Chapter 49 Organ Tasting!!!
Lenny roared at the Insects as they did him.
A few hours later, the last of the praying mantis laid beneath his feet.
It gave low screeching noises. Lenny had cut off both of its piecers.
He did not need to know the language of the Chimera ants before he knew that the creature was begging for its life.
However, he did not care. He stabbed it right in its compound eyes.
Lenny swayed a little. all around laid the parts of different Praying mantis.
Limbs here and there. A compound Eye here and another there.
His body was soaked in the foul smell of their yellow liquid and his own blood from cuts littered about his body.
he was tired and really wanted to rest, but there was something he really needed to do first.
Using the piercers tied to his forearms, he torn open the abdomen of the beasts before him.
This was not at all an easy task. These things had very tough Carapace.
He had to put in a lot of effort in this.
Lenny had always been a favored student of anatomy for the longest time in his life.
He had effectively dissected more creatures than even a surgeon could boast.
However, in opening this creatures body, a lot of things looked foreign to him.
But then again, it would not be fun if he could not discover new things. π·πΉβ΄πΏπ.π¬πΈπ
He continued with his research.
the reason for this was quite simple.
After eating the Cotton worm and getting its ability of Petrification, Lenny wanted to see if he was going to get any other ability if he ate these things.
inside the Prey mantis looked like a terrible mixture of over boiled oats and yellow custard.
It was very unappealing to look at. In fact, it was most disgusting.
But Lenny was not blessed with the option of being picky.
With the knowledge he had in Anatomy, he quickly traced what he thought were important organs.
He used a Carapace that he had peeled from the body of the creature as a tray for carrying this important organs.
One such thing was the brain, what looked like the heart and then the trachea.
As Lenny worked, he was tempted to try them out here.
However, he understood that the faster he left this place, the better.
Ant’s generally had a good senses.
Definitely, the smell of the fluids of the creatures he had just killed was going to attract more of their kind.
At the state he was in, he really did not want to encounter any more of them.
He quickly did the same thing for two other corpses before taking his tray and heading back to the safe zone.
The journey going back was also not so easy.
but he had to do it,
He finally made it to the safe zone with the cotton worm around that were ever at work.
<Congratulations, Daily Quest Passed>
<Congratulations! Daily Quest Passed>
<+5 Exp>
<+1 Agility>
<+1 Strength>
<Congratulations! Bonus points>
<+5 Exp for fresh kill>
The system gave him the alerts the moment he got into the safe Zone.
Lenny lay on the ground and panted heavily. However, he could still feel as the points from the Satan system flowed through his body and made him stronger.
In his Tired state, it was like the water of life to every muscle in his body.
Till this moment, Lenny was naked, but a person at the edge of instinctual survival could really care less about dignity.
He stank but he could really care less.
Lenny gave a low laugh. This feeling was truly a wonderful one.
he could practically feel his strength improve every time he completed the tasks assigned.
truly, the Satan system was a gift from Lucifer.
“He must truly think highly of me!” Lenny whispered to himself.
Through his tiredness, he forced himself up as he pulled the tray of unappetizing Preying Mantis guts before him.
There were a few things that lenny wanted to experiment on.
for example, he knew that anytime he killed a kind of creature for the first time, the system rewarded him with bonus points.
And then he also knew that he could acquire the ability of a creature if he ate its meat.
Lenny picked what resembled the brain of the praying Mantis and threw it inside his mouth.
This one gave a sour taste but he persevered and chowed on it before swallowing.
And then he waited for the Alert from the system.
However, it did not come.
“Maybe I need to eat some more,” he thought to himself.
He ate the brains but it was not enough.
he moved over to the other organs. He ate the trachea.
The moment it touched his tongue, Lenny wished he had never been born with a sense of Taste.
It was like he was eating bitter green leave with a mixture of Cinnamon and sour tea.
It made his insides cringe terribly.
For the first time in his life, he felt the deep seated need to Cut off his own tongue.
To make matters worse, the senses of Half-borns was more sensitive than normal humans.
After being a normal Human in his former life, he could tell that this was true.
His sense of taste dissected the organ in his mouth, capturing every bitter enchantment that it could cast.
Lenny coughed as he held back the urge to vomit.
It was around this time, that a Cotton worm passed in front of him.
He had to bite down hard on his tongue to prevent himself from rushing at the Cotton worm.
He frowned tightly and then he rushed at the remaining organs in front of him.
Finally, he took the last bite.
However, unfortunately, there was still no alert.
He looked at the next organ.
This one looked like noodles but was clearly the intestines. He forced himself to eat it.
However, he had only placed it in his mouth when in noticed a particular organ on the tray.
Even though the creatures were dead, this particular organ still beat like a drum…
