The Strongest Eschatological Evolution

As we all know, this apocalypse was brought about by the evolutionary rain. All people, animals, and plants that have come into contact with that rain will mutate and evolve!

Compared with the huge corpse rate of humans, animals on Earth are undoubtedly the most successful in evolution. They collectively evolve into mutant beasts with a zero probability of corpse transformation!

But everyone walked all the way from Longcheng to Kyoto, knowing that the most successful in evolution are not animals on Earth, but plants that have now occupied the entire Earth!

Although it seems that these plants growing on the land have only become taller and more vigorous. But think about it carefully, apart from plants, neither humans nor animals have occupied all the land in the world!

Moreover, the mutated plants have been extremely strengthened in all aspects, and there are traces of them even in the harshest environment!

Even in the current low temperature of nearly 20 degrees below zero, the mutant plants around are still growing luxuriantly!

The lush greenery makes people subconsciously ignore the impact of seasons on plants! Not only are the individual vitality strong, but their reproduction and spread are also quite amazing. To this day, almost wherever there is land, they will take advantage of every opportunity to occupy living space!

Even in the base, a lot of manpower and material resources have to be spent on regularly cleaning up the mutant plants in fixed areas, otherwise it would be very difficult for people to walk on the road, let alone driving!

And the large-scale spread is only the basic change of mutant plants after the end of the world. Although it is also miserable, compared with the more dangerous mutants in plants, they can be described as cute!

Mutants, that is, those mutant plants that have come to life, they are hidden among thousands of their kind, but they have strong aggressiveness and a huge threat to humans.

When they are motionless, even Jiang Yi cannot accurately detect their existence. With this ability, they are the most terrible killers after the end of the world!

Often sneak attacks on unprepared teams, many people in the base died tragically under their branches and leaves!

If it weren't for the small number of these mutants, and most of them continued the restriction that plants cannot leave the land, I'm afraid this world would have been completely occupied by mutant plants long ago, leaving no room for humans and animals to survive!

Fortunately, there are negative and positive mutations. For example, many edible species of plants have undergone mutations in their evolution and have various magical functions. For example, the green dates that Jiang Yi just distributed to everyone are mutant fruits that can restore mental strength!

However, mutant fruit trees generally live in sparsely populated areas. Although there are several fruit trees inside the capital base, the mutant fruits produced by these few trees are at most better than nothing, and can only be used as rewards for those who have contributed. It can't cause any waves at all!

Even before, Jiang Yi and the adventure team of the Ren family and the three parties of Feixiong Liangcheng went to the old house of the Ren family together, collected a large number of mutant fruits, and put them in the base, but they didn't cause any waves.

Although there are already wood-type ability users who artificially produce mutant fruit trees, Jiang Yi has tasted them and they are very different from real wild mutant fruit trees! First of all, the taste is a world of difference!

Secondly, the level of mutant fruits in the wild is generally not low, and third- and fourth-level fruit trees can also be encountered!

However, in the base, only the second-level artificial mutant fruit has appeared so far! The grade and taste are secondary. The most precious thing about mutant fruit is the effect it can produce!

But for some reason, the artificial mutant fruit cannot be said to have no various properties, but the effect of the properties is minimal, and it cannot be compared with the real wild mutant fruit at all!

Jin Peng and Jiang Yi said that in the black market, a pound of first-level wild mutant fruit has reached a high price of ten first-level corpse cores! But the first-level artificial fruit is only worth two first-level corpse cores! The difference is more than five times...

Even so, there is still no market for it. After all, people who have the ability to get wild mutant fruit will not care about the corpse cores. Such a rare thing can be kept for their own consumption or used to develop connections...

Jiang Yi used mutant fruit as currency to trade mutant potions with Liang Cheng and Ren Shuyu.

In the eyes of the middle-level personnel of the base, the value of mutant fruit far exceeds the corpse core of the same level! And these are just three common forms of mutant plants after the end of the world!

What really caught Jiang Yi's attention were the seven towering trees that appeared out of thin air outside the base. Tang Feng had told him that these seven trees had indeed mutated after the end of the world, but no one knew where they came from!

It was as if they appeared out of thin air, or a small tree on the road suddenly mutated! But it is undeniable that anyone who underestimated these seven trees would die with regret!

At the beginning, the base had sent seven teams to check the seven trees separately, but only one team came back in the end, and the people who came back were either crazy or stupid!

The information brought back was extremely limited!

Only the tree with the "Awakening Fruit" had been initially conquered by Jiang Yi and Tang Feng!

Not only did they successfully return alive, they also brought back more than a dozen "Awakening Fruits"! But the seven trees also left a very deep impression in Jiang Yi's mind!

Even if possible, Jiang Yi would like to stay away from the seven trees. After all, this is a terrible mutant tree that can make people fall into it without knowing it!

Even the top brass at the base has classified the seven trees as confidential, and anyone who knows about the seven trees has been ordered to keep silent, for fear that once the public gets to know, some people will come and die for the sake of the awakening fruit!

But it is clear that the top management has never given up the exploration of the seven trees! Otherwise, how could Tang Feng appear near these seven trees!

As one of the most capable people in the base, Tang Feng should have more important things for him to do, but he always goes out alone for various reasons. Every time he leaves, he disappears for several days without a trace. Both Tang Zhenghu and Guo Jingtian are tight-lipped about his whereabouts, making it impossible to grasp his true whereabouts!

Now Jiang Yi can only guess based on the area where he appears!

Although they have arrived at the seven trees now, the trouble has just begun. After all, the seven trees are so huge that it is much more difficult for them to find Tang Feng in this area than they imagined...

"Be careful!" Everyone was on their way, Tang Bing suddenly shouted softly, grabbed Zhang Yizhe beside him, and threw him towards Jiang Yi, while a black shadow shot over.

Everyone immediately dodged vigilantly, and Tang Bing raised his right arm, and a white crossbow arrow instantly shot out from the arm guard on his arm, accurately shooting at the black shadow!

"Meow!" With a scream, the fat and round creature let out a shrill cat cry, and fled towards the shadow in panic...

Everyone saw clearly that the one who attacked Zhang Yize was actually a level 3 mutant cat, but this cat looked no different from a pig from a distance, and was not as flexible as a mutant cat should be. Its escape was so clumsy that it made people speechless!

The mutant cat that escaped had a white bone arrow stuck in its neck, which penetrated three-quarters of its body, causing the mutant cat to scream in pain!

Everyone couldn't help but look at Tang Bing's arm. That arm guard was the 'Cangyan Jingshou Crossbow' that Jiang Yi had used before!

This equipment was quite powerful. It was a silver-level equipment that Jiang Yi obtained after killing Gui Gui's mother. It was also one of his killer weapons in the early stage. It saved Jiang Yi from danger several times!

It was a treasure that Aya and the others coveted, but it was later given to Tang Bing by the boss...

Zhang Yize's forehead twitched, looking at the mutant cat that turned around and fled. He didn't expect that he was almost attacked and injured by such a waste. He was furious and waved his hand. A black hole suddenly appeared beside him...

"Wait a minute!" Tang Bing suddenly stopped the long spear that was about to be fired and stared at the direction where the mutant cat fled: "Jiang Yi, let's chase it and see where it escaped to!"

Zhang Yize snorted when he heard Tang Bing say this, and the spear tip exposed from the black hole on his side slowly retreated...

Jiang Yi looked at the mutant cat running towards the tree and nodded: "Follow it and see!"

Although the injured mutant cat was still very fast, its fat and swollen body still greatly limited its speed. In addition, the crossbow arrows shot through its vital parts, which made it impossible for it to escape the pursuit of everyone.

At least that's what Jiang Yi thought, but when they followed along the road, they were shocked to find that the mutant cat that had just left their sight had disappeared...

"How is it possible? It was injured and could still run so fast?" Aya couldn't believe it.
