500: Chapter 381: Great Gene Fusion 500: Chapter 381: Great Gene Fusion But when he turned his head to look at Zhang Xiaoman, he was slightly startled.
He saw that the latter was completely different from the rest.
As he walked through the desert, he seed not to be affected by the sandy terrain at all.
His steps were as if he were walking on flat ground, appearing extrely relaxed.
Jannan even noticed that there were no footprints left behind him.
Weiss and others also witnessed this scene, but they all assud it was a special technique possessed by this Transcendent, and did not ask any further questions.
Indeed, the situation was just as they had guessed, the reason Zhang Xiaoman left no footprints was because he had cast a Floating Curse on himself.
In a place unseen by the others, beneath the long robe, Zhang Xiaoman’s feet were actually slightly above the ground; he did not touch the sandy terrain, but floated through the air.
The Floating Curse was sowhat different from what he had initially imagined; although it couldn’t be used for flying, it only allowed hovering close to the ground.
Yet, it could also be slightly controlled, just like now.
Zhang Xiaoman adjusted his height by manipulating the flow of Dark Energy to bring himself closer to the ground.
Then, as if stepping on a wall of air, he walked to accelerate the speed of the Floating Curse, creating the appearance similar to the Lightweight Skill known as Heroic Leap.
He had also tried other thods, such as combining the Floating Curse with Dark Energy Shocks to increase the speed of his dash.
Similarly, by applying the Floating Curse while falling, he could slow his descent to prevent injuries.
Of course, for him, who possessed the Heroic Leap, this move wasn’t of much significance.
However, it could effectively help other team mbers without this Skill to avoid the risk of falling from great heights.
After walking for a few minutes, they once again arrived at the small house where Jannan lived; Zhang Xiaoman surveyed the surroundings but did not find any Star Alliance Marker.
“Take to see those two monster corpses; I want to know what this mutated creature you spoke of looks like.”
Zhang Xiaoman first stopped his search and then followed Hu Peng to the spot where they had found the monsters.
First was the massive wolf corpse, followed by the giant snake by the lake covered in black scales.
“Hmm…
indeed, there are no Dark Energy fluctuations present; how long have they been dead?”
Zhang Xiaoman’s eyes shimred with a silvery glow as he had activated the Spirit Detection Technique, but he didn’t detect any Dark Energy fluctuations from the monster corpses in front of him.
“They died about an hour ago, the wolf a bit longer, it’s been a couple of days.”
Hu Peng replied.
Zhang Xiaoman pondered for a mont and then personally used the Eye of the Starry Sky to test again, but the result was the sa as Hu Peng’s; the black imprint in his hand showed no light.
“Star Lord, actually, I feel that this creature rather resembles those from Water Blue Star, as if so mutation has occurred…”
Xun You hesitated for a mont and then spoke sowhat uncertainly.
“Hmm, it indeed seems like a possibility, but I’d like to hear your reasoning.”
Zhang Xiaoman nodded, signaling the other party to continue.
“Actually, ever since that giant wolf, I’ve had my suspicions, but it wasn’t until I saw this snake that I beca more certain of that idea.”
Xun You approached the giant snake, looked at its corpse, and shared his earlier discoveries:
“First off, their basic biological traits all align with the animals from our Water Blue Star, which is quite different from those alien species.”
“Moreover, I noticed that these two monsters share so common features; they seem to possess many characteristics of other creatures we are familiar with…
For example, that wolf, it has the basic form of an Ero Wolf, but also the paws of felines, the webbing of frogs, the nictitating mbrane of crocodiles…”
“The sa goes for this giant snake.
This type of scale armor clearly shouldn’t appear in snakes.
Structurally, it looks more like the scales of a pangolin.
Plus, its body’s flexibility is extraordinary, just like a mongoose’s, able to perform various complex biting moves back and forth…”
Xun You crouched down and touched the head of the giant snake, saying, “The nose and eyes also exceed the basic form of snakes, I feel…
this creature is like a monster that was created through fusion…”
Next to him, Hu Peng couldn’t help but take a sharp breath and said, “Do you an that these creatures are not just regular mutations, but artificially created?”
Xun You looked at him and nodded earnestly.
“I think so.
I feel that even if the creatures of Water Blue Star mutated due to contact with so substances, they absolutely wouldn’t result in such a mishmash of features.”
“Even if one were to use predatory evolution to explain it, it still doesn’t make sense, considering that this is Ero.
So of the genes exhibited in their bodies are from animals that don’t even exist here.
The two locations are at least 5000 kiloters apart.
I don’t believe this snake could travel such great distances to feed…”
The more Xun You spoke, the brighter his expression beca, having organized his thoughts, he also realized that his guesses were very likely true.
“So, there’s only one truth to this matter!
These creatures were artificially created!”
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoman also was inwardly startled.
He had not considered so much before, but now, upon hearing Xun You’s analysis, he suddenly found the situation seed more challenging than he had imagined.
If it were just animals mutating, the reasons would typically be few, with the greatest likelihood being related to the Great Fusion.
He had initially guessed that the fusion of the cosmos brought so peculiar substances to this planet, which caused the mutations in the animals of Water Blue Star, akin to nuclear radiation.
However, if the mutations in the monsters were artificial, the whole matter would be extrely complicated, especially since he had no idea about the origins of whoever could create such monsters.
Were they humans from Water Blue Star?
Or creatures from another dinsion?
Or perhaps so other possibility.
These, after all, posed a much greater threat than re biological mutation.
Zhang Xiaoman looked intently at the giant snake, contemplating his next steps.
anwhile, mbers of the Wildfire Team stood a bit dejectedly to the side, blankly watching the exchange, unable to understand the Chinese they were speaking.
They could understand the mysterious newcor through a very peculiar thod.
But this ti, as Xun You was responsible for the analysis, his words contained none of that special power, leaving the mbers of the Wildfire Team with no choice but to watch anxiously.
Jannan, who understood Chinese, also realized the critical points after hearing Xun You’s words, his expression gradually growing more solemn.
