98: : Zerg!
After the giant beast was killed, it immediately revealed its true form.
From its original gigantic steel form, it transformed into an arthropod with steel-like characteristics.
Lin Wu was repeatedly amazed by this transformation.
"Let's see what entries it has."
"trait: Alloy Body (Orange), Mimicry Ability (Purple)"
"Alloy Body (Orange): Fusing this trait will grant you defense capabilities far beyond ordinary people, directly reaching 500 times that of steel, without affecting your flexibility, speed, or weight."
"Mimicry Ability (Purple): After fusing this trait, you will gain the ability to mimic other objects and animals in the natural environment, but this will severely limit your abilities. You will need to exit the ability state to regain full strength."
"Another trait that increases defense!"
Lin Wu was somewhat exasperated.
Every time he arrived in a new environment, the first batch of entries he obtained were inevitably related to increasing defense.
His current defense was already somewhat lagging. While it made him impervious to blades and spears in the Grandmaster Realm, it was clearly insufficient in the Star Radiance Realm.
"Absorb Alloy Body!"
Adamantine Body and Alloy Body were not significantly different; they were just different names, essentially the same type of trait and ability.
Lin Wu felt his defense greatly increase.
"Adding what I had before, I now have a total defense of one thousand times that of steel."
"With this, even those in the Star Radiance Realm won't be able to do anything to me."
Lin Wu once again recalled the special effects films from his previous life.
Even Ultraman, known as the Giant of Light, mostly didn't have defense exceeding five thousand times that of steel.
And now he possessed one-fifth of their defense.
"Let's see if I can absorb Qi and Spirit."
Lin Wu attempted to absorb.
The result was a failed absorption.
It wasn't that the trait was ineffective, but rather that this creature simply didn't have a Dantian.
It relied entirely on brute strength.
Some Star Beasts didn't possess True Qi abilities; they relied solely on brute force.
This was also why the Realm of Star Beasts differed from the Realm of Human Cultivators.
Of course, some intelligent Star Beasts could Cultivate and thus develop a Dantian.
"Find the next one!"
Lin Wu picked up his mithril spear and walked into the distance... [Lin Wu, Points: 1600, Ranking: xx]
Due to slaying a Star Beast.
Lin Wu's ranking immediately changed.
And this change...
Directly attracted the attention of everyone on Progenitor Star.
Li Zhantian was somewhat pleased; Lin Wu's performance was within his expectations and did not disappoint anyone.
This was the combat power a Dragon Country person should possess!
The reactions of others were even greater.
"What does this mean? A True Qi second-level actually managed to kill a King-Rank eighth-stage Vicious Beast across Realms? I didn't see wrong, did I? Is this even human?"
"This child is so Heaven-Defying, truly possessing the aura of a king! He will definitely achieve Major Achievement in the future!"
"That old fellow Li Zhantian is blessed. I didn't expect him to find such a powerful disciple. It seems we'll be outdone again in the future."
Blood Venerable frowned, his expression very unpleasant, as if he had swallowed a fly.
Although he was only in the True Qi Realm, the combat power he displayed was in no way inferior to the Grandmaster Realm.
He could kill across Realms even in the True Qi Realm.
And it was an instant kill!
His future Realm achievements would be limitless!
"Damn it, which rock did this kid pop out of? He's so strong, several times stronger than my disciples!"
Blood Venerable was extremely displeased.
He knew that his disciples had been selected after a long search.
If things continued at this pace, the Andromeda Human Race might not even be able to rival the Milky Way Human Race.
Surpassing them would be even more distant!
...Lin Wu continued to search for targets.
There were many Star Beasts, but most had purple entries; orange entries were very rare.
Lin Wu didn't want to waste time on trash Star Beasts.
Otherwise, Star Beasts with good entries would be killed by others.
"Can I get another orange trait!"
"Damn it!"
Lin Wu was somewhat speechless.
Although there were a billion Star Beasts, most were just there to make up the numbers.
Having a purple trait was already good.
He continued to fly, searching for traces of Advanced entries.
Suddenly.
A Laser shot out from the ground.
Lin Wu's Mental Energy was already quite strong, so he dodged these attacks in the first instant.
"Who's looking for death?"
Lin Wu landed directly on the ground.
His powerful strength even caused cracks to appear on the ground.
When he looked closely.
He discovered the culprit attacking him.
It was a swarm of Zerg!
"It's the Zerg."
"I didn't expect to encounter the second-largest race in the Milky Way Galaxy."
The scale of these Zerg was enormous; it could be said that among a billion Venerable Rank Vicious Beasts, at least one-third were Universe Zerg.
The moment he landed.
Dozens of Lasers shot towards him.
Each of these Lasers was equivalent to a Grandmaster first-level.
Their speed reached several hundred times the speed of sound, so Lin Wu couldn't dodge them at all.
Clang clang clang.
Being unable to dodge was a last resort, but it didn't mean these Zerg could break his defense.
A faint golden light emanated from Lin Wu's body.
All these Lasers grazed him and deflected.
It was like splashing water on a mirror.
Lin Wu raised his mithril spear and directly swung out hundreds of Spear Qi, each containing elemental changes, instantly cutting dozens of Zerg in half.
Most of these Zerg were equivalent to Grandmaster first-level, and to the current Lin Wu, they were no different from ants.
While absorbing Qi, Lin Wu also continuously observed these Zerg.
On the way to Progenitor Star, Li Zhantian had told Lin Wu about the Milky Way Zerg.
The Zerg were known as a Universe race.
Their sphere of influence was not limited to the Milky Way Galaxy.
Within the known range of humanity, their presence was everywhere.
The reason this race was so powerful...
Was that they had a collective consciousness; almost all the Zerg in the entire Milky Way obeyed the will of the Zerg Queen.
They also didn't need to Cultivate; they only needed to eat, drink, fight, and kill to continuously grow.
Their upper limit was entirely determined by their genes.
As long as they grew healthily, they could reach their genetic limit.
And the Zerg also had a very standard operational model: each galaxy had a large Zerg nest.
They continuously produced Zerg, then spread them to other planets, forming smallerHatching Nest (hatcheries) through differentiation.
Subsequently, they plundered resources and reproduced endlessly.
When they reached a certain scale, all the resources of that planet would be completely devoured by the Zerg.
Furthermore, the classification of Zerg was extremely diverse.
Offensive Zerg included Laser Zerg, as well as Laser Cannon Zerg, and Exploding Zerg, etc.
Their system was complete!
As long as they had food and drink, they could reproduce.
Even if their quality was inferior to other races, they could still overwhelm them with sheer numbers.
This was the domineering aspect of the Zerg.
Almost no one wanted to provoke the Zerg.
Including in this competition.
Lin Wu killed hundreds more Zerg.
Soon, an unusual announcement sounded.
"Participant Lin Wu has killed one thousand Zerg and has been marked as a hatred target by the temporary Zerg Queen."
