The Path of Evolution

If evolution fails, life span will be lost by 10 years for the first time, 20 years for the second time, and 40 years for the third time.

The evolver who failed three times in a row lost his life to an astonishing 70 years!

Zhao Hao did a mental calculation and said in shock: "She only has 20 years left to live?"

"It's the upper limit of life span of 20 years. I also want her to live another twenty years, but..." Scarlett choked up with tears in her eyes: "She is already eighteen years old, and she has less than two years left to live!"

Zhao Hao was silent.

He began to understand why there was always an unspeakable sadness in Annie's eyes, and why she was indifferent when she saw the large piles of flame crystals. For a person whose life span is less than two years, there are really not many things worth cherishing.

"You know, Anne used to be very beautiful." Scarlett burst out emotionally and told stories from the past: "When she was thirteen years old, she encountered a fire, and her life was completely destroyed by the fire. After she was discharged from the hospital, everyone looked at her differently than before. Her relatives regarded her as a burden, and her former friends also alienated her... She ran into the colorful light pillar before she was seventeen years old, Can you imagine how desperate she felt at that time?"

Zhao Hao was speechless.

When he was in junior high school, there was a boy in the school who suffered minor facial burns. He became the object of ridicule by many classmates, and no one wanted to play happily with him. Referring to the experience of the male classmate, it was not difficult for Zhao Hao to imagine what Anne, who was severely burned, went through in those years.

"When she first came to the evolutionary world, many people in the Flame Valley isolated her. She evolved to the rare level before me, and she took good care of me at that time. I owe everything to her for helping me today."

Scarlett couldn't stop talking after she started talking: "After she evolved for the first time, her injuries got better and she didn't look so scary. At that time, we all saw hope and thought that as long as she became a mutant evolver, her burns would be gone. It can be completely cured. But fate is so unfair to her. I failed to evolve to the mutant level twice, and she failed three times. I don’t understand why!”

Zhao Hao said: "Have you looked for advanced evolution techniques?"

"I bought a C-level evolution technique, which was the most advanced thing in the Flame Valley at that time, but she still failed to evolve." Scarlett was in a low mood, showing a kind of worry: "Anne made a decision, wait for her To evolve for the fourth time on her nineteenth birthday, she will either succeed or die. I don’t want her to take this kind of gamble. If she fails, she will die!”

Zhao Hao said: "I can understand your mood. Our first priority now is to go out. Annie's evolution can only be considered later. By the way, this is for you."

As he spoke, he took out two gold crystals and handed them over.

"Jin Jing?" Scarlett knew the goods well and recognized them at a glance.

"Well, you and Anne each have one, just consider it as compensation. I owe each of you two high-grade flame crystals. If I can find high-grade flame crystals in the future, I will compensate you. Goodbye."

Zhao Hao left after saying that. Since the break, the two parties are no longer in a cooperative relationship.

"Wait a minute." Scarlett stopped him, looking a little embarrassed and said: "I think I wrongly blamed you that day, and now I have no shame in asking you to cooperate with us again. Let me tell you some of the information I know. You, that giant invisible mantis, I saw once in the Death Mine."

Zhao Hao's eyes lit up: "Do you know the origin of that kind of thing?"

"That kind of thing is born in the dark and cannot be truly invisible. Like a chameleon, it can blend into the environment. Especially in dark mines, it is invisible to the naked eye. I was also attacked a few months ago Fortunately, Dabai happened to be standing behind me and blocked it for me. It seemed to be afraid of fire, so I lit a few flame crystals and it disappeared," Scarlett said.

"Thanks."

Zhao Hao walked over and looked at the dark green blood stain left by the mantis, and the chaos meridian in his body suddenly started to run excitedly.

Following the guidance of the Chaos Sutra, he took ten steps and saw another drop of dark green blood that was difficult to detect.

Zhao Hao was in a good mood. It seemed that the huge mantis was seriously injured. Even though it was invisible, it was bleeding all the way. Based on this inference, he could follow the blood trail to track the mantis.

The giant mantis has become a serious problem. If this thing is not dealt with, it may be attacked anytime and anywhere. It may be pierced through the heart by the invisible thing while sleeping. Zhao Hao simply struck first and ordered Xiao Xia to stay put. He took the red panda and chased after it along the blood trail.

The auxiliary effect of the Chaos Sutra came into play. Every time he walked a certain distance, Zhao Hao could always find one or two drops of dark green blood.

Gradually, he entered a remote tunnel that he had never been to before.

At the end of the tunnel, there was a light like a firefly.

Zhao Hao put away the lighting crystal and touched it quietly.

"Squeak...wu..."

A painful and weird groan came from the end of the tunnel.

Under the light of fireflies, Zhao Hao saw an incredible scene.

The huge mantis was chopped into two pieces, but it was still alive.

Its upper body and lower body were completely separated, but the lower body could still walk and automatically ran to the side of the upper body. A thick liquid was secreted from the incision, as if it wanted to stick the body together.

Zhao Hao's eyes were opened. He had heard that arthropods were very tenacious, but he didn't expect them to be so strong.

Kill it while it's sick!

violent!

Wild dash!

Zhao Hao used all his firepower, teleported twenty steps away, and pierced the mantis' head with a knife.

He followed up with a series of aggressive chops, forcibly cutting the huge mantis into more than a dozen pieces.

In this case, the giant mantis was not completely dead, and its dismembered body was still moving.

Zhao Hao dug out the evolution crystal of the mantis with a fierce move.

Once the crystal was obtained, the giant mantis stopped jumping around and was officially declared dead.

Zhao Hao then turned on the lighting crystal and saw a small transparent mantis suspended in the air.

"Wahahahahaha, brother, has your luck changed? Something actually exploded?"

Zhao Hao's eyes were filled with tears. It had been a long time since he had worn out his battle gear while fighting monsters.

"Get the advanced mutant-level transformation suit: Night Walker! Do you want to soul-bind?"

"yes!"

Zhao Hao was overjoyed. He was actually transformed into a battle suit. It was really awesome.

"Binding successful! You can obtain the stealth talent in the transformed state and enjoy the bonus of your own combat power."

Zhao Hao turned into a giant mantis about 1.6 meters tall, jumping around in the tunnel with its claws fluttering, exactly like the invisible killer. In this transformed state, his combat power is still 717 points, and he has the ability to hide.
