The slight cracking continued.
Su Bai seemed to hear the flowing of the substance wrapping him; the pressure around his body started to lessen.
Then, the mucous-like substance flowed away, and Su Bai fell out of it.
A breeze blew, bringing a chill.
Only then did Su Bai have time to observe his surroundings.
With the faint glow emitted by unknown luminescent fungi growing inside the burrow, he could clearly see the environment.
It was a dim cave.
Compared to his current size, the cave was spacious and had many deep tunnels connecting to other places. In the wide cave were many translucent egg-shaped objects.
At this moment, numerous similarly translucent creatures struggled out of those eggs.
Their bodies were segmented into three parts, with six legs. On their relatively large heads swayed two antennae, and a pair of fierce Pincer Fangs occupied a quarter of the head's area.
At a glance, Su Bai recognized the species of these creatures.
Ants.
More precisely, they were newly hatched larvae ants just crawling out of the ant eggs, their carapace not yet hardened!
"Damn it!"
"Fine, I accept rebirth into a game! But I didn't expect to be reborn not as a human, at least a monster or something, right?"
"Reborn as an ant? What the hell?!"
Su Bai had thousands of curses running through his mind, unsure whether to say them or not.
According to Su Bai's understanding of this game world, the ant he was reborn into wasn't even a monster; at best, it was some kind of living background...
Was his whole life going to be like this?
Fed by Worker Ants as larvae, working as a transporter after maturity, laboring hard to expand the ant colony, passing a short life, then quietly dying?
Thinking of such a life, Su Bai shuddered involuntarily.
"Maybe..."
"Attribute panel?"
Thinking of something, Su Bai silently recited in his mind.
The next moment, a semi-transparent attribute panel appeared in his view!
[Name]: Su Bai
[Race]: Ant
[Rank]: Dim
[Level]: Dim
[Attributes]: Strength 0.008, Agility 0.005, Constitution 0.002, Spirit 0.03
[Talents]: Soul Point Allocation (Soul Talent), Devour Evolution (Unique Talent), Adaptability (Race Talent)
[Skills]: None yet
"Soul Point Allocation: Unknown, unable to analyze."
"Devour Evolution: Even the weakest insect holds infinite potential. With the Devour Evolution talent, you gain experience by feeding, and specific foods grant Gene Points and Evolution Points. Enough Gene Points and Evolution Points allow you to evolve from an insect into higher life forms."
"Adaptability: You are an insect with extraordinary talents. If a hundred of the same insect survive in harsh conditions, you will be the last survivor. Strong Adaptability lets you survive harsh environments and occasionally gain corresponding resistances."
"As expected!"
After browsing the attribute panel from top to bottom, Su Bai was greatly encouraged.
There is always a way out!
Su Bai didn't know if other ants had attribute panels, but he knew that the panel he had, especially the Devour Evolution talent, was his hope to break free from being an ant—an insect at the very bottom of the world—and evolve into a higher life form!
The unique talent Devour Evolution was undoubtedly powerful.
Given time and enough specific prey to devour, he might evolve from a Dim Level ant into a legendary existence!
Besides Devour Evolution, Adaptability was also a very strong talent.
As an ant, Su Bai was extremely fragile now. Without mentioning countless powerful creatures possibly existing in this world, even a gust of wind, a rainstorm, or a big temperature change could kill him without leaving a trace.
With the Adaptability talent, he could survive better in this world.
Only by surviving first could he have the chance to become strong!
The Soul Talent could not even be analyzed in the attribute panel.
Su Bai guessed that this soul talent might come from his human soul reincarnated in an ant's body. Perhaps with evolution, this talent would eventually be revealed.
Su Bai had a premonition that the Soul Point Allocation talent could be no weaker than Devour Evolution, perhaps even stronger!
...
"Eat..."
"Eat..."
While Su Bai was satisfied after checking his attribute panel, a black ant several times larger than him appeared before him.
Two black antennae held a semi-solid sphere larger than Su Bai's head in front of him, emitting a strange scent.
Instinctively, Su Bai understood the meaning of that scent.
Eat.
This black ant was a Worker Ant in the nest, responsible for finding food outside and feeding newly hatched larvae like Su Bai.
In reality, ants mainly communicate through pheromones; in this game world, ant communication turned into various scents.
Perhaps these scents were pheromones, but Su Bai perceived them as understandable smells.
"Eat..."
"Eat..."
Seeing Su Bai not moving, the black Worker Ant released the scent again.
"Thanks!"
Silently thanking, Su Bai lowered his head, and the two hardened Pincer Fangs tore a small piece off the semi-solid sphere and quickly swallowed it.
"Sweet, tastes pretty good!"
As Su Bai began eating, his attribute panel began refreshing with many messages.
"Eating... gained 0.1 experience..."
"Eating... gained 0.2 experience..."
