Chapter 162 The Animal Army Takes Shape

After getting Ye Feng's promise, Zhang Ji left quickly with 10 spiritual fruits.

The mutant biological crisis could break out at any time, so he had to report back quickly on this matter. After finalizing the plan, he would have further negotiations.

After watching the other party leave in a military jeep, Ye Feng also began to frown and ponder.

The biological crisis caused by the "four pests" in the city last time was really just a small matter compared to this time.

Although he believed that with the strength of the Dragon King Palace, it could play a decisive role in this crisis, it was hard to say whether Yangcheng could be saved.

"I hope the military can give more strength!" Ye Feng could only mutter in the end.

In the entire Yangcheng City, except for the old city where his parents lived, he must save it. In other places, he could only do his best.

"Just in case, I should continue to improve my strength."

Thinking of this, he clicked on the system panel and checked it.

Host: Ye Feng (World Tree)

Tree height: 2085 meters

Tree trunk width: 104 meters

Root length: 12400 meters

Realm: Late fifth stage

Evolution points: 1900/2000 points

Special abilities: Devouring, Captive, Evolution Fruit, Mental Power, Life Healing

Aura value: 0/20800 points

Bioenergy: 19000/20800 points

Faith power: 332,600 points

Looking at the system panel, Ye Feng couldn't help but smile.

In these ten days, even the contracted animals have improved so much, so his improvement is naturally more exaggerated.

The height of the tree directly increased by 1000 meters to 2000 meters. At this height, basically under good weather conditions, the residents of the entire Yangcheng City can see him when they look towards Xiaofeng Mountain.

Even the trunk diameter has exceeded 100 meters, reaching a full 104 meters. You should know that this is the diameter. If you calculate the cross-sectional area of ​​the trunk, it is about 8490 square meters.

Of course, the most exaggerated thing is the length of the roots, which has increased directly from 4500 meters when it just broke through the fifth level to 12400 meters.

The length of the roots will increase so much. The increase of 1000 meters when breaking through is only secondary. The more important thing is the increase in the length of the roots when adding points.

Every time Ye Feng adds a point, the length of the roots can increase by 10 centimeters, and he needs to add points 20,000 times to accumulate 2000 evolution points.

In other words, simply adding points can increase the length of the roots by a full 2000 meters.

When he broke through the initial stage of the fifth level, the roots were 4500 meters. Later, as long as he completed the addition of points, he did not need to break through, and the length of the roots could increase to 6500 meters.

In addition, the root length will increase by 1,000 meters when breaking through, which means that when he reaches the fifth level, he can increase the root length by 3,000 meters if he advances a small realm.

The sudden increase in the length of the root naturally increases the total amount of spiritual energy that can be harvested per hour.

Now the spiritual energy he can harvest per hour has increased from 7,200 points when he first entered the fifth level to more than 19,800 points.

Because of this, the time of breakthrough is much earlier than he expected.

Now his evolution points are as high as 1,900, and he only needs the last 100 points to break through to the peak of the fifth level.

Although 100 evolution points require 20,000 spiritual energy points, it is really nothing for Ye Feng now, and he can save enough in about an hour.

However, Ye Feng is not in a hurry. He plans to wait until tonight to break through. After all, thick fog in broad daylight is too conspicuous.

Of course, every time he breaks through, the entire Sunset Valley will be covered with thick fog. It is estimated that the high-level officials of Yangcheng City have already guessed something, especially the height of his tree trunk now, even ordinary people will think there is something wrong.

But the two sides are now in the "honeymoon period", some things are known to each other, and no one will break that window paper.

After breaking through to the peak of the fifth level tonight, the distance of his control over the world can be expanded by another 10 kilometers, reaching a full 65 kilometers.

In that case, almost the entire Yangcheng City can be covered.

In addition, the 332,600 points of faith power accumulated in the past 10 days should be able to deal with all emergencies.

While thinking about these things, Ye Feng released his mental power and began to sweep the opponent's 35-kilometer diameter area with himself as the center, counting the strength of the animal army.

After all, their information was not displayed on the attached panel, so if he wanted to understand the strength of these mutant animals, Ye Feng had to use mental power to explore.

After reaching the fifth level, Ye Feng's exploration distance with his mental power has increased from 1 kilometer to 5 kilometers.

Of course, this refers to the maximum distance that can be explored after leaving the body.

You should know that the length of Ye Feng's tree roots has reached 12,400 meters, which is 12.4 kilometers. On this basis, if it extends 5 kilometers outward, the maximum distance he can explore is 17.5 kilometers, and this is only the radius, and the diameter can reach 35 kilometers.

Within this range, Ye Feng's mental power can quickly sweep, even a mutant ant can't escape his exploration.

It is worth mentioning that as the tree roots have grown beyond the Sunset Valley, his "territory" has also expanded, so he has allowed animals in the valley to go out as long as they do not exceed the range of his tree roots.

It is also because of this that many mutant creatures have now left the Sunset Valley and live in the Dongling Mountains.

This scene is also what Ye Feng is happy to see. After all, so many mutant creatures are piled up in the Sunset Valley. In order to solve the food of those carnivores every day, he needs to capture at least thousands of mutant mice and put them in.

Now they have gone to the Dongling Mountains, and they can hunt mutant mice by themselves, which makes Ye Feng much less worried.

It is worth mentioning that the second-level mutant mice are comparable to small dogs in size, and they are second-level mutant creatures, and they contain a lot of energy.

Therefore, even large animals such as second-level tigers and lions can be full after eating seven or eight mutant mice in one meal.

Ye Feng explored very quickly and counted them in a short time.

First of all, the air force, 800 mutant sparrows, 400 mutant black crows, 400 mutant bats, 10 mutant parrots, 5 mutant goshawks.

The size of the air force is almost the same as before, but the ground force has changed a lot.

400 mutant dogs, 400 mutant mice, 100 mutant buffaloes, 50 mutant wild wolves, 35 mutant honey badgers, 30 mutant hedgehogs, 30 mutant Siberian tigers, 30 mutant Asian lions, 28 mutant white rhinos, 25 mutant African elephants, 25 mutant hippos, 20 mutant brown bears, 20 mutant jaguars, 10 mutant giant pandas, and 10 mutant king cobras.

It can be said that the strength of the ground force has definitely improved by several levels compared to before.

After all, there were no ground troops before, and there were only 400 mutant mice to support the scene.

But now it is different. Apart from other things, the 400 mutant dogs alone have directly increased the overall strength of the ground forces several times.

Moreover, the 400 mutant dogs that Ye Feng let the big yellow dog control are all large dogs, such as police dogs, golden retrievers, Labradors, Alaskan sled dogs, Rottweilers, Cane Corso dogs, Samoyeds, Tibetan mastiffs, Scottish shepherd dogs and the like.

These large dogs are not much inferior to mutant wild wolves in terms of combat power. Under the unified dispatch of 400 second-level mutant dogs, according to Ye Feng's estimation, they can easily destroy more than two regiments of troops on the front battlefield.

In addition to these mutant dogs, the number of mutant buffaloes has also increased sharply to 100. Putting them on the battlefield is simply 100 mobile tanks.

However, it is estimated that it will not be easy to increase like this in the future. These mutant buffaloes were found by Ye Feng in Yangcheng City and even in several surrounding cities by sending mutant goshawks.

If you want to find it again in the future, you will probably have to look for it across cities, or buy it directly.

As for the rest, although the number is a little less, they are all very strong.

Especially the Siberian tiger, Asian lion, African elephant, white rhino, hippopotamus, brown bear, these mutant creatures brought out from the zoo, their combat power in the same level is far superior to ordinary mutant creatures.

Putting them on the battlefield, although I dare not say that they can turn the tide, but there is no problem in changing the trend of local wars.

Of course, in addition to the air force and the ground force, Ye Feng has now separated an insect force.

The insect force is composed of mutant red fire ants and mutant bumblebees.

After more than ten days of development, both the number of ant colonies and bee colonies has increased a lot, breaking through the 20,000 mark.

In other words, the strength of the insect force is as high as 40,000.

And the reason why Ye Feng listed an insect force separately is naturally for a reason.

Ten days ago, the mutant red fire ant queen and the mutant bumblebee queen broke through to the third level.

Then Ye Feng discovered that after they broke through to the third level, the eggs they produced were different. They were a circle larger than the previous eggs, and the larvae after hatching were also stronger than before.

Of course, if that was all, Ye Feng would not pay too much attention.

What really surprised him was that the development speed of these new ants, from eggs to larvae, then to pupae, and finally to ants, only took 4 days.

Then out of curiosity, Ye Feng sent an evolution fruit to give this batch of newest ants sufficient spiritual energy to grow.

With spiritual energy nourishment from birth, coupled with abundant food, these latest generation of mutant red fire ants, their growth rate is like blowing balloons, which is completely different every day.

Of course, what Ye Feng cares most about is their realm.

Even the little ants who have just broken out of the pupa, their cultivation speed is actually no different from that of other animals. In just one day, they broke through from the first level to the second level.

Then it took another two days to reach the peak of the second level.

Originally, Ye Feng thought that it was over by now. After all, the current concentration of spiritual energy could only support these mutant creatures to break through to the second level on a large scale.

But something happened that surprised Ye Feng. These new generation of red fire ants seemed to have no bottleneck and easily broke through to the third level.

If it was just one mutant red fire ant, Ye Feng would not care, maybe it was just a gift.

But the same batch of 300 mutant red fire ants, without exception, all broke through to the third level, which means something completely different.

And it's not just the mutant red fire ants, the little bees hatched from the mutant bumblebees are also in the same situation.

Finally, according to Ye Feng's guess, the reason for this should be related to the queen ant and queen bee breaking through to the third level.

They broke through to the third level, which means they are third-level creatures, and the offspring born can naturally break through to the third level.

After reaching this conclusion, the status of the queen ant and queen bee in Ye Feng's heart instantly rose to the same level as those mutant creatures that can break through on their own.

After all, this means that as long as the realm of the queen ant and queen bee is raised, it is equivalent to raising the potential of the entire group.

It is estimated that in the near future, the overall realm of the ant colony and the bee colony will far exceed the subordinates of the other contracted animals.

Because their realm can only follow the process of spiritual energy recovery, although Ye Feng can provide them with spiritual energy, he has no intention of helping them break through the realm.

After all, that consumes too much.

Ye Feng can still afford the first and second level evolution fruits with a gritted teeth.

But the third level evolution fruit requires a full 1200 points of spiritual energy and bioenergy to make one.

And when it comes to the fourth level evolution fruit, the required spiritual energy and bioenergy soar to 20,000 points.

If each subordinate of the contracted animal is given an evolution fruit, he doesn't need to improve his strength.

What's more, there are fifth, sixth and even higher levels behind.

It is precisely because of this that the role of the fire red ant queen and the bumblebee queen is instantly highlighted.

And according to their current cultivation speed, I am afraid that they will be able to break through to the fourth level in about five days.

At that time, the new generation of mutant red fire ants and mutant bumblebees will be able to break through to the fourth level.

Although the fourth-level mutant ants and bees are definitely not as good as other fourth-level mutant animals, if one can't beat them, then what about 10 or 100!

As the saying goes, ants can kill elephants, as long as there are enough, there is nothing to worry about.

What's more, Ye Feng's positioning for them has never been to deal with mutant animals of the same level, but to deal with enemies of lower levels than them.

At that time, with the advantage in realm and number, the effect will be terrifying.

As for whether there will be less spiritual energy to cultivate after the number of mutant red fire ants and mutant bumblebees increases, Ye Feng is not worried about this problem.

On the one hand, the speed of his spiritual energy collection will become faster and faster in the future.

On the other hand, the spiritual energy absorbed by mutant red fire ants and mutant bumblebees is very small, about only 1% of the mutant dogs of the same level.

So don't look at the current insect army with a full 40,000 people, but in fact, the spiritual energy they consume is only about the same as 400 mutant dogs.

"It's only now that my animal army has truly taken shape." Ye Feng couldn't help but sighed after counting all the mutant animals.
