Python Rebirth on Survival Island

Obtained the Evolution Potion and Another Upgrade

Psss!

What does a python look like when it gasps?

Indescribable.

However, judging from Ye Bei, first, it takes a meager step backward.

Then, it opens its eyes wide and hastily moves forward.

Ye Bei was trembling slightly, seemingly out of excitement and agitation.

Although he was now a snake and had fought and killed many creatures… in many ways, Ye Bei was still human.

The lid of the Golden Treasure Chest opened.

Golden light overflowed from it, spreading out in all directions.

Only Ye Bei himself could vividly see everything inside it.

The item inside this second Golden Treasure Chest was very basic. It was a glass bottle the size of a mineral water bottle, and it contained a light-blue liquid. Just looking at it, it seemed very mysterious and strange.

When Ye Bei glanced at it, large amounts of information appeared in his mind.

“Mutation Drug! The end product of the experiments that had been conducted on Research Island… it’s the only one in existence. Any living creature can gain wisdom from it just by sniffing it! This drug is capable of making 100,000 living creatures evolve at the same time!”

Yes!

This was the reason why Ye Bei had gasped.

Earlier, when he’d thought of immortality, of never dying, and also water breathing…

He’d never expected that the thing hidden in the second Golden Treasure Chest would be the potion that countless mutated beasts were eyeing.

Just by taking a whiff, one could evolve.

Such a tiny bottle could make 100,000 creatures evolve and grow wise…

If wild creatures were truly allowed to evolve, Ye Bei fathomed that human beings wouldn’t stand at the top of the food chain anymore!

The rise of beasts would be unstoppable.

“System! You said that this Mutation Drug is the end product of the research that was done here! And that there’s only one in existence… then how do you explain all the mutated beasts here? Was their evolution a failure?” Ye Bei asked in a quivering voice.

This Mutation Drug was definitely some good stuff.

With this tool at hand, Ye Bei could expand his team at any given time.

A team that was invincible.

“The scientists on Research Island didn’t succeed in producing the real Mutation Drug!” the system answered immediately. “The drug those mutated beasts absorbed isn’t even half as effective as the finished product. There’s nothing wrong with you saying that their evolution was a failure!”

Uhm…

After hearing the system’s explanation, Ye Bei wasn’t able to calm down for quite some time.

Even those whose evolution had failed could become incredibly powerful and ferocious.

In that case, if he were to devour the finished product of the Evolution Potion… what would happen? It was totally unimaginable.

At this moment, Ye Bei’s eyes were smoldering as he looked at the Potion of Evolution.

Hiss!

The next moment, he directly extended his forked tongue and was prepared to devour the entire Evolution Potion in one mouthful.

It was just that, before Ye Bei could even grab the potion, the Potion of Evolution disappeared alongside the treasure box.

“Host! The Potion of Evolution can allow 100,000 living creatures to evolve at the same time—even humans!” the system immediately explained after putting the bottle away. “For this bottle, the effects are the same for a single entity or for 100,000 entities. Consuming it like this would be an absolute waste! Besides, to ensure its safety, the system will temporarily hold the Potion of Evolution. If you want to use it, all you have to do is ask.”

Phew!

Hearing the system’s explanation, Ye Bei took a deep breath. That was way too close, he thought.

If he had actually consumed the potion in one mouthful and it had ended up not having that great of an effect on him, he would have definitely been facepalming himself.

“Then give me some for now! Once I evolve, everything else can come after…” Ye Bei said decisively.

“Very well!”

The system also didn’t hesitate. As soon as Ye Bei gave the system his decision, he could feel a faint fragrance eerily flooding his nose.

Immediately after, the aroma transformed into a wisp of incredible energy that quickly flowed through his body.

This energy was completely different from the energy he felt when he devoured his prey.

It was more gentle.

As it flowed through him, Ye Bei could feel his body and soul become more in tune with each other.

Each of his cells divided.

And there were slight changes to his body…

His entire body was undergoing a genetic reconfiguration.

One minute!

10 minutes!

30 minutes…

After half an hour went by, Ye Bei had already absorbed the entire Evolution Potion.

However, Ye Bei felt a little hesitant.

“System, this potion doesn’t feel right! I could clearly feel my body changing just now, but I don’t feel any stronger… are you sure this is the finished product of the Potion of Evolution?” Ye Bei asked promptly.

Yes, half an hour had gone by, but he hadn’t experienced any growth.

“Give your other attributes a try—for instance, your mental power and your memory,” the system said.

Hm?

Ye Bei was a little doubtful.

But he still followed the system’s suggestion.

First, he focused his mental power… then, he suddenly opened his eyes, because he realized that he could vividly perceive the changes that had taken place five kilometers away.

He could even acutely sense that… a horde of mutated beasts had surrounded the area, ready to charge over at any time.

“This is…”

“It’s similar to the power of the domain! But, Host, this ability relies entirely on mental power! The Evolution Potion has greatly improved your ability to detect things. In the beginning, this ability of yours could only sense things that were less than 500 meters away! But now, it’s a hundred times greater.”

Listening to the system’s explanation, Ye Bei couldn’t help but exclaim. “Woah!”

Then, he once again attempted to probe his memory…

He gently closed his eyes.

Then, his breathing quickened.

All his memories from when he was a human and his memories from when he was first reborn into a python up until now were all hovering inside his mind with the utmost clarity.

Even every detail from the time he’d jumped off the plane was very clear.

If Ye Bei was willing, he could even force himself to remember things that had happened when he was one or two.

“This memory…”

“To a certain extent, the strength of one’s memory depends on the development of one’s brain, and the development of one’s brain is closely related to one’s intelligence! The true use of the Evolution Potion is to increase the brain’s intelligence! For other creatures, their physical aspects have evolved, but their intelligence has only slightly changed. This is the reason for their failure. Their evolution belongs to the most inferior of types,” the system continued to explain.

Hmm?

Ye Bei nodded seriously after listening to what the system had to say.

It was true. Intelligence was the root of everything.

Why were humans powerful?

In this world, in terms of individual combat power, perhaps countless beasts were capable of easily slaughtering humans.

But in the end, why did humans still stand on top?

The reason was fairly simple, and that was, with their intelligence, they had made countless powerful weapons!

If humans acquired such a potion, and their overall intelligence was once again enhanced… just the thought alone was terrifying. If this actually happened, it wouldn’t take long for humans to break free from the shackles of earth, go straight into the universe, and become a star-system class civilization, or even a galaxy-class civilization.

“I got it! System, show me my information panel. I want to look at my latest data. And also, open the last three Silver Treasure Chests!”

Ye Bei took a few deep breaths in an attempt to maintain his composure.

But he couldn’t stop thinking about how to use the potion next.

100,000 creatures!

Having too much was also troublesome!

As Ye Bei thought about all this, the Silver Treasure Chests opened, and silvery-white light instantly enveloped him.

Mm…

Was there something good again?

Ye Bei ignored the agitation in his heart and looked over excitedly.
