Chapter 125: Pupation (Part II)

Sitting quietly in the empty chamber eighty meters underground, Heatham shook his head.

There was still a lot to worry about, and Syst decided not to think about it and strengthened the already stored experience bar to his [Chrysalis] talent.

Through these days of strengthening, Sistum's [Chrysalis] talent has reached 99% of level 16, and Sistemm only used very little experience, and the [Chrysalis] talent has naturally reached level 17, which can be transformed for the third time.

Instead of waiting quietly, Systm began to devour the food around him, and Heatham's abdomen swelled rapidly.

After more than ten minutes, Heatham's bulging abdomen had some cracks and some blood was leaking out due to food, and Heatham began to repair the cracked abdomen with [Super Speed Regeneration], and stopped eating at the same time.

Experience Bar 99%, Satiety 120%, Mental Power 98%, Life Force 99%, Special Energy 98%......

The stats of Sistum's body have basically reached the peak state, and it can be said that it is the most perfect time to pupate.

It didn't take long for a unique rhythm from the blood to appear.

Heatham knew that his chrysalis was about to begin.

Similar to the itching sensation on his body during [Metamorphosis], Systham's body became very itchy, and the exoskeleton of his body gradually became softer.

However, unlike the last time his body twitched like confusion when he first pupated, Systm was still able to control his body very well at this time, whether it was tentacles or body, chest and abdomen, he could control it with his will.

Soon, following the rhythm of his veins, Systm retracted his tentacles back into his body, and the glands in his throat [Plague Slime] secreted a unique active slime.

The active slime gradually covered his whole body according to Systm's will, and his eyes and antennae were quickly melted by the slime, and he lost his senses of sight, hearing, and smell.

The active mucus gradually hardened and formed a pupa due to the wriggling of the mucus, and Heatham's flesh was completely softened and gradually transformed into liquid.

Systm waited quietly, waiting for the unique fluctuations from the bloodline in the process of [Metamorphosis Growth] or [Chrysalis] to allow him to strengthen an ability, and Heatham still planned to strengthen the [Numerical Code] this time.

But after waiting for a long time, that unique fluctuation didn't come.

"The third pupal transformation is very long, maybe it will take a long time."

Heatham thought to himself, and at the same time opened the [Tools Menu] and bored watching the old video materials to pass the time.

But he didn't make Sistemm wait long before Sistum's spirit felt dizzy, and he felt like the whole world was spinning.

Again, Systham felt like he was drunk and drunk.

He felt himself turn into a spiral nest of slime again, and the nearly half-meter-tall chrysalis formed by Systm spun like a spinning top.

This time, the rotation force was far greater than the power of Sistum's first pupation, and the pupa kept spinning in the empty room, because of the irregularity of the soil in the empty room, the pupa turned into by Sistemm flew up and down in the empty room, and the impact sound was continuous......

If it weren't for the sturdy shell of the chrysalis that Systm had turned into, he might have died.

The spinning chrysalis continued for more than ten hours before stopping, and Syst fell unconscious.

Naturally, the unconscious Sixt didn't know that the reason why the chrysalis had been spinning for so long was because he had eaten too much.

It's not that it's bad to eat more, it's that after pupae, Sistum's body will be converted into liquid, so these incompletely digested foods must be fully digested and converted into energy in Sistm's body.

But in any case, this pupation of Systham, even if he didn't eat so much, he would still enter a coma.

……

In a coma, Systham seemed to have a dream, a dream that was all too real.

In his dreams, he seems to have transformed into a familiar and unfamiliar green-tailed grasshopper, usually eating grass leaves, occasionally eating rotten fruits falling from trees, and has escaped death countless times at the hands of insects and birds.

Eventually, the dream ended with him mating with a beautiful female green-tailed grasshopper, and at the end of the dream his chelica twitched slightly, as if to say something.

"Grasshoppers can't speak even if they open their mouths, they think about it day and dream at night, is it because I lost the ability to mate that I had this dream?"

Systham realizes that he is dreaming, but soon he reappears in a new dream, still the dream of a blue-tailed grasshopper.

In the dream, he seems to have turned into a female blue-tailed grasshopper, and before she was born, all her grasshopper eggs and siblings had been eaten by a small mouse, and only she was lucky enough to survive.

Her luck doesn't stop, praying mantis, spiders, scorpions......

She suffered more than a dozen fatal crises, but she narrowly escaped from them, and eventually she turned into an adult grasshopper and chose the strongest of the three male blue-tailed grasshoppers to mate.

This time, the dream ended completely after she laid eggs, and she was also at the last moment of the dream, the chelica in her mouth trembled slightly, and she seemed to say something.

Without waiting for Sistemm to think between dreams, the next dream came along.

This time, he was still a green-tailed grasshopper, and she was still a female, and this time she had a smooth ride from hatching eggs, without any hostile creatures, because her body was very graceful, attracting dozens of male green-tailed grasshoppers, and she finally chose the most beautiful male blue-tailed grasshopper to mate.

But just before laying eggs, her luck seemed to be at an end, when a sudden tingling pain appeared, and her body was clamped by the feet of a spotted mantis, and her head began to be gnawed by the mantis.

But before she died, two grasshopper eggs flowed out of her abdomen, and the chelica on her head trembled slightly, as if she had said something before she died.

Dreams one after another.

This time Systm turned into a male blue-tailed grasshopper with a congenital deficiency, and no other grasshopper sister was born with him.

Perhaps because the eggs were released too early, Heatham was born so fragile that he could not bite even the tenderest leaf buds, and could only survive by sucking on microorganisms from a mud pit.

Eventually, he found some grasshopper eggs of the same kind, which grew up by eating his body, and could feed on plants to sustain life.

But even so, it is difficult to change his congenitally deficient body, and after several near-deaths, he only has half the body size of an ordinary blue-tailed grasshopper adult after becoming an adult grasshopper.

However, he still found a mate before he died, a female grasshopper who was also congenitally deficient, and he still said something before the dream ended.

……

In this way, one dream after another, Systm went through many, many dreams like a marquee, and experienced many strange grasshopper lives.

He even once turned into a grasshopper egg buried in the snow and ice, and it took more than 100,000 days and nights before it hatched from the egg after the ice and snow melted.

It has also experienced many times when grasshoppers have taken off in groups and become one of the tens of thousands of locust swarms.

Sistemm gradually understood that these dreams were nothing else, but the experiences of his grasshopper ancestors, and that each of his grasshopper ancestors was extremely lucky to survive, and he was the superimposed existence of these countless lucks.

Systham knew that grasshoppers could not transmit so many and such detailed dreams in their bloodlines.

These dreams should be simulated by his wisdom grasshopper according to his bloodline, and they cannot be said to be fake, but ordinary grasshoppers will not have such dreams.

The grasshopper ancestors in the dream seemed to want to convey something to him.

Heatham felt it carefully......

At this moment, countless voices suddenly appeared in Systham's mind-

"Live." , "Live... Go down. "Stay alive!" ”、“…… Stay alive. "Live. ”……

At the end of each dream, the words spoken by the grasshopper became clear, and each word contained anticipation and blessings, and these dense sounds made Sistum's spirit seem to be buzzing, and Sistum's spirit was extremely shocked.

Systm snapped out of his slumber.

“…… Thank you. ”

Systm also didn't know how long he had been asleep during the chrysalis process, and even the [Tools Menu] didn't show the time.

But if he doesn't wake up, maybe he won't wake up again, and he will become a dead chrysalis completely.

After all, although he has the talent of [Pupa] and has performed a brief pupation before, his bloodline still does not fully match the [Pupalization] talent, and this third pupation is also very dangerous.

If it weren't for the serial dreams given to him by the grasshopper bloodline, maybe he wouldn't have had a chance to wake up at all.

According to the rhythm in the veins, Syst controls the gentle rotation of the fluid in the pupae.

As if taking a deep breath, Heatham's body suddenly changed from a depressed state to a refreshed state, and his body became extremely relaxed.

It didn't take long for the unique rhythm from the bloodline to finally appear.
