《Reincarnated as a Pillbug monster》Chapter III: Skills and Evolutions
Advertisement
Ooooh, looks like I obtained a lot of new skills. How nice...
It only cost me my scythes, my only weapon to defend myself...
Haaa, I hope they will heal up or I done for. But before that, I better start eating this guy or it will be bad...
Now, now, don't hesitate, let's go, aaaaam!!!
.....
....
...
Ok, that was surprisingly easy. I never expected this pillbugs insides to be actually tasteless.
Lucky for me.
However, the shell taste like dirt, looks like I can't eat that.
Well, no matter, I can still find use for it. Maybe I can use it like a shelter or something,
this red sun doesn't know the word mercy after all.
Anyway, let's look at my status and see how much it changed.

Title:
[Assassin:Lv1]
I am honestly surprised how little did my status changed, but I guess for killing just one enemy, this is more than plenty.
Looks like I need to kill a lot more of this bugs to actually become strong enough...
However, this one was a reckless fight. I better stop doing something similar and found a easier prey to hunt.
First, let's clean this nest and make it my temporary home.
Because there is still more meat inside this brown pillbug's shell, I can't use it as a shelter for now.
I probably should just hide inside the sand for now whenever the sun become too unbearable.
For now, I pick up all the stones in the area and make a stone wall around the brown pillbug's shell.
Not the most stable thing I have ever created, but this will do for now.
I also gathered all the eggs from the nest and put them near the one side of the wall,
while I put those strange leaves near the brown pillbug's shell.
I put them inside when it become usable.
I really grateful that the inside of the brown pill bug doesn't stink like I thought it would,

I have enough trouble getting used to the stench of that egg.
Ok, now that my temporary home is finished after much sweat and tears, I need to find more food.
I also need a few small brown pillbugs so I can store that meet inside, I don't know how long it can last on this sun.
Surprisingly, while I was working around the nest,
I didn't realize that my scythes started to slowly regenerate, like regrow again.
If this continue, they will be fully restored by the end of the day...
How convenient...
Now before I go hunting, I need to check my status again.
No matter how I look at it, it really looks like something from a game. It's really mysterious how this all works.
And while skill names give me a general idea of what they do, it isn't much to go on...
Well I need to investigate my skills as much as possible, so let's experiment a little.
[Status check: [Roll:Lv1]]
I said in my mind, let's see if anything will happen...
.....
....
...
[[Skill check] is currently unavailable]
[[Skill check] will become available at [Status check:Lv3]]
OOoooooh...
The Voice replied in her usual monotone and cold tone. Just like in the game.
The only difference is that this voice is actually not just some program, but something with an ego.
Don't even think for a second that I forgot how you screwed with me before I reincarnated...
Well anyway, looks like I can't see what each skill do, but sure it's reassuring to know that I will be able to do that soon.
Soo, if I can't see anything about my skills, what about other stuff, like my race.
Ok, let's try it out right away!
[Status check: [World Isopoda]]
[Race:World Isopoda is a simple parasitic creature that comes into existence
by feeding on magical energy that escapes from the planet.
Every other race will come from this creature, as they slowly feed on the planets magical energy and evolve.
World Isopoda can evolve as soon as it reaches Lv5 but better options will become available at higher level,
with more skills and titles.]
Eeeh, what's with this race?
Also, this confirms that this is really a newly created world, huh ?

I don't even want to imagine how long will it take for an intelligent life form to come into existence....
Haaaah, this is depressing...
[Intelligent races will start coming into existence approximately 10.000 years from now.]
Yay, thanks.... this made me a looooot happier....
Well, at least I have a goal in mind now. Become stronger and then build a time machine to travel into the future...
Guess which one of those was a joke...
Dammit, I should have chosen that [Load Old World] instead of [Create New World],
but at this point in time, its too late for regrets now...
Now, how the hell do I look at my evolution tree ?
[Current possible evolutions: [Earth Isopoda] [Nature Isopoda] [Fire Isopoda] [Water Isopoda] [Large World Isopoda]]
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Five different evolutions possible ? This looks interesting, let's see more about them.
As I just thought about that, suddenly, large quantities of information started flowing into my head....
[Earth Isopoda - Requirements: World Isopoda Lv5 - An Isopoda with large thick shell.
Because they're attribute is earth, they are mostly brown in color.
Using their high [Roll] skill, they collide with their prey at high speed to deal [Blunt Damage] with their shell.
When cornered, they bury themselves into the sand and pretend that they are a rock.]
[Nature Isopoda - Requirements: World Isopoda Lv 5 - An Isopoda that grows thick sensitive leaves on their shell.
They use those leaves for photosynthesis to feed themselves.
Because they lack any useful attack skills, Nature Isopoda specialise in [Digging] and [Roll] skills to escape from their enemy.]
[Fire Isopoda - Requirements: World Isopoda Lv 7 - An Isopoda with two giant horns near their head,
they use them to crush their enemy. Because of a special glands in their throat, they can also breathe fire.
Because they only specialise in attack skills, they lack any defence skills, making them vulnerable against fast opponents.]
[Water Isopoda - Requirements: World Isopoda Lv 7 - An Isopoda that usually lives in the water.
They use their long and flexible tail to swim with high speed, usually using "hit and run" tactics to defeat their enemy.]
[Large World Isopoda - Requirements: World Isopoda Lv 10 - Large World Isopoda is twice the size of a normal one,
however, there aren't any other differences. They can evolve into a "Large" variant of the previous possible evolutions.]
Hmmmm... Let's see.
Earth Isopoda is definitely a defence type race, but as I had a misfortune to fight one, I know that they're defence is flawed...
There is no way I'm gonna choose the Nature one, they sound hilariously weak.
Well, at least now I know what I'm going to hunt for dinner.
This Fire one is really tempting, but unfortunately they have too many flaws that could put me at a disadvantage.
Throwing the "large" version out of the window, that would only make me a bigger and more clumsier target.
This only leaves the Water Isopoda.
Because I'm also planning to use that "hit and run" tactic when I will go hunting, this seems like a perfect choice.
However, there is only one small problem...
There isn't a single drop of water nearby !!!
I have already see a few of them rolling around at high speed,
but I guess they just evolved into one without realising that we are in a fucking desert !!!
....
...
..
.
Haaaaaa, this is useless. I better concentrate myself on leveling myself and my skills,
at least until new and better evolutions become available.
Heey, are there any other evolutions possible, other than those five ?
[There are two more possible evolutions at a higher level.]
[There are also countless "mutations" possible]
Eh ? Mutations, what is that ?
[Mutations are the same as evolution,
but they only become available after certain skills and titles are acquired,
fulfilling a certain condition.]
I see, I see, so this is where skills and titles come into play. Interesting.
So if I level them up and acquire new ones, new evolutions or should I said mutations will become available.
Good, good, with my temporary home set, now it's time to...
Finally sleep...
This was quite a chaotic first day of my new life and I really need some rest...
And my scythes still needs a little bit more time to fully heal.
Sooo... then tomorrow, It's time to go hunting...
