Super Gene Hunting Ground

Huang Wen and a dozen girls from Chen Fei set out along the mountain road behind the college, and arrived at the water pool at the foot of Mount Yue within half an hour.

This water pool has an area of ​​more than ten acres. It is a natural pool of water. The rainwater that flows from Yueshan in rainy days accumulates here. After a long time, it forms a big water pool.

Yueshan has long been designated as a scenic spot in Shahe City, and no villagers live here.

When Huang Wen and others arrived at the water pool, they found that there were more than a dozen people here. They were all students of Hunan University.

It seems that everyone has thought of one.

The water pool is surrounded by a gentle hillside, which is usually the place for everyone to have a picnic. There are many small stove pits dug before. Huang Wen instructed some people to go to the surrounding woods to collect firewood, then make a fire, and then draw water from the water pool to boil the water.

Looking at the clear water of more than ten acres of pools, everyone began to feel some hope, at least there was water to drink.

There are several gentle shallow water areas in the pool, and some people even catch fish in it.

Everyone was bored while waiting for the water to boil. Some girls went to catch fish by the pool. Huang Wen and Chen Fei sat and chatted by the pool.

Chen Fei suddenly pointed to the center of the pool and said in surprise:

"Look, everyone, what is that?"

Everyone looked and saw a black shadow several meters long under the water surface. The shadow was motionless at first, but slowly began to move, and a ripple suddenly appeared on the water surface.

"Is that a fish?"

Everyone knows that there are fish in the pool, but they are all small wild crucian carp. Everyone has caught small fish in the picnic before.

"How is it possible, how can there be such a big fish in this pool? Look at the length of the shadow, at least 2 or 3 meters, it should be a snake, right?"

"It's autumn now, so there's no way that snakes are still swimming in the water, right?"

Not many people noticed the abnormal situation in the pool, and there were several places next to the pool where people were fishing among the aquatic plants.

After the cataclysm, it was rare to enjoy a peaceful time beside this water pool. Everyone was very relaxed and did not expect any danger.

Chen Fei saw the shadow in the water swimming towards a pool of people, and she felt an indescribable ominous feeling in her heart.

Huang Wen and others also saw it.

Suddenly, the shadows in the water accelerated, and the speed was staggering.

Water spray splashes.

Huang Wen suddenly stood up and shouted at the fisherman by the pool:

"Run, it's dangerous!"

As soon as Huang Wen finished speaking, she heard a loud bang, and a three- or four-meter-long strange fish flew out of the water, opened its huge mouth, revealing a mouth full of sharp teeth, and dragged a girl by the pool away.

All the people were frightened and petrified.

The girl was dragged directly under the pool, and she didn't even have time to shout. After a while, a bright red blood appeared in the center of the pool.

Huang Wen, Chen Fei and the others were so frightened that they shivered. I don't know who shouted:

"Run, there are water monsters in the pool!"

As a result, everyone fled down the mountain in a hurry, not even caring about the boiled water.

Everyone fled to the vicinity of the academy, away from the water pool, and then stopped to take a breath, all of them looked like they were still in shock.

Soon, news spread that there was a water monster biting people in Yueshan Water Pool.

Everyone began to vaguely feel that the gene mutation thing that the gene store Gu Bo said might be true.

Yang Xiao slept until about 6 pm and woke up on time. At this time, the sun was still hanging in the sky, and it looked like three feet above the horizon from a distance.

Yang Xiao unscrewed the water bottle and took a few sips of water, stood up and prepared to do some exercise before having dinner.

As soon as I got up and walked two steps, I heard a crackling sound from under my feet.

It felt like stepping on an egg.

Yang Xiao was stunned for a moment, then quickly raised his feet and looked down.

An unknown bug the size of a quail egg was trampled to death on the rock.

The shape of the bug looked both familiar and unfamiliar.

what?

Yang Xiao squatted down and observed it carefully.

The worm was not completely dead, the tentacles on its head kept shaking, and a few legs were struggling.

Yang Xiao took a closer look, and the more he looked, the more shocked he became.

Isn't this bug an enlarged version of an ant?

Yep, it's ants.

But how did the ants get so big? No reason!

Yang Xiao's heart was filled with panic, and he glanced around, which made him suddenly stunned. There were dozens of ants the size of quail eggs crawling around on the big rock.

"Is this the so-called genetic mutation? Didn't it say that it would take seven days?"

Yang Xiao remembered what Gu Bo said about the gene fragments, so he lifted his foot and trampled the dozen or so large ants on the rock to death. Gene fragments?

This place must not stay any longer, otherwise, I don't know when I was bitten to death by an ant.

Yang Xiao drank half a bottle of water, ate half a packet of biscuits, and two salt-baked chicken wings. He packed his backpack and prepared to go down the mountain.

Suddenly, an electric current appeared in his body, and he had to sit down reluctantly.

The current continued to flow throughout the body, and gradually disappeared after a few minutes.

What is the situation?

Why do strange electric currents appear after every meal?

Yang Xiao thought for a while, then took out another piece of salt-baked chicken leg and ate it. After eating, a trace of electricity appeared in his body again.

Could this current be related to food?

Yang Xiao thought so, and ate another bag of beef jerky, two packets of chicken wings, and a bag of biscuits.

He found two problems. First, the current is indeed related to the food. Second, the strength of the current is also related to the type of food. With the same amount of food, the current generated by beef is similar to the current generated by chicken, but more than that generated by biscuits. The current is much stronger.

But why does food generate electricity?

How do these currents affect your body?

In addition, he also found that he never seemed to have enough to eat. After eating, an electric current was generated, and he could eat other things immediately. However, he would not feel hungry if he didn't eat.

Thinking of the influence of the electric current on him, Yang Xiao suddenly realized that every time the electric current was generated, his spirit was in a state of excitement.

Yang Xiao saw an arm-thick wooden root on the ground, hesitantly picked up the wooden root, and broke it with both hands, only to hear a "click", and the arm-thick wooden root was broken directly.

Yang Xiao was startled and froze for a long time.

What's going on? Did I change too?

Seeing that the sun was about to go down, Yang Xiao didn't have time to think about this for a while. He put on his backpack and prepared to go down the mountain with an iron rod and a watermelon knife. Wrap it up and put it in the outer bag of the backpack.

Half an hour later, when night fell, Yang Xiao walked out of Yueshan and came to the playground.

There are thousands of people scattered around the playground. In addition to Xiao Zhe's team, there are several other larger teams of hundreds of people. Everyone is huddled together to keep warm. Even Huang Wen's female dinosaur team has increased by more than a dozen. a helpless girl.

The playground was a bit messy, and no one paid attention to Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao walked straight into the gene store.

Gu Bo seemed to have some impressions of Yang Xiao, and said with a smile:

"Little boy, I haven't seen you for a few days."

Yang Xiao nodded and took out the trampled ant corpse from his backpack:

"Mr. Gubo, look, is this the mutant creature you mentioned?"

Gu Bo glanced at it and said lightly:

"Today is the third day. These creatures are in the process of mutation. This thing should not have completed the mutation process."

Yang Xiao listened and took a deep breath.

An ant that has not yet completed the mutation is as big as a quail egg. After the mutation is completed, how big should it be?
