【Option [-]】

【Wizards】

……

Zheng Zhuo checked the number of votes and pictures repeatedly, and finally stretched out his hand slowly.

He clicked on the ray of burning elemental energy with his finger.The moment he came into contact with the picture, he felt a strange sensation—a slight tingling at first.The tingling pain spread all over his body along his index finger touching the picture, and then he felt a warm feeling on his body.

Zheng Zhuo felt as if he was soaked in a huge hot water tank.The gentle heat penetrated into his body, soaking the internal organs.

He suddenly felt very sleepy.The eyelids are heavy and cannot be opened.

Just close your eyes for a moment.He said so to himself.Then he yawned big and closed his eyes.

……

Zheng Zhuo fell asleep completely.He didn't know how long he had slept, he only knew that he was woken up by freezing.

"...so cold..."

Zheng Zhuo opened his blurry eyes, feeling a little discordant: the light didn't come in through a small slit as usual, and he couldn't feel that he was blinking.

The scenery suddenly appeared in front of him, but gradually changed from blur to clarity.

The warm hot bath is gone.The cold wind blew across the plain, as if it had penetrated his internal organs...

...It's not like, it's really worn.

"...Wow."

Zheng Zhuo couldn't feel his hands, feet or body anymore.

He was wrapped in a wisp of dark red will-o'-the-wisp.In other words, this dark red wisp of will-o'-the-wisp is him.

"It really turned into a will-o'-the-wisp. I might be the first person in all mankind to turn into a will-o'-the-wisp..."

Zheng Zhuo began to try to stretch himself, but after trying, he realized that the feeling was worse than imagined.

The field of view becomes a 360° fisheye lens.That alone took him a long time to get used to—at first, he just stayed where he was, dizzy.

If he could have vomited anything, he felt he would have vomited many times.

And this is just the beginning.

After getting used to the line of sight, Zheng Zhuo found out in despair that it was not because of the line of sight that he could only stay where he was.

The moving speed of the will-o'-the-wisp is really too slow, no matter how hard he tries to move himself quickly in a certain direction, he can only float lightly to the desired position.

Taking the cracked lines on the ground as a reference, Zheng Zhuo thinks that his floating speed is not much faster than the baby's crawling speed.

【evolution】.

As the name suggests, it is the process of changing from a weak existence to a powerful existence.Zheng Zhuo had also made mental preparations for this.

But the weakness of the evolutionary starting point was far beyond his imagination.

"No wonder being born on the wasteland...I'm like a flame on a birthday candle...Anyone can blow me out..."

Zheng Zhuo tried to open the [Collective Subconscious] software while talking to himself.

If this cannot be opened, he will really be desperate.

Fortunately that didn't happen.

……

【Zheng Zhuo】

[Race: Ghost Fire (Dark Red)]

[Ability: identification, evolution]

[Evolved: None]

【Points: 0】

[Optional evolution: none]

……

"There is nothing. This unknown point is also zero. By the way, where is Chu Huairen?"

He should be observing.Thinking of this, Zheng Zhuo shouted in his heart.

"Hi! Chu Huairen, are you there!?"

"...Zheng... Zhuo..."

Zheng Zhuo heard Chu Huairen's voice from far away in the sky.

"...you...where are you...I can't see you..."

"I've become a will-o'-the-wisp!" he cried. "The dark red kind—a tiny wisp!"

"I...I can't see..."

What is his point of view?Full view?Zheng Zhuo slandered.

"I—I'm—"

Zheng Zhuo wanted to tell his location.But no matter how far he looked, he couldn't find a single landmark: it was the same everywhere.Cracked earth and scattered dead trees in the distance.

"I haven't found where you are...but...I...will watch..." Chu Huairen continued, "On the ground...if I find anything...I...will call you..."

"Now we can only do this—"

At least one more sky eye.

Zheng Zhuo had no choice but to adjust his mentality.

……

After Chu Huairen's voice disappeared, the surroundings returned to silence.

[Collective subconsciousness] can help oneself, but not much.Chu Huairen could help him, but not much.

"I thought that with a helping hand, it would be much easier... I still have to rely on myself."

Zheng Zhuo sighed.From the outside, it looked like the flames flickered a bit.

"Think about it."

He opened [Appraisal].

……

【null】

……

It was the first time he saw a blank identification interface.Look to the left, look to the right, it's all completely blank.

"What a clean and refreshing world."

He laughed dryly.

It's the same in every direction.So, he picked a direction at random - the direction with a dead tree that was quite pleasing to the eye in the distance - and moved forward.

The slow speed of the will-o'-the-wisp makes the appraisal efficiency very low.The only good thing is that he has a 360° viewing angle.

It also helped him find the first object that was identified.

……

【dry grass】

……

Finally saw the item.Zheng Zhuo spent a lot of time getting close to the bundle of grass.

When he finally got close to the completely blackened, brittle grass, his heat ignited the dead grass.

He realized he wasn't very hot.Because the dead grass wrapped by him just disintegrated at a very slow speed, as if blown by the wind.

But anyway, he tried to crush the grass.

"Has anything changed?"

He opened up his [collective subconscious mind].

There are still changes. [Points: 0] becomes [Points: 1].

"At least it works. A good start," he said to himself.

……

The time that followed was the most boring time that Zheng Zhuo had spent in his life.He walked slowly towards the dead tree, bypassing it from time to time to swallow the dead grass on the ground.

He didn't know how long this process lasted.The sky is always overcast and cloudy, and the light seems to be absent, neither brightening nor completely dark.Zheng Zhuo felt like an immortal being launched into space, forever repeating strange movements that could not be seen.

……

【Points: 6】

【Points: 7】

It was kind of fun at first.

……

【Points: 19】

【Points: 21】

Some dead grass with relatively high water content is worth 2 points.

……

【Points: 45】

【Points: 47】

He's starting to be able to tell from a distance which hay has more points.

……

【Points: 87】

【Points: 88】

"..."

……

【Points: 100】

The moment has finally come.Two digits became three digits.The dead tree is also close at hand.Zheng Zhuo even saw some living creatures scurrying around near the dead trees from a distance, flying up and down.

He didn't feel anything special.He clicked on the interface.

"……Um?"

Then, at last, the difference woke him from his stupor.

……

【Zheng Zhuo】

[Race: Ghost Fire (Dark Red)]

[Ability: identification, evolution]

[Evolved: None]

【Points: 100】

[Optional evolution: increase in temperature/increase in size/increase in speed]

……

In the optional evolution, three options appeared.

"Finally appeared...evolution..."

Zheng Zhuo was even a little moved.

He almost wanted to immediately choose [speed up] to get rid of this torture, but stopped before choosing.

"Wait a moment."

He has now reached the dead tree.There is likely to be a living thing in front of you. Is speed really that important?

Now it is difficult for him to swallow only a small bunch of dead grass.It may be more difficult to prey on living things.Should you opt for size gain?

However, the other party might not stand still and be preyed upon.The increase in temperature must increase the lethality.

But thinking about it this way, speed is also good for hunting...

"Let's just ask."

He thought, and opened [Subconscious Voting].

……

【problem】
