Chapter 49: Ability Activation

Ordering Sava to watch over the ant larvae feeding on the gum, Syst led the ant larvae to an empty room.

Systmutem immediately began his examination of the ant larvae, that is, tentacle entanglement.

Perhaps because the ant larvae were completely immature, Systm examined the ant larvae with his tentacles and had the same effect as Sava.

The ant larvae have always felt like they are returning to their mother's body for Systm, and their emotions have not fluctuated in any way.

After a few minutes, Systm checked out that the ant's level was level 4, and the level cap was 14 like Shava, and it seemed that the black-brown ant should have the same level cap of 14.

And Systm also detected the sex of this ant, which should be a female ant.

Systm continued to inspect and analyze, and he once again felt the [Insect Adaptability] in the ant's bloodline and the special talent similar to [Metamorphosis Growth].

As the information differs from that of the female ant larvae and Shava, Systm discovers that the ant's [metamorphosis growth]-like power is actually [pupation] talent.

The talent [Chrysalis] is more powerful than [Metamorphosis Growth], and the degree of transformation of life is also higher.

Ant larvae, like butterfly larvae, keep feeding during the larval stage, wait until the body grows to a certain condensed into a pupa, and finally break out of the pupa and become a new life.

Heatham recalls that when he first underwent metamorphosis, he was torn off by an ant, but after the metamorphosis, his limbs were all restored.

His transformation can repair the disability of the feet and limbs, and the chrysalis of ants can repair the damage of the body.

Since grasshoppers' [Metamorphosis Growth] can also appear a third metamorphosis, then Sava can also appear a second pupation, and obtain a new body while breaking out of the pupa.

Shava is currently level 10 and is estimated to be close to reaching the conditions for the second pupa.

Maybe it's easier to use [Ability Enhancement] to improve Shava's talent [Chrysalis] than to let Shava gain the ability of [Severed Limb Regeneration], so that Shava can perform a second pupa as soon as possible.

And if Shava undergoes a second pupation, he will undoubtedly increase his strength and become his right-hand man.

……

After a brief thought, Syst didn't think much about it and continued to test the powerful digestion ability in the female ant's larvae.

Ten minutes later, Systm successfully detected the [ultra-fast digestion] (4-7/11-15) ability in the female ant's larvae.

It is still only possible to measure the approximate range of capabilities, which is not very accurate.

Systm speculated that this ability to [digest at high speed] should be something that every female ant would have.

When the female ant becomes the queen, she must ensure that she eats and digests a large amount of food in a short period of time, otherwise her body simply cannot have the conditions to lay a large number of eggs, and it is impossible for a single queen ant to breed hundreds of thousands of ants.

Through the induction of [Insect Adaptability] in his body, Systm found that although the grasshopper's body was not very suitable for the ability of [Super Speed Digestion], his [Insect Adaptability] had reached level 13, and because of the third metamorphosis, the insect bloodline was further improved, and he should be able to master this [Super Speed Digestion] ability.

The so-called insects, in the final analysis, in fact, whether grasshoppers, ants, butterflies, dragonflies, they all have the same ancestor.

Insects may seem strange, but there are not many differences in the nature of their bloodline.

It's just that some things remain on the surface to be revealed, while others are hidden in the bloodline and only reveal themselves when necessary.

Insects are small individuals, but they are able to reproduce so far, and their strength may not be strong, but there are thousands of abilities hidden in their bloodlines.

When Sistemm was first upgraded, he relied on [Insect Adaptability] to gain the ability of [Dark Vision] and [Acid Resistance], which is actually an ability inherited from the grasshopper's bloodline.

Feeling the unique rhythm of [Insect Adaptability] in his body, Systm compared the rhythm of the blood veins in the female ant's larvae, and used [Ability Enhancement] to consume experience bars and began to activate the ability in the blood veins similar to [Super Speed Digestion].

By eating and digesting the slime's gum, the experience bar of the Slime was further increased from 3% to 5%.

As the experience bar was consumed, Heatham found that his body's blood had an itchy sensation.

The tickling sensation gradually spread to his stomach, which became irregularly wriggling, and Syst could feel his stomach digest slime gum at a further rate.

Sistrem's stomach became more and more itchy, and as the experience bar was depleted, the intense itching suddenly turned into a stinging pain as the experience bar was depleted, and his stomach became more violently squirming......

It felt like the change he had when he ate the slime and [Corrosive Slime] was boosted.

Bite! You gain the derivative ability [Digestion at Speed]!

Bite! Your [Data Compilation] Talent Level Increases!

Bite! You gain the derivative ability [Insect Ability Activation]!

As the experience bar continued to deplete, the tingling sensation in Systham's stomach reached its maximum as the experience bar gradually subsided, and he finally succeeded in activating one of the digestive abilities in his body - [Super Digestion] (1/11).

Not only that, but with a unique feeling, Syst found that his understanding of the talent [Data Compilation] deepened, and his [Data Compilation] (3/5) was promoted to [Data Compilation] (4/5).

At the same time, Systm gained a new ability, [Insect Ability Activation] (3/5).

……

[Rapid Digestion] (1/11): A derivative ability obtained from [Insect Adaptability] and [Insect Ability Activation]. This ability can be activated to digest food quickly.

[Insect Ability Activation] (3/5): Systm uses [Data Compilation] to create a unique derivative ability. By consuming experience bars, you can activate unique abilities in yourself or the target's [Insect Adaptability]. The unique power of the Systham.

……

After obtaining [Super Digestion], Heatham found that his digestion speed was increased by at least half, and this was still only one level of [Super Digestion], and if the level of [Super Digestion] increased, his digestion speed would definitely be further accelerated.

The newly acquired [Insect Ability Activation] has taught Syst more and given him a deeper understanding of the various activatable abilities contained in [Insect Adaptability].

Each insect has several abilities that are best suited to them, such as grasshoppers' [Fishy Slime] and [Regeneration of Severed Limbs]; [Formic acid] and [sensitive sense of smell] in ants; Praying Mantis's [Insect Intuition] and [Camouflage].

At the same time, each insect also has some abilities that are not suitable for them, and even if this ability is obtained, the level cap will be very low and useless.

For example, a butterfly larva gains the ability to breathe underwater, but the butterfly larvae cannot forage underwater at all, so it will not use the ability to breathe underwater unless it falls into the water, and the butterfly will not use this ability once in its lifetime.

Not only that, but there is a deeper limitation hidden in [Insect Adaptability], and that is the ability conflict.

No insect can match all the abilities of [Insect Adaptability], just as [Softened Skin] cannot be obtained if you obtain [Solid Carapace]; If you have obtained [Giant Body], you will not be able to obtain [Dexterity Constitution].

The abilities in the bloodline of insects not only have these completely different ability conflicts on the surface, but also have many unexpected limitations.

For example, there is a certain conflict between [Fire Resistance] and [Color-Changing Camouflage] in Sistm's body, and if one ability level becomes higher, it will be difficult to continue to improve the other ability.

The degree of conflict between these two abilities is not very high, but some abilities are inherently on opposite sides, and as long as one is obtained, the other opposing ability cannot be activated at all.

Therefore, although Syst has the means to activate various abilities, he must carefully consider when making a choice.
