In less than an hour, the fly traps in several breeding houses were dealt with.
"Ding, your Apostle has killed a fly. Congratulations, Host, you have gained 0.2 Evolution Points..." Zhou Qi watched the information constantly refreshing on the light screen.

"What would a mosquito turn into if it were enhanced?" Zhou Qi mused, watching the mosquitoes circling the light.
Then, he tiptoed under the light bulb, slowly brought his hands together in a semicircle, and with a sudden clasp, the mosquito was securely cupped in his palm.
"Begin enhancement," Zhou Qi thought.
"Ding, consumed 0.2 Evolution Points. The mosquito has evolved into a First-Tier Mosquito. Congratulations, Host, you have gained Elementary intimacy with the First-Tier Mosquito."
...
"Ding, consumed 3.2 Evolution Points. The mosquito has evolved into a Fifth-Tier Mosquito. Congratulations, Host, you have gained the Fifth-Tier Mosquito's undying loyalty."
"Ding, congratulations, Host, for successfully enhancing a Fifth-Tier Mosquito and advancing to a First-Tier Apostle. You have gained the talents: Fast Movement, Blood Drain, Mouthpart Enhancement, and Mosquito Summoning."
Only after reading the information on the light screen did Zhou Qi slowly open his clasped hands, only to see that this Fifth-Tier Mosquito had undergone a great transformation.
The evolved mosquito was about the size of a thumb, with broad, intricately patterned wings, possessing super-strong flight capabilities. Visible air ripples were created, yet it made no sound.
Its head was sharp as a blade, and its mouthpart was thick and hard, like an alloy steel drill bit, covered in barbs, capable of easily penetrating leather and animal skin.
Inside, there were multiple thin tubes that could inject anesthetic and anticoagulant substances, making the bloodsucker feel no pain. Its abdomen was also as large as a normal mosquito.
Fast Movement: Short-distance movement speed increased fivefold.
Blood Drain: Blood-sucking ability increased fivefold.
Mouthpart Enhancement: Mouthpart sharpness and hardness increased fivefold.
Mosquito Summoning: Can summon 50 mosquitoes to fight for it.
Zhou Qi felt his scalp tingle as he looked at it. If that mouthpart were to pierce him, it would be terrible, not to mention it had four talents!
"Go, find a living creature and test this mosquito's strength." Zhou Qi took the Fifth-Tier Mosquito outside. After thinking for a moment, he gave the Fifth-Tier Mosquito an order to go to the village and find a dog to suck blood from.
As for the many pigs in his own farm, he decided against it. It would be a loss if they were to get swine fever after being bitten by this Fifth-Tier Mosquito.
The Fifth-Tier Mosquito flew off to search for prey. Since he had to wait for a while anyway, Zhou Qi sat on a lounge chair outside the breeding house and scrolled through his phone.
Perhaps because it was early morning, the videos playing on Kuaishou were all about science fiction and mystery.
"Shocking! Villagers in the Baishan area of Northeast China discovered a Dragon-like figure flying in the sky during rainy weather."
"The Earth is actually not spherical, but rather a continent-like shape. An Antarctic ice wall surrounds the entire boundary of the Human Race. Behind the ice wall are other intelligent races and various monsters."
--------------------
"Is this Kuaishou at night the same app as during the day?" Zhou Qi raised an eyebrow and muttered.
As he spoke, Zhou Qi saw a blogger with the ID: "Antarctic Weirdo" who was live-streaming, and he clicked in.
The blogger named "Antarctic Weirdo" was struggling through the ice and snow. The scene looked very ordinary, with the entire screen filled with a vast expanse of white.
"Families, I am an adventure blogger. You can call me Big Head. I am currently at the southernmost point of the Earth, where it is currently polar day.
At this time, the sun does not set, and it is daytime all day long. My destination is to go to the Lambert Glacier and experience its majestic grandeur..."
A middle-aged man, wearing a bright orange professional windbreaker, black thickened windbreaker pants that could be tied to snow boots, a black knitted hat, and non-slip leather gloves, was fully equipped and tightly sealed.
He looked very thick but not bulky. His head, indeed, was much larger than an ordinary person's, just as he had said.
As he walked forward, the crunching sound of his feet on the compacted snow kept coming.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew and a blizzard raged on the screen. The blogger frantically hid in an ice cave. When he came out again, the sight before him completely stunned Zhou Qi.
It was no longer the vast white Antarctic, but a mysterious world full of lush vegetation, with giant plants soaring into the clouds!
Various strange rocks and green plants rose and fell, thin mist permeated the forest, and not far away was a large lake, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Immediately after, the camera showed strange creatures with fish bodies and bird wings flying close to the water, as well as creatures with lion bodies, bird wings, and human faces with snake tails moving through the grass.
Is the Classic of Mountains and Seas coming to life? Zhou Qi's eyes widened. He couldn't believe what he was seeing, and his hands trembled uncontrollably.
Although it was already 2 AM, the audience in the live stream had reached over 2000, and the screen was being flooded with comments: "Is this real? What on earth is going on!" "It must be special effects. The streamer is crazy to get famous."
At this moment, Big Head also reacted, looking at the surrounding scene, bewildered and at a loss.
He began to speak tremblingly. Zhou Qi only saw the streamer open his mouth, but no sound came through.
"Is my phone broken? I turned the volume to maximum but heard no sound."
"My phone too. It must be the streamer's phone's microphone that's broken."
Big Head had originally brought a team, wanting to create an image similar to Bear Grylls or Ed Stafford as a lone wolf, so he had left his team at a nearby camp.
He had come here alone, and now he was filled with regret. He opened his mouth, wanting the audience in the live stream to call the police for him.
But he saw the comments saying they couldn't hear his voice, and he didn't dare to make a sound.
He could only curl his trembling body under a strange tree, fearing that making too much noise would attract those monsters.
Zhou Qi looked at the screen, estimating that the streamer was probably terrified and paralyzed on the ground. The camera installed on his head was pointing at the sky above.
The white sky seemed to have no sun, with no sunlight reaching the ground, yet strangely, the sky was bright.
At this moment, the camera began to move. It was still pointing at the sky, but the camera was rapidly moving backward! As if something was dragging the streamer backward!
"Oh my God, is something dragging the streamer?"
"This can't be a script, can it?"
"These special effects are quite realistic, much better than those big movies from the White-Headed Eagle country."
"If this is special effects, then our Dragon Country's film industry would have long since dominated the world."
Just as people were getting chills, the live stream suddenly stopped, and the screen went black...
