Reign Of Worm

Chapter 12

The path to get stronger seems pretty interesting right? Yeah not really. I do love the feel of worming my way through dirt to get as much life matter as I can, of course, but it"s been several hours and I"ve only gained four life matter. I mean, I also gained two levels, which I didn"t know I could do by digging, but still. I guess it"s safe to say I won"t get any more from this level. But d.a.m.n it feels so good! I never thought dirt would be something I would enjoy, but being able to feel the nutrients around you, and just the overall lively feel of this soil invigorates me in the deepest recesses of my mind.

Dirt aside, over the past hours I haven"t been lazing around. My first goal upon seeing the ma.s.s of tunnels that this second level possesses was to make a little room for myself. Of course, this seems simple at first, but I had to find a suitable tunnel to deposit the dirt and that wasn"t all that fun or easy. Then Came the hour of shaping the room, and it looks like the inside of a fat pancake. Sounds tasty, and it looks pretty okay. Now we get to upgrade! I have 32 whole f.u.c.king bioma.s.s! We loaded dude!

Alright, max out Heat sensing glands, digestive system, mouth, setae, and body. My muscles will be the only cla.s.sified body part left out, but I hope I can upgrade them soon as well. I"ll just farm some weaker monsters soon.

[Five level limits reached. Please select evolutions.]

Here comes the hard part. Even just looking at these lists always gives me a headache. Let"s see, first I"ll evolve heat-sensing glands to expanded heat-sensing glands. This"ll allow me to see more clearly and even farther than before! I still have to get used to Omni-vision though.

Digestive system isn"t too hard, I"ll go from the normal one to the efficient digestive system. It seems so normal compared to the others but its only function is to get more bioma.s.s per monster. Well, and to allow me to control the speed of digestion. That helps too.

Mouth will become toothed mouth. Toothed mouth allows me to grind up enemies and chunks of dirt with teeth that line the edge of my mouth. They"re long and sharp, perfect for any use!

Setae is a little hard. Since I only use my bristles to move, unlike a normal worm that uses them for sense as well, I"m pretty spoiled for choice here. I guess I"ll go for strengthened setae because that upgrade allows me to move way faster with a better grip.

Finally, the body. This one is uber tricky since there are so many options. Should I go for hardened body? Flexible body? Sticky body? Definitely not the last one, it doesn"t fit my future plans. Hmm. Silicon-based body? I remember in my previous life we were never able to find one of theseā€¦ That settles it! Let"s go with silicon-based body!

The advantages of this are obviously a vastly stronger body, but I lose the ability to easily carry oxygen in and out of it. On second thought, let"s not do silicon-based body. Instead, I"ll choose hyper carbon-based body! There will be some advantages for this later, I believe, but the most noted one now is a more breathable, more versatile body through tighter packs of carbon atoms. I obviously don"t know all that much about this, but I hope I explained it well enough.


Alright system, I"ve locked in my choices. Hit me.

[Confirm evolutions?]

I said it already. Just hit me already you piece of s.h.i.t. You"re so useless Jeremy!

[.]

ACK!

Mother of the good lord almighty Jeremy what have you done to me! I take it back, I don"t really think you"re a piece of s.h.i.t, it was all a joke, yes a joke!

---

Wow! A whole hour of intense wriggling and I"m finally done with that h.e.l.l. Haha f.u.c.k you Jeremy, I made it through you stupid system!

[...]

Okay, okay, enough with my stupid antics. Let"s check out my new self! Oh. d.a.m.n. I feel overpowered right now.

I can feel my expanded heat-sensing glands flowing throughout my worm self, and don"t get me started on my new vision. Everything within what I estimate is five hundred meters can be clearly seen by me. Five. Hundred. Meters! I can even see monstersā€¦ ew no that"s disgusting. Thank Jeremy I can limit my sense a little. Actually when I think about five hundred meters may be a little taxing in long periods. Further testing is required. Ooh, look! I have teeth! A whole lot of them! Like 80 teeth! I can make a monster smoothie with that many teeth! Hot d.a.m.n!
