neck. These condensates were translucent, like some kind of divine water of life, and were completely different from the condensate of the mutant species outside. Wu Hen saw that the dog-man had no repulsive force, so he exerted more force and used his claws to cut off its entire head to ensure that it would not resurrect.

Guo Hong was also dumbfounded.

This is the first time I've seen someone kill monsters like this.

The boss is the boss, he has clear ideas and he really solved the crisis in front of him.

"No...are you okay?" Lu Xian took out the medicine box and planned to disinfect Guo Hong's wound.

Guo Hong shook his head. He was not injured at all. This set of Fiery Sun Armor was indeed of high quality and perfectly solved the survival problem of him as a sniper.

"Lord Wu Tian, ​​this thing should be able to allow your steel claws to evolve to a higher level." Guo Hong said.

"Yes, Ganunumon's ultimate evolution, Titanium Alloy Ganunu!" Wu Hen also said something that no one else could understand at all.

After absorbing the mutation condensate of the Ganunu beast, Wu Hen saw that his claws had also deformed, incorporating the sharpness of the rare alloy and giving it a sharp cutting effect, making him significantly stronger.

"It...it has a string of codes hanging around its neck. Could it be the key to the safe?" Careful Lu Xian noticed this detail and picked up the thing that looked like a dog tag.

When Wu Hen cut open the other person's head, the code card fell down.

"That makes sense. Let's search this floor, maybe there'll be some good stuff there." Wu Hen nodded. He felt that he couldn't think of rushing through it. With his current limited combat power, he might not be able to deal with the test subjects on the higher levels. He still had to absorb more of the precious resources here and equip himself to a higher level.

The three of them searched the eleventh floor separately and actually found a locked door.

They tried to use the password they had just obtained to unlock the door. After the heavy door opened, the refrigerator-like temperature inside made Guo Hong and Wu Hen smile immediately.

Experienced drivers who often travel in the doomsday know that as long as an item is refrigerated, it means that it is most likely not contaminated and is relatively precious.

"What are these? They look like nutrient solution." Lu Xian walked in and found several bags of crystal clear liquid displayed in the cabinet. The liquid was in the shape of beads, like stars at night, glowing with beautiful luster.

"It's actually a life bead! This is a rare item on the black market that can be used to directly evolve life effects!" Guo Hong said excitedly.

"Something that can directly make life evolve? Is it equivalent to artificial high-level Yuanyou?" Wu Hen said.

"Yes, now I understand why those top gold diggers take such a big risk to come here. It turns out that they are developing this kind of evolutionary liquid here!" said Guo Hong.

"Will there be any side effects? After all, the safest way to evolve a living body is to use Yuanyou. Artificially created ones will eventually bring great erosion." Lu Xian said with some concern.

Wu Hen and Guo Hong looked at each other, and it was obvious that they were thinking the same thing.

"Aren't the side effects all in the bodies of the aliens we encountered?" Wu Hen said.

Lu Xian was slow to react and looked confused.

Guo Hong then explained to Lu Xian: "This Blood Lake Base is most likely the ultimate source of the mutation. There was once a very powerful organization that conducted life experiments here. They developed a large number of life beads, trying to replace the natural Yuanyou and allow some people with low evolution levels to evolve into a higher life form. However, the success of this research is bound to have countless failures. So what are the failed life beads called... Of course, mutation condensate!"

"Ah???" Lu Xian was confused for a moment and asked, "Shouldn't the failed products be destroyed?"

"Of course we can't destroy them. They are also precious experimental materials. We can just discharge them and let different species on earth absorb them, let them mutate, and use their various genes to create more bizarre life beads, so as to obtain more clinical data..." Guo Hong quickly stated his inference.

Wu Hen nodded on the side, realizing that Guo Hong's mind was very sharp, and he had already figured out the origin of this alien species through the existing clues!

"I... I still don't understand." Seeing that both of them were shining with wisdom, but she was the only one who couldn't understand, she lowered her head in embarrassment for a moment.

"Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. In any case, this Life Pearl Water is most likely a successful product, and its side effects on humans are very small. Lord Wu Tian, ​​you should absorb them all." Guo Hong said.

Wu Hen shook his head, and gave the Life Pearl Water to Guo Hong and Lu Xian, saying, "The stuff is good, but the level is not high enough. Even if I absorb it, it won't be of much help to me."

"Give it to us?" Guo Hong was a little bit unbelieving.

The value of this thing even exceeds that of pure Yuanyou. It is the perfect material that can directly advance the physical body of a living being.

"As long as you are not afraid of side effects, after all, it is man-made." Wu Hen said.

"Even if there are side effects, I can accept it. With the level we have reached now, there is a high probability that we will be killed by those failures one day." Guo Hong said firmly.

Guo Hong’s thinking is very clear. He needs to become stronger. Even if there are certain risks involved, he thinks the risk can be ignored for the time being.

"This thing is not a big problem. It's like drinking spring water and finding insect eggs in the spring water. This fact does exist, but for people who are severely dehydrated, it's no longer important." At this time, Bai Ze also spoke.

Bai Ze's words were naturally not meant to encourage Guo Hong, but to tell Wu Hen that there was indeed a treasure hidden in this place. Since there was such a good thing on the eleventh floor, if he continued to explore deeper, he might be able to find high-quality life beads that could allow Wu Hen to evolve to the eighth level of life!
