The blood of insects is cold, which is what people often call cold-blooded animals.
Sisterm felt that his personality changed unconsciously after he was reborn.
After noticing that he was not threatening not long ago, he naturally snatched the plant sap collected by a few bugs, and he noticed a change in his personality.
While facing these live insect eggs with a diameter of one or two millimeters, Systrom's mind was also different from the original him
How would these eggs taste like?
……
The full eggs will hatch within a few days. Sisterm watched the live little life in the eggs slide from time to time in the translucent mucus of the eggs. From the shape of the eggs, they should be the larvae of butterflies or moths.
The human soul made Sisterm feel a little sick, but he did not hesitate to bite a soft egg with his chelate teeth.
The broken egg mucus exudes a faint smell, and Systrom took a bite of the mucus and aimed his chelating teeth at the lepidopteran larvae struggling in the mucus.
The slime tastes like sweet milk, and the fresh and tender larvae in the eggs give Systrom the feeling of tasting a mellow milk ice cream.
"It might taste better if it can be chilled."
Sisterm who swallowed the eggs gave birth to a strange idea.
This kind of protein-rich meat food is of great help to Sisterm, far beyond any plant leaves that Sisterm eats.
Sisterm could feel the slight changes in his body, the exoskeleton on his feet became stronger a little bit, and the chelate teeth in his mouth gradually became harder and sharper.
After waking up, he has been eating young leaves and leaf buds, but no matter how he eats it, his stomach is empty. After eating four or five eggs, he felt full in his stomach for the first time.
The tingling sensation of the body came again. In the process of watching around carefully and enjoying the food, Systrom's experience bar unknowingly reached the threshold of level increase.
In this upgrade, the feeling of body numbness is much stronger than when he was at level 1 and 2. Systrom did not find the reason in the data of [Self-Information Generation], but he knew it must be related to what he was eating. Eggs are related.
How can the growth brought about by only eating vegetables and meat and vegetables with balanced nutrition be the same, as long as you are not a fool, you can understand.
Even if you go to the gym to exercise, you must match it with nutritious beef or protein powder. Otherwise, the daily radish and greens will not be as effective as others for one or two months after hard training.
……
After upgrading to level 4, Systrom's body size has grown from 0.7 cm to 1 cm, his body's exoskeleton has become much harder, and his chelate teeth have become stronger and sharper. It is estimated that he can handle the previously difficult to crush. Mature leaves.
Compared with the growth on the surface of the body, the growth in the blood of Sisterm is even greater.
[Degenerate Growth] (10/13) grows into [Degenerate Growth] (11/13), which is upgraded from level 10 to level 11.
From the bloodline, a strange picture came, and Systrom felt that the appearance of the adult grasshopper he became in the future became more fierce and stronger.
Not only that, Sisterm feels the inheritance information in his bloodline secretly, as long as he raises [Degeneration and Growth] to level 13, his body can undergo a third degeneration. After level 5 and 8, he It can also undergo a whole new transformation.
And after completing the third metamorphosis, he can even hear the voice of the world once.
But about what the sound of the world is, Systrom found no more information in his blood, only knowing that it is a very mysterious thing.
Through this upgrade, Sisterm’s talent [Insect Adaptability] (6/21) has also grown and changed to [Insect Adaptability] (8/21), which is directly improved by two levels.
Sisterm felt the blood in his whole body become more active, his body seemed to become more sensitive, and he also acquired a brand-new derivative skill [Dark Vision].
……
[Dark Vision] (2/5): Derived skills obtained from [Insect Adaptability]. As long as you have a weak fluorescence, you can perceive things around you in the dark.
……
The effect of the derivative skill [Dark Vision] can be felt somewhat, but the specific effect will not be determined until the actual use at night.
If the effect of this [dark vision] is not ideal, Systrom will still give up eating at night, because there are more forest insect hunters at night and it is not worth his adventure.
After clicking on the light curtain of [Self-Information Generation Technique] for a while, Systrom gave up and continued to check and continued to taste the eggs in front of him.
As his level increased and his body shape became larger, Systrom felt his body became hungry, and at the same time the speed of swallowing insect eggs was significantly increased, which was doubled.
However, compared to the speed of eating, the number of eggs required to upgrade to level 5 has also become more. The number of eggs required for Sisterm’s level 3 to 4 is 6 while the number of eggs required for level 4 to 5. There are 30 eggs.
But no matter what, the hundreds of worm eggs in front of him are enough for Sisterm to successfully rise to level 5 before the night, and even if all these worm eggs are swallowed, it is not impossible for him to rise to level 6.
After the level rises to level 4, the barbs on Sistem's feet are sharper and can be easily hung upside down on the back of the leaves, making it easier to eat insect eggs.
After more than an hour, Sisterm successively ate more than a dozen fresh and delicious eggs, and his body gradually grew from 1 cm to 1.1 cm.
As long as he continues to eat a dozen more eggs, he will rise to level 5 and his physical fitness will be further improved.
But at this moment, Systrom, who was devouring insect eggs, found an unexpected guest.
Perhaps it was smelling the faint smell of broken eggs. A dark red ant appeared on the trunk of the plant where Sisterm was located, and crawled to the branch where Sisterm was located. It seemed that this ant's target was this. Eggs on a leaf.
The dark red ant is about 0.8 cm in length, which is slightly smaller than the black ant that Sisterm first saw, but the cheek teeth in the mouth are larger than those of the black ant, and the ability to bite may be stronger than those of the black ants.
Sistem immediately climbed from the back of the blade to the front, and greeted the red ant.
After observing the ant climbing up his branch from the bottom of the plant branch, Systrom immediately thought of the consequences of the arrival of the dark red worker ant.
As long as the worker ants determine the dozens of eggs here, there will be a steady stream of ants.
Facing the ant army, it is obviously not a problem to escape with his powerful hind legs, but the eggs will be handed over to the group of ants in vain.
I have tried these high-protein delicious foods and realized that these foods have grown to my body, and Systrom will never give up these worm eggs for nothing.
Although the ant colony is strong, the single ant Sisterm is not afraid, especially this small ant.
After the upgrade, Sistem is larger than this ant, and the sharpness of the chelating teeth is removed. Sistem is stronger than this ant.
And what Sisterm has to do is not a desperate fight, he just uses his strong hind limbs to kick the red ant from the branches of the plant.
The branches of this plant are hard and slender, and Systrom quickly meets the dark red ant.
Sisterm controlled the barbs on his feet and climbed to the side of the branch. The dark red ant seemed to have noticed the existence of Sisterm. It hesitated for a while, but saw that Sisterm took the initiative to get out of the way and continued. Crawling along the branches of plants along the smell of the air.
The herbivorous grasshopper larva did not cause the ants to be too alert. The ant ignored the sistem on the flanks of the branch and crawled towards the leaves with the eggs attached...
Seeing the ants crawling, Sisterm, who had found the angle, directly released his long-charged hind legs!
Between electric light flint, because he had never controlled his hind limbs to kick, the angle of Sistem's attack slightly deviated from his expectations, and only kicked the ant's forelimb.
The ant’s forelimbs almost overturned its body, but the barbs on the rest of the legs kept it on the branches, and immediately counterattacked Systrom.
Sisterm continued to charge his hindlimbs, preparing for the second kick, but the dark red ant rushed over in an instant and bit one of his forelimbs with its chelating teeth. Strong formic acid is released from teeth.
As social insects, ants attack very rough. They don’t know how to attack the enemy. They will only die after biting the opponent. If they are replaced by praying mantis or spiders, Systrom’s head or neck will definitely be Was attacked first.
The violent burning sensation on the forelegs passed into Systrom's mind, and several feet were torn ant entangled with him indiscriminately. He endured the severe pain and used his charged hind legs again. This time He successfully kicked the ant in the head!
哧
As the dark red ants fell from the branches, the turbid translucent juice splashed out of Systrom's forelimbs, and the powerful force of his hindlimbs instantly pulled his forelimbs bitten by the dark red ants. broken……
The battle between Sisterm and the dark red ant only lasted less than two seconds, and Sisterm's disability ended, but he also guarded his eggs.
He took the fight between insects too much for granted, thinking that this time his opponent would be the same as the white bug last time and let him bully him.
There is a big gap between herbivorous insects and carnivorous insects in fighting instincts.
……
Enduring the burning sensation of the broken forelimb, Sisterm climbed behind the leaf full of worm eggs again and began to eat at the fastest speed.
If ants are attracted again because of the fishy smell of these eggs, he can only choose to escape by then, so he must eat these eggs as quickly as possible.
