Chapter 74: Chapter 74 Mutated Crystal Base (Second update, please subscribe)

In a moment, the two Crystal Base pets had slain seven or eight Base Variant Creatures, causing the others, who no longer dared to besiege them, to turn tail and flee towards the sea.

The Red Jade Lion and the Gold Crystal Horned Cow pursued and killed several more Base Variant Creatures, and the rest escaped back into the ocean.

“Clean up the battlefield,” Lin Shen said as he took out a water pouch to collect the Base Mutation Fluid from the bodies of the Base Variant Creatures.

Alloy Level Base Mutation Fluid was still worth some money.

For Lin Shen, who was now penniless, this Base Mutation Fluid was a considerable fortune.

Xu Tiange and Lu Qing were somewhat taken aback, as they hadn’t brought anything to collect Base Mutation Fluid when they set out.

They had only planned to look for the Base Mutation Box; who could have expected to end up in such a place, totally unprepared?

Their subordinates had such items on them, but they were not around at the moment.

Seeing their expressions, Lin Shen knew for sure they hadn’t brought anything, so he took out a roll of portable plastic water bags from his backpack and gave each of them two, telling them to collect the Base Mutation Fluid themselves.

They needed to spend three days in this place, and they would need food and drink, which Lin Shen would later have to share with them. He didn’t want to work only to provide for them.

“Lin Shen really came prepared; it seems he knew beforehand that the Realm King Cultivation Device would send us to this bizarre planet, which is why he brought so many water bags,” Xu Tiange thought, preoccupied with the idea that Lin Shen had been ready all along.

Lin Shen did not ask Wei Wufu to collect the Base Mutation Fluid but tasked him with keeping watch by the shore. In case the Base Variant Creatures made a comeback, he could sound an alarm immediately.

While collecting the Base Mutation Fluid, a surprised cry came from Lu Qing, “There’s a Base Mutation Egg!”

Lin Shen and Xu Tiange quickly made their way over, only to see that within the torn chestplate of a Base Variant Creature, killed by the Red Jade Lion, there lay a golden Base Mutation Egg.

“Check the other Base Variant Creatures to see if there are any eggs inside their chests,” Lin Shen said as he walked over to the body of another Base Variant Creature, which unfortunately had its chest intact, making it impossible to see if there were any eggs inside.

“I’ll help you open it,” Lu Qing volunteered, commanding the Red Jade Lion to come and tear open the chestplate of the creature.

Unfortunately, there were no Base Mutation Eggs inside.

“I’ve found one too,” Xu Tiange called from nearby, his luck serving him well as he too had discovered a Base Mutation Egg.

The three of them turned over all the bodies, finding a total of three Base Mutation Eggs.

Xu Tiange found one, Lu Qing found two, and Lin Shen didn’t find any. Lu Qing offered one to Lin Shen, but Lin Shen refused it.

“The Base Variant Creatures in this place have a high chance of carrying Base Mutation Eggs. Should we go hunt some more Base Variant Creatures?” Lu Qing suggested, no longer as tense as he was at the beginning, contemplating the viability of a hunt.

“Shen, with our strength as a group of four, we should be fine against Crystal-based Creatures, as long as there aren’t too many,” Xu Tiange added.

The rate of Base Mutation Egg production here surprised him; back home, finding Base Mutation Eggs was not so easy.

Only a few Base Variant Creatures would carry Base Mutation Eggs, and normally, after conceiving an egg, they would find a concealed nest to await the laying of the egg and would scarcely come out again, making them hard to find.

The people watching the battle thought that this four-person team should go out and hunt Base Variant Creatures instead of hiding away as they had earlier.

Among all the temporary teams, this four-member team, with three at the Alloy Level and two possessing Crystal Base pets, had the strength to rank among the top three.

The other two teams, whose strength was not inferior to theirs, were already hunting Base Variant Creatures all over, with quite successful gains, unlike their own surreptitious approach.

After much consideration, they could only attribute the reason to Lin Shen.

It was commonly believed that Lin Shen, the playboy, was afraid of death and only wanted to sneakily grow stronger, which is why he would hide and not hunt Base Variant Creatures.

Suddenly, a gigantic wave surged toward the beach, reaching much farther than the previous waves, prompting Lin Shen and his two companions to retreat.

When the seawater receded, the corpses of the Base Variant Creatures that were previously close to the ocean had been swept away into the sea.

Just when the onlookers felt pity, they saw a golden figure emerge from the waves.

“There’s still a Gold Armored Sea Demon daring to come out…” Xu Tiange’s eyes lit up, but upon seeing it clearly, his expression turned grave.

While they had been killing these Base Variant Creatures, they had learned from their watches that these creatures were known as Gold Armored Sea Demons, Alloy Level Base Variant Creatures.

However, the creature walking out from the waves was not one of those Alloy Level Gold Armored Sea Demons they had killed before.

This Gold Armored Sea Demon had a significantly larger body, standing over three meters tall.

Its entire armor resembled golden crystal silk, shimmering with countless golden threads within the Crystal Armor under the sunlight.

Its armor was also more ornate with ancient and mysterious patterns, and the helmet resembled a crown; in its hand, it wielded not a simple spear but a Golden Crystal Trident.

“Crystal-based Creature!” Lu Qing, whose enthusiasm for hunting Base Variant Creatures had just been ignited, also looked at the Crystal Base Level Gold Armored Sea Demon with a grave face.

“Lu Qing, let’s join forces to take it down, and we’ll split the profits evenly,” Xu Tiange hesitated for a moment, feeling that they should not be afraid of the Crystal-based Creature if it was two against one.

With such a high chance of these Base Variant Creatures nurturing Base Mutation Eggs, killing this Gold Armored Sea Demon might reward them with a Crystal Mutation Egg.

Lu Qing turned to Lin Shen and said, “Lin Shen, you should go hide in the thicket first, and after we kill it, we’ll give you a share of the Base Mutation Fluid.”

The previous battle had eased Lu Qing’s nerves a bit, and she had gained some confidence.

Like Xu Tiange, she also realized the high chance of Base Variant Creatures here nurturing Base Mutation Eggs, seeing it as a rare opportunity.

“No need, whoever hunts the Base Variant Creature keeps it,” Lin Shen signaled for Wei Wufu to retreat with him into the thicket.

Xu Tiange and Lu Qing were unaware of the situation here, but Lin Shen knew all too well that there were many mutated creatures in this area, and that Gold Armored Sea Demon might not be just an ordinary Crystal Base.

Lin Shen did not try to dissuade them—he knew that cutting off someone’s path to wealth was like killing one’s parents. Now, stopping Xu Tiange and Lu Qing might not necessarily turn them into enemies, but it would invariably leave a thorn in their hearts, making it difficult for them to get along harmoniously in the future.

Xu Tiange and Lu Qing exchanged looks and simultaneously commanded the Red Jade Lion and the Gold Crystal Horned Cow to charge at the Gold Armored Sea Demon.

The durability and strength of the Gold Crystal Horned Cow exceeded 39 points, and although it had not reached 40, it was already considered a very strong tank-type pet.

The Red Jade Lion was more balanced, with all stats above 36 points. Coupled with its rending claws and rapid chasing speed, it was a fearsomely aggressive type of pet.

Leading the charge, the Gold Crystal Horned Cow rammed forward, its two massive gold crystal horns fiercely striking towards the Gold Armored Sea Demon that had just stepped onto the beach.

The Gold Armored Sea Demon’s faceplate was smooth, without mouth or nose, and only had a horizontal bar over the eyes that twinkled with a golden light.

Sighting the charging Gold Crystal Horned Cow, it positioned its trident horizontally, blocking the massive horns.

The brute force of the Gold Crystal Horned Cow was unmatched; a single charge was enough to pierce and send a heavy tank flying.

Ordinarily, a Crystal-based Creature taking such a hit would likely be pushed back repeatedly or even impaled by the massive horns.

But when the Gold Armored Sea Demon’s trident blocked the horns, it remained unmoved, its strength no less than that of the Gold Crystal Horned Cow.
