“Kacha…”

After a series of consecutive movements, Gray also heard the familiar and melodious notification sound.

“Ding dong, it has been detected that the host is devouring the flesh and blood of a Level 2 mutated giant lizard. Obtained + 20 evolution points and 0.2% bloodline extraction.”

The crisp system notification sound made Gray feel an unprecedented joy.

Sure enough, it was this feeling that he was infatuated with that he couldn’t stop.

Therefore, you low-intelligence giant lizards, reproduce and reproduce, and strive for your limited time.

.

Waiting for his next return, it would be the time for Gray’s ancient bloodline to be fully activated.

In the blink of an eye, Gray completely finished off the six mutated giant lizards on the spot.

The giant sea turtle was left alone on the beach, crying and sobbing.

However, perhaps it was because Gray had saved it, it slowly crawled over and stuck out its sticky tongue, like a puppy that was close to its owner. Its expression was full of ingratiation.

“You want to lick me? Dream on.”

With a chuckle, Gray took advantage of the situation and rolled over, avoiding the giant turtle’s fawning actions. Then, he used his psychic power to communicate. Without beating around the bush, he said bluntly,

“You stupid fellow, are you interested in going somewhere other than this island with me…”

“Roar!”

As if it had understood what Gray was trying to say, the giant turtle also let out an excited neigh.

Then, because it was moving too fast, the scabbed wound opened up once again, causing the turtle to grimace in pain.

Mutated beasts were simple. They only had simple intelligence and were not developed. They were very easy to coax, as long as one treated them well.

No, it could even be said that coaxing was not required. The instinct of animals was to seek out the strong. As long as one was stronger than them and treated them better, they would naturally submit to it.

Previously, Gray was also glad that he had provided the giant turtle with three meals continuously for dozens of days, allowing it to pass through the most difficult period since it was born.

And now, he had once again saved it. This made the giant turtle even more grateful and would remember it forever.

Therefore, the cross-racial subjugation that was very difficult to achieve for others was actually so easy for him.

With another powerful subordinate, Gray was naturally pleased with himself. He raised his feet again and walked towards the horizon in the distance.

Behind him, besides the blonde girl, there was also a large khaki turtle the size of a small car carrying the blonde girl.

In this manner, Gray and the other two embarked on their journey out of the island.

The Komodo Island was 40 kilometers long from the north to the south, and 20 kilometers wide from the east to the west. It was constantly hilly, hot and dry. There were trees and grasslands.

Such an island was between Songba Island and Flo Island.

However, these two islands were several times larger than the small Komodo Island.

There might be many more mutated beasts on the island.

Suddenly Gray remembered that he still had something to do.

Thinking of this, Gray brought the giant turtle and Claire, who was on the turtle’s back, to the edge of the Komodo Island. He then instructed them.

“You guys stay here for a while. I have to go somewhere. There’s still one more thing I need to do.”

After that, without looking at their expressions, Gray lifted his feet and walked toward the center of the island without looking back.

There was a bottomless sinkhole, and around it was Gray’s ‘hometown’, the first place he woke up in this world. It was also the center of the nuclear explosion.

Everything had many unsolved secrets waiting for him to explore.

There were shocking nuclear radiation and the ‘unknown’ that everything feared.

Before leaving the island, Gray had to go there to find out what was going on.

…

In the blink of an eye, about 10 minutes later, Gray finally ran all the way to his destination.

He looked at the bottomless ring-shaped hole in front of him.

Gray stopped at the edge of the hole and thought for a while.

What he saw was pitch black. It was as if the air around the entire area had been distorted by the huge amount of nuclear radiation. The air was very humid.

However, it seemed to be different from before. This pit seemed to have been even deeper than before?

Amidst his surprise, Gray was keenly aware of this fact.

This man-eating pit that looked like a “black hole” was still continuously extending downwards. If it was given enough time, it might not be able to reach the core of the Earth.

Putting aside this unfathomable large hole, Gray, who was feeling extremely uncomfortable from the surrounding air, activated his psychic perception ability.

The surrounding scene made his hair stand on end.

An unimaginable amount of nuclear radiation had gathered here.

Even the deepest part of the hole, which was visible to the naked eye, was constantly flashing with a dark green light. It was a material light formed from the condensation of too many nuclear radiation elements.

What was worth mentioning was that nuclear radiation would speed up the evolution of animals, provided that they did not die from it.

And now, in the deepest part of this pit, there were actually so many nuclear radiation elements.

Could it be…

As if he had figured out something crucial, Gray’s pupils kept contracting and enlarging.

“That’s right. If that’s the case, then everything makes sense…”

After being filled with shock, Gray seemed to have understood something. It was as if he had missed out on the greatest opportunity that he had obtained since he had transmigrated and awakened.`

If he, who had been ignorant back then, had discovered this place earlier, his current level of mutation and evolution would definitely not be limited to this. Fortunately, it was not too late to make amends.

Taking a deep look at the pitch-black cave, Gray nodded and made up his mind. He would go all out!

“Ta, ta, ta…”

Raising his feet, Gray slowly walked towards the deepest part of the cave.

…

What entered his eyes was pitch-black. He couldn’t see the end of it.

If Gray didn’t have the ability to sense heat, he wouldn’t have dared to step into this place.

But now, his eyes focused, and the ability to sense heat was activated.

But in the next moment…

“Boom…”

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and Gray’s mind shook.

This was because, at this moment, tens of thousands of red shadows imprinted themselves into Gray’s mind.

“Rats? This place has turned into a rat nest?”

With a shout, Gray ‘looked’ at the tens of thousands of red shadows, and his scalp went numb.

It wasn’t just one or two.

It was tens of thousands!
