Under the deep sea, the seven-meter-long mutant fish was devoured by the sword-armored beast at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Except for some internal organs that could not be eaten, such as intestines, fish bladders and even bones were chewed up and eaten by the sword-armored beast, so there was no way to have enough energy.
As the mutant fish went down its stomach, the Sword-Armored Beast's body grew several centimeters at a speed visible to the naked eye, and its size expanded by a large circle.
Crack!!
The sword-armored beast grabbed the half-meter-long crystal horn with its left claw, and bit it into pieces with its sharp and hard teeth like eating a blue popsicle.
After eating and drinking its fill, the Sword-Armored Beast floated in the sea and thought for a moment.
This mutant fish that can use energy attacks is around the early fourth level, but its strength is very weak. It feels even worse than an ordinary third-level mutant beast.
However, the energy contained in the flesh and blood is very rich, almost several times that of the mutant fish of the same size, especially the blue crystal horn, which feels a bit like an energy crystal.
It seems to be related to the luminous corals on the crater.
Thinking of this, the Sword-Armored Beast licked its sharp fangs, and its huge body swayed slightly before disappearing into the dark deep sea.
In the hotel room, Chen Chu slowly opened his eyes.
Feeling the warmth that appeared out of nowhere in his body, Chen Chu couldn't help but smile. As expected, the sea is the final destination of the Sword Armor Beast.
Only in the ocean are there endless mutated creatures that allow the Sword Armor Beast to grow rapidly.
As for absorbing bird genes to soar in the sky and hunt on the ground, Chen Chu had never thought about it before.
Are the mutant beasts on land enough for the Sword Beast to eat? Will the Human Federation allow a mutant beast to grow indefinitely?
Of course not.
Even if he shows that he can control Swordbeast, the Human Federation will not allow this mutant beast to grow indefinitely, and it will expose many of his secrets.
In this case, it will naturally grow quietly in the deep ocean, and no one should shoot it.
The crystal-horn mutant fish just now not only made the Sword Armor Beast grow dramatically, but also improved its four major attributes by almost several points, an astonishing increase.
If the Sword-Armored Beast eats all the Crystal Horn Fish, not to mention its own growth, Chen Chu's four major attributes will skyrocket, and his power will become even more terrifying.
It's just... Chen Chu lowered his head slightly, looking at the somewhat transparent energy crystal in his hand, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The cultivation of the third heaven consumes a lot of energy."
The Second Heaven Realm can quickly absorb a month's worth of energy crystals. He had just practiced for an afternoon and had already consumed one-tenth of his energy.
However, the cultivation speed of directly absorbing energy crystals is indeed very fast.
He estimated that at this rate, even without strengthening attribute points, he would be able to break through to the late stage in half a month at most, and break through to the fourth level in more than three months.
But to do this he would have to consume at least nine energy crystals and dozens of contribution points. After all, he could only redeem two crystals at a 30% discount each month.
Thinking of this, Chen Chu became a little hesitant.
Because contribution points are more important to him, after condensing the Zhenwu rune with the Dragon Elephant Art, he was full of expectations for the strengthening of the Heart Eye and Bright Sword.
I don’t know what changes will occur after this sword technique is enhanced to the extreme.
In addition, you have to prepare to exchange for the advanced skill Dragon Elephant Overlord, and you also want to strengthen your equipment.
The reason why he could hunt the Golden-backed Violent Ape King so easily this time was that, apart from his strength being no less than Li Hao's, he also had a +10 enhanced battle armor and a strong physique. Even after being attacked by the Violent Ape several times, he only felt his blood boiling.
This battle also exposed the shortcomings of his weapon, which was not hard enough and not sharp enough.
If his straight sword was indestructible and unstoppable, with his speed and strength, he would have no rivals of the same level, no matter if they were mutant beasts or humans.
So I am still poor...
In the next few days, apart from practicing, Chen Chu ravaged the deep sea, ambushing and attacking those crystal-horn mutant fish, devouring them in large quantities to grow and improve his strength.
It’s just that those crystal-horn mutant fish seem to have a certain level of intelligence.
After the five seven-meter-long crystal horn fish were killed by the sword-armored beasts, the remaining ones became alert and would not swim too far even if they left the crater to find food.
And they often gather together in groups of two or three, making it difficult for the Sword-Armored Beast to attack them.
After all, if it is alone, it can also use its terrifying speed to launch a sneak attack and kill the enemy instantly.
But once they gather together, the Sword Armor Beast will be attacked by other Crystal Horn Fish the moment it kills one.
Swordbeast doesn't want to be hit by the icy beam that can freeze sea water and living things unless it's necessary. After all, it's not very confident in its own magic resistance.
While Chen Chu was concentrating on "evolving" and improving his strength, the others were not idle either.
Li Meng and Xia Youhui were also concentrating on their training, and that guy Li Hao disappeared again.
When he appears next time, it should be when he has absorbed the essence and blood of the golden-backed ape and his strength has greatly increased.
Because of the encouragement from Chen Chu and the other four, other students from Nantian Wugao High School, such as Liu Feng and others, practiced harder, hoping to break through the third level as soon as possible and catch up with them.
In this situation, students from the other two universities also felt the invisible pressure.
Although we are in different schools, we are all "geniuses" who have built their foundation and practiced within a week. Why do we feel that the gap between us is getting bigger and bigger?
Therefore, these students also actively accepted the mission and hunted down the few scattered blood gangs in the city like mad dogs.
Even some students who have not received any assignments will take the initiative to wander around the surrounding towns and cities, hoping to see if they can get lucky.
Under such circumstances, the situation in the city of Lestrup and its surrounding areas became increasingly stable, and there was even no news of the Blood Cult rebels for several consecutive days.
Under the stable situation, the economy is slowly recovering, and many commercial streets have regained some vitality at night.
…
Two hundred meters under the pitch-black sea, a group of giant squids that were one to two meters long were running around in panic, being hunted by two crystal-horned mutant fish.
The two crystal-horned mutant fish are more than eight meters long. Their broad bodies are more powerful than great white sharks. In addition, the one-meter-long blue crystal horn on their heads makes them feel oppressive.
At this time, there were two mutant fish on the left and right, and the crystal horns on their heads shot out a beam of light from time to time. After freezing several giant squids, they formed an ice pillar in the water that was as thick as a thigh and more than ten meters long.
For these giant squids that are only slightly mutated, the crystal-horn mutant fish that have mastered energy attacks are completely a dimensionality reduction attack.
Soon, hundreds of them were devoured. The Crystal Horned Mutant Fish, having eaten their fill, stopped attacking and stopped chasing the fleeing fish. It turned its body slightly and was about to return...
Bang!
The sea water in the distance exploded, and a black shadow tore through the water flow, instantly crossing a hundred meters and appearing beside a crystal-horned mutant fish, and slapped it with its thick and sharp claws.
Boom! The sea water exploded with terrifying force and speed, forming a circle of white shock waves that blasted out ten feet away.
With one blow, half of the mutant crystal horn fish's head collapsed and shattered, and it was instantly killed by the sword-armored beast. Rich blood and white liquid gushed out, dyeing the sea red.
At the moment when the Sword Armor Beast launched its attack, the Crystal Horn Fish more than ten meters away also reacted, and a blue beam of light burst out from its head.
Seeing this, the Sword-Armored Beast did not dodge or evade, but rushed forward with the dead mutant fish in its claws.
Through its observations over the past few days, it discovered that these blue cold lights are indeed very strong, but they will be greatly weakened after penetrating the body of a creature.
And it can't be used for a long time, it seems to have limited energy.
For example, now, the light beam emitted by this crystal horn fish, which consumes a lot of energy when hunting, is half as weak as at the beginning in terms of concentration and brightness.
This is also the reason why the Sword Armor Beast lurks for so long and only attacks after they have eaten and drunk their fill.
Puff! A blue beam of light passed through the mutant fish's body, and instantly a layer of ice appeared on half of the crystal horn fish's body, emitting a cold chill.
After the cold light penetrated the heavy corpse, its power was weakened again, and only a faint blue light remained when it fell on the Sword Armor Beast.
But even so, the Sword-Armored Beast felt a shocking chill coming over it, and its body stiffened slightly, but was immediately dispersed by a surge of powerful and hot blood in its body.
Bang! The mutant fish corpse, half of its body frozen, continued to move forward without slowing down, and slammed into the mutant fish fiercely, knocking it over with the huge impact force.
For a moment, the sea water shook and splashed.
At the moment when this mutant fish was knocked over, a black bone spur pierced through everything, like a black afterimage that instantly penetrated its head, completing the double kill.
Under the dark deep sea, two huge corpses over eight meters long slowly sank and floated up and down. Scarlet blood gushed out from the wounds on their bodies, dyeing the surrounding sea water red.
The tail of the black mutant beast next to it was more than seven meters long and increasingly ferocious, swaying slightly. Its light golden vertical pupils were cold, and it exuded a fierce aura.
"It seems that I was too cautious before. These cold lights are indeed very lethal to ordinary creatures, but their effects on extraordinary creatures like me are much weaker."
As it continues to evolve and grow, and its cells continue to divide and compress, the body density of the Sword Armor Beast becomes more and more terrifying, its bones are extremely strong, and its muscles contain terrifying power.
Although its talents are strength, defense, and agility, they all belong to the category of physical enhancement.
But it doesn't mean that there is no extraordinary energy in its body. It's just that these extraordinary energies are integrated into its flesh and blood and transformed into hot blood. When it was attacked just now, its instinctive burst out and dispersed the cold light.
Of course, there was also the reason that the cold light attack just now was very weak.
If the Sword Armor Beast were to be hit by a single blow from the Crystal Horn mutant fish in its prime, or even if it were to be attacked continuously by four or five Crystal Horn fish, the current Sword Armor Beast would not be able to withstand it.
This is also the reason why it lurked for a few days and finally launched an attack when it encountered two crystal-horn mutant fish 'left alone'.
After all, safety comes first.
The ocean is so big, there is no need to guard these crystal-horn mutant fish, so during this period of time, in addition to observing these fish, the Sword Armor Beast is also hunting from a distance.
In excitement, the Sword-Armored Beast grabbed two huge pieces of food with its claws on the left and right, swam its tail, and swam towards its temporary nest dozens of miles away.
There's no way, these two fish are too big.
Even if it has a terrifying digestive ability, it will still take a long time to finish eating. In this case, it will naturally return to its safe nest.
Otherwise, what if you are eating and get hit by those larger crystal horn fish that are out foraging together?
After finding out the strength of the crystal-horn mutant fish's cold beam, the Sword-Armored Beast maintained its slow growth over the next few days, hunting down a few more with the idea of shooting one shot at a time.
In this case, the evolution value continued to soar, increasing by dozens of points a day. It felt like it would take less than two months to reach the fourth evolution requirement.
Of course, the prerequisite is to keep eating this energy-rich crystal-horn mutant fish, but this is obviously impossible.
Time flies, and it is December 17th.
In the afternoon, the cool sunlight painted the earth golden.
On the balcony of the hotel, Chen Chu, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was cold and revealed a hint of cruelty and ferocity, like a human-shaped beast, very scary.
However, this terrifying aura only flashed by, and when Chen Chu opened his eyes again, his gaze had become as gentle as jade.
"Are you finally starting to exert your strength?"
Feeling the warm current in his body that was constantly strengthening his constitution and his body becoming increasingly dense, a faint smile appeared on Chen Chu's handsome face.
From a ten-centimeter-long hexagonal salamander to its present size, the clone has finally begun to gain strength.
In addition to becoming increasingly ferocious and huge, it also began to rapidly drive Chen Chu's own strength to grow, and began to surpass those "geniuses" of the same level at a terrifying speed.
Just now, his highest strength attribute exceeded 400 points, and his physical fitness was over 360 points. It had only been more than half a month since the third evolution of the Sword Armor Beast.
Of course, such a rapid improvement is also related to the group of crystal-horn mutant fish.
With sufficient high-energy food, both the main body and the clone are growing rapidly, and the evolution value has accumulated by several hundred points during this period.
At this moment, all the students received the information of the meeting. Chen Chu paused slightly and asked, "What happened?"
