Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start

Chapter 714: Chapter 357: Mutant Virus: Elf Forest

Extreme South.

A metal disk flew recklessly at a speed close to five Mach, the journey was extremely quiet, with no interruptions.

Even when some Divine Envoys sensed the presence of Baiyi’s Spiritual Power, they decisively tore open a spatial rift to leave.

At this critical moment, unless it was a God with Mighty Divine Power, they were unwilling to waste their strength in a confrontation with Baiyi.

In the Mutated Zone and Catastrophe Zone, even if there were Legendary Lords, they quietly reduced their presence under Baiyi’s current World Legend Level of 67 with his Spiritual Power that was powerful enough to cause unease for their very beings.

Baiyi casually marked a few Legendary Mutated Zones.

He continued flipping through the pages of the book.

The most intuitive display of Modified Academic Ability was the ”Madness Transformation,” a transformation Baiyi was very fond of, though it had one drawback.

With Baiyi’s current application of Materials and transformation technology, he could indeed elevate the power of Madness·Bloom to Legendary Level.

But there was an embarrassing situation: the City Defense Mecha Federation had a total of 104 units, equivalent to 104 Legendaries.

Moreover, Baiyi could now build A Series City Defense Mecha, meaning that a one-time Legendary transformation didn’t seem to have much of an impact.

What Baiyi now needed to research was the Legendary Modified Legion, which was the real deal. Even if it only had attributes, a Legendary entity was still extremely powerful.

After all, the birth of a Legendary is very difficult; how many people are in the entire Federation, and how many Legendaries are there?

So even if it takes ten Modified Legendaries to defeat one normal Legendary with a specialty, it would still be worthwhile.

Once a scale of Legendary Modified creatures forms, any enemies below the level of a God will pose no threat.

This is evident from looking at the Star Federation, which directly built 400 A Series City Defense Mecha, stabilizing that place for nearly 500 years.

Mutated Zones or Catastrophe Zones are just clouds.

However, the higher the quality of transformation, the more cost becomes an issue.

It’s not about Gold Coins, though Gold Coin is indeed an Extraordinary Material and has certain value.

But since it is a currency, it cannot cover the costs of all materials, such as the extremely rare Soul Crystal Core on the market, which cannot be bought with money alone.

Here is where help is needed from Midri, who now needs to learn and oversee the Rules of the Demon Realm dimension.

With a time flow rate of 2000 times, as long as she is given seeds, there is a high probability of filling many transformation gaps.

The only trouble remains those materials that are not naturally forming or have extremely stringent natural conditions.

There is also...

Zero: ”A message from the Miracle Guard Brigade arrived; in half a month, a Star Messenger will visit as an envoy of the Alchemy Sage.”

Baiyi paused slightly, ceasing his thoughts: ”Got it.”

It wasn’t delivered through players...

Has the side of the Star Federation begun to guard against players? Very perceptive...

Pondering, Baiyi raised his hand and pointed, immense Energy rushed into the temporary aircraft below him. As a light barrier rose, the space began to wrinkle, and spatial traversal resumed.

Soon, just one more hour of traversal, and he should reach the destination. It is indeed far, but Baiyi is quite looking forward to it because according to ancient records, he is heading to a place where a God once disappeared.

Baiyi, and this God had some intersection with Baiyi, just unsure what the legendary Elf Forest looks like now.

Could it be some legacy of the Goddess of Life?

-----------------

”Huff~ Huff~”

”Roar~”

Thud, thud, thud...

The quick and stumbling footsteps, heavy breath sounds, and the occasional low growl of a beast traversed this forest.

Despair filled Wenster’s eyes; his physical strength had reached its limit.

The Magical Beast behind him emitted a low growl as if playing with its prey, waiting for it to collapse.

This was the Elf Forest.

Once the sanctum of the Elves, but now, despite being spring, this immense forest spanning a diameter of ten thousand kilometers showed no signs of life. Instead, the trees were withering, and the vegetation mutating.

The original dwelling of life is now filled with decay.

By survival bias, in such a large forest, as long as the Abyss does not select this area, some creatures will always survive amidst such pollution.

Wenster, with his green hair, was a male elf belonging to the Life Tribe.

Clearly, this survivor was about to become someone else’s prey.

He felt hopeless; had it not been for the shuddering dream yesterday, he wouldn’t have thought of finding a new place to live and would not have ended up in this plight.

It seemed that he wouldn’t die by the hands of those scarlet eyes in his Dream Realm but would instead be killed by a mutated Magical Beast.

His footsteps staggered, and he fell forward.

The scent of somewhat decayed earth filled his nostrils. Exhausting his strength, he flipped over, gazing at the azure sky above the withering trees, suddenly feeling that life was utterly meaningless.

From birth till now, it was either hiding or on the path to hiding.

He felt immensely tired.

Being consumed now didn’t seem entirely unacceptable.

What a pity, though—he hadn’t met the Goddess yet, even though there were some clues already....

”What a pity...”

A low murmur arose. He propped up his unbelievably fatigued body, slowly sitting up and leaning against a dead tree, feeling the lifelessness behind him.

He let out a bitter laugh: ”Unable to heal you all...then perhaps withering together with you wouldn’t be so bad.”

Murmuring softly, he closed his eyes slowly; hunger and extreme fatigue overwhelmed his body and consciousness. At this stage, a bit of more pain wouldn’t matter.
