"Thud!"
As the Black Fish took a bite, a pit was created where Liu You'er was standing. This fish looked similar to an ordinary Black Fish, with a cylindrical shape in the front and a slightly flattened back. It had spines running continuously from its back and belly to its tail, which was not forked.
The entire body was gray-black, with a darker color on the back and top of the head, while the belly was light white. There were irregular black patches on both sides of its body, and two rows of black stripes on either side of its head. The fins had alternating black and white spots, while the pectoral fins had irregular gray-yellow spots.
Well, everything is the same. If there’s anything different, it’s just... it’s bigger, about 5 meters long and 1.7 meters high, with thicker spines that are roughly as thick as two fingers of an adult man combined. Its skin has a better sheen, looking quite sturdy...
Heh heh~ The apocalypse is indeed terrifying.
At this moment, Liu You'er was twenty meters to the left of the Black Fish, her gaze flickering as she observed it. While preparing to escape, she pulled back the chicken that was about to turn and run, placing it on her shoulder and coldly saying, "Xiao Hong, don’t run around."
"Coo?!" (What is that?! Who is Xiao Hong?! You wouldn’t seriously name me something so cheesy!)
Hearing the chicken's call, the Black Fish paused its movements and awkwardly turned its heavy body to look at Liu You'er. Its large eyes were filled with confusion, as if it couldn’t understand why something that should have been in its mouth was now so far away.
Seeing the Black Fish's obvious expression, Liu You'er sighed lightly but felt even more excited. She probed the fish with her mind and discovered that it was only at mid-level two. Moreover, from its appearance, it seemed to be an evolved Black Fish rather than a mutated one.
"Coo!" (I’m asking you a question! Why are you ignoring me!)
Liu You'er’s thoughts were interrupted by Xiao Hong, which made her feel quite displeased. However, she still ignored it and watched as the Black Fish slithered towards her like a snake.
Hmm? Why hasn’t this Foolish Chicken entered the space?
Sigh~
With another Teleportation, Liu You'er appeared behind the Black Fish, holding a bottle of water in her hand.
Black Fish found itself confused again after missing its target, and its perception of the surroundings indicated that the food was right behind it!
A cunning glint flashed in its eyes as it lunged backward once more, only to find the food had vanished again! It quickly turned around, opened its Big Mouth, and bared its sharp teeth, ready to bite down in front of it.
Liu You'er watched as Black Fish took another bite of mud, her expression cold but her eyes filled with mockery. She pursed her cherry lips and said, "So stupid."
The mocking gaze and her factual tone infuriated Black Fish! It finally lost its composure and charged toward Liu You'er, disregarding everything else.
Liu You'er remained unfazed, sticking to her strategy of fleeing while occasionally attacking Black Fish to keep it engaged. Of course, there was one moment when she got careless and left a small wound on her arm.
"Ouch!"
Liu You'er looked at her arm in confusion, unable to understand why she felt pain.
Black Fish was in agony, with numerous blackened scars from electric burns covering its body. If it were to describe its feelings, it could only say it felt utterly frustrated. No, even that wouldn't perfectly capture its emotions.
Ever since its evolution, it had been like a protagonist in a power fantasy! In the water, every creature would flee at the sight of it. Only when it was in a good mood would it let them go. Yet this food dared to injure it!
"Wait? Why did she stop? Even if there's a big tree in front of her, it shouldn't block her slippery figure! Wait a minute... where am I?"
The Black Fish stared at the halted figure ahead, swallowed hard, and glanced around at the towering trees. A sense of unease crept into its heart.
"Hey? Where did that red-haired food go?"
Liu You'er turned around, lazily leaning against the tree that was "blocking" her, a light smile playing on her lips.
Seeing that smile made Black Fish even more anxious. It was a fish with intelligence! So it decided: time to make a run for it!
Unfortunately, just as it turned around, a rustling sound came from behind. It saw thousands of ten-centimeter-long Worker Ants completely surrounding the Black Fish.
At the same time, Little Red (calling this name again would truly end our friendship!) was proudly sitting on the back of an ant that was almost the same size as itself. Even from Liu You'er's perspective, due to the distance, it was impossible to see its expression clearly, but one could still sense its arrogance.
The Black Fish had already realized that it stood no chance. It might have been able to handle just Liu You'er, but with this group of unfamiliar Evolved Creatures... it was doomed!
However! It glared fiercely at Liu You'er, thinking, "Even if I die, I will take you down with me!"
It opened its Big Mouth, a light green liquid seeping out, and lunged at Liu You'er once more!
"Bang!"
Dust rose along with falling leaves, obscuring the situation. Little Red nervously flapped its Wings and flew into the air, anxiously watching the center of the dust cloud, only to find that Liu You'er had vanished, leaving only the taunting ugly fish staring back at it!
Little Red felt as if something in its mind had snapped. A surge of energy flowed through its body from the essence of nature, causing it to grow rapidly. Colorful feathers sprouted from its head, its neck became slender, its claws sharpened, and it grew to about two meters tall. Its gaze became sharp, and fiery red flames began to erupt from its body as it let out a distinctive eagle cry.
The Black Fish stared in shock at the little creature that had suddenly become so imposing, with swirling flames faintly appearing in its mouth. Before it could react, a sharp pain surged from its belly, causing it to roll on the ground in agony.
At that moment, Liu You'er was inside the Black Fish's belly, standing on a half-melted Zombie corpse. One hand emitted Electric Light for illumination while the other covered her nose.
"Why? It ate a Zombie but didn't mutate?"
She took another look at the structure of the Black Fish's stomach and felt that aside from being a bit larger and having stronger stomach acid, there wasn't much difference.
Alright, it's time to get out~
The electric current formed into a circular shield that enveloped Liu You'er completely. Then, without caring about shocking the Black Fish's soft insides, she crawled straight out.
Hehe, although the posture is a bit low, at least everything is fine.
Black Fish was bouncing on the ground in pain, gritting its teeth and trying to smash Liu You'er, but it was of no use. It had to open its mouth.
A strong current flashed by, and several pearly white teeth flew out of Black Fish's mouth, causing the entire fish to faint. The figure of Liu You'er slowly appeared.
Xiao Hong saw Liu You'er and felt like a deflated balloon, all energy dissipated, yet still insisted on flying over.
As soon as Liu You'er appeared, Xiao Hong pounced into her arms, its small body seemed exhausted, and after a satisfied glance at her, it fainted.
Liu You'er looked at it calmly and then placed it into the pocket of her coat. She then turned her attention to the fainted Black Fish.
Black Fish felt intense pain all over its body and was forcefully pulled back to reality. As it opened its eyes, it saw Liu You'er's cold figure and quickly shrank back, not daring to move.
"If you can understand me, move your fins twice."
After hesitating for a moment, Black Fish moved its fins twice.
"Drink this."
Black Fish looked at the water in Liu You'er's hand with slight fear, but as soon as the cap was opened, its eyes lit up instantly.
Seeing Black Fish's expression and the excited swarm of ants, Liu You'er knew that this water must be very beneficial for Evolved Creatures.
Without any resistance, Black Fish opened its mouth, waiting for Liu You'er to feed it water. However, after pouring for a while, Liu You'er paused her hand and stopped just as she saw Black Fish enjoying and anticipating. Then she carefully took Xiao Hong out from inside her coat and fed it the remaining quarter of the water bit by bit.
Watching Xiao Hong's expression seem to no longer be in pain, she gently placed it back inside her coat.
Although the aura remained cold and stern, there seemed to be a hint of warmth within it.
When Liu You'er looked at Black Fish again, she found it gazing at her with admiration, as if it really liked her. The previous wariness, fear, and a trace of hostility had all vanished.
She raised her eyebrows slightly, associating Black Fish's current demeanor with Queen Ant, and said in a calm tone, "Roll around twice."
Black Fish obediently rolled on the ground twice.
"Jump twice."
Black Fish complied and jumped twice on the ground.
"Oh, good. Go back where you came from and evolve properly."
Black Fish: "..."
After Liu You'er finished speaking, she no longer paid attention to it. She turned around and called for Ant Army to disperse before leaving gracefully, leaving Black Fish alone in a state of confusion.
