There was plenty of time left for him to explore. What he needed to do now was to figure out the terrain of the remaining islands and to hunt.
That's right, hunting and eating. Since the evolution, Gray, who had just eaten the turtle carcass, was once again hungry.
Moreover, he didn't know if it was due to the mutation and evolution, Gray starved exceptionally fast. It was as if he couldn't eat his fill no matter how much he ate.
Until now, in just a few hours, he had already eaten five times.
Of course, it was worth mentioning that after eating five times, Gray's evolution points had also increased from 0 to 20.
Thinking up to this point, Gray constricted his eyes.
"Rumble." A rumbling sound was heard.
A blue system interface appeared in his retina:
[ Host: Gray
Race: mutated Komodo giant lizard
Level: Level 3
Evolution Points: 20
Ability:
Bite: the sharp teeth after evolution are enough to tear apart the muscles and defense of most creatures.
Sharp claws: a sharp claw that can attack in an instant. It can be completed in a second.
Tail swing: use its thick tail that is as long as its body to swiftly whip the enemy.
Venom: the innate venom of the Komodo lizard race. The venom is even more powerful. It can poison a buffalo to death in an hour. ]
It was a simple yet detailed panel. Of course, if one looked carefully, one would definitely notice that there was a button called "strengthening" at the bottom right corner of the panel.
"System, help me open the strengthening panel."
With a murmur, Gray noticed that the blue screen in front of him started to shake, followed by another blue screen that was popping out.
[ Strengthened claw (level 3) : the claw is a terrifying weapon of the Komodo race. With every strengthening, it can make the claw sharper (cost: 30 evolution points).
Strengthened scale armor (level 3) : it has its innate weapon, and naturally, it has its innate defense equipment. It can harden the scale armor covering its body so that it becomes more difficult to destroy (cost: 30 evolution points).
Enhanced Venom (level 3) : it can make the innate venom more lethal. Even a huge African elephant will find it difficult to withstand it. It will die in less than half an hour (cost: 30 evolution points).
Strengthened body (level 3) : it can strengthen the entire body, including bones and muscle tissues. It can make one's body undergo a qualitative transformation. Not only will it increase one's strength and speed, but it will also greatly increase one's flexibility and durability (cost: 300 evolution points). ]
This attribute panel was something that Gray had gained by accident when he was adapting to his new body. Through this panel, Gray was able to systematically observe his body's condition.
He had even found the path that he needed to strengthen and evolve from this panel.
The strengthening panel allowed Gray to rely on evolution points to continuously strengthen his body and continuously become stronger...
Therefore, this evolution point was naturally the most important thing.
Right now, he only had 20 evolution points, which was not enough for him to activate the most basic first strengthening.
When he had accumulated 30 evolution points, he would attempt the first strengthening to verify the conjecture in his mind.
"I must obtain more evolution points. Constantly hunting and changing is a good thing!"
Gray muttered in his heart as he quickly determined his new goal.
As for adapting to his new body and other things...
Ever since his last evolution, he seemed to have already instinctively adapted to this mutated lizard body.
He didn't know if it was the power of the system or the body's instincts that made his control of this body ridiculously fast.
The only thing that made Gray a bit sad was that he was reborn as a Komodo lizard.
Moreover, it was a mutated lizard.
But forget it. After being reborn, he knew that life was precious. Now, no matter what he became, he had to work hard to survive.
If he had time to worry about whether he was a human or an animal, he might as well find more food to fill his stomach and collect evolution points.
Thinking of this, Gray took a step and quickly crawled towards the pitch-black corpse not far away.
"Kacha, kacha."
A pair of sharp teeth continuously tore the already cooked corpse of the animal, easily tearing its flesh and bones.
At the next moment, the bite muscles exerted force, and Gray bit and swallowed both the flesh and bones.
"Ding-dong, you are devouring the flesh of a mutated wild boar. You have gained 10 evolution points..."
It was the same cold tone as before, causing Gray's body to tremble.
This evolution point had come so easily.
In just 10 minutes, he had gained another 10 evolution points.
Now, he had gathered 30 evolution points.
It was time to see the changes that these evolution points could bring. However, the most important thing now was to find a safe shelter and spend the night.
Thinking of this, Gray found a collapsed boulder and slowly crouched down.
This huge boulder perfectly covered his four-meter-long body.
After making preparations, Gray looked at the light blue attribute panel on his retina and thought to himself,
"System, I choose to spend 30 evolution points to evolve my sharp claws."
Just as he finished speaking, the system's cold notification sounded:
"Host, are you sure you want to use 30 evolution points to strengthen your sharp claws?"
"Yes, I'm."
Gray nodded his head in acknowledgment. Suddenly, his body trembled. As the saying went, 10 fingers were connected to the heart. A piercing pain came from the sharp claws on his two forelimbs.
He could not help but let out a series of roars to vent his pain.
"Roar!"
The terrifying roar, made this quiet and lifeless surrounding tremble.
