Heavy Armoured Truck In Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 31: Product of failure

Does a cat have thorns? It's hard to say. Shen Cong has never seen one.

So will cats have bone spurs, bone spurs that are longer than a cat's tail? Obviously, it's impossible. This is a mutated cat.

There are more than ten bone spurs growing on the mutated cat's body. The positions are very strange and not symmetrical. They are located on the shoulder blades, at the base of the back, on the buttocks, on the top of the head, on the abdomen, and on the back. There is even a bone spur growing on the tail.

A mutated cat the size of a small tiger, covered in dozens of bone spurs, looks ferocious and terrifying, but the awkward thing is that these bone spurs not only make it look ferocious, but also hinder its movement. The bone spur in the abdomen touches the ground from time to time, and the bone spur at the base of the thigh makes it limp.

The bone spurs in the shoulder blades kept his neck tilted.

Seeing such a mutation, Shen Cong immediately thought of a word - deformity.

The mutated cat limped towards the poisonous peach tree from the top of the short mountain. The bone spurs hampered its speed. It even stumbled over a sharp rock when it was crossed by the bone spurs on its abdomen.

Shen Cong was worried whether he would break the bone spur or pierce himself.

A few minutes later, the mutant cat finally arrived under the poison peach tree and climbed towards the trunk. It's a pity that its ability to climb trees was completely disabled due to the growth of bone spurs, and its four claws were unable to grasp the tree trunk. Last time, I fell down and the area where the bone spurs grew quickly started to bleed.

The bright red blood quickly dyed the mutated cat from yellow-gray to red.

The mutated cat seemed to feel no pain, and still tried to climb the tree unyieldingly. He fell down, was bleeding, got up, and fell again and was bleeding.

Seeing that the mutant cat's physical strength was getting weaker and weaker, Shen Cong put down the telescope, replaced the Optimus Prime 1.0 active armor, and walked out of the King Kong. Turning his head three times in one step, he quickly advanced to the peach tree. All the mutant cat's attention was attracted by the peach tree, and he didn't care about Shen Cong's arrival at all.

I don't know if he was obsessed with the active poisonous peach, or if he was too weak to measure the danger.

Upon seeing this, Shen Cong directly wrapped the mutant cat's neck with an iron chain, and then used a fang javelin to lift the iron chain, instantly suspending the mutant cat in the air, just like lifting a pole.

"Whoa!"

The mutated cat made an angry cry, the sound was rather weird, and it sounded like it was holding phlegm in its mouth.

Shen Cong ignored the mutant cat's struggle and directly carried the mutant cat back to the King Kong. Then, he tied the mutant cat into a rice dumpling with chains and threw it on the deck of the carriage.

He wanted to study this mutant cat, and it was rare to catch a living creature again.

"The signs of the mutation are mainly concentrated in the increase in body size and fifteen bone spurs..." Shen Cong casually used a fang dagger to chop off the bone spurs on the mutant cat's abdomen.

"Wow!" the mutated cat roared.

Shen Cong held the bone spur in his hand and sensed it for a moment: "Strange, this bone spur is not an active core. The active radiation on it is too weak, but it can inject activity very well!"

Thinking about it, he chopped off the bone spurs at the base of the mutant cat's hind legs. These two bone spurs were both bone spurs that hindered the mutant cat's movement.

On this bone spur, Shen Cong also felt that there was only weak active radiation, not an active core, but the conduction of activity was very good.

Injecting activity, Shen Cong swung his bone spurs and stabbed at a scrap of steel plate.

Snap.

The bone spur broke into two pieces, leaving only a slight white mark on the steel plate.

Frowning, Shen Cong felt dissatisfied: "It's not an active core. The activity can't sharpen and harden the bone spurs... It conducts well, but it can't sharpen and harden. This bone spur is really weird."

Except for bone spurs, mutant cats do not have gigantic bones. Generally, the active cores are gigantic bones. This is common sense that Shen Cong discovered during this period.

"So, which one is the active core?"

Shen Cong didn't bother to guess, so he chopped off all the remaining thirteen bone spurs on the mutated cat one by one, and sensed them one by one.

The result is that none of them have active cores. The mutated cat seems to be another plastic rabbit with no active core.

The mutated cat with its bone spurs chopped off was dying due to excessive bleeding.

Shen Cong fed him a piece of tumor pork steak, and the mutated cat immediately began to improve. It became energetic and struggled again, and its screams were miserable.

Shen Cong turned a deaf ear and calmly typed on his laptop.

"The ferocious cat is a deformed and mutated feline. It is most likely a mutation of a domestic cat. It has fifteen bone spurs in different parts of its body. It has no active core. The bone spurs can inject activity but do not have the function of an active core and cause inability to move. Convenience, almost no combat effectiveness.”

After typing this paragraph, Shen Cong added another paragraph: "It is inferred that some unknown errors occurred during the mutation process of the ferocious cat, resulting in strange and uncoordinated mutation signs... The tumors of the tumor pigs also seem to be uncoordinated mutation signs in the mutation. Presumably, changes in activity to organisms can also lead to erroneous evolution."

Obviously, ferocious cats are failed mutant animals.

Although Shen Cong didn't think that the giant active cores of mutated animals such as tooth wolves, digging insects, and short-term ant colonies were too much of a deterrent, at least they did not hinder their combat effectiveness.

Once you master the use of activity, the active core will also work wonders.

This is smooth evolution.

The bone spurs of ferocious cats and the tumors of tumorous pigs are failures of evolution.

"In summary, activity is more like an inducement of evolution. When genes are induced, there are mutations that are detrimental to survival and mutations that are beneficial to survival... Fortunately, my mutation has no negative side so far."

Shen Cong looked at the ferocious cat with blood scabs on his body, his eyes flickering: "There is no active core. I wonder if the ferocious cat is similar to a plastic rabbit, with a living metal vehicle... It is unlikely. The plastic rabbit is similar to me. , my evolution relies more on the exchange of King Kong, and there are no particularly special physical changes."

It's just that the plastic rabbit and Shen Cong are the same kind, but now such an ugly and ferocious cat is also the same kind, and Shen Cong feels absolutely uncomfortable.

And even if it were, it would be difficult for Shen Cong to find the ferocious cat's metal vehicle. The ferocious cat had been attracted by the active poisonous peach and would not even consider returning to the vehicle.

Shen Cong didn't have the energy to search in a large area.

In this way, the useful value of the ferocious cat is greatly reduced. And he was so ugly that he didn’t even think of raising it. As expected, the ferocious cat ended up being slaughtered for cooking.

Snap, snap!

At this moment, a slight crash suddenly came from the rear of the carriage.

Shen Cong became vigilant, quickly grabbed the fang dagger and went to the compartment at the rear of the carriage. This compartment was where he fed blowflies and hatched ant eggs.

Snap, snap!

Following the direction of the sound, Shen Cong saw the object that made the sound, which was the glass bottle used to experiment with active poison peaches.

Originally, the blowfly inside had been poisoned to death, but at this moment, a blowfly one size larger was running rampant in the glass bottle.

The glass fret is sealed and it cannot get out.

A small piece of poisonous peach pulp has disappeared, leaving only a black puddle of fly droppings at the bottom of the bottle.

The blowfly is not dead!

Come to life and mutate!

Shen Cong raised his eyebrows. His research finally yielded some results.
