Chrysalis
Chapter 77
I’ve finally done it.... FINALLY!
I played the patient game, minimised my risks, limited my exposure and it slowed me down for sure but I’ve finally reached this point. I’ve been so tempted! Gandalf knows how tempted I’ve been! I could have just dashed out of the tunnels and into the forest, battling monsters with reckless abandon!
It would have been glorious, a sea of battle and endless challenge. Only a true monster would be able to rise above that struggle to evolve, this the choice of the brave, the bold and the courageous!
Also the choice of the idiot!
I, Anthony, am not an idiot! The proof is in the pudding! I am alive and I have reached level ten without drawing unwanted attention to myself or putting the colony at risk! Who could possibly argue that I made the wrong decision?
Bwahahahaha!
Honestly I’m extremely delighted right now.
Tiny is giving me a look of betrayal, as if I’d stolen candy straight from his hands. Are you that addicted to kill stealing from me you cheeky monkey?!
Cheer up Tiny, we are going to have plenty of Biomass for the moment!
As pumped as I am to evolve we have to deal with everything in order, things must be in their proper place before evolution can occur. For now we have an enormous bear worth of Biomass that we need to deal with.
For starters, this bear is so damn big we can’t just drag it down into the tunnel in one piece so the unpleasant task of butchery falls to me. Thankfully now that the monster is no longer alive its unnatural toughness is somewhat reduced, so despite being rough going I eventually manage to get all of the food down into the tunnel. Then I take a few more moments to reset the cover for the pitfall.
Down in the tunnels Tiny is already drooling all over himself, ready to start cramming his face. There is so much food down here it is taking up an inordinate amount of space. No way we finish all of this in one go.
May as well get to it!
Om nom nom.
