Chapter 74: Chapter 74 Angel Envoy Mutation
Originally, Zhu Xiong and the others had considered having Su Han and Bai Qilan oversee the use of the injection, but they didn't want to delay Su Han's affairs, so they didn't call him.
Now that they had Su Han, it was naturally better than ever.
"I'll do it."
Zhu Xiong held the syringe, which already contained the blood extracted from the Meat Mountain Demon.
He aimed at his own zombie's heart and inserted the needle directly into it. Quickly, a full syringe of Meat Mountain Demon's blood was injected.
Where the injection took place, the zombie's bright red muscles began to wriggle as if a bug had burrowed under the skin, which looked somewhat nauseating.
But, without a doubt, the flesh and blood started to take effect quickly after entering.
Zhu Xiong's brow furrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "It seems like there's a surge of strength inside it."
Through the connection they shared, Zhu Xiong focused his senses and could faintly perceive the difference.
Bai Qilan observed carefully, recording and saying, "The blood of the Meat Mountain Demon is inducing the mutation of the zombie, but since the injection liquid hasn't been purified, the energy is a bit weaker. This process shouldn't be too fast."
Just as she said, under everyone's watchful eyes, a good ten minutes passed, and the flesh continued to writhe, only now it spread from the heart area to other places.
Time ticked away, and then a drastic change suddenly occurred.
"Roar"
The zombie began to growl lowly, its spine protruding fiercely with a crackling sound as if signaling something.
Soon, the zombie's body bones began to distort, and its stature started to grow, turning into a little giant over two meters tall.
The zombie's muscles bulged, especially the left arm, which became even thicker, growing gray-white, heavy keratin. Its claws extended, five centimeters long, sharp and daunting.
Zhu Xiong sensed carefully, his eyes suddenly brightening with excitement, "It's awakened a skill!"
Everyone: ???
The change in the Rot Skin Rat was unexpected, compared to Zhu Xiong's Angel Envoy rotting corpse, it was no less striking.
Yan Meiyu, paying careful attention, suddenly looked up at Su Han and said, "The Rot Poison skill has advanced to Intermediate, which can paralyze or knock out those poisoned and be controlled."
On hearing this, everyone was shocked. However, Su Han's eyes lit up.
"Test out your Rot Poison first, flip Nie Rilong over with it so he doesn't cause trouble; and recall your Blood Bone Lizard."
"...."
The crowd looked at Su Han in astonishment; he was ready to make immediate use of it.
Although not sure what to say about it, considering Nie Rilong was already so constrained, it would be difficult for him to summon his Angel Envoy back, and now with the added poison, it looks like he might never control his Angel Envoy again.
One could only say that Su Han's thinking was indeed effective, especially against enemies.
"I'll go in a minute," Yan Meiyu paused, then asked, "What about the Giant Claw Zombie and the Meat Mountain Demon? Should I control them too?"
Before Su Han could answer, Bai Qilan spoke, "It's best not to right now. The toxicity has not been tested, we don't know the effects, or if it will affect the effectiveness of the blood, spinal fluid extraction, and the injectable."
After thinking, Su Han agreed, saying, "There's no need to bother with monsters; they're not as troublesome as people."
Everyone had completed their Angel Envoy's injection-induced mutations. Although those who used the Half-Fish Monster's injection did not fully mutate, as long as they made enough contributions, they would have no problem getting more injections, even from more powerful monsters.
Without realizing it, Zhao Yimin, Cheng Xiyuan, and Xia Ning found themselves silently competing, wanting to do more.
After all, in this post-apocalyptic world, the stronger you are, the better you can survive.
As for Zhu Xiong and others, just the injection itself was enough to improve their strength, not to mention the second Angel Envoy from the Second Order, and the Divine Initiation Ritual for breaking through their Angel Envoy's limit to trigger evolution—all means for them to grow stronger.
The desire for power would also drive them to work harder and maintain the camp.
The deep intertwining of interests made them staunch defenders of the community.
Su Han, on the other hand, had gained the contract of seven First-level Intermediate individuals including Zhu Xiong and Gan Xinglei, as well as several First-level Intermediate prospective Contractors like Zhao Yimin.
With more people at his disposal, he could do more things; it was time to make some preparations and then take action against the Fish Monster tribe.
