Twisted evolution, absorbs Yin-type energy, completely eliminates the Yin-type weakness, and has a high chance of evolving into a new species. The lowest grade is Excellent.
Hmm?
This was the first time Gao Peng had seen two options for promotion. In the past, there had only been one option.
Why was that? Gao Peng began to think about this question.
He suddenly remembered something the examiner had said. "… It's only been able to persist until now because of its strong willpower."
"Strong willpower," Gao Peng muttered to himself, looking seriously at the Red River Ape in front of him for the first time.
The Red River Ape lying in the cage lifted its head weakly, its dark eyes meeting Gao Peng's gaze.
Deep in its eyes was a strong desire, a plea.
Its burning gaze was full of emotion.
"Why are you … so persistent?" Gao Peng said to the Red River Ape, then laughed self-deprecatingly. "How can it understand what I'm saying? It's just a normal monster."
Suddenly, the Red River Ape used all its strength to get up. It put its head on the edge of the cage, its dark eyes looking at Gao Peng with desire. Its hands grabbed the bars tightly, and it used all its strength to roar, "Awoo!"
"Awoo!"
"Awoo!"
.....
The room was sealed, and the Red River Ape's roar echoed in the room. Finally, the sound became weaker and weaker.
The roar seemed to have drained the Red River Ape of its remaining strength. It fell down in the cage with a thud, its eyes looking at Gao Peng with deep emotion.
Seeing that Gao Peng did not respond, the emotion in its eyes gradually died out, becoming gray and dim …
"Alright, I will definitely help you evolve," Gao Peng promised. He didn't know why, but it was as if he was possessed. Perhaps it was because he had never seen such a pair of eyes with such strong emotions, or perhaps it was the arrogance of a young man, or perhaps … he simply did not want to disappoint this pair of eyes.
He didn't know if the Red River Ape understood, but its eyes slowly closed in exhaustion.
In any case, if he wanted to get a Monster Breeder certificate, he would have to raise the grade of this Red River Ape. There was no conflict between the two.
After looking at both options, Gao Peng finally decided to choose the latter.
The subtitles dimmed like the moon in the mirror, and then a new line of words appeared.
[Pathological Distortion Evolution]: Consume 250 grams of Black Candle Grass every meal, three meals a day for three consecutive days. He then took out an Elite Undead Monster Core Crystal x1 and fed it to the Red River Ape. He then threw the Red River Ape into a pool of sulfuric acid. The sulfuric acid solution needs to be specially prepared. It needs to be mixed with concentrated sulfuric acid and water according to a certain ratio. At the same time, it needs to add three grams of luminous powder, one gram of skull mushroom, three grams of dried grass …
What would the Red River Ape evolve into? Gao Peng had a bad feeling about this.
Just by hearing the names of these ingredients, one could tell that they weren't anything good. There was also the Undead Monster Core Crystal. That wasn't something that could be eaten casually. Even a healthy monster would fall ill if it accidentally ate the Undead Monster Core Crystal. There might even be more serious consequences.
It wasn't that Gao Peng had to choose the latter, but that he didn't have enough funds.
The materials needed for the first method were too expensive. It had already exceeded the quota set by the assessment.
Which was easier: to continue painting on a painting that was already dirty, or to remove the dirt from the painting and redo it? Relatively speaking, the former was easier.
In comparison, although the materials needed for the latter were not cheap, it was still within the quota provided by the association for free.
He hoped that he could succeed. Otherwise, if he failed, he might end up with a huge debt.
After hearing what Gao Peng needed, the staff in charge of distributing the materials looked at Gao Peng strangely. Was he preparing to murder the Red River Ape …
Gao Peng ignored the strange looks from the others. After receiving the materials, he directly locked himself and the Red River Ape in the room.
For several days, Gao Peng did not go out. There was a bathroom in the room, and all his food and drink were delivered through a small window.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. After eating Black Candle Grass for three consecutive days, the Red River Ape became very energetic. Its eyes were bright, and its fur was shiny. The swollen areas had also subsided a lot.
Black Candle Grass had the effect of a stimulant. After eating so much stimulant for three consecutive days, the Red River Ape's mental and physical state had probably reached a temporary peak.
Taking a deep breath, Gao Peng opened the Red River Ape's cage. In fact, this kind of behavior had a certain degree of danger. Although the Red River Ape was gentle and had been trained to eliminate its bestial nature, after being subjected to so many experiments, it was hard to guarantee that its personality would not be distorted. In this sealed room, Gao Peng had nowhere to run.
The Red River Ape looked blankly at the open cage door, then looked outside. Then, it carefully lifted its right leg and tentatively pointed outside the cage. Finally, when it found that Gao Peng was not angry and even encouraged it to come out, the Red River Ape grinned excitedly. It climbed out of the cage and hugged Gao Peng in high spirits.
Its big hand patted Gao Peng's back. Only then did the Red River Ape release Gao Peng and sit obediently in front of Gao Peng.
Gao Peng pointed to the transparent blue liquid that had already been mixed. "Lie in there obediently."
The Red River Ape cleverly plucked a handful of its fur, then twisted its butt and climbed to the edge of the bathtub to throw the fur in.
The dark red fur floated into the liquid, twisted, curled up, and finally disappeared without a trace.
The Red River Ape opened its mouth like a human.
It looked at the liquid in the bathtub, then looked at Gao Peng.
Then, it climbed in front of Gao Peng and sat down obediently, looking innocently at Gao Peng …
Gao Peng did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Perhaps the Red River Ape had seen him testing the corrosiveness of sulfuric acid when he was mixing the liquid yesterday.
Who said these monsters were stupid?
Gao Peng was speechless, but in order to continue the experiment, he had to trick the Red River Ape.
"Young man." Gao Peng pressed his right hand on the Red River Ape's forehead.
"Ho ho." The Red River Ape looked curiously at the hand on its forehead, its eyes becoming cross-eyed.
"I can give you strength, and you only need to pay with courage," Gao Peng said mysteriously.
Because there was no one around, he would become a little chuunibyou when there was no one around …
Sigh, could the Red River Ape understand such complicated words?
Gao Peng did not know if it understood. It hesitated for a moment, then gently pulled Gao Peng's hand away from its forehead. Then, it got up from the ground and slowly walked to the bathtub.
It turned its head to look at Gao Peng, grinned, and jumped into the bathtub with a plop.
This bathtub was also special. It was two meters high, three meters long, and two meters wide.
Gao Peng quickly took two steps forward. The bathtub was transparent, and the situation inside could be seen clearly.
The Red River Ape that jumped into the bathtub was completely submerged in the liquid. It was so experienced.
As a test subject, it was so experienced that it jumped in on its own accord. This was too funny.
Gao Peng wanted to laugh, but he suddenly could not. It was as if his heart was stuffed with a lump of iron.
He wanted to turn his head, but he found that his legs were filled with lead. They were heavy, and he could not move.
She could only watch helplessly.
The fur on the Red River Ape's body began to shrink inward, like a ball of fur.
Then, a large amount of black liquid came out from the gaps in the Red River Ape's fur and floated on the water surface. Then, it turned into thick smoke and spewed upward. The whole room was filled with thick black smoke.
The fire alarm in the room suddenly went off. The red light flashed, and the ear-piercing sound of the alarm was extremely sharp.
In less than ten seconds, the door was opened with a bang. A large group of people stood outside the door. At the front were two people wearing firefighter uniforms and holding fire extinguishers.
They looked at the bathtub that was spewing black smoke and the unknown black object that was curled up in the liquid.
Where was the fire?
"Uh … sorry to disturb you."
"Ahaha, maybe there's a problem with the fire alarm," another staff member said.
At this time, the higher-ups of the Monster Breeder Association had also heard the news and rushed over. They saw the group of people standing in front of the door and the room that was spewing black smoke. They frowned and said, "What's going on?"
Someone came up and explained the situation to him. As he listened, the higher-up's expression became uncertain. "You're saying that this is caused by someone cultivating a monster?"
The crowd parted. The higher-up walked forward and finally saw the situation in the room.
There was a bathtub in the center of the room. It was filled with a dark blue liquid. He could vaguely see a blurry figure curled up in the middle of the liquid.
The thick black smoke was spewing out from the bathtub.
However, the black smoke gradually became less and less.
The liquid in the bathtub also gradually turned pure black.
The bathtub fell into silence, as if everything was over.
"Did the experiment fail?" Some other contestants were also alarmed. They stood outside the door and gloated.
"My goodness, this young man is making too much of a ruckus." The fatty who had been sitting next to Gao Peng couldn't help but sigh. Just by being able to make such a big commotion, he was no ordinary person.
Suddenly, the water in the bathtub started to ripple. Water splashed out from the sides of the bathtub. It was as if a terrifying giant beast was hiding under the dark water.
Splash —
Suddenly, the water started to churn. A dark and ferocious part slowly floated up.
"What, what is that?!" Some contestants screamed and took two steps back in fear.
The others weren't as frightened as him. They just stared at the scene with wide eyes.
First, a pitch black skull appeared. In the center of its sunken eye sockets was a ball of faint blue fire. Its ferocious canine teeth protruded outwards. There was no doubt that it had a terrifying bite force.
It put its hands on the sides of the bathtub, pulled outwards, and jumped out.
Boom!
It landed on the ground. It was as if the ground was shaking.
The crowd finally saw the full appearance of the monster.
It was two and a half meters tall, and its thick joints had a dark luster. Its skin, flesh, and internal organs had long been corroded, leaving only pure bones. There was only a layer of fine and sticky red threads between the bones that glued some joints together, like steel wires pulled on a motorized shaft.
There were only two balls of faint blue fire in its empty eye sockets. They were filled with despair and coldness.
