Post-Apocalyptic: Unlimited Resources, Neighbor's Wife and Sister Beg for the Door to Open

Chapter 216 Beast Transformation and Mad Advancement! (Please continue reading!)

Lu Zheng's dimensional space ability has reached the ninth level. To advance to the next level, he needs at least 50 million third-level crystal cores.

He said "at least," but he didn't know the exact amount.

Perhaps even 100 million third-order crystal cores wouldn't be enough.

Now that people from two different worlds are working for him, he has no shortage of crystal cores.

It might take ten days or half a month to collect them all, but there's a good chance it will take a month.

The problem is that his current absorption rate of crystal nuclei is very limited.

It can absorb a maximum of two million crystals per day, and it would take fifty days to absorb one hundred million crystal cores.

This is a number that could only be achieved if she did nothing all day but focus solely on absorbing crystal cores.

If something takes up his time, or if he needs to be intimate with his women, the time required will be much longer.

Therefore, improving the absorption efficiency of crystal nuclei is crucial.

Lu Zheng also had no good solutions in this regard.

But the extraordinary supplies he received today gave him a glimmer of hope.

[Item: Beast Transformation Ability Fruit]

[Type: Extraordinary Supplies Card]

[Effect: Can obtain one Beast Transformation Fruit indefinitely]

The Beast Transformation Fruit grants the user the ability to transform into a beast. As the user's rank increases, an additional transformation form is granted for each rank.

They can transform into animals, and each level adds another form, making it equivalent to seventy-two transformations, although it's a bit less.

Lu Zheng went outside to give it a try.

This transformation indeed only includes the physical body, excluding clothing; the transformation is practically equivalent to stripping naked.

Of course, with feathers and other coverings, it's nothing.

The form of the beast transformation is random.

Lu Zheng's first change was with the golden eagle, which may be related to his own habit of being accustomed to golden eagles and having a lot of contact with them.

The first-tier beast transformation ability can only last for five minutes, after which the user's weight is roughly the same as their original weight.

It is no different from an ordinary golden eagle, and has no special abilities.

The ten fruits advanced to the second tier, and the new change they gained was a tiger.

Compared to the first stage, the second stage transformation lasts for ten minutes, and the transformed creature is heavier, but still about the same weight as an ordinary tiger.

Ten thousand fruits, advancing to the fifth tier, granting transformations into rabbits, wasps, and vultures respectively.

The transformation lasted for eighty minutes, and the weight reached ten tons.

Transforming into a rabbit or a wasp would allow you to reach this weight.

The ten-ton wasp is enormous, more than twice the size of a golden eagle of the same weight.

This is closely related to its physiological structure.

Such a large animal should not be able to survive in the current oxygen levels.

But the energy that sustains the body is not oxygen, but supernatural energy, so it makes perfect sense.

After transforming into a beast, the original abilities are retained.

Although he only outwardly appears to be a fifth-order beast-transformation ability user, Lu Zheng's ninth-order dimensional space ability, eighth-order divine power, ninth-order sword control technique, and so on, still exist.

This is clearly a means that can be used for disguise.

But most importantly, the resulting gigantic body effect allows him to directly consume crystal cores, thus accelerating the absorption of crystal cores.

Similarly, with superpower fruits like the Divine Power Fruit, one can consume thousands upon thousands at once, thereby rapidly increasing one's strength.

Take the Beast Transformation Fruit as an example. It would take a fruit worth 100 million to allow Lu Zheng to obtain the ninth-level Beast Transformation ability.

If you swallow 100,000 fruits in one gulp and digest them in ten minutes, that's 600,000 in an hour, 6 million in ten hours, and at least 10 million a day. In ten days, you can advance to the ninth rank.

However, at the same time, as the level of his beast transformation ability advances, the beasts that Lu Zheng transforms into will become even larger, and the absorption efficiency of the fruits he swallows in one gulp will greatly increase.

In reality, it won't take nearly ten days.

Furthermore, the absorption efficiency can be further increased after the effects of another type of extraordinary material are stacked.

[Item: Transformation Fruit]

[Type: Extraordinary Supplies Card]

[Effect: Allows you to obtain an unlimited number of Transformation Fruits]

The Shapeshifting Fruit increases flexibility and stretchability, granting the body the ability to transform.

This ability didn't offer any advantage at first.

The first-tier shapeshifting ability only increases jumping ability, body flexibility, and agility slightly.

For some elite melee fighters, this slight increase is enough to dramatically boost their combat power.

But for ordinary people, they still cannot contend with the lowest level of monsters.

It also takes ten fruits to advance to the second tier. The second-tier shapeshifting ability begins to show its unique characteristics.

The body can expand to a maximum size of 2.5 meters, increasing strength and significantly improving the body's resistance to impact.

The damage caused by blunt weapons is greatly reduced.

With one hundred crystal cores reaching the third tier, one's body can expand to five meters tall, greatly increasing strength. If only the arms are extended, one arm can reach ten meters in length.

If a martial arts master possessed such abilities, he could probably become the leader of the martial arts world.

After advancing to the fourth rank, one's height can reach ten meters, and after testing, the longest arm can reach fifteen meters.

What surprised Lu Zheng even more was that the skin and bones could be manipulated at will, creating all sorts of strange shapes. For example, it could condense a pair of wings, allowing him to fly like a bat.

Normally speaking, even if a human were given wings that are twenty meters long, he would not be able to fly.

On the one hand, the bones are too heavy and the muscles cannot provide enough lift; on the other hand, the oxygen supply is insufficient to provide the energy needed for flight.

However, with the ability to transform, the body structure can be adjusted. Flight consumes transformation energy and does not require oxygen for power. Therefore, it only needs a wingspan of seven meters to fly perfectly.

Of course, for Lu Zheng, he could easily transform into a golden eagle or fly directly on a sword.

This was just an experiment targeting a single superpower.

After absorbing 10,000 crystal cores and advancing to the fifth rank, the body size can become larger, as if every inch of the body can be made to change individually, and the control is also more precise.

It used to take two minutes to condense a pair of wings, but now it only takes half a minute!
The brain, internal organs, and other body parts can be placed in any different location on the body.

Cellular resilience is greatly enhanced, allowing the body to generate extremely strong projectile force like a slingshot, fully absorbing external kinetic energy and thus achieving the effect of deflecting physical attacks.

For Lu Zheng, the most crucial aspect is that all his organs can be altered, thereby enhancing his ability to absorb crystal cores and superpower fruits.

With the combination of his shapeshifting and beast-transformation abilities, Lu Zheng's size can become even larger.

Absorption capacity will naturally be greatly increased.

That night, Lu Zheng transformed into a beast outside and frantically absorbed the two fruits.

In less than a night, he successfully upgraded both of his superpowers to the eighth level.

That is, it absorbed more than 20 million fruits.

This absorption ability is also related to the large number of strengthening pills and divine power fruits that Lu Zheng had previously consumed.

Sharpening knives does not miss woodcutters.

The next morning, Lu Zheng gave a few casual instructions and then went to continue absorbing the two fruits with all his might.

Three days later, both superpowers advanced to the ninth rank.

This means that in less than three days, he absorbed 200 million fruits.
