Chapter 15 Expansion of the Territory
In the tree hole, Fang Yun twisted his body a little uncomfortably, and his body kept rubbing between the tree walls.
His endurance grew, but the pain of evolution still bothered him.
The squirrel across from him looked a little uneasy when he saw his unusual condition, and wanted to come over to check on him, but was afraid.
Ten minutes later, Fang Yun's evolution was over.
"Ding, the host has successfully evolved for the 4th time, the level has been raised to level 5, and 4 points will be rewarded."
"The point value reaches 4 points, and there are currently skills that can be cultivated, do you want to check?"
On the system panel, these two messages popped up, but after Fang Yun checked the cultivable skills, he found that the current cultivable skills were still only "Deadly Venom" and "Discolored Disguise".
This disappointed him, the "Venom" skill has been upgraded to level 2, which is fully suitable for his current needs, and in addition, the "camouflage" skill is not necessary, and now the points are tight, and it is a bit wasteful to spend on this one skill.
After thinking about it, he was ready to save up his points and not add some skills for the time being.
After the next evolution, he can get another 5 points, and he wants to see if there will be new skills at that time.
"System, bring up my properties panel."
Fang Yun whispered in his heart, and a light curtain immediately appeared in his mind.
List of host properties:
Level: 5
Bioenergy: 12/250 (obtained from hunting prey, used for host evolution)
Points: 4 (rewarded by the system at the time of promotion, used to exchange for skills)
Body length: 1m
Diameter: 3.5cm
Power: 3.0
Defense: 2.0
Speed: 1.5
Dexterity: 3.0
Spirit: 3.0
Stamina: 2.8
Skill: Deadly Venom (2/5)
Fame: 0/100000000 (You are not famous in this world)
From top to bottom, Fang Yun's gaze swept over the attribute panel little by little, his body attributes were the same as the previous ones, and the increase in body length was the most obvious, this time it directly reached one meter.
The stats of each other body attribute also increased accordingly.
It's also worth noting that the next upgrade requires 250 bio-energy, which is not a small amount.
Although there are many prey in this area, it is difficult to support him to achieve such a goal.
If he wants to accomplish this goal as quickly as possible, he must expand his territory and hunt down as many large prey as possible.
Rats, lizards, and large frogs like tiger frogs.
"Squeak, squeak."
It was also at this time that a sudden voice made Fang Yun come back to his senses, and he looked at the squirrel opposite, who was staring at him suspiciously, as if he was surprised that he had suddenly grown so big.
The harmony of these two days made this squirrel trust Fang Yun even more, and staying with Fang Yun was not as nervous as a few days ago, and began to become relaxed.
Even occasionally, it would make some friendly gestures to Fang Yun, such as handing Fang Yun its treasured chestnut or pine cone for him to taste.
But swallowing plant-based foods will not increase bioenergy, and Fang Yun's teeth can't gnaw pine cones and chestnuts, swallowing it will cause indigestion problems, so he rejected the squirrel's kindness.
In the next few days, Fang Yun expanded his territory according to his previous ideas, expanding the scope of his territory by three or four times.
This process was not easy, for example, when he was exploring an area to the south, he saw a meerkat that one, if he hadn't been cautious.
And since then, that side has also been marked as a forbidden area by Fang Yun.
In addition, when he was exploring the territory, he also saw a black snake about 1.5 meters long, and almost clashed with the other party.
However, the other party seemed to have just devoured the prey, and his stomach was bulging and swollen, so he took the lead in retreating under the confrontation with Fang Yun.
In fact, with his current ability, it was not difficult to hunt down this black snake, and the opponent's mobility was greatly weakened at that time, and there was no way to avoid his attack at all.
But this black snake's body was too long, and his teeth couldn't cut off the black snake's body, so he could only watch this delicious meal slip away from him.
In the past few days, he has memorized in his mind where the game is most abundant and where there are competitors in his territory, so that he can prepare accordingly when he goes out hunting.
And through the efforts of the past few days, he has also increased his bioenergy to one hundred and twenty-three points, almost half of the task.
……
Under a camphor tree the size of a basin, Fang Yuntun was spitting out snake letters, and his eyes suddenly looked towards a certain section of the root, only to see that there was a tree hole under the exposed root.
Fang Yun crawled over and sniffed at the mouth of this tree hole, and then, he burrowed into this tree hole, and after a while, a scream of "chirping" came from this tree hole.
Then, after about a minute, Fang Yun crawled out of it with a four-legged snake in his mouth.
After swallowing this four-legged snake into his belly, Fang Yun raised his head.
The sun has begun to set in the west, and night is approaching.
Today he had a lot of gains, before preying on this four-legged snake, Fang Yun also caught an adult vole, a lizard about twenty centimeters long, and six adult frogs of ordinary size.
Counting this four-legged snake, today's prey provided him with a total of forty-seven points of bioenergy!
If it weren't for the fact that it takes about two hours to digest after each full meal, his harvest would be even greater.
"Sure enough, after expanding the territory, the predation efficiency has increased greatly compared to before."
Fang Yun exhaled lightly, and only after his size increased did he dare to expand his territory, like before, when he was only twenty or thirty centimeters, even a pheasant could kill himself.
But now, when he meets a pheasant, he can walk past him in a big way, but the pheasant will be frightened and get out of the way for him.
While thinking about it, Fang Yun crawled up on the ground and headed back towards the lair.
Night was approaching, and he was not ready to hunt any further.
Almost an hour later, Fang Yun returned to the base of the big pine tree.
Soon after he had entered the hollow, the squirrel returned to the nest, and took the hazelnuts from his cheek pouch and piled them up beside his pile of food.
Fang Yun counted them, a total of nine hazelnuts.
It seems that not only has he gained a lot today, but this squirrel has also had a big harvest.
The daily life is monotonous and repetitive, hunting, resting, and then continuing to hunt......
But Fang Yun didn't dare to slack off, although with his size, his security in this jungle had improved a lot, but it was not absolutely safe.
Natural predators such as meerkats and feral cats still pose a threat to him.
So he forced himself to keep hunting every day, and he couldn't be sloppy in the slightest, so that he could really grow up.
But this kind of life is a little depressing for Fang Yun.
Fortunately, with this squirrel, his boring and depressed life has a little condiment.
Seeing this squirrel every day when he returned to the nest, even if there was no communication between them, would make Fang Yun's mood relax.
And Fang Yun also gave this squirrel a name a few days ago.
The fur on this squirrel's body was relatively flaxen-colored, and based on this, Fang Yun gave it a name called Xiao Ma.
Originally, Fang Yun thought that his life would always be so peaceful in the future, but he didn't expect that a little accident would soon occur.
