Chapter 283
Chapter 283 Another New Species
In the dark cave, a bowl-sized snake was lying quietly.
If he had seen this before, Yang Lin would have turned around and ran.
But after seeing the two giant anacondas, he was much calmer at the moment.
After all, compared with the two giant anacondas, the one in front of him was just a small loach.
However, judging from the general shape, the lying snake should be the baby anaconda mentioned in the system task.
And the words that the male giant anaconda said next also confirmed this.
"Human, what you see in front of you is our child. From its birth to now, it has been unable to walk."
"And we can feel that its life seems to be passing away."
"If you can, please save it."
Listening to the words of the male giant anaconda, Yang Lin finally confirmed that the big snake in front of him was their baby.
Just as it said, the baby anaconda in front of him looked extremely weak despite its huge size.
In order to further confirm what was wrong with its body, Yang Lin first found the light spot representing the baby anaconda on the exploration radar.
A line of information appeared in front of him the next second.
[Giant anaconda cub (severely ill) 2 months cold]
"Seriously ill? Could it be some congenital disease caused by radiation?"
At this moment, Yang Lin couldn't help but think of the information he had seen before about the two adult giant anacondas.
There is no unified view in the biological world on whether radiation will cause mutations, but it is obvious that radiation can cause some diseases.
Especially when the mother lives in a radiation environment for a long time, the offspring will most likely develop lesions, the most common of which is leukemia.
"The baby anaconda won't have leukemia."
Thinking of this, Yang Lin, who was originally full of confidence, couldn't help but murmur.
If it is an injury, it is likely to be cured by awakening the talent.
But this is the first time he has encountered an animal with a terminal illness. If the awakened talent cannot cure its serious illness, it will be difficult to deal with.
In order to confirm further, he quickly shot another ray of insight light at the baby anaconda.
[Giant baby anaconda (overdose of radiation, gene collapse)]
"Huh?"
Seeing this line of information, Yang Lin's brows immediately twisted.
Now he can clearly know two pieces of news.
The good news is that the baby anaconda does not have leukemia.
The bad news is that it is more serious than leukemia.
Before obtaining the system, Yang Lin had never heard of the term gene collapse.
This term does not exist in the modern medical system.
But so far, he has encountered such a situation twice.
One was a little golden-haired tiger born in the Southern Yunnan Zoo.
The reason for its gene collapse is that humans let two species that should not have been combined together.
And the baby anaconda today is the second case he has encountered, and the cause is obvious.
Under the premise that its parents have been exposed to a lot of radiation, as a cub, it has been exposed to radiation all the time, and its fragile body obviously cannot bear it.
"It seems that I can only try the light of evolution."
Yang Lin inexplicably remembered the last time he rescued the little golden-haired tiger.
Seeing the painful look on the face of the baby anaconda, Yang Lin did not hesitate immediately, and the light of evolution skill that had not been used for a long time turned into a ray and shone directly on the baby anaconda.
With the irradiation of the light of evolution, a trace of changes that could not be seen by the naked eye quickly occurred in the body of the baby anaconda.
At the same time, its body surface began to change gradually.
The most obvious point is that its originally mottled pattern disappeared instantly.
It was like fading.
In less than a minute, the scales all over the body turned snow-white.
What surprised Yang Lin even more was that two small feet grew on its abdomen.
Looking at the hind limbs that grew out of thin air, Yang Lin was stunned for a while before reacting.
"Is this the hind limb that the anaconda lost after evolution? Is this considered evolution or degeneration?"
Before he could figure out this relationship, another change in the little guy soon caught his attention again.
Following his gaze, he saw a big bump suddenly appear on the top of the baby anaconda's originally smooth forehead.
When the big bump became the size of a fist, it finally stopped growing.
Looking at this scene, a word popped up in Yang Lin's mind-bone hyperplasia.
From being irradiated by the light of evolution to the baby anaconda's head growing a bump, the whole process lasted for about 5 minutes.
After seeing all the changes were over, the baby anaconda, who was originally weak and unable to even lift his head, suddenly regained his vitality.
However, the fact that there was no prompt sound in his mind that the task was completed made Yang Lin wonder.
"Could it be that its disease has not been cured yet?"
In order to confirm whether this was the reason why the task could not be completed, Yang Lin immediately shot out a beam of insight light again.
However, when the first line of information appeared, he was stunned.
【?】
"? What does this mean? Where's the name? Why is it gone? Is there a bug in the system?"
Looking at the huge question mark in the frame in front of him, a question mark also popped up in Yang Lin's head.
And at this time, the system prompt sounded.
"Congratulations to the host for witnessing the birth of a new species, and 400 achievement points are awarded."
"In order to facilitate the inclusion of this species, please name the new species."
Hearing this system prompt sound, Yang Lin came back to his senses.
Obviously, after being exposed to the light of evolution, the errors caused by excessive radiation have been corrected.
The genes of the baby anaconda have also undergone a huge change on the previous basis, and it is no longer in the category of anaconda.
After understanding this, Yang Lin quickly remembered that there is such a saying in the traditional mythology of Longguo.
"A snake becomes a python after 500 years, a python becomes an anaconda after 500 years, an anaconda becomes a Jiao after 500 years, a Jiao becomes a Chi after 500 years, a Chi becomes a Qiu after 500 years, and a Qiu becomes a Yinglong after 500 years."
"Since you evolved from an anaconda, let's name you Jiao."
As Yang Lin finished speaking, the information bar with the question mark was immediately corrected.
[Young Jiao (weak state)]
Seeing this, Yang Lin immediately understood why the task had not been judged completed.
"Forget it, I'll be a good person to the end, let's see what suitable talents you have first."
While speaking, Yang Lin looked at the talent panel of the baby Jiao.
[Brute Force Strangulation (Golden Talent) Activation requires 5 talent points]
[Making Trouble (Legendary Talent) Activation requires 10 talent points]
[Clouds and Rain (Legendary Talent) Activation requires 10 talent points]
......
At just one glance, Yang Lin felt a little numb.
This is not a Jiao, this is clearly a weakened version of a dragon.
