Astral Cockroach

#337 - L6 Mountain Master

While Banbu was still worried about Baizhu's failure, he never expected that he would suddenly usher in a gene evolution.

It was only the beginning of September, and the interval since the last sleep evolution was less than three years.

Baba had checked and only allowed him to sleep peacefully, refusing to disclose the probability of failure.

Banbu was a little panicked and went to sleep with trepidation.

He woke up in a daze.

Distant memories, familiar feelings, the feeling when he awakened his Origin Power in the jungle and was promoted to an L1 elementary warrior: the carapace was thick and clumsy, and due to insufficient nutrients, the muscles under the carapace were severely atrophied, as if only an empty shell remained.

The energy in his body was completely exhausted, and he couldn't muster any strength in his limbs.

A large number of brain cells died, and his head was empty.

As soon as his thoughts ran slightly, his soul consciousness became blurred.

"Banbu? Are you awake?"

Shu Dawang's surprised shout came from outside the cave.

A black shadow flashed, darted into the cave, quickly opened the drawer, took out a can of energy drink, activated his metal ability, opened the upper drawer, and a box of sweet compressed biscuits fell to the ground.

Shu Dawang keenly sensed Banbu's current extremely weak state, opened the energy drink, and brought it to his mouth.

After drinking a can of drink, Shu Dawang quickly opened the compressed biscuits and fed them to Banbu piece by piece.

Shu Dawang shouted: "Banbu urgently needs fresh meat."

"I'll go!" Daxiong, who was guarding outside the cave, looked inside, shouted after hearing this, and ran frantically down the mountain with a clatter.

Shu Dawang continued to shout: "Jinzhu, go down the mountain quickly and bring Baba up to check Banbu's condition."

"Oh." Jinzhu quickly ran down the mountain.

Shu Dawang was the only mature, stable, and reliable member of Lizhu Peak.

In times of crisis, without saying much, he immediately found the most correct way to deal with it.

If it were replaced by Baizhu, or other members on the mountain, they would probably be so frightened that they would be at a loss, panicking and not knowing what to do, and then grabbing Banbu, who only had a breath left, and asking him desperately what to do.

… …

When Jinzhu brought Baba up the mountain, Banbu had recovered some mobility.

He had eaten a whole box of compressed biscuits in a few moments, and was now slowly drinking a can of energy drink.

"Banbu, it was the talent ability of the cockroach insect race that saved your life!" Baba said, starting to scan and check Banbu, and then said: "This time you need to recuperate for at least half a month…"

While talking, she gave a set of plans for the next diet and daily life, and at the same time, she deeply analyzed the genetic changes after evolution.

"Banbu, your genetic changes are similar to Shu Dawang's, and many Origin Power gene segments that are not recorded in the database have appeared.

Feel carefully, has the rate of Origin Power generation in the second heart position increased?"

Banbu immersed himself in his thoughts, preparing to observe.

Baba directly gave the answer, saying: "The conversion efficiency has increased by about 10%.

Currently, you are in an extremely weak state.

If you recover, the increase is expected to be around 25%."

"Understood." Banbu asked: "I must have slept for a long time this time, right?"

Shu Dawang said: "29 days, one day short of a month, almost…"

"Isn't it okay?" Banbu asked: "What about Baizhu? Is he okay?"

Baba said: "I recently discovered that a low-temperature environment can inhibit the transformation rate.

I asked Baizhu to hide on the top of Lizhu Peak.

He is working hard to cultivate the martial arts of the strengthening system that I deduced for him.

If the evolution time can be delayed until next spring, the risk of failure can be controlled within 10%.

The longer it is delayed, the smaller the risk."

"Is there such a saying?" Banbu asked: "What about me and Shu Dawang?"

Baba said: "You are all the same.

Gene modification is still ongoing.

It is recommended to hide in a low-temperature environment."

"… …" Banbu said: "I just completed the evolution, no need to rush.

Shu Dawang, you should settle on the top of the peak for two years."

As he was talking, Daxiong dragged back a hooked mountain python.

The other members of Lizhu Peak followed up the mountain one after another, concerned about Banbu's condition.

Shu Dawang immediately issued an order: "Jinzhu, help cut it up.

Zizhu, don't just stand there stupidly, help!"

Now, the bamboo rat warriors on the mountain are all equipped with a military dagger.

Jinzhu and Zizhu received the order, pulled out their daggers, and began to skin and cut the meat, sending portions into the cave.

With half a hooked mountain python in his belly, Banbu's empty head felt much better.

Brain cells were rapidly dividing and multiplying, his thinking ability was rapidly recovering, and the fatigue and weakness of his soul gradually disappeared.

After the brain, it was the internal organs, and finally the limbs and bones.

Seeing that Banbu was out of danger, Shu Dawang and Daxiong and the others dispersed one after another.

According to Baba's suggestion, Shu Dawang and Baizhu will stay on the top of the mountain for two years and no longer participate in the work down the mountain.

Life is at stake, and Baizhu, who always likes to be lazy, did not dare to neglect, desperately practicing martial arts and strengthening his physique through exercise.

Banbu was the same.

He ate and drank well for a month, adjusting his state to the best, and temporarily lived on the top of Lizhu Peak, rarely going down the mountain again.

After careful observation, after one evolution, his overall physique had changed, and the Origin Power produced by the magical pattern of the second heart every day increased to the equivalent of about 125 Origin Stones.

It was still slow.

Even if it was increased to 150 in the next evolution, it was still not enough.

Banbu did not regret spending a huge amount of Origin Stones to light up and activate them.

On the contrary, he couldn't help but start racking his brains to figure out how to earn Origin Stones on a large scale and light up and activate more magical patterns.

Baba's previous words about the "Heart of a Demigod" were full of忽悠(hū yōu) flavor, the purpose was to observe and collect data, but what she said was not false at all.

Converting Origin Power into matter can be done by many Origin Power lifeforms that have awakened elemental abilities.

Converting materials into Origin Power cannot be done by seventh-level technological civilizations and Dominator-level lifeforms.

This is an ability that only "Gods" possess.

The essence of Origin Power lifeforms is that genetic genes are interspersed with Origin Power genes, and cosmic-level life is also the same.

The essence of evolution is the increase in the number of Origin Power genes.

Origin Power genes must consume Origin Power to operate normally.

Whether it is an Origin Power lifeform or a cosmic-level lifeform, if they leave the Origin Power environment and cannot replenish it in time, the Origin Power genes will begin to decline, manifesting as rapid aging of the body, and in severe cases, death.

Even the powerful Dominator realm cannot escape the shackles of Origin Power.

Is it powerful to traverse the peak of the universe?

No matter how powerful human warriors are, they don't dare to leave the spaceship easily.

When driving spaceships, they will not easily go to those star fields with barren Origin Power.

Heart of a Demigod?

It is still very weak now, but Banbu is optimistic about its development potential: lighting up and activating all magical patterns, perhaps one day he can truly break free from the shackles of Origin Power.

… …

In the autumn of last year, Banbu terminated the transaction with the Xuesong Cockroach King.

In the autumn of this year, he exchanged 5 servings of Youzhu Bamboo Rice for 10 ordinary Longevity Peach seeds in one go.

After being promoted to L6 Mountain Lord, he chose one to cultivate as his Life Seed without hesitation.

Changsheng County has very harsh and strict supervision over every ordinary Longevity Peach seed.

Things cannot be used casually.

When each seed is used, which warrior on which mountain peak of which mountain range is used, it must be reported to Changsheng County.

Banbu did not want to cause disputes over this matter.

The other 9 seeds, Yancu Banmao used one, and the others were given priority to the members of Lizhu Peak, followed by Huozhu Mountain, and then Xiangfei Peak.

Luling Peak of Jinping Mountain Range, which is far away, will not be considered for the time being.

… …

Banbu's 18th year in spring.

Lizhu Peak, with bamboo all over the mountains, is still lush and green.

On the southeast side of Lizhu Peak, pear trees are the main trees planted.

More than ten years have passed, and these pear trees have grown to scale.

The pear blossoms are in full bloom.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, it is like an ice field and snow region.

The breeze is gentle, and the fragrance of flowers rides the wind and permeates the entire peak.

Bees are buzzing, busy collecting nectar in the forest.

Every year, Lizhu Peak opens up orchards along the mountains to the southeast and northwest, sowing ordinary fruit trees such as pear trees, apricot trees, chestnuts, walnuts, and citrus.

Growing year by year, slowly, it can meet the needs of the bee colonies controlled by Xiangfei.

Xiangpu is now the Mountain Lord, and the number of combat worker bees has exceeded 100.

Among them, 24 combat worker bees have the ability to release flames, and the combat power of the bee race has initially manifested.

There is no need to trouble the warriors of other mountain peaks to help, and even Xiangpu does not need to come out in person.

The combat worker bees can lead the bee colony by themselves, carrying the beehives, and go to Qinggang Mountain Range, Tiedao Mountain Range, Hongju Mountain Range, and even Chuirong County to collect the nectar of God-given seeds.

They act separately and are very efficient.

Due to the powerful effect of Youzhu Bamboo Rice, the three major mountain ranges and one county now have a total of 11 God-given seeds, all of which bloom in spring and can collect honey for free every year to make royal jelly.

There is a surplus of royal jelly, and Datou followed suit, cultivating 25 combat ant soldiers.

Among them, 10 were cultivated after it was promoted to Mountain Lord, using Yuzhu Bamboo Rice to strengthen the soul, and they are very intelligent.

They can completely break away from Datou and direct the ant colony to do some simple work such as mowing grass, drying hay, and managing biogas digesters.
