Failed Super Gene Evolution Seed

More than two hundred years ago, a large number of strange creatures with metallic bodies suddenly appeared all over the world, becoming a nightmare for human survival.

These strange creatures, which humans called Gene Mutation Creatures, were a completely different species from humans. Their bodies were actually composed of steel and even crystals, completely different from the flesh and blood bodies of humans.

Even the lowest level of Gene Mutation Creatures had bodies as hard as steel, and ordinary bullets could hardly cause effective damage to them. High-level Gene Mutation Creatures had body strength that reached an unimaginable level for humans. The thermal weapons that humans were proud of could hardly cause effective damage to them, and human society was destroyed in a short period of time.

It wasn't until someone discovered that the Gene Mutation Fluid within the Gene Mutation Creatures could cause humans to undergo incredible, abnormal growth, like a worm transforming into a butterfly, evolving bodies like metal armor, and that the Gene Mutation Key could be used to control Gene Mutation Creatures, transforming them into pets, that humans finally had the capital to fight against Gene Mutation Creatures.

Today, more than two hundred years later, it is an era where Gene Mutators and Gene Mutation Pets are rampant. Bases built with Gene Mutation Creature materials are also appearing more and more all over the world, and human civilization is gradually showing signs of revival.

"There's actually such a thing? This is unscientific!" Lin Shen looked at the strange creature frozen in front of him like a statue, his eyes filled with uncontrollable surprise.

This was a Steel Grade Gene Mutation Creature, resembling a horse or an ox, its entire body emitting a luster like pig iron. At this moment, it maintained the posture of a horse galloping in the air, standing motionless. Anyone who saw it would think it was a pig iron statue.

But Lin Shen was absolutely certain that it was not a statue, because a few minutes ago, it was charging around like a tank, almost knocking him to the ground.

Although this was only the lowest level of Gene Mutation Creatures, a Steel Grade creature, its strength and speed were not comparable to ordinary humans. Even creatures with natural divine strength like elephants and rhinos could not compare to it.

But Lin Shen only used his finger to tap it, and this Steel Grade Iron Horned Beast was frozen there as if its acupoints had been struck.

Of course, Lin Shen didn't know Seven Steps of Conflict. In fact, Seven Steps of Conflict in movies and TV shows is not the same thing as real Seven Steps of Conflict. This kind of Seven Steps of Conflict that can freeze someone with a single tap has only been seen in movies and TV shows.

Even in today's world where humans can cultivate and evolve, no matter how strong their own power becomes, even if they can pierce a steel plate with one finger, it is impossible to strike the acupoints of an ordinary human, let alone strike the acupoints of a Gene Mutation Creature as hard as steel.

Lin Shen stroked his finger, still somewhat in disbelief. He had actually done it.

Not long ago, he found a very strange Gene Mutation Egg in the warehouse. The so-called Gene Mutation Egg was actually an egg laid by a Gene Mutation Creature.

Since the appearance of Gene Mutation Creatures, it has been more than two hundred years, and humans have long since developed a complete set of theories and methods for cultivating and evolving using Gene Mutation Creatures.

Gene Mutation Eggs are not rare items. Some low-level Gene Mutation Eggs are not worth much more than the cost of a meal.

Lin Shen was also in the business of Gene Mutation Eggs and had seen countless kinds of Gene Mutation Eggs, but he had never seen such a strange and bizarre Gene Mutation Egg.

That Gene Mutation Egg was like it had been pixelated, its entire body covered with constantly changing tiny colored light grids, looking dreamy and unreal.

Lin Shen studied it for a long time but couldn't find anything different about that Gene Mutation Egg. Even when he showed it to his employees, they couldn't see the constantly changing pixels on the Gene Mutation Egg at all. In their eyes, it was just an ordinary Steel Grade Gene Mutation Egg emitting a black metallic luster.

This made Lin Shen think for a while that he was having hallucinations, until after he slept, that Gene Mutation Egg inexplicably returned to normal, and after the pixelation phenomenon disappeared, Lin Shen found that a piece of information had inexplicably appeared in his mind.

Failed Super Gene Evolution Seed - Seven Steps of Conflict: Affect the state of a creature by striking its acupoints.

After that, things gradually became strange. As long as Lin Shen stared at a certain creature for a long time, he could see some faint light spots appearing on the creature's body. Whether on humans or Gene Mutation Creatures, the existence of those light spots could be seen. The only difference was the number and position.

Ordinary humans had more light spots, while Gene Mutators and Gene Mutation Creatures had fewer light spots the higher their level.

Lin Shen couldn't resist and finally experimented on the Iron Horned Beast he raised today. The result surprised him greatly. He had actually struck the acupoints of the Iron Horned Beast.

Standing beside the Iron Horned Beast, Lin Shen extended his finger again and forcefully tapped the position of the faint light spot on the Iron Horned Beast's body. The Iron Horned Beast, which had been frozen there like a statue, instantly returned to its original running state and rushed out, unable to stop, crashing into the metal fence and letting out a low cry of pain.

"Even a failed evolution seed is so terrifying. What about a successful evolution seed?" Lin Shen's excitement at this moment was beyond words. If such a seed were used to hunt Gene Mutation Creatures, it would be an invincible existence.

As if he had thought of something, Lin Shen jogged out of the animal pen, closed the door, and hurried to the warehouse. He wanted to see if there were any other Gene Mutation Eggs with seeds.

In the large warehouse, rows of shelves were filled with many Gene Mutation Eggs. Most of these Gene Mutation Eggs were low-grade goods, but this was not the point, because the Gene Mutation Egg with the seed was also a low-grade good itself. In fact, his store didn't have many high-grade Gene Mutation Eggs.

He looked through all the Gene Mutation Eggs in the warehouse, but the result was somewhat disappointing. He didn't see any Gene Mutation Eggs covered with pixels.

"That's right, when these Gene Mutation Eggs were put into storage, I personally placed them on the shelves. If there were any, I should have seen them long ago." Lin Shen shook his head, feeling that he was being too greedy. To be able to possess such a seed was already an unimaginable miracle, so how could he hope for many more?

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Lin Shen went to the shop.

The shop he opened was a claw egg shop, similar to the very popular claw machine shops of the past. Inside each claw machine, there were several Gene Mutation Eggs. By inserting coins, one could try to claw the Gene Mutation Eggs inside.

Of course, the success rate was set quite low, basically making it a sure-profit business.

"Fifth Brother, there's still no one today." The shop assistant, Zhao Li, saw Lin Shen arrive and walked out from behind the counter. She glanced at the empty shop and said with some worry, "Fifth Brother, we need to find a way to get some high-grade Gene Mutation Eggs, otherwise the business will all be snatched by the neighboring surprise egg shop."

"Okay." Lin Shen nodded slightly but didn't say much more.

He was the fifth child in his family, with three older brothers and one older sister, so Zhao Li usually called him Fifth Brother.

"That surprise egg shop next door is really too much. Their staff openly came to our shop entrance today to pull customers, even saying that the Gene Mutation Eggs in our shop are trash, and the claws are very loose, so even if you catch one, it's still trash..." Zhao Li said indignantly.

Lin Shen, however, had no mind to listen to her complaints, because his gaze was completely drawn to one of the claw machines, staring intently at that machine.

To be precise, he was drawn to a Gene Mutation Egg inside that claw machine, because he saw that strange mosaic again.

"There's actually another one?" Lin Shen was pleasantly surprised and somewhat disbelievingly walked to the front of that claw machine, staring at the Gene Mutation Egg wrapped in mosaic inside. He said somewhat urgently to Zhao Li, "Go get the key."

After Zhao Li brought the key, Lin Shen opened the claw machine, took out the mosaic Gene Mutation Egg from inside, and examined it carefully in his hand.

Although this Gene Mutation Egg was different in species and size from the previous one, the mosaic glow was quite similar.

"Fifth Brother, is there something wrong with this Gene Mutation Egg?" Zhao Li asked doubtfully.

"Don't you think this Gene Mutation Egg is different?" Lin Shen didn't answer, but asked in return.

"Is there something different? Isn't it just a Steel Grade Little Knife Demon Gene Mutation Egg?" Zhao Li looked left and right, but couldn't see anything different about this Gene Mutation Egg, and the doubt on her face deepened.

"Watch the shop carefully, I have something to do and will go back first." Lin Shen didn't say much more and left with the Gene Mutation Egg.

He was extremely puzzled, because business had been bad recently, and the Gene Mutation Eggs in the claw machines had been put in a week or even earlier. He had seen them countless times before and hadn't found such a situation. Why was there suddenly another Gene Mutation Egg with a mosaic now?

Lin Shen didn't understand why there was suddenly an extra Gene Mutation Egg with a mosaic. After returning home, he studied it for a long time but couldn't figure out how to transfer the Super Gene Evolution Seed to himself.

In fact, Lin Shen still hadn't figured out how the mosaic on the previous Gene Mutation Egg was transferred to him.

Before, he had held that Gene Mutation Egg and studied it for a long time, but couldn't figure out why there was a mosaic. Later, he was so sleepy that he fell asleep, leaving the Gene Mutation Egg beside him. When he woke up, the mosaic on the Gene Mutation Egg was gone, and the Super Gene Evolution Seed information appeared in his mind.

"It seems I can only try again. I hope it works." Lin Shen lay on the bed, placing the Gene Mutation Egg beside him. He struggled for a long time, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. He didn't know how long passed, but he finally fell asleep again.

When Lin Shen woke up the next day, his first reaction was to quickly look at the Gene Mutation Egg beside him.

Upon seeing it, Lin Shen immediately felt as if he had eaten a ginseng fruit, and all the pores on his body seemed to be cheering.

The mosaic on that Gene Mutation Egg had actually disappeared, and another Super Gene Evolution Seed information had appeared in his mind.
