Reborn as a Giant Scorpion: Evolution by Consumption

"Master, before you swallow the blood orchid, do you need to test its composition?" Xiao Luo in the evolution system suddenly asked.

Li He: "Of course it needs."

A minute later, Xiao Luo said: "Master, the blood orchid component contains a strange hormone. This hormone can promote the acceleration of animal cells to grow and divide and regenerate."

Li He said: "In other words, these boa constrictors can grow into giant pythons that are more than ten meters long, mainly because the blood orchid contains this strange hormone?"

"Yes, Master." Xiao Luo replied.

Li He said again: "Then, can this strange hormone really increase human life span? I heard that Dr. Jack said that the blood orchid has another name called ‘the flower of immortality’!"

Xiao Luo said: "Master, theoretically, it is indeed possible. The main reason for human aging is that the speed of dying cells exceeds the speed of regenerating cells, and the exotic hormones in the blood orchids, theoretically, happen to promote The ability of cells to divide and regenerate."

"Is it just theoretically possible?" Li He asked.

"Yes, master, at least at the current level of human medicine, it can only be theoretical." Xiaoluo said, "because this strange hormone itself is a kind of mutant hormone, with the current human scientific and technological capabilities, It is difficult to precisely control its trajectory."

Li He asked: "If this strange hormone is injected into the human body, what will happen? Will it become a giant?"

Xiao Luo said: "If it can't be precisely controlled, no one can know where it will develop. If it is injected into the human body, the greatest possibility is that it will grow savagely in the human body at will."

"Humans may grow sarcomas on their foreheads, or they may grow noses on their cheeks, or cause intra-abdominal organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, and stomach to be extremely large! In short, in humans, Before precisely controlling this strange hormone, it can only make humans deformed and ugly!"

Hearing this, Li He asked with a little worried: "Xiao Luo, then it won't be a hindrance for me to swallow this blood orchid, right?"

Xiao Luo said: "Master, please don't worry about this. Although I am also exposed to this strange hormone for the first time, I am 99.9% sure that I can precisely control it."

"Ninety-nine-nine-nine-nine percent? It sounds like one hundred percent!" Li He said, "Xiao Luo, why haven't these giant pythons grown deformed?"

Xiaoluo explained: "Master, I found some antibodies in the genes of the two giant pythons you swallowed before. It is precisely because of the existence of this antibody that these giant pythons have been in the blood after swallowing the blood orchid. A healthy state of growth."

Li He thought for a while and asked, "Xiao Luo, are these antibodies found in all snakes, or are they unique to snakes in the Amazon rainforest?"

Xiao Luo said: "I didn't find this antibody in the cobra and other snakes that my master swallowed before. So far, I have only found this antibody in the anaconda. And I suspect this blood orchid. The antibodies in the anacondas are not natural products."

"Isn't it a product of nature?" Li He was surprised. "Is this thing cultivated by intelligent creatures with high technology?"

Xiao Luo said: "Master, I still don't have a way to fully determine this, but there is no doubt that the antibodies in the blood orchid and the anaconda are highly likely to be cultivated by intelligent organisms."

Li He pondered for a while and asked, "Xiao Luo, if this thing is really cultivated by intelligent creatures, can you determine the time of their cultivation?"

"Master, I can't determine the exact time. But I can be sure that they have been cultivated for a long time." Xiao Luo said.

Li He: "Xiao Luo, if everything is accurate, how long is a short period of time?"

Xiao Luo: "Master, this period of time is at least 100 years."

"A hundred years?" Li He thought, "A hundred years ago, human technology was far worse than it is now. There is absolutely no way to make such high-tech things. Could all of this be made by aliens?"

Are the exotic hormones in the blood orchids and the antibodies in the pythons made by aliens?

If it is really made by aliens, what is their purpose?

Although Li He has many questions in his mind, time has passed so long, and there is no way to investigate it now.

All Li Hye needs to do now is to swallow all the blood orchids in this valley.

Compared to the huge size of the giant python, the blood orchid is much more petite and cute.

With fifty-three blood orchids, Li He only swallowed them all in three minutes!

The first blood orchid provided Li He with 36 points of evolutionary energy, and the evolutionary energy provided by subsequent blood orchids was reduced for the second time.

By the time Li He swallowed the last blood orchid, the evolutionary energy that this blood orchid could provide had fallen below 10 points, which was a pitiful 7.1.

In total, the fifty-three blood orchids provided Li He with 1082 evolutionary energy.
