”Sure enough, after this evolution, my body length directly reached 1.5 meters.”
After checking his size growth, Fang Yun let out a sigh of relief. In fact, even before the evolution, he has already guessed how much he will grow.
The result is exactly the same as he expected.
In addition to his body length, another aspect that Fang Yun cares about is his diameter. After this evolution, his diameter has reached 3.6 cm.
Now, he can probably swallow creatures with more than 10 cm in diameter.
Fang Yun also looked at his other properties, which has pretty good growth.
”But… this time I have to accumulate 1000 bio-energy point to undergo my 6 evolution.”
Although the growth of most of his various properties made him happy, the growth of one particular property made him depressed, which is obviously the required bio-energy for evolution.
He has some doubts about whether the prey in his territory is enough for him to undergo his next evolution.
However, Fang Yun quickly cheered up. After all, this isn’t something he can change, and can only accept it honestly.
After honestly accepting his fate, he looked over the rest of his properties, eventually, his gaze fell on the “Skill points” column. His accumulated points have reached six points. except for the skill “skin resistance”, he has two other skills to upgrade
Either, he can upgrade the skill “quick digestion” one time, or he can upgrade h the skill “Fatal Venom” two times.
However, he is somewhat uncertain which one to upgrade, which one does he need the most right now?
After contemplating for a while, He finally chose the skill “quick digestion”
With his current size, the opponents he faces aren’t that big, his Venom toxicity should suffice for now.
“Squeak?”
Suddenly, a questioning cry broke Fang Yun train of thoughts, pulling him back to reality.
Looking at the direction from which the sound came from, he couldn’t help but smile, the squirrel came back, currently, the latter is staring at him with suspicion, seemingly doubting his size increase.
However, it looks like he hasn’t forgotten his previous size increase, because after staring at him for a while, he didn’t care anymore, returning to his resting corner and taking his own harvest from his cheek pouch.
Fang Yun coiled his body, now he can only do so in order to stay in this tree hole, after all, if he doesn’t do so, he will make it difficult for xiao ma to do his own thing.
Furthermore, as a snake, he doesn’t have any discomfort with coiling his body, so e doesn’t mind doing that to help xiao ma.
Time flies, seven days as passed.
There was another rainfall five days ago, but it only lasted for three days before the sun rose again, but Fang Yun felt that weather isn’t as hot as before.
”The weather is cooling down.”
After some observation, Fang Yun came to this conclusion. At the same time, he also found that many deciduous trees are shedding their leaves.
He guessed that it’s time to change seasons.
After coming to this conclusion, Fang Yun couldn’t help but worry. As a snake, if the temperature drops, his body function will also drop.
When the temperature falls to a certain level, he will have to hibernate, or more specifically brumate, which is the process in which cold-blooded animals slow down their metabolism to an extreme level.
More importantly, snakes don’t just simply find someplace to hibernate in.
Instead, they chose a dry place, then dozens of snakes gather together to hibernate together, because once a snake chose to hibernate by itself, then the likelihood of its survival is close to none.
And even snakes that gather together to hibernate are in danger as well.
If the place they chose to hibernate in is discovered by even animals as small as mice, then there is a big chance that they will be eaten by them as a snack, don’t just think that mice don’t eat meat, they are omnivores, that means they meat as well.
Therefore, in order to guarantee his own safety, Fang Yun must not fall in hibernation.
……………
Hidden in a dense bush, a gray snake is closely watching a creature not far away, with its head slightly raised, motionless like a scripture.
The creature that the snake is watching is a big bird, but it has a long gorgeous tail and beautiful feathers.
This “Big Bird” is obviously a Pheasant.
“Ring, Target locked, Pheasant, Bird, Phasianinae, can provide 80 bio-energy.”
While Fang Yun was staring at this pheasant, the system mechanical voice sounded in his mind.
This time, the prey that Fang Yun is preparing to hunt is this pheasant.
Now that he thinks about it, when he was only 20 cm he once met a pheasant like this in the mountains, at that time he could only hide between dead leaves and prey that the pheasant doesn’t find him.
However, now it’s him who is going to prey on this pheasant.
The pheasant on the opposite side was leisurely looking for food on the ground, not knowing that his death is near.
As Fang Yun is hiding in the bushes, the pheasant is getting closer and closer.
When the distance between them reached only half a meter, Fang Yun tightened his muscles, then attacked!!, bitting the pheasant neck in the blink of an eye.
The pheasant neck is covered with thick hair, making it difficult to inject venom in its bloodstream.
However, Fang Yun did not intend to poison this pheasant in the first place.
While bitting the pheasant neck, he wrapped his body around its body and the constricted.
In an instant, this pheasant was dropped into the ground by Fang Yun.
”Coo! coo!”
This pheasant struggled, making a sharp scream, but in dozens of seconds, it couldn’t do so anymore.
Under the constriction of Fang Yun, it could not inhale, causing it to be unable to make noises anymore.
Finally, the pheasant stopped moving, dead.
Unwrapping his body, Fang Yun started swallowing the pheasant from its head.
After swallowing the pheasant, Fang Yun body swelled by more than four times, making people wonder whether he would burst.
However, Fang Yun did not have such a worry. He crawled between the bushes, finding a hidden corner, he chose to rest there.
Less than half an hour later, he completely digested the pheasant.
After upgrading the skill “quick digestion”, his digestive ability has indeed grown a lot.
“Ring, the host successfully gained 80 bio-energy.”
When he heard the mechanical sound of the system, Fang Yun who was staring blankly at the air, snapped back to reality.
“With these 80 points, my total bio-energy has reached a total of 320 points.”
Crawling between the bushes, he couldn’t help but think about how much bio-energy he has accumulated.
These days of crazy hunting, caused the prey in this area to nearly disappear. While searching for prey today, he didn’t find any small animal like frogs or mice.
Fortunately, he found this pheasant, granting him 80 bio-energy point.
”I have to widen my hunting range further.”
Fang Yun Thought while looking at the forest around him.
As Fang Yun crawled further and further, the forest is becoming sparser and sparser.
