Godly Evolution: I Can Fuse with the Genes of Every Living Creature - Chapter 6
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Creature soul equipment was different from ordinary weapons and equipment. It was very difficult to plunder.
The equipment was something unique to genetic warriors. It would disappear with if the wielder died.
Each type of creature soul equipment could only be equipped with one. Higher quality ones could replace the original.
As for Emerson’s stinger, that was a quasi-tier 9 creature soul weapon. It had yet to reach Tier 9.
If Emerson obtained a tier 9 or tier 8 creature soul weapon, he could replace his stinger. After that, the creature soul that was replaced could be materialized with some tools and be sold.
As for materialized tools, they could be brought in Iron City. The price was not expensive either.
Other than that, one could also choose to disassemble it. One could disassemble the creature soul equipment and sell it directly.
Naturally, no one would do such a thing. After every genetic warrior obtained creature soul equipment, there was still a way to earn gold coins.
If Emerson wanted to obtain Chris’ shield, he could only use a special method.
The threat posed by the Decaying Blood Moth was not too great.
However, very quickly, another group of uninvited guests arrived.
Iron Horn Ants arrived. When they attacked, they would use their horns that were as hard as steel to injure their enemies. At the same time, the stinger in their mouths could also numb their prey’s, increasing their advantage.
Even though they were not too annoying to a tier 9 genetic warrior, a group of creatures known as Skinning Hunters followed closely behind the ants.
There were 2 sharp knives in their hands. Their favorite thing to do was to peel off the skin of their prey and store it.
Although there were not many of them, their combat power was strong.
The Skinning Hunters were known as the top predators at the outermost region of the dark forest.
Whether or not a tier 9 genetic warrior could head to the outermost region of the dark forest depended on whether or not they could kill the Skinning Hunter 1-on-1.
Naturally, Chris had killed them before. However, as a newbie who had just joined the team, how could George know how terrifying these monsters were.
Furthermore, there were more than 1 of them!
Apart from these, he also heard more sounds coming from the dark forest. Clearly, there were plenty of mutated creatures heading toward them.
With that, Chris had the intention of retreating.
Facing those mutated creatures, a mere tier 9 genetic warrior could not deal with it.
The fire power in George’s body was rapidly depleting. As a result, sweats started appearing on his head.
Obviously, it was very difficult for him to use his own elemental power to form a barrier that could protect him from all angles.
After less than 10 seconds, his burden increased exponentially.
“Chris! Think of a way to contact captain!”
George gritted his teeth as he yelled.
“Clear a path for me. I’ll charge out!” Chris quickly responded.
“I’ll try my best!”
The 2 of them worked together and used a lot of strength to fight their way out.
Chris was able to escape. As the instigator, George became the sole target of many mutated creatures.
The scorching flames were dazzling.
Upon seeing that scene, Emerson, who was hiding in the dark, knew that it was time for him to make a move.
Since George was unable to protect himself, he did not need to care about him.
He only needed to get rid of Chris, who had left.
He moved swiftly as he passed through numerous branches. His Agility Gene was not to be underestimated. Very quickly, he caught up to Chris, who was a strength-type genetic warrior.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
Emerson’s mocking voice rang out.
Chris was shocked as he subconsciously raised his shield and turned around.
Clang!
The sound of weapons clashing rang out.
Chris’ body flew out uncontrollably, breaking 2 thick trees before he fell to the ground.
“Pfft.” Chris could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
In the fog, Emerson’s figure appeared.
“It’s you!”
Chris widened his eyes, filled with disbelief.
As the captain had reminded him, Emerson was trying to lure them into the dark forest.
However, how could Chris have expected that a hunter with a high Agility Gene would actually be able to suppress him in terms of strength?
Could it be that Emerson was not only a tier 9 genetic warrior? Did Chris meet someone who was stronger than him?
He was right, only an even stronger tier 8 genetic warrior could suppress Chris’ strength. Furthermore, his speed was not inferior to a tier 9 genetic warrior.
Looking at Emerson, who was approaching him, Chris made a decision in an instant.
“Don’t kill me. I admit defeat. I’ll give you whatever you want.”
“Oh?”
This time, it was Emerson’s turn to be surprised. He had not expected Chris to be such a coward. He never imagined Chris would admit defeat when he saw someone stronger than him.
However, he still had a certain level of wariness toward Chris.
“If that’s the case, then unequip all the creature soul equipment for me.”
“But…”
Chris hesitated. Creature soul equipment was the most important asset of a genetic warrior. He did not know how long it would take to make up for the loss.
Emerson said coldly, “Die, or hand over the creature soul. Choose!”
Chris gritted his teeth. “Fine, I’ll give it to you!”
As he spoke, he took out 2 small stones from the bag at his waist and held them in his hands.
A flash of light flashed, and 2 marks appeared on the 2 small stones. One was a knife, and the other was a shield.
Chris threw them to Emerson as he reached out to catch the stones. He took a look and found that they were indeed soul eater stones.
They were tools that could materialize creature souls.
“You surprised me,” Emerson said with a hint of sarcasm.
“I just want to live.” Chris smiled bitterly.
However, Emerson did not intend to let Chris go as he walked toward him slowly.
No mercy was the only rule of Iron City.
Emerson Cole, who had grown up in the slums, had long been used to their dirty deeds. Naturally, he would not make such a mistake.
Chris seemed to feel something was wrong and quickly said, “Wait, don’t kill me yet.”
However, Emerson did not stop. “Give me a reason.”
“I’ll leave Iron City.” Chris endured the pain as he said while gritting his teeth.
Emerson ignored Chris.
“I can give you 1,000 gold coins, as long as you don’t kill me.”
Emerson was already very close to Chris. The faint killing intent emitted from his body continuously stimulated Chris’ nerves.
Emerson held the stinger in his hand and looked at Chris coldly.
“Wait, I didn’t attack you. I gave you what you wanted!”
Chris shouted as he begged for mercy, “Let me go. I don’t want to die!”
“Unfortunately, your reason didn’t satisfy me.” Emerson raised the stinger as he was about to pierce Chris.
A hint of struggle flashed in Chris’ eyes. Finally, before the Emerson killed him, he said, “I can help you kill the captain! He must have something you need.”
“Oh?” Emerson’s hand stopped.
He fancied that reason.
