As soon as morning arrived I headed out to secure more bio points for for upgrades.
I traced the rabbit's memory to find a carrot field where many regular and horned rabbits went on with there business. They might seem adorable but the bigger horned rabbits were bullying the smaller regular ones and took there feeding spots away. Each rabbit was highly territorial and protected its territory fiercely.
I also stole carrots from a fat horned rabbit but it didn't dared to fight me as I was much bigger no I was the biggest and the meanest rabbit around.
Carrots provided slightly more bio points then the fruits i've been eating before as a regular carrot provided 4-5 bio points and unfortunately I couldn't find any larger ones.
(3 bio points gained)
(4 bio points gained)
(5 bio points gained)
After eating 3 carrots I gained a sum of 12 bio points and began upgrading my small teeth.
Ok the feeling of you teeth being ripped out was a bit to much for me, I left the body and watched how its teeth were falling out one by one and new longer sharper teeth grew in there place.
They resembled a wolf's teeth somewhat but not entirely.
I repossessed my rabbit body and upgraded my metabolism next which thankfully wasn't painful but only felt like i was having acidity.
Now I only had 1 bio point remaining and finding more carrots would be tiresome maybe I can kill these rabbits?
No but they're too adorable
But the predators of this forest won't hesitate or consider my cuteness while hunting me which I clearly don't want. Sorry fellow rabbits but you got to die
;(
I went to the border of the carrot field where one lone regular rabbit nibbled the grass with its small mouth.
Occasionally dropping some pieces down, it also wiggled its cotton like tail which almost made me reconsider hunting it.
I slowly approached it from the behind trying not to startle it. But it noticed me and instead of running it went back to nibbling grass as I'm also a rabbit and it didn't felt any danger from me. A big mistake which it'll probably won't even get a chance to regret later.
After closing appropriate distance I picked up my pace and rammed my horn into its ribcage, it let out a agonizing squeak as its body went limp after 12 seconds.
(2 lifeforce has been absorbed)
So I do get lifeforce from recently deceased creatures as I felt warm and pleasant sensation washing over my spiritual body.
Now its time to see how much bio energy this rabbit provides.
My sharp teeth easily punctured it hide and gave me an easy access to the delicious inside which tasted like chicken.
After completely devouring the delicious rabbit which is already making me crave more rabbit flesh, a notification appeared
(17 bio points gained)
Damn that's a lot because now I directly have 18 bio points.
Without any hesitation I chose bipedal frame and immediately left the body because I knew the terrible pain would be too much for me to bear as my spirit form doesn't feel any actual pain.
I watched how the rabbit's body elongated and the noise of bones popping filled the surrounding, the feet were also expanding growing larger and more durable to support the bulk as now only they had to support the entire bulk of the body.
When the process was complete I repossessed the body and immediately fell down when I tried to stand as now the center of gravity shifted.
But I managed as being a human made it easier for me to walk again on 2 legs
Now I stood 1.4 meter tall which was much shorter then when I was a human but still much bigger then the size I was before as a rabbit. Now being larger then before, my Biomatter storage expanded to 35.
While I was testing my new upgraded body a horned rabbit stumbled before me and was stunned as it probably never expected to see a rabbit like me with monster like teeth fully visible from my mouths as my mouth couldn't conceal my new larger teeth. I immediately leapt at the horned rabbit grabbing it my the neck not giving it a chance to even cry out as I impaled it with my horn instantly killing it.
I started to devour the poor rabbit quite ravenously as the taste of flesh was quite irresistible. When I first ate the rabbit from before a new desire manifested deep within me, The desire to the devour and grow stronger was maddening and I gave into that temptation.
Under 17 minutes the rabbit was gone making my total bio points 34
I checked for any new enhancements
Claws, cost: 6 bio points
Horns, cost: 5 bio points
Tough hide, cost: 10 bio points
Stronger muscles, cost: 9 bio points
Skeletal expansion, cost: 20 bio points
Nice I go new enhancements and I could buy all of them except one. So I chose all of them and left tye body and watched the transformation commence.
The body twitched on the ground as its muscles grew and strengthened even further, the fur was growing darker and took a grey shade as it grew even thicker but it didn't look fluffy anymore instead it was looking prickly and seemed unpleasant to touch. The front laws were expanding before they looked like some furry hands but now they were red in colour and long black claws sprouted from them. 2 horns were emerging right below the ears and were shaped like bull's horns but had the same unicorn like texture like the horn on the forehead
When I possessed this body again it felt like an entirely different creature, System show me my status
Race: Horned Rabbit (Altered Beast)
Rank: Possessed Monster
Lifeforce available: 0
Biomatter available: 4/40
Strength: 25 (Above average)
Durability: 27 (Above average)
Agility: 35 (High)
Mana: 0 (Nonexistent)
Willpower: 20 (Average)
Intelligence: 22 (Normal)
Wow now that's some major change and my biomatter storage exoanded even furthur, also why did I possessed intelligence stat?
System you know something about this?
(When a creature reaches a certain level of strength it develops intelligence which can increase its thinking capability and even allowing it to weild magic)
(While spirits also posses intelligence they're not technically alive making there stats incomprehensible by a regular system, only greater spirits posses proper stats while the weaker or lesser spiritual being can only posses proper stats when they inhabit a body)
Okay this went a little beyond my understanding so i'll leave it for now.
Now to the interesting part, I had new enhancements available
Skeletal expansion, cost: 20 bio points
Stronger muscles-2, cost: 15 bio points
Tough hide-2, cost: 15 bio points
Enhanced senses, cost: 8 bio points
Locked
Locked
Locked
I wonder what are the locked ones but currently I must gater enough bio points to upgrade my strength and durability first after that i'll take enhanced senses then skeleton.
For me to accomplish all this a lot of rabbits are going to die >:3
