Chapter 7: The Evolution of a Tiny Warrior: Rise of the Mosquito god
"Alright, time to allocate these stat points strategically," Ben muttered, pondering his options.
He considered the challenges he had faced and the skills he possessed. His agility had proven useful in escaping the spider's web, but he also needed to increase his strength and stamina for future encounters.
After careful consideration, Ben decided to distribute his stat points as follows:
Strength: +0.2
Agility: +0.1
Stamina: +0.1
With his increased strength, Ben hoped to deliver more powerful attacks and defend himself better against potential threats. The boost to his agility and stamina would enhance his overall mobility and endurance, allowing him to navigate through various environments and engage in prolonged battles if necessary.
Satisfied with his choices, Ben felt a newfound confidence coursing through his tiny mosquito veins. He knew each decision he made could greatly impact his survival in this strange world.
"By the way, system! Is there a way to heal my middle left leg by any chance?" Ben asked in hesitation, not sure what to expect as an answer.
[Yes host! Your body will go through a full recovery once you evolve to EVO1. [I don't have any information on how many level-ups are required for you to evolve further, but you can certainly evolve if you keep leveling up constantly.]
The system's response echoed in Ben's mind, providing him with a glimmer of hope. If he continued to level up and evolve, there was a possibility that his missing leg would be restored.
"Evolution..." Ben murmured, contemplating the concept. "So, if I keep leveling up, I have a chance to regain my missing leg and potentially acquire even more powerful abilities?"
[That is correct, host. Evolution is a transformative process that occurs as you reach certain milestones in your growth. It brings about significant changes to your form and abilities, potentially granting you new strengths and capabilities.]
Ben's determination surged anew. He had already experienced the benefits of leveling up and allocating his stat points strategically. Now, the prospect of evolving and unlocking even greater potential motivated him to press forward.
"The longer I live in this world, the more it feels like an MMORPG game," Ben thought, his wings buzzing in excitement.
"Alright, then it's decided! Bombard me with any leveling-up quest you have," Ben said, with a newfound determination in his bubbly mosquito eyes.
╬═?Quest Update?═╬
? Permanent quests have been triggered.
? Consume different types of blood from different species.
[Reward: (5 exp + stat points) ]
The quest seemed to revolve around Ben's ability to consume blood from various species. It intrigued him, as he had already relied on blood to sustain himself in this world. Now, it appeared that by feeding on different types of blood, he could further enhance his growth.
Excited by the possibilities, Ben accepted the quest with a buzz of his wings. He understood that completing this quest would not only grant him experience points but also provide additional stat points to allocate as he saw fit.
As he set out on his quest, Ben's senses sharpened, attuned to the presence of potential sources of blood. He flew through diverse environments, searching for different species to feed on.
- Passive skill activated: Blood Tracker -
As soon as the notification popped up in front of Ben, the world around him turned a light red color, with red flame-like shapes coming out of the living things.
"Is this something like a thermosensor camera from my world? Except for the red color, I guess yes, it is." Ben concluded, in excitement, that he was looking for a life source around him.
"There it is!" he exclaimed in excitement before launching towards a dark red energy source.
"woohoo"
Ben buzzed in excitement, surprised by the speed at which he was flying. Not only could he fly almost twice as fast as before, but he was also able to fly higher than the last time.
"Let's go, system."
["..."]
As he approached the energy source, he saw a group of cattle grazing in a nearby field. The red flame-like shapes intensified around them, indicating their availability as a potential food source. Ben descended gracefully, landing softly on a nearby branch to observe the situation before making his move.
He observed an eight-foot-tall, massive bull-like animal with five big horns, and its body felt as if it were made of metallic spikes.
"What the hell is that thing?" Ben asked with wide eyes.
[ That's a magical beast from this world's host! but don't worry since it's nighttime and the bull is still sleeping. Which makes it a good target for your host.]
...
Without hesitation, Ben took flight again, zooming towards the mutant bull with precision and speed. He approached from behind, careful not to alert the animal to his presence. With a swift motion, he pierced the mutant bull's skin with his proboscis, extracting a small amount of blood.
As Ben consumed the mutant bull's blood, he felt a surge of energy coursing through his tiny body. The taste was different from anything he had experienced before, tinged with a metallic flavor and a hint of energy. Unlike human blood, this one felt an energy sensation as if he had stuck his tongue in a battery.
After finishing his feeding, Ben retreated to a safe distance, allowing the mutant bull to continue its slumber undisturbed. He felt a sense of satisfaction, knowing that he had completed his quest and acquired valuable nourishment.
"Ding!!"
[Quest progressed]
[Beast blood has been consumed by mutant buffalo ]
[Exp: +5 Strength: +0.1]
"Koooool! Hey system, do I get random stats each time I consume blood from now on?" Ben asked, buzzing in excitement.
The host can only get 0.1 stat points from one particular being. As for the stat point, it depends on which species you consume the blood of. As an example, beast blood will get you +0.1 strength point, human blood will get you +0.1 agility point, and
"Wait a second! "So does this mean that I can grow strong as long as I keep consuming the blood of different species?" Ben asked in anticipation and curiosity.
[ Data unavailable! [Please evolve the system for further answers. ]
"Sigh!" Ben sighed, his wings lowering, expressing his disappointment. " Nevermind! Show me the stats."

Ben couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement and satisfaction as he looked at his updated status. After all, who would believe that just a few minutes ago he was a puny mosquito with all his stats at 0.1? Even a strong gust of wind would be enough to kill him.
"The system sure has its ways," Ben commented, nodding his little mosquito head in satisfaction.
"Alright, time to find more sources of blood and continue my growth," Ben declared, buzzing his wings in determination. He knew that by consuming the blood of different species, he could further enhance his abilities and increase his chances of survival.
With the help of his Blood Tracker passive skill, Ben soared through the night, seeking out potential blood sources. But unfortunately for him, all he could find was another sheep-like mutant beast with brown fur and two sharp tails lazing around.
"Alright, time to increase some strength," Ben thought, rubbing his hands before he launched towards the other two beasts and took a sip from the two of them.
"Ding!!"

"Ding!!"
