Chapter 1984 Xenogeneic Geno Ar (1/2)
t
Old Night Island was very big. There were mountains, forests, and even oceans. Han Sen went there and chased a flying bird. He caught up with it and cut its head off.
”Xenogeneic Earl hunted. Forest Bird: xenogeneic gene found.”
Han Sen collected the xenogeneic gene from the corpse, then started a fire. He immediately got to eating.
The legless crane flapped its wings, having brought over a few branches. Bubble was hopping all over Han Sen. It was weak, so it couldn't help much.
”With this Forest Bird, that marks the eighth Earl in four days. This is no faster than going into the Xuanyuan Cave.” Han Sen felt terrible.
Old Night Island was not as good as Han Sen thought it would be, and the xenogeneics he managed to find were fast. The place was so large that it took a long time just to find a single Earl. Han Sen felt as if his plan had completely failed.
Han Sen gave the bird's body to the legless crane, and he cooked the xenogeneic gene. It was a liver this time. It tasted lovely, and it had a pleasant aroma, too.
”Earl Gene +1”
After eating the whole liver, Han Sen's Earl gene tally reached twenty-five.
Han Sen brought out the ant queen's mutant gene. He was used to hearing the announcement saying he did not have enough genes yet.
But this time, Han Sen did not hear that wretched announcement.
”Do I have enough Earl genes now?” Han Sen grinned widely. He quickly started trying to cook the ant queen's gene in the pot.
Han Sen hadn't been able to cook the ant queen's meat before, but now it was boiling. It made Han Sen very happy. After a while, the ant queen's meat was cooked. Han Sen ate it, and he felt a power course through him.
After Han Sen ate all the meat, he did not hear any of his genes increase. He looked at his stats, and it still said he had twenty-five Earl genes in total. Eating the ant queen did not seem to have increased anything.
But the power of the ant queen's meat was now inside Han Sen. It wasn't refined, and it was coursing through Han Sen's vessels. The power kept traveling through him, until eventually it waned and disappeared.
In Han Sen's head, a shocking announcement played.
”Earl class xenogeneic geno art obtained: Ant Queen Mark”
”Mutant genes don't actually increase genes? They give geno arts instead?” Han Sen thought to himself. And then, he followed the path the powers had taken through his body. It was then that he discovered a gold symbol on his body.
Han Sen had seen this gold shape on the ant queen's body. When this spell began to glow, the creature's power increased. Han Sen tested it out. Lo and behold, the ant queen's mark was very effective. It made Earls as strong as Marquises.
That meant the ant queen's geno art did not need to be practiced, and despite that, Han Sen could be as strong as the creature had been.
