Biodata
| Feature | Information |
|---|---|
| Name | Strange Beast (异兽) |
| Alias(es) | Exotic Beast |
| Species/Race | Broad class of nonhuman creatures, including wild threats and creatures capable of being raised or studied as Pet Beasts |
| Occupation/Role | Wild predators, Beast Tide combatants, evolution subjects, and sources of Crystal Cores and other materials |
| First Appearance | Chapter 36 — Burrowing Rats emerge from a Secret Realm rift in Jiaying City 36 |
Power Progression
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| First Order, Level 9 Burrowing Rat → Second Order Berserk Blood Rat | 37 | A Burrowing Rat can reach the First Order peak, consume large quantities of flesh and blood, and condense a Blood Core to evolve. Berserk Blood Rats possess greatly increased vitality and can slowly regenerate damaged areas. 37 |
| First Order, Level 9 Drill Groundhog → Second Order Blood Steel Rat | 37–38 | A Drill Groundhog evolves by consuming flesh, blood, and metal, then condensing a Blood Core. Its evolved fur becomes steel-hard. 37 38 |
Classification and Growth
- Strange Beasts are ranked from First Order to Ninth Order, with ten levels within each order. 4
- Reaching a higher order is normally difficult; however, Beast Tides can accelerate advancement by driving Strange Beasts to consume anything beneficial to their growth. 39
- Second Order Strange Beasts can produce Crystal Cores, which may enhance a Strange Beast's strength or be traded as valuable goods. 37
- Evolution paths vary by species. Some creatures possess multiple routes based on what they consume, while others have no known evolution path. 37 94
Beast Tides
- During a Beast Tide, Strange Beasts become frenzied and devour living things in their path, leaving devastated land behind. 39
- Expert research attributes their abnormal growth to a possible Signal Hormone secreted during Beast Tides, which creates an overwhelming urge to consume beneficial materials. 39
- Rapid Beast Tide advancement comes at a cost: Strange Beasts may trade away sanity and future potential for immediate power, potentially leaving them unable to advance further. 43
- The Jiaying City Burrowing Rat outbreak began when a Black Robed Man opened a hidden Secret Realm and released Burrowing Rats after infecting them with a black mist. 36
- The resulting Berserk Blood Rat Tide was especially dangerous because slain rats were devoured by their companions, enabling stronger individuals to emerge. 43
