Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Chapter 226: Chapter 226: Six Paths Phoenix

Lin Shen and Lin Miao continued to hunt Base Variant Creatures in the desert, where Lin Miao got to witness Lin Shen’s strength and his many powerful pets.

Lin Shen indeed had many Mutated Pets that were quite strong, but there was still a gap compared to the Ascenders.

Lin Shen gave Lin Miao two Pet Launchers, and most of the Mutated Crystal Base pets were also stored inside those two Pet Launchers for Lin Miao to familiarize herself with controlling them during this time.

Once the battle with the Ascenders began, it was essential for Lin Miao to have the ability to survive.

Lin Shen himself only kept Death Powder and some ordinary Crystal Base pets, whereas others including Jiweis, Frost Swordsman, Sea Demon God General, and so on, were temporarily used by Lin Miao to help her get through this difficult time first.

Lin Miao was very intelligent by nature and her level was at Crystal Base Level. It was only because she had always managed the family business that she hardly had any actual combat experience before.

But her talent was evident as she was very quick to learn. Her ability to command multiple pets in battle far surpassed that of an average person.

Most people would be in a flurry if they had to command several pets at once, but Lin Miao could simultaneously direct more than a dozen pets in battle, and she could take care of every detail of each pet’s positioning and more.

On the twenty-third day after arriving on Realm King Planet, Lin Shen’s Base Mutation rate reached one hundred percent.

Lin Shen found a spot nearby that was free of Base Variant Creatures and asked Lin Miao to protect him while he took out the Primeval Egg given by Tu Xiaodao, swallowed it, and began ascending to Crystal Base.

As Lin Miao watched the amazing changes occurring in Lin Shen’s body, she dared not be distracted and released all the pets to stand guard around Lin Shen to prevent any accidents.

There shouldn’t have been any accidents since it seemed there were no Base Variant Creatures around.

While thinking this, Lin Miao’s gaze swept around her, but her expression suddenly changed drastically.

She saw numerous Green Crystal Warriors appearing on the sand dunes surrounding them, and they were everywhere, with numbers that seemed to exceed a thousand.

“How could this happen?” Lin Miao looked worriedly at Lin Shen, who was in the process of ascending to Crystal Base, and had no choice but to grit her teeth and set up formations with her pets.

But as more and more Green Crystal Warriors appeared, Lin Miao began to feel a sense of foreboding.

What was even more alarming was that Blue Crystal Warriors started to appear, followed by Purple Crystal Warriors, and even a very rare Red Crystal Warrior.

Lin Shen had specifically looked for Red Crystal Warriors and couldn’t find any, yet one had appeared here now.

And there was not just one Red Crystal Warrior; as more and more Green Crystal Warriors showed up, the number of Blue and Purple Crystal Warriors also increased, and two Red Crystal Warriors had already made their appearance.

The number of Green Crystal Warriors had exceeded ten thousand and was still surging out continuously.

Lin Miao’s mind raced as she thought about how to defend against the terrifying numbers of Crystal Base Warriors.

A Deep Red Warrior appeared, his body like a crystal formed from coagulated blood, shimmering with a blood-colored halo in the sunlight, and in his hand was a Blood Crystal Spear. He actually had a weapon, which the other warriors didn’t have.

With a battle cry from the Deep Red Warrior, the Green Crystal Warriors and warriors of different colors charged like a tide towards where Lin Shen was positioned.

In the more than twenty days Lin Shen had spent in the desert, he had killed wantonly, and having consumed the Base Mutation Eggs of various warriors, he had already provoked their wrath.

This ambush was clearly premeditated. As the commander of the ambush, the Deep Red Knight’s intelligence must be high; otherwise, he wouldn’t have chosen such a critical moment.

Seeing the warriors surging towards her like a tide, Lin Miao could only be thankful that the pets Lin Shen gave her were strong enough and numerous enough.

Lin Miao multitasked, controlling a host of pets to staunchly defend against the tide-like offensive.

Under Lin Miao’s command, the pets coordinated seamlessly, with front-line tanks, back-line damage dealers, and manoeuvrable pets ready to support any potential breaches.

Lin Shen’s pets were indeed strong, but if it weren’t for Lin Miao’s command, any slight breach that allowed those warriors to penetrate their ranks and disturb Lin Shen, who was in the middle of a Base Mutation, would pose a major problem.

Two Red Crystal Warriors sought to entangle Jiweis, yet Lin Miao didn’t give them the chance.

The pet army continually rotated their attacks, with each pet moving and weaving, never confined to one spot.

The Deep Red Warrior, frustrated from being unable to break through, let out an angry war roar once again.

At his roar, all the warriors seemed to go mad, their eyes bloodshot as they charged at the pet formation even more fiercely.

Lin Miao struggled to hold on. Killing the charging warriors wasn’t difficult; the challenge was to guard the utterly immobile Lin Shen and prevent any warrior from breaking through.

Fortunately, Lin Miao managed to do so; with the cooperation among her pets, she forcibly stopped wave after wave of attacks.

Seeing Lin Shen’s transformation seemed about to finish, Lin Miao let out a slight sigh of relief.

Once Lin Shen successfully ascended, they would no longer need to tangle with these warriors—they could just ride the Evil Dragon and fly away.

After all, these warriors couldn’t fly and would be helpless against them.

Not daring to relax, Lin Miao constantly scanned the battlefield while adjusting her pets’ positions.

Suddenly, Lin Miao noticed something wrong with the sand below.

Realizing something, Lin Miao rushed towards Lin Shen instantly. The ground below erupted as a deep red, seemingly blood crystal-carved giant scorpion emerged, its tail turning into a streak of blood light aiming for Lin Shen.

Lin Miao had already used all her pets to block the tidal wave of warrior attacks; she had no pets left to deploy, and with Lin Shen undergoing Ascension and unable to move, she had no choice but to stand her ground and catch the scorpion tail, which struck like lightning.

However, it was clear the scorpion tail’s strength was augmented by some skill; Lin Miao, clutching the tail, struggled to halt its powerful thrust. The tip of the tail seemed poised to pierce right into her chest.

Suddenly, a golden light blossomed from within Lin Miao’s embrace.

The scorpion tail struck against the golden light and was forcefully repelled.

The ball of golden light flew out from Lin Miao’s embrace and, swelling as if catching the wind, instantly transformed into an enormous Six-Winged Phoenix, even larger than a helicopter.

The phoenix’s golden radiance was dazzling, and with a skyward cry, it stilled the entire battlefield.

The next second, the Six Paths Phoenix flew behind Lin Miao, embracing her from the rear. Four of its wings wrapped around her body while the other two sets of wings flapped, lifting Lin Miao into the sky.

After spiraling through the air, the Six Paths Phoenix turned into a golden streak of light.

Bang Bang Bang Bang!

Like golden lightning exploding across the desert, it instantly sliced the bodies of all the warriors within several hundred meters around Lin Shen in half.

The Deep Red Giant Scorpion desperately tried to burrow back into the sand, but its tail couldn’t retract in time and was severed as well.

Atop the once battle-scarred desert, only a golden trail of light harvested life, cleaving everything in its path without giving anyone a chance to react.

Even the Red Crystal Warriors were no exception, their upper bodies were instantly separated from their lower halves.

In the blink of an eye, within a kilometer’s radius, there were no longer any intact creatures left aside from Lin Shen and those pets.
