The soldiers stood on tiptoe, observing the supernatural characteristics.
Sounds of sharply drawn breaths echoed through the air.
"Four! There are actually four supernatural characteristics! No wonder it was so strong, easily killing dozens of people!"
"Unfortunately, it encountered the Boss. The individual difference was too great. Even with four supernatural characteristics, it was no match for the Boss. If it hadn't hidden in the mountain cave, the Boss would have crushed it to death long ago."
"Even without the individual difference, it still wouldn't be the Boss's opponent. Don't forget, the Boss has also absorbed many supernatural characteristics."
Xia Xuebing's eyes revealed surprise. She also hadn't expected the Human-Faced Malicious Tiger to possess four supernatural characteristics inside its body, having assud there were only three or two.
Simultaneously, she clearly understood in her heart that once Li Xuan obtained this many characteristics, the day he would leave the Black Bear Survivor Base wasn't far off.
Next, she would beco the Base Leader, with no one above to suppress her, but she would also have to face crises directly.
Li Xuan selected one characteristic that was completely different from the other supernatural characteristics.
It was pitch black in color, resembling twisted tree vines, yet also like the tentacles of a deep-sea monster.
His front claw touched the ground, placing the supernatural characteristic before the Bald Soldier.
Li Xuan spoke, "This supernatural characteristic belongs to you. A prior warning: this characteristic is called Chaotic Evolution. It was the key ability of the Human-Faced Malicious Tiger. Its imnse strength was largely thanks to this characteristic."
"Among supernatural characteristics, there are distinctions of superiority and inferiority. This isn't about the difference between auxiliary and enhancent characteristics. Olfactory Enhancent and Strength Enhancent are essentially the sa level, just enhancing different aspects. People prefer Strength Enhancent, but that doesn't an Olfactory Enhancent is useless."
"Chaotic Evolution is fundantally a higher level than Strength Enhancent. However, it has certain side effects. It will cause your transformation ability to evolve randomly without direction. You will beco stronger, but you will also lose so things, such as appearance, specific traits, and so on."
The Bald Soldier's eyes lit up. "Boss, are you really giving such a good thing to ?"
Chaotic Evolution? With side effects?
It didn't matter if the transformation ability beca ugly;
becoming stronger was the main point. Anyway, he had a human form.
He didn't consider the random evolution of his transformation ability a bad thing. An ugly evolved form could sotis serve as a deterrent!
"I promised you, so naturally I'll give it to you," Li Xuan said.
He didn't need Chaotic Evolution. There were many ways to beco stronger in the future. Chaotic evolution might prevent him from obtaining certain future opportunities, potentially reducing the Giant Beast's potential.
The sa applied to Yun Xiuzhi. She would transform into an empress in the third version. Chaotic Evolution might beco a flaw for her, preventing her from controlling the Brain Snatcher Strange Being in the third version, leading to a tragic death and failed tamorphosis.
As for Huo Lingling, the reasoning was similar. She was destined to awaken the strongest auxiliary supernatural ability in the second version. If she evolved chaotically and her ability changed accordingly, what then?
The excited Bald Soldier reached out, cupping the Chaotic Evolution supernatural characteristic. He imdiately transford into a large rooster and began absorbing the characteristic.
Li Xuan picked up the Body Expansion characteristic and the Claw and Fang Enhancent characteristic, swallowing them in one gulp and beginning absorption.
Strange sounds emanated from within the Giant Beast's body.
It was the sound of the Giant Beast's muscles growing, its bones lengthening.
The Giant Beast's body expanded at a visible rate, like a balloon being inflated. In a short ti, it grew to forty ters tall. This expansion wasn't just limited to its body;
the wings on its back also grew larger.
The Giant Beast's claws and teeth underwent a strange transformation, becoming darker, sharper, like finely forged steel blades crafted by the world's most outstanding swordsmith.
Roar!
The Giant Beast roared towards the sky, feeling a continuous surge of power erging from within its body.
As its body grew larger, its strength naturally increased accordingly. Perhaps the Body Expansion characteristic had higher compatibility with the Giant Beast. The expansion characteristic perfectly utilized the Giant Beast's advantages. This increase in strength was even greater than when the Giant Beast had absorbed the Strength Enhancent characteristic!
The explosively increased strength gave the Giant Beast the illusion that it could easily smash a mountain apart.
Finally, the Giant Beast's size stabilized at forty-five ters. Its claws were pitch black. When its massive jaws opened, three layers of sharp teeth were tightly arranged inside. The wings on its back spread out, reaching a full fifty ters in length. It now closely resembled a monster from Ultraman.
Yun Xiuzhi, holding the Little White Snake, landed and said to Li Xuan, "How does it feel?"
"Excellent! The Body Expansion characteristic suits too well! It's just a sha that absorbing the Claw and Fang characteristic again only provided half the effect of the first ti. Absorbing the sa supernatural characteristic repeatedly causes the effect to diminish continuously. The next ti I absorb a Claw and Fang Enhancent characteristic, the effect will only be a quarter of the first ti," Li Xuan explained.
"That's normal. Even dicine can lead to resistance. Sothing like supernatural characteristics definitely can't be stacked limitlessly without waste. Any improvent is good," Yun Xiuzhi said.
Li Xuan raised his front claw, allowing Yun Xiuzhi to place the Little White Snake on it. "Revert to human form and absorb this Strength characteristic."
Huo Lingling pointed at herself. "? You absorb it. The Strength characteristic is very compatible with you."
"I said I would find a supernatural characteristic for you. I've already absorbed a Strength supernatural characteristic. Absorbing it again would have diminished effect. Furthermore, unlike the Fusion characteristic, Strength characteristics are relatively easy to find. You absorb this first to improve your self-preservation ability," Li Xuan said.
Originally, after dealing with the Zombie Horde, he had planned to leave the Black Bear Base. It was the appearance of the North River Zombie King that made him change his mind and stay a while longer.
Now that the North River Zombie King was dead, he had no reason to remain at the Black Bear Base. It was ti to leave. If he didn't go soon, he would miss the Venomous Spiked Monster coming ashore event half a month later.
The Venomous Spiked Monster also possessed four supernatural characteristics, not weaker than the Human-Faced Malicious Tiger. Moreover, among its four characteristics, two were ones he didn't currently possess. Additionally, it had the Size Expansion characteristic, which had extrely high compatibility with him. Even with diminished effects, he could still grow to at least fifty ters tall!
Furthermore, after Huo Lingling absorbed the Strength characteristic, her combat ability would greatly increase, giving her sufficient capability for self-preservation. If they encountered enemies like the zombie infant monkey again, she could also assist him.
Huo Lingling uttered an "Oh," picked up the Strength Enhancent characteristic, and began absorbing it.
The soldiers on the ground were utterly bewildered. What was happening?
Was Huo Lingling absorbing a supernatural characteristic?
The fact that Li Xuan was willing to give a supernatural characteristic to Huo Lingling was already surprising enough to them.
Now, witnessing Huo Lingling directly absorbing the supernatural characteristic in human form left them completely stunned.
Humans cannot absorb supernatural characteristics;
only transford beings can. So, was Huo Lingling not human?
Was her true form the Little White Snake?
After a snake transford into a human, it actually possessed human-level intelligence?
Even if so people already knew animals could transform into humans, seeing it with their own eyes was still incredibly shocking.
Xia Xuebing's mouth twitched. "A strange group. Yun Xiuzhi probably isn't human either, right?"
She wasn't the only one thinking this!
Nurous peculiar gazes turned towards Yun Xiuzhi.
The Bald Soldier had already finished absorbing the characteristic but felt no change in his body. "Boss, how do I activate the Chaotic Evolution characteristic?"
"Maintain your transford state for a long ti, and evolution will occur naturally," Li Xuan said.
