219 Aquatic Evolution

“Boss, just give me the word.

“If I don’t put my life on the line, I don’t think I’ll ever grow stronger.”

Thirteen thumped his chest.

The stronger zombies had all been saved by Wang Ran from the laboratory, so they were very indebted to him.

This was a good opportunity for them to show their value.

“Boss, are we having a fight?

“Count me in!

“Sigh, the equipment you got us is stellar.”

Wu Jianguo jumped down from the truck.

“We’ll expect about 20,000 of them, and many of them are high-leveled zombies. It’s going to be a tough battle.

“This is going to be N-City’s first major test. Everyone must be on guard.

“How about this? Jianguo, go to the football stadium and inform the people there to evacuate before noon tomorrow.

“The stadium is in the north. If we don’t get them out of the way, they’re doomed.

“Blow up all the bridges except the Jiangbei bridge.

“The zombie horde can either take a detour, or squeeze through the Jiangbei bridge.

“Oh, right. Take 20 sets of the equipment to the stadium. You guys keep 30 sets for yourself and give 30 sets to Thirteen and the others.

“All the combat forces must go to the front line tomorrow,” Wang Ran ordered him.

“Alright! It’s finally time for a tough battle. My hands are getting rusty!”

Wu Jianguo rubbed his palms together, looking very excited.

“Alright, have a good rest tonight. Get up early tomorrow to prepare.

“Director, you are a zombie. It’s not convenient for you to stay in this camp. You can go with Thirteen and the others,” Wang Ran said apologetically.

“It’s fine, it’s fine. I’ve been a zombie for a while, and I’m used to it.”

The director waved his hand.

He was afraid that he would not be able to control his appetite if he stayed around humans all the time.

After giving his instructions, Wang Ran drove Tang Tang to Eastlake Island.

“Uncle, can I join the battle this time?”

Tang Tang looked a little excited.

For Tang Tang, this was a limited-time event in a game.

She could even defeat the lower-end of red-eyed zombies, so she was not afraid in the slightest.

“I want those with lesser combat experience to get stronger.

“You’re in charge of holding the line. Don’t do anything, unless it’s necessary,” Wang Ran said.

In fact, with Xiaoyu’s mere presence and Momo’s ability to control regular zombies, they were not in actual danger.

If it wasn’t for the fact that they had to deal with an upcoming million zombies and let his underlings gain experience, Wang Ran could have easily dealt with such a force using a small team.

After Wang Ran parked the car, Lin Momo and a few girls immediately came up to him.

“Momo, there’s a batch of equipment in the car. Let all the girls get familiar with it.

“We’re expecting many visitors tomorrow. We need to fight.

“Oh right, drain a bottle’s worth of blood from me later. Give them some nourishment and increase their strength,” Wang Ran ordered.

“A battle is about to begin? That’s great!

“My fists are already thirsting for blood!”

The flight attendants became excited at once.

Of course, it was also good news to be able to drink Wang Ran’s blood again. They had not had it for a while.

The girls helped Lin Momo unload the cargo.

Wang Ran brought Tang Tang to the edge of the cliff.

If he didn’t give Tang Tang some special treatment, she would go start rioting.

Wang Ran whistled, and a few of the mutated cuttlefish’s tentacles emerged from the water.

Wang Ran jumped down with Tang Tang…

“Uncle, I feel like I’m about to advance in rank. Let’s do it again!”

Tang Tang grabbed on to Wang Ran and refused to let him go.

“We agreed on two times, and now it’s the third time!

“I still need to donate my blood later!

“Besides, Xiaoyu hasn’t even eaten yet!”

Wang Ran decisively refused Tang Tang’s suggestion.

There was still a big battle tomorrow, and he couldn’t let his legs go weak at a critical moment.

Tang Tang stuck out her tongue. ‘Alright, it’s not like I’d lose out on much.’

At that moment, the mutated cuttlefish beneath them suddenly started shaking.

“Uncle, what’s the situation with the little sea monster?”

Tang Tang was a little worried.

Had they hurt the little sea monster and angered it?

“Why do I feel like it’s about to level up…?”

Wang Ran could feel the intense energy change in the mutated cuttlefish’s body.

After thinking about it, he figured that some of their fluids had fallen into the water and was absorbed by the little sea monster…

“Little sea monster, let’s go ashore.”

Wang Ran patted the tentacles.

On the shore, Wang Ran could still help, if something croppedup.

The mutated cuttlefish tried its best to swim to the shore with Wang Ran and Tang Tang.

As soon as it reached the shore, it lay limply on the beach.

“Uncle, look, the colors of its body wouldn’t stop changing!” Tang Tang said in surprise.

Wang Ran could also tell that the mutated cuttlefish was currently in a critical state and was just a step away from evolving.

“Ah…”

Wang Ran sighed and took out a dagger to cut his arm. A large amount of blood fell on the mutated cuttlefish.

The blood was directly absorbed into the body of the mutated cuttlefish through its skin.

The mutated cuttlefish’s body began to tense up.

“Uncle, I think it needs another squirt!”

Tang Tang suggested.

“What are you thinking?”

Wang Ran rolled his eyes at Tang Tang. He exerted a little more force in his hand, and another wave of blood dripped down.

After absorbing this fresh splash of blood, the mutated cuttlefish’s body began to wriggle.

Its skin and tentacles were constantly peeling off, and its body was becoming more and more transparent.

Layer after layer of its tissues were peeled off, and its body became smaller and smaller.

Wang Ran and Tang Tang looked on with interest.

Ten minutes later, the mutated cuttlefish finally stopped moving.

Wang Ran stepped forward and removed the outer layer of skin.

“F*ck! Little sea monster, I know I call you ‘little’, but why did you shrink?”

Wang Ran was stunned.

The mutated cuttlefish, which was originally about the size of a medium-sized cruise ship, had shrunk to the size of a car.

This time, it really was a ‘little sea monster’.

“Wow, this little sea monster is so cute!”

Tang Tang ran up and touched it here and there.

The little sea monster was now transparent with a little pink, and it was no longer producing the dangerous aura from before.

“What’s the use of being cute?!”

The little sea monsters used to be so domineering. Now that it has become so small, riding it would not be as convenient.

Wang Ran sighed.

Wang Ran preferred utility to aesthetics.

The little sea monster stood up in protest. In the dangerous sea, size was not all.

What it lost in size, it more than made up for in the sheer amount of power gained!

“Little sea monster, I’ll bring Uncle to play with you more next time!

“You will become stronger and stronger.”

Tang Tang secretly whispered in the little sea monster’s ear.

The little sea monster blinked its big eyes, which were glimmering with joy.

“Alright, let’s go back.

“I still have to get my blood drawn for the other girls.”

Wang Ran pulled Tang Tang and climbed up the seaside road.

The little sea monster disappeared into the sea with a splash.
