Godly Evolution: I Can Fuse with the Genes of Every Living Creature - Chapter 31
Fortunately, there were many logs in the dark forest, which allowed Emerson to hide well.
“Looks like I have to find an opportunity to change my clothes, or it will be hard for me to shake them off.”
Emerson knew very well that even if he could use the terrain there and his own speed to temporarily outrun them.
However, the smell of blood on his body would still reveal his movements.
Emerson ran forward with his head lowered while constantly paying attention to the movements of the mutated creatures behind him.
After running for a long time, Emerson suddenly found a wide open area in front of him. There were no trees there.
With that, it made him groan endlessly in his heart. “F*ck. It’s an open area. How am I supposed to hide now?”
Without the obstruction of the bushes, logs. and trees, Emerson’s figure was instantly exposed.
The Shadow Rhino chasing behind him became even crazier when it saw Emerson. It rushed toward him without any mercy.
In the blink of an eye, the mutated creatures chasing him had closed the distance.
Even the other mutated creatures behind him were surrounding him from all directions. Clearly, they did not want to let Emerson leave so easily.
Upon seeing that he was about to be caught up by these mutated creatures, he gritted his teeth and continued to charge forward.
He was very clear in his heart that once he was surrounded by these mutated creatures, there would only be one outcome waiting for him – Death!
Emerson did not say anything and used his spatial ability to increase his speed.
However, using spatial ability consumed a lot of energy, especially his spiritual power. Furthermore, he had been running for hours. Hence, even a strong man like him felt weak and absent-minded at that moment.
In order to survive, Emerson could not think too much. While using his spatial ability, he also took out the food that he had prepared from the bag and threw it into his mouth to replenish his energy.
[Slime fusion. Physical Gene: +6.]
[Molten Cow fusion. Physical Gene: +10.]
[Molten Cow fusion. Strength Gene: +3.]
[Rainbow Python fusion. Strength Gene” +9.]
[…]
Instantly, his body felt warm. Emerson, who was originally feeling weak, once again felt his body filled with strength.
However, he did not fight against those mutated creatures just because his body was filled with power.
What he wanted to do was to draw them away and shake them off.
Screech!
Suddenly, a loud screech sounded.
Emerson, who was running, was startled. He looked up and saw a huge eagle appearing in the sky.
“This is… A strong tier 7 mutated creature – Crimson Thunder Eagle!”
Looking at the eagle, Emerson cried out in surprise.
He did not expect to meet that thing at such a critical moment.
According to Emerson’s understanding, other than the time when the Crimson Thunder Eagle usually foraged for food, it would rarely appear in its territory.
He did not expect that because of him, the eagle would actually be attracted.
“Looks like even God wants to kill me…” Emerson cried out in his heart. Plenty of mutated creatures were chasing after him. In such a situation, he did not know how to escape.
Screech!
The Crimson Thunder Eagle let out a screech and flapped its wings as it swooped down.
“Not good!”
Emerson saw the eagle charging over and hurriedly dodged, hoping to avoid the its attack.
However, a strange scene appeared. The Crimson Thunder Eagle did not charge toward Emerson. Instead, it charged toward the Shadow Rhino.
Rumble!
The 2 tier 7 mutated creatures engaged in battle, causing a loud explosion.
“I understand now. Every creature has an extremely strong territorial awareness. Once other mutated creatures step into their territory, they’ll treat the them as an intruder and start a fight.”
“And this is the Crimson Thunder Eagle’s territory. I accidentally brought the Shadow Rhino into its territory, causing the eagle to be furious. That’s why it launched an attack.”
Thinking of this, Emerson’s eyes lit up. He did not expect that he could run away from their attacks.
Fortunately, the Crimson Thunder Eagle did not attack Emerson, but the Shadow Rhino. Otherwise, he would not know what to do.
Using the time when the Crimson Thunder Eagle and the Shadow Rhino were fighting, Emerson found a place to quickly change his clothes.
Upon seeing that both sides were still fighting and had no time to care about him, Emerson did not plan to stay too long at that place.
He was not clear about Tifa’s current situation, which made him a little worried.
Then, he continued to move forward. He was very clear that if he wanted to leave, he could not take the same route, so he could only find another way.
After all, there were still a large number of mutated creatures waiting for him behind him.
As long as he appeared, those mutated creatures would probably surround and attack him. He should not do that.
After advancing for a while, Emerson discovered a nest on a big tree in front of him.
“Eh? A nest? Am I this lucky?”
Emerson was stunned when he saw the nest on the tree. He did not expect to randomly choose a path and encounter the nest of the Crimson Thunder Eagle. He was lucky.
“Should I go up and take a look?”
Emerson asked himself.
He was worried about Tifa’s safety. On the other hand, he encountered the nest of the Crimson Thunder Eagle. He felt unwilling just to leave the like that.
After struggling for a long time, his curiosity finally gained the upper hand. Emerson decided to take a look at the nest.
“Eh? I didn’t expect there to be 3 eggs in the nest.” Emerson was delighted when he saw the eggs.
However, he did not make a move immediately. Instead, he turned around and glanced in the direction of the Crimson Thunder Eagle. He saw that it was still fighting with the Shadow Rhino, and it was getting more and more intense. He was sure that they would not stop fighting, which made him feel much more relieved.
Then, he slowly reached out to pick up an egg.
Looking at the huge egg in his arms, Emerson Cole was very happy.
“3 eggs. 2 for myself. I’ll eat 1 of the eggs. The remaining 1e will be sold at a good price when I return to Iron City.”
Thinking of that, Emerson reached out to pick up another egg, leaving the smallest egg in the nest.
“Mr. Crimson Thunder Eagle, I’m not greedy. I only took 2. I’m leaving 1 for you”
After saying that, Emerson placed the 2 giant eggs into his bag. Without turning back, he ran forward, intending to look for Tifa.
At that moment, Emerson’s speed was unprecedentedly fast. He was not sure if the eagle would notice that he had stolen its eggs.
Emerson did not want to be targeted by another tier 7 mutated creature just as he escaped from the Shadow Rhino’s pursuit.
