The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 50: Speculations on Mutation and Evolution

There were six bodies in the corridor, including Liu Erlong's.

Most of them were killed by Liang Yuan, and Zhao Kai and Ding Yan also made some finishing moves.

However, the greatest damage was caused by Liang Yuan.

The system automatically determined that these mutant creatures were killed by Liang Yuan.

There were six bodies, plus the previously killed Mao Xiaoqiang, Qian Li, Qian Li's son Zhou Jie, and Chen Hu's two younger brothers who were blocking the door.

In just half a day, Liang Yuan has killed more than ten people!
And his points reached an unprecedented 104 points!
Among them, the one who contributed the most was Liu Erlong, who contributed 20 points alone!
Others such as Mao Xiaoqiang and others also contributed 7 to 8 points!
What surprised Liang Yuan the most was that Qian Li’s son actually contributed a full 9 points!
Among all the mutated creatures, he is second only to Liu Erlong!
How exactly does the system determine how many points a creature is worth?

Although Liang Yuan had some guesses in his mind, he was still not very sure.

He rested for a while and looked at the body of Liu Erlong with a severely deformed head, with a serious expression.

"At Liu Erlong's last moment of life and death, something terrible seemed to have happened."

"Those red scales on his face not only enhanced his defense, but also increased his strength a lot in that instant."

With his strength twice that of an ordinary person, he almost couldn't suppress Liu Erlong.

It can be imagined that the power that Liu Erlong burst out at that moment was almost twice that of an ordinary person!
So what exactly happened to Liu Erlong?

What caused him to change suddenly?
Liang Yuan already had the answer in his mind.

He stood up and asked the stunned Zhao Kai, "Is your hand okay?"

During the fight just now, Liu Erlong burst out with tremendous strength and crushed Zhao Kai's wrist.

Zhao Kai came back to his senses, looked at his swollen wrist, endured the pain, stood up and said, "I'm afraid it's broken."

Liang Yuan frowned. At this time, there were no medical conditions at all.

He said in a deep voice: "Go back first, let's work together to find a solution, I will deal with these corpses."

As he said that, he turned his head to look at Ding Yan and said, "Call Lao Ma, Cai Zhi and the others to come out."

Before Ding Yan could knock on the door, Cai Zhi on the opposite side had already opened the door. Looking at the bodies on the ground outside, he was stunned for a moment. His face changed slightly, and he hurriedly asked, "Are you all right?"

Lao Ma also held a kitchen knife, looked around, and his pupils shrank slightly.

He shouted, "Xiao Liang, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Zhao Kai has a broken wrist. You guys take him home to take care of him. I'll clean up here. Brother Cai and Lao Ma, you two can come with me later."

"Where are we going?" Lao Ma asked subconsciously.

Liang Yuan glanced at Liu Erlong's body on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Take over Liu Erlong's belongings, and deal with his lackeys as well."

The two of them suddenly felt a chill in their hearts. Liang Yuan's methods made them feel frightened.

Ding Yan immediately said, "I'll go with you too."

Liang Yuan looked at her, and seeing that she looked determined, he nodded slightly.

He bent down and began to search the body.

The main thing is to find the keys on these people.

Without the key, even for him, it would be very difficult to break into the door.

Several keys were found, and Liang Yuan also found cigarettes, chocolates, bread and other things in the pockets of several people.

For people nowadays, the most precious thing is undoubtedly food, followed by cigarettes, alcohol and other things.

During the great flood, these things really became less and less as each one was used.

After Liang Yuan finished the search, he checked the bodies one by one, wanting to see if there were any changes in these people similar to those in Liu Erlong.

However, after searching around, there was no change in anyone except Liu Erlong!
It seems that Liu Erlong is the only one who has undergone that kind of mutation!
Yes, mutation!
Liang Yuan speculated in his mind that the strange phenomenon happening to Liu Erlong should be the mutation that the system had mentioned repeatedly!

"Mutated creatures, this is a mutation."

He thought to himself, "Other people haven't shown obvious mutations. I'm afraid it has something to do with the progress of the mutation."

He glanced at his system panel.

Host: Liang Yuan

Constitution: 0.8
Power: 1.9
Agility: 0.8
Spirit: 0.7
Mutation Progress: 1%
Points: 112
Raffle items: Lao Gan Ma, toilet paper, soap...

"If everyone has a panel, then everyone should also have the mutation progress."

"As the leader of this group, Liu Erlong must be able to eat his fill every day, so he must have eaten a lot of mutated fish from the flood, so his mutation rate should be the highest among all of them."

"That's why the system gave me 20 points after it determined that I had killed him."

Liang Yuan analyzed in his mind: "There is another point. Liu Erlong must have reached a critical point in the progress of mutation. Therefore, while other people have not changed, he has obvious signs of mutation."

"What is this critical point? Did the mutation progress to a certain extent? Or was it that his strong will to survive between life and death stimulated this mutation? And caused this mutation to appear?"

Liang Yuan frowned, thinking about all this.

His hands were not idle, and he tried several times to experiment with the strange red scales on Liu Erlong's face.

After testing, we found that the scales are really hard.

It took all his strength to break the scales with the steel crowbar.

You know, his total strength is twice that of an ordinary person.

In other words, if ordinary people hold weapons, they cannot even break through the defense of these scales!

Realizing this, Liang Yuan couldn't help but take a breath.

"Mutation... evolution..."

"Luckily, I acted quickly. If I had given Liu Erlong a little more time, his mutation would have become even more severe. Even I wouldn't have been able to do anything to him, right?"

He was secretly shocked, and suddenly thought of another question.

"There are quite a few people in the building who eat mutant fish, but none of them eat as much as Liu Erlong."

"If these people continue to eat mutant fish for a long time, won't they mutate sooner or later and evolve abilities similar to Liu Erlong's?"

"Besides this building, there are definitely many people like Liu Erlong!"

At this moment, a feeling of anxiety arose in his heart.

I finally drew some strength attribute, and I thought I could defeat most people and have some ability to protect myself.

However, Liu Erlong's mutation and evolution this time made the sense of security in his heart disappear in an instant.

"No, I must become stronger quickly too!"

Then he looked at Liu Erlong's body and frowned again.

"But after the mutation, I need to become neither human nor ghost. The price is..."

He felt a little resistant, but then he had an idea.

"Perhaps I can draw more attribute points through continuous lottery draws, and directly increase my strength by adding points."

"Just adding points seems to increase the mutation progress."

Liang Yuan thought about it and threw all the bodies off the building.

The flood roared and instantly swallowed up the corpses.

Liang Yuan stared at the turbid flood. From time to time, various marine creatures jumped out, and he felt mixed emotions.

This is the true end of the flood world.
