Although she was just casually livestreaming, gaining a hundred thousand followers so quickly gave Chen Mengjie a burst of accomplishment.
"Whew…"
Letting out a soft breath, Chen Mengjie calmed her excitement, gave a sweet smile to the camera, and said, "Dear viewers, that's it for today's livestream. See you next time."
As soon as her voice fell, as expected, a flurry of surprised comments floated across the stream.
"Host, this is the peak time for viewers! Logging off now will make you lose fans."
"I was too focused on the squirrel and the snake just now, barely got to see the pretty streamer. Ten bamboo branches to keep the host online a bit longer."
"Keep streaming a little more to stabilize your popularity."
Seeing so many fans pleading in the stream, Chen Mengjie was deeply touched, but in the end, she still turned off the brast.
Moved, but declined.
After putting her phone back in her pocket, Chen Mengjie walked over to Meng Ning, Song Ran, and Zhang Yun.
"Sister Yun, what are you doing?"
She saw that Zhang Yun had taken out her laptop and was now holding a piece of bread in one hand while operating the computer with the other.
"I'm preparing to send that photo of the squirrel and the snake cuddling together to the editor of Legend Magazine, to see if it can be published in the wildlife photography column."
Zhang Yun looked up and smiled at Chen Mengjie as she spoke.
Hearing this, Chen Mengjie's eyes lit up, and she quickly said, "Sister Yun, your photo this time is definitely going to get published!"
Meng Ning and Song Ran both nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Zhang Yun smiled, and her heart couldn't help but stir with excitement.
She had always aspired to become a wildlife photographer and had been hoping to get her work published in major media outlets, though she had never succeeded before.
After all, the places she used to go were just ordinary forests.
The scenes she captured were common in the wild, lacking y and punch, so she was rejected every time.
But this time was different—the sight of a snake and mouse coexisting in harmony was extremely rare.
Maybe this time, her dream would finally come true.
But all the previous rejections made her feel especially anxious.
Would she succeed this time?
…
As for what happened after he left, Bai Zhe had no idea. At this moment, he was checking his skill points.
The increase in Fame Points had brought him several skill point rewards.
Adding in the 5 skill points he had received from the last evolution, he now had a total of 15 skill points!
Skill points were incredibly important to him at this stage—they could significantly increase his strength.
"I wonder if new skills will appear this time?"
The thought crossed Bai Zhe's mind.
During his last upgrade, he had been hoping for new skills to appear, but the 5 skill points he earned didn't unlock any new ones.
Of course, it was also possible that the system only provided two skills: "Chameleon Camouflage" and "Venomous Fangs."
Thinking of this, Bai Zhe felt a bit uneasy.
"System, show currently available skills to learn."
With a mix of anticipation and nervousness, Bai Zhe made the request in his mind.
[Current skill points can be used to learn the following four skills.]
[Chameleon Camouflage: Active skill…]
…
[Rapid Digestion: Passive skill. The host's digestive ability will increase dramatically. As long as food is consumed, this skill activates automatically. Each upgrade consumes 5 skill points. Current evolution level: 0/5]
[Phosphorus Armor Resistance: Passive skill. The host's phosphorus scales become tougher, while also granting resistance to heat and cold. Each upgrade consumes 8 skill points. Current evolution level: 0/5]
After scanning this set of text, Bai Zhe's heart surged with joy. As expected, new skills had appeared this time.
And one of them was precisely the ability he had longed for—Rapid Digestion.
…
In the past, whenever he hunted and ate, he had to spend a lot of time digesting the food. This not only wasted hunting time but also greatly increased his risk in the wild.
After all, once full, his body would become sluggish, and both speed and agility would drastically drop.
The appearance of this skill would solve those problems.
The other new skill, Phosphorus Armor Resistance, also intrigued him greatly. This skill not only enhanced his defense but also granted resistance to both heat and cold—essentially offering three effects in one.
After thinking it over carefully, Bai Zhe decided to allocate one skill point to each of the two new skills.
A strange sensation spread through his body and scales, but it soon faded away.
He twisted his body and rubbed against a palm-sized rock.
"Indeed, my scales feel much sturdier now."
As his body scraped against the gravel, Bai Zhe felt the texture on his scales and sighed inwardly. At the same time, he noticed that his scales had become glossier.
Then, he moved to an area exposed to direct sunlight.
The scorching sunlight beamed down on him, and after sensing it carefully, he concluded that it no longer felt as hot as it used to.
He understood this was due to the changes brought by the "Phosphorus Armor Resistance" skill. Unfortunately, each upgrade of this skill required eight skill points.
"If only I could level up once more, I'd get five more skill points."
Bai Zhe thought longingly.
Although the skill points from the next level-up wouldn't be enough to upgrade "Phosphorus Armor Resistance," they could still be used to enhance "Rapid Digestion."
That skill was one he particularly favored as well.
Opening the attribute panel, he glanced at the skill list.
[Skills: Venomous Fangs (2/5), Phosphorus Armor Resistance (1/5), Rapid Digestion (1/5)]
Bai Zhe now finally had three skills under his belt.
"Evolution Points: 180. Still need 70 more to trigger the next evolution."
A sharp glint flashed through Bai Zhe's eyes.
Now that he had leveled up "Rapid Digestion," his hunting efficiency would improve significantly.
With some luck, he might even complete the task today.
As this thought crossed his mind, his heart stirred. But soon, his attention shifted to the Defense stat—it had increased to 6.0. Bai Zhe clearly remembered that last time, it was only 2.0.
An immediate jump of 4 points in Defense—it was obviously due to the "Phosphorus Armor Resistance" skill.
From the looks of it now, if you want to increase Defense, relying on upgrades is far less efficient than investing skill points.
After thinking randomly for a moment, Bai Zhe composed himself and refocused on scanning for prey.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Bai Zhe's senses tingled, and his gaze snapped forward. Ahead of him squatted a frog about ten centimeters long. Its coloring matched the surrounding environment so well that it was practically invisible at first glance.
[Ding! Target detected: Horned Frog! Devouring it will yield 10 Evolution Points.]
