From Ant to Abyssal Demon - Chapter 6
Chapter 6: Skill Fragments and Evolution Points!
The sunshine was bright.
A gentle breeze brought a refreshing coolness, causing the grass to sway and cast dappled shadows on the ground.
On the fifth day of being reborn as an ant, Su Bai crawled out of his nest, which was his lifeline.
Perhaps the ants in the game world were stronger than those in the real world. Su Bai’s nest was not dug into the ground but located on a low cliff.
The exit, half a meter above the ground, ensured that even in heavy rain, the nest would not be flooded.
After leaving the ant nest, Su Bai didn’t rush to leave but instead crawled along the route of the worker ants.
He smelled two distinct odors along the way.
These two smells represented “summoning” and “battle.”
In the ant colony, the appearance of these two smells could mean either encountering enemies or the discovery of prey by the worker ants, summoning other ants to kill or drag it back to the nest.
Regardless of the situation, for Su Bai, it meant his first battle in this world!
Feeling slightly excited, Su Bai followed these two smells.
Just a dozen meters away, he found the battlefield.
On the open ground, a worm over ten centimeters long was struggling desperately, surrounded by hundreds of black ants.
A single ant’s damage to the worm was negligible, but with hundreds of ants together, they could wear down and eventually kill the worm, turning it into food reserves for the nest.
Upon reaching the battlefield, Su Bai immediately joined the fight.
If it were other insects, he might hesitate, but facing a worm, a pure meat shield type of insect, was equivalent to receiving a gift of gene points and evolution points!
Compared to ants, worms had stronger strength and constitution, and accordingly, their defensive capabilities were stronger.
Ordinary ants struggled to bite, and it took a long time for their tiny mandibles to open a small wound on the worm. Su Bai’s four-dimensional attributes far exceeded the limits of the ant species.
Coupled with his passive skill, Enhanced Mandibles, he could tear off a piece of flesh from the worm with just one bite!
As the injured worm writhed violently, Su Bai saw new prompts as he had hoped.
[Eating… Gained 3 experience points…]
[Eating… Gained 2 experience points…]
[Ding! You consumed the flesh and blood of the worm and gained 1 point of worm genes.]
One point of worm genes wasn’t much better than green worm genes, but it was a good start.
Encouraged, Su Bai’s sharp mandibles moved faster, tearing small pieces of flesh from the worm’s body, devouring them.
[Eating… Gained 4 experience points…]
[Ding! You consumed the flesh and blood of the worm and gained 1 point of worm genes.]
[Ding! You consumed the flesh and blood of the worm and obtained a skill fragment!]
“Skill fragment?” Su Bai’s movement paused slightly, then he quickly opened his attribute panel.
On his second attribute panel, a new line of data appeared.
【Gene Points】: Green Worm Gene 3 points, Worm Gene 2 points.
【Evolution Points】: 0 points.
【Skill Fragments】: Healing 1/10.
When his gaze stopped at the third line, some information naturally appeared in Su Bai’s mind.
[Passive Skill, Healing: Minor reduction in bleeding and severe injury effects, slight increase in wound healing speed. When food is abundant, you can slowly repair your injuries by eating.]
Clearly, this was an extremely powerful passive skill!
As an ant, Su Bai couldn’t drink healing potions, find healers, or even have healing skills. Once injured, he might be beyond saving.
The appearance of the passive skill Healing undoubtedly greatly improved his survivability!
The only regret was that this was just a skill fragment, not a complete skill. To master the Healing skill, he still needed to obtain nine identical skill fragments.
For a moment, Su Bai looked at the worm with fervent eyes.
His actions of biting and tearing at the worm’s flesh quickened.
—
With the talent of Devour Evolution, Su Bai’s appetite was terrifying.
The flesh and blood he consumed were transformed into experience points, gene points, or skill fragments by the Devour Evolution talent, allowing him to easily swallow food several times his body size.
Even so, it took Su Bai more than ten minutes to completely devour the worm.
With the disappearance of the enemy (food), the worker ants waved their antennae in confusion, scattered, and continued to search for new food, while Su Bai joyfully opened his attribute panel.
The first attribute panel remained unchanged.
Devouring a worm did not raise his rank or four-dimensional attributes again.
But the second attribute panel began to enrich.
【Gene Points】: Green Worm Gene 3 points, Worm Gene 5 points.
【Evolution Points】: 1 point.
【Skill Fragments】: Healing 3/10.
A live worm provided Su Bai with 5 points of worm genes, three fragments of the Healing skill, and 1 evolution point.
The Healing skill still needed seven more fragments to be complete, which meant he needed to devour at least four more worms.
As for evolution points…
Participating in the hunting and killing of a worm provided Su Bai with 1 evolution point.
With 5 evolution points, he could begin his first evolution!
