My Genes Can Evolve Limitlessly - Chapter 44
Chapter 44: The Underground Palace Ruins
After the two added each other as friends, Lu Yuan said goodbye and left.
As usual, Lu Yuan went to the mall to replenish the necessities for the next trip to the Land of Origin before returning to his rented house.
Ma Lingling’s room door was open, and there was the sound of things being flipped inside.
Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and walked over.
The moment he entered, Lu Yuan saw Ma Lingling and Li Qinghe packing up.
“What’s wrong?” Lu Yuan was stunned.
Li Qinghe glanced at Lu Yuan and said with a smile, “Little brother Yuan is back? Sister Ma is planning to leave this place. ”
Lu Yuan looked at Ma Lingling.
Ma Lingling’s eyes were red and swollen. She smiled at Lu Yuan with unspeakable bitterness. “Wayne’s gone. There’s no point for me to stay here alone. I’m going to see Wayne’s hometown first.”
Lu Yuan did not say much. He nodded. “Then I wish you all the best.”
…
Ma Lingling smiled and placed the group photo on the desk in a corner of the suitcase. She also carefully kept the plastic rose with the paint removed.
“I’ll help.” Lu Yuan stepped forward and smiled. “I’ll help too.”
Ma Lingling didn’t have many things, so she quickly packed them into a few boxes.
After that, Lu Yuan went downstairs with a few boxes and the three of them came to the entrance of the community.
Ma Lingling hailed a hover car and turned to look at Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe. She smiled.
“I’m leaving. I hope that you two will have a smooth life in the future and leave this hell as soon as possible.”
Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe also nodded.
As he watched the hover car leave, Li Qinghe sighed softly and took a puff of her cigarette.”
“Phew … I’ve always known that the lives of people in the slums are worthless. I didn’t expect to see someone beside me die.”
Lu Yuan nodded, then smiled.”
“Sister Qinghe, I’ve earned over four hundred thousand this time. It’s enough for us to move.”
When Li Qinghe heard Lu Yuan’s words, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
“More than 400,000, how many materials would that be? Didn’t little brother Yuan just awaken not long ago? You could actually bring out so many materials? You’re already this strong? It seems like I’ve underestimated you. ”
Li Qinghe’s thoughts whirred. She looked at Lu Yuan in disbelief and said,
“Four hundred thousand? That many? I didn’t know genetic warriors could earn so much money!”
Lu Yuan smiled. “I’m pretty strong, so it’s easier for me to earn money. Besides, I’m quite lucky this time. I got something valuable.”
Li Qinghe nodded and said with a smile, “I don’t know much about genetic warriors either. However, little brother Yuan, you’ve become successful now. You can earn so much money. No wonder you dared to tell me that you’ll pay for your meals.”
“Let’s not talk about this for now,” Lu Yuan said with a smile. “Let’s leave the slums.”
Li Qinghe was silent for a moment, then sighed. “Little brother Yuan, I’m not done with my business yet. Why don’t you leave first?”
Lu Yuan frowned, “How can that be? If you have anything to say, tell me. I might be able to help you. There’s also that strange shadow. The slums are dangerous, and I’m worried about you. ”
Li Qinghe sized Lu Yuan up and revealed a half-smile.
“What’s wrong?” Lu Yuan was a little embarrassed. “What’s wrong?”
“Do you know what it is? Little brother Yuan, you can’t help me. ”
When Lu Yuan saw Li Qinghe’s expression, the corners of his mouth twitched, but he did not dare to ask further.
“In that case, I’ll wait for you to finish,” he said.
Li Qinghe blew out a ring of smoke and her gaze softened. She smiled and said,”
“You really want to take me out of here?”
“Of course, my sister is the only one who cares about me now. If it wasn’t for you, I might not have been able to survive in the slums. Of course, I can’t leave you alone.”
“Alright, I’ll get it done as soon as possible. I haven’t slept since I came back. I’m so tired. ”
……
Back in his room, Lu Yuan opened the battle network again.
This time, he was rich and had the confidence to look at other potions.
The healing potions that he had bought previously had been used in battle.
There was only one bottle of good quality left.
Lu Yuan bought another bottle of good quality.
At the same time, he also bought a high-quality speed potion.
He also bought two bottles of high-quality defensive potions.
Not only that, Lu Yuan also bought two bottles of high-quality strength enhancing potion.
The healing potion was 30,000, the speed potion was 50,000, and the two defense potions were 70,000. The price of the strength potion was the same as the defense potion, which was 70,000 for two bottles.
It added up to 220,000 Yuan.
Other than these, Lu Yuan also bought some other refined items that could be used in the Land of Origin.
Maybe he could use it at some point.
He spent another 150,000 Yuan.
In total, Lu Yuan had spent 370,000. The money in his pocket shrank again, leaving him with only 70,000.
However, Lu Yuan was still very satisfied.
Thinking back to a few days ago, his monthly living expenses were only a few hundred Yuan, and he even had to rely on sister Qinghe to provide for his meals.
A few days ago, he would never have thought that he would be able to spend hundreds of thousands of Yuan so easily.
……
In the small market of the Sandcliff Underground Palace in the Land of Origin.
Lu Yuan walked out from the entrance of the underground palace.
As soon as he came out, someone in the market greeted Lu Yuan with a smile.
“Lu Yuan, you’re out again?”
“Brother Lu, what did you gain this time?”
“I’m also very envious seeing you bring out so many fierce beast materials every time. It’s a pity that I don’t have a defense as strong as yours. ”
There were humans, elves, cat people, and dog-headed people among them.
Lu Yuan smiled and nodded in response. He came to Li Luo’s stall.
Li Luo’s eyes lit up when he saw Lu Yuan, and he revealed a bright smile.”
“Mr. Lu, you’re here again?”
“Well, give me a price.”
Lu Yuan poured out the materials in the battle rune space and piled them up into a small mountain.
“The black striped snake’s skin and poison sac. Mr. Lu, you’re already able to kill the black striped snake? The black striped snake is already a vicious beast that’s close to the inner circle of the underground palace, right?”
When Li Luo saw Lu Yuan’s materials, he could not help but widen his eyes and exclaim.
Lu Yuan smiled.”
“My luck isn’t bad, I encountered a few black striped snakes that were alone.”
Black striped snakes usually lived in groups. Their strength alone was at 50% to 80% normal tempering. They were very strong.
If they were attacked by the snakes, it would be no safer than falling into the ant nest.
Therefore, the number of genetic warriors capable of killing black striped snakes was extremely small.
Lu Yuan was only able to kill a black striped snake when he encountered one that was alone.
In the past few days, Lu Yuan had entered the Land of Origin several times.
With his strong defensive ability, he was able to run amuck in the underground palace and obtain a lot of spiritual crystals and materials every time.
As for his gene tempering, it had already reached 39%.
This had already surpassed Zhuo Ming and Wen Ni.
Up until now, it had not even been a month since he had awakened. One could imagine how fast his progress was.
Due to the continuous improvement of his strength and the high-quality potions he had, Lu Yuan could explore the underground palace more freely.
Every day, he went deeper and deeper into the underground palace, and the ferocious beasts he killed became more and more powerful.
The number of berserk beasts he hunted every day was also increasing.
Once a day, he would leave the underground palace and go to Li Luo’s place to sell materials.
As he went there more and more times, Lu Yuan gradually became familiar with the genetic warriors in the small market.
The genetic warriors who often hung out in the market all knew that there was a very young human genetic warrior who could hunt and kill a large number of berserk beasts every day and bring back a large amount of materials.
In addition, Lu Yuan would encounter genetic Warriors from time to time in the underground palace.
Those genetic warriors had also seen Lu Yuan’s powerful strength. When they were chatting in the market, the news naturally spread.
In an instant, Lu Yuan gained a certain reputation in this market.
Because Lu Yuan used the black iron body, his skin turned black iron, and he was a guardian. He was even given the title of ‘Black Knight’.
1
One had to know that only those genetic warriors with decent strength would be recognized in the small circle and be given a title.
This was a symbol of strength.
The circle in this small market clearly regarded Lu Yuan as a powerful expert.
“If you want to kill a black striped snake, it’s not as simple as luck. You can’t do it without strength.”
“3021 crystals in total. It’s all here. Mr. Lu, please count it.”
Li Luo took out the spirit crystal.
In the past few days, he had earned more than 30,000 spirit crystals. However, most of the spirit crystals had been invested into the evolution Cube.
After this evolution, he would still need to use it next time, so he might as well recharge it first.
He left about 10,000 spiritual crystals for cultivation and absorption of spiritual power.
Lu Yuan took the spirit crystal and put it into the battle rune space.
“No need. We’ve worked together so many times. I believe you.”
Upon hearing Lu Yuan’s words, Li Luo immediately revealed a smile.
Anyone would be happy to be recognized, especially by a strong person.
“Oh right! Mr. Lu, I have some news that you might be interested in. ”
“Eh? What’s the news?”
Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Luo with some curiosity.
“It’s like this. Someone found a ruin in the northern inner circle of this underground palace area, and many people are planning to go there to take a look.”
“Ruins?!”
Lu Yuan’s pupils shrank and he looked surprised.
In the Land of Origin, the place with the most treasures was not a treasure chest that appeared randomly.
Instead, it was in a ruin that would appear out of nowhere.
No one knew how the ruins of the Land of Origin had appeared.
Unlike the treasure chest, the ruins seemed to contain items left behind by other civilizations.
There were all kinds of dangers inside, but there were also knowledge and treasures left behind by that civilization.
The discovery of every relic would cause genetic Warriors to go crazy over it.
He didn’t expect to find another ruin in the Sandcliff Underground Palace!
Lu Yuan’s heart beat faster.
He decided to go and take a look.
