1631 The Effect
Ten minutes later, all the irrelevant personnel in the prison square were cleared, leaving only a few Lickers summoned by Fang Heng.
Fang Heng followed Mo Jiawei to the warehouse to test the materials.
Most materials that contained energy could not be absorbed. Only a few refined energy ores could be used.
The effect was also very ordinary.
The skill provided a total of twelve energy slots. After trying all of them, he realized that they could only increase his energy by a little.
Only the cosmic crystal was effective.
After absorbing a box of cosmic crystals, half a grid of energy was filled.
Fang Heng felt that Starfish Company was fair in doing business.
The cosmic crystals were worth it.
Soon, Qiu Yaokang, accompanied by several researchers, arrived at the square behind the prison.
He had not seen Fang Heng for a while.
Previously, he had obtained the liquid of Hell Faram from Fang Heng through his subordinates.
It was a special life form that had never been found on the planet!
Its structure was extremely strange.
Qiu Yaokang felt like he had opened the door to a new world after his research.
He had been researching for several nights without eating or sleeping.
He was a little impatient when he heard Fang Heng call him over in a hurry.
His current interest was focused on studying Hell Faram and was extremely fascinated by this unknown life form.
Qiu Yaokang saw Fang Heng and nodded at him. He was still thinking about the experiment just now and couldnât help but ask, âWhatâs the rush? Iâm halfway through my research, so I have to hurry back.â
âYeah, it wonât take long. The zombie clone has some new changes, so I asked you to come over and give some advice.â
âOh?â
Qiu Yaokangâs attention was piqued after hearing Fang Heng and his eyes revealed a hint of interest as he raised his head to look at the Licker in the square.
âShow me?â
âYes.â
Fang Heng took half a step forward and controlled the Licker to use the skill of âefficient evolution.â
âKaâŠâ
Under the gazes of the surrounding researchers, the Licker in the middle of the square slowly curled up. Its body quickly secreted a layer of sticky brown substance, quickly forming a cocoon on the spot.
The flesh cocoon was about half a meter tall and was beating rhythmically like a heart. It was as if something was being nurtured inside.
Hmm?
Qiu Yaokang narrowed his eyes and observed the condition of the flesh cocoon with interest. He even took a few steps forward, seemingly trying to poke the flesh cocoon with the tip of his pen.
Thump! Thump!
However, the flesh cocoon started to beat faster!
âChi!!â
Before Qiu Yaokang could get close, a hole appeared in the flesh cocoon. A greenish-gray palm reached out from the flesh cocoon. Following that, an ordinary zombie slowly crawled out of the cocoon.
[Hint: The playerâs Licker has completed the status change. Status: zombie clone-normal].
âOh?â
Qiu Yaokang stopped and looked at the ordinary zombie. He stood there and seemed to be thinking.
He rubbed his chin and turned to look at Fang Heng.
âInitialized zombie form?â
âNo, to be precise, itâs the conversion of various forms.â
Through the experiment and the game hints, Fang Heng confirmed his guess.
The active effect of the âefficient evolutionâ skill was to switch forms.
In the past, after ordinary zombies evolved into Lickers or merged to become fusion Tyrant forms, they could not be reverted to their original form. They could only evolve further on the foundation.
For example, from an ordinary zombie to a vine zombie, then to a Tyrant form that had fused with vines, and finally to a fusion Tyrant form that had fused with the primogenitor virus.
It has to evolve one step at a time.
Now, Fang Heng could switch between various forms quickly.
There were two conditions for the switch.
The first was energy consumption.
Secondly, the zombie clone had to undergo the transformation once and be successfully recorded.
After the zombie clone was born, it transformed into a Licker. Therefore, it could only switch between its Licker and normal form.
In addition, there was a limit to the number of forms that could be switched. At most, there could only be five forms that could be switched.
Five was already enough!
Fang Heng pondered.
In the previous test, it only took less than 10 seconds for a Licker to transform into a normal zombie clone.
If it consumed extra energy, it would be even faster!
Moreover, the energy consumption was not too much. The energy in the energy slot had only decreased by a little and it was possible to transform a large number of forms!
âI see. Quickly switch between various forms to deal with different states⊠The transformation of this energy body should consume energyâŠâ
Qiu Yaokang listened to Fang Hengâs explanation and whispered softly. He quickly wrote and drew in his notebook. He raised his head and asked, âWhat are the conditions for obtaining a change in form?â
Fang Heng explained, âItâs a successful form transformation. After that, the form will be automatically recorded. However, there are only five forms that can be recorded at most.â
Qiu Yaokang nodded and praised, âInteresting.â
In order to confirm his judgment, Fang Heng continued to try to get another fusion Tyrant form to walk over and switch to the vine clone.
âChi chi chiâŠâ
Layers of thick gel appeared on the fusion Tyrant form, quickly forming a huge flesh cocoon on the spot. The flesh cocoon quickly shriveled up and about ten seconds later, the vine zombie crawled out of the dried flesh cocoon.
After every evolution, the status of the zombie clone would be cleared and its HP would be fully restored.
It was a good enhancement ability.
Fang Heng licked his lips. As long as there was enough energy supply, his zombie cloneâs adaptability would be greatly enhanced!
Fang Heng did an estimate. At present, there were only a few types of zombie clones that he could modify.
A normal zombie form that could provide support skills such as digging, building, gathering, and leveling; the Licker form was good at climbing and adapting to various special terrains; the vine zombie form to deal with special situations; the useless ghost claw form and finally, the most powerful fusion Tyrant form, which was the best at fighting head-on!
With talent enhancement, they could switch between these forms at any time!
Fang Heng shifted his gaze to Qiu Yaokang.
âWith the current capability of the research institute, how long will it take for a zombie clone to transform into all forms?â
Qiu Yaokang thought for a while and nodded, âIt will take about half a month. The ghost claw form, the Licker form, and the vine zombie form are not a problem. As for the fusion Tyrant form, considering the success rate, the current materials can only be used to prepare about 100 zombie clones.â
âThatâs enough. Letâs get ready. First, weâll transform the Licker and the vine zombie form. Then, weâll experiment with the fusion Tyrant form.â
âYes, Iâll arrange it. We can start tonight.â
Qiu Yaokang nodded and drew a few circles in his notebook. He added, âIn addition, I need to apply for a batch of resources to assist in the research and development of the zombie form of Hell Faram.â
At the mention of Hell Faram, Qiu Yaokangâs eyes lit up.
