While he was eating and absorbing, notifications kept popping up on the screen before him.

Hopper’s body, which had become empty after reaching level 9, was now filled with an endless amount of energy.

It began to flow throughout his body.

As he buried his head in the pile of meat, Hopper, who was wolfing it down, could clearly feel it.

The familiar heat was flowing through his body like a tsunami.

This was the prelude to leveling up and advancing!

[You have reached level 10. You have advanced from mature stage to complete stage.]

[You have obtained an evolution direction corresponding to your talent level. You have obtained evolution for the mythical-level monster, ‘Immortal Demon Spider’.]

[Your spider silk, spider web, legs, and claws have obtained compatible characteristics.]

[By consuming 50 strengthening points, your characteristic poison resistance has been raised to level 2.]

[By consuming 100 strengthening points, you have obtained the characteristic ‘lethal poison’.]

[By consuming 100 strengthening points, your strength, spirit, physique, and agility have been increased.]

A series of notifications popped up on the light screen in front of him.

The surging energy in Hopper’s body caused his appearance to undergo some changes.

His basketball-sized body expanded once again, and all eight of his legs turned into spear-like spikes.

From afar, it looked like a strange creature made of four giant compasses.

The dagger-like claws also grew a bit longer, and the tip was slightly bent into a hook shape.

The hair that was as hard as steel needles split apart like flowers blooming, turning into feathers that were similar to birds. The fur that was originally thick seemed to have become several times denser.

‘Is this the evolution after entering the complete form?’

After moving his gaze away from the notification on the light screen in front of him, Hopper noticed the tremendous changes that had occurred to his body.

Hopper had previously learned from the [information] item that the ranks after the complete form were basic, elite, and lord.

After the demons entered the complete form, they would obtain the corresponding evolution direction according to their talent level.

After that, they would continue to increase their level, and they would begin to evolve in the corresponding direction.

For example, when the blue-spotted frog captain had advanced beyond the ‘complete form’, he had obtained the evolution direction of a warrior.

Therefore, even though he was only one level higher than the other blue-spotted frogs, his muscular body was something that the blue-spotted frog, which was still in the ‘complete form’, could not possess.

Hopper’s evolution direction, the ‘Immortal Demon Spider’, was the same as his talent level, which was the ‘mythical-level’.

This also caused the meat that Hopper had just eaten to turn into the energy for evolution. It ultimately resulted in Hopper’s current appearance.

[Characteristics: Tenacity level 2, hard level 2, swift level 1, sharp blade level 1, echo level 2, compound eyes level 2, blood-sucking level 1, floating level 2, poison resistance level 2, lethal poison level 1.]

[Talent: Unlimited Enhancement. Mythical-level.]

“After consuming and absorbing that blue-spotted frog leader, my poison resistance has increased to level 2.”

“It seems that the poison attribute obtained from this upgrade is related to these dozen or so blue-spotted frogs.”

After opening his [information] item, Hopper noticed the poison attribute and turned to look at a notification on the screen.

“Furthermore, my spider silk, spider web, legs, and claws have all obtained compatible attributes.”

Thinking of this, Hope tried to shoot spider silk at the reeds in the distance.

Whoosh!

With a piercing sound, the spider silk accurately hit a piece of reed.

The green reed was immediately dyed a faint blue color, and then it began to turn black and gradually rot.

“Just as I thought, I can freely control the spider silk, spider web, legs, and claws to obtain some compatible characteristics.”

After trying to make the spider silk only obtain the two characteristics of ‘swift’ and ‘lethal poison’, Hopper came to this conclusion.

“Then what’s next is…”

As Hopper spoke, he turned his gaze to the spider silk that was wrapped around Venus.

According to the information that Hopper had obtained through the passive skill ‘Keen Insight’, the four stone-scaled lizards were all at the basic rank, and they were all level 12.

Venus, which was wrapped in his spider silk, was at the elite rank, and she was even level 14.

“To be able to make that level 11 rank blue-spotted frog leader bring 15 blue-spotted frogs to the stone-scaled lizards’ habitat and start a massacre, it seems like this little toy of mine has quite a few secrets…”
