Capítulo 11: Chapter 11 Evolution
Jack Clark pondered briefly before asking softly, "How is genetic absorption operated, and are there any restrictions?"
After several days of research, Jack Clark discovered that the attribute page was not particularly intelligent, only providing reminders when certain conditions were met.
It would also respond to his inquiries when it came to prompts that were currently being triggered.
Indeed, a row of transparent text slowly emerged.
"To initiate Evolution, the Avatar must completely devour the organism whose genes it intends to merge with, absorbing the strongest genes to optimize itself."
"Note, each Evolution can only merge one type of gene."
"Only one type of gene can be merged each time, but even so, that's pretty good," Jack Clark licked his lips, suppressing the excitement in his heart.
At this moment, numerous thoughts surfaced in his mind, pondering what kind of creature's genes he should merge into the Salamander Avatar.
With each Evolution allowing for the merger of one creature's genes, Jack Clark was confident that after just a few more Evolutions, the Salamander Avatar would become very powerful.
Firstly, he ruled out creatures like elephants, lions, and tigers.
Not to mention whether he could get his hands on these animals, but even if he did, he wouldn't be able to consume them entirely in a short period, and their genetic potential is actually quite ordinary.
Despite elephants being the largest animals on land, their strength Burst, speed, and agility are not very prominent, including lions and tigers.
If one were to talk about the most extreme individual creatures on Earth, naturally, it would be insects.
A regular ant can lift objects several dozen times its own weight, something those mammals can't achieve due to their tiny size and extreme structural differences.
Then there are fleas that can leap instantly to a height over two hundred times their body length, equivalent to a person of 1.7 meters jumping to a height of over two hundred meters.
So after a bit of thought, Jack Clark set his sights on insects.
His knowledge about insects was limited, but that wasn't an issue.
Jack Clark turned on the computer and entered in the search page, "What is the strongest insect in the insect kingdom?"
Several hot terms popped up below immediately.
The Six-legged Salamander's strength was too weak, even struggling to crawl on its own limbs, so Jack Clark's first choice was to enhance its strength.
...
At nine o'clock in the morning, Jack Clark took a taxi to the biggest Flower, Bird, Fish, and Insect Market in the city.
Here, as long as it was a pet, whether it flew in the sky, crawled on the ground, or swam in the water, one could find it.
For example, the Six-legged Salamander pet was bought by Jack Clark here.
At a store called Exotic Birds and Insects on the street, Jack Clark walked straight in and asked the young man who was drinking tea by the coffee table, "Boss, do you have Unicorn Beetles here?"
"Unicorn Beetles, yes," the young store owner nodded.
Compared to ants with several dozen times their own strength, Unicorn Beetles are known as the strongmen of the insect world, with the highest record of lifting objects 850 times their own weight.
This kind of Power Explosion far surpasses other animals and insects.
The young store owner led Jack Clark inside and pointed to several boxes on the shelf, introducing, "I have three varieties of Unicorn Beetles here."
"They are the Dual-Pronged Rhino Beetle, the Tras South-Yang Kabuto, and the Mammoth Stag Beetle, which one do you want?"
The three kinds of Unicorn Beetles were all differently sized, with the largest Mammoth Stag Beetle being half the size of Jack Clark's palm and more than ten centimeters long, and the South-Yang Kabuto was similar.
With a quick glance, Jack Clark chose the latter, which was also the smallest, "Boss, I want a Dual-Pronged Rhino Beetle."
"Okay, fifty bucks each, do you want to buy some feed too?"
"No need."
After the scan code payment, Jack Clark left the Flower, Bird, Fish, and Insect Market with a small box containing the Unicorn Beetle, indulging in the luxury of a taxi ride home, as he was somewhat impatient.
In the second-floor room, the Six-legged Salamander on the table made eye contact with Jack Clark, beside it was the box with the Unicorn Beetle.
Suppressing the expectation in his heart, Jack Clark opened the box and grabbed the Unicorn Beetle.
```
Compared to the woolly mammoth beetle that was over ten centimeters long, filling more than half a palm, the fork-horned rhinoceros beetle was only about five centimeters, which wasn't very dramatic.
At this moment, it seemed to sense its fate, a strong struggling force came from Jack Clark's hand, the unicorn beetle was struggling.
Unfortunately, in the face of fingers pinching both sides of its body, the powerless creature could not leverage its considerable strength and was directly grabbed by Jack Clark by the head and the body, then snapped.
With a crack, the unicorn beetle was killed, its head separated from its body.
Then, it was gradually devoured by the salamander.
Meanwhile, Jack Clark summoned the attribute page and, with a thought, selected the option at the bottom: "Initiate Evolution?"
Boom!
As the confirmation was made, Jack Clark's consciousness felt a long-accumulating scorching power erupt within the salamander's body, sweeping through it like a flood.
Under this evolution energy, the bones and muscles of the six-legged salamander underwent earth-shattering transformations; cells were splitting and compressing furiously.
Even the deeper layers of its genetic material were changing and evolving.
While the salamander avatar began to evolve, streams of heat surged within Jack Clark's own body as well, enhancing his muscles, bones, and cells wherever they flowed.
This change was somewhat unexpected to him.
However, compared to the flood-like evolution energy within the salamander, the amount within his body was little, only making him a bit stronger.
This evolution process lasted about half an hour.
By the end of it, the salamander avatar on the table had a drastically different appearance.
The body length remained thirty centimeters, but the physique became much slimmer and more proportional, its previously rib-streaked belly now covered by solid muscle.
The wide, flat head became a bit rounder, the bilateral triple feather horns turned into tooth-like shapes, with a hardness shining through, no longer fleshy like before.
The fin on its back spread from the hind body to the neck, turning into white, horn-like barbs and extended to the tail, where it again became wide and flat.
The most significant change was its delicate limbs which had doubled in size, becoming powerful and robust, especially the pair of hind legs with obvious muscles, full of explosive power.
Even the tips of the limbs' claws turned black, growing into sharp, horn-like points radiating a fearsome aura.
These were only the external changes.
In Jack Clark's perception, the bones throughout the salamander's body had become more solid than before, and all its muscles were like strands of steel wire, full of explosive force.
And these changes were the result of absorbing the unicorn beetle's genes.
The unicorn beetle's strength came from its muscular fibers and its solid exoskeleton, capable of bursting and withstanding forces up to 850 times its own weight.
One could say that the salamander avatar had now evolved into a different species, only retaining some resemblance to the six-legged salamander in appearance.
After feeling the changes in the avatar, Jack Clark thoughtfully summoned the attribute page.
