Chapter 537: Doctor Genus gone mad? No problem!

[System Notification: A new module feature detected, research needed to obtain download permission.]

Upon hearing the notification sound in his mind, Fang Mo was slightly taken aback.

He indeed knew that the House of Evolution was extremely wealthy, but he hadn't anticipated it to be so preposterous that even the Carnage Kabuto harbored a module within.

It is known that among all known module unlocking categories, the probability of unlocking via touching a creature is the lowest.

To date, Fang Mo had unlocked nearly seventy modules, yet only a few were unlocked through biological means, like the Mutant Creatures, the Gaia Grimoire, and the Cannibalism module.

However, what kind of module could this Carnage Kabuto unlock...

To be honest, Fang Mo couldn't even imagine.

But the more he couldn't figure it out, the more he looked forward to it. After all, as a player who thrives in chaos, how could he resist the fun of opening a blind box?

"Interesting," he thought, and couldn't help but laugh.

Then he looked up into the sky, where the Carnage Kabuto, using the force of its descent, was plummeting towards him like a cannonball, a vicious smile on its face.

"Ha, despair now, you're about to be smashed into a puddle of mud!" And as the Carnage Kabuto got closer to Fang Mo, it seemed unable to restrain its bloodthirsty impulse and roared excitedly, "Fodder, struggle with all your might!"

"Struggle with all my might? Me?"

Hearing the roar of the Carnage Kabuto, Fang Mo laughed.

If he were to struggle with all his might, it wouldn't just be a matter of whether or not a star explodes, but whether the Hot Spring Sword, the Azathoth Statue, or Hungry Dimension Expansion could destroy the universe.

And if it came to playing with the universe until it collapses...

Fang Mo guessed he'd laugh and say, "Yo, this little black hole is really tight."

"Speaking of which, you calling everyone 'fodder' rolls off your tongue quite nicely." Looking up at the Carnage Kabuto, Fang Mo's gaze began to sharpen, a profound aura flashing through his eyes: "The only one who can call others 'fodder'... is me!"

With that said, Fang Mo clenched his fist and prepared to strike upwards.

But just at that moment, the Carnage Kabuto, as if sensing something, suddenly shrank its pupils to the size of pinpoints and frantically tried to dodge.

However, it was currently in midair.

It couldn't exactly jump back to escape.

But the Carnage Kabuto truly panicked this time, because the moment Fang Mo threw his punch, it immediately felt an unprecedented sense of crisis, as if someone would never dare to put their hand into a meat grinder.

It wouldn't dare to throw even a single punch toward Fang Mo.

As if by instinct, the Carnage Kabuto exploded with an unprecedented will to survive, struggling frantically in mid-air.

Fortunately, its diving speed was fast enough, and the air resistance high enough, that it suddenly changed its position, causing intense friction between the air and its shell, which barely allowed it to brush past Fang Mo and crash heavily into the ground.

But that wasn't the end of it.

The huge inertia carried it forward in that position, plowing a massive trench through the earth with its upper body.

But soon, the earth couldn't completely absorb this massive kinetic energy, and the Carnage Kabuto's body flipped out again, its large frame rolling rapidly forward like a ball before crashing heavily into a mountain wall, making a deafening sound.

"Well, you rolled quite a distance there."

Seeing this, Fang Mo also smiled: "Why do you have to be a rhinoceros beetle? If you were a watermelon worm, maybe you could've cosplayed as a basketball and saved your life..."

But as Fang Mo was speaking.

Suddenly, a scream came from the sky, growing louder as it approached.

"Hmm?"

Fang Mo looked up and saw a dark shadow fall from the sky, splatting into a nearby pit.

This person was none other than the leader of the House of Evolution, Doctor.

Just moments ago in the sky, in order to withstand an ancient spell released by Ancient One, the Carnage Kabuto casually threw Doctor Genus aside.

Yes, you heard right, it casually threw its master away like trash, completely unconcerned about whether Doctor Genus would be smashed to death or not. In fact, it was precisely because of this that Doctor Genus had always considered the Carnage Kabuto a failure, and would not use its power unless absolutely necessary.

Luckily, Doctor Genus's luck wasn't too bad.

Just now, the Carnage Kabuto had created a huge pit in the ground, and he fell onto the soft mud, heavily injured but at least his life was spared.

"What... what's going on..."

However, even after falling into the pit, Doctor Genus didn't care about his own condition and instead struggled to get up from the ground, looking bewilderedly at the collapsed mountain wall: "The Carnage Kabuto just now... was it afraid? Why?"

"Oh?"

Seeing Doctor Genus's puzzled face, Fang Mo also smiled and asked him: "Are you curious?"

"You... who are you?"

Doctor Genus looked at Fang Mo somewhat strangely.

He had previously checked the surveillance when, due to the fierce fight between the mosquito swarm and Genos, many surveillance cameras were burned out, so he hadn't seen Fang Mo's action.

"I'm just a friend who shares your ideals."

Fang Mo said with a smile.

"Ideal-sharing?" Doctor Genus heard this and instinctively furrowed his brow: "Do you also think that humans should evolve?"

"Ah, yes, yes, I particularly admire you as a pioneer of the new era."

Fang Mo still maintained a sincere smile, but his tone seemed to mix with some subtle malice: "Look, the human body is so fragile, that's the lowest form of carbon-based structure, I understand, Doctor, our true power comes from... genes, right?"

Probably because he had been around Nyarlathotep for a long time.

Or perhaps it was the oppressive force of his godly stature over mortals.

At this moment, Fang Mo's mere words carried a kind of indescribable magic, like a bizarrely enchanting sound, irresistibly convincing at heart.

"Really?"

However, Doctor Genus didn't doubt it and looked at Fang Mo in surprise after hearing his statement: "Is that really what you think?"

"Of course!"

Fang Mo declared emphatically: "I came here just to let you witness this... abandon this foul flesh, and join the glorious evolution!"

"Boom!!!"

As soon as Fang Mo finished speaking, the nearby mountain peak exploded again.

"Oh no..."

Seeing this, Doctor Genus immediately grew nervous: "The Carnage Kabuto is going mad, that's its Carnage Mode!"

"What does that mean?"

Just then, Saitama, who had also walked over, heard this and asked: "Is it something like a finishing move?"

"Once he enters this mode, he can no longer be stopped."

Doctor Genus said with cold sweat: "In this mode... the Carnage Kabuto's bodily data will significantly increase, but it will also lose consciousness due to the frenzy, only retaining its instinct to kill, and this will probably last for a week before it slowly recovers."

And just like confirming Doctor Genus's words.

From the smoke not far away, a huge and terrifying figure slowly emerged.

Yes, this was the Carnage Kabuto, but compared to before, its entire body had completely changed. It became more robust and large, its shell no longer hard but became more flexible, and even the veins and muscles underneath were visible.

At this moment, its entire shell had turned a purplish-green color, similar to the Berserk Unit-01, and the horn on its head became even more ferocious, indeed very impressive in terms of aura.

"I absolutely will not allow anyone to be stronger than me! Absolutely not!"

The Carnage Kabuto, now seeming a bit crazy, growled lowly and then charged directly towards Fang Mo: "Bald men and women, it doesn't matter, today I must torment you to death!"

As soon as the words fell, it vanished from its spot.

And the ground where it had just stood was instantly crushed into a huge pit.

"This is bad!"

Seeing this, Doctor Genus became even more anxious.

But what he didn't notice was that the several people standing beside him, whether it was Fang Mo, Ancient One, or Saitama, all appeared utterly calm at the moment.

"…Alright, I've decided!"

And as Fang Mo glanced at Doctor Genus, as if pondering something, he suddenly clapped his hands and made a decision: "Seeing how well we get along, I'll just let you witness the true meaning of evolution!"

"What?"

Doctor Genus subconsciously turned around: "…The true meaning of evolution?"

However, before he could grasp the meaning of these words.

Fang Mo had already made his preparations, seemingly pulling out a dream-like giant bow from nowhere.

Without any extra words, Fang Mo raised his hand and drew the bowstring, where light, fire, ice, thunder, darkness, gravity, time, and the artifacts within the storage space were activated one by one, drawing an endless stream of power, mobilizing it, and slowly pulling out a dazzling light on the bowstring.

"Ultra-high energy reaction?"

Genos, not far away, seemed to have sensed something and looked at the bowstring in Fang Mo's hand in astonishment: "Analyzing energy scale... what? Unmeasurable?"

"Hmm?"

Even Saitama, standing nearby, seemed somewhat surprised and looked at Fang Mo: "Hey, that thing in your hand should be pretty dangerous, right?"

"This moment, is when heaven falls."

However, Fang Mo simply ignored them, smiling as he let go of the bowstring.

Without any sound, the boundless brilliance turned into a torrent of light, pouring out from the bowstring.

The berserk Carnage Kabuto didn't even make contact with this light, merely approaching it momentarily before being evaporated completely, and after obliterating the opponent, this torrent of light continued straight forward, instantly tearing apart, evaporating, and turning the earth into a deep and crimson chasm.

As if it was a divine knife slicing across the earth, intending to cut the entire planet like a cake.

Regardless of whether mountains or lakes were in its path, nothing could stop this tidal wave of light; several mountain ranges turned to dust in an instant, and a distant lake evaporated completely in a moment.

Even though this torrent of light didn't actually make contact with it.

Merely passing over from above, that lake was instantly evaporated into a vast, dry basin.

Luckily, the Carnage Kabuto had charged down from halfway up the mountain.

The opponent came from top to bottom, so naturally, the arrow fired by Fang Mo also went from bottom to top.

This terrifying torrent of light destroyed countless terrains and landscapes along its path, and then it finally left the surface, slanting upward into the sky, tearing a dark hole in the atmosphere, and then disappearing into outer space.

Obviously, after taking this hit.

Even if the Carnage Kabuto was incredibly powerful, it was undoubtedly doomed.

Among those present, except for Ancient One and Saitama, who remained unphased, the rest, including Genos and Doctor Genus of the House of Evolution, were completely stunned.

Especially Doctor Genus.

His pupils shook violently, his whole body wide-mouthed but unable to breathe, like a fish out of water, his entire body unknowingly drenched in sweat, his complexion also terrifyingly pale.

"Phew, good, good."

And after shooting once, Fang Mo also breathed a sigh of relief.

He had indeed used a bit too much force just to tease Doctor Genus, but luckily he hadn't used the power of dimensions, otherwise that would have been another level of power altogether, any terrain even slightly touched by the aftermath... would probably be completely erased.

But if that were the case, the underground House of Evolution clearly wouldn't have lasted.

So Fang Mo had controlled his power, having finally found a place similar to Asgard, it would be really too bad if he blew it away.

And as Fang Mo was thinking about this.

Probably because the Carnage Kabuto had been killed.

A system notification sound also came.

[System Notification: "Rhinoceros Beetle," "Disaster," "Insect Monster," and other concepts have been researched, you have obtained a new module's download permission.]

[System Notification: The Erebus module begins downloading.]

[System Notification: The Erebus module download complete, load now?]

[System Notification: The Erebus module loading successful.]

[System Notification: Due to the download and operation of a new module, you have received a lucky block, which will randomly draw an item from any known module.]

"Hmm?"

And upon hearing this notification, Fang Mo was also stunned: "The Erebus?"

He had played this module a few times.

The Erebus, it sounds like a somewhat tough module, after all, it's chaos.

But actually, it's an insect-themed adventure module, adding a dimension somewhat like the Twilight Forest, only that it's full of bugs, and the models are particularly realistic, which might instantly kill players with insectophobia, but the grossest thing is a kind of booklice larva, able to eat boxes and bookshelves.

"Emmm..."

Fang Mo pondered the content of this module, lost in thought for a moment.

But just then, Genos suddenly seemed to have discovered something, first stunned, then his eyebrows furrowed deeply.

"Mr. Fang Mo, quick, look..."

Just as Genos pointed to the doctor on the ground, pulling Fang Mo back from his thoughts: "He seems to have gone mad."

"Hmm?"

Fang Mo looked down and indeed found that Doctor Genus had really gone mad, laughing stupidly while drooling, his head, face, and body all smeared with filthy mud, obviously not faked, but a true descent into madness, muttering something about "evolution, science, theology."

But seeing this, Fang Mo was not worried at all, instead revealing a smile as if everything had gone according to plan.

"Oh, great, he's finally gone mad."
