Reborn As A Giant Scorpion: Evolution By Consumption Chapter 4
Advertisement
This primitive forest was covered with all kinds of giant planets, and all Alex could see were towering thousand-year-old trees.
Alex walked all the way, but he did not encounter many large animals after walking for half a day.
However, all kinds of trees blocked his view.
The branches of the trees intersected with each other, and the extended leaves were like green curtains. When Alex looked up at the sky, he could only see green plants, not the blue sky.
"This ancient forest is too big. At this rate, it will be more difficult to find prey than to devour it. No, I need to find a water source and try my luck in the water. It will be a good opportunity to try out my new skill," Alex thought.
Relying on the sensitivity of his body, which had completed its second evolution, Alex rushed to an even wetter place.
Not long after, Alex finally found a tributary.
The ocean surrounded this primitive forest, and the tributaries were like blood vessels that nourished the primitive forest.
The tributary in front of Alex was about 60 meters wide. Waves rose from time to time, and the river surface was muddy and bottomless.
However, Alex, who had completed his second evolution and had the Water Resistance skill, was not afraid.
He immediately activated his skill and jumped into the water!
As Alex entered the water, there was indeed another world under the water.
There were countless types of fish in the river. As expected, it was a place that humans had not harvested. The biodiversity was abundant.
Alex immediately began to hunt and eat all kinds of fish.
In a short while, he devoured more than 20 different types of fish. Among them, there was a carp that was more than a meter long. It even provided a total of three evolution points.
'The resources in the water are still plentiful. This skill will be of great use,' Alex thought as he explored deeper.

Not far away, a group of small fish had formed a shoal. They lined up neatly like an arrow at the bottom of the sea.
Alex was thrilled. He accelerated and rushed over, ready to directly wipe out the shoal of fish.
Eight seconds later, Alex met the fish head-on.
There were about 800 of them, and each of them was about 10 centimeters long.
They were different from the fish that he had just devoured. They were fat and clumsy, and their shapes were oval.
However, their ugly looks did not affect the evolution points.
Alex pounced forward and caught a handful of fish. With a firm pinch, these fish could no longer wiggle their tails.
When he made his move, Alex discovered that the scales of these fish were more robust than he had imagined.
Just as he was about to devour this handful of fish, a few fish from the shoal beside him bit him.
"What? With my current defense, these fish can still leave traces on my shell?" Alex thought in shock.
Upon further observation, although these fish were small in size, each of their teeth was very sharp.
Moreover, the eyes of these fish were scarlet!
Alex opened the system panel and directly inquired about the species:
Species Description:
Name: Piranha
Class: Bony Fish class
Order: Carps
Family: Cyprinidae
Species characteristics: long sharp teeth and attack large animals in groups. Piranhas have become one of the most notorious animals. Someone had seen a group of Piranhas tear a cow into pieces in just a few seconds. They have distinctive triangular teeth, and their biting power is astonishing. They could tear their prey apart easily. When they eat, they eat their game clean, leaving only a pile of white bones.
"So it's piranhas. But you guys are unlucky to have fallen into my hands today!"
Alex put away his underestimation of the enemy. He no longer opened his mouth and swallowed the fish directly. Instead, he attacked and defended at the same time.

He waved his two pincers to block the attack while using his tail to divide the shoal of fish.
The Piranha's most vital points were its astonishing biting power and sharp teeth.
Especially when it was in a group, the densely packed formation was difficult to defend against.
However, Alex chose the most clever way to fight. While protecting himself, he also disrupted the formation of the piranhas.
The piranhas alone would not survive for more than two seconds before Alex devoured them.
The piranhas struggled bitterly.
Seeing that Alex was devouring more and more piranhas, the remaining fish formed a sphere and surrounded Alex in the middle, attacking him together.
Alex immediately launched a [ Sudden Impact ], and with a swing of his tail needle, he directly split the final struggling formation of the piranhas into two!
The piranhas had lost their momentum, and Alex entered the shoal of fish as if there was no one there, killing everyone in all directions.
After losing half of their members, the Piranhas finally collapsed. They fled in all directions.
Alex continued to chase after them. With a stab of his tail needle, Alexs pierced through a few piranhas.
However, the piranhas scattered and fled in all directions in the sea. Piranhas were running in every direction, but there were not many of them.
Alex could not be bothered to chase after them. In any case, he had already devoured more than 300 piranhas. If he continued to eat them, the system would decrease the evolution points he gained.
When Alex reached the shore, the river water had also washed away the piranhas' corpses without a trace.
This group of Piranhas had provided Alex with more than 50 evolution points.
"It's a pity that the evolution points gained from devouring the same species will decrease.
Otherwise, I could start the next evolution with this wave." Alex felt a little regretful.
However, this battle not only provided evolution points but also taught Alex not to underestimate the enemy. Moreover, his battle experience had also gotten richer.
Choosing this path was a bloody path. Battle experience and battle awareness were indispensable.
An influential person had to be crushed in terms of strength and consciousness.
Observing the river from the shore, one could not see the rich scenery underwater. The surface of the water was too muddy. Perhaps the sediment stirred up by these species swimming underwater had muddied the surface of the water.
Since he could not see any traces from the shore, Alex decided to try another round in the water while the skill was still active.
Otherwise, when the [Water Resistance] skill's effect disappeared, he would have to wait for a 24-hour cooldown before he could enter the water. That would delay the evolution by another day.
He jumped into the tributary again.
There were fewer fish in the water this time. One of the reasons was the previous devouring.
The most important reason was that the intense battle had scared away the fish nearby.
Alex had only devoured dozens of fish. There were no more creatures nearby.
Alex continued to swim further away. With the help of the Water Resistance skill, he felt more relaxed underwater than on the ground.
As Alex continued to feed, the fish began to escape in large numbers to other tributaries.
However, all the tributaries eventually led to the sea. The sea was destined to be conquered by Alex, so the fish could not escape from his grasp.
"Tomorrow, I'll find a new tributary to devour," Alex thought. "After the next evolution, I will consider entering the sea directly."
At this moment, Alex felt an electric current coming from the water! Even he was shocked and trembled.
