Traveling through ancient times to survive

Blood gushed out from where the giant rat's claws were broken, and the heart-wrenching pain made it raise its head and let out a shrill cry.

Green Vine's anxious voice entered Zhao Qing's mind: "Oh no, it's calling its people, Master, stop it!"

Zhao Qing's face changed instantly and he quickly threw the knife out. After all, everyone knew how fertile rats were and no one wanted to be surrounded by rats all over the mountains.

The new knife hit the giant rat's head like a javelin, cutting into its head as easily as cutting butter, and the giant rat's shrill screams stopped abruptly.

Zhao Qing immediately stepped forward and devoured the giant rat. Without time to check the energy value, Zhao Qing picked up the knife and ran wildly because he could hear a lot of squeaking sounds behind him.

By the time Zhao Qing shook off the pursuing army of rats and stopped panting, half an hour had passed.

"Master, this is so exciting!"

Zhao Qing ignored Lu Teng's excited voice. She reopened the mall to check the balance, only to see that the balance had risen to 420, and a new record appeared below the balance.

[Has absorbed the first-stage late-stage mutant rat, energy value +400]

Zhao Qing pinched his chin and thought, the mouse's level is the late stage of the first stage, so what is the level of the green vine? Zhao Qing's eyes glanced at the green vine around his waist, and the green vine trembled all over, and a chill rushed into his heart.

Green Vine was horrified. Who was coveting it?

"Master, let's go quickly. It's not safe here. I sense a malicious force!"

Zhao Qing sighed silently. A rat of this size was only worth 400 points. This vine was probably not worth much either. So forget it.

Green Ivy paused in fear and increased its perception output. It was strange. Was the malice it had just felt an illusion? How could it suddenly disappear?

It apologized embarrassedly: "Master, I'm sorry, maybe I sensed it wrong just now, it's still safe here."

Zhao Qing looked at the green vine with a complicated expression. The talent of this vine was really enviable. Not only did it develop intelligence, in addition to the ability to control plants, it also had an additional ability to sense danger.

"Xiao Teng, besides being able to control plants, do you have any other abilities?"

"No, Master." Green Ivy's puzzled voice sounded in Zhao Qing's mind, as if it had misunderstood something. It panicked again, "Master, don't think I'm useless. I'll have new abilities when I level up again."

"What's your current level?"

Green Ivy was puzzled: "What is a level? I only know that when the energy in my body is full, my body will become very uncomfortable. After I get through it, the energy pool in my body will become much larger, and my abilities will also be enhanced. Sometimes I will even gain new abilities."

"So how many times has this happened to you?"

Green Ivy explained obediently: "Since I became conscious, it seems that this has happened three times. I will have a new ability next time. Master, in addition to being able to control my own body, I can control the growth or withering of any plant that is entangled by my body. But the next level will be different. I can vaguely sense that in the next level I can temporarily possess any plant with my consciousness, and I can control them as long as they are within a ten-mile radius of the main root."

So that's how it is, Zhao Qing thought to himself. With his current strength, he can only deal with mutants below level three. If he encounters more than level three, he will have to run away. But for safety, it's best to practice with only level one first.

"Then you are a level three alien plant, Xiao Teng. How about I give you a name? All intelligent creatures should have their own names."

"Thank you, master, for the name." Green Vine was overjoyed. Now that it has been named, the master will not swallow it casually in the future, right?

Zhao Qing, who was not well-educated, thought hard for a while and decided: "When I first dug you out, you were all green, so from now on, you will be called Xiaolu."

"Okay, master, Xiaolu understands." Lu Teng, who was also illiterate, didn't find anything wrong.

Since Xiaolu didn't know that he had the ability to sense danger, maybe he had some other abilities that he hadn't discovered yet? Zhao Qing continued to question him.

"Little Green, can you communicate with other humans like me?"

"Not all humans can, Master. I can only communicate with conscious plants or intelligent creatures with higher mental powers."

"Do you know the territories of other mutant creatures?"

"I don't know. These two mutants came to fight me when I just gained consciousness, and they are not far from my territory, so I know the location of their territory." As if feeling that he did not help his master, Xiaolu added, "Master, I can help you find other mutants in the next level."

"How long until your next upgrade?"

Xiaolu's voice was filled with guilt: "Master, I am injured now. It will probably take a little time for me to upgrade."

Zhao Qing was not fooled: "I think it's not just a little bit, it's billions of bits!"

"Haha, Master, if you can give Xiaolu a little help, I can upgrade even faster."

"What help?"

Xiaolu cautiously probed: "Things that contain energy, such as the corpses of mutant creatures."

Zhao Qing lowered his voice and deliberately showed a look of desire: "You are thinking of a good thing. I, your master, lack energy more. Sometimes when I look at you, I can't help but want to swallow you."

Xiaolu was frightened and almost cried: "Master, don't swallow me, Xiaolu is wrong, Xiaolu doesn't want anything."

After teasing Xiaolu, Zhao Qing opened the mall panel and searched for the most basic cultivation techniques. It was so difficult to earn energy points, so it was impossible to get good techniques.

Zhao Qing looked carefully and found that the most basic skills were all above one thousand points. Zhao Qing wanted to buy them immediately, but unfortunately he was short of money and the balance did not allow him to buy them.

By the way, do I have the qualifications to practice? Zhao Qing suddenly thought that if I couldn't practice the skills I bought, wouldn't it be a waste of a lot of energy points?

Zhao Qing asked Shangcheng: "Shangcheng, there are examples of mutations in animals and plants here, so are there mutations among humans?"

Still a rigid reply.

[This question is out of search, please ask again. ]

The same thing again, is the mall broken? Zhao Qing complained silently, and then patiently asked a new question.

"Mall, can I practice?"

This time I finally got a different response.

【Please use the spirit-testing plate to test. 】

Zhao Qing quickly searched for the soul-testing disk. The cheapest soul-testing disk required 350 points. The light intensity of the soul-testing disk could be used to roughly estimate the talent of the tester. Different colors displayed on the soul-testing disk represented different talent directions.

Of course, those that can specifically measure talent values ​​are even more expensive, and Zhao Qing can't afford them now. Of course, she doesn't need them. She just needs to know whether she can practice and what direction she should practice.
