Chapter 285: Chapter 188: Patchwork Monster Wearing Human Skin (Part 2)

Even though to stronger beings at higher levels, that is, in the eyes of humans, both fleas and ants are just insignificant creatures that can be crushed easily. But for the ants, isn’t dealing with fleas a piece of cake?

"That’s not a correct analogy!"

Some viewers in the chat pointed out Pan Yang’s mistake, stating that in "Global Evolution," evolution cannot be crudely understood as a flea turning into an ant, but rather as a baby turning into Tyson!

It’s still the same species, but the strength and combat ability are completely transformed.

Of course!

This refers to the first evolution.

In "Global Evolution," there is a notion that the path of evolution has an endpoint, visible when opening the panel, and after nine evolutions, one can reach the end.

However, what changes the additional eight evolutions bring about, no one knows, as no one has experienced it yet.

The only reference available is the promotional CGI animation scene where the protagonist Chen Yun transforms into a Flood Dragon.

From this, it can be deduced that after evolving to a higher level, the character controlled by the player, i.e., the protagonist Chen Yun, can no longer be called "human."

"That’s when the bloodline system comes into play, and different bloodline combinations and evolution routes yield different final evolutions..."

Pan Yang pondered and thought the game’s level design is quite interesting, with great playability.

Almost every bloodline and evolution route is worth trying.

If you’re tired of one evolution route, you can switch to another. With so many routes and a variety of bloodlines, you couldn’t possibly get bored even after playing for ten years.

After consuming a monkey Fierce Beast earlier, Pan Yang gained 0.1% of monkey bloodline, enhancing some of his dodge attributes.

He planned to follow an agility-based path.

This means choosing evolution options that all select dodge or speed-related special talents, aiming to incarnate as a reincarnation of "The Flash."

But when he unexpectedly acquired Wild Boar bloodline, it increased his strength, sparking a thought: could these bloodline effects be stacked?

Is there a limit?

0.1% of Bloodline Power may sound trivial, but if one amasses hundreds or a thousand types of Bloodline Power, what then would be the effect?

"You’re playing with numbers!"

"If you gather a thousand types of 0.1% bloodline power, are you still human? More like a stitched-together monster?"

"Hahaha! You’ve got every bloodline on you but human, right?"

"A true embodiment of mixed heritage!"

The audience in the live broadcast found Pan Yang’s speculation amusing; indeed, Pan Yang has an extraordinary talent for creating entertaining livestream content.

However, achieving this idea would be exceedingly difficult...

The bloodline system in "Global Evolution" was created as a special drop to assist the evolution mechanism.

Simply put, by hunting Fierce Beasts and consuming flesh, one can gain a part of the Evolution Level while having a "very low probability" of obtaining the beast’s Bloodline Power.

This very low probability is roughly about 1%!

So far, Pan Yang has acquired bloodlines from two Fierce Beasts, which is already considered quite lucky. Many people haven’t even activated the bloodline system yet, with at most just one Bloodline Power.

Want to gather a hundred, or even a thousand types of Bloodline Power, and then evolve?

Are you out of your mind?

Let’s not even talk about whether "Global Evolution" has that many Fierce Beasts and spirit monsters; even if it does, how long would it take to grind for all those drops with such a low probability?

"There really are a thousand types!"

Someone in the comments told Pan Yang that they just checked the Tianba Official Website for information, and according to the official game background and data, there are 2147 types of Fierce Beasts, spirit monsters, and Sea Beasts.

The sheer variety is more than enough!

Yet the issue remains: Bloodline Power drops randomly, and having about a 1% chance is just too low to even imagine how many monsters one would need to grind to collect so many bloodlines.

"No need to gather everything..."

"With 0.1% Bloodline Power, you only need to collect a thousand types of bloodlines, and then you can evolve to see whether the character is still human."

Pan Yang said this and seemed to have a sudden thought: "Hey wait! If I remember correctly, the concentration of Bloodline Power can be increased, right?"

He opened the system UI for a glance.

Yes!

The bloodline system’s introduction section clearly states that various Bloodline Powers can be increased to a maximum of 5%, granting the ability to temporarily transform into the corresponding Fierce Beast.

"100 divided by 5 equals 20..."

Pan Yang furrowed his brows while doing the math and still found it a bit exaggerated; acquiring 20 types of Bloodline Power is a lot easier than a thousand.

However, to raise each of these 20 Bloodline Powers to a 5% concentration is still quite a daunting and challenging task.

"Forget it, it’s too terrifying."

Despite the enticing idea, Pan Yang thought that if one truly wanted to accomplish this, they would have to grind in the game for 200 to 300 hours, and that seems far-fetched.

It’s not worth it!

Spending 200 to 300 hours just to verify whether "the protagonist is still a human" seems utterly pointless.

Even if it turns out the protagonist is not human, so what? Ba wouldn’t award him a "Global Evolution Great Scientist" honor for it, so what’s the point?

"Forget it, let’s continue with the tasks."

"Guo Mo has already evolved to the first rank; I can’t fall behind, and before I finish streaming today, I must become a Rank One Evolver!"

At this point, Pan Yang regained his fighting spirit, grabbed the "alloy battle blade" he just bought in the base city, and headed into the wilderness.

The new battle blade works like a charm! 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

This weapon alone doubled Pan Yang’s combat power, making cutting through Fierce Beasts who hadn’t evolved even once as easy as slicing through vegetables.

Time to face the Boss now!

The first Boss is a Wild Boar King, its size comparable to a small hill, with an incredibly powerful visual impact.

Unfortunately, it’s not very smart, and despite its massive size, its actual strength is average, making it relatively easy to deal with.

"Wuhu, Evolution Level is enough!"

After defeating the Wild Boar King and consuming its meat by the campfire, combined with the previously accumulated 94% Evolution Level, Pan Yang can finally evolve.

What he didn’t expect was...

This Wild Boar King turned out to be so generous that after consuming the boar meat, he gained Bloodline Power, and this time a whole 2%.

Simply too lucky!

With the drop rate of Bloodline Power being so low, the increase in power it brings should not be underestimated. With 2% + 0.1% Wild Boar bloodline, a sum total of 2.1%, his strength soared several times over.

To say he leaped at once is no exaggeration.

"Does Boss drop such high-concentration Bloodline Power? Then I feel there’s hope for the mixed-blood stitched monster! Just have to farm more Bosses..."

Pan Yang calculated the combat time.

Killing small mobs is convenient, but eliminating a single Rank One Wild Boar Fierce Beast takes at least 30 to 45 seconds.

Defeating a Boss takes about 5 to 10 minutes if executed flawlessly.

It seems like Boss takes more effort, but these creatures drop much higher-concentration Bloodline Powers! One equals the equivalent of 20! Counting the probability of acquiring Bloodline Power, fighting Bosses is much more worthwhile.

"Maybe I should give it a try?"

Originally, Pan Yang had given up on this idea, but after finding out the Wild Boar King provided a full 2% bloodline concentration, he couldn’t resist the urge anymore.

Plus, he’s really curious about what would happen if the protagonist has 5% Wild Boar bloodline, 5% Monkey bloodline... all the way up to 20 types of bloodlines gathered. Would he still be human?

If not a human, what would he evolve into?

An anomaly? A patched creature?

Or perhaps... an Ancient God too dreadful to behold?

Oh man! The more he thought about it, the more excited he got!

Pan Yang immediately decided to go for it! Even if it means wasting some time, he has to see what will eventually evolve.

Anyway, "Star Emperor" is in an off-season with no tournaments to watch, climbing ranks isn’t motivating right now, so spending a few days on this game isn’t a bad idea.

By some chance, if he does manage to create something phenomenal, wouldn’t that be a huge gain? Wouldn’t that make for great content?
