C34 – The Eve

[devil monster: Sickle Insect (Insect Girl Clan Branch)]

Level: 1 / 5

[HP: 30 / 30]

[Strength: 2.0, spirit: 1.2, magic: 0, agility: 2.6, Vitality: 2.4]

Compared to before, the Strength had increased by 0. 4, spirit by 0.2, agility by 0.1, and vitality by 0.4.

Although the increase was not by much, if it applied to every individual, it would be quite a significant increase.

They had already defeated two teams from the Hound Clan at different times. They were worried that they would be mad with revenge against them. Lo Ya did not dare let her guard down. She immediately took the moment and filled her mouth with fresh dog meat.

The outcome of the future, whether good or bad was not as important as having enough food.

Awoo ~

[evolution points + 12]

[evolution points + 9]



[Obtained a chance to draw cards.]

She had not seen a card for a long time, so she did not think too much about it and just selected!

Congratulations, you have reached 2-star (N). Trap Activation Card : Sticky net.]

[Sticky net (Level 2 trap)] A highly adhesive mesh when deployed in an area, extends to a radius of 30 meters, binding all creatures that comes in contact with it. This trap can last for 5 minutes.]

“Another trap? That’s a good stuff.”

There was no better option, only the most suitable one.

When they would eventually battle with the Hound Clan, the effects of leaves balls and traps would definitely come as a surprise.

In the past, Lo Ya did not have much strength, so she could barely throw the leaf ball to a safe distance. But now it was different, she much stronger. With a wave of her hand, she could send the grenades about thirty to forty meters away. This distance was quite comparable with what some adult humans could throw.

If the Little Insect Girls were reliable, she could have even let them use some of them in combat.

However…

“So unreliable.”

Lo Ya felt that she was miserable. Why did there have to be a freak or in idiot in such a race with boundless potential?

If Leaf Balls were given to these little fellows, they would probably stupidly throw it into Insect Girl’s team and then… one could only imagine what a beautiful scene it would create.

“But I think I understand the rules of the card flipping.”

The more a card stayed permanent, the higher the star rating. The effect of a 1-star card usually fazed off within 10 seconds, while a 2-star card lasted a bit longer, the rank was also slightly higher.

Sometimes, a 1-star card could also be used to open treasures. Like with the previous attack enhancement. Although it was for a one-time use, its life-saving ability at a critical moment far exceeded a 2-star trap’s value. After all, the former could still be used even after one’s strength had increased to a very high level.

Insect Girls and the Sickle Insects ate their kind in front of the last hound captive. It realized that those tiny fellows were actually on the same side with the Goblins.

“It’s obvious that the team who left earlier and didn’t return were also killed by these monsters.”

Soon enough, it watched young Sickle Insects grow before its very eyes. In a short span of two days, 60 little insects had already matured. They began to run in groups in the forest, constantly hunting wild beasts.

Little Insect Girl almost ate while lying down. Most of the time, she was lazily sunbathing on the ground. The rest of the time, she used some of the preys the Sickle Insects brought back alive to train and improve her experience.

Globlins felt that they were no longer important.

The Insect Girl Clan were a bunch of unreasonable fellows. Reproducing in a few days was not so uncommon, but the rate at which they mutated and evolved was a little too much.

No matter how hard the Goblins tried, it was impossible for them to achieve this.

“They are bugs.”

Of course, they had no idea that Lo Ya was about to make Insect Girls more like bugs.

The main thing was that there were more and more evolution points and it was enough to activate the next evolution.

Because there were no suitable components, Lo Ya decided to only strengthen the mysterious route.

The next option on the Ability Tree was already on display.

[Spirit Enhancement: Reevaluate the individual strength based on general standards. Every Insect Girl received a one-thousandth of the individual spirit bonus (calculated at 1,000 points max). Editor Consumption: 5000 evolution points.]

A skill that increased magic capacity. The so-called universal standard was the level system measured by Steel, bronze, and Silver.

The data levels in Lo Ya’s eyes were actually her own unique way of measuring. Most other creatures in this world did not have such a detailed classification. Especially humans, they only categorized their strength into several stages of the major levels.

Black Iron Stage: One’s physical strength is enhanced to a certain level and are able to grasp a certain level of technique. When Lo Ya’s attributes reached 10 points, she was basically on the same level with a Lower Black Iron Level warrior.

Bronze Stage: [The physical strength exceeded the Black Iron Level’s, the reaction speed is fast, and the martial skill level is outstanding.] Lo Ya did not understand the lowest entry requirement requirement of this level because she was yet to achieve it.

Silver Stage: one would be able to produce powerful combat skills physically, there is a fundamental difference from bronze in all aspects. Insufficient information to fully understand.

The later stages were also unclear, and could only be found out after being attained.

Hence, Lo Ya’s only option was to withdraw from the editor.

So her strength did not increase.

But it did not matter. In the future, when the number of Sickle Insects exceeded a thousand, Insect Girl’s spirit would be strengthened, even though it would be a long process.

The hunting operation against the Hound Clan continued.



Two days later, 20 kilometers away, at the Basecamp of the Hound Clan.

“Chief, there are unknown creatures in the nearby areas, and they have attacked hunting teams that went out to hunt. Should we act now?”

“Do you know the nature of the target creature?”

The chief looked at the hound that had come to report and put down his work.

“I don’t really have an idea. They seem to be some type of dangerous Insects. If not that they showed up near the camp, we probably wouldn’t have known about their existence.”

” You have no idea? ” There was a trace of interrogation in the chief’s tone. “Are you trying to say that those teams that met with them didn’t ascertain their strength?”

“This… The teams that were attacked didn’t make it back. But the hounds that had seen the target all thought that they were just a group of ordinary Insects, and directly sent out an assault crew to eliminate them.”

“…”

After a moment of silence, the chief personally left the kennel and went to the lush outdoor area.

Many hunting dogs patrolled the surroundings. They occasionally discussed the recent events that had happened in the forest, but their expressions did not show much unease.

“Inform the leaders of the big packs to prepare to annihilate the giant Insects outside the camp and show them what we are capable of.”

“Understood” The hound immediately shouted after receiving the orders.

As he observed the warriors who were getting ready, the patriarch narrowed his eyes and thought, “This territory belongs to the Hound Clan, no one can do whatever they like here.”

One large unit was equivalent to a few small teams. Even if they encountered any danger this time, they could cover each other and quickly retreat to their camp to report.

This was what was going through his mind.
