Chapter 36: Experimental Toxins

Of course, if the humans hadn’t pushed him too hard, the situation wouldn’t have developed to the point of no return.

At least, from the bottom of his heart, Lin Meng didn’t mind coexisting with the humans.

In the first place, the humans had no ill intentions towards him.

After thinking so much, Lin Meng’s train of thought became clearer and clearer.

While strengthening himself, he also cultivated more mutated beasts.

Moreover, it was worth mentioning that some mutated beasts didn’t need to be nurtured too much.

Just like the Ox Demon.

A race like the wind wolf.

As long as they were nurtured to be the strongest, they would be able to fight for the position of leader.

In this way, Lin Meng didn’t have to pay too much of a price. He could harvest a herd of cows or wolves.

“However, when nurturing mutated beasts, the most important thing is to strengthen oneself.”

Thinking of this.

Lin Meng immediately pulled the attribute panel.

Now that he had 172 evolution points, he could upgrade a few decent abilities.

For example, he could strengthen the branches first.

Without hesitation, he started.

Ding-dong! “Are you sure you want to use 5 evolution points to strengthen the branches?”

“Yes.”

Nodding his head, Lin Meng agreed.

Although 5 evolution points was a lot, the consumption of evolution points was always equivalent.

In other words, such strengthening was definitely worth it.

With this thought in mind, Lin Meng also felt a warm current rising from every corner of his body.

Then, without waiting for him to react.

This warm current was already spreading towards a branch.

Crack!

Along with a crisp sound, it was as if the bark had exploded.

The end of this branch that had been strengthened once again actually sprouted new buds.

At the same time, an even denser wave of vitality was already spreading without stopping.

Moreover, a fragrance was also being released at the same time.

“This…”

Lin Meng felt that there were some indescribable changes in his branch.

The original branches had already been strengthened by evolution points and he could control them freely.

But now, with the strengthening of his control, apart from making the branches tougher…

It seemed to have an additional ability.

Thinking of this, Lin Meng looked at the attribute panel.

Mutated Branches LV2—after being strengthened several times, the hardness of the branches was already comparable to steel. They could freely bend and grow, and they could secrete a poison that was enough to paralyze the body of the prey. Or even make them unconscious.

Looking at this piece of news, Lin Meng was silent for a moment.

He had to admit that it was a little scary.

The branches that were already very strong were now tender and secreting poison. Just thinking about it was shocking.

At this moment, Lin Meng had a feeling.

If he strengthened all of his branches, his combat strength would at least increase by several times.

One had to know that his thousands of branches were his tentacles.

Wherever the branches touched, they could be killed.

But now, after being strengthened, just blocking the attack was not enough.

They still had to resist the poison he was secreting.

Although he did not know how strong the poison he was secreting was, just by looking at the level 2 ability, one could see how terrifying the poison was.

One had to know that none of Lin Meng’s level 2 weapons were easy to deal with.

One was the level 2 thick fog, which was about to cover a hundred thousand mountains.

A level 2 hallucination could use the thick fog to create illusions and disrupt the mind.

Of course, no matter how terrifying Lin Meng was in battle, he had a disadvantage.

He was just a willow tree. Even if his individual combat strength was shocking, he could not leave the earth.

“Hu…”

He let out a deep breath.

Lin Meng was also a little helpless.

If he could pull out the roots of the tree and run under the setting sun, even humans would not be afraid.

If they could not beat him, they would use the cannon.

The world was so big, was there no place for him to go?

Unfortunately.

His greatest helplessness was to take root in the earth and he could only quietly guard this canyon.

…

And at this time, he seemed to have sensed something.

Lin Meng’s heart moved.

“I may not have the heart to use you as a test subject but who asked you to be the most disobedient?”

He laughed mockingly.

Lin Meng’s gaze had already arrived at the ground not far away.

He stubbornly dug a hole.

He wanted to leave the honey badger in the tree cage.

Now, the honey badger, which had more than half of its injuries recovered, did not take the initiative to leave Lin Meng’s body.

However, it still maintained its “reckless” nature.

Other than going out to hunt within the time allowed by Lin Meng.

The honey badger only wanted to get out of the tree cage that Lin Meng had imprisoned and then find other mutated animals to fight.

If it wasn’t for the fact that this guy always knew how to bring his prey back when he was hunting…

Lin Meng would have killed it long ago to give himself evolution points.

Of course, considering the fact that the honey badger gave him evolution points…

Lin Meng was just using the cage to keep him from causing trouble.

However, this guy was also cute.

It seemed that he was on the trunk of Lin Meng’s cage.

Every time he saw Lin Meng raise the tree cage, he would let out a surprised cry.

Then, his eyes would turn red as he began to bite the tree cage.

When he realized that he could not bite the tree cage open, he began to dig the hole again.

However, the deeper he dug, the deeper he dug.

Up until now, he had dug twenty to thirty meters but he still had not escaped from the tree cage.

When he thought of this, Lin Meng could not help but laugh.

Then, the branch gently swayed.

Immediately after, a green branch had already sunk into a pitch-black hole not far from the ground.

A moment later.

From the perspective of the branch, Lin Meng saw a honey badger that had been magnified several times. Like an excavator, it was riveted hard, and its pair of sharp claws couldn’t stop flying.

Just once, just once.

Quietly, Lin Meng slowed down the speed of the branch.

Fortunately, the honey badger was focused on digging a hole, so it did not notice the incoming branch.

And just as it was about to come into contact with the honey badger…

Lin Meng controlled the branches and suddenly accelerated.

Sizzle!

It was like the sound of needles stabbing.

The honey badger did not notice it.

And just at this moment…

Under Lin Meng’s expectant gaze, the honey badger’s movements suddenly stopped, and then it seemed to twitch.

His legs flicked…

“Is it paralyzed just like that?”

He laughed in his heart.

Lin Meng was also pleasantly surprised by the speed and terror of the poison.

However, before Lin Meng could be more pleasantly surprised.

“Roar…”

A low roar made Lin Meng’s face stiffen slightly.

He looked up and saw that the frozen honey badger actually shook its head.

Then, as if nothing had happened, it began to dig again.

“Uh… is this really a level 2 poison?”

Seeing this, Lin Meng began to doubt life.

Even a level 6 mutated beast couldn’t be paralyzed for half a day, so how could this poison threaten someone of the same level?

“Haha…”

A chuckle.

A bell-like voice suddenly sounded in Lin Meng’s ear.

Looking in the direction of the voice, Lin Meng found an illusory woman in a white dress sitting on his branch. She couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh.

“What are you laughing at?”
