Chapter 63: Strange Frost Fluctuations
"I don't know if you're lucky or not."
Systm used his tentacles to wrap around Shava's pupae, and he quickly detected that Shava's level was level 11, not the normal level of 12 for the second pupation.
Perhaps because of the gradually cold weather and the threat of survival, Shava entered the second pupal ahead of schedule.
But it is clear that Shava's second pupalization was not entirely successful.
Using his tentacles to further entangle the pupa formed by Shava, Syst carefully felt the [Pupa] talent in Shava's body, and began to consume the experience points in his body to strengthen Shava's [Pupa" talent.
Systham didn't know if it would have an effect, but if he didn't do anything, there was a 90% chance that Shava would die as a result.
97%…… 93%…… 87%…… 71%……
Sistm's experience bar continued to decline, but Shava's condition did not change much, and Shava's spirit did not sober up, and there was only a hazy response to Sistm's spiritual messages.
However, when Systham's experience bar dropped to around 50%, Shava's body finally changed, and her frozen and white juice began to melt......
It seems that because of the frost energy that comes with the experience transmitted by Systm, Shava's body has also absorbed and mastered this frost power.
The body of an insect in its [Chrysalis] state is extremely prone to mutation, and Shava may have obtained the blood of Frost like Systm, becoming a creature with frost powers.
As experience continued to infuse, Systm noticed that the white juice of the sawa chrysalis nick began to wriggle like his [corrosive slime], and it wasn't long before the chrysalis began to slowly quiver.
The white juice inside the pupa is constantly tumbling, filling the gaps on the surface of the pupae.
It didn't take long for this part of the white juice to begin to solidify, gradually turning black-brown to completely block the gap, and the surface of some rough pupae became smooth.
The pupa formed by Sava is like an inflatable inflate, and it begins to swell and contract continuously, and the deformed pupa gradually becomes a normal oval shape, and finally remains constant at 10 cm in size, and the heartbeat inside the pupa gradually stabilizes.
When Systm finally had 30% of his experience remaining, the chrysalis had leveled off, and it seemed that Shava had survived.
However, Shava's spirit still did not recover, and he still responded vaguely to Sisttham's spiritual message as before.
……
Placing the two surviving pupae with Shava's, Systm began to process the numerous ants that had died in their makeshift nest.
If it was an ordinary ant Sistem, he could eat it without hesitation, or keep it as a food reserve, but these ant people he raised single-handedly, he couldn't do the same thing after all.
Systm carried the ant carcasses and gathered them in the same empty room.
Finally looking at the ant people inside, Heatham destroyed the dirt at the junction between the empty chamber and the main passageway, and buried the empty chamber in the depths of the makeshift nest forever.
Both grasshoppers and ants are successful in reproducing in this world, and although they do not have strong individual strength, their excellent reproduction ability allows them to adapt to a variety of environments.
Even if they are preyed upon without hesitation, even if they are wiped out by natural disasters and magical powers, insects will struggle to survive.
But no one will look at the weak bugs, and the bugs' death will not be remembered by anyone, not even themselves.
Syst seemed to let out a sigh, he didn't want himself, Shava, and the two remaining ants to live like this.
Maybe he could......
Sistemm shook the head of the worm, not thinking any further, he used his tentacles to tamp the loose dirt in the place, and went to an empty room where food was stored and began to eat.
In fact, among the many foods he ate, Systham's favorite was the flesh of some arthropods, which was also the most helpful to his body.
However, in this icy and snowy world, it is already difficult for him to eat it again in the future.
Heatham remembered the huge lake, and maybe some crabs and shrimp would have survived under the ice......
After feeding until his abdomen gradually swelled, the Sith came to the empty chamber where he had placed the three pupae, and in the company of the three pupae, he gradually went into a dormant state.
After a long day of continuous travel, digging through the snow with his tentacles, and strengthening Shava's [Chrysalis] talent, Systm was already very tired, both mentally and physically......
……
……
Sistem's sleep lasted for a long time, for more than a dozen hours, and when he looked at the [Tools Menu], it was already noon the next day.
Systm shook the tentacles above his head and moved the many tentacles of his body.
Perhaps it was because of the long hours he slept, or perhaps it was because he felt good about returning to this makeshift lair, and after more than a dozen hours of deep sleep, Systham felt very comfortable after resting.
In the dormant state, the tentacles on Systham's body have grown rapidly, and there are already 5 tentacles that have grown to a length of 30 cm, and the newly generated 3 tentacles have also grown to a length of 5 cm.
Heatham found that after more than a dozen hours of rest, wing buds had regrown on his back, and had grown to a third of his wings, and it was estimated that his wings would fully recover after a few more days.
……
In the process of moving his body, Syst felt the special frost fluctuations that came from time to time in the distance.
If it weren't for the fluctuation that caused his body's weak reaction, Heatham might have slept longer.
This strange Frost Fluctuation is somewhat similar to the Grasshopper Queen's fluctuation when she summoned grasshoppers, but the target of the summoning is replaced by a creature with frost power.
Sisstem's [intuition] didn't convey a sense of unease, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with following the wave to respond to the call.
But Heatham didn't take it lightly, after all, the old druid's experience had only been long.
After some consideration, Systm activated his [Frost Form], and that strange blue circle of light appeared above his head.
When it comes to knowing more about the power of Frost, Nellis undoubtedly knows more than he does.
However, when Syst asked Nellis, Nellis did not give him a clear answer.
According to Nellis, most of these summoning fluctuations are not dangerous, but they may also be a means used by some Ice and Snow Creatures to attract other Ice Creatures in order to increase their strength or repair their body damage.
Systham nodded when he heard Nellis's description, it seems that the so-called ice and snow world is not much different from the ordinary natural world, it is also full of dangers, full of many unknown dangers.
He felt the wings growing behind him, and if his wings were finished, perhaps he would be able to observe from afar in the clouds what was causing this frost fluctuation.
However, Systm quickly thought of the culprit who had led him to become the Tentacle Monster - the Lord of the Glaciers.
In this world of countless supernatural powers, even a distant gaze is not necessarily safe.
……
Shaking his head helplessly, Heatham lifted the [Frost Form], and then used his tentacles to check the three surviving pupae.
The spirit of the soldier Sava seemed to have fallen into a deeper slumber for more than a dozen hours, and Systm was now receiving no response to his spiritual messages.
However, Systham had a vague premonition that when Shava woke up from her slumber this time, she would burst out of her chrysalis and regain her previous senses.
As for the remaining female and worker pupae, both ants will develop affection for him when Sistum's tentacles touch the pupae.
But in addition to the intimate emotion, the two ants also convey some cold feelings.
It seems that even the ability of [Cold Resistance] has a certain limit.
Today's weather is still too cold, and it is estimated that even the butterflies and insect pupae that can overwinter cannot withstand this severe cold.
Sistemm didn't think too much about it, he stretched out more tentacles to entangle the two pupae, and decided to strengthen the abilities of the two pupa [cold resistance].
Perhaps after continuous strengthening, these two ants can move freely even in the ice and snow......
