Chapter 603 - 397: Blood Rebirth (2)
In the next moment, black blood seeped out,
dripping onto the ground.
The texture of this blood had completely turned into a muddy sludge, extremely viscous,
and the instant it touched the ground, it suddenly emitted a faint black light,
beginning to devour the surrounding materials.
In just half a second, a deep pit was corroded into the ground,
and the volume of the blood rapidly expanded two to three times, starting to writhe.
Wang Ye’s pupils contracted slightly as he observed the changes in the blood with great interest.
The wound on his wrist had already healed within 0.1 seconds.
The rate of recovery was many times faster than before.
At this moment, the blood on the ground was frantically devouring the surrounding energy. But due to the limited usable elements in the floor, the development speed of the blood was not very fast, barely growing to the size of a basketball after ten seconds.
Nevertheless, it had begun to take the initial form of a biological entity. Wang Ye could clearly see the blood’s interior developing a core organ similar to a heart, and a neural network resembling a brain appeared in the head, but they were still overly simplistic. Even the body of any random rabbit in nature was infinitely more complex than this.
Yet the evolution speed of this blood biological entity was extraordinarily fast, and after another ten seconds, its size doubled again, with the structure of its internal organs beginning to take shape, resembling primates both in internal structure and external form. The only difference was that it remained pitch black and faceless.
Wang Ye speculated that this creature was likely evolving in accordance with his own physical form, and given enough energy, it could possibly evolve to a level slightly inferior to himself.
He murmured, "So it’s a kind of doppelganger ability..."
However, Wang Ye carefully felt that he seemingly had no means of controlling this blood biological entity, which meant that once it grew and became whole, it could potentially become a threat to him.
As the blood was about to evolve further into a complete creature,
Wang Ye suddenly struck it down,
his fist crashing onto the black biological entity.
His supersonic punch, like a meteor, fell upon the black biological entity.
Boom!!!!
In an instant, countless black liquid splashed like bombs exploding.
But instead of sticking to the surrounding walls,
the liquid adhered to Wang Ye’s arm at the moment of explosion,
absorbed back into his body.
Wang Ye squinted his eyes; if he hadn’t struck in time to kill this mass of blood, it might eventually grow into a catastrophic entity capable of killing thousands. Of course, since this blood came from his body, its growth limit naturally wouldn’t surpass him.
"As I thought... my blood has evolved to extract energy materials, and it can already independently grow to a certain scale, but the organisms developed from it don’t seem to possess my consciousness... meaning I’m not yet capable of Blood Rebirth’s key element—cell information storage. It’s likely because my main body still exists, preventing cells from developing a second conscious entity, otherwise, it may backfire on myself."
Wang Ye muttered softly, analyzing carefully. Truth be told about this aspect of evolution, he really did not have the slightest clue. It had already completely touched the blind spot of his knowledge, and existing human science could not provide a reasonable solution.
However, there was something that caught Wang Ye’s attention earlier. The moment he reabsorbed the blood biological entity, his body gained an enormous amount of energy, almost equivalent to the energy he could obtain by basking under the Sun for half an hour,
This trait prompted Wang Ye to speculate whether, when he lacks energy, he can scatter his blood in all directions to absorb energy in parallel processes?
Like farming; although he gains nothing, and may even lose money in the process of nurturing livestock, when the livestock is fattened to a certain weight, harvesting and selling them can bring in a huge amount of money at once.
Before mastering controllable Nuclear Fusion technology, this ability could serve as a means of short-term energy replenishment, especially useful in battles, since the blood can not only absorb energy but also act as a combat entity, countering nearby combat units.
Although he currently has no means of controlling his blood doppelgangers, since they are his doppelgangers and capable biological entities, they certainly possess instinctive crisis response mechanisms.
This means that when attacked, they would instinctively counterattack, including that doppelganger attempting a counterpunch as Wang Ye punched it just now, though the doppelganger was not yet fully developed,
So as long as he uses them appropriately, he can leverage these doppelgangers in battle.
Just as Wang Ye was pondering,
all of a sudden,
there was a knock on the door.
Wang Ye sensed the person outside,
realizing it was Li Weimin,
and so he said, "Come in."
Li Weimin pushed the door open, and upon seeing the deep pit in the ground, he was instantly startled,
"Whoa, what happened?!"
Wang Ye calmly replied, "It’s nothing, I accidentally corroded the floor while practicing. Remember to get someone to repair it."
Li Weimin was full of questions, "Accidentally corroded it? Alright... I won’t ask more about your affairs."
Wang Ye: "What’s the matter?"
Li Weimin thought for a moment and said, "Wang Ye, I’ve spoken to the leaders, and given the immense impact of this challenge, Anta intends to increase your annual endorsement fee by fifty million, breaking past a hundred million in total endorsements. Additionally, this challenge and various other partnerships have brought in another 5.1 billion, to put it simply, you’ve become rich. Your current personal circulating fund is just as massive as that of a listed company!"
Wang Ye nodded, "Understood, well done."
Li Weimin’s mouth twitched, "Why so little reaction? This is almost ten billion in income."
Wang Ye replied helplessly, "Do you think I’m still at a stage where I need money..."
Not to mention whether he needs money or not.
Just with his Combat Power, is there anything in this world he can’t acquire?
It’s just that he currently doesn’t plan on becoming a Homelander,
Even if he wanted to, almost no one could stop him.
Although modern technology still poses some life threats,
the threat level isn’t high.
Unless all of humanity plans a mutual destruction mentality to kill Wang Ye,
they can’t truly put an end to him.
Moreover, Wang Ye’s current Reconstruction of All Things Ability,
can also easily create hundreds of kilograms of diamonds,
if auctioned off, they could exchange for a hundred-billion fortune.
Of course, these are just theoretical hypotheses and assumptions,
but it already shows that money has nearly lost its meaning to Wang Ye.
Hearing this, Li Weimin was slightly taken aback,
but on second thought, it indeed made sense,
Even though he isn’t familiar with Wang Ye,
just knowing the fact that he was unscathed after falling at seven Mach,
was enough to infer from the tip of the iceberg how terrifying Wang Ye’s full strength could be.
"Alright, so what do you plan to do next?" Li Weimin decisively changed the subject, not wanting to delve too deeply into this topic as it might lead him to question his own existence.
"Me? Of course, I’ll go abroad to continue completing the next challenge," Wang Ye said. This challenge had already consumed too much of his time, and he didn’t plan to stay here any longer. After his strength improved, he was eager to find a way to test it.
The task given by Old Yi is just suitable for testing his capabilities.
"Leaving at this time isn’t appropriate, right..." Li Weimin wanted to suggest that solidifying the current popularity would bring more commercial value, even just shooting a few ads could earn them a fortune.
