111 Chapter 111: A Bountiful Harvest of beast cores
Yang Tian suddenly thought of the little unicorn.
The sky was about to turn dark, and the little unicorn was still in its original spot. It was now a level-three exotic beast, and was still very afraid of level-eight exotic beasts, so it had remained where it was.
Yang Tian blew a loud whistle in the direction of the little unicorn.
When the little unicorn heard it, it held Yang Tian’s backpack in its mouth and ran in the direction of the sound.
After more than ten minutes, the little unicorn met up with Yang Tian and the little azure dragon. Yang Tian patted the little unicorn’s head, took the backpack from its mouth, and held it in his hand.
The backpacks of Wang Kun and the others were placed in the forest not far away from the giant earthworm. With the Little Azure Dragon leading the way, Yang Tian quickly found the backpacks of the five people.
Opening one of the backpacks, Yang Tian found that there was some salt and water in the backpack, as well as a change of clothes, a few lightning bolts, and a few high-explosive detonators that could be timed.
Yang Tian didn’t want the clothes. He put an unopened bottle of pure water into his backpack, as well as three lightning bolts and two timed high explosive detonators. These powerful weapons would still play a role in critical moments.
Just like this giant earthworm, if there were such timed high explosive detonators, it would be much easier to kill this giant earthworm.
Opening one backpack after another, Yang Tian picked out the things he needed and put them into his backpack.
Actually, there were not many things. The five of them had probably been out for a long time. When they were about to return to the city, they heard the movement and ran over to check. The living materials that they had brought with them were almost used up.
When Yang Tian opened the third backpack, his eyes lit up because he had finally found what he wanted!
There were five Grade 1 beast cores, three Grade 2 beast cores, one grade 3 Beast Core, two Grade 4 beast cores, and one grade 5 Beast Core. There were a total of thirteen beast cores.
“This team has really harvested a lot!”Looking at these beast cores, Yang Tian laughed happily. The value of these beast cores had reached more than 600 million martial dollars.
This backpack should be Wang Kun’s backpack. With so many beast cores, it was likely that he would gather all the beast cores that the team had obtained and only dispose of them after returning to the city.
This was also the rule of many teams that went out to train. The last time Yang Tian and Xiao Fei went out, it was also the same rule.
After putting away the things, Yang Tian carried the bag and came to the body of the giant earthworm.
“Little Dragon, where is the Beast Core?”
Yang Tian looked at the little azure dragon that had already jumped onto the back of the Little Unicorn and asked with a smile.
The Little Azure Dragon squeaked twice and jumped off the back of the little unicorn. It ran to the tail of the giant earthworm and scratched it a few times with its claws.
The Beast Core of this giant earthworm was actually on its tail, which made Yang Tian very surprised.
Most of the beast cores of mutated beasts existed in the brain. Could it be that the tail of this giant earthworm was where the brain was located?
The tail of the giant earthworm was much thinner than other parts of its body, but its diameter was about five meters. Yang Tian took a look, pulled out his knife, and cut the tail of the giant earthworm five times before cutting it open.
The tail of the giant earthworm was much harder than the other parts of its body, as if it was made of cartilage. After a few cuts, there was a “Ka Ka”sound.
When the tail of the giant earthworm was cut open, Yang Tian could not help but widen his eyes when he saw the situation inside. His heart was beating rapidly because he was extremely excited.
In his eyes, a bloody red cavity made of a hard shell appeared. It was filled with white liquid. On the wall of the cavity, the white, grease-like membrane was inlaid with colorful beast cores, there were a lot of them.
“One, two, three, four…”
Looking at these beast cores, Yang Tian suppressed his excitement and began to count.
He didn’t stop until he counted to 36.
There were 36 beast cores in this strange chamber!
Moreover, the color of the beast cores were all different. From grade one to grade eight, there were all of them!
There were eight white grade one beast cores, seven grade two yellow beast cores, six grade three red beast cores, five grade four green beast cores, four grade five light blue beast cores, three grade six dark blue beast cores There were two level seven golden beast cores, and one level eight purple beast core.
These beast cores, from high to low, were arranged in numbers like 87654321. It was very magical!
There was only one beast core in the body of a mutated beast. This was almost a pattern, but why was there 36 beast cores in the body of this giant earthworm?
“Little Dragon, do you know why there are so many beast cores?”Yang Tian couldn’t understand, so he could only ask the little azure dragon.
“Squeak!”
The Little Azure Dragon indicated that it did not know either.
This giant earthworm was not among the mutated beast species to begin with, but it had actually mutated, and there was not only one beast core in its body..
This made Yang Tian guess that perhaps the Ys virus had not stopped mutating long ago, as the scientists had said.
This was a big deal!
Yang Tian immediately used his martial artist assistant to shoot a video, and then encrypted it and stored it in the martial artist assistant. Perhaps in the future, this video could be used as evidence.
After shooting the video, the light was already very dim. Yang Tian used his knife to pick out thirty-six beast cores from the cavity and put them into his backpack.
Getting 36 beast cores in one go, together with the beast cores he got from Wang Kun’s backpack, could be considered a great harvest of beast cores.
The beast cores he got from killing the wolf pack with Ma Ke last time could not compare to what he got this time.
After the giant earthworm died, it emitted a stronger stench than before. Yang Tian’s body was covered in blood. Now that he was dry, his body was very uncomfortable. He had to find a place to take a bath.
Yang Tian carried his backpack and walked out of the forest. After walking for an hour, he entered a forest with a lower terrain.
At this time, the sky was already dark.
The weather was better on this night. The sky was full of stars, and the light on the ground was not very dim.
After Yang Tian entered the small forest, the sound of rustling could be heard continuously from the bushes. There were also the howls of various exotic beasts. Some of the exotic beasts that were resting here were ‘disturbed’by Yang Tian and the two beasts, all of them fled in panic.
There were no exotic beasts above rank three here. Just the aura emitted by the little unicorn alone was enough to intimidate these exotic beasts.
“Pu!”
A black-backed wolf dashed out and wanted to escape from Yang Tian’s side, but it was cut down by Yang Tian’s saber.
This black-backed wolf that was killed was the dinner for Yang Tian, the little azure dragon, and the little unicorn.
In an era where exotic beasts were rampant, martial artists would never lack for food when they lived in the wild.
Yang Tian used the flashlight in his hand to illuminate the forest for a while. He found the lowest terrain in the forest, squatted down, and used his fingers to pick up the wet soil on the ground.
Following that, Yang Tian directly used his hand to dig a pit on the ground that was about two meters in diameter and one meter deep. Before the pit was dug, the water had already seeped out.
After digging the pit for an hour, the water became clear.
Then, Yang Tian took off his leather armor, clothes, and pants. He used the stainless steel basin that he carried with him to water it. He washed his hair and body and changed into a set of clean clothes. Then, he began to deal with the wolf corpses and made dinner..
