Renault glanced at the stumps. The silk thread immediately lifted them and moved them. Like a jigsaw puzzle, he quickly put them together as a whole.


    This sea monster is almost an enlarged version of the three clawed monster. The shape, color and scales on its body surface are the same, only a little different. It has five tentacles in the center, not the trident of the three clawed monster.


    Obviously, it''s a five clawed monster.


    No, maybe it should be called "four and a half" claw monster.


    Because the length of one of the tentacles is almost half shorter than that of the other four, it seems that this is a tentacle that has not yet fully grown.


    Fortunately, among the ghost claws in this sea area, the number of five claws is the least. I didn''t expect that the first ghost claw was five claws.


    After looking at the five clawed monster, Renault felt a little confused. From the appearance characteristics, the five clawed monster and the three clawed monster should belong to the same species, but why are their tentacles different?


    This obviously doesn''t make sense.


    It''s also worth noting that the more tentacles there are, the stronger their strength will be, which gives Renault a sense of visual play.


    The three clawed monster is just an ordinary sea monster. When it has one more tentacle, it will become a rare sea monster with four tentacles. When the number of tentacles becomes five, it will be upgraded to an elite sea monster.


    But the problem is, it''s not a game. What''s the bullshit saying that "promotion to a higher level is a tentacle"?


    This is obviously a fantasy world. Why does this strange thing happen?


    He only thought of one explanation - it was a mutation caused by magic power.


    In other words, directed mutation.


    According to Renault, most of the gene fragments in the gene sequence of the ghost claw monster are in a sleeping state, belonging to "redundant" genes, which can also be called "recessive gene fragments".


    The "dominant gene" is the corresponding "expressed gene".


    But in this world, recessive genes will not sleep forever. When the level of magic power reaches a certain level, a small part of them will be activated and transformed into dominant genes.


    The genetic change is reflected in the body, and the ghost claw monster will grow a new tentacle like a budding tree, so the three claw monster "upgrades" to the four claw monster, and the four claw monster becomes the five claw monster.


    It''s the same with this five clawed monster, which was unloaded by Renault for 18 yuan, but its tentacles haven''t been completely long enough to die.


    To some extent, tripods and pentapods can be considered as the same race, because their genes are exactly the same, but they can also be considered as different races, because they express different gene fragments.


    What''s more, this kind of mutation is very consistent. It''s all long tentacles, and there won''t be messy mutations. In short, it''s an extremely stable "directional" mutation.


    Even in the alien world where there are so many mutated creatures like dogs, the ghost claw monster can be regarded as a result of blowing.


    This theory is also applicable to the evolution of alien human beings. For example, ordinary people become awakened, and awakened people are promoted to extraordinary people, which is also inseparable from this pattern.


    The former is a kind of "directional" variation, and the awakened people in the whole human world are almost the same, while the latter is a "random" variation. The extraordinary power mastered by the extraordinary people has different attributes and no longer tends to be consistent.


    All this is due to the magic power, which moves the string named "mutation" in the gene fragment.


    On the coast of three claw Island, the island guards have just shot and killed a three claw monster. They are busy decomposing the corpse. The peeled skin is piled aside, and the meat of the sea monster is cut into pieces and stacked in a wooden box with ice.


    At this time, in the dim night sky in the distance, a shadow suddenly flashed up. In the blink of an eye, it grew up and flew over the crowd.


    Some of the team members with bright eyes and ears raised their heads immediately when they heard the wind. However, most of them only caught a huge white shadow falling from the sky, and only a few of them vaguely noticed a dark shadow that was going away at a very fast speed.


    "Bang..."


    The white shadow hit the ground heavily, making an extremely heavy dull sound. A stream of dust immediately rose on the ground, and all the people were scared and began to dodge.


    Then the white shadow rolled a few times, its volume was huge, its weight was amazing, and even the ground shook slightly.


    After the dust was blown away by the night wind, the team members found that it was a huge piece of ice, more than 20 meters long. It was shining in the light of the campfire, just like a crystal mountain.


    "Look, there''s something in the iceberg..." Exclaimed one of the players.


    Other people smell speech one after another around, curiously looking at the iceberg.


    There are many tentacles covered with scales in the ice. The three clawed monster that everyone killed for several hours can be recognized with eyes closed. This is the tentacle of the ghost claw monster.


    In terms of body size, this ghost claw monster is much bigger than the three claw monster, and it seems to have more tentacles. There is no doubt that it is stronger than the three claw monster.


    Seeing this behind the scenes, they didn''t understand that it must be the prey killed by the Lord. Unexpectedly, the LORD went out for a few minutes and killed a more powerful ghost claw monster.Seeing that his subordinates were talking around the iceberg, even the task of hunting sea monsters was forgotten, mousse''s face turned black, and he cried out:


    "during the task, no unauthorized action is allowed, everyone can return to their own position quickly..."


    The team members immediately scattered and ran to their respective positions. The team leaders yelled at the team members and urged them to move faster.


    As we all know, in the course of carrying out the mission, Mr. Muse is just like a changed person. He is so severe that people are afraid. He is no longer the usual amiable and extraordinary one. If he does not obey the command, he will never have good fruit.


    If the mistake is made by an ordinary team member, not only the team member himself will be punished by the military law, but also the team leader directly under him will be punished with the same misfortune, for failing to discipline.


    If it is the team leader who makes mistakes, the consequences will be more serious and the punishment will be more severe. Maybe even the team leader''s position will be removed directly. As a team leader, you can''t set an example. Who can''t you?


    Seeing that the formation was completely restored, Mu Si''s face was slightly pale, and he quickly gave a series of orders:


    "Stanfield, you take people to deal with the Lord''s prey first..."


    "Longstreet, you go to negotiate with the civilians over there, and temporarily hire 20 civilians to help dig the ice. This iceberg is too big, we need more manpower..."


    After Renault killed two more four clawed monsters, the "fishing operation" was hastily ended.


    It''s not that he doesn''t want to continue to brush experience, but the efficiency of hunting is too low, which is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.


    In the dark sea, no one knows where there is a ghost claw monster. He can only wander around, and everything depends on his luck. Before killing the second four claw monster, he took a half hour''s wind in the sea and hit the four claw monster.


    Renault couldn''t help sighing that if only he could make a fishing artifact like "fish detector", then he would be able to drive a warship and take a group of people all over the world to hunt large sea monsters.


    Unfortunately, there is no such thing as "electricity" in the alien world. There is no way to make an "ultrasonic generator", let alone a fish detector.


    The only hope is to use magic power to make sound waves and develop magic power version of fish detector.


    But the problem is that he has already asked Seth of the Institute of rune, the rune magician of the whole foreign world, but he can''t find the Rune of sound wave. In the subject of rune, the application of acoustics is completely blank.


    That is to say, in a short period of time, there is no chance for the acoustic related technology tree to light up, and there is no hope in five or 10 years.


    Think of here, Renault shook his head, holding the ice covered with four clawed monster across the night sky at high speed.


    Forget it, I''d better go back for a night snack


    Ghost claw monster''s meat is soft, tender and smooth. With the experience of his divine chef, it is a kind of meat that is extremely suitable for making iron plate meat.


    Cut it into thin pieces of meat, and roast it on an iron plate above 500 degrees for a while. You don''t need to add any seasoning, just sprinkle a little sea salt. The taste is so good that you can''t wait to swallow your tongue.


    Ah, just thinking about it in my head, my saliva can''t stop flowing


    Well, another meat soup, with soup and meat, is the perfect snack
