168: Get together

Chen Huanhuan ran into the mountain forest, no longer caring about the rumors she had heard before, fleeing in a panic.

In the dark mountain forest, she didn't know how many times she had fallen, but fortunately, she didn't encounter any wild beasts.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Huanhuan felt her legs were almost giving out when she finally emerged from the mountain forest, tumbling down onto the road below.

Luckily, she was fortunate; the height difference wasn't great, and she only scraped her skin a little, nothing serious.

Moreover, a car was approaching in front, and seeing Chen Huanhuan's plight, it quickly stopped.

"Miss, what happened to you? Did you get hurt? Should I call an ambulance?"

A middle-aged couple got out of the car and walked up to her, asking with concern.

"I'm fine, can you take me to the city? I want to report a crime."

Chen Huanhuan struggled to her feet, pleading.

"Miss, did you encounter bad people? Come on, we're also going to the city."

After hearing Chen Huanhuan's story, the middle-aged woman, despite her husband's glance, helped her into the car.

Just like that, Chen Huanhuan successfully escaped Wutong Town...

Dayang Lake.

Su Yuan, with his numerous dependents, hunted in Dayang Lake, and countless Mutated Creatures became his food.

At this moment, Su Yuan bit off half the body of a Giant Black Carp, then swallowed it whole in another bite.

You devoured a Black Carp and gained 2000 evolution points.

Around him, countless fish, shrimp, and crabs crowded the space, and further out, a massive whirlpool was rapidly spinning.

A large python, over twenty meters long, struggled to leave, but was coiled up by one of Su Yuan's tentacles and eaten like a spicy strip.

You devoured an Asian Rock Python and gained 1880 evolution points.

There was also a large alligator, constantly biting Su Yuan's tentacle, but it couldn't break through the defense.

After Su Yuan finished the 'spicy strip,' a tentacle instantly wrapped around the large alligator.

This large alligator was over ten meters long, its body covered in scales as hard as alloy, providing extremely high defense.

But under Su Yuan's tentacles, these hard scales all cracked, and its strong body was deformed by the constriction of Su Yuan's tentacles.

Under Su Yuan's terrifying strength, the large alligator's body emitted chilling bone-cracking sounds, its bones twisted and broken by Su Yuan.

"Alligator meat is good, it's chewy."

Su Yuan coiled up the large alligator and bit off most of its body in one mouthful.

This was Su Yuan's first time eating alligator, and the taste was quite good, very chewy. In the future, if he gets bored, he can just grab a few dozen-meter-long alligators and chew on them for fun.

You devoured a Yangtze Alligator and gained 3000 evolution points.

After devouring several large Mutated Creatures, all the surrounding creatures had been gathered by the great whirlpool.

Su Yuan's thought moved, and the great whirlpool slowly dissipated, the water currents sweeping the surrounding Mutated Creatures into Su Yuan's wide-open abyss-like maw.

This also made Su Yuan's System notifications ring incessantly.

You devoured a Tilapia and gained 18 evolution points.

You devoured a Scavenger (Fish/Organism) and gained 19 evolution points.

You devoured a Bighead Carp and gained 100 evolution points.

...However, just as Su Yuan was frantically devouring.

Not far from Su Yuan, a massive figure seemed to be attracted by the abundant food here.

This large fish was about thirty meters long, entirely dark green, its whole body covered in a thick layer of scales, and its shape was elongated and cylindrical.

Its mouth was relatively thin but very long, filled with sharp teeth, exuding a sense of deterrence.

The dependents in this vicinity were mostly large fish around ten meters long. Facing this colossal figure, there was a huge size difference, yet none showed any fear; instead, they all bared their fangs.

This large fish paid no attention, and with its alligator-like mouth, it bit a ten-meter-long transformed Black Carp in one gulp, tearing it apart and devouring it, its blood staining the lake water red.

The surrounding dependents all swarmed forward, biting the large fish's body, but none could break through its defense.

The defense of this large fish was astonishingly high.

Su Yuan was still devouring with all his might, and although there was a lingering influence from the whirlpool, he still noticed the arrival of this large fish.

However, noticing the God-Devouring Fish's actions, he didn't pay it any further attention.

In a confrontation of similar size, the Black Piranha had few opponents, let alone his God-Devouring Fish.

Just as this large fish was wreaking havoc among Su Yuan's dependents.

The God-Devouring Fish burst out with astonishing speed, biting the unsuspecting large fish.

With its sharp teeth and Heaven-Defying bite force, the large fish's scales couldn't defend at all and were immediately bitten through.

The God-Devouring Fish, biting this large fish, slammed it into the lakebed with a massive crash, causing the water to explode.

The large fish resisted frantically, its mouth even began to glow, exuding a terrifying Qi, about to bite the God-Devouring Fish.

However, the God-Devouring Fish held the large fish, giving it no strength to resist, and slammed it fiercely against a giant rock on the lakebed, shattering the rock directly.

Under the God-Devouring Fish's terrifying bite force, the large fish's flesh had long been bitten through, and even its bones couldn't withstand it.

This was the terrifying bite force of the God-Devouring Fish; creatures of the same level could simply not endure it.

At the same size, even the Megalodon, which once held the record for the strongest bite force in history, was far inferior to the Black Piranha.

This was also because it was following Su Yuan's command.

Otherwise, this large fish would have already been broken into two halves.

At this moment, Su Yuan, who had already devoured all the creatures within the whirlpool, swam over. His massive forty-five-meter body, half again as large as the Alligator Gar, was filled with oppressive power.

"Another Alligator Gar."

Su Yuan looked at the Alligator Gar, which was completely suppressed by the God-Devouring Fish, recalling that he had also encountered an Alligator Gar when he first entered Dayang Lake.

Unlike Fanged Fish and piranhas, Alligator Gar is a eurythermal fish, capable of adapting to a wider range of water temperatures.

Coupled with its fierce appearance, it had appeared on television, and there were even news reports of draining a lake to catch it, earning it the title of a dangerous invasive animal.

But in reality, the Alligator Gar's temperament is not considered fierce among predatory fish.

However, the Alligator Gar's defense is probably top-tier among common freshwater fish.

"You ate a few of my dependents, so you'll make up for it yourself."

Su Yuan glanced at it and directly activated Mind Whisper and Creature Transformation.

Although he was eager to evolve, he couldn't waste such a potentially amazing dependent.

The God-Devouring Fish released the Alligator Gar, bowed respectfully to Su Yuan, and then swam to the side.

A terrifying, bizarre power swept through the Alligator Gar's body and mind, causing it to begin to distort.

Its original dark green body transformed into pitch black, its eyes became dark green, and its hard scales did not twist; instead, they became even harder.

However, something seemed to be growing on these scales. Soon, eye after eye emerged from each scale, incredibly chilling and challenging one's sanity.

Congratulations, Host, you have acquired a dependent. Please name the dependent's species.

The System's notification sounded.

"Its original name was Alligator Gar, and since it has grown so many eyes, let's call it Crocodile-Eyed Eel."

Su Yuan pondered for a few seconds and said.

Congratulations, Host, you have acquired a new dependent, Crocodile-Eyed Eel!

The newly born Crocodile-Eyed Eel swam up from the lakebed, looking at Su Yuan with reverence and fanaticism, as if facing the most worshipped True God.

Su Yuan had the Crocodile-Eyed Eel demonstrate its abilities, which consisted of three in total.

One ability was a protective shield, another enhanced bite force, and the third was the ability to project a destructive energy ray.

"Good, find a place to recover from your injuries."

Su Yuan arranged for the Crocodile-Eyed Eel to recover, while he continued to frantically hunt and devour.

This upgrade alone required a whopping three hundred thousand evolution points!

With so many evolution points needed for this upgrade, Su Yuan felt that this evolution should bring a significant improvement.

With this expectation, he frantically hunted and devoured.

With the help of many dependents, Su Yuan's devouring speed was astonishing.

However, Dayang Lake was, after all, Dayang Lake, and it did not lack powerful Mutated Creatures.

During Su Yuan's fourth wave of devouring, another large fish, a local Wels Catfish reaching over thirty meters in size, intruded.

Su Yuan naturally did not waste it; a Mutated Creature reaching thirty meters in length at this stage definitely possessed top-tier talent.

After also transforming this Wels Catfish into a dependent, Su Yuan looked at his system panel and smiled.
