Laws of the Insect Hive

v1 Chapter 83: Short-term pupation (part 2)

   Since he has completed the third degeneration, which is equivalent to the second pupalization, even if he makes up for the first two pupalizations, it will not change his body too much.

   But he must go through this process once, and only once.

   His first pupation and second pupation will be combined together. After completing this process, he can be counted as the last insect with the talent of [Pupation].

  ……

   From the itch of the body quickly transformed into subtle pain, Systrom found that his thirty tentacles were like a nervous disorder, and they began to wave uncontrollably.

   There are a few tentacles even intertwined with each other, and there is a knot that cannot be solved.

  This process didn't last long. Systrom found that his tentacles gradually softened, and then gradually retracted into his body.

   The glands in his throat that were supposed to secrete [corrosive mucus] secreted a weird liquid that was as active as [corrosive mucus], flowing out of his mouth, and then crawling all over his body.

   This weird liquid formed a peculiar reaction with the epidermis and exoskeleton of his body, and was able to melt everything he had on his body surface.

   It didn't take long for Systrom's sight to dim, and his eyes melted. At the same time, Systrom's tentacles melted, and he couldn't feel the outside sound.

   His body seems to have turned into a bunch of sticky and soft gelatin, surrounded by a hard shell of unknown material, while he stirred back and forth like a paste inside.

   "Is this the state of the pupa? It really doesn't feel good."

   Like Yu Shava and other ants and butterflies, after Systrom became a chrysalis, his spirit became dizzy, and his body became a mass of paste.

  Sistem is like drinking a piece of wine, his body is stirred in the pupa, making his spirit more and more confused.

  Sistem was drunk, he felt that he had turned into a whirlpool of slime, and he manipulated the slime formed by his body to spin inside the chrysalis.

   The more Sistem Tum exerts his strength, the more dizzy his spirit is, and the more dizzy, the more his bewildered spirit wants to control his physical rotation...

  ……

  The weird insect covered with tentacles in the empty room formed a huge pupa of 35 cm in a few minutes.

   This chrysalis did not stand upright on the spot, it first rolled back and forth on the ground irregularly, and then suddenly spun like a top.

   The huge gray chrysalis rotated for nearly an hour before it calmed down and seemed to fall asleep...

   And in another empty room not far from this empty room.

   An irregular piece of flesh and blood trembles slightly.

   In ten minutes, it gradually turned into a small meat ball with a smooth and regular surface.

The spherical flesh and blood trembled gently, and a small granulation gradually grew, somewhat similar to Systrom's tentacles. This granulation grew to about three centimeters and swayed irregularly around it, seeming to be exploring something. .

   The granulation gradually retracted into the small fleshy ball, but it didn't take long for the small fleshy ball to grow a small granulation again and continue to swing irregularly.

   The first time the small meatball grows granulation shoots are not seen by anything, but the scene where the small meatball grows granulation shoots the second time happened to be hit by Black.

   This group of flesh and blood core, Systrom has told Black not to steal it.

   Black naturally obeyed the king's orders. Black came here only a little curious. He wanted to see the difference between the lump of meat that Wang recently studied.

   Looking at the granulation sticking out of the mass of meat, Blake tried to touch it with its feet.

   As the feet touched the granulation, the granulation quickly retracted into the body as if frightened. Black waited for a long time, but the granulation did not grow out of the small fleshy ball.

   But shortly after Black left, the granulation of the small meatballs grew again...

  ……

  ……

   After waking up, Systrom felt like he was locked in a dark room, and the room was extremely small, his body could not stretch at all, and it was uncomfortable.

   After a while, Systrom remembered that he had become a chrysalis by surprise, and fell asleep.

  Sisterm felt that he had been asleep for a long time. For a long time, he even thought that he had been pupating like Shava for more than four months.

   But after opening the [Tools Menu], Systrom found that only two days had passed.

   "How can it be so fast, is it time to emerge from the pupa?"

  Sisterm feels extremely bored and wants to release his body from this narrow space.

   At the same time that Sisterm was born with this idea, his body suddenly exploded with great power, and the shell of the pupa was easily broken by Sisterm.

   In the final analysis, Sisterm was originally an insect that had completed the third decay, which is equivalent to having completed the second pupation.

   So this time his pupa broke out very easily. At the moment he broke out of the pupa, Systrom regained control of his body.

   He stared at the dirt in the empty room through the cracks opened by the pupa. Sisterm quickly controlled his numerous tentacles and further tore the pupa that had been split.

   It didn't take long for Systrom to break free from the chrysalis.

Like a butterfly or an ant emerging from a pupa, Sisterm’s body became wrinkled except for the tentacles. Fortunately, it didn’t take long for the exoskeleton, eyes, and tentacles on his body surface to become inflated again. To be firm and firm.

There are still thirty tentacles, but the length of the tentacles has become longer, and Sisterm found that his tentacles have some small barbs that can be contracted. Using these barbs, Sisterm can be like a grasshopper again. Easy climbing.

   Not only that, but Systrom found that his physical appearance had changed a little after he emerged from this pupation.

   Although it is not as dramatic as the change in the appearance after the third pupation in the bloodstream ~ lightnovelpub.net~, it has also become a lot more pleasing to the eye.

   Thirty tentacles no longer grow from the roots of his original limbs, but regularly grow from all over his body.

  His body shape has also become less slender like a grasshopper, it has become shorter by about one-third.

  ……

   rank position: metamorphosis

   Level: 14/15

  ……

   After this pupalization, Systrom discovered that his original race of blue-tailed grasshoppers had disappeared and became an unknown zerg, and his lifespan was once again improved to 2113 days.

  Sisterm glanced around, he suddenly found that the butterfly pupa had disappeared. It is very likely that he had absorbed the butterfly pupa unconsciously during the pupation process.

  Sistem continued to look through his information, and he suddenly found that he had a new title-"Alien Insect".

  ……

   "Alien Insects": The title given to Sisturm by an unknown existence. Your lifespan has been increased, and the effectiveness of insects [Abilities Activation] and [Abilities Enhancement] on yourself will increase.

   You become a heterogeneous insect and lose the ability to reproduce with the grasshopper, but you can live longer.

  ……

   "Alien insects, it seems that I am no longer a grasshopper."

  Sisterm didn’t think too much, and what he became was actually no obvious difference to him...
