The next day afternoon.
"Wow! This place is big. Are we going straight to the main giant aquarium to deal with a mutated shark or something?"
Standing in front of the abandoned giant aquarium building, Jay asked Ark with an enthusiastic expression.
When talking about sea creatures, what comes to Jay's mind is of course the shark or killer whale. Big and ferocious, it seemed quite powerful. Worthy to be accepted as the third Miracle Root!
"No. We don't go to the main rides (giant aquariums), but to places where they show off some unique and beautiful little animals."
"Eh? Is that good? I mean ... We don't go to see the coral reef?"
"We didn't come for a picnic, Jay."
"Hey! Then at least tell me what we're after! Not a shark or a killer whale?"
"Dark? Killer whales? What we're after is better than that."
"Wow! Whatisit? What?!"
"I thought about it well. The Miracle Root that suits you is ...
Mantis shrimp."
"Eh? A shrimp?!"
Jay stared at Ark with an expression of disbelief. He felt that his best friend was outrageous. The young man told him to give up the Miracle Root of the Black Wolf King and instead prepare a shrimp for him.
Even if there was a word mantis, it was still shrimp!
"Do you think I'm unfair. Do not underestimate this shrimp. The mantis shrimp I want you to get is the Latin name Odontodactylus scyllarus.
Not just any shrimp."
"Continue ... Ontodo ... Pshaw! Don't tell me to memorize such a name!"
"Then call it Peacock Mantis Shrimp, the great boxer!"
"Great boxer?"
The corner of Jay's lips twitched as he listened to the uncool-sounding nickname.
"Jay, what do you think is most important when we get Miracle Root?"
"The most important? That ... strength?"
"No. What is most important is the number of skills and the type of skill itself.
I give you an example. There are two types of mutated animals. First there was a giant wasp that broke through level two, quite strong and difficult to fight because of its large size as well as being able to fly. Second, there was a level two mutated axolotl. It was only half a meter in size, harmless, and only had great regeneration ability. But it can be killed easily if it knows its weak point.
The first one gave you a low-level poison resistance skill. While the latter gave you a super regeneration skill where when your hands were cut off, it could grow at an eye-catching speed!
Which do you think means more?"
"Of course it's the last one!"
"It's good that you know.
Searching for Miracle Root does not mean we have to defeat a very strong opponent. Instead, we can choose the most suitable one. Something we can still handle.
Of course, the stronger the enemy and the more skill it was good."
"Then how can we think of that type of Miracle Root if we don't try it? After all, there is no Wikipedia on that sort of thing!
No one has even researched Miracle Root yet! Being able to tell the skill was really strange!"
Jay looked at Ark suspiciously.
"We may not be able to be certain one hundred percent, but we can see some of its features. Take Rotten Ghost Mantis.
Under normal circumstances, praying mantises usually have good abilities in camouflage and sudden attacks. That way, we can guess what Miracle Root will be like.
There may be different mutations that make the creatures appear more ferocious and have more abilities. But as I said, we'll see what the animal is and we're about what kind of ability it develops when it mutates."
Hearing Ark's explanation, Jay was shocked. He felt that what his best friend said made sense. The man immediately grabbed Ark's robe and pulled it.
"Ark ... I ..."
Ark turned to Jay while tilting his head.
"What?"
"I ... I'M BAD AT BIOLOGY LESSONS!!!
What I memorized was only the anatomy of the human body!"
"Huh? I didn't think you were so great. You know all the internal organs, things related to muscles, and nerve points too?
It's really and hard to memorize."
"No! I mean ... The pistil head and pollen. Um, those kind of things?!"
"Geez! Don't talk about reproduction as if you really know anatomy."
Ark rolled his eyes. Really feel cheated. He was initially surprised, but all turned out to be just a joke.
"You'll know when you see it for yourself."
After saying that, Ark went to where the exhibits of the small creatures were located. Jay was dissatisfied, but in the end kept following him.
Arriving at the location, Ark and Jay saw many small aquariums with beautiful decorations. However, in addition to many aquariums that fell and broke apart in a mess on the floor ...
All the little aquariums are empty!
'Have moved, have you?'
Ark thought as he looked at the spacious room with many small, empty aquariums. Looks quiet, a little dark, and damp. It really made her uncomfortable to be there.
"Because there isn't, we'll look for it later. For now, it's better to get my Miracle Root first."
"Eh? You just give up?"
"The giant aquarium is vast and dangerous. Although we are in a place far from the core, but still dangerous.
Sea creatures are the strangest creatures. I have no doubt that we'll see alien nest-like sights rather than beautiful ocean and coral."
"Then, what do you want to look for."
"Although here is most famous for its giant aquarium, but there is also a dolphin circus performance pool, right?
That's my goal."
"You ... choose dolphins?"
Seeing the cool Ark figure choosing the cute creature, Jay could not help but laugh.
Ark did not explain. After all, what he was looking for was not a dolphin. Instead, it was the mutated creatures that colonized the place.
Ark and Jay walked through a dark and damp passageway. Above them, there were rusty water pipes. The sound of water dripping from the leaking pipe made the atmosphere even more terrifying.
Just then, the two of them suddenly jumped back.
Black shadows fell from above, blocking their way forward.
Looking at the creature, Ark's expression changed. He felt strange because his best friend seemed to be luckier compared to him.
Yes ... what was in front of them was the mutated Peacock Mantis Shrimp!
The front of the body is about one and a half meters high. The body of the back of the body is almost two meters. The small legs that mantis shrimp should have were replaced with many spider-like legs.
It was red and beautiful, making the people who saw it amazed.
"If not wrong, after this hall there is still a display place of medium-sized fish, right?
So all this time the shrimp has been exploring this place ... have you?"
"Didn't he need water to live?!"
Hearing that question, the corner of Ark's lips twitched.
"Where do I know, it was I who made these creatures mutate?!
Think of it like a catfish or mudskipper that can survive on land some time!"
"Errn ... Ark?"
Hearing Jay's words, Ark remained focused on the Peacock Mantis Shrimp in front of them. Although his body was not so big, it was even somewhat skinny due to the lack of food ...
That creature still managed to break through level three!
"Didn't that shrimp look funny? Look style. Really behaving like a kangaroo ready for a boxing match?"
"Be careful, this Peacock Mantis Shrimp is a level three creature."
"Hehehe. But he doesn't seem dangerous. He looks skinny and—"
The figure of the Peacock Mantis Shrimp jumps towards Jay with his spider-like legs. It looks strange, but it fits.
Seeing the mantis shrimp, Jay who was quite surprised immediately put up a defensive position. Both of his hands were directly coated with a hard exo-skeleton.
Jay was quite confident as his defense could still withstand the attacks of the great and savage Black Wolf Queen. But Ark who was several meters away from him was already pale. He was about to warn.
Just then, a loud explosion sounded.
BANG!!!
Jay's figure disappeared from Ark's sight. Jump through the hallway and return to the previous room.
BRUISES! PYARR!!!
The sound of desks and aquariums being destroyed rang out from a distance.
Ark instantly drew out his two swords. Meanwhile, the creature in front of him staring at him was taken tilting his head. It looks silly, but it makes the young man nervous. Anyway ...
Normal mantis shrimp (not mutated) alone can hit as hard and as fast as a bullet!
