In fact, at the beginning, he also doubted whether these abilities grew along with his own growth, but he later found out that it was not the case.
Because over such a long period of time, his size has grown from just over three meters to seven meters tall.
But his own ability, which originally belonged to King Cobra, has never appeared to grow with his body.
Also, these abilities are essentially related to the genes he knew in his previous life. For now, let's treat them as genes.
But it shouldn't be entirely genes. He vaguely remembered a little knowledge from his previous life: there are about 20,000 to 30,000 genes in the human body. These genes are collectively called a genome, the human genome.
If these abilities were truly genetic, then the human ability template would not have only had a few abilities, but tens of thousands.
But what is worthy of recognition is that it should be more or less related to genes, so Shirakawa will treat it as genes for the time being.
Can the genes of this creature grow as the host grows?
Bai Chuan only thought for a moment before decisively rejecting it.
How can this be!
These represent how the abilities of genes can grow and change so easily.
If there is growth, then there is only one situation!
That is, the information stored in the genes in his body has a better expression structure.
Only then will growth in capabilities occur. So why did he naturally develop some new abilities now?
So what do they have in common?
Bai Chuan thought about it carefully and found that two of these three times were born shortly after he evolved.
Only the scales at LV2 appeared naturally over half a year because his scales had grown so rapidly that his scales could not keep up with his size.
He vaguely remembered another piece of knowledge he had seen in his previous life: genes can mutate by chance, and most of the factors that affect genetic mutations are environmental changes and internal cell division.
Cell division is not difficult to understand. Every time he evolves, there will definitely be a large number of cell divisions.
Then there was the emergence of Agile LV1 and now the emergence of Tough Tail LV1. Is it possible that because he has too much ability to evolve, the various information in his body is too rich, and thus he has more or less absorbed some of the characteristics of the original owner of the gene during this evolution?
No wonder he thinks so, but the ability of Tough Tail LV1 that appears this time is too obvious, that is, the ability comes from the Caiman ability model, and what he strengthened this time is the ability of the Caiman.
Among the abilities he had strengthened before, Bai Chuan thought about it and found that there seemed to be no ability model for this ability.
In other words, this possibility is extremely high.
As for another variation, environmental factors that affect genetic variation include external radiation stimulation, temperature factors and chemical stimulation.
And during the time when his scale LV2 appeared, he happened to have the radiation stimulation from the external factors that caused genetic mutation.
During that six months, in order to quickly accumulate points, he was in a situation where food was very abundant day and night. At that time, before going to bed every night, he had to activate the crazy digestion that came with the panel.
And because my own absorption capacity was not strong enough at that time. In fact, although part of that energy was absorbed by the panel and converted into points, there was still a large part that was constantly escaping from his body.
This constantly escaping energy gave his scales LV2 the birth and provided a high-energy environmental stimulus.
Thinking about it this way, Baichuan felt more and more likely.
Whether it is or not, he will know when he has the opportunity to test it in the future.
At least there is a direction now.
Now that one of the original doubts has been solved to some extent, even Bai Chuan feels relieved.
He gently shook the tip of his tail standing in front of his eyes. The next moment he looked at the big tree not far away, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.
"Snapped!"
The wind roared, and a whip-like black shadow swept across and hit the trunk of the tree hard, causing the tree to rustle and drop countless branches and leaves.
At the same time, a slight smash mark appeared on the tree trunk.
Seeing this, Bai Chuan was of course very dissatisfied. The power was still too weak.
It seems that he has thought too much. A mere Tough Tail LV1 can make his tail of such a huge body flexible, which is actually quite remarkable.
But if you want him to be able to use it as an attack method, it is far from enough. Not to mention that the speed is too slow, and the hitting force alone may not hurt the target. It can only be said to be barely usable.
Bai Chuan smacked his lips in regret.
Fortunately, it was for free, so he didn't feel disappointed.
After testing his new body, he headed straight into the forest. As he crawled meter by meter, his body slowly disappeared from the air again.
And compared to the past where there were obvious traces, now his invisibility is even more subtle.
Now that the injury has healed, he is afraid that he will have to eat a lot.
Otherwise, I would be sorry for his misery during this time.
…
After eating and drinking, Baichuan did not go back to the cave, but plunged directly into the river and followed the direction of the current.
He has delayed enough time due to various factors, and it is time for him to leave.
After only six days passed along the river, Bai Chuan no longer knew where he was floating.
But he had a feeling that he was going in the wrong direction? because……
What he saw in front of him was no longer a bottomless river that could completely hide him, but a dense forest swamp that could not be seen to the edge.
The dim environment was like a thick fog that would never dissipate. Coupled with the tall trees, the sky could not be seen at a glance.
The ground was wet and muddy, with occasional puddles in some places.
Various insect poisons pass by.
It was obvious that this was a dark, muddy, dense forest swamp.
The river he was in ran through this dense forest. Although the water had become shallow and could hardly hide his huge snake body in some places, the river was still there.
At this moment, he, a monster like a snake and a dragon, was staying at the junction of the two, standing there quietly and watching.
For a moment, he didn't know what to say, so he could only silently raise his head and look at the sky speechlessly.
He may also need to evolve an ability that can distinguish distance locations, such as "magnetic field induction"?
Unfortunately, he only knows that it is found in sharks and pigeons, but he has not encountered pigeons so far. And what about sharks? It's in the sea...
This encounter suddenly reminded Bai Chuan of a joke in his previous life. If this joke were placed here, it would be:
I need to go to the ocean, but I don't know the way.
Then go get the shark's ability!
But the shark is in the sea, and I don’t know how to get to the sea.
Then go get the shark...
