Chapter 12 Mutated Goats
Chameleons are very different from animals in nature, most of which change color by adjusting the focus and diffusion of melanin.
It achieves color change by adjusting the nanocrystals on the surface of the skin to change the refraction of light.
Therefore, the research institute used the nanocrystals on the chameleon's skin to manufacture the spacecraft shell, thereby achieving the color-changing and concealing effect.
Although the chameleon is not of high level, it is extremely precious because of its rarity. Yun Xiang patted the talisman on his chest. The feeling of being blessed with good luck was so great.
Almost all the mutant animals avoided the clouds. If the mutant plants had legs, they would probably have run away by now.
"Squeak!" "Squeak!"... Yun Xiang was stunned while biting the apple. Oh my god, there must be a brave man under a huge sum of money, and this huge sum of money is... an apple?
Yun Xiang moved his hand holding the apple back and forth, and saw the mutant mouse 2 meters away, with its front paws raised, its eyes following the apple, looking impatient.
Want to eat? Yun Xiang took another bite, and the mouse became even more anxious. If it weren't afraid of Yun Xiang, it would have pounced on him by now.
Yun wanted to throw the remaining apple to the mouse and aimed the arrow at it at the same time. The mouse seemed to notice it and jumped forward, grabbing the fruit with its sharp teeth.
"Whoosh!" It ran more than ten meters away, and Yun wanted to chase it. Where there are mice, there is food, so he had to check it out.
Yun Xiang chased the mouse for more than half an hour and nearly lost it several times before he found a few mouse holes. He used a branch to dig down the hole and found a lot of leftover melon seed shells, most of which were black melon seeds.
She was excited. Black melon seeds are a kind of seeds produced by watermelon, and watermelon is a variety of watermelon. This means that there are watermelons nearby. If she is lucky, she may encounter wild watermelons.
Yun wanted to leave the rat hole immediately and searched everywhere without stopping. Finally, she found a hidden bush. These guys were really good at hiding.
The bushes were of different heights, forming an oval circle and a natural fence for picking melons. Yun wanted to pry open a low bush and crawl in.
The area of the melons is about 100 square meters, and the densely packed melons are very pleasing to the eye.
Probably because they are wild, no one picks the vines, so each melon is not very big, about the size of the watermelon balls that children play with.
Yun wanted to pick the ripe ones and leave the raw ones on the vines. The seeds are eaten when picking melons, and there is no point in picking the raw ones, so it is better to use them for other purposes.
Yun Xiang roughly counted them and found that there were definitely more than a hundred. What made her even happier was that she actually found two watermelon seedlings.
A total of 6 watermelons were picked, plus the ones that mutated again while picking watermelons (the mutated watermelons had the same flesh as watermelons, but were yellow in color, and the seeds became as small as watermelon seeds), there were at least ten watermelons in total.
Yunxiang was like a little money-grubber, squinting his eyes and calculating his property.
Then she took out a notebook and drew her location. This was a habit she developed in her previous life. She liked to write down all the trivial matters of her daily life.
After coming out of the bushes, she did not return in the previous direction, but continued to move forward, but she did not forget to look for a place with water.
After walking for a long time, we didn't find any water source. Instead, we arrived at the foot of a mountain. The mountain was about twenty meters high, with a very flat slope and many rocks on it.
Some rocks are surrounded by vines, entwined with each other, and from a distance they look lush and green. Other rocks are surrounded by shrubs, which are blooming with colorful small flowers, white, pink, purple...
Yun wanted to see the wild wolfberry flowers, small but very beautiful. Just as she was about to go up and take a closer look, the sound of heavy beating footsteps stopped her.
It turned out to be a mutant goat. Its horns were sharp and hard. It was 2 meters long, more than 1.6 meters tall at the shoulders, and had a long beard on its chin. It was an adult goat.
I saw it jumping down the rocks on the slope, step by step, and it was obvious that it had excellent balance.
The wild goat was extremely fast. As soon as Yun Xiang shot the first arrow, it got close to him. Yun Xiang immediately stepped back, kept some distance, and drew his bow.
The wild goat chased Yunxiang relentlessly, using its horns to butt Yunxiang, but Yunxiang's body was unusually flexible, and it brushed past the horn with its side.
At the same time, he held the arrow tightly. The wild goat moved forward by inertia. Yun wanted to insert the arrow into its back, but it only injured the fur.
The wild goat immediately jumped up on its hind legs, and she bent her body into an arc, using the force to step back and throwing the prepared fire talisman at the wild goat.
The fire talisman fell on the wild goat. "Boom!" The wild goat's entire body instantly caught fire, and it let out a shrill scream.
But the fire went out in just a minute, and the wild goat was dying. Yun wanted to kill it.
It seems that her fire talisman is quite powerful. Although it cannot completely kill a level 3 mutant animal, it does not make any difference.
Believing that once her abilities improved, the power would be even greater, she couldn't help but look forward to the power of the other two talismans.
Yun Xiang looked at the charred body of the wild goat, which was no longer in good condition. "Huh?"
Yun wanted to pull out a transparent crystal the size of a fist from the mutant goat's head. There were many impurities in the crystal, and it looked like the quality was very low.
Energy crystals are formed by the condensation of energy from mutated animals or plants.
Energy liquid can be extracted by energy masters for awakened people and those with special abilities to practice.
The energy sources used by spacecraft, hovercraft, energy weapons, etc. are processed from energy bodies.
As for the plants of mutated plants and the meat and bones of mutated animals, they can all be used to make medicine, refine weapons, or be directly used as nutritional ingredients.
Of course, the energy crystals in their bodies can also be used to refine these.
Yun Xiang had never come into contact with real energy crystals before, but that didn't matter, she had learned about them from textbooks.
Energy crystals are transparent. The lower the grade, the larger the volume and the more impurities it contains. Conversely, the higher the grade, the smaller the volume and the fewer impurities it contains.
Fortunately, the energy crystal in the head was intact, otherwise it would have been a huge loss. It was really an accident that I was able to obtain the mutant crystal core.
After all, the research institute has concluded that low-level mutant plants and animals cannot condense energy crystals.
Could it really be a lucky charm? Yun Xiang didn't think so. She knew her own things and it was just a small stroke of luck at best.
She couldn't figure out what caused it, so she decided to leave it alone. After dealing with the wild goat's corpse, Yun Xiang started picking wolfberries.
The thorns on the branches of wild wolfberries are hard and sharp, and you will get stung and bleed if you are not careful. By the time Yun wanted to pick them, it was already dusk.
She hurried to find a place to stay for the night, following the gravel at the foot of the mountain. After a while, she felt the stones beneath her feet sink into the soil. It was mud! Where there is mud, there is water!
Yun wanted to quicken his pace and soon found the source of the gravel, which was a clear stream 3 meters wide.
The top of the gravel-covered river channel naturally splits into two. The gravel river channel is on a higher terrain, so the river turns a corner and extends to the distance along the other channel.
In this way, there is only the first half of the gravel river channel, and the latter part gradually becomes a gravel path because there is no water.
There is a huge rock next to the stream. The top of the rock is flat and smooth, suitable for lying down. There is a cave not far away.
Yunxiang didn't dare to stay inside at night, so he found a dry place next to the cave and set up the tent.
Then he picked up some hay nearby and cut down a dead tree, preparing to make a fire when it got dark.
She didn't plan to let the fire go out tonight. The dark night always filled people with imagination, strange thoughts and infinite fear.
