Chapter 15

"No new troop types this time?"

Lu Cang was still somewhat dissatisfied with this evolution.

After all, this evolution still hadn't granted him any new troop types.

This left Lu Cang with no way to mass-produce troops and kill monsters.

To obtain a large amount of gene points.

Lu Cang really wanted to unlock the 【Secret Steel Tissue】 gene.

This would surely boost his combat power by a huge margin.

Still, Lu Cang wasn't in a rush.

Right now, only a single day had passed.

Of the seven-day newbie protection period, six days remained.

Linglong Group: 703216220

The resources here were so abundant.

Lu Cang figured that even six days would be enough to develop himself to an extremely powerful realm.

Then, Lu Cang looked at the two new buildings he had obtained.

【Flesh Wall】

【Construction Cost: Flesh — 500~10,000 units】

【Hatchery Neurons Occupied: 1~5】

【Growth Time: 5~100 minutes】

【Effect: Creates a section of flesh wall; every 500 units of flesh can produce 1,000 cubic meters of flesh wall】

【Effect Two: The flesh wall is composed of muscle and fat tissue, and to a certain extent is treated as a living organism, allowing it to benefit from special gene enhancements】

【Effect Three: This flesh wall is mobile and can freely control the movement of its flesh, forming openings for creatures to pass through.】

"A defensive-type fortification, huh."

"If the flesh wall can use Secret Steel Tissue…"

"This strength seems a bit ridiculously high."

One must understand that ordinary Secret Steel Stone, even if it could be mined, still needed to be forged and refined before it could be used.

To mine Secret Steel Stone capable of withstanding Holy-tier attacks…

Would require a great deal of effort.

An ordinary person, even if they possessed an entire mountain of Secret Steel Stone, could not possibly build a wall of Secret Steel Stone in a short time.

Let alone…

Using Secret Steel Stone to build a wall — how extravagant was that?

Even powerful lords would only bear to use a tiny bit of Secret Steel Stone for protection on the key parts of their own armor.

Even with ample Secret Steel Stone…

To forge it into a wall would still take an extremely long time.

Moreover, obtaining the architectural blueprint for a Secret Steel Stone wall was also extremely difficult.

With all these factors stacked together…

Possessing such a sturdy wall was almost an impossible feat.

But now…

Lu Cang looked at his 【Flesh Wall】 building.

It seemed he could already accomplish it?

Flesh wall combined with 【Secret Steel Tissue】…

Hard as Secret Steel Stone itself.

Wouldn't that mean the flesh wall he built would be completely equal in hardness to Secret Steel Stone?

This defensive power was simply heaven-defying.

Moreover, combining 【Flesh Wall】 with the 【Mimicry】 effect he had just obtained…

Lu Cang could even directly build the flesh wall right at the cave entrance.

Completely sealing off the entrance.

Then using the Mimicry ability…

Others would simply be unable to discover that there was a cave here at all.

Extremely strong concealment.

"This is really a good thing."

"Grow flesh wall."

Lu Cang looked toward the cave entrance.

With a single thought, he planned out the construction range.

【This construction will consume 2,000 units of flesh, construction time: 20 minutes. Confirm?】

"Confirm."

Lu Cang wasn't short on these 2,000 units of flesh right now.

This was just two minutes' worth of assimilation for the Hatchery.

However, what Lu Cang found regrettable was that from Tier-1 to Tier-3, the Hatchery had evolved twice.

Yet the assimilation speed hadn't increased at all — still 0.1 units of Secret Steel Stone per minute.

Then, Lu Cang looked at the second new building he had obtained.

The name of this new building is both foul and excessively long.

【Evolution Gene Analysis Pod】

【Construction Cost: Flesh and Blood — 10,000 Units】

【Occupies 50 Mother Nest Neurons】

【Growth Time: 120 Minutes】

【Effect: Swallow a certain number of biological corpses, spend a certain amount of time analyzing them, then obtain new troop types or perform gene evolution on existing troop types.】

【Effect Two: Swallow biological corpses to gain double Gene Points. (Unique; does not increase by constructing multiple buildings of the same type)】

After Lu Cang saw this introduction,

he was slightly stunned.

"This is too overpowered, isn't it?"

This can actually swallow corpses and obtain new troop types?
