Marcus remembered the snake that bit him, it was painful so he adds 2 points to the defense, and the last one goes to the attack. After deciding on where to spend the points the cold voice rang again.

A feeling of power appeared, and the dark flesh was hardened if the snake bites him again it would not break it.

Marcus saw the biological energy needed was huge, but he was powerful now so what is he afraid of?

Marcus continued to walk and soon found a frog, the taste of the frog is not good but when I eat the rabbit and snake it was delicious!

he guesses everything he ate would be delicious, he slowly crept into the direction of the frog.

The grass that reached his waist was moving, the frog didn't notice the pair of cold eyes behind it.

Marcus calmed himself and was about to jump when the grass not far away from it move!

The movement was fast like there was a creature running, the frog was surprised before jumping far away.

Marcus's eyes didn't look good, the frog was his prey yet someone disturbs it. Who is it?

After a few seconds, that creature revealed itself, it was not one, or two but it is a pack of coyotes!

A feeling of danger started to grow in Marcus's heart, the coyote is a carnivorous animal. With his current strength, he would die.

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

Marcus watched them as they played around, while he was thinking about them the voice of the system rang.

. . .

Marcus's eyes were wide, five coyotes were 100 points of biological energy! Greed started to tempt him but he shakes his head.

When he saw the fangs of the coyote he felt his back was cold, he slowly backed away, and after a few minutes did he heave a sigh of relief.

"I can't deal with four, but if one then I may have a chance."

Marcus thought to himself, he looked around and started to wander in the forest. The grass will cover the vision of small animals, but Marcus could see and that was the reason he was shocked.

The sight was endless, few large trees were standing tall and the flies were flying everywhere. If he was weak maybe he would die here.

When this thought appeared, Marcus slowly walked forward. He needs biological energy to grow stronger, his defense was strong and his attack was also strong.

Even when his speed reaches 0.4 he was still cautious, most predators do not rely on speed to catch prey, they relied on the element of surprise!

After a few hours of walking, Marcus could hardly see the cave, but he can see the outline of it. He decided to not get far away from it, after thinking this he began to head back.

Swish!

A shadow figure suddenly leaped towards him, Marcus raised his hand and the sharp pain was registered into his brain, but compared to the sharp pain earlier, this one was still endurable!

Marcus stared at the figure and immediately knew it was a snake!

[ 10 points of biological energy ]

The cold voice of the system rang in his mind, Marcus stared at this black snake, the length was ten meters!

It started to entangled him and the pressure started to build in his body.

"Ah!"

Marcus screamed, the pressure was no joke! He knew this black snake is a python. Fortunately, his defense was strong, or else his bones would break in front of this pressure.

Open your mouth and bite it!

Marcus's waist was wrapped by the python, his only advantage in this situation is his other hand. He grabs the body that was wrapping his waist and started to pinch it!

The skin of the python was surprisingly tough, even when he punched it there were still no good results.

The familiar feeling was born, Marcus knew this feeling. It was despair!

"Want to eat me? The price is not low!"

Marcus's eyes flashed with killing intent as he started to run, then in front of him was the large tree.

Bang!

Marcus crashed into the large tree, the python that was wrapped in his body started to hiss.

Marcus repeated his actions of banging his body to the large tree, the body of the python on his waist started to show blood.

Blood flowed and when Marcus saw the meat inside, he used his other hand to grab it and stretch it!

Hiss!

The python was in pain, the body wrapping around Marcus started to unloose. Marcus grabs the opportunity and started to eat the meat of the python.

The meat transformed into warm energy and it headed in his injured body.

The dark flesh that was compressed and explodes was recovering at speed visible to the naked eye.

Swallow!

Marcus grab the python to prevent it from escaping and started to eat the body.

Blood dyed the ground around them and the python finally died, Marcus still eats the corpse and swallowed it. After a few minutes, the entire python was swallowed!

[ Biological energy 13/30 ]

The cold voice of the system rang, Marcus sat beside the tree which was covered in blood. This battle taught him something, in this forest even if you are stronger there is still something that can threaten you!

Marcus waited for his body to recovered before standing up, he walked towards the cave and the roars of the wild beast in the distance were still alive.

After a few hours, Marcus entered the cave and sat on the ground. He stared at the forest and the millions of star that was sparking.

"I need to get stronger, I don't want to die."

Marcus thought to himself before staring at the forest.

. . .

The sun rises and the golden light enveloped the forest, cold-blooded animals such as snakes were common, they were bathed in the sun. The birds were also lively as they sang.

Marcus stared at the sun, his heart somehow started to beat wildly. When the golden light fell on his forearm a burning pain appeared!

"Ah!"

Marcus moved backward and stared at the golden light on the ground, this light which gave some creatures warmth gave him a dangerous vibe!

"The sun is my weakness."

Marcus thought, he slowly moves backward while thinking that the day belongs to those animals while the night belongs to him!
