Become a sea squirt larva and eat a brain first

"As long as you protect these things, you can gain a lot of evolutionary progress after this reproduction is over."

Chen Mu was happy.

The most difficult step in the growth of Emperor Penguins from eggs to chicks. Although the chicks are not yet able to protect themselves, it is obviously easier for Emperor Penguin chicks to survive than eggs that will freeze to death at any time.

Now even if a blizzard comes, those emperor penguins don't need to worry about their eggs falling on the snow. This way, it will be much easier for them to get up.

In other words, the main source of death for these emperor penguin chicks is food.

Emperor penguin chicks after hatching.

Male Emperor Penguins and female Emperor Penguins have to take turns to get food, replenish their own energy and at the same time obtain the energy needed by the Emperor Penguin chicks.

In this process, whether it is a male emperor penguin or a female emperor penguin, if they are hunted by natural enemies, they will be killed.

That means that the emperor penguin chicks will not have sufficient food sources, and as a result, they can only die.

Chen Mu naturally knew this.

Therefore, when the time was almost up, Chen Mu once again walked in the direction of emperor penguin hunting.

It didn't take long to catch up with the male emperor penguins who had been walking for a while.

Chen Mu can transform into a blue whale and use its huge size to hunt on the seabed. One bite can almost meet the food needs of these emperor penguins.

Chen Mu just guarded the group of emperor penguins and helped them obtain food.

Those emperor penguins take turns protecting their chicks and hunting for food.

And as time goes by, the cub's appetite becomes bigger and bigger.

Emperor penguin parents have to choose to go out together to find food to satisfy the appetite of their chicks.

Just like that, the cubs were left behind.

Another blizzard covered the place.

The cubs imitated their parents, leaning against each other to keep each other warm.

Chen Mu was a little worried. Even the adult emperor penguins couldn't survive the snowstorm. Can these gadgets survive it?

"It's strange." Chen Mu stood in the blizzard and looked at the blizzard.

When Chen Mu encountered these snowstorms before, even he couldn't bear it.

But this time, although Chen Mu felt cold, he didn't feel overwhelmed yet.

"What's going on? The temperature seems to be warmer than the previous snowstorm."

Chen Mu didn't know that it was already spring at this time.

Although the weather here in Antarctica is still very bad, the temperature is also very low, and there are sometimes snowstorms, but compared to the beginning of winter, the temperature is obviously better now.

The emperor penguin chicks, which have grown up a lot, can hold together and withstand these snowstorms.

Chen Mu observed them for three days and saw that there were no problems with the emperor penguin chicks, so he left with peace of mind.

Go help collect food for the adult emperor penguins who have been gone for a while.

"I'm old mother." Chen Mu muttered.

There was no other way. In order to complete this task and obtain the highest evolutionary energy reward, Chen Mu could only become an 'old mother'.

over time.

Emperor penguin chicks grow bigger and bigger.

Time has passed from winter to summer.

Those emperor penguin chicks have grown to be as big as their parents.

The down on my body started to fall off.

They will shake their bodies vigorously to shake the down on their bodies.

Those feathers that symbolize adult emperor penguins are starting to appear.

This means that they are already adults.

Chen Mu, the ‘old mother’, was standing aside, watching this scene.

He was very excited.

Watch as these emperor penguins grow from eggs to chicks and now on the verge of adulthood.

He was so excited.

Because when they reach adulthood, it means that reproduction is over!

This means that the mission is accomplished!

Chen Mu glanced at the cubs in front of him.

This mission, except for the initial mistakes, resulted in the death of some emperor penguins and eggs.

This is probably not a 100% progress reward.

"But no matter what, you have to give me ninety-eight or ninety-nine percent of the reward, right?" Chen Mu muttered.

a voice sounded.

"Congratulations on completing the mission and receiving the evolutionary energy progress reward. The progress reward is 100%."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Congratulations, the evolution energy progress is 100% and you have started to evolve."

Chen Mu's body glowed with golden light.

Golden light enveloped Chen Mu's whole body.

Noticing the movement here, the emperor penguins looked at Chen Mu one by one.

As for Chen Mu, these emperor penguins all know him and are used to his existence.

However, the emperor penguins are very confused. What on earth is this emperor penguin doing here without a mate or children...

Chen Mu looked at these emperor penguins looking at him, and he smiled: "See you next time, all you cute guys."

Chen Mu's body flew up.

Being carried by the golden light, going in one direction.

Chen Mu came to his senses and found himself on a river beach.

He looked around and found a flock of birds near him.

Chen Mu looked carefully and recognized the identities of these birds.

This is a bird called the Emperor Albatross.

The Imperial Albatross, also known as the King Albatross, is a type of albatross.

birds?

Previously, Chen Mu was a penguin, and penguins are also birds.

Could it be that this evolution...?

Chen Mu subconsciously opened his consciousness and looked at himself.

Upon seeing it, Chen Mu's eyes lit up.

He raised his wings.

Looking at the mature feathers on his wings, he couldn't help but smile: "I feel comfortable!"

It's a bird!

Chen Mu changed from a clumsy penguin to the current seabird, an albatross!

"Congratulations on your successful evolution. You have obtained the evolution reward and become gigantic."

Chen Mu was slightly startled: "Gigantic?"

"After using gigantism, you can temporarily double your size." The mechanical voice of the system slowly sounded.

Chen Mu's eyes suddenly lit up.

The image of a blue whale that doubled in size immediately came to mind.

Isn't that too exaggerated?

"Choose one of two tasks."

"Task 1: Pursue an Emperor Albatross, give birth to a child and raise it to adulthood. You will be rewarded with 50% of the evolutionary energy progress."

"I don't." Chen Mu would never consider this.

"Task two, protect an Imperial Albatross cub until it reaches adulthood, and gain 50% of the evolutionary energy progress."

"Task two." Chen Mu replied.

Compared to the first one, Chen Mu chose the second one.

And this time it's much easier, all she has to do is protect the mother of an imperial albatross cub.

It's trivial.

Chen Mu looked at the imperial albatross nesting on the river beach and flapped his wings.

Fly into the air.

He could see the emperor albatross building a nest, apparently planning to lay eggs and reproduce.

"After they lay the eggs and hatch them, I'll just pick a lucky one, hehe."

Before that….

Chen Mu looked towards the ocean not far away.

Let's take the opportunity to eat something first, fill our stomachs, and collect some evolutionary energy.

Chen Mu flapped his wings and flew into the sea, staring below, looking for fish.

At this time, Chen Mu noticed a great white shark swimming on the sea.

For albatrosses, great white sharks are clearly not prey.

However, in Chen Mu's eyes, it was prey.
