513: Chapter 561 Are Flower's Selectable Attributes Really That Useless?

The Fungus Race is composed of a large group of fungal colonies.

No matter how many pieces they are divided into, they are a single entity, Sharing everything.

Once Kuku fully covers the Giant Forest and the island, An Ke will be able to communicate in real-time with anyone in the Bamboo Village through Kuku while in the Giant Forest.

There would be no more worry about the group getting separated and being unable to contact each other promptly.

Actually, even without full coverage, it's not a big problem; at most, there would be a delay in conversation.

The farther the distance, the longer the delay.

But this isn't a problem because, considering the distance from the outskirts of the Giant Forest to the Bamboo Village, if Kuku hasn't achieved full coverage,

the message delay would only be about two or three seconds.

Such a delay is completely acceptable.

An Ke was immediately tempted. With Kuku, he wouldn't need to spend time setting up communication facilities.

Furthermore, besides the convenience of communication, Kuku's addition is equivalent to gaining another fierce general.

His SS-grade skill is extremely overbearing.

—【Two-Thirds】

【As the name suggests, this ability activates as long as Two-Thirds or more of the enemy's body area is within the user's own shadow.

Simultaneously, if the user's biological level is higher than the target's, they can instantly shrink the target by 100,000 times for 30 seconds.】

An Ke finally understood why Old Li and the others said that creatures who came into contact with the Thousand Changes Race disappeared.

This ability might be a bit difficult for others to achieve, but for Kuku, it couldn't be simpler.

As long as he can grow, his body is endless.

Coupled with the stealth of his body, this ability is almost invincible.

A Player shrunk by 100,000 times has no chance of resistance against Kuku, whose biological level has reached 30.

This is also the reason why the Tar Main King didn't last 3 seconds...

"your esteemed father, if you're afraid I might pose a threat to you, I can actively lower my own biological level."

Kuku proactively helped An Ke reduce the risk.

"No, no, no!" An Ke decisively refused.

"Just maintain your level 30 biological level."

Lower his biological level?

What kind of joke is that?

What about the accelerated leveling for his 【Natural Affinity】?

That's right! An Ke agreed to Kuku joining the Bamboo Village for another important reason.

That is, Kuku's level 30 biological level could help An Ke accelerate his leveling progress.

【「Natural Affinity」 Level 20. Approximately 7 days remaining until level up.】

【Level 3 「Share」 function. Approximately 3 days remaining until level up.】

【Next attribute grant:

Sister-in-law Crocodile (Prehistoric Giant Crocodile) +200 points of Tornado attribute.

Approximate time until grant: 4 days.

Next attribute enhancement: Old Crocodile (Prehistoric Giant Crocodile).

Linguistic Attack increased to 500 points.

Approximate time until grant: 4 days.

Self-select next attribute grant target:

Currently none.】

An Ke originally wanted to admire the reduced days for leveling up.

But when he saw that the target for the self-selected attribute grant was currently 'none', his mood immediately soured.

Damn! I forgot to self-select a member to grant attributes to!

An Ke rarely cursed out loud.

But he was currently in a meeting with Kuku, so it wasn't appropriate to look at the system panel for too long.

Kuku, standing before him, didn't expect An Ke to not ask him to lower his attributes.

"your esteemed father, aren't you going to take any precautions?" Kuku didn't understand why An Ke trusted him so much.

An Ke spoke righteously, also wanting to quickly end the meeting so he could self-select a member to grant attributes to.

The longer he delayed, the slower the overall strength improvement would be.

Tomorrow morning, connections with various civilizations would begin.

"Kuku, from the moment I first saw you, I knew you were very reliable.

Perhaps this is the temperament forged by the sincerity and simplicity that your Fungus Race has always possessed..."

Kuku's eyes widened slightly. Hearing An Ke say this, he was indescribably happy inside.

"your esteemed father, I will absolutely not betray your trust." Kuku declared loudly.

Hearing this, An Ke immediately laughed heartily and waved his hand grandly: "Welcome to our big family.

Come! I'll take you to my Bamboo Village right now!"

The reason An Ke dared to let Kuku not lower his biological level stemmed from confidence in 【Spider Foresight】.

If Kuku dared to have any ideas about him and used 【Two-Thirds】,

An Ke would know about it 10 seconds in advance.

At that time, he could simply use 【Telekinesis】 to fly off Kuku's body.

10 seconds was enough for An Ke to get a kilometer away from Kuku.

So, what did An Ke have to fear?

He just needed to comfortably enjoy the leveling up.

Once everyone returned to the Bamboo Village,

An Ke had someone show Kuku around to familiarize him with the environment, while he himself hurried into the Bamboo Village to self-select a member to grant attributes to.

After some thought, among the veteran members, only the Golden Snub-nosed Monkey and Huahua hadn't been granted attributes yet.

As for the Bees,

for some unknown reason, they hadn't developed intelligence.

Ever since the Bamboo Village grew in scale, An Ke had let them roam freely.

He felt this was also good for them—carefree, without worrying about danger or participating in battles.

To be honest, An Ke really missed the times back in the small Camp.

Carefree, relaxed, and comfortable.

But both people and things grow...

An Ke ultimately decided to grant attributes to Huahua first.

【Confirm granting attributes to Huahua?】

"Yes!"

【Selectable attributes to grant:

Foodie attribute +200 points.

Peacemaker attribute +200 points.

Sleeping attribute +200 points.】

When An Ke saw the self-selected attributes he could grant to Huahua, he was utterly stunned.

What in the world were these attributes he could give Huahua?

Were they this absurd?

None of them had anything to do with getting stronger!

An Ke fell into deep silence.

He was speechless for a full half minute.

Only then did he 'agonizingly' choose the "Sleeping" attribute.

"Huahua, oh Huahua! It's not that your brother doesn't want you to get stronger, it's just that the attributes I can grant you are all too outrageous..."

He chose Sleeping because Huahua really liked to sleep.

Since none of them seemed to increase combat strength, he chose the one Huahua liked.

As for Foodie,

An Ke felt Huahua's own Foodie attribute wasn't lacking.

There was no need to add another 200 points.

Now, during the harsh winter, bamboo was already scarce.

After finishing this, An Ke went to wash up and then went to bed.

He intended to face tomorrow's "Great Chaos" with the best mental state.

He wondered how many civilizations would connect to the Blue Star territory then.

...

That night, many Players couldn't sleep.

Watching the 【Game】 system's countdown, it felt like a doomsday countdown.

Although some Players had acquired 【cores】 in the last two days,

their strength improvements were far from enough.

They'd probably be killed by any random civilization Player they encountered.

Many Players left the Giant Forest, planning to survive on the frigid island.

Because the previous few civilization connection points were in the Giant Forest,

everyone thought the civilization channels connecting tomorrow would most likely also be in the Giant Forest...

...

In the Giant Forest, around a campfire sat 6 Savage Players.

"What do you think, should we try to find a few alien civilizations to cooperate with?"
