69: Snail Killer

"What's wrong? Still not convinced? Or are you angry?"

Su Yuan smiled slightly, his eight ferocious tentacles blooming like a symmetrical flower of Hell, instantly enveloping the Big Pond Snail.

Each tentacle erupted with terrifying force; there was no need for sharp Claws and a beak. The astonishing power had already caused the Pond Snail's shell to crack repeatedly.

The next moment, the entire Pond Snail's outer shell directly shattered, revealing the tender flesh inside.

The terrifying abyssal maw opened, swallowing the entire Big Pond Snail in one gulp.

【You devoured a Pond Snail, gaining 30 evolution points.】

"Not many evolution points, but the taste is quite good."

Su Yuan smacked his lips, his appetite suddenly piqued. His eight tentacles instantly swept up all the surrounding Pond Snails.

"Nothing to do anyway, might as well have a Pond Snail feast here!"

With his appetite stimulated, Su Yuan also went against his usual principles and spent a lot of time catching all the Pond Snails and other shellfish in the area, leaving none behind.

However, the number of Pond Snails and various shellfish here was beyond his imagination.

And, from time to time, Big Pond Snails over a meter in size were found by him.

"This can't be a Pond Snail nest, can it!"

Su Yuan showed a joyful smile, eating with great relish.

Moreover, unlike fish, shrimp, and crabs, the movement speed of Pond Snails and other shellfish was simply too slow.

This also gave Su Yuan the confidence to catch them all!

Suddenly, Su Yuan keenly sensed a change in the water flow, and a water sword suddenly shot towards him.

"Petty tricks!"

Su Yuan's expression was calm. A tentacle extended, and its extended Claws slashed upwards!

The two collided, and Su Yuan's Claws easily cut through the water sword!

"I didn't expect that a mere Pond Snail could Awaken a special ability."

Due to his body's alienation, Su Yuan could perceive Mental Energy and immediately detected the source of the Mental Energy fluctuations.

He looked at a small Pond Snail to his left-rear. It wasn't very large, only about the size of a child's palm, entirely azure blue, and crystal clear like jade, resembling a sapphire diamond.

This was less like a living creature and more like a work of art.

Sensing Su Yuan's gaze, a current of water appeared around the Pond Snail's body, swirling it and sending it shooting off into the distance at an extremely fast speed!

"Can you escape!"

A hint of mockery appeared in Su Yuan's eyes.

The next moment, a thin Laser Beam shot out, piercing through the fleeing azure blue Pond Snail!

Su Yuan arrived quickly, a tentacle wrapping around the azure blue Pond Snail's body, swallowing it in one gulp.

【You devoured a Pond Snail, gaining 100 evolution points.】

"This taste is exquisite! It even made me feel the ocean. And such a small size, yet it gives 100 evolution points."

Su Yuan closed his eyes, savoring the taste, carefully recalling that sensation.

The taste of this mutated Pond Snail was definitely the most delicious creature he had tasted since his Rebirth as an Adaptable Octopus.

"I wonder if there are any more."

After a while, Su Yuan opened his eyes, carefully surveying his surroundings.

Unfortunately, there was no second mutated Pond Snail like this nearby.

"If there aren't any, I still can't let these Pond Snails go."

Su Yuan looked at the surrounding Pond Snails, his eight tentacles extending in eight directions.

The commotion here even attracted the covetousness of some Big Black Fish. However, when they noticed Su Yuan's presence, they fled in a panic.

"Still not foolish!"

Su Yuan merely glanced at them and continued his Pond Snail buffet.

By the time Su Yuan finished the last shellfish in the vicinity, it was already nighttime.

A bright moon hung high in the night sky, casting cold moonlight that covered the water's surface like silver frost.

"After eating for so long, I feel like my mouth is full of Pond Snail flavor. Let me see what my harvest is like."

Su Yuan felt like he had eaten a year's worth of Pond Snails. He had found and eaten every Pond Snail in an entire river, eating all the way until night.

His current location was the end of Yangjiang Town, beyond which lay the wilderness.

This was the first time he had so concentratedly devoured one type of creature.

Even if he liked eating Pond Snails, he was a bit tired of them now.

【You have devoured all the Pond Snails within a town, achieving the accomplishment: Pond Snail Killer (Town-Rank) (When facing Pond Snails, all your attributes increase by two percent)】

"Accomplishment?"

Su Yuan's face showed a hint of surprise. This was the first time he had triggered this function since activating the System.

Moreover, the effect of this accomplishment was not low.

This accomplishment was only Town-Rank, clearly implying there were higher-Rank accomplishments. What if it was City-Rank, Province-Rank? Or even National-Rank?

The attributes would probably be very significant!

It was a pity he only discovered it now.

"Big Black Fish, believe me, if you really come looking for me, I'll give you a surprise!"

Su Yuan thought of many things. First, he would definitely be hunting Big Black Fish next.

Big Black Fish, as fierce aquatic creatures, their strength after evolution has always been among the top aquatic beings, and Big Black Fish would certainly not be absent from his future opponents.

Not to mention that a certain Big Black Fish hated him to death, so he absolutely had to grind this attribute.

After Su Yuan finished looking at the new accomplishment function, he looked at the system panel.

【evolution points: 15088 / 7000】 (Mental Energy increasing) (Evolvable)

"What! evolution points over fifteen thousand!"

Su Yuan's eyes widened, a little surprised.

He knew that this time's evolution points wouldn't be small, because he had been eating from morning until midnight, so it definitely wouldn't be small, but these evolution points still exceeded his expectations.

If it were aimless predation, this data wouldn't surprise him, but to gain so much just by eating Pond Snails and shellfish was somewhat astonishing.

Because most Pond Snails are extremely small, eating hundreds of them might only equal the evolution points of one small fish.

"This time, I might be able to evolve twice in a row. I'll save grinding for the Big Black Fish accomplishment for tomorrow."

Su Yuan muttered with a smile, then immediately returned to where he entered, went back to the underground river, and began to evolve.

As seven thousand evolution points disappeared, a great power descended, enveloping his entire body.

All of Su Yuan's flesh and blood evolved under this great power, becoming even stronger.

Each of his evolutions was not just about increasing in size, or the random appearance of body alienation or skills; his overall physical strength also grew stronger!

After an unknown period, Su Yuan awoke from his slumber.

"The taste of becoming stronger is truly wonderful!"

Upon Awakening, Su Yuan felt that his own strength had become even greater!
