The World Serpent

Chapter 18 - 18-Leveling For Evolution



After waking up atop the Boulder within the Forest, Persia began her Last Journey in the Area. The Bright Golden Sun ascended to Heavens as the Daybreak arrived. With the Rising Sun from the Horizon. The White Fluffy Clouds and the Windy Breeze of the Blue Skies. The Echelons flew into groups in one direction. And The Creatures that began their hunts.

As Persia leaves the boulder, She slithered through the Tall Slick Grass. The Surface was Uneven and Wet, But Persia was unaffected as she was already used to such conditions. It was time to start her Evolution, and to start the Evolution was to hunt for Biomass.

She traversed through the Area around the boulder. She was trying to find the Prey that could help her achieved her Evolution, But it was all for naught as she slithered through the Area without any signs of Prey. Persia didn't let such things put her mood down. She continued finding the Prey she wanted until it happened.

'Vibrations?' Persia thought to herself. While slithering through the Area, Numerous Vibrations echoed within her mind. It passed through her Seismic Tracking. It was her Prey giving a signal towards her. With this fact in her mind, Persia raised an eyebrow.

'Prey?' With this thought, Persia slithered towards the Direction of the Vibrations. She passed through the Grass, Ferns, and Trees that blocked her way. Persia traversed the Area and charged towards the Prey that gave the Vibrations. As Persia arrived at the Location of the Vibrations, Persia caught a glimpse of her Prey eating peacefully. They were Mammals. The Creatures looked like Small rodents that she ate long ago.

'Mammals? Well, I guess there is nothing I could do.' Persia got surprised when she saw a Mammal. They were Rodents, and Such Creatures went into hiding deep within the ground. The Only time she found them, they were hunting for food. Persia quietly slithered towards the Rodents. She wanted to Eat them and Swallow them whole.

'3 of them?' As She quietly slithered towards the Rodents. Persia managed to discover Three Rodents within the Group. She was fortunate to meet the Rodents in large numbers. She slithered through the Grass and slowly got behind the Peaceful Rodents. Persia silently stares coldly towards the Creatures from their behind. Persia then began her Attack and went for the Bite.

She opened her Jaw and bit at the First Rodent. Her Fangs easily pierced through its Flesh and her Venom began secreting out of its gland. Persia didn't wait for the Rodent to get affected by the Venom and quickly swallowed it whole. After eating the First Rodent, Persia stared coldly at the second one.

She slithered towards Second Rodent. The Second Rodent tried to escape, but it was all for nothing as Persia was too fast. She easily arrived in front of the Rodent and quickly attacked it. She opened her Jaw deep and wide. She took a Bite and swallowed the Second Rodent whole.

The Third Rodent was already running away from Persia. It was heading towards the Bush as it wanted to make the Bush confused Persia. But Unfortunate for the Third Rodent. Persia had senses above a Normal Snake and a Normal Creature. She was a Monster and an Abomination born from Strange Attributes and Dangerous Skills.

Persia arrived right next to the Third Rodent and opened her Jaw. It was Wide, and she swallowed the Third Rodent Whole. The Three Rodents got killed and eaten by Persia. It was easy, and it was like a swipe of a finger. After killing the Rodents, Persia slithered towards the Bush in front of her as she needed cover.

'That was easy...' Persia sighed in relief. She wanted to cover from the Bush as Persia wanted to digest the Rodents peacefully without any external threats near her. As time passes by within the Bush, A Notification echoed deep within her Mind. It signified that Persia had digested the Three Rodents.

*Ding!*

[You have eaten 3 Mammal Creatures named Pygmy mouse... You have gained 15 Biomass.]

'Hmm... I only need 35 Biomass to evolve.' Persia thought to herself while staring at the Notification. She only received 15 Biomass from eating the Rodents. It wasn't a Surprised as she already knew the Biomass conversion. After the Notification echoed within her mind, Persia's head rose from the ground.

'Let's Continue... The Frogs that managed to Escape the Hunt during the Night is probably roaming near the Pond.' Persia thought to herself. It was time for her to continue the Hunt as she was far from reaching 50 Biomass. She traversed through the Forest and kept her Senses high up lower the chance of ambush or dragged into a dangerous situation.

She slithered through the Forest at her Full Speed. She was currently heading towards the Ledge she discovered in Nightfall. Persia understood that it was the Graveyard of the Young Honey Badger. She may be wrong, but it was still the place where she left the Young Honey Badger to die.

Persia traversed through the Grass at her Full Speed. She easily avoided the Trees and Rocks that blocked her Way. She was getting nearer to the Ledge. As time passes by within the Daylight, It took 10 minutes for Persia to reached the Ledge. She slithered towards the Bush that reminded her of the Nightfall.

Persia stared at the Pond below her. She was atop the Ledge she recently stand on. As she stared at the Pond where it happened, Persia noticed the sign of blood getting dragged to the Northern Part of the Forest. It was where the Coyotes reside. It was a dangerous place leading to the Mountains in the North. After staring at the painted blood, Persia shook her head.

'My Revenge has been achieved. I hope that Predator got eaten.' Persia thought to herself. She had a Cold Expression plastered on her face. She was slowly changing in the Wild. She was adapting and becoming a Merciless Monster that lacks its humanity. But there was no need to keep something useless in the Wild.

'Anyway, I need to find the Frogs.' Persia thought to herself as she activated her tracking skills. She flicked her Snake Tongue and took the scents in the air. She listened carefully to the songs given to her by Nature. The Vibrations she got from the Seismic Tracking. She looked around the Pond with her Infrared Vision. With all of these Skills activated, Persia had the results within her mind.

'They're Missing...' Persia furrowed her non-existent eyebrow. She couldn't find anything about the Frogs. Even with all her Tracking Skills activated. The Frog's Tracks were missing. With this fact in mind, Persia shook her head in disappointment. The Frogs were probably far from the Pond by now.

Persia was disappointed. She had no choice but to turn back to where she came. She turned her head around and slithered back. As she slithered back, Persia noticed a Stream of Water in the opposite direction of the pond. An Idea appeared within her mind. It was a Good Idea and a Smart One.

'The Frogs love water, so if there were a Body of Water near the Area. The Frogs must be gathering there.' Persia didn't know if she was correct, but she was already given the proof that the Frogs would gather at one spot. It was her experience in the Recent Nightfall.

With this in mind, Persia slithered with the Stream of Water. She planned to follow the Stream until she could meet a Creature or Frog that she could eat. She followed it quietly while she was gaining speed. Persia dodges the Thick Ferns and Rocks that were blocking her Way. There were a lot of them gathering near the Streams.

While Persia was slithering through the Forest, Numerous Vibrations echoed within her Mind. She was surprised when she heard the Vibrations echoing. Persia's mood got elevated that she finally discovered her potential Prey or Frog. Persia quickly looked around in her Position to find where the Vibrations were coming from.

She pointed her head towards the Vibrations when she pinpointed it. The Vibrations were numerous, so there was a good chance that Persia was encountering a single Prey. It would probably be a Group of Creatures. Persia then slithered towards the Vibration at a Fast Speed. Her Fast movements were also quiet and were hard to detect.

Persia kept dodging the Rocks and Trees that blocked her way. She was already used to not slither in a straight line. Even if she wasn't slithering at a straight line, Persia was still gaining more speed. The Vibrations got louder and louder, which would mean she was getting closer to the Group of Creatures.

Persia arrived at the Bush that was separating her and the Creatures. Her speed slowed down as she was cautious about this Group of Creatures. She slowly slithered towards the Bush, and Persia finally caught a glimpse of her Prey. 'Intriguing and Perfect...'

The Creatures she found were Frogs. They were gathering near a Stream that was bigger than normal. The Total Number of Frogs within the Group was 4. It wasn't that much, but Persia was still grateful for the gift she had gotten. There was no need to be picky as she was already needy.

'Kill!!!' For some unknown reason, Persia felt a strange feeling that wanted to charge towards the Group of Frogs. She wanted to stop her body, but she couldn't do anything about it. She wanted to evolve as fast as she can. She wanted to feel safe and not see the world in this humongous state. But she wouldn't easily risk her life and die for no reason.

'Improvise, Adapt, Overcome.' Persia thought to herself. With this in mind... She didn't stop her body from charging and went with her instinct. Persia charged through the Bushes and easily got out of it. She appeared right next to the Frogs, and She activated her Accelerated Thought Process.

Persia then began her Killing...

She slithered through the Frogs and opened her Jaw. She quickly ate the First Frog that was right next to her. She swallowed it whole and stared at the Second Frog. She charges towards the Second Frog at her full speed. The Second Frog was escaping, and it was about to jump. As it jumps, Persia easily caught it in midair. She swallowed the Second Frog without any problems.

After eating Second Frog, Persia slithered towards the Third Frog. It got frozen in fear as it didn't expect Persia to ambush them. She was a Strong Baby Snake that could easily handle creatures at the same level as her. Persia opened her Jaw and swallowed the Third Frozen Frog.

As she swallowed the Third Frozen Frog in whole, Persia turned her head and stared coldly at the Fourth Frog. The Fourth Frog didn't have fear within its eyes and began to attack Persia. Persia easily dodged the Attack of the Frog and swallowed the Fourth Frog. Only 5 seconds had passed since Persia began her ambushed. It was a good record.

'Heh...' Persia had a smirk plastered on her snake face. She was getting too confident when she easily swallowed the Frogs. She didn't even need to use her Poison as she already ate the Frog whole. Persia stretched her Snake Body and slithered towards the Bush. She wanted to take her time digesting the Frogs.

As time passes by, The Notification rang again.

*Ding!*

[You have eaten 4 Amphibian Creatures named Small Frog... You have gained 20 Biomass.]

'I need 15 Biomass to evolve.' Persia thought to herself when she heard the notification ringing deep within her mind. She was almost finished with her Baby Snake Adventure. It took a lot of time for her to Level Up the Baby Snake, but it was within reason. She didn't have any animals to eat other than Little Creatures in the Forest. That was the only reason she had.

'Now, I heard that Bird Eggs exist.' Persia thought to herself with a sly smile plastered on her face.. She looked around the forest and stared at each Tree with a strange creepy smile.
