Chapter 03: Switching To An Alternative Food Source_Evolve & Adapt ~ An Evolutionary Tale of a Simple Ghostly Tadpole Sudden Rise to Strength and Power via Devouring Others

Chapter 03: Switching To An Alternative Food Source

oOo

Without a need for further deliberation, I then immediately picked the {Short Boney Spike Tadpol Dorsal Fin} body modification mutation body part option of the list of choices.

The World System then immediately recognises my mental voice input command, as I then immediately receive the {Short Boney Spike Tadpole Dorsal Fin} body modification body part, without as much as receiving a tad bit or any kind of sorts of any sort of difficulties or complications after receiving the body modification mutation body part.

World System Message

You have chosen the body modification mutation body part {Short Boney Spike Tadpole Dorsal Fin} as your free upgrade. You have acquired the body modification mutation body part {Short Boney Spike Tadpole Dorsal Fin [0/10]}!

The body modification mutation body part {Short Boney Spike Tadpole Dorsal Fin} is a tier 2 fortification upgrade, thereby it steadily costs 2 Biogrowth Points for each singular fortification upgrade!

Since you have chosen the body modification mutation body part {Short Boney Spike Tadpole Dorsal Fin} as your free upgrade. The alternative option {Short Tadpole Flagelum Tail Spike} body modification mutation body part will thereby be locked for now, until further notice, and it will cost 10 Biogrowth Points to actually unlock it for it to be useable!

Immediately after the World System having successfully added the body modification mutation body part {Short Boney Spike Tadpole Dorsal Fin} towards my list of potential body modification upgrades, I could then immediately feel a sudden jolt of electricity and somewhat of a bone crackling noise, as the soft developing back-spine and the tail bone of my infantile stage ghostly tadpole body is then shifted, rearranged, and slightly altered by the World System's modifications.

As numerous sharp but small short boney protrusions then immediately began to sprout outwards from the soft developing back spine bone of my ghostly tadpole body, and through the semi-transparent top dorsal fin of my ghostly tadpole tail.

And now, with the whole free body modification mutation body part being completed, I then immediately return backwards towards grinding for some more Biogrowth Points and experience points by steadily consuming the mother frog jelly within my surroundings.

° ° °

Another thirty or so minutes later, I then steadily consume another batch of about 500 grams more of the plentiful mother frog jelly, which certainly equates to about 5 Biogrowth Points and 5 experience points as a whole.

*Ding!*

I then immediately heard the familiarised sounds of the World System's message notification steadily ringing withinside my own head, as a blue holographic display screen interface panel then later appeared in front of me, thereby showing me my current rate of progress and growth.

World System Message You have consumed 10 grams of Frog Jelly. It has steadily been converted into 0.1 Biogrowth Points by the World System! * * * You have consumed enough Frog Jelly for your {Small Tadpole Stomach} to then convert it into experience points.

The moment that I saw the familiar levelled up World System Message notification screen showed up, I then immediately opened up my own personal Status Screen board panel to see if there were any immediate changes made towards my attribute stats and skills after levelling up.

After going through my entire Status Screen board panel, I then immediately noticed that my Agility and Dexterity attributed stats has actually been increased by a grand total of one full stats point. Thanks to the bonus stats growth modifier after upgrading the body modification body part {Small Tadole Tail} to maxed fortification upgrade level.

And also, I also noticed that my Defense attribute stats has now increased by a total of 0.2 attribute stats points, instead of the usual 0.1. It must probably be because of my recently acquired body modification mutation body part {Short Boney Spike Tadpole Dorsal Fin} that I've steadily got after upgrading my {Small Tadpole Tail} body modification body part to maxed fortification.

('Oh, that is quite interesting.') I thought so to myself, as I then immediately returned backwards to nonstop eating the mother frog jelly.

I chose not to immediately spend all of the accumulated Biogrowth Points that I've steadily amassed through the nonstop eating of the mother frog jelly within the pond or lake water, as something that is akin to a naked feeling is somewhat telling me to instead saved it up for some kind of unknown purpose.

° ° °

*Ding!*

The amount of mother frog jelly withinside the pond or lake water has begun to drastically decrease over time, as more hatched newborn ghostly tadpoles have begun to steadily consume it at an astronomical rate.

With the growing shortage of mother frog jelly which is the newborn ghostly tadpoles' main actual food source. Some of the newborn ghostly tadpoles have begun switching on over towards alternative food sources, like pond algae, duckweed, and plant moss that steadily grows upon the surface of ponds and lake water.

With I'm being amongst the very few newborn ghostly tadpoles out of the freshly hatched batch that immediately migrated on over towards eating pond algae and duckweed after having realised the shortage of mother frog jelly.

However, there is said to be a few minority of the hatched newborn ghostly tadpoles, which are said to be not quite normal in a way, instead of choosing to switch on over towards pond algae and duckweed which are plentiful and steadily grow on the surface of ponds and lake water. They then steadily resolved themselves by going the more carnivorous and predatory way, by hunting and preying upon their own kind.

It first starts off as some newborn hatched ghostly tadpole having killed and then steadily devouring the unhatched batch of ghostly tadpole eggs. And after steadily developing a taste for fresh live aquatic meat, they then began to steadily hunt and kill more members of their own kin. Whilst, developing the necessary basic hunting skills and the abilities to then prey upon water fly larvaes and pond/lake water fishes.

*Ding!*

I then heard the familiarised sounds of the World System's message notification steadily ringing withinside my own head, as a blue holographic display screen interface panel then later appeared in front of me.

World System Message You have consumed 50 grams of Pond Algae. It has steadily been converted into 0.1 Biogrowth Points by the World System! * * * You have consumed enough Pond Algae for your {Small Tadpole Stomach} to then convert it into experience points. You have gained 1 experience point! You have 7.7 Unused Biogrowth Points available!

World System Message You have consumed 30 grams of Duckweed. It has steadily been converted into 0.1 Biogrowth Points by the World System! You have consumed enough Duckweed for your {Small Tadpole Stomach} to then convert it into experience points. You have gained 1 experience point! You have 8.7 Unused Biogrowth Points available!

It was then that I suddenly came to a sudden realization, and then something clicked withinside my own head. ('Why didn't I immediately realise it a bit sooner, but the more highly nutritional the value of the food is upon consumption. The more easier it is to gained experience points and Biogrowth Points than to readily consume lesser nutritional value foods.')

*Ding!*

World System Message

For correctly guessing and making an accurate assumption of how the monster world's system of determining basic experience value for consuming other creatures and life forms. And it does not include the process of taking another monster creature or life form's life in order to gained experience points!

You have instead gained 1 Intelligence attribute stats point!

('Interesting...') I thought so to myself, whilst starting at the most recent World System Message notification screen panel that immediately popped up in front of me.

But, nevertheless, I then immediately began the long hours of consuming pond algae and duckweed, on and off, in order to grind for some experience points so that I may possibly levelled up. And also, in the process, steadily amassed and accumulated a large amount of Biogrowth Points so that I may used it suddenly in a desperate endeavour to then immediately escape from some sudden dangerous situations or hungry predators.
