Chapter 623: Poison seeking in the wilderness (17)
Translator: 549690339
Gallas were creatures that only existed in comics.
According to the setting of the comic, the level of Galacticus was: [Capture Level 5]
(Capture Level 1 is defined as a wild beast that can only be captured by ten professional hunters with shotguns.)
This was the position IGO (the fictional organization in “captives of food”) gave it. Of course, individual strength would also affect the level of the captured crocodile. There would naturally be a few levels of difference between a young Gala crocodile and a crocodile that had lived for more than a hundred years.
Galas were located in the Baron islands, a dangerous area where about 200000 species of creatures lived. They were at the peak of the local ecosystem.!!
It had a huge body like a hippopopotamus, a back as hard as a washboard, eight short legs, an ugly and fierce flat face, and a pair of cute eyes.
It had hard scales, tough teeth, sharp claws, and a bite that weighed more than three tons … The most troublesome thing was that there were a large number of “Baron leeches” in its mouth. The wounds caused by these blood-sucking leeches were extremely difficult to heal, and they would bleed for a long time.
In summary, it was an animal that ordinary people could not defeat.
However, a man had chosen to launch a surprise attack on a stormy night …
…………
At 7:47 pm, there were still 15 minutes left before the time limit for Kevin’s summoning.
By then, under Kevin’s lead, Feng bujue had already reached the depths of the swamp on kanabis Island.
“This is bad … The water level has risen a lot since evening …” Brother Jue, who was following behind Kevin, wiped the water off his face and mumbled,”this is not good … Even if a level 30 player really came (this is brother Jue’s current assessment of Kevin’s strength), it would be difficult for him to fight the Galaxia crocodile in waist-deep water …”
However, even though he knew that the situation was grim, brother Jue could only brace himself. The reason was … The time limit for Kevin’s summoning.
Perhaps the person who designed [Bell’s daily knife] wanted to use this setting to ridicule the broadcast time and cycle of a certain show …
In any case, the setting of ‘cooldown time: one week, existence Time: 45 minutes’ basically declared that Kevin could only be summoned once in a scenario.
Unless some extreme situation happened, such as the player obtaining something that could greatly reduce the cooldown time of the equipment’s special effects, Kevin would not appear twice in the same scenario.
Therefore, Feng bujue, who had already summoned Kevin, was caught in a dilemma.
It would be a great waste if he did not use this summoned creature, whose combat power was far beyond that of ordinary people. But if he wanted to use it … There seemed to be only one thing that was most suitable for him to do, hunt Gallas, and kill them.
Therefore, brother Jue gave the order to lead the way. Braving the rain, he entered the swamp with Kevin.
After all, Feng bujue had already made up his mind. When the time came … He would just watch from afar and let Kevin fight the galactical alone. It’s best if you can win, as you can complete the side quest and the challenge together. If he couldn’t defeat it … He would simply give up the side mission and wait until the rain stopped to kill an ordinary little crocodile. He could still complete the challenge.
“There’s something up ahead. ” After walking for another five minutes or so, Kevin suddenly stopped and said something.
Just then, a flash of lightning appeared in the sky.
In an instant, the swamp was illuminated as if it was daytime.
Feng bujue took advantage of the light and quickly stretched his neck to look over Kevin’s shoulder. Although the tears on his eyelashes and eyelids made his eyes sore, he could still see the giant figure more than 20 meters away.
“This is like a F * cking dinosaur …” Feng bujue raised his hand to wipe his face. (To prevent the gun from getting wet, he kept the gun in the plastic bag that contained cannabis, so he was currently holding the shovel with one hand.) He cursed under his breath,”I thought the production team forbade the appearance of dead people … Why did they place such a deadly animal on the island?”
He had asked a good question. Why?
In fact, the reason was very simple, because…This animal did not pose much of a threat to humans.
Upon seeing this, some people would definitely find it strange. How was this possible?
This was a long story …
…………
First, he had to explain the basic settings of this scenario.
In reality, Feng bujue had been to this universe before. This place … Was the universe of the Earth’s wastelands.
This time,”poison seeking in the wilderness” happened in 2460, five years after the “village of heavenly blessing” incident on “old earth.”
The humans in this universe had already taken the first step toward space colonization at the end of the twenty-second century. After so many years, they had naturally found many celestial bodies that were similar to earth. For example, Feng bujue was currently on a planet called ‘fourth earth’.
Because the level of technology was already very high, and the resources were relatively abundant, war had disappeared from the human world. Therefore, on a certain day in the 24th century, a group of bored scientists (who might have been manufacturing firearms in the past) started a “biological rescue plan” and began to study the genes of various endangered, extinct, and ancient creatures …
After decades of hard work, this group of people had succeeded …
The zebra-like and Florida Black Wolves that had previously appeared on the island were two extinct animals that had been “resurrected” by relying on genetic technology. Creatures like this … Were not rare in this universe. They could be seen everywhere in the wilderness, and their existence was like that of a dog … Sometimes, in order to control the number, the local government even encouraged hunting …
Later on … After the “biological rescue plan”, a strange project called “biological improvement plan” was added to the schedule of those idlers.
Another few decades passed, and another Nobel Prize winner was born. This project was also a success …
Since then, many strange creatures had appeared in the wilderness (most of which were islands) where few people visited, such as Garat crocodiles, balon Tigers, straw snakes, land sharks … All kinds of strange things had appeared. “This is a test of the existing ecosystem,” the scientists said.”Please do not worry.”
All in all … For these 25th century humans, as long as they wanted … They could make Vajra.
In the end, they returned to the original question. Why weren’t these animals fatal?
That was because … All the creatures born through the “biological improvement plan” had been implanted with a “special gene”, and the only function of this gene was to make them lose their advantage when fighting against humans.
For example … Mosquitoes. If the humans in this universe wanted to exterminate mosquitoes, they could tamper with the genes of the mosquitoes and turn them into animals that “would be poisoned to death once they touched human blood.”
By the same logic, the products of the biological improvement plan would carry similar genes from the day they were born. For them, human pheromones, body odor, blood, skin and flesh … Were all things that they were afraid of. When they encountered humans, they would instinctively run away. Even if they tried to resist, they would be quickly poisoned to death …
Do you still remember the conversation between still deaf and Bell?
“Alright, alright … I know. We picked the venue together, remember? I’ve seen the list of animals there … And, to be honest, I don’t really care … Aardwolves, Black Wolves … They don’t make much of a difference to me. ”
From our point of view, their attitude back then might have been a little cold, but in that universe, most people had this kind of “ignorant and indifferent” attitude towards animals. This was because animals had become something like “clothes”, which could be mass-produced and adjusted at will. There were no longer ‘endangered’ or ‘extinct’, only ‘overpopulation’.
Now, I’ll say something off-topic …
Thankfully, Feng bujue had no idea how advanced the technology in this universe had become. The scenario he was in happened to be in the wilderness. The most high-tech product he had seen so far … Was the floating camera next to toads. If brother Jue found out … That there were handheld railguns, ants (a type of nanobot technology from this universe), anti-gravity mech, and other high-tech products on this planet, the consequences would be unimaginable … When that time came, would he care about the competition? He had to directly attack the pufferfish, take the hostages, and contact the local government to send him some arms. That was the right way …
…………
So, after understanding the background, let’s go back to the story …
“Kevin, go over there and kill it.” When Feng bujue saw the giant shadow, he completely gave up on the idea of going forward. A few minutes ago, he had indeed thought of “if possible, I should help Kevin appropriately,” but now … That thought had vanished.
“Alright,” he said. A second later, Kevin responded in a very normal tone and then strode forward.
Feng bujue, on the other hand, stayed where he was to provide spiritual support.
Kevin was indeed a summoned creature that came with legendary equipment. In this swamp that was more than a meter deep, he carried a camera (although it had been damaged by bullets, Kevin still insisted on carrying it) and continued to stride forward. To him, the storm was like a gentle breeze and a loli spitting water. His tall body was like an iron tower, unaffected by the wind and rain.
Roar!
Suddenly, a thunderous roar came from the front.
The roar seemed to have substance, tearing through the thick air and penetrating the deep darkness.
This was the king of the marshlands, giving his final warning to the ‘enemy’ that was approaching him.
Unfortunately … Kevin would not care. The orders he had received were clear, and there was no possibility of retreat … ”
