Laws of the Insect Hive

The last moment in my memory is very vague. He seems to be in the ward, and someone is talking about something around him, but he seems to have nothing to do with himself, and his eyes are staring at the clouds outside the window without focus...

"..."

He wanted to open his mouth to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

After that, his vision became dim.

Then after an unknown amount of time, he seemed to have passed through a long darkness and appeared in this strange forest.

...

...

Playing with the soft tentacles on the top of his head with his feet, he lightly raised his hind legs and staggered to the tender leaves of an unknown plant next to him.

Two or three hours have passed since he woke up.

He is not very comfortable with the mosaic-like vision of insect compound eyes, because he can only see a distance of tens of centimeters and the picture is scattered, so the direction after taking off is not always well controlled.

"Am I coming back to life?"

He seemed to have forgotten his original name, but if it was his current body, it should be called System.

...

Species: Green-tailed grasshopper (juvenile)

name: none

Name: System

Rank: none

Grade: 2/15

Special talents/skills: [Numerical Code] (1/1), [Multure Growth] (10/13), [Insect Adaptability] (5/21).

Derivative skills: [Self Information Generation] (1/1), [Insect Intuition] (2/5), [Severed Limb Regeneration] (2/11), [Green Camouflage] (1/4).

...

He didn't know why he was called System, but after using the [Self-Information Generation Technique], this is the name that appeared on the light curtain, so he also called himself that.

[Self-information generation technique] seems to be his instinct, and using it is as natural as raising a foot.

System naturally used this derivative skill when the forest just woke up.

Further click on [Self Information Generation Technique] to display more detailed information.

For example, click on skills and talents, and detailed information on skills and talents will appear.

And if you click on his ethnic details, it will show his current body length and weight, and a few other things.

...

Length: 0.2cm

Weight: 0.01g

...

If the information is accurate, he should now be a grasshopper larva the size of a millet.

The tentacles on the little grasshopper's head swayed back and forth, carefully feeling the breath in the breeze.

Grasshopper larvae are very digestible, and his body will become hungry if he stops eating for a little while.

He moved to the edge of the young leaf and continued to look around. After seeing that there was no danger, he took a bite of the leaf under him.

The texture of this young leaf is very hard and tasteless like wood, it is difficult to make him want to eat it.

System turned his head to look around, jumped to another unknown plant leaf, moved to the edge of the leaf again and observed the surrounding conditions, and then began to eat, this time his insect head showed a satisfied look.

The leaf tasted like a sweet apple to him, and his body seemed to like it.

So he ate it in big mouthfuls.

Since he woke up, his body has been very hungry, as if he can't get enough to eat.

An hour or two ago, after eating the young leaves that were several times the size of its body, his level was raised to level 2.

After the upgrade, his body has grown unscientifically, and his physical fitness has improved in all aspects.

Somewhat similar to playing a game to upgrade, but he is a real existence in flesh and blood, and there seems to be a magical power in his body.

...

[Numerical code] (1/1): Has the ability to quantify and analyze, and improve the growth efficiency. System's inherent talent.

[Moulting Growth] (10/13): Gain the ability to grow further through molting, and molting at levels 5 and 8. Unique talent of some insects.

[Insect Adaptability] (5/21): The unique ability to adapt to the environment, the level can be increased by obtaining food, there is a low probability of mutation when the level is increased, and there is a chance to obtain other talents or derived abilities. The unique talent of insects.

...

If System guessed correctly, the game-like change in his body was due to the [Numerical Code] talent.

It is precisely because of this [numerical code] ability that he has the derivative skill [self-information generation technique], so that he will not know nothing after being reborn as a grasshopper larva.

However, this [numerical code] is completely out of his control. As long as he feels his spirit a little, it is as if he is in a sea of ​​numbers composed of 0 and 1, making his spirit seem to explode.

On the other hand, although he couldn't control the two talents of [Metamorphosis Growth] and [Insect Adaptability], he could clearly feel it, as if it were the flesh and blood of his body.

The former [Metamorphosis and Growth] is like the inheritance in the blood, so he naturally understands how a green-tailed grasshopper larva like him can become an adult green-tailed grasshopper.

The latter [Insect Adaptability] is a mysterious power attached to his bloodline, which he cannot directly feel, but his derived skills [Insect Intuition] and [Regeneration of Amputated Limbs] are because of [Insect Adaptability] ] and exist.

[Severe Leg Regeneration] gave System a feeling that even if his leg was severed, it would regrow in a few days.

As for [insect intuition], it is an ability similar to the sixth sense.

It is precisely because of this sixth sense that he successfully escaped the first crisis in this world.

At that time, he was happily nibbling on the tender leaves under his feet. That unknown tender leaf was the most delicious one that System had eaten after waking up. It tasted like the big cherries in his previous life, which made him feel very happy.

But just as he was addicted to it, his tentacles felt a strange aura, System was wondering, his body trembled involuntarily and jumped up suddenly...

A dead leaf-colored insect with two sickles suddenly crawled out from the back of the leaf. It was about one centimeter in size. It should be a mantis larva. As long as it jumped a little later, it would become the little mantis. delicious meal.

It was precisely because of that crisis that System’s actions after that were much more cautious.

Move to the edge of the leaf every time you eat it, and watch the underside of the leaf carefully for predators such as praying mantises or ants.

And because of that crisis, System recalled some of the contents of "Animal World" in his previous life, and he remembered the strange insect predators in the documentary.

In the insect world, murder is often hidden in peace, and those real crises cannot be avoided even if he has [insect intuition].

Maybe next time he accidentally hit the leaf mantis disguised as a leaf and was directly eaten by prey.

...

Watching the surrounding scene carefully, System kept eating the tender leaves of various plants to relieve his hunger.

As a grasshopper larva, his claws are very soft, and he can only eat the tender leaves and leaf buds of plants, but he is also small in size, and he can eat even a small piece of tender leaves for a long time.

Just like that, after System ate leaves three or four times his weight again, he leveled up again.

After a while of numbness, its body got bigger again.

Although its body continued to grow during the process of eating, it grew from 0.2 cm to 0.3 cm in a few hours, but after the level was upgraded to level 3, his body shape changed more obviously, and it grew directly from 0.3 cm. to 0.5 cm.

And because of the upgrade, his [Insect Adaptability] (5/21) became [Insect Adaptation] (6/21); [Green Camouflage] (1/4) became [Green Camouflage] (2/4).

The improvement of [Insect Adaptability] is not very clear to System, but the upgrade of [Green Camouflage] has made System's body undergo obvious changes, the color of his body is more emerald green, and the leaf veins on his body The patterns are more clear and realistic.

………………

ps:

In order to avoid unnecessary comments to slap the face, the author publishes some common sense at the end of the first chapter.

All bugs have blood and a heartbeat.

Grasshoppers are herbivorous insects, but they also eat meat, and even their own kind when necessary.

The larvae of grasshoppers are not actually called larvae, they are called nymphs. The larvae are just the names of completely metamorphic insects after hatching from their eggs. Here, for the convenience of readers, they are collectively called larvae.

In addition, most of the insects such as locusts and crickets will molt 5 times, but in this magical world, the author sets 2 molts for the locusts, so don't argue with the author.
