Law of the Swarm

Chapter 200 The First Arrival

System, who has mastered [Shadow Incarnation], gradually understands several levels of [Shadow Incarnation].

Among them, the [Shadow Incarnation] of level 1-10 is only the ability of mortal things, it can only form a shadow that cannot move, it is in a fixed position, and can monitor the surroundings.

[Shadow Avatar] is between the 11th and 20th levels, it belongs to the power of magic, and can form an incarnation like a ghost.

And the [Shadow Avatar] with extraordinary ability can already create an avatar with a physical body.

As for the legendary ability above the extraordinary, System is still unknown, after all, the [Shadow Avatar] he obtained is only level 25.

However, System's biggest gain from the [Shadow Incarnation] ability is not simply the ability to create an avatar, but to split a part of his consciousness so that the avatar can also have self-awareness.

The use of this ability gave System a lot of inspiration.

Mortal-level [Shadow Avatar] can only last for one to two days, magic-level [Shadow Avatar] can last for seven or eight days, and extraordinary-level [Shadow Avatar] can last for a month.

System can share the senses of the avatar at any time, or not control the avatar, allowing the avatar to be freely controlled by the split consciousness.

When the avatar dies due to the time limit, or is killed, the memory of the avatar will return to System's body, which is a very magical spiritual power.

It's a pity that System has not yet figured out the principle of split consciousness. He only knows that with his spiritual power, if he wants to use the extraordinary [Shadow Avatar], he must prepare for about seven days before splitting his consciousness and recovering it. It takes a while to use this ability again.

And [Shadow Avatar] can only exist one at a time, if there are too many summons, the previously summoned avatars will also perish.

……

While System was researching and analyzing [Shadow Incarnation], an abyss toad nearly 2 meters high jumped and rushed towards System.

The environment of the abyss is like this, full of danger and struggle all the time, perhaps because hundreds of tons of [plague mucus] disappeared, giving this toad the desire to attack him.

System ignored the big death-seeking toad, spread his wings and flew towards his underground floating island.

He needs to prepare the extraordinary level [Shadow Incarnation] for a few days, but he can use the mortal level [Shadow Avatar] now, System decided to go back underground to experiment.

Because the distance was only a few kilometers, System returned to the entrance of the underground passage after flying for a few minutes.

A few hours later, his ant people were still cutting and carrying the body of the flying dragon. The body of the female flying dragon had been moved, and one-third of the male flying dragon had been moved.

From time to time, a few large worker ants would fly up in the air to carry some flesh and blood scattered on the ground back to their nests, and some ants would suck the blood of the flying dragons that could not be carried on the ground.

The ants carried the body of the flying dragon well, but the skin and bone of the flying dragon are still too hard for the ant's fangs. The work of dividing basically depends on the meat ball and the fully armed lizard man Thunderclaw holding a sharp axe. Otherwise, the ant's Quantity, these two flying dragons have already been transported.

System discovered that there were two lizardmen mixed among the ants, and it seemed that the remaining lizardmen also followed suit and got busy with the ants.

However, System found that these lizardmen were a bit weird. Every once in a while, they would look at the two broken flying dragon eggs on the ground, even the lizardmen Thunderclaw who was chopping up the body of the flying dragon.

Thinking of the lizardman's lightning ability, System estimated that the flying dragon eggs with lightning power would be very attractive to the lizardmen.

It was only because of his deterrence that the lizardman suppressed his inner desire for flying dragon eggs.

After thinking about it for a while, System decided to distribute the two broken dragon eggs to one of the lizardmen, and he also gave Thunderclaw the dragon's head.

The lizardman's intelligence is not too low. System estimated that Thunderclaw's use of the flying dragon's head should be able to make more lizardman tribes submit to it.

However, how many of the Lizardman's subordinates were of no obvious use to System, and System just took advantage of the situation.

The head of the flying dragon can play a good role, but if it doesn't work, it's okay to maintain the scale of more than 100 lizardmen.

With the help of System, several lizardmen quickly left with the frozen flying dragon eggs and the head of the flying dragon. After a few ten minutes, the body of the male flying dragon was successfully moved back to the underground palace by the ants... …

……

After returning to the underground palace, System began to try to use the ability of [Shadow Incarnation] while eating the bones of the flying dragon.

It's a pity that System, who was eating the bones of the flying dragon, made no progress in using [Shadow Avatar].

It's not that there is any problem with System's power control, but because the bones of the flying dragon are so delicious that System temporarily put down his research on [Shadow Avatar].

After many years, when System came to this world, he finally ate charcoal-grilled beef-flavored food, mixed with some cumin aroma.

Although the bones were very hard and System could not digest too much in a short period of time, it still moved System infinitely.

It wasn't until he gnawed on the bones for nearly three hours that System gradually remembered the experiment of [Shadow Incarnation].

……

The most basic [Shadow Avatar] does not consume System experience points, it only needs him to condense some shadow energy and consume a small amount of spiritual power and vitality to create a success.

Because of the extraordinary level of shadow ability, System can accumulate shadow energy dozens of times faster than before, and the junior [Shadow Incarnation] System can be created in an instant.

This [Shadow Avatar] looks like a ball of black smoke the size of a basketball. System can use this smoke to see a 360-degree black and white scene without dead ends, but he cannot hear the sound.

The smoke cannot be manipulated, and it can resist some breezes, but if encountering strong winds, or being passed through by System, [Shadow Incarnation] will be wiped out.

The magic-level [Shadow Incarnation] System separated the mental power for a whole day to form it. In addition to the necessary shadow power, it also consumed about 5% of System's experience points and 5% of his vitality.

Magic level [Shadow Avatar] is similar to ghosts, not afraid of strong winds, and can hide in the shadows. It also has hearing, and has the ability to use [Shadow Arrow], [Debilitating Art], etc., and its combat power is around 3.

As for the extraordinary [Shadow Incarnation], it was faster than System expected, and System completed the separation of consciousness in just five days.

After 50% of the experience was consumed, and System spent a whole day infusing 70% of his health, a [Shadow Incarnation] similar to his main body also appeared.

Extraordinary [Shadow Avatar] does not consume much shadow energy, roughly the same as Magical [Shadow Avatar].

Because of the fusion of a large amount of System's experience points and vitality, a physical avatar with almost the same appearance as System was formed, and it could also carry several weakened versions of System's abilities.

This incarnation carries System's [Dragon Scale Spike] and [Plague Slime] abilities, and its combat power is around 50.

It was also not long after System created this avatar that the call from the main plane appeared to him again...
