After leaving the underground clinic, Lu Ping returned to Liaoyuan Food Store.
This place now looks like his residence and office. Jin Donghao and his daughter originally lived here. The first floor was a store and the second floor was a bedroom.
The mess in the gang was all left to Yan Xuan to deal with, and Lu Ping was focusing more on himself at this time.
Since he came to this world, he finally had a relatively less urgent and critical time. Lu Ping decided to take this opportunity to sort out his thoughts and formulate a scientific plan to improve his strength.
First of all, Lupine cannot use the strengthening methods in this world. Gene potions will be directly absorbed by the biological editor when they enter his body. Mechanical modifications are often tailored to the host, and when Lupine loads the reconfiguration, But their body shape often changes greatly.
Unless there is some kind of mechanical prosthesis that can change with him and always adapt, otherwise, mechanical transformation can also be ruled out.
Lupine's biggest reliance is naturally the creature editor.
In the game "Prokaryotic Evolution", players can create creatures as large as whales and as small as bacteria, with a huge span. The game map also imitates the real earth environment, with land and oceans, volcanoes and glaciers, sky and underground rivers...
Players have long concluded that no matter what kind of top-level creature you create, it is impossible to take over all game maps and kill all hostile creatures.
There is a saying that "there is no strongest, only the most suitable"!
Suitability here refers to adaptability to the environment and adaptability to the enemy! Mountain overlords as powerful as the armored demon ape are also afraid of infection by powerful bacteria; the gharial, the overlord of water and land, is no match for a sand lizard on a desert map...
Therefore, Lupine never thought of creating a top-level creature and putting all abilities into it, so that it could cope with all situations.
That's what archiving is all about.
In previous lives, basically all players would create several common save files to ensure that they could move freely in different maps.
At the very least, recombinant configurations available in the three environments of sea, land and air are a must!
Lupine drummed his fingers on the counter, thoughtfully.
"On land, the current form of cattle and horses is already a good direction... Next, we only need to collect enough genes from Luxi cattle and Ili horses to create more stable armored cattle and horses."
"As long as you have the right genes, continue to improve the three-piece civilian defense set, and muscle strength, you can continue to improve along the lines of the 'Iron Armored Demon Ape' in the previous life..."
"In the water, there is currently a fish-man form, but the gills of the herring are not enough to support me from swimming far away. I need to find a more powerful oxygen exchange organ... In addition, I must also find a way to resist the toxins of hell in the water! Otherwise, underwater activities will be Empty talk.”
"As for the recombinant forms available in the sky... I haven't even scratched the surface yet. As for winged creatures, I only have the genes of the reed chicken, so I can't use them at all!"
Lupine really yearned for the feeling of being able to fly freely in the sky in reality, but it was a pity that he was still far from it.
"Some insects can fly, and I have obtained a small amount of cockroach genes before... But the biggest frustration in reality is that I have to retain the human brain." Lu Ping felt regretful when he thought of this, "That's it! I don’t have to think about the top recombinants in all small organisms and microorganism categories for the time being... I can only hope that there will be a solution in the future.”
The human brain, after all, is there in size.
Moreover, complex thinking consumes extremely high energy. When not exercising, it accounts for almost 20% of the energy consumption of the human body.
The weight of the brain only accounts for 2% of the body.
It is almost impossible for small animals such as cats and dogs to support the normal operation of such a brain. This means that the recombinant state that Lupine can load in reality is at least about the same size as a human being. It can be larger, but it must not be smaller. !
Thinking of consuming energy, Lu Ping suddenly remembered another thing.
Whether loading ordinary cows and horses, silver-scaled cows and horses, or iron-armored cow demons... Lupine will feel very hungry after the end.
The stronger the form and the longer it lasts, the more pronounced this hunger will be.
A reasonable speculation is that the various behaviors in these recombinant states consume one's own bio-energy, and bio-energy naturally needs to be replenished through eating!
But this is not a solution after all. Lu Ping is even worried that he will consume too much energy and pass out directly.
Rather than do it, Lupine decided to try it out on the spot.
"Load the reconfiguration 'Cow Horse'." Lu Ping secretly thought.
Visible to the naked eye, his body began to expand and soon turned into a strong man about 2 meters tall.
In this state, Lupine began to punch and kick, do frog jumps, push-ups, leg raises... various strenuous exercises.
Slowly, a feeling of hunger began to arise in the body!
This time, Lupine did not change back to his original form, but directly changed into his "cow and horse" form, grabbed some high-energy food from the counter and stuffed it into his mouth.
wolf!
A large number of packaging bags were scattered on the ground... Gradually, the hunger disappeared, and instead, a sense of satisfaction after overeating gradually came.
"Load the restructured 'Iron Armored Bull Demon'." Lu Ping said in his heart with solemn eyes, while telling himself over and over again to calm down.
And be prepared to cancel at any time!
His body began to expand again, directly expanding to more than three meters. Even with his waist hunched over, it reached the ceiling of the food store...
This time, without any extra action, the feeling of hunger gradually began to arise in the body.
"Eat, eat, eat! I'm so annoyed, why do you need such complicated packaging!" Lu Ping's eyes were bloodshot, as if venting his anger, he started stuffing the food on the shelf into his mouth.
Because of my big hands, it was not convenient to open the food. Later, I didn’t even tear the packaging bag, just threw it into my mouth and started chewing!
It's as if there is some serious grudge against these foods.
Lupine knew that the anger was beginning to envelope him again.
But fortunately, this time he was not in a battle, and there was no danger around him. In addition, he had prepared his mind well in advance... It seemed that he could still suppress this emotion.
In this binge of drinking and chewing, he was like a humanoid glutton, consuming dozens of kilograms of high-energy food!
The hunger finally subsided.
For the first time, Lu Ping actually felt the satisfaction of being "full" while in the form of the iron-clad bull demon!
After a while.
When Lupine finally became an ordinary person again, there seemed to be a light shining in his eyes.
"So that's it! Hahaha, that's it!"
"I have always been stuck in a misunderstanding of thinking... I always felt that a pure human form loaded with 100% human genes is my true body. I always use this form to eat and replenish energy..."
"But no! It's so wrong! A more accurate way of understanding is that 'pure human' is just one of many recombinant forms, and it is a relatively weak one... In this form, it can accumulate There is an upper limit on biological energy. How much can a person eat to survive?"
"Even if you eat until you are almost exhausted, that little energy is not enough to support the slight movement of the iron-armored bull demon form... But the converse is different. If you eat until you are exhausted in the largest form, it is enough to support the weaker form. Used for a long time..."
Lu Ping had tried this just now, when he transformed from an armored bull demon back to an ordinary cow and horse. He had indeed been active for a long time and he didn't feel hungry anymore.
"In this way, I can even create a form specifically. This form does not need to be very powerful in combat, but it must be enough to eat! The body is fat enough and huge! ... The bioenergy that this form can carry is the upper limit of my bioenergy! That's it! Determines how long the activity can continue in other forms!"
Lu Ping seemed to remember something at this time, opened the biological editor interface, and pulled out one of the "lower genes" that had been folded by himself:
[Big White Pig Gene] already possesses 6.2%.
