Chapter 17 17. Biological Level Upgrade

At 5 o'clock in the morning, Xu Zhi looked at the game console and asked sincerely, "Can you make a timer function?"

"It's just that I tell them what to do at a certain time."

As she finished her words, the narrator responded.

【Please work hard to upgrade your clan. 】

"oh."

Xu Zhi understood.

The narrator was responding to her indirectly, perhaps when the clan's level was higher, she would no longer need to give them orders through the game all the time, but would be able to arrange their own time?

That's actually quite good. When she has more followers and her health is better, she won't be able to stay at home all the time just playing video games.

It's very troublesome to have too many followers and switch between them. It would be best if they could arrange their own time. She can also observe their status at any time through the game console, and she doesn't have to arrange everything. It's great.

"Upgrade quickly!"

Xu Zhi was already looking forward to the moment when he could become a hands-off boss.

When the two followers were outside looking for black fruits, Xu Zhi was also observing through their perspective. Then she found that the traces of animals seemed to have become less, and she still couldn't see any alien species. But thanks to the fact that the vision would be widened after the followers were upgraded, she saw human traces from the pixel screen.

The other party's movements were not like those of lunatics, but rather like those of a normal person carefully moving through the fog. He was groping forward when he didn't see his clan, and when he heard some movement, he immediately stopped and found shelter to hide. If he were one of those lunatics, he wouldn't be so careful.

Xu Zhi ignored him and let his family leave as he passed by. After all, the man was not heading towards the old settlement. The top priority now was to find the black fruit.

Hard work pays off. With the efforts of the two clansmen, Xu Zhi really found a black fruit.

This fruit was naturally fed to Xiaoyi. Her current goal was to raise Xiaoyi to level 20 as soon as possible. With this fruit, Xiaoyi would definitely be able to upgrade.

An hour later, Xiaoyi woke up from the state of absorbing the fruit.

Even though your clan has become much stronger since the last time they ate this fruit, it's still not strong enough for them to fully absorb the fruit's power. Perhaps next time, they'll be able to absorb the energy more completely.

[Family: Snake Lv14 → Python Lv15

Spirit: 300

Flesh: 1400

Attribute: Blade

Traits: Toxin Lv6, Sharpness Lv4, Bloodthirst Lv5, Cunning Lv4, Strength Lv5

Special Ability: Transformation Lv1

[Evolution Points: 3000/4000]

[Congratulations, your clan has reached level 15, and the creature level has been upgraded.]

[Congratulations, your clan has obtained a special supernatural ability: Transformation]

[Change: Is what you see real? Is what you hear true? Is your perception true or deceiving you? That is not an illusion, it is change.]

[Low-level transformations can only change the size of the family's body, and the maximum cannot exceed twice the size of the main body. Increasing the level of the family will allow the transformation to upgrade and unlock more abilities.]

[Due to some special reasons, you will be able to extract a trait from your family]

【Please select: Extract】

"Sure enough, that special reason is the black fruit."

The black fruit allows her to extract the abilities of her clan members.

Xu Zhi watched as Xiaoyi's body on the screen suddenly grew in size after shedding his skin. His length had already reached nearly ten meters, and his body had become extremely sturdy. His black scales were glowing slightly, his golden pupils were contracting, and his eyes were cold and menacing. Just looking at him gave people a suffocating feeling of oppression.

"All other attributes have been improved, and there's also an additional level 5 strength."

The change from level 14 to level 15 can be described as a qualitative leap.

But the most important thing is that special ability, that is, the extraordinary ability that can be used actively.

"Change, it's a simple and clear name."

At the moment it may seem like a simple ability to change body size, but with a little thought, you'll realize that this ability is actually quite useful.

What's more, it can be upgraded as the clan improves.

This reminded Xu Zhi of his [Eyes of Insight]. As his extraordinary level increased, his [Eyes of Insight] would be able to see more things.

Does this mean that all extraordinary abilities with initiative are like this?

They will improve as their host improves, and when the host is weak, they cannot exert their full strength.

What if it is a supernatural ability with a very low initial level?

If the host's level increases, will it also be improved, or will it always be a weak supernatural ability?

Many questions flooded Xu Zhi's mind. As she learned more about the extraordinary, more doubts arose, as if this was a bottomless pit that could never be fully explored.

"Forget it, there's no point thinking about it now."

She shook her head, put these questions aside for the time being, asked Xiaoyi and Gouzi to come back first, and then planned to go upstairs to talk to Shen Jinwen.

Because Xiaoyi was now too big, it shrank down on its own to fit into the residential building. When Xiaoyi came back, Xu Zhi looked at it and asked, "How small can you shrink to?"

The narration only said that the maximum size could not exceed twice the body size, but did not say to what extent it could be reduced.

So under her gaze, Xiaoyi obediently used his ability to shrink his body until it was reduced to a small snake that was less than half a centimeter wide and no more than half a meter long.

Even because the scales became more refined as the biological level increased, when Xiaoyi was motionless, it seemed that it was not a snake, but an exquisitely carved ornament.

"So small?" Xu Zhi was a little surprised. It would be easy to hide himself with such a small body.

Xu Zhi thought for a moment, then stretched out his right hand and tapped his slender wrist, "Come up."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoyi obediently climbed up Xu Zhi's hand that was placed next to it, wrapped its body around Xu Zhi's wrist and then stopped moving. At first glance, it couldn't be seen that it was a living snake, but more like an exquisite black jade bracelet.

All I can say is that it's very convenient for sneak attacks.

Xu Zhi nodded in satisfaction, while the dog beside him scratched the ground with its paws in dissatisfaction and whimpered in grievance.

Xu Zhi felt that it was probably asking why Xiaoyi could stick it but it couldn't.

"You really don't know?"

Xu Zhi looked at it seriously and asked, then saw the dog tilt its head in confusion.

Well, it looks like it really doesn't count.

"Don't jump on me without my permission, and don't lick my face! Remember?"

Xu Zhi gave another serious explanation, but the dog just tilted its head to the other side innocently.

The three big words "I didn't understand" were already written on its face.

Xu Zhi's forehead vein jumped, but he endured it and said, "I know you understand, don't pretend!"

"Now, come out with me and be obedient, okay?"

Hearing this, the dog, who had been pretending not to understand, immediately jumped up, wagged its tail, turned around in a circle, and stared at Xu Zhi with expectant eyes, as if urging her to set off quickly.

"Haha." Xu Zhi sneered, knowing that this stupid dog had no intelligence!
