19.23% White Snake / Chapter 9: Variation

Chapter 9: Variation

10 hours later.

[Digestion complete]

[Ancient bloodline(white crystal) = level 1(27%)]

"Why is this ancient bloodline thing, so hard to level up? I only need 1 kill to reach level 2 with experience but this one. Sigh!!"

[But you can swallow the kill of other to get ancient bloodline, while you need to kill yourself for leveling up, it is completely balanced. So, stop protesting you lazy bum.]

"Wow!! You got new one huh."

He looked toward the bird, it was still unconscious. Green vapor was circulating with the process of going in and out.

He had been continuously watching it, for 10 hours, and it had never opened his eye. He thought it was better to attack it while it was still unconscious. But he didn't know attacking it would really kill it with a single hit or not. He needed information from Mia.

"Mia, it seems to be unconscious from the beginning. Can I finish it?"

[It is not unconscious but in hibernation to reduce the flow of poison in its body. If you tried attacking it, then it will terminate its hibernation process and attack you. So wait for the time limit.]

He was feeling bored waiting for it, to get fully poisoned. But since he was in the new world and have no information about this world. He would just follow Mia until he could make a decision on his own.

2 hours later…

He saw feather of bird have decreased, due to corrosion of poison and its head, had almost touched the ground having no power to support it.

Zynx moved towards it, keeping his head high and swaggering its body. When there was only a distance of 10 m between them, bird realized someone was here, it opened its eyes drowsily.

Bird saw little snake walking proudly towards him, which looked funny instead of domineering, due to its little size. He understood, it must be here for him, but he didn't feel afraid instead he felt relief.

He was withstanding poison, for more than 12 hours and was feeling pain, which was almost impossible for other. He had already thought about dying instead of withstanding such a pain, but his body paralyzed after 3 hours due to poison, so he could not kill himself after that. If someone was trying to fulfill his last wish, then why not, even if he tried to resist it he could not, as his whole body was already paralyzed.

If Zynx had known about this bird being paralyzed, for more than 9 hours, then he would have cursed his system, for not providing the correct information. Since he didn't know, he had waited for an extra 2 hours, as 10 hours was required for digestion.

While walking toward this bird, Zynx asked.

"Mia, are you sure it won't attack right?"

Mia had already told him, he had 100% chance of defeating it, but he wanted to confirm it.

[Yes, internal organ of any monster having vitality 4 or less will be dissolved in this poison, within 8 hours, if they don't have any poison resistance abilities. We have been waiting for an extra 4 hours so it is fine.]

Zynx became happy, as his system makes so much calculation so that he would not have to get hurt.

Then, he realized, what would have happened, if it had died in that extra 4 hours, then his waiting would have been for nothing. He thought of scolding Mia for its mistake, but he realized bird might die before he could get his last hit.

He moved toward it, with full speed, and used poison shot, so he could at least get some experience, for support, if there is one.

He waited for a moment and found bird not resisting, just staying there like a statue. Zynx does not understand why, but since he is having a chance of attacking, why would he rejected it.

He then used poison shot, one after another. As it was just a stationary target, it was easy to hit, without chance of missing and could also be considered training this skill.

Bird expected to die with a single attack of this snake, relieving him from this pain, but this motherfucker!!, was using poison instead of attacking him directly, increasing his pain even more. He asked God,

'Even though I have done some bad thing, should not the torture be enough since I have been withstanding for more than 12 hours, why do you have to add fuel to the fire?'

He then finally died, feeling wronged, after half an hour of that extra torture. But Zynx had not realized it, as Mia had not notified him, since he was focusing, on upgrading his skill.

After another 15 min, He was feeling tired due to continuous used of poison shot. It was not only physical tiredness but also mental tiredness since he had to be focused in order to not miss the target.

"Mia, is it not dead yet?"

[No, you need 4 more shot to kill it as it has low poison resistance.]

Mia lied to him because if he knew, the bird has already been dead and the system had not notified him, then he would know, that system could lie, and his belief on the system would decrease. Also, she had not completely deceived him, as this bird really had poison resistance ability. Since she had told him both truth and lie, it should be balanced, right?

---------------------------------------------------------------------

He stops using his poison shot after this notification pop up.

He continuously stared at it for a moment anticipating for light like before, but he didn't see any light.

"Mia, does information parchment only appear in special cases?"

[No, it is compulsory in every being.]

"Then why there is no light releasing from its body?"

[Unlike before, It has its eye closed, so light cannot be released. If you crack its skull then you may find it there or choose the path through its eye like before to take out the parchment.]

He moved toward him, made a hole in its eye, as it was hard for the snake, to crack the skull. He then took out the parchment from its head.

[Congratulation for finding 'Bloody eagle parchment']

[Do you want to consume?]

"Yes"

---------------------------------------------------------

Bloody eagle (10%)

Race: Eagle (Variation)

Name: ??

Attributes: ??

Skill:??

-----------------------------------------------------------

[You need to collect 10 more parchments to view its certain stats]

Stats of this bloody eagle, was no different from the bronze earthworm, except it had a variation on its Race.

"Mia, does creature with variation is always powerful than other?"

[It depends on whether the variation is suitable for it or not. For example, if the fish body contains wings like a butterfly then it is useless, neither it can use it on water nor it can fly outside the water.]

[But in the case of this eagle, its variation gave him the power to control blood inside him, reducing the time taken by poison to reach in its whole body through blood, by slowing down the blood flow.]

"Does variation need to happen in birth or can also be happened after birth?"

[How can you be so stupid!! Have you ever focus on your book, at least once in your life?]

He replied proudly.

"Of course"

[When?]

"While making cheat?"


Chapter 10: Indestructible metallic door?

He replied proudly.

"Of course, while making cheat?"

She became dumbfounded.

{Sigh!! I can never have a sensible conversation with him.}

She then decided, to just answered him directly.

[There is 2 cause of variation that I know

1. DNA fails to copy accurately

2. External influences.]

He then glanced at death body of the bloody eagle, its size was bigger than the earthworm, he consumed before. So, he could not store this body inside his void stomach in a single piece, even after increasing its size up to 3-meter cubes.

It was safe in here, so he planned on consuming it, but due to its huge size, he could not. He then became aware of the poison corroding its feather little by little.

"Mia, is it possible to poison only the part of the body?"

His poison moved around as if it had its own consciousness. If he could control it to attack, at the single point, then he could corrode that point swiftly.

[If you can focus on it then maybe you can. You can try.]

Since Mia also agreed with it, he released the poison, through his fang on the dead body.

His poison directly got inside the bloody eagle, following the beforehand pattern, getting inside and flowing all over the internal organ of its, but this was not what he wanted.

He again used his poison shot, the same thing happen.

He had already used poison shot, for more than 5 times, but he could not control it.

Zynx didn't admit defeat, because admitting defeat, would cause him to lose this dead body, so he persisted on controlling his poison.

After 7th shot, He could control a flow of poison, to only attack on the single part like a leg, arm, torso, and head. It was still not enough, but he at least had some progress on it, motivating him.

In a 10th shot, he could control the poison more accurately.

Finally, in a 15th shot, he could target the single point, as he had wished. He became overjoyed.

He considered, 'Since I can progress with a bit of my concentration, why not practice it even more, while I am at it.'

Zynx only had 3 active skills. If little practice, could increase his battle power, then why not.

So, he continued using his poison shot. At 40th time, he finally made even greater progress.

[Congratulation for transforming your 'poison shot' into 'Absolute poison shot']

[Absolute poison shot: You can transform the shape of your poison into solid, liquid and gas, as you wish.]

"Bwah-hah-hah!!! Finally, great me evolve my first skill."

He determined to practice, even more, to increase his skill even more, but he saw something making him discard his previous idea.

The dead body of bloody eagle had started to change its color, almost all of its feather had completely dissolved. He didn't want to play with his food anymore and made a decision to finish it.

He used his absolute poison shot for the first time after evolving, changing the shape of poison into the sword without a handle, sending it on the neck of a bloody eagle. Poison sword hit the neck and started corroding it.

[Time taken for corroding = 5 min]

Since his poison was not powerful enough, it needed 5 min to separate the head from the body. He decided to stack even more poison on it.

Zynx used another absolute poison shot on its neck.

[Time taken for corroding = 4 min 30 sec.]

He repeatedly used his skill on it, after 9th shot, head separated from the body.

By using a similar way, he divided the body of the bloody eagle into 6 parts, head, torso, 2 feathers, and 2 legs.

He then stores all the body parts of a bloody eagle, inside his void stomach except single leg.

He then further use his skill on the leg, dividing it into 12 equal pieces.

Mia didn't understand, what he is doing. So, she inquired.

[What are you doing?]

"I don't want to be immobile while digesting like before, wasting my time."

He replied haughtily, for being able to think this idea.

She understood, but in order to reduce his haughtiness.

[Why didn't you follow this process while consuming Bronze earthworm?]

"Because I have nothing to do at that time as I have to wait, and I am learning from my experience, stupid system."

Looks like, it backfired upon herself.

He then swallowed 1 of the separated piece and stored remaining 11 pieces in his void stomach.

[Time for digestion – 5 min]

He nodded and moved toward the center. He found out that his plan was really working as he didn't find it hard to move around.

Traveling onward, he realized much more amount of poison being attracted by his body, due to a large amount of poison in the surrounding.

4 hours later, he found a circular tunnel with a height of 70 cm, poison was being emitted from inside it. He became overjoyed to be able to find the source of poison in a short time. It had only been less than 18 hours since he entered this poisonous fog.

He reached outside of cave and decided to enter inside it. He stopped as he heard notification from Mia.

[Digestion complete]

[Ancient bloodline (white crystal) = level 1(39%)]

He had finally digested a complete piece of leg, giving him 1% from each piece, the total of 12% from 12 pieces.

He took out another leg from his void stomach, and divide it into 12 equal pieces like before. Consuming 1 and storing the remaining one.

"Mia, why is ancient bloodline crystal from 2 legs of the bloody eagle is equal to single bronze earthworm? I agree bloody eagle level may be higher than bronze earthworm but why?"

[Bloody eagle is variation monster, not any variation, but blood variation. It feeds on the blood while other eagle feeds on meat. It absorbed useful or suitable blood and excrete unsuitable blood, and every particle of ancient blood is useful, increasing the contents of ancient bloodline in blood.]

He understood. From Mia description, variation type monster gave, more bloodline crystal, then regular one and monster feeding on blood gave even more bloodline crystal.

"Doesn't that mean vampire can give more bloodline crystal?"

[Yes, as it feeds on blood, so it keeps a large amount of ancient DNA on its body.]

"Ho-Ho, Beware!! Vampire, your father is coming for you, when I have enough power to crush you. Continue the collection of a variety of bloodline to support your father."

He became overjoyed. He expected that he should consume a large amount of monster, to get destruction point, but since there were some species like a vampire, he could continuously farm it, as there must be no shortage of vampire in this world.

After ending the discussion with Mia, he entered inside the tunnel, size of this tunnel was quite big for him but if a human wanted to enter it, then they have to crawl. This tunnel was very dark, darker than the death canyon.

If not for his night vision, he might have gotten lost even though it was a straight path.

After traveling some distance, he reached the end of the tunnel, and there he found the circular metallic door, looks like it was capable of resisting all attack. He didn't know whether he could push it or not, but there was no loss in trying.

He touched the door with his head, ready to push it but with just touch of his head, it fell back instead of opening.

"What the fuck!!"

[I don't know who design this door, but he must be a complete idiot.]

He looked at the fallen door and found its lock and screw completely corroded, leaving only door frame behind.

He also agreed with Mia. Who with a sane mind, would make this type of door to block poison. And couldn't you use the same type of components for both lock and screw? Same as the door frame.
