The World Serpent
Chapter 12: Level Hunt
The Daybreak Began, It was Early in the Morning as the Orange Sun rose from the Horizon. All of the Creatures from the Skies, Land, And Ocean woke up. The Sun's Light shone brightly, covering most of the World. The Blue Sky revealed itself with the RIsing Sun. The Fog that covered mountains slowly dims. Fluffy Thick Clouds passed through the Blue Sky.
Within the Forest was a Small Emerald Green Snake observing the Whole Forest. The Snake was holding onto a branch of a Small Tree. It tried to find its prey by Observing the Whole Forest from the Top. It looked around the entire, and a group of creatures snatched the Snake's attention. It looked in the direction of the Creatures.
The Creatures that manage to snatch its attention was Tiny. The Creatures had the Same Size as the Snake. Observing the Tiny Creatures from afar. The Snake had its serious eyes and cold expression plastered on its snake face. The Tiny Group of Creatures the Snake was observing looked like Frogs. It was a Group of Frogs the Snake could easily swallow. But the Snake was cautious as it was observing the frogs before hunting them.
'Hmm... Perfect Prey for me, but observing them from afar is still the best move.' Persia thought to herself while staring at the frogs in the distance. She could easily reach the frogs with her current speed. The Frogs that she observed were also the kind of Frog she recently ate before being hunted by a Predator.
'I wonder if becoming wild is faster than being cautious...' Persia was thinking about the future implications of her actions. There was a good way to become stronger, and it was to put the Monstrosity inside her in control of her body. She could throw everything about being a human and start a massacre in the forest. But it would be illogical to start such a reckless plan without knowing anything.
'I wonder what would happen if frogs disappeared in this forest? Something interesting would happen, or nothing would happen, and life would continue.' Persia didn't know what she was thinking, but she was clearly bored from holding onto a branch and observing the forest.
'I guess that many creatures eat frogs. The Moment they disappear. The Foodchain would break itself apart, and many other creatures would die off. The Ecosystem is too fragile...' Persia shook her head. Anyway, Persia's Cautious Nature was making everything overcomplicated for her. Persia wanted to increase her Brain Processing Power. But the only way to do that was to increased her Intelligence and Wisdom. She currently had no plan on wasting points.
'This is just a small part of the frog's species, so I guess I could eat much as I like.' Persia thought to herself and agreed on hunting the Frogs. They were the only small creatures near her, So Persia had no choice but to eat them. She also needed to adapt to this forest. She must be merciless and selfish for her own good. It was the only way to survive in the forest full of pure freedom.
Persia stopped holding onto the Branch and climb down the Tree. Although Persia's current length was half a meter, It was still small compared to other creatures. She would probably need to evolve from Baby to Adult to eat Larger Creatures. She slithered down the Tree and arrived at the bottom surrounded by grass.
Arriving at the bottom of the Tree. Persia continued to Slither towards the patch of Grass to cover herself. She already activated her Camouflage which explains her current Color. Traversing through the Grass. Persia headed towards the Group of Frogs. Her Speed got faster and faster as many seconds passed.
Her Current Speed Attribute was 40. It was a lot, and she was probably faster than before. She slithered to the Grass and avoided the things that covered her path. It was the result of her Agility and Coordination. She could easily traverse through a maze or dodge incoming objects while maintaining her speed.
She slithered quietly in the uneven ground of the forest while maintaining her speed. She was hiding her body with the grass as it was one of her attacking styles. She was like a ninja using the shadows to cover her body, Although she used the grass to cover her Emerald Green Body.
While slithering on the Forest, Persia's snake tongue flicked multiple times to gather scents from the surroundings. She concluded that there weren't any creatures near, but she may be wrong. Persia knew that her senses weren't almighty, and it was full of flaws. She even planned to increase the rank of her tracking abilities.
'It seems that I need to increase my Sense and my Tracking Skills.' Persia thought to herself while traversing the forest at high speed. She was a Fast, Little Snake that can easily change direction while maintaining her full speed. Even if a Predator chases her, She would be unpredictable when moving.
'It seems that I am near my targets. Let's maintain the speed and ambush them.' Persia thought to herself while slithering through the Grass. She was slowly getting nearer to her targets. She would quickly kill them and eat them whole. It was her simple attack style.
Persia's Attack Style relied on instant attack and instant swallow. She didn't have any constriction as she was weak and small. She also didn't have any venoms in her fangs. She was planning to have some, but that would be for later. For now, Persia had to increase her Attributes to a New Level.
Persia literally observable, but she was hiding within the Grass. She was like a Grass waving due to the winds. But Persia was still observable that a Human would easily see the difference. She was, after all, the only Grass waving that intensely in the area. Persia got nearer to the Group of Frogs, and she was like a Charging Bull with no intention to stop.
Behind the Group of Frogs. Persia charged through the Grass and arrived in front of the Frogs. The Frogs couldn't obviously react at the current speed of Persia. But she had this one skill that could help her process at a much faster speed. A thought passed through Persia's mind when she arrived behind the group of frogs.
'Activate... Accelerated Thought Process.'
With these words, Persia's world began to slow down. The Conversion was 2 seconds every 1 second. It was not that much, but it was perfect for reacting to fast situations like this. She Thought Process within Persia got faster, and the world became slow motion. She could see each of the Frog's expressions at the same time.
Persia slithered through the frogs and began her attack against them. She knew it was overkill, but she tested how she could use each skill to perform an attack. She arrived at the first target, which was the nearest frog. She opened her mouth wide and took a bite at the frog. Persia swallowed the Frog whole and turned her head towards the remaining ones.
The remaining three frogs began jumping out of the area, but Persia was still faster than them. She opened her mouth and attacked the second frog within the group. She took a bite and swallowed the second frog whole like the other frogs. Only 5 seconds have passed by Persia already ate two frogs.
The Two remaining frogs jump in different directions. Persia slithered towards the third Frog that jumped to the right. The Frog was unlucky to be chosen, but the Frog was also lucky for not being the last one. She opened her mouth wide and ate the Frog whole. The Third Frog got eaten, and the last remaining Frog was escaping.
The Last Frog hopped towards the bushes, but unfortunately for the Frog. Persia was too fast to get outrun. Persia opened her mouth wide and took a bite at the Last Frog. She used her mouth and bitten the Frog. It almost exploded due to her strong Bite, but it was still not enough. Persia seeing the results shook her head in disappointment. She swallowed the Frog, and she achieved total victory.
After achieving total victory, Persia's body was heavier as she recently ate Four Frogs in quick succession. After eating the frogs, Persia slithered towards the bush to rest. She deactivated the Accelerated Thought Process. She was satisfied with the results of her fight.
'I'm quite fast, A lot faster than before. The Accelerated Though Process made the whole I see in slow motion. It was a strange feeling to be observing the world in a slow state.' Persia thought to herself. She was somewhat surprised by the results of the fight. She always conserved most of her stamina as she didn't want to lose her stamina, and she was also paranoid about losing her stamina during an escape.
'My Max Speed is 40km/h, Quite Slow, but I could maintain such speed while turning my body. Instead of losing speed, I might even gain more speed due to momentum.' Persia was quite fast. Although not the fastest in the forest. She was the fastest within the weaker spectrum of the forest. She may even outrun the predator that chased her last night.
'I feel like a Ninja that has no limbs.' Persia thought to herself. She wanted to be a ninja and jump on trees while running, but she was far from being a human. Maybe sooner or later, She might gain a human body in her adventures. But for now... She needed to adapt to her new snake body.
With the results of her fight. Persia had gotten confident, although she didn't want her ego to take it literally. She was still cautious, but the moment she confirms her ability against an opponent. She might as well have fun while fighting her opponent. It was a weird mentality but a useful one within the forest.
She slithered out of the bush as she planned on returning to the Burrow. She was currently planning on having a slumber like always. Persia also needed to go back to her Burrow. After all, Moving with a Full Stomach was not a good thing. Was this true in snakes? She was an irregular snake, after all, so she might be different.
As Persia slithered in the forest while heading back to her home, Her Seismic Tracking kept detecting Creatures around her. But Persia wasn't worried about that, as the Creatures were not specifically heading towards her. While thinking about the creatures, A thought appeared within her mind.
'I want to eat all of them...' Persia had a strange thought in her mind. She wanted to grow to eat all of them. She was Greedy and a Glutton. She didn't want other predators to eat all of them. She shook her head and calmed herself down. Persia was unsure what was happening within her.
'I'm really changing... This is for my own good.' Persia tried to reaffirm herself that it was for her survival. A Savage and Sadistic Persia was rising within Persia. She didn't know how to handle such a Persona, but she would accept it as a part of her. She hoped that her Persona would help her instead of jeopardizing her life. Only the Future would tell...
Persia continued slithering towards the Burrow until she noticed something strange. She didn't know if she was unfortunate, but it seems that another predator has her in its sight. Persia didn't feel creeping out from her heart. She looked around the area as the Sun shone its bright light towards the forest.
She looked upwards toward the Blue Sky. She found many Fluffy Thick Clouds and saw many birds flying above her. She flicked her tongue multiple times and quickly noticed the strange and nostalgic scent. Persia curled up her body and quickly moved away from her Original Spot. A Creature dived down towards her original spot, and it seems that the creature was trying to ambush her.
'A Bird? I see it is you. Long Time No See... First Predator.' Persia had a smirk expression plastered on her snake face. She looked at her current predator that failed to ambush her. It had its long and sharp Talons piercing the ground. It turned its head and stared right at Persia's Cold Eyes.
'Mr. Eagle, Do you want to play a Game of Tags?' The Eagle that was hunting Persia released a Sharp High-Pitch Cry towards her. She didn't know if it understood her, but it was a signal for the game to start. Persia began her escape away from the Predator. The Eagle flew up to the sky and chased her.
A Game of Tags started between a Fast Snake and an Eagle.
