Beast Tamer: Carrying a small world of the end times with you

The crystal nucleus entered and was immediately enveloped by the blood energy within the Abomination Giant's body, continuously digesting the energy within the crystal nucleus.

An indescribable, fulfilling energy filled the Abomination Giant's body, causing a look of excitement to appear on its face.

In the next moment, it opened its large mouth and, taking advantage of the remaining energy, swallowed the entire massive corpse of the Zombie Beast whole.

Returning it to its original source.

After a while, it opened its mouth again and spat out the thoroughly digested skeleton.

"How was that? A big improvement?"

Seeing that there was no obvious improvement in the Abomination Giant's attribute panel, Qian Er understood that the Abomination Giant had not yet digested the Zombie Beast's body, so he asked.

"Roar! (Huge. Judging by the flesh quality alone, that guy's flesh is even a bit better than mine, but it was surprisingly weak.)"

The Abomination Giant let out a series of confused roars, unable to understand what was happening.

It didn't understand, but Qian Er did. The Abomination Giants were an ancient beast-controlling race that had been around for many years. Powerful traits were passed down through the bloodline. Moreover, countless talented beast-controlling masters had developed new skills to fill in the gaps for the Abomination Giant. How could five years of development possibly compare to thousands of years?

Admittedly, the Zombie Beast could enhance its basic attributes through its unique advantages and reach the same level as the Abomination Giant, but its other soft attributes were far behind.

"Can you still hold on?"

Patting the Abomination Giant's stomach, Qian Er asked with a frown.

Just like during the Sludge Monster phase, the more the Abomination Giant accumulated, the greater the improvement when it evolved into the Flesh Demon.

The Abomination Giant, sitting cross-legged on the ground like Qian Er, casually grabbed two small snacks and threw them into its mouth. Feeling the taste of the inferior, rotten flesh and the tiny amount of power within the brain stones, it frowned, but quickly recovered, telling itself that it was better than nothing.

"Roar! (I can still handle it.)"

After careful consideration, it nodded vigorously.

"Good. Just like in the Sludge Monster phase, evolve when you really can't hold on anymore."

Qian Er said with relief, constantly monitoring the Abomination Giant's attribute panel.

At this time, the Abomination Giant had already begun to gradually assimilate the flesh and brain stones of the Zombie Beast it had just consumed. Its level and size were increasing rapidly. While they were chatting, its level had already soared to 35.

A normal Abomination Giant would evolve into a Flesh Demon at level 36. That is to say, his Abomination Giant was only one step away from evolving.

But at this time, he had to hold back. Although his Abomination Giant had already broken through the upper limit of the Abomination Giant race recorded in history, Qian Er felt that this should not be the limit of his Abomination Giant.

"Come on, I'll take you to find the Evolved Corpse Kings again."

After waiting for a while, until the Abomination Giant stood up and said that it had completely digested the Zombie Beast, Qian Er spoke.

However, the Abomination Giant did not level up again at this time, remaining at level 35, which was a bit of a pity.

But it wasn't a big problem. He knew the forbidden areas in this city like the back of his hand. He could just go to each one and pick off those Evolved Corpse Kings one by one, and it would eventually level up.

...

"That should be the Evolved Corpse King here. I can feel that the aroma emanating from its body is even stronger."

Casually throwing a small snack that had heard the movement and come over to gnaw on its toes into its mouth and chewing loudly, the Abomination Giant pointed to a massive group of zombies in front of it.

"So many?"

Looking at the zombies in front of him, occupying an entire street and stretching as far as the eye could see, Qian Er felt a chill run down his spine.

"Can you specifically sense the location of that Evolved Corpse King?"

Qian Er couldn't help but ask. These zombies were even more numerous than the zombie horde he had attracted in the square before.

With a zombie horde of this magnitude, if even one or two managed to pounce on the Abomination Giant, it would be a big problem.

Hearing this, the Abomination Giant slowly closed its eyes. After a moment, it suddenly opened its eyes, its eyes filled with surprise.

"Roar!"

In the next moment, the Abomination Giant slammed its legs against the ground, its massive body rushing into the zombie horde like a tiger descending the mountain, bringing with it a shrill wind. Qian Er hadn't even reacted.

When he opened his eyes again, he found a sturdy zombie more than two meters tall, with muscles as smooth as a cheetah's, holding a brain stone and about to throw it into its mouth.

But this action quickly disappeared, because the Abomination Giant raised its huge palm and slammed down hard, directly smashing the zombie into the dirt.

This one blow directly stunned the Evolved Corpse King. The ordinary zombies surrounding it rushed up as if they were crazy, but they were swallowed into the Abomination Giant's blood basin mouth and chewed with its huge tongue.

After tasting an appetizer, the Abomination Giant pinched the Evolved Corpse King's head with two thick fingers and threw it into its mouth. The taste of the high-quality flesh filled its face with intoxication.

"Wait, control two ordinary zombies and bring them over here first."

Seeing that the Abomination Giant had finished the main course and was about to start on the after-dinner snacks, Qian Er quickly interrupted its actions.

Although the Abomination Giant didn't know what Qian Er was up to, it still reached out its large hand and grabbed two zombies from its body.

These fearless zombies were now climbing up the Abomination Giant's legs like ants, opening their mouths and tearing at the Abomination Giant's body, trying to eat it.

But how could their teeth break through the defenses of muscles that had been refined to a terrifying level? Biting the Abomination Giant was no better than being bitten by a mosquito.

Sliding down the Abomination Giant's arm into its palm, Qian Er skillfully killed one of the zombies with a knife, took out the brain stone from its head, and threw it into the mouth of the other zombie.

The scene of the Evolved Corpse King swallowing the brain stone was still vivid in his mind, which made an idea emerge in Qian Er's mind.

Could it be that zombies can also absorb brain stones to evolve? But ordinary zombies don't attack their own kind, so no one has ever discovered this before. But after evolving into a Corpse King, they have a certain amount of intelligence and can resist their body's instincts to attack their own kind?

If this conjecture comes true, then they'll be rich. They can raise their own Evolved Corpse Kings in the future.

In Qian Er's expectant eyes, the brain stone that had been swallowed began to digest. The aura on the zombie's body began to increase at a rate visible to the naked eye, but it had not yet reached the point of evolution, presumably because it had not been fed enough.

"Haha, it's actually true!"

Qian Er excitedly patted the Abomination Giant's arm, not expecting that he had actually discovered this evolutionary condition. Has everything been going too smoothly lately?
