Law of the Swarm

Chapter 82 Brief Pupation
After some consideration, System still decided to transform his talent [Molting Growth] into [Pupation] first. After all, he had been preparing for transforming this talent for several months, and System didn't want to produce more There were twists and turns.

As long as he waits for Shava to wake up from the coma, with Shava acting as a guard, he can activate the [Pupation] talent with peace of mind.

After inspecting the piece of meat for a while, System once again recalled the inexplicable behavior of the glacier lord before. It seemed that his eyes contained an ability that even the glacier lord did not possess.

Clicking on the self-information in the [Tools menu] to browse, System did not find any strange things worth noting about the derived ability [System's Eye].

"Could it be that, as the Glacier Lord said, after strengthening the [Eye of System], can you discover anything?"

System didn't think of anything in the end, and he didn't plan to strengthen [System's Eye] immediately.

Compared with the inexplicable words of the Lord of Glacier, he finally decided to strengthen himself according to his original pace, so that he could grow into a magical life as soon as possible.

……

System, who was studying the pieces of meat in the empty room, soon discovered the familiar figure, which was the worker ant Black.

"Wang, have you found those five ants? Sawa seems to be injured, is she okay?" Black seemed to have found the injured Sawa, looking worried.

Compared with Shava, Black is more intelligent, and usually notices some things that System did not think of.

"They are dead, but the matter has been resolved, Shava will recover in two days." System reached out his tentacles, and gently touched Black's head.

All the ant people are his children, but even if they are the same children, there are differences between them. Black is his favorite worker ant.

"Wang, do I need to tell other ants that they can continue to go out to find food?" Black continued to ask.

"Well, then you tell them to go out to collect food as usual, no, I'll do it myself."

System put the piece of meat aside, and moved out of the empty room.

Five ant people were killed by an attack by an unknown creature. Although the current threat has been lifted, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no next time.

System decided to send spiritual messages to these ants, telling them not to attack unknown creatures at every turn, so as to avoid unnecessary casualties again.

Although his spiritual information may not be able to completely control the long-term habits of ants, it is better than him doing nothing.

……

After dealing with the matter of the ants' children in the nest, System continued to study the core of flesh and blood, and ate the minced meat that contained the blood of demons.

These foods containing demon blood have a strange taste, and the experience they provide is dozens of times that of chrysalis of the same weight.

The first few pieces System ate would produce some tyrannical and chaotic emotions, but after continuing to eat a few pieces, this abnormal emotion decreased a lot, and it only made him feel a little dizzy, but The more you eat, the stronger the dizziness will be.

After continuing to eat for a while, observing that his experience bar was about to reach the threshold of level 14 to 15, System stopped eating, lest the level be improved, causing the experience bar he had stored for nearly a month to disappear.

And through continuous observation and comparison, System found the primitive race of insects like meatballs by comparing the information records in the [Tools Menu], which is similar to a small aquatic insect that is less than one centimeter in size after adulthood.

System couldn't name this kind of insect. He found it twice in the puddle half a year ago, and even briefly studied it with his tentacles.

The body is translucent and soft, and even the exoskeleton can change its shape. It is estimated that the deformation ability of the meat ball is inherited from the body of this insect.

Because of the comparison of the information left before, System has a clearer feeling about the ability of [Transformation] in the blood of the meatball. It seems that this ability has something in common with the change of insect body in [Pupation].

However, it will take a longer time for System to determine exactly what this [transformation] ability is.

Through further observation, System found that although the core of the meatball lost consciousness, its activity did not decrease over time, but tended to be stable, and it seemed that it would not lose its activity in a short period of time.

When he put some moss and mushrooms in the forest on this piece of meat, after a few minutes, the piece of meat will slowly wriggle and swallow the moss and mushrooms, and start to slowly absorb...

……

……

Two days passed, and System's research on that core did not make much progress.

On this day, Shava successfully woke up.

After ordering Shava to guard outside his empty space, System began to transform his [Molt Growth] into [Pupation].

Wrapping a [-]-centimeter-sized butterfly pupa tightly with its tentacles, System, who had already made the final preparations, began to transform his [molting growth] with reference to the life in the butterfly pupa. .

After nearly half a year of preparation, the process of System's talent transformation went extremely smoothly.

Half a day was much less time than he expected. In just 4 hours, System had completely transformed his blood talent, and the remaining 30% of his experience bar had not been used.

……

[Pupation] (13/19): System's unique talent formed by transforming [Molting Growth].The body of the insect undergoes drastic changes through chrysalis.The unique talent of insects.

……

After the transformation, System has been upgraded to level 15 [Molting Growth] to level 13 [Pupation], but compared to [Molting Growth], System's transformation has gained the upper limit of the talent level of [Pupalization] Being taller also made him feel more information in his blood.

As long as the [Pupation] talent level is raised to level 17, and the level of the green-tailed grasshopper is raised to the upper limit of level 15, he can perform the third chrysalis.

When he breaks out of the chrysalis, the level limit of the green-tailed grasshopper will be broken, making him a magical life and gaining a new level limit.

Just like that ball of meat, the level is around 25, and the level limit is around 60, it has become a brand new life.

System also felt what he would look like when he emerged from the chrysalis in the future through the information of the bloodline.

He will no longer turn back into a grasshopper, but will form a brand new insect full of tentacles like his current body.

Different from the strange appearance of his current grasshopper body covered with tentacles, its body shape will become very natural at that time, even if the whole body is covered with tentacles, it will not feel very weird.

"Is my future going to be like this?"

System felt his future appearance, and at the same time continued to check other information in the [Tools Menu] to see if there were any changes in other abilities of his body.

But in the process of checking the information, System suddenly found that his body became very itchy, and there was a strange feeling in his veins.

System immediately sensed the reason for this strange feeling. After all, there are some differences between [Molting Growth] and [Pupation].

Although he has molted three times, he has never pupated, so he must complete this process, making up for the first pupation and the second pupation...
