Chapter 209
“Well, that was easy.”@@@@
Li Muyang, having easily defeated the winged moth, controlled the emerald blade mantis to wander among the grass leaves, attacking the insects and mosquitoes he saw in his field of vision.
Every creature killed and devoured allowed the emerald blade mantis to gain evolution points.
However, devouring the same species multiple times yielded fewer and fewer evolution points.
The higher the difficulty of the target defeated, the more evolution points gained.
Li Muyang controlled the emerald blade mantis to roam the forest, quickly getting the hang of the game mode.
And the emerald blade mantis had accumulated enough points for its first evolution, beginning to evolve.
As Li Muyang selected the evolve button, the emerald blade mantis in his field of vision suddenly began to dig into the ground, burrowing into a small hole it had dug.
Then, strands of light wrapped around the mantis’s body like fine threads, eventually forming a small cocoon that enveloped the Emerald Blade Mantis.
【Evolving...】
【1%...】
【5%...】
【7%...】
Watching the emerald blade mantis cocooning to evolve, Li Muyang began to wait.
“I just don’t know if it will change species after evolving.”
This process is exactly the same as the trashy web games from his previous life.
The only difference is that the graphics of this interesting mini game provided by the system are extremely realistic, almost indistinguishable from a real jungle.
As the Emerald Blade Mantis finished evolving, the cocoon underground was completely absorbed by the mantis, and the emerged Emerald Blade Mantis had doubled in size.
The mantis, which was originally only five centimeters long, was now longer than an adult’s palm.
Upon proportional enlargement, its previously frail and slender body suddenly seemed somewhat intimidating.
“This game has pretty solid positive feedback.”
Even the beginner’s level mystery of Loushan City wasn’t as simple as this interesting mini game.
Almost without thinking or any real gameplay, just by controlling the Emerald Blade Mantis to rush forward, slash, kill, and devour, it could evolve and level up.
Li Muyang, chuckling, made the Emerald Blade Mantis leap up and head towards a distant devouring target.
It was a young mountain rat, not very big, but to the original Emerald Blade Mantis, it was an intimidating giant not to be trifled with.
Yet now, the mantis, doubled in size, was actually fighting with the young mountain rat.
Although it didn’t manage to kill and devour it, the sharp blade-like arms of the mantis left several shallow cuts on the mountain rat.
“Just one evolution and it’s this powerful. The future looks promising.”
“Died so casually...”
But it wasn’t surprising.
The Emerald Blade Mantis, though evolved once, was still weak and could only capture small animals in the forest.
To think that such a fragile mantis could take on a troop of Blood Lotus Sect soldiers was like using an egg trying to break a stone.
Looking at the failure notification in his field of vision, Li Muyang returned to the main game interface, ready to load a saved game and start over.
But at the moment of loading the game, he suddenly thought of something.
So, Li Muyang exited the loading screen and re-entered the game.
The familiar character selection interface was there, with three different animals waiting for Li Muyang’s choice.
This time, Li Muyang directly selected the 【Lord of Mount Wu】, the tiger with the lowest evolutionary potential but also the strongest.
As Li Muyang selected the tiger, the scene in his field of vision quickly changed to a third-person perspective inside a cave.
Continuous rain pattered outside the cave in the mountain forest, and the burly tiger lay beside the cave, indifferently watching everything in the forest. Its regal presence as the king of beasts chills to the bone.
Li Muyang controlled the tiger to rise, ready to attack and devour other animals in the forest.
But just as he entered the game, he found that the option for a random time-limited level had popped up again in his field of vision.
【A random time-limited level has opened–Enter?】
【Yes/No】
Seeing the time-limited level pop up immediately, Li Muyang’s heart skipped a beat.
“I still don’t get it... Is this task to attack the Blood Lotus Sect’s convoy happening in real-time?”
At that moment, he guessed the nature of this time-limited level.
He chose 【Yes】 without hesitation.
Then, the game interface in his field of vision changed, and the tiger appeared on that dark official road lit by torches.
Faced with the sudden appearance of the big tiger, the Blood Lotus Sect soldiers could no longer ignore it, reacting violently.
“A tiger! It’s a tiger!”
“A white-foreheaded tiger!”
The Blood Lotus Sect soldiers panicked the moment they saw the blocking tiger.
And Li Muyang, controlling the tiger, charged forward.
A few leaps, and he had killed all the mortal soldiers, with blood blossoming on the official road.
The grain and supplies they were escorting now belonged to Li Muyang.
