Eliot only glanced through the 5 options presented to him once but that moment was enough for a few thoughts and considerations to go through his head. ‘The Wolf Diving Bell Spider evolved form…’ ‘A Wolf Spider is a spider that hunts using speed by outrunning its prey. Mixing this with my already known properties of a Diving Bell Spider, there’s a high chance that the magic affinity I’ll get is wind or something related’. ‘At this moment, I’m cornered inside the wide hole, no amount of speed is enough for me to shrug off the Piranhas and escape’. ‘What I need is power, not speed’. He evaluated his other options. ‘The Jumping Bell Spider evolved form…’ ‘Jumping Spiders have crazy jumping abilities, and that’s how they hunt. I’m not sure but the Jumping Bell Spider will likely give me a magic affinity also related to wind, it’s not what I need’. ‘The Diving Black Widow Spider…’ ‘If I was not cornered by aggressive Piranhas that were after my head, this is the form I’ll 100% choo
[You have activated Magic Skill: Metal Gaze!]“…”“…”“…..”The metal gaze magic ability’s main effect was in intimidating enemies but during that moment that he used it, Eliot learned another use for this ability.Activating the metal gaze increased his concentration exponentially.At this moment, with total silence in his surroundings, Eliot activated the metal gaze. All 8 of his eyes focused as he observed his surroundings, while silently listening for any sound that would betray the presence of any prowling predator.It was already weeks ago but he still could not forget the moment that the Electric Eel charged in to assassinate the powerful sea snake.That moment taught him to never be complacent no matter how powerful he became in the future; this was the reason why he double checked now. Eliot checked for 10 minutes before he finally relaxed.‘Phew…, I really survived’. Eliot could hardly believe it.The past few minutes of his life were the most dangerous that he had ever exp
9 hours after the battle of the Piranha Fish, the lair of the Swordfish clan… After finally relaxing from the adrenaline induced by that narrow escape from the Piranha Fish and his evolution, Eliot left the location of that hole, finding another location and digging a hole before sleeping. He was spent, he needed to rest to feel recharged again. Eliot slept for over 8 hours and after waking up, he finally decided to take his new body on a discovery journey to know his current limits and capabilities. ‘Let’s see if after evolution, I’m truly at that level already’. ‘Let’s see if I can now be counted as one of the apex predators of the Thunder Reef just like the evolved Piranhas and the Electric Eel’. His discovery journey started and it was straightforward. Brimming with confidence, Eliot did not take any detours as he went on a rampant hunt for prey. Any fish that he met did not survive the encounter, they sacrificed their lives in his quest to determine how powerful he currentl
It was already 2 days since Elliot became an evolved spider.Since then, he remained in his Diving Bell Huntsman Spider form as he appreciated the feeling of safety and confidence that it gave him more than anything any of his other remaining forms could.After hunting the family of Swordfish, validating his power as an apex predator of the Thunder Reef, Elliot no longer held himself back.Like a voyager, he went on a voyage round this reef.He wanted to fully scout the Thunder Reef to create a map of it and most importantly, to know the rivals that he had in this region.As for his first targets, he wanted to know and meet the apex predators of the Eastern border of the Thunder Reef first to determine the danger at home.Having met 3 of these apex predators already and watching as the Venom Hydrophis Spiralis was assassinated by the powerful Electric Eel, Elliot set his first targets as the family of 5 Piranha Fish and the Electric Eel.As for his fish school though, he was not worri
[Congratulations! You have finally left your starting point region!][You have discovered a new region: Southern border of the Thunder Reef!][You have been rewarded with Discovery Points and XP!][NOTE: Your amount of Discovery Points (DP) determines your experience as an explorer, and it determines your ability to unearth hidden locations across the world of Utopia in the future.]The Southern border of the Thunder Reef was not that different from the Eastern border, the most glaring difference was the color and tone change.Unlike in the Eastern border where the coral reefs were fresh and colorful, in here, there were only red and orange colored coral reefs.And the temperature here was hot, really hot, making it more comfortable for fish and water beasts who had an affinity for fire to live in.Elliot’s first instinct on arriving here was to look for the source of the heat.It didn’t take him long, just a few minutes after his arrival before he discovered it, there was a small act
Elliot finally embarked on his return journey.The journey back to the Eastern border of the Thunder Reef was far simple than his first journey where he had the important task of scouting for rivals. This time, with his strength, it was pretty straightforward.He didn’t need to take any detours.[You have killed a Steel Armor Crab!][You have gained XP!]And of course, what was a journey in the world of Utopia if it didn’t involve hunting casually for food? Hunting was the secret ingredient.Swimming back to the Eastern border of the Thunder Reef, Elliot could not help it as a few thoughts and observations went through his mind.Since more than 4 days ago after he finally consumed the Single Species Evolution Orb, evolving and becoming a Diving Bell Huntsman Spider, despite his increased hunting efficiency, he was yet to level up even once since then.This led Elliot to come to a conclusion. ‘Leveling up is harder now!’‘And if I’m not wrong, after evolving, killing lesser evolved bea
After the raid on the lair of the Goliath Tigerfish clan, the overall level of the Salmon Fish school upgraded as 20 Salmon Fish were now level 5. This was a level that already made them eligible to become department commanders. As for the remaining 13 fish in the clan, they were now all level 4. “First, we need to reshuffle the distribution of fish in the 3 departments”. [Snooping Tool Activated!] Using the snooping tool, Elliot snooped through the newly updated status of every single one of the now level 5 Salmon Fish of the clan. Of the new level 5 fish, 5 of them caught his attention. Brother Bonkers was no longer the fastest Salmon Fish in the clan despite being level 5 now too. Another fish that was yet to get a name, only known as brother was now the fastest Salmon fish in the clan. Elliot singled him out first. “From today, you are no longer just brother”. “I have recognized your talent and I will reward you for it”. “Congratulations, you are now the Vice Commander of
[You have killed an evolved Rage Piranha Fish!] [You have gained XP!] … [You have fulfilled the requirements to level up!] [You have leveled up!] [Congratulations! You are now a level 6 Diving Bell Huntsman Spider!] [Your attributes have increased…] … [Your power has increased by 7] [Your speed has increased by 5] [Your mind has increased by 3] [Your toughness has increased by 5] [Your luck has increased by 2] [Your health points have increased by 10] … Unlike when he was still an unevolved Diving Bell Spider, the increase to his attributes this time was much more ridiculous and he felt it physically. Elliot could tell immediately that he was faster. Not just that, he felt that his 8 legs were sturdier and in terms of his power, he felt stronger than he felt just a second ago. The effects of a level up clearly improved massively with his evolution. Despite feeling on top of the world as he felt his power surge, Elliot did not let it get to his head, this was because
