57: Devouring Giant Salamander

The Young Man and his group carried the beautiful secretary and ran for half an hour before stopping, panting, and collapsing on the ground, not wanting to move.

"Holy crap! Surviving a great disaster means future blessings! We are all blessed people!"

The Young Man had forgotten he was live streaming. After resting for a long time and drinking a large bottle of water, he said.

"Brother Niu is right. We managed to escape. Once we brothers are prepared, we'll go back and kill that fish!"

Several burly men nodded repeatedly, a mysterious confidence reappearing on their faces.

"What you guys said is right. This time, we weren't prepared, and that fish didn't play fair. We were already on the shore, and it still attacked us on land."

While the group was chatting and bragging, the Young Man suddenly remembered his phone was still live streaming. He picked it up and saw a screen full of messages telling him to go back, explaining what had happened earlier.

"What? That Strange fish was dealt with by a Giant Python? And they want me to go back and check it out?"

"Family, the Streamer treats you like family. Is this how you trick the Streamer? I'm not stupid. I have a university degree and I've read books."

The Young Man's face changed as he read, and he repeatedly refused.

Are you kidding? A fish that ferocious, dealt with by a Giant Python? A Giant Python would just be a spicy snack to it!

Even now, recalling the Strange fish's blood-red eyes made him shiver. Being looked at by those eyes made him feel like his life was no longer his own.

"Family, brothers and sisters, the Streamer promises you that once I am fully prepared, I will definitely explore this demonic pool again! At that time, I will surely capture the demonic fish! Those who haven't followed can click follow..."

Facing an unprecedented number of viewers and fans, the Young Man repeatedly tried to appease them, postponing any talk of going back until later. After speaking for a long time, he finally ended the stream.

"Brother Niu, do we really have to explore this demonic pool again?"

The burly men asked nervously. They had just been bragging earlier, so he shouldn't take it seriously!

"Am I stupid?! This time we survived a great disaster. If we go back, it'd be like an old man drinking arsenic – just asking for death!"

The Young Man rolled his eyes. The next second, he dialed a number: "Hello, is this the Wildlife and Plant Administration Bureau? This is..."

After making the call, the Young Man relaxed and said, "See? After the officials clear it out, I'll go back to streaming. For now, I'm going home! I need a day off! I almost lost my life there today!"

"Brother Niu, brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"

...Su Yuan's actions plunged the entire deep pool into panic.

Suddenly, a fifteen-meter-long behemoth appeared here and instantly killed the overlord of the place.

After Su Yuan finished eating the Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish, his gaze turned to the Giant Tiger on the shore.

At this moment, the Giant Tiger was covered in wounds, severely injured, but its consciousness was still clear, and it was vigilantly watching the pool water.

"Forget it. Considering you are a feline unique to Asia and haven't actively attacked humans, I'll let you go this time."

Su Yuan shifted his gaze.

Most people in Rabbit Country prefer tigers over lions due to a sense of collective honor.

Su Yuan naturally also had this inclination.

Coupled with the fact that the tiger hadn't attacked the group of Streamers who were asking for trouble, Su Yuan felt a touch more goodwill towards it.

Although Su Yuan was no longer human, he was once human. If he saw humans being brutally killed by other creatures, the emotional fluctuations in his heart were inevitable.

At least, for him, who had only recently transformed into an octopus, this was the case.

As for the future, that remained to be seen.

The Giant Tiger slowly got up and staggered away.

Su Yuan watched it leave silently. With the recovery ability of Mutated Creatures, this tiger wouldn't die.

However, whether other Mutated Creatures would give the tiger a chance to recover was another matter.

"Alright, I should have gathered enough evolution points by devouring the tiger. Now that I've let the tiger go, I'll have to get evolution points from other places..."

Su Yuan looked malevolently at the surrounding creatures. The next moment, eight tentacles, like blooming flowers, swept through the waters in all directions!

Whether it was Sunfish, Thunder Dragon Fish, or Mandarin Fish, even Grass Carp, Bighead Carp, etc., Su Yuan spared none.

"You devoured a Sunfish and gained 12 evolution points."

"You devoured a Mandarin Fish and gained 6 evolution points."

"You devoured a Snakehead Fish and gained 5 evolution points."

"You devoured a Grass Carp and gained 10.2 evolution points."

...He was already impatient. He wanted to evolve a few more times, then return to Dayang Lake to deal with the threat of the Mysterious Organization, expose them, and kill them!

His previous near-death predicament was, arguably, entirely caused by the Mysterious Organization!

If he didn't avenge this, he would be unworthy of being a human!

After Su Yuan devoured eight fish, he saw a plump Large Carp. Immediately, a tentacle reached out, grabbed it, pulled it back, and swallowed it whole.

"You devoured a Silver Carp and gained 10 evolution points."

Suddenly, Su Yuan saw a large fish falling down the waterfall.

He watched with interest.

This was an amphibian, entirely gray-black, about three meters long, resembling a salamander or a Giant Salamander. Su Yuan couldn't distinguish the specifics, as he hadn't paid attention to them before.

After this amphibian fell into the deep pool, it was still quite fierce. It suddenly rushed towards a Large Carp over two meters long and bit its belly.

Its two large Claws frantically clawed at the Large Carp's body, tearing open gruesome wounds.

"Little brother, you don't even look to see whose territory this is, and you're already acting presumptuously!"

A murderous intent flashed in Su Yuan's heart; the octopus's territorial instinct had more or less affected him.

A tentacle silently extended. As it drew near, it suddenly burst into extreme speed, instantly coiling around both the Large Carp and the unknown amphibian.

The amphibian immediately struggled wildly, its sharp Claws scratching at Su Yuan's tentacle. Although they dug in, they didn't break it.

"Seeking death!"

Su Yuan sneered. His grotesque Claws shot out, instantly piercing into the amphibian's body, rotating and cutting, dicing it into a thousand pieces.

The next moment, Su Yuan's large beak opened, and he bit off most of the amphibian and the Large Carp's bodies, spraying bright red blood.

"The taste is alright."

Su Yuan commented, then swallowed the remaining scraps.

"You devoured a Carp and gained 40 evolution points."

"You devoured a Giant Salamander and gained 86 evolution points."

"evolution points: 4020.3 / 4000" (Devouring spiritual energy in progress) (Evolvable)

"I didn't expect it to be a Giant Salamander. But, I can evolve now! I hope a skill appears this time!"

Su Yuan muttered to himself, then dove to the bottom of the pool. His terrifying size immediately cleared the surroundings; no creatures remained nearby.

"Evolve!"

As per Su Yuan's will, a great power descended, enveloping his entire body... Dayang Mountain Bureau of Flora and Fauna Administration.

After Professor Jin Weiguo received the news, he and several tiger and python scholars reviewed the live stream video.

"Unexpectedly, the unrest a few days ago led to an extraordinary Mutated Creatures tiger. I see its injuries are severe, so it's imperative to bring it back for treatment as soon as possible. At the same time, we can study the mysteries of global biological mutation and extraordinary abilities."

A scholar who studied tigers said.

"This thing doesn't look like a Giant Python. Look at its diameter; it shows a gradual thinning trend. The body of any snake, python, or boa is not like that."

A snake scholar also said.

"Send people over. Bring weapons and be careful. That Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish is probably in dire straits, but this unknown creature is even more dangerous. Tell everyone to be cautious."

After discussions, the group made a decision.
