In the first half month of the rainy season, Sisterm has strengthened his talent [Pupalization] to 90% of level 16. It is only one step away from upgrading [Pupation] to level 17, and is about to achieve the third time soon. Conditions for pupation.
However, Sisterm did not solve his fundamental problem, how to completely avoid the threat of the druid and the ratman.
So, Systrom, who gave up continuing to strengthen his physical abilities, began to take time to study with Black the words left by the rat man wizard and study some books about the plague.
The so-called plague spell requires communication with Rafael and sacrifice, otherwise it cannot be cast at all.
But not all books describe plague spells.
In fact, most of the books on the plague of the Scavenger Wizard have nothing to do with the plague spell, and they are mainly about the research and cultivation of the plague.
Although the use of plague spells can make the target infect the plague in an instant, but this plague is at least ten times weaker than the plague formed by the rat man after blending.
Sisterm also read the notes of the scavenger sorcerer Lance and realized how terrifying the dozens of large and small bottles of plague reagent he drank at the beginning. Almost all plagues can be used against jackals or wolves within a few hours. The fatal effect of the pig head.
But unfortunately, this plague has almost no effect on insects.
And Systrom's biggest gain from the Ratman Wizard is a transparent cube with a side length of about five centimeters. The material is similar to glass or crystal.
At first this crystal was given by Systrom to Shava to play with.
After learning the words of the Ratman these days, Sisterm knew that this square object was a magical object, which could act like a microscope and observe microscopic things.
This magic crystal can be activated by most energies. Sisterm can be activated by casting the energy of frost and the natural power of the druid, but his [perception] and [psychic transmission] power cannot be activated. This crystal has an effect.
This is also the reason why Sisterm didn't discover that this spar was a magic item.
Except for this crystal, the skull props Systrom, which can produce hallucinations, are still unusable. It seems that they need to communicate and obtain the power of the evil Rafael.
……
Sistem first watched him [Plague Mucus] through the magic microscope, and then observed his own blood, mushrooms and slimes.
Sistem discovered that the microbes that make up slime glue are just like the emotions he feels with [Teleportation], not much different from mushrooms.
On a whim, Weststrom decided to use the Ratman’s cultivation technology for the plague to try to change the slime’s form and turn the slime into a mushroom. To be precise, it would deprive the slime of the ability to jump around. Let the slime be obediently as food.
But Sisterm really took it for granted. Although the slime has a simple form and structure, it is not a bug that can be transformed by Sisterm's tentacles [sense] into the bloodline.
So Fangtem, who used the Rat Man to cultivate the plague, had no results after a few days of transformation, and the slime's glue was still alive and kicking.
In the process of cultivating the glowing mushrooms, Sisterm accidentally caused the slime to swallow the glowing mushrooms, producing a fleeting glare, like a flashing light.
When these days are boring, Systrom also tries to understand how slimes glow.
But the glowing slime only appeared once, and after that, Sisterm could no longer make the slime glow by swallowing mushrooms.
Searching for the image data in the [Tools Menu], Systrom did not find any clues, it seems that the slime's glare was just a coincidence.
After all, in fact, whether the slime can emit strong light has no obvious use to Sisterm.
So today after fiddling with him for a while and found that there was no progress, he ate the research slime and some fluorescent mushrooms into his stomach.
Sistem finally gave up this useless research.
……
……
As Sisterm had expected, the gradual decrease in rainfall continued for another 4 days. The 20-day rainy season was completely over. The sky became clear, only scattered clouds drifted by, and the breeze was not strong.
It is sunny after rain, and the humid but not cold air makes insects feel very comfortable.
Sistem can finally use [Sistem's Eye] in the sky to observe things in the distance, after all, the rain blocking the line of sight is too strong.
The rat-man gathering place more than 100 kilometers to the west was silent, only calm water surface, it seemed that the whole rat-man gathering place was flooded by rain.
The higher slopes a few kilometers away from the rat people gathering place were not submerged by rain. Sisterm saw some vague mud footprints around the openings of the caves. It seems that the rat people are still alive.
Observing the Liert Forest to the east, the elves are as usual. The accumulated rain did not affect them too much. They still stayed leisurely in the tree house, and some elves were swimming happily with the leopards in the water. .
嗷~
A loud bird song interrupted Sisterm’s thinking. The grasshopper’s bloodline was born with a fear of birds. Even if ordinary birds pose no threat to Sisterm, Sisterm would subconsciously. His heartbeat accelerated.
is the black eagle that is common in the grassland. This black eagle seems to have spotted the Sistem flying in the air and fled in panic.
"Is it the one I missed last time?"
As the overlord of the prairie sky~EbookFREE.me~, the general black hawk will not take the initiative to flee even if he sees Sistem's weird appearance, at most he will not attack him, and this black hawk is obviously against Sith Tem was full of fear.
Sistem also did not pursue the black eagle that flew away, slowly descended from the sky, and returned to his lair.
……
Everything around has calmed down, there was no obvious movement of the nearby rat people, the elves of the Lilter forest did not move significantly, and his [intuition] did not feel any uneasy feeling.
Perhaps his [intuition] can only perceive things that are close in time, and the surrounding ratmen or druids may also find his lair.
But where can this world be absolutely safe.
It's like he used to shed his skin carefully in the Lilter Forest. It was much more dangerous than he is now.
There are always various dangers in this world, and he can't just wait forever like this.
Sisterm decided to pupate in the near future.
The accumulation of water at a depth of half a meter on the grassland is falling quickly, and Systrom estimates that the rainwater that has accumulated around here will fall completely within half a month.
If the ratman, the elves, and his [intuition] still have no movement after the rain has completely fallen, Systrom decides to pupate for the third time, break the level lock, and become a magical creature.
In these ten days, Systrom decided to use the power of an excavator to dig a deep enough pupalization site for him, at least several tens of meters underground.
Although groundwater will appear as long as you dig down more than ten meters deep, Systrom believes that digging opportunities can solve this problem.
