Outside of the hive
"Hahhh What to do now???"I said as i sit on the back of Queen,while we are both sun bathing
"I think a few day of relaxing should do"I said as I've been doing quests a lot and don't have enough time for myself
"Hmmm do you want to go with me??"i asked queen and she just nob with happiness
"hahahahaha where should we go???"I said as i thought for a while for a not so dangerous place
Huh I only remembered now,i still haven't fully explored the hive yet,I only seen the queen chamber and nothing else other than that

"Can you give me a tour of the whole place???"I asked by sunbathing queen
Hearing what I said she just stand up with enjoyment as she make a series of clicking sound with a happy tone
After that she entered the hive with me in her back,it feels good riding on her back
Entering the hive she entered a series of complicated tunnels and then we arrived in what appeared to be storage???
There's a lot of skulls here,maybe it's not a storage,instead it's where they put heads of their prays as trophy
There's a lot of beetles here,they put a weird liquids on the skulls maybe to preserve them
Once I'm done with the viewing she entered another tunnel into a very wide room full of larva,the beetles in this room feed the larva what appeared to be secretion from the tree as I can see some transparent liquid secreting from the wooden wall and the beetles collected that to feed the larvas
After that we went to another room where the the pupae are located,the room is filled by what appeared to be shredded wood,the beetles in this room are different,they are larger from the other beetles that i saw,they appeared to be the guards
After that We went to the other rooms and finally we arrived in a large room guarded by a lot of beetles,and there are a lot of them here
There's nothing in this room except a large pool of white liquid that exude a sweet scent in the air
This seems to be a special liquid,I continue observing the liquid when suddenly my skill activated
Observed success
Unknown liquid
An unknown type of liquid that will allow a creature undergo their first evolution without fail,It's also known as a catalyst in making mana crystal or for mana crystal to naturally form

'That's interesting'I though as i look at the liquid,but there seems to be a downside effect,if a creature evolve prematurely then you already know what I mean,skipping the levels mean throwing away the stat points and mutation points
'Hmmmm speaking of mutation,I still haven't opened the mutation chart'I thought as I look at the liquid before opening the chart
Mutation chart(normal beetle) Mutation points:65-80(average mutation points of normal beetle.cause their levels are different) Possible mutations Hard shell/30 points Blade horn/10 points Thorn back/5 points Far sight/10 points Sharp claw/20 points Hard skull/40 points Sticky claw/10 points Fast brain/130 points Small lesser magic core/50 points
Hmmm I will surely go with the magic core,but i have a problem and that is the pain,I need to solve it so that we won't be invaded by other hive as it's impossible that we are the only hive here
"Huhhh I think of it later"I said as I open up the mutation chart of Queen
Mutation chart(beetle queen,note that this one don't need a mate as it can reproduce just by itself) mutation points:300 points possible mutations Improved womb/30 points Blade horn/10 points Thorn back/5 points Far sight/10 points Sharp claw/20 points Hard skull/40 points Sticky claw/10 points improved brain/165 points magic core/350 points hive mind/500 points Hard exoskeleton/20 points fast reproduction/300 points ........... .......... .........
Her mutation is a bit similar to that of a normal beetle,just that it have a lot more options,too long for me to read
Huhhh i need to solve this first,i need the normal beetles to mutate first,batch by batch and then after that the queen
Why??,How do you think it will affect the whole hive if they notice what's happening to Queen and it also let me think on what to do when it's her turn
"let's go now"I said as i pat her and she just continue on her way towards the chamber and when we are at the chamber i told her to pick 300 beetles after telling her my motives and she agreed happily

Draugr Cell //Layer 01-- Investiture:
With the end of the only war to ever reach mainland Australia I found myself living out of a small room in an old military compound that had been handed over to the jurisdiction of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The end of the war, unfortunately, didn't mean the end of hostilities. The terrorism trend that had started back in the early 2000's with the attack on the world trade center over in America, had spread to just about every country on the face of the planet. Over time the constant threat from various groups meant the civilian police force was quickly undermanned, under equipped, and overwhelmed. They were simply unable to respond to the daily threats in any reasonable time frame, and in many situations lacked the both the skills and equipment required to deal with the threats to put them down in a 'safe' and expedient manner. Veterans of the war that were being reintegrated into society however, were just about everywhere, all the time. We have the training and the skills required to deal with just about any threat you care to mention, all we needed was access to the equipment to do so. In a world first, under the new Veterans program, the Australian government had taken the rather controversial step of allowing specifically selected veterans to go armed in public. Sure, with Australian weapons laws being very, very strict there were a number of hurdles to get over first, but that's where the selection part comes in. Tangentially that's actually how I met Brianna, my current partner. We work as ringers in Victory City, I thought being thrown into imptomtu combat operations and risking my life on a daily basis for barely livable wages was excitement enough. Then I met her... it... I don't know. An AI unlike anything else out there has wedged itself into my life and decided it needs to... look after me. What could possibly go wrong? **** This is the first book I have released, and my first entry into a cyberpunk universe. There is minimal drug use, a fair amount of sex, a bit of gory violence, and a sultry AI that has decided the main character needs a harem.

Raul The Reality-Reshaper
Raul Medrano had believed he was a normal human his entire life until the day he turned 21. The night before his 21st birthday he had a strange dream and acquired something dubbed a "system" that swore it would help him adjust to his status as a "higher being" and a "reality reshaper". And so began Raul's life as an immensely powerful adventurer who has and uses a variety of powers to change his world, and the grander omniverse for the better. This story features an overpowered protagonist who meets and faces off against other overpowered entities, but it begins with the protagonist in a small world where he swiftly becomes one of the big dogs so conflict, in the beginning, isn't going to be especially challenging. This story also mixes elements from my own distinct setting, the multiverse in which "A Solitary God" takes place, with elements from the settings created by people over on the NSFW CYOA (Choose your own adventure) subreddit, such as TroyxPage, and specific CYOAs such as "Goddess of Mankind" and "Love Azathoth" into one distinct, wholly original story. When relevant I'll post links to the CYOAs a chapter references in the author's notes section. Image credit: I got the image for the cover from Pixabay. This story was posted originally on ScribbleHub and will continue to be posted both there and elsewhere.
