Chen Chu pondered for a moment, then asked softly, "How do I operate this gene absorption? Are there any restrictions?"
After several days of research, Chen Chu discovered that this property page was not very intelligent and would only give reminders when certain conditions were met.
And when it comes to the prompt that is currently being triggered, it will respond to his inquiries.
Sure enough, a row of transparent text slowly emerged.
"When starting evolution, the clone needs to completely devour the organism whose genes are to be fused, and absorb the strongest gene of the organism to optimize itself."
"Note: You can only fuse one gene each time you start evolution."
"Only one gene can be fused at a time? But even so, it's good enough." Chen Chu licked his lips and suppressed the excitement in his heart.
At this moment, countless thoughts emerged in his mind, thinking about what biological genes should be integrated into the salamander clone.
Each time it evolves, it can integrate a biological gene. Chen Chu is confident that it only needs to evolve a few more times before the salamander clone can become very powerful.
First, he eliminated elephants, lions, tigers, etc.
Not to mention whether he can get these animals, and even if he does, he won’t be able to eat them all in a short period of time, and these animals actually have average genetic potential.
Although elephants are the largest animals on land, they are not very outstanding in terms of burst of power, speed and flexibility, including lions and tigers.
If we were to ask what the most extreme individual creature on Earth is, it would naturally be insects.
Ordinary ants can lift objects dozens of times their own weight, but mammals cannot do this because of their tiny size and extreme structure.
There are also fleas, which can instantly jump more than 200 times their own body length, which is equivalent to a 1.7-meter-tall person jumping more than 200 meters high.
So after a little thought, Chen Chu set his target on insects.
It's just that he doesn't know much about insects, but that's not a problem.
Chen Chu turned on the computer and typed in "What is the most powerful insect in the insect world?" on the search page.
Then dozens of hot words popped up below.
The hexagonal salamander was too weak, and its limbs could hardly even support itself and crawl, so Chen Chu's first choice was to strengthen its strength.
…
At nine o'clock in the morning, Chen Chu took a taxi to the city's largest flower, bird, fish and insect market.
Here you can find any pet, whether it flies in the sky, crawls on the ground, or swims in the water.
For example, the original body's hexagonal salamander pet was bought by Chen Chu here.
On the street, in a shop called Qixiang Bird and Insect, Chen Chu walked directly into it and asked the young man who was sitting at the coffee table drinking tea: "Boss, do you have rhinoceros beetles here?"
"Rhinoceros beetle, yes." The young boss nodded.
Compared with ants, which have strength dozens of times its own, rhinoceros beetles are known as the strongest insects. Their greatest record is prying up an object 850 times its own weight.
This burst of power far exceeds that of other animals and insects.
The young boss brought Chen Chu inside and pointed to several boxes on the shelf and introduced: "I have three varieties of rhinoceros beetles here."
"They are the Rhinoceros Beetle, the Trass South Sea Beetle and the Mammoth Beetle. Which one do you want?"
There are three kinds of rhinoceros beetles, each with a different body shape. The largest one, the woolly mammoth rhinoceros beetle, is half the size of Chen Chu's palm and more than ten centimeters long. The South China Sea rhinoceros beetle is about the same size.
After a quick glance, Chen Chu chose the last and smallest one: "Boss, I want a double-forked rhinoceros beetle."
"Okay, fifty dollars a piece. Do you want to buy some feed?"
"Need not."
After scanning the code to pay, Chen Chu left the flower and bird market carrying a small box containing a rhinoceros beetle, and luxuriously chose to take a taxi back. He was a little impatient.
In the room on the second floor, the newt lying on the table looked at Chen Chu, with a box of rhinoceros beetles next to it.
Suppressing the expectations in his heart, Chen Chu opened the box and grabbed the rhinoceros beetle.
Compared to the mammoth beetle, which is more than ten centimeters long and as big as half a palm, the two-pronged rhinoceros beetle is only about five centimeters long, which is not very exaggerated.
As if the rhinoceros beetle sensed its fate at this moment, a powerful struggling force came from Chen Chu's hand.
Unfortunately, facing the fingers pinching both sides of its body, it had nowhere to gain leverage even if it was very strong. Chen Chu simply grabbed its head and body and broke it apart.
With a click, the rhinoceros beetle was killed and its head and body were separated.
Then it is eaten bit by bit by the salamander.
At the same time, Chen Chu called out the attribute page, and with a thought, he clicked on the option at the bottom: "Whether to enable evolution?"
boom!
Along with the confirmation, Chen Chu felt that a long-accumulated hot power burst out from the salamander's body, sweeping across his body like a mountain torrent.
Under this evolutionary force, the bones and muscles of the axolotl have undergone earth-shaking changes, and the cells have divided and compressed frantically.
Even deeper levels of genes are changing and evolving.
When the salamander clone began to evolve, streams of heat flowed out of Chen Chu's body, strengthening the muscles, bones, and cells wherever they passed.
This change surprised him a little.
However, compared to the torrent-like evolutionary energy in the salamander's body, the amount in his body was very small, which only made him a little stronger.
This evolution took about half an hour.
By the time it was finished, the salamander clone on the table had changed drastically.
The body length is still 30 cm, but the shape has become much more slender and coordinated, and the belly that originally had rib marks in the middle is now covered with solid muscles.
The wide and flat head became a little rounder, and the three pairs of horns on both sides became serrated, with a hard keratinous color, not as fleshy as before.
The dorsal fin also spreads from the hindquarters to the neck and becomes keratinous white teeth, then becomes wide and flat again after extending to the tail.
The biggest change is the slender limbs, which have doubled in thickness and become strong and powerful, especially the pair of hind legs with obvious muscles and full of explosiveness.
Even the claws on its limbs were black in color, with sharp keratin growing on them, giving off a sharp aura.
This is still a change in appearance.
In Chen Chu's perception, the bones of the salamander became stronger than before, and the muscles all over its body were as explosive as steel wires.
These changes are brought about by absorbing the rhinoceros beetle genes.
The Rhinoceros Beetle's powerful strength comes from its muscle fibers and sturdy exoskeleton, which can burst out and withstand 850 times its own weight.
It can be said that the current salamander clone has evolved into another species, and only has some relationship with the axolotl in appearance.
After feeling the changes in the clone, Chen Chu moved his mind and called up the attribute page.
