Infinity, The Arcade Age-Chapter 343: The Mutated Doctor
Chapter 343 - 343: The Mutated Doctor
The rumbling continued as Qin Ming activated his "Heavenly Glide" skill to create distance, but he couldn't shake off Doctor Calamity's pursuit. Even when he hid behind cover, it was immediately blasted apart the next second, leaving him nowhere to hide.
This A-rank biological flame skill wasn't terrifying because of its raw power but because of its frightening sustainability. The energy consumption was incredibly low, designed for endurance. If anyone else had it, Qin Ming wouldn't care—he excelled at prolonged battles.
But the problem was that the one with this skill was Doctor Calamity, the final boss!
With his monstrous base attributes, even if you gave him a D-rank skill, its lethality would still be absurd!
Qin Ming's damage immunity couldn't withstand the bombardment of fireballs. In fact, he wasn't even sure if he could withstand a casual punch from Doctor Calamity.
Seventy points of strength—this was no joke!
Watching yet another cover getting instantly destroyed, along with dinosaurs being effortlessly incinerated, Qin Ming realized he couldn't just drag this out. His gaze turned ruthless.
In the next moment, a surge of blood energy spread in all directions.
"Flesh Absorption—Activate!"
With the skill fully unleashed, its range extended hundreds of meters, causing blood droplets to seep from the bodies of everyone—both enemies and allies—within the facility.
Centered around Qin Ming, a crimson vortex formed in the room.
Standing within the vortex, he abruptly rose and, seeing a fireball approaching, raised his hand to block.
As blood coagulated, a massive shield of blood manifested, shattering the fireball on impact.
Before a second fireball could be launched, Qin Ming spread his arms wide and unleashed a barrage of attacks.
A human artillery turret? In this era, who wasn't a walking cannon?!
Blood versus fire!
A deep hum resonated as massive blood spheres, nearly two meters in diameter, shot forward like artillery shells.
The smaller fireballs were immediately shattered upon impact, and in Doctor Calamity's stunned gaze, the blood spheres detonated against his body.
As explosions rained down, Doctor Calamity tried to launch a counterattack with fireballs, but they were obliterated before they could even fully form.
With his skill fully activated, Qin Ming's bombardment ability exceeded Doctor Calamity's!
This wasn't because Qin Ming's ability was inherently stronger—it was because there were too many living creatures inside the base.
The more people around him, the stronger Qin Ming's blood control became!
If he were alone, fighting Doctor Calamity in a one-on-one duel, his activated skill would be useless.
The minions Doctor Calamity had called in for assistance didn't help him at all—they became the very reason for his downfall!
The relentless bombardment lasted over twenty seconds. When Qin Ming finally exhausted his mental energy and was forced to stop, the surroundings were in complete ruin.
The uncontrolled blood splattered across the ground, and the once pristine laboratory was riddled with holes from the explosions.
And Doctor Calamity?
Curled up in a corner, shielding his head with his hands, his body was covered in wounds.
Of the two dinosaur heads he once had, one was completely blown apart, now hanging limp.
Seeing his heavily injured opponent, Qin Ming sighed in relief. He was about to speak when—
Doctor Calamity's body began trembling strangely.
In Qin Ming's shocked gaze, his wounds began healing at an alarming rate. The mangled dinosaur head detached, and his body started contorting and expanding.
He was evolving again!
S-rank passive skill—Imperfect Gene—Activated!
In the blink of an eye, the two-headed dinosaur humanoid transformed into an upright Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Still bearing his human head on its chest, Doctor Calamity grinned maniacally.
"Your abilities are indeed impressive... but ultimately, you're no match for my greatest experiment—the Perfect Dinosaur Gene!
"My genes can adapt to anything. This is my new form—one that exists solely to counter you!"
[Name: Doctor Calamity - Adaptive Form]
[Strength: 50]
[Constitution: 100]
[Agility: 30]
[Spirit: 30]
[Skills: Imperfect Gene (S-Rank), Hardened Flesh (A-Rank), Bloodthirsty Fusion (A-Rank)]
[Description: A mutated dinosaur form designed specifically to counter certain abilities.]
Staring at Dr. Calamity, whose form had drastically changed, with his attributes undergoing violent transformation and even his skills shifting along with them, Qin Ming's face darkened.
Especially when he saw that Dr. Calamity's Constitution had reached 100 points—what an outrageous figure!
Instinctively stepping back, Qin Ming flung out a blood ball. Seeing this, Dr. Calamity didn't move at all, letting the blood ball strike his body.
With a muffled boom, the blood ball exploded on impact—but it didn't even scratch his skin, let alone cause any damage.
His defense had been pushed to the extreme!
And it wasn't just that he remained uninjured. As his body was stained with blood, Dr. Calamity's skin wriggled, and the blood slowly seeped into his flesh.
A special ability! Blood Devouring! Healing by Absorbing Blood!
Dr. Calamity, who had once been severely wounded by blood attacks, was now able to completely ignore them—and even absorb the blood to heal!
Grinning fiercely, Dr. Calamity strode forward with heavy steps toward Qin Ming.
All the while, Qin Ming relentlessly bombarded him, yet his body didn't even flinch.
His terrifying Constitution, combined with an A-rank defensive skill, had turned Dr. Calamity into the ultimate meat shield—his defense even surpassing that of the Tank before!
Having finally reached Qin Ming despite the relentless attacks, Dr. Calamity suddenly lunged at him. Qin Ming swiftly dodged, but Dr. Calamity began wildly swinging his arms in a frenzied chase.
His two thick, dinosaur-like claws slashed at the walls and floor, leaving deep gashes.
The two sides clashed—one attacking ferociously, the other weaving through with agility—but after a prolonged battle, neither could overpower the other.
Qin Ming had struck Dr. Calamity over twenty times, yet the damage was negligible—he simply couldn't break through his defense.
Dr. Calamity, on the other hand, managed to land several hits on Qin Ming, only to awkwardly discover that he, too, couldn't inflict any real damage!
As his body mutated, his Constitution had dramatically increased—but this had caused his Strength to drop. Against Qin Ming's damage immunity, he had lost the ability to break through his defenses!
Having gained experience fighting such a super tank, Qin Ming realized that brute force was futile. Instead, he leapt onto Dr. Calamity's back and forcibly tore off the grenades and explosives strapped there.
As the timer began ticking, Dr. Calamity's face turned pale in shock. How could a "normal" person carry such things? He frantically reached back, trying to pry the explosives off his back.
However, having transformed into a muscular beast, he encountered the legendary "macho man dilemma"—his swollen muscles now prevented his hands from reaching his own back!
With a deafening BOOM, flames engulfed the entire room. Qin Ming, who had hurriedly leaped away, was still in midair when the shockwave sent him flying.
Struggling to his feet, he found the room had been completely reduced to rubble. Amidst the swirling smoke, a lone figure stood tall.
Dr. Calamity—despite having absorbed the close-range explosion of three C4 charges—was still alive!
His body, covered in wounds, was slowly healing, and his entire form was twisting and warping.
In just the blink of an eye, he had transformed from a massive, fearsome dinosaur-like beast into a gaunt yet still tall and deformed monster.
Especially his arms—they had grown to a terrifying length, with fingers as sharp as short blades.
He was mutating again!
Watching Dr. Calamity slowly rise from the smoke, Qin Ming's eyes twitched uncontrollably.
He could swear—this Dr. Calamity was utterly abnormal! In the original game storyline, although he could transform, his transformation was never this outrageous—nor did he possess adaptive evolution!
This guy might have obtained some gene artifact not belonging to this world—and through research, perfected his own genetic technology!
Under Qin Ming's wary gaze, Dr. Calamity swiftly completed his mutation. He suddenly raised his head, took a deep breath, and, feeling his new body, broke into a dazzling smile.
"Forcing me to evolve repeatedly... I have to admit, your strength is impressive. But no matter how strong you are, you're still just a human! My body, however, is that of an artificially created god! Even if you defeat me a hundred, a thousand times, I will keep evolving infinitely for you to see!"
Grinning savagely, Dr. Calamity's eyes burned with near-mad brilliance as he glared at Qin Ming.
"This! Is the perfect fusion of dinosaur genes and alien blood!"

Before Qin Ming could fully grasp the implications of Dr. Calamity's new evolution, his figure suddenly flickered and vanished from sight.
Qin Ming's pupils contracted. Just as he prepared to raise his arms in defense, his opponent's attack had already reached him!
Dr. Calamity's razor-sharp claws swept across, instantly slashing into Qin Ming's chest—three deep wounds tore open, and the sheer force of the blow sent Qin Ming flying.
Rolling as he landed, Qin Ming struggled to his feet and looked up at the rapidly approaching enemy—only to find that Dr. Calamity was now dragging afterimages behind him, closing the distance with terrifying speed!
A second targeted evolution—Speed + Armor Penetration!
