Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate-Chapter 78 - 77: Infinite Reproduction

???

What’s going on?

Is there no Species Token in a medium-sized Demon gathering place either?

Lin You listened to the prompt with a look of astonishment.

Could it be that only large gathering places or those with a Leader Demon will reward a Token?

If that’s really the case, then he’s basically out of luck right now.

A Tier Seven Leader Demon, he definitely can’t handle.

Plus, he’s been wandering the Gobi Desert for so long and hasn’t seen any Demon gathering places below Tier Six, so he can’t even bully some low-level creatures to get a Token.

It’s evident that the Demon’s gathering places on the Primordial Continent start at Tier Six.

"Oh well, at least I got a lot of Magic Energy."

Lin You thought helplessly.

Fortunately, he gained a lot this time, directly obtaining ten thousand points of Magic Energy.

And after clearing out this Demon gathering place, the Mushroom Demon King’s experience finally reached full value.

In a prompt.

It advanced from a Tier Five Bursting Mushroom to a Tier Six Twin Mushroom, finally catching up with the main force’s Level. It’s definitely something to celebrate.

He took the reasonably intact Red Phosphorus Two-tailed Snake corpses into his personal space.

Lin You then leapt onto the back of one of the Wood Lions.

"Let’s go, let’s continue exploring the surroundings."

Just like that.

Lin You led his mighty Plant Army and continued to advance into the depths of the Gobi Desert, hunting Demons.

And as they went further, Lin You discovered a problem.

That is, the Demons on the Primordial Continent have a very short regeneration cycle!

In several areas, which he had clearly cleared before.

It was unexpected that only a few days had passed, and many low-tier Demons were emerging again, and they were continuously upgrading.

Giving him a new understanding of this world.

Fortunately, he hasn’t discovered any Tier Seven Demons yet.

Otherwise, relying on just his Species, it might be hard to handle.

...

Several hours later.

Lin You returned to his Territory with a full harvest.

During this outing, he eradicated one medium-sized and one small-sized Demon gathering place, as well as encountered isolated Demons along the way.

The Magic Energy combined was about sixteen thousand points.

He left six thousand to recharge the Protective Shield.

Then he hurried to the Tree of Life to recruit Species.

Lin You checked, and all three of his beast-type Species had reached ten, which was basically enough, and he didn’t need to recruit more for now.

So he directly spent five thousand Magic Energy to recruit twenty Earth Elemental Spirits and began mutations.

[Tier Six Species mutation requires spending 250 points of Magic Energy, do you wish to continue?]

"Continue!"

With a flash of light, the Earth Elemental Spirit transformed into a Tree Spirit General.

Continuing with the second mutation.

Swish!

It transformed into a Blood Demoness.

When he reached the eighth mutation, Lin You finally saw something different: a tuft of... grass?

Indeed!

Just grass!

A piece of grass that couldn’t be more ordinary!

"Uh... did the mutation fail, and it regressed?"

Lin You gazed with confusion at the bundle of grass on the ground, which looked like the common weeds seen everywhere on the roadside.

Out of curiosity, he immediately checked the grass’s Attributes.

[Name: Silver-Edged Grass]

[Race: Plant]

[Level: Tier Six (0/500)]

[Power: 250]

[Constitution: 250]

[Agility: 250]

[Spirit: 250]

[Skills: Plant Protection, Hardening (Can harden the leaves and transform into blades, attacking enemies.), Infinite Reproduction (Consumes the Power of Nature to reproduce at an extremely fast speed, duplicating identical individuals without occupying recruitment space.)]

[Introduction: Wildfire cannot destroy it, when the spring wind blows it regrows, Silver-Edged Grass has an extremely strong survival ability, as long as the main body is intact, it can infinitely reproduce.]

Lin You: "!!!"

After reading Silver-Edged Grass’s Attributes, Lin You couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

Not because Silver-Edged Grass’s Attributes were too low.

But because of its Skill.

Infinite Reproduction—this Skill is just too overpowered, and it doesn’t even occupy a recruitment slot!

It’s just unknown if this Skill can be inherited by other plants through mutation.

If it really can, then he would really hit the jackpot.

Lin You had also considered continuing to use mutation on this Silver-Edged Grass.

But considering that Silver-Edged Grass has three Skills, the probability of retaining Infinite Reproduction is too low, and there’s currently only one Silver-Edged Grass, one mutation and it’s gone.

So he temporarily gave up on this idea.

He closed the Attribute interface and immediately had Silver-Edged Grass use its Reproduction Skill.

The next second, that tuft of grass quickly split and spread outwards, directly covering the entire Territory!

Through spiritual connection, Lin You could even sense that this wasn’t its limit; it just stopped because continuing to reproduce would consume too much Energy.

Lin You was pleasantly surprised by this result.

This seemingly insignificant grassland can definitely have a surprising effect in battle.

Then he also tested the Hardening Skill of Silver-Edged Grass, which was weaker in power than other plants but far more superior than Tier Five.

This is probably the price for its Infinite Reproduction.

Next.

Lin You continued mutating the remaining plants.

But unfortunately, besides one Cactus Warrior, no new Species appeared later.

And his Tier Six Combat Species increased from fifty to sixty-seven, much stronger than when he first arrived here.

If he had descended onto the Primordial Continent with such power in the first place, he wouldn’t have been assigned to such a remote and barren location.

With a bitter smile, Lin You casually opened the ranking to take a look.

He still hadn’t managed to squeeze into the top ten thousand.

It seems that the people on the leaderboard have more Tier Six Species than he does.

It’s worth noting that his Species have an extra Skill compared to others, so their combat power must be stronger, and even with that, he still can’t squeeze into the rankings, proving the point.

Especially those in the top few, who have remained unwavering since he arrived at this Duchy, clearly showing their strength.

Then, Lin You opened the regional channel and discovered that many newly descended Lords were chatting enthusiastically.

"Brothers, is anyone assigned near the Great Wilderness Ridge? Let’s cooperate and develop together."

"Whoa, you’re revealing your Territory location just like this? So brave?"

"Great Wilderness Ridge? That area seems to be a vassal Territory of a Tier Seven Lord, right?"

"Tier Seven Lord? No wonder, with a Tier Seven Lord’s protection, who would dare to cause trouble?"

"I’m also near the Great Wilderness Ridge, let’s talk in private."

"I’m envious of being assigned under a Tier Seven Lord’s supervision; someone like me only got a small town in a corner of the mountains."

"Same here, the economy can’t develop at all, let alone collect the Power of Faith; when will I advance to Tier Seven."

Looking at their conversation, Lin You was equally surprised.

Some people were actually assigned under a Tier Seven Lord’s vassal Territory.

And it seems they’ve also gained the protection of those Tier Seven Lords, which is quite unexpected.

But upon careful thought, it makes sense.

After all, those Tier Seven Lords also need to collect the Power of Faith. If other cities within the vassal Territory develop, that Lord will surely receive resource returns, which is better than killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Those Tier Seven Lords aren’t fools.

Moreover, the resources just arrived by the Tier Six Lords are probably not even in the sights of the other party.

"It seems the pace needs to be accelerated."

Seeing these newly arrived Lords gradually increase, Lin You couldn’t help but feel a slight sense of urgency.

He closed the chat interface and began processing the Fierce Beast corpses he had brought back, intending to use them as labor for the residents to build the city.

...

One night passed quickly.

What Lin You didn’t expect was.

Early in the morning, Yellow Sand City was greeted by a group of uninvited guests, a group of refugees fleeing from Shuangye City.

Upon receiving the notice, Lin You immediately set aside what he was doing, mounted his Wood Lion, and left the Territory directly, heading to Yellow Sand City.

Just as Xue Changgui’s dispatched people described, over a hundred people had poured into Yellow Sand City, each looking disheveled and travel-worn, as if they had been on the road for a long time.

"Lord, you’ve arrived."

Seeing Lin You riding the Wood Lion appear, Xue Changgui and others, who were receiving the refugees, immediately came forward to greet him.

"What happened? Why are so many refugees coming to us?"
