Infinite Evolution

Chapter 18 Poison or Spice?

Ability and technology are the two pillars that support the survival of human beings in this cruel apocalypse.

Just as science and technology are subdivided into various fields such as biology, chemistry, and physics, with the gradual improvement and strength of the supernatural power system, supernatural powers have also been subdivided into two major departments.

Strong system and elemental system.

Or more simply, applying the occupational rules in the game, they are fighters and mages.

Among them, the strong system generally refers to the ability that can strengthen the melee ability of the supernatural being, greatly improving its strength, defense, and speed, and using melee as the main means of attack. Under it, various branches are subdivided, such as the mimicry system, the enhancement system, and the alienation system.

Whether it is Chu Xun's worm body ability, Chu Jie's rock armor, or Chu Qing's diamond body, they all belong to the strong system, a large ability system, but they belong to different branches.

And there are more branches of the elemental system, almost any non-melee ability related to elemental power is planned into the elemental system.

For example, the princess-like girl's fire ability, or Nangong Yan's light ability, or Chuxiong's summoning ability, are actually a kind of elemental ability.

With systematic branches, there will naturally be systematic training.

Ability is born, but how to use it can be trained through the day after tomorrow. Because of this, almost every city has institutions that specialize in training these two lines of abilities. By decision of the Supreme Council, both institutions have a unified name.

The Hall of Battle Techniques and the Hall of Battle Skills.

The name is very vulgar, but the content of the teaching is not vulgar. In addition to the standard training materials issued by the Supreme Council, each city will also send experienced supernatural beings to serve as supervisors and instructors of the two training institutions, and then they will pass on their combat experience to those who come to learn students.

Under this kind of systematic teaching, the ability user can master his ability in a short period of time, and can further exert the actual combat power of the ability.

So after a few hours of rest, Chu Xuntian left the house early before dawn, preparing to go to the Battle Skills Hall for special training. Because only in this place, it is possible to further improve his strength in just half a month.

However, after leaving the house, Chu Xun did not go directly to the Battle Skill Hall, but walked towards the family cafeteria not far away.

After merging the alien gene and ant gene, Chu Xun's physical fitness has been greatly improved, but at the same time his appetite has become extremely terrifying. In just a few hours of resting at home, he had already eaten everything he could eat, but his stomach was still extremely hungry.

Well, this is also the reason why Chu Xun went out before dawn - he was so hungry that he couldn't stand it!

Fortunately, the family canteen is free for the direct descendants of the Chu family. Although the taste may not be good, it is definitely enough.

"It's finally out!" Seeing Chu Xun leave the room, Ghost Blade, who had been waiting in front of Chu Xun's room for several hours, lit up and followed silently.

Ghost Blade is not a supernatural being, but to some extent he is scarier than many ordinary supernatural beings because he is a killer who is proficient in killing techniques.

It is said that snakes have their own way of snakes, and rats have their way of rats. In this cruel world, although people with supernatural powers can be proud of the world by virtue of their supernatural powers, ordinary people also have their own ways to become stronger. Just like a person like Ghost Blade, although he has no supernatural powers, he is proficient in killing techniques such as firearms, hidden weapons, and poisoning. From his debut to the present, more than a hundred people have died under his hands, and there are even three supernatural beings among them.

Precisely because of this unique killing skill, Ghost Blade also received Chu Han's attention after he took refuge in Chu Han's subordinates, and even sent him to his beloved young son. Similarly, Chu Jie did not dare to really treat Ghost Blade as an ordinary domestic slave, and respected him. Even if he wanted Ghost Blade to help him kill Chu Xun, he could only drive him with profit in the end.

"Family canteen? It seems that God is helping me!" Seeing Chu Xun enter the family canteen, Ghost Blade's eyes lit up, and then he took out some small medicine bottles from his arms and smiled slightly.

His best method of killing people is to use poison!

Due to the uncertain practice time and meal time of the supernatural beings, the Chu family cafeteria is open 24 hours a day. All the food inside has been packaged in a dining box, and it can be eaten as long as it is heated up.

"I'm so hungry..." Looking at the neatly arranged lunch boxes in the cafeteria, Chu Xun's eyes lit up, and then he quickly picked up a few lunch boxes, warmed them up slightly with the heater, and began to eat extravagantly.

The food in the lunch box is relatively simple, and they are all vegetables and meat cultivated with genetic technology. Although the nutritional value is high, the taste is really average.

But for the hungry Chu Xun, it was enough to be full. And he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the food tasted better the longer he ate it, and there were even many seasonings and spices in it that he had never tasted before, which whetted his appetite.

"Hey, when did the food in the cafeteria get so good? Could it be that that miser, Chu Han, is finally willing to allocate funds to improve the food in the cafeteria?" Chu Xun also felt a little doubtful in his heart while eating and eating.

You must know that the food in the last days is often very poor. Although the genetic cultivation technology can barely supply the food that people need, it is only limited to this. If you want to add spices that make your food more delicious, there are only two ways.

The first is to venture out of the city to search and pick them, and the second is to spend time cultivating them. It's just that the natural environment and land composition have changed to a certain extent after the cataclysm, so it takes a long time and effort to cultivate these spices.

It is precisely because of this that the price of spices is far higher than that of ordinary ingredients. That's why Chu Xun was surprised and curious after tasting the delicious food in the cafeteria...

However, Chu Xun didn't know that his behavior of eating extravagantly had scared the ghost blade hidden in the dark into a cold sweat.

"Grass, what kind of monster is this kid..." Seeing Chu Xun who was feasting, Ghost Blade's face became extremely ugly.

What surprised him was not Chu Xun's appetite, but what Chu Xun ate. You know, he has quietly injected no less than ten types of poisons into the food that Chu Xun eats. Even the weakest of these poisons can poison a grown man in a few seconds, and among them The most powerful "rotting blood flower" is even unbearable to ordinary supernatural beings, and soon after eating it, the blood will rot and die.

But this kid, after eating so much highly poisonous food, not only is he fine, but his appetite seems to have gotten better...

Where did this monster come from!

"I'm finally full!" Chu Xun didn't know that the "spice" in his food was actually a poison that could break the heart and shatter the soul. After eating food for nearly ten people, he was finally full, then wiped his mouth, stood up, and walked out of the cafeteria.

At this moment, his face was ruddy, with a sense of satisfaction on his face, and he even hummed a little tune, showing no signs of poisoning at all.

But nothing is normal. After the fusion of the alien gene, Chu Xun's blood has been transformed into acidic blood similar to the alien, and the internal organs of his body have also been greatly strengthened. The powerful medicine has not completely dissipated, let alone this mere "Rotten Blood Flower" at this moment, even the legendary "Soul Severing Grass" that can poison high-level supernatural beings may not be able to hurt him.

"Damn, the information is wrong!" Seeing Chu Xun's rosy complexion and refreshed appearance, Ghost Blade finally couldn't help but curse.

A person who can treat poison as a spice and eat it raw and cold will definitely not be a good-for-nothing like Chu Jie said.

To be honest, for a killer, when there is an obvious deviation between the actual situation of the target and the intelligence, the most sensible decision should be to stop immediately and give up the business.

But when he thought of the huge profits he could get from killing Chu Xun, Ghost Blade hesitated again. He is just an ordinary person, and he is already in his thirties. If this continues, his body functions will gradually degenerate in a short time, and he will become more and more aging.

He didn't want to just age like this, and he didn't want to become a waste, and the only way to change this situation was to buy genetic enhancement medicine to strengthen his own genes. In that case, not only will his physical fitness become stronger, but his lifespan will also be greatly improved.

However, the price of gene enhancement medicine is extremely high, and his current net worth is not enough, so these twenty standard crystal nuclei are extremely important to him.

"According to the information, this kid was definitely a waste before. Even if he has awakened his abilities, he should have just awakened not long ago. Damn it, it's done, anyway, it's not the first time he has attacked a person with abilities!" Li Lingzhi fainted, hesitating After a while, Ghost Blade finally convinced himself, then gritted his teeth, and followed Chu Xun again.

He believed that with his own abilities, he would have absolutely no problem dealing with a newly awakened supernatural being!
