Crazy evolution bug

Chapter 22 The Butterfly Larva's Follower

……

Activable skill [Infrared Perception]: Obtained through the talent [Evolution].Mosquitoes usually use this skill to find blood-sucking targets.By activating this skill you can sense abnormal heat nearby.

……

Although no useful skills were [evolved] by eating dead leaf mantises and jungle scorpions overnight, the [infrared perception] obtained by eating a mosquito is obviously more useful to Wang Xiaoyu.

For him who is weak, this skill can at least allow him to evade enemies that he cannot resist, such as omnivorous monster goblins or other large creatures, or rodents that are very common in the jungle-rats.

Not only that, this skill is very useful even if Wang Xiaoyu grows up. [Infrared Perception] can be said to be the nemesis of assassin professions that rely on [Stealth] and [Invisibility]. strong.

However, this skill also has some flaws. Although [Infrared Sensing] can be continuously activated like his [Green Camouflage], Wang Xiaoyu's compound eyes will feel very weak as long as this skill is activated for a long time, so this skill cannot be activated by Wang Xiaoyu at any time state.

……

The sky was slightly bright, and although the corpses of the dead leaf mantis and the forest scorpion had been eaten overnight, there were still more than half of them left, and the easiest to eat meat remained the most.

This is because Wang Xiaoyu didn't eat much easy-to-eat meat at all, and what he worked hard to eat was the carapace of the scorpion.

The skill Wang Xiaoyu most wants to acquire is [Carapace Armor]. After all, his biggest shortcoming now is that the skin on his body is too soft.

However, unlike the ladybug that Wang Xiaoyu met before, the carapace of the scorpion was too hard for him. Wang Xiaoyu also tried [strengthening the fangs] to chew and eat the carapace of the scorpion, but in reality Wang Xiaoyu couldn’t bite it at all. move the carapace of the scorpion.

There is no other way, Wang Xiaoyu can only use stones to smash the scorpion's carapace into small pieces and swallow it up forcefully, but the efficiency is still too low, so Wang Xiaoyu didn't eat many scorpion carapaces overnight. As a result, more than half of the insect corpses remained.

The hard and sharp mouthparts of similar praying mantises, as well as the sturdy sickle Wang Xiaoyu, were also unable to bite.As for the poisonous gland next to the poisonous needle at the tail of the scorpion, Wang Xiaoyu can bite it, but the risk factor of eating the poisonous gland is too high. Wang Xiaoyu doesn't think his talent [adaptability] can allow him to survive the severe poison.

This is also the fundamental reason why Wang Xiaoyu did not [evolve] skills overnight. The powerful skill parts possessed by scorpions and praying mantises are either unable to bite or dare not be eaten by Wang Xiaoyu.

……

Glancing at the remaining two insect corpses, Wang Xiaoyu sighed in his heart, it was time to leave here, although Wang Xiaoyu was also a little bit reluctant to let go of the remaining insect corpses, but now there is not so much time for him to eat .

Because now……

puff!
【Jet Silk Thread】Activate!
Wang Xiaoyu twisted his body and poked out the insect head, another mouthful of sticky silk thread spewed out, and through the cracks of the dead leaves, a black ant stuck to the spider web and struggling was completely stuck.

Monster: Big Black Ant (Ant)
Rating: 6
Combat power: negligible
Most bug predators have already started to rest after the night, but some bugs are just waking up to start a new day's activities, such as ants.

Possessing super restrictive abilities [Jet Silk Thread] and [Stick Silk Thread] and human wisdom, Wang Xiaoyu can basically be said to be at the top of the bug world, but Wang Xiaoyu knows that there are two kinds of bugs that he can't afford to mess with at present, Ant Legion is one of them.

Wang Xiaoyu also wanted to continue to eat up the remaining scorpions, but it was a pity because the 5th black ant that was stuck had already arrived in the morning...

Click!

Wang Xiaoyu crawled out from under the dead leaves again, and then bit the big black ant that wanted to use [Insect Language] to call its companions in half with its fangs...

Wang Xiaoyu knew that he could no longer procrastinate, because the frequency of the arrival of big black ants was getting higher and higher. These big black ants were probably attracted by the smell of mantis and scorpion corpses, and it was very likely that they would continue to eat the remaining corpses. You will be surrounded by these ants, and if you really want to leave at that time, it will be difficult.

Wang Xiaoyu quickly started preparations before leaving, and tied the scorpion tail needle cut off with stones to the top of his head with silk thread. Although this poisonous needle Wang Xiaoyu could not inject venom into the prey like a scorpion, there was still some toxicity left on it. , can also be regarded as a simple weapon that can improve some of his self-protection capabilities.

Continue to tie the mouthparts of the praying mantis and the two strong sickles to the body with silk thread. Unlike the tail needles of the scorpion, Wang Xiaoyu does not intend to use them as weapons, but to find a way to grind them up and eat them in his spare time. These two things should be It is the most powerful part of the praying mantis.

……

After eating one side of the triangular spider web and recycling it, the thread in Wang Xiaoyu's silk sac has been filled again, and Wang Xiaoyu also decided to leave here...

But Wang Xiaoyu had one more thing to do before he left. He used his fangs to remove the dead leaves covering the red-headed cricket's body, and then melted the silk threads stuck to the red-headed cricket's body with his saliva.

"Okay, you are free..." Wang Xiaoyu said to the red-headed cricket.

Unlike Wang Xiaoyu's expectation that the red-headed cricket would run away quickly, the red-headed cricket did not run away, but quickly rushed into the dead leaves...

"Delicious!" The red-headed cricket chirped with joy.

Wang Xiaoyu was slightly dazed, only to realize that the praying mantis meat he put on the dead leaves for the red-headed cricket had been eaten up last night. Thinking of the cricket's previous trembling and restlessness and its joyful eating now, it is like two different insects .

"It's really a simple-minded bug..." Wang Xiaoyu shook his bug brain and said softly.

"Red-headed cricket, leave after eating for a while, this place is very dangerous..." Wang Xiaoyu loudly reminded the red-headed cricket eating in the dead leaves with [Insect Language], and then walked outside without looking back. As for this cricket I don't plan to worry about whether I can understand Wang Xiaoyu.

……

Wang Xiaoyu recalled the route he traveled during the day yesterday, and decided to go to that place to wait. Wang Xiaoyu predicted that the mortal-level monster would be born in the evening or earlier.

This is also one of the few mortal-level monsters that Wang Xiaoyu can defeat - slime.

The fully grown slime Wang Xiaoyu is naturally no match, because as long as he is submerged by a bounce hit by the opponent, his insect body will be digested by the slime full of digestive juices in a short time.

But for the slime who was just born with the size of a fist, Wang Xiaoyu felt that it was still possible for him to defeat him.

The place Wang Xiaoyu decided to go to was a foul-smelling silt pile. The unique conditions made the silt piled up a simple slime lair. Wang Xiaoyu saw the lump that was as big as a human thumb yesterday during the day. Shrinking green gum.

Wang Xiaoyu didn't find any information about the jelly through the [Exploration Technique] yesterday, he knew it was because this slime hadn't been born in the true sense.

Wang Xiaoyu's trip was precisely to wait for that slime to be born, and then kill it at its weakest...

……

……

Not long after Wang Xiaoyu climbed out, the sound of jumping sounded from behind Wang Xiaoyu. It seemed that the red-headed cricket obeyed his words and left from the dead leaves.

It's just that it didn't take long for Wang Xiaoyu to realize something was wrong, because the red-headed cricket seemed to be following him.

Wang Xiaoyu turned his head and looked back, he found that the red-headed cricket was shaking its head as if it was also looking at him.

"I am a delicious cricket, come and eat me!" The red-headed cricket chirped happily.

Wang Xiaoyu was stunned for a while, did this red-headed cricket live enough...

"Meat! Delicious! More!"

"I'm a delicious cricket!"

The red-headed cricket chirped again, and Wang Xiaoyu understood why the red-headed cricket said what he just said after being stunned.

"Do you want to continue to be my bait and exchange food with me?"

"Bait! Bait! Bait!"

Wang Xiaoyu shook the worm's head lightly. Praying mantis meat is indeed the best food Wang Xiaoyu has eaten in such a long time, but is this red-headed cricket's obsession with food more important than its own life being threatened?
I didn't think much about it, because having a bait would be of great help to Wang Xiaoyu's hunting anyway, and having such a bait could save him a lot of trouble.

"Well, just follow me, I will give you a little bit of prey every time, but you'd better keep quiet when you follow me, your voice is too loud and it will easily cause unnecessary danger."

"I am a delicious cricket, come on..."

The red-headed cricket's joyful chirping sound reappeared, but this time before it even half chirped, the red-headed cricket's wings were stuck by the silk thread sprayed out by Wang Xiaoyu.

"I told you to keep quiet, you simple-minded bug..."
