In the same level of evolvers, Ye Zhongming rarely encounters opponents.
When the levels are matched, this dual seventh-level sea beast loses its overwhelming advantage in power.
Just as Ye Zhongming was about to stab the edge of the moon into this creature's body, he was called out by Xiao Peng who was nearby.
"Try this."
A somewhat shaken Xiao Peng pulled out something from his pocket and threw it to Ye Zhongming.
"Domestication test tube?!"
Ye Zhongming's eyes lit up; this was a good item.
There are many methods for subduing battle pets, most of which rely on the capabilities of equipment. However, these pieces of equipment vary, and evolvers prefer direct capture equipment.
But such equipment comes with many restrictions. The captured battle pets must meet various conditions regarding their level and circumstances.
There are also some special equipment for capturing battle pets; they have restrictions too, but they offer certain advantages in terms of the pets' levels.
For example, the domestication test tube that Ye Zhongming held in his hand had very strict conditions: the mutated life form it contained had to be on the brink of death, the domestication process required essence blood and mental strength, and the domestication time was quite long...
In short, there were plenty of conditions.
But there was one point that made evolvers flock to it: once domestication was successful, the mutated life form would not be downgraded; it would retain the evolution level it had when it was captured in the test tube.
Ye Zhongming glanced at Xiao Peng, then pierced the edge of the moon into the body of the oncoming sea beast. A few seconds later, the gigantic sea beast was on the verge of death.
Activating the domestication test tube, the massive sea beast was enveloped in light. However, this dual magic crystal creature was beyond caring; it was about to die, its consciousness already blurred.
Soon, the massive body began to shrink, and the miraculous scene made the three of them stare in awe. When the sea beast had shrunk to the thickness of a human finger, it was sucked into the domestication test tube.
Ye Zhongming let out a breath, and his mind received some information. First, it confirmed that energy had to be provided through essence blood and mental strength, and then he saw some details about this sea beast.
"Sixth-level copper ink sea anemone (second mutation), state 1, dying. State 2, domestication in progress."
"Domestication time, under sufficient essence blood and mental strength, domestication time is three hundred hours."
Although it did not provide a detailed introduction to this mutated life form, it was enough for Ye Zhongming to understand a few things.
For instance, the dual magic crystal issue, which he was most concerned about.
Second mutation?
Ye Zhongming had heard of those four words, but only in novels he'd read during peaceful times. During the apocalypse, he was sure he had not received this kind of information.
Life... can undergo a second mutation?
Ye Zhongming suddenly felt that even after a year of rebirth, the fog of the apocalypse had not dissipated at all. Instead, it had become even murkier as he gained top-tier strength through his advantages.
This feeling was not good, and a hint of gloom appeared in Ye Zhongming's eyes.
"Uh, let's go."
Xiao Peng's voice trembled slightly. Ye Zhongming looked over and saw huge waves in the beast tide. A massive number of black sea beasts were rushing towards them, targeting the three of them.
"Run!"
Despite Ye Zhongming and Xia Bai having previously burst out of the beast tide, that was because the two of them had adopted a low-profile attack strategy, and since the beast tide was under strict orders to attack the Inner City, they had fought their way out.
But now it was different; this group of at least tens of thousands of sea beasts was clearly coming for them. With so many mutated life forms attacking together, even the strong Xia Bai and Ye Zhongming did not dare to be reckless. If they were surrounded, it would be a situation where they would be exhausted from fighting.
