[Soul Point Allocation]: Soul Talent, function unknown, cannot be parsed.
Su Bai's gaze shifted to the Soul Point Allocation talent; the system's description still showed little change and remained unreadable.
However, when he looked again at the single Soul Point he possessed, a tiny, nearly imperceptible "+" appeared after his four main attributes and five Passive Skills.
It seemed that whenever he wished, he could assign this Soul Point to either an attribute or a skill.
"Free attribute point, or skill point?"
"Or a combination of both?"
Since it could be applied to attributes or skills, Su Bai's only guess was that it was a combination of the two.
Monsters are not humans; they don't have the concept of free attribute or skill points.
Each level up, a monster's four attributes increase according to its Attribute Template. For example, Su Bai's basic Attribute Template grants +1 to all four attributes per level.
Skills only improve when the Attribute Template advances.
If Soul Points are truly a mix of free attribute and skill points, then Su Bai gained an additional powerful way to strengthen himself beyond other monsters!
For now, he didn't worry about attributes.
They increased naturally with every level and evolution.
Su Bai turned his attention to his five Passive Skills:
Enhanced Pincer Fang, Reinforced Carapace, Healing, Regeneration, Basic Poison Resistance.
Except for the first (offensive), the other four were survival-oriented.
Thinking it over, Su Bai decided to assign his single Soul Point to Enhanced Pincer Fang.
The next moment, the Soul Point vanished, and the description of Enhanced Pincer Fang blurred, replaced by a new Passive Skill at the same position.
[Sharp Pincer Fang]: Passive Skill. Infused with mysterious power, your Pincer Fang becomes even sturdier and sharper. Steel no longer blocks your bite; only magical power can resist it.
Very powerful!
Seeing the new skill description, Su Bai couldn't hide his excitement.
If the original Ant's Pincer Fang was level one, and Enhanced Pincer Fang level two, then Sharp Pincer Fang was level three!
Able to tear through steel easily, Su Bai found it hard to imagine anything in the forest that could resist his hunting.
"Too bad there's only one Soul Point..."
Su Bai greedily thought.
If he had enough Soul Points to maximize attributes and skills, even as an ant, he'd be a Pincer Fang strong enough to devour Great Dragons!
After the excitement, Su Bai pondered the origin of Soul Points.
It was undeniable that hunted creatures had to be official monsters.
Before this evolution, he had hunted hundreds of insects without obtaining Soul Points; only after devouring Slime did he get one.
The main difference was Slime's total attributes exceeded 1 point, loading game rules and becoming an official monster!
"I wonder if all monsters can provide Soul Points..."
"If that's true... I'm gonna be unstoppable!"
After calming down, Su Bai crawled out of his nest, heading deeper into the forest to hunt monsters and grow stronger.
He wouldn't return for a long time.
Before leaving, he wanted to see the Little Worker Ant once more.
"But... I wonder if the Little Worker Ant will still recognize me..."
Looking at his greatly enlarged body—now 10 centimeters long—and his gleaming, blade-like Pincer Fangs, Su Bai smiled bitterly.
This might be his last time entering the anthill.
His size reached the anthill's capacity limit. With further evolution and growth, forcing entry would collapse the nest.
Fortunately, Su Bai's worry didn't come true.
When he appeared before the Little Worker Ant, it just stared blankly for a while, then placed a semi-solid pellet before him, releasing the familiar scent.
"Eat..."
Seeing the tiny pellet barely enough to fill his teeth gaps, Su Bai chuckled helplessly.
He carefully picked up the pellet and ate it, gently tapping the Little Worker Ant with his antennae.
"Thank you for remembering me. I'm leaving... maybe for a long time."
"I'll come back to see you when I can..."
After silently saying this, Su Bai tapped the Little Worker Ant again and crawled outside.
The Little Worker Ant was unharmed.
As long as Su Bai cleared the Slime around the anthill, it would be safe deep inside.
Perhaps... this was all Su Bai could do for the Little Worker Ant.
Only after Su Bai's figure disappeared into the tunnel did the Little Worker Ant move.
It placed the larval food before itself and twitched its tiny antennae.
"Come... back?"
"Eat..."
"...Eat... grow bigger... I... find..."
