Night.

Nine o'clock.

The temperature dropped again, and Hanhan fell into a deep sleep.

Li Tianran sat on the ridge of the planting area, looking at the nineteen LV4 crop seeds in his hand.

Its effect was indeed abnormal, enhancing the beneficial developmental elements in gene fission. Simply put, long-term consumption of LV4 crops would greatly increase the chances of physical evolution.

Evolution.

These two words represented more than just "higher individuals" and "stronger power."

Any organism on Blue Star has its gene cells constantly replicating and undergoing fission. Old cells die, and new cells replace the old ones to continue maintaining life.

During this fission and replication process, cells are mostly stable and will completely replicate any elements of the old cells.

Although genes are very stable and can accurately replicate themselves during cell division, this stability is relative.

Under certain conditions, genes can suddenly change from their original form to another new form. That is, a new gene suddenly appears at a locus, replacing the original gene. This gene is called a mutant gene, and the offspring will suddenly exhibit new traits that the ancestors never had!

Gene mutations have two outcomes.

One is adverse development, like newborn babies born with "two heads" or a "fifth limb." Such babies usually don't live long and will die prematurely.

Like the many mutated beasts that have appeared in the world, their limbs are terrifying, they possess immense strength, but their life genes have fatal flaws!

The second is beneficial development. Some babies are born with higher bone density than ordinary people, or their brains have larger capacity and faster thinking than ordinary people!

People can often find that in some areas, two people put in the same effort, but eventually one person will leave the opponent far behind.

This is due to genes. Beneficial development allows a person to be in a naturally invincible position in certain areas.

This is what we often call talent!

Of course, this is only the most basic beneficial gene mutation.

Usually, beneficial gene mutations are only limited to a very small range, and the talent they exhibit is only two or three times higher than that of ordinary people, which is far from reaching the level of "evolution."

"Evolution" represents a change in two levels of life.

Like the fish of the past, some of their groups evolved over long periods of time into amphibians that could travel in both water and land. From the level of life, amphibians are superior to simple fish.

In other words, simply enhancing existing physical qualities, making muscles stronger, and making the sense of smell more acute is not called evolution, it's called development!

Adding new and beneficial functions to the body on top of its original functions can be called evolution!

For example, giving humans wings, allowing them to soar through the sky without any external force.

For example, having the skills of a gecko, allowing severed limbs to regenerate.

Or having the characteristics of a chameleon, allowing them to hide themselves anytime, anywhere…

Or even more advanced things, such as abilities that only exist in science fiction novels, like X-ray vision and mental powers!

Only this kind of ability is worthy of the word "evolution"!

Like some of the "perfectly mutated" beasts that have appeared in the world, they are actually the first batch of evolved beings in the world.

They possess intelligence beyond ordinary people, have strong physiques, and are constantly improving.

Apart from them and Little Black, even Li Tianran, who has been eating radiation-resistant food, doesn't count!

And Hanhan…

Li Tianran fell silent.

The supernatural powers that Hanhan exhibited were very much in line with the characteristics of evolution, but there was no mention of "evolution" in her data description.

Regarding this, he didn't know what was going on.

He couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up and began to rethink the current situation.

What Li Tianran didn't know was that the V-shaped virus that caused crop failure and biological mutation was actually completely identical to the basic attributes of LV4 crops!

They both promote gene fission in organisms, increasing the possibility of gene mutation.

The only difference is that the V-shaped virus has an extremely violent effect. While promoting gene fission, it also drastically enhances the adverse developmental elements of gene fission, which is why it causes biological limb mutations and life collapse!

There are no more than ten creatures in the entire world that have survived the V-shaped virus and completed evolution!

The probability of success is almost one in a billion!

The additional effect of LV4 crops is completely opposite to that of the V-shaped virus. Its effect is gentle and eliminates the possibility of adverse gene fission.

As long as it is taken for a long time, the body will definitely evolve, rather than mutate adversely!

Of course, it's not to say that the body will immediately evolve as long as LV4 crops are consumed. Beneficial gene fission and evolution also require a certain probability. LV4 crops only greatly increase this probability, not 100%!

Little Black's case can only be said to be due to its good luck.

It only consumed half a seed, and its body evolved.

However, "reversion" is not a very good direction for evolution. According to Li Tianran's observation, after Little Black evolved, it basically had no other abilities except for possibly awakening a "hunting instinct" skill from its wolf ancestors.

Little Black has become more ferocious,敏锐 (minrui - acute), and cunning, all of which are not possessed by canines, but are skills from wolves.

In fact, Little Black should now be considered a big grey wolf!

But what Li Tianran wanted was not just a wolf. He wanted Little Black to have stronger evolutionary functions, like the "Azure Dragon" currently roaming on the Yanhuang border. It was originally an orca, but now it has grown limbs and lungs, freely traversing the land and sea!

He saw all of this in Yuan Zhenghong's information, and it was absolutely confidential.

"This is the key to opening a new era for mankind…" Li Tianran looked at the dark seeds in his hand and made an accurate assessment.

If this level of plants could be planted on a large scale and consumed by people for a long time, then the human race would truly enter a new era.

Just like what Bai Jingyan once recorded in his USB drive, humans will become gods.

"If humans will become gods in the future through this kind of thing, then I…will become the God who controls the gods." Li Tianran clenched his fist tightly, a hint of ruthlessness appearing between his brows.

LV4 crops are too precious and too abnormal.

This power must be firmly in his own hands!

"Its planting conditions are very harsh… To plant it, I need to first use a lot of points to upgrade the land level." Li Tianran looked at the "High-Quality Land Upgrade Scroll" in the mall, which cost 5,000 points per square meter. He gritted his teeth and chose to buy it.

"You have spent 95,000 points to purchase High-Quality Land Upgrade Scroll x19!"

"Remaining points: 5,680,000!"

Seeing a small portion of his hard-earned points disappear in an instant, Li Tianran felt a pang of heartache, but there's no gain without pain.

He chose to upgrade. With the land under his feet as the center, the land within nineteen square meters nearby instantly emitted a burst of light, and then changed from earthy yellow to fertile black!

“High-Quality Land

Description: Nutrient-rich black soil that can grow crops above LV4 and has the effect of increasing the yield of crops below LV3!”

Li Tianran very carefully planted the seeds in his hand on this black soil according to the proportion.

Then, he began to irrigate with crop growth agent.

The growth agent is extremely effective for LV4 crops, and can only provide twice the acceleration. Li Tianran calculated the time, and the time when these crops mature is exactly the day when the second Destruction Era arrives!

…

At four o'clock in the morning, Bai Jingyan, with bloodshot eyes, didn't know that the "perfect mutation" opportunity he had been pursuing was quietly sprouting less than five kilometers away from him.

He didn't have Li Tianran's good luck.

So, he could only rely on his own constant exploration.

Just like he once wrote in his USB drive.

Ahead of him is darkness, and behind him is an abyss.

He has nowhere to retreat!

"Researcher Bai, the comparison results are out!"

At this moment, a voice filled with surprise suddenly sounded in the silent research institute.
