Chapter 126: Pupation (Part II)

Sistemm did not hesitate, and once again chose to strengthen his fundamental talent [Numerical Code], and a power more peculiar than [Metamorphosis Growth] gradually poured into his spirit.

As Systm learns more and more about this world, Heatham becomes more and more mysterious about his talent [Numerical Code].

Like a burst of white light appearing in the spirit, Systm appeared again in the 0 and 1 digital sea, and he also turned into the ball of light in the center of the digital sea again.

The strange power from [Chrysalis] continues to strengthen this world.

There were no references around, but Heatham felt that after a few months, the orb of light he had turned into had grown, and so had the digital planets around him.

[Data Storage] and [Data Compilation] turned into two huge planets around him, and there were two moons on the planet of [Data Compilation], which were [Ability Enhancement] and [Insect Ability Activation].

The [Tools Menu], which contains all sorts of small abilities, turns into a meteorite belt, surrounding him from the farthest reaches of the galaxy.

Moving his gaze away from the galaxy, Heatham stared at the ocean of numbers.

Compared to a few months ago, when Systm metamorphosed for the third time, the digital ocean has changed a lot more, and many numbers have become tightly integrated with each other, forming large, irregular blocks like land or islands.

These irregular digital islands didn't make Systm feel too strange, because Systm's attention was all focused on a tumbling ball in the sea of numbers.

It's a tiny digital ball that can change shape slightly like gum, sometimes wriggling, sometimes bouncing in a sea of numbers.

Looking at the digital orb, Systm always felt as if he had seen such a sphere somewhere, and it was very familiar.

"Isn't this a slime?"

Systm soon discovered the reason for his familiarity with the orb, except for the difference between the gum and the number that made up the body, the little thing born from this sea of numbers was basically the same as his old friend Slime, but he didn't know if it would split as it grew.

Sistemm didn't stare at the life born in the digital sea for too long, and with the enhanced power of the [Chrysalis] talent, the entire digital sea became as if it was boiling.

A large number of numbers poured out of the sea of numbers, surging towards the ball of light formed by Sistum, and Sistemm felt that the ball of light in his body was merging with these numbers, and his spirit became dizzy.

It didn't take long for Systham to fall into a coma.

……

When Systm woke up from his coma, the reinforcement of the [Numeric Code] was complete.

Maybe it's because the enhancement effect of the [Chrysalis] talent is good enough, or maybe the enhancement effect of this step towards a magical life is extraordinary, and the [Numerical Code] (5/5) directly increases by 5 levels to reach the [Numerical Code] (10/10), and it is only one step away from reaching a new level.

The Data Storage and Data Compilation have also been improved, reaching Data Storage (8/10) and Data Compilation (7/10).

As for other derivative abilities, they have also been more or less improved.

Not only that, but in the process of Sistum's coma in the digital sea, he gained a new talent [Dataization] (9/10), as well as the derivative ability of [Dataization] [Probing and Analysis] (8/10) and [Data Template] (8/10).

The so-called talent [data] does not literally mean to digitize the body, just like playing an online game, so that the body has no weaknesses, and it is impossible to break arms and legs, and it will only lose health.

If Sistemm were to explain, he would prefer to think of the ability of Digitization as a tool in many games, displaying data on things.

However, the ability of [Digitization] is obviously more peculiar than [Identification], and it has a magical effect.

……

[Digitization] (9/10): A talent gained from [Numeric Code] and [Perception], and a unique talent of Sistem. Have the ability to explore and give things data.

[Probing and Analysis] (8/10): Derivative ability obtained by [Data]. By using the power of Sensing, the target is analyzed and its data is displayed.

[Data Template] (3/13): Derivative abilities obtained from [Numeric Code], [Dataization], [Data Compilation], and [Teleportation]. Grants the target some of the abilities of [Numeric Code].

……

The ability of [Probing and Analysis] is very close to that of [Identification], and it is easier to detect the composition of the target through [Perception] of the target, and the description of combat power in the [Tools Menu] of the Syst finally has a role, which can detect and estimate the approximate range of the target's combat power.

As for the [Data Template], it is a magical ability that can grant some of the abilities of [Numeric Code] to other targets, allowing the target to gain some small abilities in the [Tools Menu].

However, the [Data Template] ability has a lot of limitations, and each time it is granted, it costs a lot of experience points for Sistm, and if he gives too many abilities, it will also consume his lifespan.

Since Systm was still in a pupa state, he was unable to test this ability in detail.

……

After feeling the enhanced [Numerical Code], Systm continued to wait in the chrysalis bored.

His third pupalization is still a long way off......

The bored Heatham sometimes looks at the old images, and sometimes uses the [Data Compilation] ability to recompile the various abilities in the [Tools Menu].

With improved data compilation abilities to become easier to control, Systm also tried to compile a few simple mini-games to pass the time, such as Tetris, Snake, and some match-matching games.

But these games are boring, because of the ability of [Data Compilation], as long as Syst moves his mind slightly, the game will become the result he wants, as if he has installed a plug-in, and it is not challenging.

Heatham sometimes watched the old images, sometimes studied the nezumi characters, and when he felt sleepy, he fell into a deep sleep, and when he woke up, he continued to watch the film......

And so, in the darkness, Syst woke up and fell asleep, and the time recorded in the [Tools Menu] had passed imperceptibly for more than two hundred days.

In the dark, Systham felt like he had seen a lot of figures around him, including Shava, Black, Meatball, Orrah, and his other ant people.

The sleeping Heatham also felt the spiritual message from Linda, the queen of ants, who had mastered the ability of [Psychic Connection], seemed to have successfully broken out of the chrysalis, but Linda seemed to have only been there once or twice during his slumber, and never moved since.

At first, Heatham was upset, thinking that Linda the Queen was cold-minded, but after a while he gradually figured it out.

With the size of Linda, the queen ant, it is estimated that after her body grew rapidly, she could no longer reach here through this narrow passage, so she did not visit him again.

And during this time, Systm also felt a special presence, and it seemed that the shadow who assassinated the old druid was also coming.

But Systham only felt the shadow come for a few days, and then the shadow disappeared again.

……

Time passed little by little, and Sistum's chrysalis seemed to be longer than he had imagined, and seemed to be much longer than he expected to take half a year.

However, Heatham could feel that the liquid in the chrysalis was solidifying little by little, and his pupation would be completely completed one day......
