Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 1469: A Tanky Evolution And New Skills!

FLUOOOSH!

The moment I picked the evolution option, my entire body began to explode with chaotic energy. The chaotic energy was vicious, devouring all the plant life in my surroundings, and any other unfortunate animal or monster that might be roaming around… The darkness was strong and it was like a poisonous miasma, eating away everything as I felt my own body grow larger than before, yes, even larger.

My body quickly began to change, the interior of the cocoon turned even more into liquid, which hurt. It felt as if I was melting at an even more faster degree. Was I going to die? It felt as if I was going to die. The agony was rather big, and it made my Pain Resistance Skill activate several times constantly, even leveling up…

I felt several layers of metal material grow over my own cocoon exterior, reinforcing my defenses to even more insane degrees.

And when I woke up, I found myself being around five meters big. Wow, I am big. My cocoon has the same shape as before, if not even more frightening as I don\'t only have countless spikes covering me, but there are a three pairs of weird spider-like legs… Well, this helps at moving, so I don\'t have to destroy everything through Rolling nor I have to waste MP through Telekinesis by floating.

My dark purple metallic exterior became even darker than before, but there were now sharp red points in each of my spikes, leaking a deadly toxin… I guess now I am even poisonous! Oh, and this as well… I felt a strange phantasmal aura around my body, as I began to manipulate it, it slowly started to move to my will. It seems that the Phantasmal Powers of this evolution are there, more present than ever.

I immediately looked into my stats after evolving, they had increased rather nicely and they all looked quite evenly now as well, which felt really good to the eyes… I also acquired 50 Stat Points and 50 Skill Points as a Bonus after evolving, now that\'s new! I didn\'t remember this happening in my previous evolution. It must be some sort of new bonus I get after evolving now… Which is all welcomed to be honest, the more points the better for me.

A few skills leveled up through the process of evolution as well, and Pain Resistance went all the way to Level 4… Well, I guess that\'s a thing. I need to grind more Resistance Skills if possible, I might use Purification on myself to get Light element Resistance, and perhaps even Wind and also Ice Magic I already have. If I just bathe myself in constant agonizing torture, I might be able to gain more resistance skills and become even more invincible, I like the sound of it, honestly!

Anyways, I had four new skills to see their juicy details, so I immediately went to look for their summary and descriptions.

-----

[Phantasmal Aura: Lv1]

Skill Proficiency: 0/10000

An innate power that phantasmal entities possess, it allows the capability of creating and manipulating an aura of pure phantom, which is semi-transparent and can pass through any physical object. It can be strengthened and even materialized through the infusion of Mana, so it can hold things easily. It is also capable of self-dividing into many limbs. The skill level enhances the power of the phantom aura and how much it can materialize.

Huh, the description is just what I had expected this to be. I quickly decided to use the Skill right away through the System\'s interface abilities, and quickly found out that the phantasmal aura began to shape into an arm, a claw, which I materialized partially on the tip of each claws, and then used them to carry a log in the floor. It was rather easy, then I decided to carry a giant rock, it was easy again, and then, I decided to detach 10 meters of ground from the floor and carry it, it was possible as well. Hm, I wonder if this phantasmal aura calculates Intelligence or Strength for its lifting power? Or both? It cannot be purely MP, as I don\'t feel any fluctuation on its requirements even when lifting very heavy things.
