The highly efficient energy collection system was absorbing tremendous spirit energy from the crystal veins deep inside the underground rock.

‘The intersecting “grapevines” were decorated with heavy fruits.

Every fruit was the size of a watermelon, and they seemed to be carved out of yellow crystals. They were glittering and translucent, and their fragrance assailed one’s nostrils.

The fruits were so plump that it seemed as if they would explode with just a light touch, pouring out a viscous liquid of gold.

Meng Chao secretly clicked his tongue.

These “yellow crystal balls” were the best of the mandrake fruits, the golden fruits.

Leaf had once told him that each mandrake tree could only give birth to one golden fruit in each growth cycle.

‘When this golden fruit was still being nurtured, it would unreasonably take away more than half of the mandrake tree’s nutrients.

Other mandrake fruits would not be able to compete with it.

The “grapevines” in front of him clearly did not have the mandrake tree’s towering trunk or the canopy that blocked out the sun.

However, within an inch of space, they were densely covered with “Supreme’golden fruits.

Just a casual sweep by Meng Chao, he saw at least hundreds of them.

It seemed that the man-faced spider was feeding on these golden fruits, which was why it was able to withstand the corrosion of the extremely long time that was sealed deep underground.
The biochemical technology to make these “Grape vines’ far exceeded Meng Chao’s imagination, and also exceeded the technical limits of Dragon City Agricultural University.

If the relevant technology could be introduced into dragon city.

‘The human-faced spider did not know the thousands of thoughts running through Meng Chao’s mind.

Waving his blade limbs, he picked and swallowed three golden fruits in a row.

Only then did his pale face become slightly better.

Then, he cut off another ‘grape vine’.

He let the ‘Liquid Gold’flowing out of the fracture drip into the wound on his back.

Judging from the intense fragrance that was emitting from the yellow juice, Meng Chao could tell that the pure natural plant juice contained more spiritual energy than the gene drugs that had been carefully refined by the biochemical laboratory of Dragon City.
It was simply a top-tier secret medicine that could bring the dead back to life.

As he expected, a layer of membrane as thin as a cicada’s wing quickly grew out of the shocking wound on the back of the human-faced spider.

At least, it had wrapped up all the organs that were exposed to the air.

After hastily cleaning up the wound, the human-faced spider let out a muffled groan.

However, it could not wait for further treatment and continued to lead Meng Chao deeper into the cave.

As the spiritual energy that permeated the cave became denser and denser, Meng Chao discovered a large number of crystal clusters and mineral veins that were directly exposed to the air on the cave walls. It was as if he had stepped into a colorful Crystal Palace.
Many semi-solidified substances that were between crystals and amber were actually sealed with a large number of totem beast corpses.

Around each corpse, the interior of the “Amber’was engraved with dense formulas and words.

It was as if a large amount of scientific research had been done on this specimen, and the data and conclusions were the same.

Meng Chao noticed that the liquid metal-like substances in the bodies of these “Research specimens” were much more abundant than the totem beasts he had seen in the outside world.
The erosion and modification of the liquid metal-like substances on the flesh and blood, as well as the appearance of the substance itself, were much more intense.

The totem beasts in the outside world could still roughly see the appearance of ferocious beasts.

Even if they were ferocious-looking monsters, they still had flesh and blood.

The enhancement of the liquid metal-like substances on the totem beasts was only limited to their tusks, sharp claws, carapace, big horns, bone tumors on their tails and other parts.
Or they would form layers upon layers of indestructible armor on the skin of totem beasts.

The liquid metal-like substances in the bodies of these specimens before him were like malignant tumors that had exploded. In a way that was baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, multiplying endlessly, and the boundaries were extremely unclear, they were inside the bodies of flesh and blood
that were as rotten as mud, they were crazily expanding their living space.

Meng Chao noticed that in the bodies of many totem beasts, the liquid metal-like substance had already tightly coiled around their spines, poking holes in their internal organs and even squeezing part of their cranial cavities, it had intercepted the information that the central nervous system transmitted
to the brain and the instructions that the brain sent out. In turn, it had devoured the will of the totem beasts.

However, the crazy expansion and uncontrolled self-organization of the liquid metal-like substance had also allowed Meng Chao to discover many interesting things.
“The liquid-like metals that I’ve seen in the past are like viscous mercury that is flowing slowly. At most, they will solidify into cold weapons such as sabers, Spears, and halberds, and simple structures such as multiple layers of armor.
“At first glance, the liquid-like metals on the specimens in front of me are proliferating crazily and completely out of control. They seem to be on the verge of devouring everything.

“However, if I observe them carefully, I will find that they have condensed into components that are even more delicate than clocks and watches deep inside their bodies. It is as if they are trying to create a weapon system and a power system that is highly efficient in the conversion of mass and energy
inside the body of a carbon-based creature!”

The scene in front of him made Meng Chao think of the Genesis warrior he had met on the night he had saved the ancient Dream Saintes.

At that time, the liquid metal-like substance in the body of a Genesis Warrior had also broken out of his body like a malignant tumor. At the same time that he had turned his master into a deformed and ugly monster.., he had wanted to create… a hot weapon such as an electromagnetic cannon.
“Could it be that this mysterious liquid metal-like substance is not only able to help carbon-based intelligent life forms form armor and swords.

“As long as it keeps training and upgrading and unlocks all its abilities, it can also form things such as ‘power furnaces, electromagnetic cannons, super computers’in its master’s body?

“However, the more complex and precise the structure, the harder it is to control. It also requires more energy and faces the problem of power consumption and heat dissipation that is harder to solve.

“With the constantly deteriorating intelligence level of the Tulan orcs, it is impossible for them to control cutting-edge technologies such as ‘power furnaces, electromagnetic cannons, supercomputers’. That is why their minds collapsed, and they became obsessed and became the origin warriors who lost
their sense of self!”

Meng Chao thought so.

Then, he saw dozens of origin warriors.

Of course, they were the specimens sealed in the ‘Crystal Amber.

‘Meng Chao was shocked when he was stared at by dozens of origin warriors who were lifeless.

Then, he found that these origin warriors had long lost their vitality.

‘Whether it was the blood and flesh cells or the liquid metal-like substances that seeped into the blood and flesh, they had all lost their vitality and tured into fossil-like existences.
This was the first time Meng Chao had studied these half-mechanical, half-flesh monsters at such a close distance.

As he expected, he found that they were beyond the limits of his imagination under the hideous, nightmare-like appearance.

The liquid-like metal substances in the bodies of the origins warriors were far more complicated, precise, and delicate than they were under normal conditions.

In other words, it was precisely because the liquid-like metal substances were not satisfied with the simple structures such as swords, axes, hammers, and armor, but wanted to condense into guns, electromagnetic cannons, and nuclear reactors.
The complexity of these sophisticated structures far exceeded the upper limit that a body of flesh and blood could bear. That was why their owners went crazy and collapsed.

“Why are there so many ‘specimens’of the origins warriors sealed here?”

Meng Chao’s mind raced. “Could it be that someone is conducting research on the ‘Controllable Origins Warriors’Here?”

Thinking of this, Meng Chao could not help but glance at the human-faced spider.

From a certain point of view, the mutated human-faced spider was even more abnormal than the origins warrior.

Earlier, through the human-faced Spider’s shell that was riddled with holes, Meng Chao had also found traces of liquid metal-like substances around his shattered bones and internal organs.
However, the human-faced Spider’s mental state was very stable.

The depths of its eyes flickered with the light of rationality and wisdom.

It was completely different from the origin warriors who were wild and crazy like demons.

There was one point that Meng Chao had to admit.

If one was not crazy, one could not survive.

‘Whether it was the origin warriors of Tu Lanze or the lost ones of Dragon City, leaving aside the loss of rationality and the extremely unstable life magnetic field, which led to a short lifespan, not to mention these two fatal flaws, just their instantaneous maximum combat strength.., seemed to be much
stronger than ordinary people of the same level.

If there was a way to maintain the terrifying combat strength under the state of Qi deviation without overdrawing their lives, and without paying the price of rationality and humanity..

Meng Chao remembered that lei zongchao, the “Martial God”, once said that although dragon city’s cultivation of spiritual energy had just begun, it could already see the end at a glance.

This was also the reason why the power system of extraordinary people was divided into three major realms and nine minor realms, and stopped abruptly when they reached the peak of the godly state.
According to the normal cultivation speed, it was already extremely fortunate for Meng Chao to be able to enter the godly state at a young age.

Within ten to twenty years, he absolutely didn’t have to hope to peek into the supreme realm of the nine-star godly state.

Not to mention, he would surpass Lei Zongchao, the martial god, and become the first existence in Dragon City to surpass the peak of the godly state.

Unless he chose to “Go mad”.

And he would find a way to control his mad state!

In addition to the extremely complex and sophisticated liquid metal-like substances, Meng Chao also found that these ancient specimens, which were at least 3,000 years old, were different from modem Orc warriors.
The beast characteristics on their bodies were far less intense than those of the modern Orc warriors.

Although a large number of their limbs and organs were deformed and deformed by the erosion of the liquid metal-like substances, they did not look human.

However, the parts that were still intact could clearly be seen with sparse hair, smooth skin, and slender fingers.

Such a body shape did not seem to be suitable for hand-to-hand combat.

However, it was very suitable for controlling precision machinery, deducing complicated formulas, and even building a true civilization.

Meng Chao found a specimen with a perfectly preserved head.

However, he did not find any beast features on the face of the specimen.

Of course, there were subtle differences between the overly broad forehead, relatively flat nose, lead gray hair, and beard, and the appearance of modern humans.

It’s a bit like the late Homo sapiens, the Neanderthals, who mysteriously disappeared 24,000 years ago on Earth.
