Who Said A Mosquito Can’t Cultivate? - Chapter 30
Ding!
‘You have successfully killed a Brave Rock Giralephant!’
‘You have obtained a Bloodlust Point.’
‘You have obtained 105 points of Impure Blood Energy from killing this creature.’
Man, even though this is the third time I’ve killed this chimera, and probably the sixth time I’ve used the Quintuple Needle Pierce and Paralysis Imbuement+ combination, I still can’t help but be amazed at the power the combination shows.
Anyways, I shouldn’t waste more time since I still have to find an animal to suck blood from to increase my constitution to finally raise my stat to 1. But then again, it’s been like 3 days since I’ve been in this world, so there’s still a lot of time for me to take everything easy.
Poke. Slurp. Succ.
Hmm…now that I think about it, don’t mosquitoes on Earth only live for around 30 to 50 days? Wait…does this rule also apply to myself as well? And does that also mean…I’ve already used up 10 percent of my life sucking blood and raising my constitution?!
Well…blood is delicious, while raising constitution is still needed since that would allow me to cultivate, and cultivation would allow me to live longer.
BUT WHAT IF IT DOESN’T?!
Does that mean I’ve wasted my time getting stronger for nothing? Well…not really. Take deep breaths, Bell. There’s no point in panicking over your short life. Just live life like you’re gonna die tomorrow.
Okay, that didn’t really help at all.
Anyways, after sucking this immortal giralephant for the third time, I had around 3900 points of blood inside my storage, only around 100 or so remaining before I maxed my storage out. Would I go kill the giralephant one more time before upgrading my physique? Nah. That would possibly waste more of my time…or does it? Bah, stop overthinking Bell.
Ding!
‘3000 points of Impure Blood Energy has been consumed.’
‘Eyes (1/3) -> (2/3)’
‘Antennae (1/3) -> (2/3)’
‘Proboscis (1/3) -> (2/3)’
‘Torso (1/3) -> (2/3)’
‘Wings (1/3) -> (2/3)’
‘Limbs (1/3) -> (2/3)’
The second level of my physique costed around 500 points per part, which was also the original price of the first level of my physique. I wonder how much points I would need if I did not evolve Blood Transfer to the second evolution tier?
Anyways, after upgrading my parts to the second level, it was now time to aim for the final level of the physique. After that, evolve it to the next physique level after Inferior. Man, now that I realize it, my life is very monotonous. Suck and upgrade. Suck and upgrade. Fight, suck, and upgrade.
Ding!
‘You have successfully killed a Brave Rock Giralephant.’
‘You have obtained a Bloodlust Point.’
‘You have obtained 101 points of Impure Blood Energy from killing this creature.’
And this makes it my fourth kill of this immortal giralephant. I would need to kill this chimera 3 more times to max out the parts for my physique, and then possibly need to kill the chimera one or two more times to let the physique evolve.
Poke. Slurp.
Now that I look at it, although the giralephant has over a thousand points of blood stored inside its body, I’m still able to suck all of that in a matter of minutes, seconds even. Hmm…after I upgrade my physique, I should probably focus on my blood sucking efficiency for a while, reducing the amount of time needed to absorb blood. Would that allow me to have more time for finding animals to suck?
More or less, yes.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
As the rock cube glowed faint blue one more time, this faint blue glow made its way towards the emaciated and bone dry giralephant, gradually repairing the gruesome wound I made on its excretory area. What? I’m trying to make this process less monotonous, okay?
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A few seconds later, the giralephant was standing like it used to beside the rock cube, exuding an aura of vitality and power as it just stood there, acting as the cube’s guardian beast.
At this point in time, I could not help but pity this giralephant. Why? It’s because it has become my blood bank of sorts. Now you might be wondering, Bell, you’ve sucked a lot of blood from a ton of animals before, so why are you feeling bad for this one?
That’s because, those animals die once, but this giralephant has already died for the fourth time. Ain’t I creating traumas for this giralephant, bringing it memories filled with pain and torment? Well…some steamy times as well like that time I hit it on its baby maker. It made a weird moaning sound as I did it.
Okay, back to the topic. To change it up this time, I utilized the Long Ass Needle Sweep and Paralysis Imbuement+ combo, basically cutting the giralephant into two parts. What are those two parts? The head and neck made up the first part, while the remaining body parts made up the second part.
Fssshhhh!!!
Of course, it was unavoidable for blood to spurt out, with such a large hole for blood to come out of. I hastily sucked all of the blood from the two parts, increasing my storage by around 1200 points once more.
Weeenggg…weennggg…
And with that, it was time to wait for the cube to revive this giralephant for the uh…one, two, three…sixth time.
To pass the time, I took a gander at the rock cube, with it still glowing a faint blue glow-
Eh? What’s happening?
Whoosh!
All of a sudden, this faint blue glow surrounding the rock cube…disappeared without a trace. Uh…did I use up the rock cube’s energy reserves or something? And does that mean this giralephant can’t revive again?
Well…I guess there goes my idea of maxing out my physique. Then again, this giralephant was able to make a decent dent on my physique’s progress, so I can’t say it wasn’t fruitless.
Weeennggg…weenggg…
Hm?
As I started to fly away from the rock cube and the giralephant corpse, black strands of whatever it could be started to manifest around the surroundings of the rock cube. Not long after, these black strands were then absorbed by the rock cube, with the rock cube emanating an ominous feeling a few seconds later.
Whoosh!
With the sound of wind breaking, a faint red glow started to radiate out of the rock cube, a great contrast to the faint blue it was radiating before. Oh boy, I smell something bad…and it’s not the chimera corpse. The color red definitely screams danger and bad shit, I hope I don’t make the cube self-destruct.
Rumble…
Oh shit, the ground is trembling. Am I jinxing this? Is the rock cube seriously going to self-destruct? Well, if it self-destructs, I won’t be affected since I’m a decent distance away from the cube. Remember that I flew away from the corpse after knowing that the giralephant wouldn’t revive one more time, off to find some animal to succ from.
Weeenngggg….weeengggg…
But even though I said I was going to find some animal to succ from, I hovered in place, my sight was fixated on the rock cube that was glowing faint red. Oh wait, it’s now crimson red after the ground trembled for a while. Anyways, the reason as to why I didn’t leave yet was because of curiosity. Was it going to self-destruct? I won’t know if I don’t see.
Whoosh!
Just as I thought that the cube was going to self-destruct as the trembling intensified, the crimson red glow around the rock cube disappeared in an instant, like the faint blue glow from before.
…
Is this some sort of joke by the rock cube or something? Is the red glow actually a stronger type of energy for healing the chimera? Hmm…that could be that case.
Buzz…
And with that, I started to fly back to where the giralephant’s corpse was, waiting for the red energy to come out once more to heal the giralephant so I could suck more blood from it.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t going to happen.
Bang!
Out of nowhere, a red sphere manifested on top of the rock cube, radiating the same crimson red glow from the rock cube as before. Not even a nanosecond later, this red sphere shot itself to where I was, engulfing my body in red light as I…
Soft thud.
Fell to the ground as a lifeless mosquito corpse beside the giralephant corpse.
Now, how do I know this? Well…uh…how do I explain this?
Out of body experience. For some reason, only my mosquito body was hit by the red sphere, leaving my soul unscathed. Is there some sort of reason as to why this was the case?
Thankfully, my question was answered not long after.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
After what seemed to be a long amount of time, a white room started to manifest around me as my soul took on the shape of my current mosquito body, even gaining the colors of it. Hey, shouldn’t souls have no color? Well, I really can’t say for sure if souls truly do not have color. Either way, I was now a mosquito inside a white room by the looks of it.
So…am I trapped in this white room forever? Is there an exit out of this place? Can I go back to my body beside the giralephant corpse?
Buzz…
I started to fly around the white room, hoping that the white room had a sort of wall to hit. Unfortunately, even after flying for a long while, I could not reach any wall whatsoever, making me realize that this room, even though the manifestation made it seem small, was actually incredibly huge.
“Haah…” As I was flying along the vast white space, a voice’s sigh resounded throughout the white space, making me stop due to the slight surprise it brought.
Does that mean…I’m not actually alone in this white space? Well, that’s great. As I was about to ask who this voice was and where it came from, the voice resounded one more time.
“To think that a puny mosquito got my inheritance. Me, the great Forbidden Chimera Sect leader! Have none of my disciples survived that war? Or have they forgotten the fact that my inheritance existed?” The voice started to mutter to itself, its tone of speaking quite deep yet gentle.
Wait a second…inheritance? I actually got into the rock cube’s inheritance?! Does this mean…this voice is the maker of the inheritance?! But by the looks of it, it’s disappointed that a mosquito has gotten its inheritance. I couldn’t blame the voice, I’d be disappointed if a mosquito got my inheritance as well.
Not long after that monologue, the voice let out a sigh, a feeling of being looked at enveloping my body not long after.
“Then again, you’re no ordinary mosquito, being a Rank 3 Mosquito at that. If only you started cultivating, then I could possibly accept you as a formal inheritor,” the voice said to me, while at the same time, it felt like it was talking to itself.
“Anyways, since I don’t know where my disciples are, I guess you’ll do for now, mosquito.”
“I am the 3rd sect leader of the Forbidden Chimera Sect, also known as the Harbinger of Destruction. Well…I’m also your master from now on.”
“At this point in time, I am now dead, only with a small part of my soul remaining in this inheritance. I cannot guide you, but I can give you goals and resources to help you become stronger. But most importantly, to help me exact revenge for the Forbidden Chimera Sect.”
“Listen to my next words very well, for I shall not repeat it twice.”
“My true name is…Jeff.”
“Uh…”
“Now that I think about it, this isn’t really important at all.”
“Welcome to the inheritance, mosquito inheritor…I guess.”
“…”
I…nevermind.
