Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Considering even a body with a Mutated Crystal Base can hardly withstand it, and he\'s only Alloy, if something were to go wrong, wouldn\'t it mean certain death? Not to mention that even if it doesn\'t kill, damaging the kidneys is also bad.

Eventually, Lin Shen gave up on the idea of trying. After all, there were enough Base Mutation Fluid from Tian Xin and the Mutant Eggs, combined with the Soul Collector\'s Base Mutation Fluid for Lin Shen to digest for quite a few days.

He shouldn\'t need to worry about Base Mutation Fluid for at least the next half a month, but he couldn\'t just sit and consume resources without replenishing them, so Lin Shen decided to continue searching for mutated creatures.

Considering how eerie this river was, and the fisherman saying the forest across was even more peculiar, he dared not venture there again.

Choosing a different direction, Lin Shen planned to explore other areas.

...

Inferno Star.

A massive planet covered in metallic mechanical structures looked from afar to be a space base disguised as a sphere.

Three orbiting rings revolved around the planet\'s exterior, and various vehicles, similar to cars, shuttled through the air.

Inside a luxurious meeting hall, seated in the main chair was a Minotaur dressed in golden high-tech battle armor.

He and the Minotaurs clad in purple battle armor on both sides watched the holographic projection in front of them.

The projection showed Ultra-Burn Warriors battling humans in different locations, with the primary footage being the battle at Sky Star Slope, all captured by Ultra-Burn Warriors themselves.

Once the footage of Sky Star Slope concluded, a Minotaur in purple battle armor on the left of the gold-armored Minotaur started to speak, "General Bael, the human combat strength on Realm King Planet has exceeded our expectations. We should send more warriors to eradicate all humans on Realm King Planet and claim all of its resources."

Before General Bael could respond, the Minotaur seated on his right countered, "The teleporter we discovered can only teleport Base Variant Creatures to Realm King Planet. The 107 Pioneer Corps has suffered heavy losses, and the Elite Warrior O\'Gude has fallen in battle.

Not to mention that all other Pioneer Corps are currently deployed to other planets and we are temporarily unable to recruit new Pioneer Warriors; even if we could dispatch a Corps there, they likely won\'t match the human Mutators. Unless we send Elite Warriors, may I ask who among you is willing to let their subordinate Elite Warriors pioneer Realm King Planet?"

Upon hearing this, the previously impassioned Minotaur Generals fell silent.

They were all aware of the situation on Realm King Planet. Although the humans were relatively weaker and most human Mutators were on the lower end of power, some humans had already reached the elite standard of the Ultra-Burn Tribe at their level.

If they did not send Elite Warriors to Realm King Planet, more cannon fodder would ultimately struggle to truly take the initiative.

Besides, cannon fodder isn\'t conjured out of thin air. There aren\'t enough reinforcements to keep sending to Realm King Planet, and the Ultra-Burn Tribe needs to claim resources on more than just one planet.

It was not possible to redirect the Pioneer Corps engaged on other planets just for the sake of Realm King Planet.

But if they were to send Elite Warriors with a Base Mutation rank to Realm King Planet, they feared that their elites might encounter unexpected incidents.

After all, those Elite Warriors were future senior officers of the Ultra-Burn Tribe, and many were noble descendants with prestigious bloodlines, destined to become pillars of society; their lives shouldn\'t be risked carelessly.

"How can such an abundant source of Base Mutation resources on Realm King Planet be conceded to humans?" the Minotaur on the left of the General frowned.

"If that\'s the case, then please, General Auston, send your subordinates\' Elite Warriors to Realm King Planet, to clear out those oblivious humans," sneered the Ultra-Burn Tribe General Jerry on the right.

Auston also sneered, "If all the resources of Realm King Planet will be mine after we conquer it, then I have no objections."

"Auston, you\'re being too selfish. With so many Base Mutation resources on Realm King Planet, we could train numerous Base Mutation elite warriors. Those resources should be used for the benefit of our empire, not become privately owned," Jerry said, his tone neither harsh nor soft.

"Listen to Jerry, does that even make sense? Our people shed blood and risk their lives to climb up, and then we should just share the benefits with everyone? Is that fair?" General Auston said angrily, slapping the table.

"Enough, stop arguing," General Bael said calmly, silencing everyone.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, General Bael\'s gaze swept the room before settling on a dozing purple-armored Minotaur at the very end.

"Karo, what do you think?" General Bael asked, looking at him.

The drowsy Minotaur seemed startled awake, stood up in confusion, then quickly put on a smile and said, "General Bael is right."

This caused an uproar of laughter among the many Minotaurs, but General Bael stared coldly at Karo and said, "Since you think I\'m right, then go prepare. When the teleporter activates next time, send Qing Jia to Realm King Planet."

"But General Bael, Qing Jia, he..." Karo immediately became anxious with no more confusion.

"Karo, you said yourself that the general is right. Are you trying to back out now? Know that there is no jest in the military," Jerry immediately interrupted.

"General Bael is wise. Qing Jia is a once-in-a-century talent of our Ultra-Burn Tribe, an unrivaled existence at the Base Mutation level. Even compared with the young talents of the great families, he is in no way inferior. Those mere human Mutators can be killed with ease.

He will surely be able to annihilate the human Base Mutators easily and seize control of Realm King Planet..." Auston added in agreement.

"General..." Karo tried to say something more, but General Bael interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"If Qing Jia goes to Realm King Planet and succeeds, he will enter the Bloodline Sequence and be awarded a third-class Noble Bloodline Badge," General Bael said indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Karo\'s eyes suddenly lit up.

"General..." Jerry, Auston, and the others became anxious and started to rise to object.

"If you have objections, send your own Elite Warriors instead. The reward will be the same," General Bael said, glancing at them.

Jerry and Auston, who hadn\'t fully stood up, quickly sat down again. Obviously, they wouldn\'t let their own Elite Warriors go to such a dangerous place; being from noble families already in the Bloodline Sequence, such a reward meant nothing to their youths.

With no one opposing, Karo hesitated for a long time but eventually had to accept the order.

When Karo returned to his barracks, he went to the training field and saw a tall Minotaur with blue horns training within a gravity machine.

Ordinary Minotaurs would find it challenging to move in a gravity machine, yet this Minotaur moved with ease and was even doing weighted training. The massive barbell seemed like an inflatable toy in his hands as he swung it around effortlessly.

Karo sighed inwardly, "If it weren\'t for his poor background, Qing Jia should have been the most worthy of cultivation in our Ultra-Burn Tribe. What a pity."

When Qing Jia finished his training and came out, Karo called him over.

"Qing Jia, General Bael has personally assigned you a mission to pioneer a planet. If you can complete the task, you will be admitted to the Bloodline Sequence and given a third-class Noble Bloodline Badge," he said.

Qing Jia\'s eyes sparkled slightly, "Don\'t worry, General, I will definitely complete the mission."

"Look at this first," Karo said as he took Qing Jia into his office and played several clips of combat footage featuring Ouyang Yudu, Bai Shenfei, Wei Wufu, Jiweis, Tian, and Mo Shengqi, among others.

"Your main task is to take out these humans. I\'m not worried about your strength. One-on-one, there should be no match for you, but humans are quite cunning. If they gang up on you... you may choose to strategically retreat..." Karo\'s last words caused Qing Jia to hesitate slightly.

Qing Jia saluted Karo solemnly, "General, I was nothing more than Steel Level at birth, and I owe my progress to my family\'s unwavering support and your cultivation under great pressure. This time, no matter what, I will complete the mission and enter the Bloodline Sequence. I will lift my family\'s descendants from the fate of cannon fodder and prove you haven\'t misjudged me."
