66 Level 2 Mutant Seed (1/2)

When the destructive commotion finally ended, Long Yu stood up with difficulty.

*Pui*

He spat out the dust that somehow got into his mouth.

He also had to spend some time swatting at his clothes to remove the thick dust covering him.

Once he was done, Long Yu got out of his cover and eagerly examined the results of the battle.

Seeing that there was no more looming figure which stood a hundred metres tall, he sighed in relief.

'Ouch!' Long Yu winced when he felt a sharp pain coming from his body.

He then closed his eyes and communicated with the system.

'Well, that doesn't look too bad.' Long Yu thought to himself.

Compared to his armor covered limbs, his torso was obviously a lot more susceptible to injury during the battle.

Thanks to the ability of the nano-machine exoskeleton armor to absorb impact, he managed to come out relatively unscathed.

With a single thought, Long Yu willed the armor on his arms to disappear. In an instant, the armor dispersed into specks of silver nano-machines, which then receded back into his bones.

”Huuu…” he took a deep breath before using his right hand to skilfully relocate his dislocated left shoulder.

Doing so caused him to feel a brief agonising pain, but at least he could now move his left arm.

He was not worried about the other minor injuries in his body as they would quickly heal by themselves. This was thanks to the inhuman recovery ability he acquired when he got infected by the zombie previously.

Long Yu then re-equiped the nano-machine exoskeleton armor on his arms before heading towards the location of the vampire plant.

What awaited his sight, was the lower trunk of the plant still rooted to the ground, showing no movement whatsoever.

On the other hand, the upper body of the plant was now shrivelled up like a dead tree. Although its size was still gigantic, it was now only one third of its original size.

As for its appearance, the trunk's original red mahogany shade had withered into an ash white colour. Moreover, the blood red veins had turned dark with no signs of life either, which Long Yu couldn't be more happy about.

He was afraid that the vampire plant could regenerate even when separated from its power source. If that happened, it would have been troublesome for sure.

When Long arrived at the lower trunk, he could see the smoothly cut surface caused by the Space Splitter Mines. He could even clearly see the number of rings on the tree, which indicated its age.

True to its description, the set of mines managed to sever the vampire plant entirely. Even if it was made of metal, it would have been cut down all the same.

Regaining his senses, Long Yu hopped onto the trunk. His eyes shone with a blue glimmer as he activated the X-ray Contact Lenses that he prepared beforehand.

”It should be around here…. Found it!” Long Yu exclaimed with delight.

His heart fluttered with joy when he saw the mutant seed inside the trunk. It was safely nestled inside, just a few inches below his feet.

Idling no longer, Long Yu quickly got to work. He squatted down and pulled his arm backwards, with his fist aiming downwards.

*Bang*

With a devastating punch, he created a large crack on the surface of the trunk.
