the ability installation was the most painful thing he ever felt, yet kind of satisfying. after the pain subsided tanda felt a buzzing feeling in his hands he felt different. tanda decided to test out this ability, so he went up to the chair in the middle of the room and grabbed it....nothing happened. feeling kind of let down he let out a sigh, and asked the system why nothing happened, the response he got was "system needs more specimens to add more glands to the host hand to have more of an effect" "how many would that take?" tanda asked the system replied "100 specimens" 'WHAT!?!?!?' he thought 'It hurt like hell when one got to me and I have to get 100 more?!?!?
he asked the system if there were any other way, the system replied "affirmative host can grow more" tanda perked up "how long would that take" "5 years" tanda felt his dreams shatter as he heard those words, he decided that if he was going to do this he would have to be smart he looked around the small room all there was was a chair, bed, sink toilet, and a fan. so he started thinking it took him about 30 minutes to come up with a plan he decided the best course of action was one where he didn't get hurt, with that, he realized what he had to do
he grabbed the wooden chair in the middle of the room. broke it in half, He then grabbed the two large legs of the chair and tied his pillow sheet to it, he then wet the bed sheets proceeding to wrapped them around his upper half, he then proceeded to grab the pillow and break it apart and stuff it into his pants, making the privates were padded the most. the plan was that the wet sheet would keep him from being touched and stung the pillow would act as a net to catch all the fly he could he thought it was foolproof he smiled, thinking he was the smarted man ever and thus he put his plan into action
he busted the door open and swiped with the pillow quickly and caught roughly 20 of them but the joy was short lived when he closed the door with the fly in the bag, he suddenly remembered..... they have the touch of disintegration... he could only say "oh fu--" before the flys started bursting out of the bag, began swatting the bag with the sheet. And using this method he killed most and the rest he had to swat with his hands which in fact did hurt like hell. now there was the only one left it was bigger than the others and it had a large red dot on its back, seeing this he thought it had to be the queen. the buzzing at the door got a hundred times louder as the queen buzzed loud, so tanda used his boot to squash it and the system
responded to this by saying "system recognizes unanalyzed specimens
please consume to obtain new abilities and or information"
After hearing this tanda reluctantly decided to do it "this is nasty" he muttered to himself as he picked up the queen, he gulped it down quickly and let the system analyze it. after about a minute or two, he heard back from the system "the queen has two abilities which can be obtained simultaneously they are the following 'hive mind control (active) and pheromone exertion(passive) " tanda asked the system to specify what they each did and if they had side effects the system replied "hive mind control allows host to emit a frequency that allows him to communicate orders to the fly which have been dubbed the death locus by the host whereas the second ability allows the host to emit a pheromone that will make all death locus passive to the host no side effects have been found to any of the two abilities what would host like to do?
tanda thought it was a no-brainer he immediately said yes to the system and was told it would work within the next 5 minutes after which the host could use it at will
the five minutes passed quickly and tanda bearly felt any pain just a headache, Deciding to test if the ability worked he opened the door quickly and braced himself for the worst but to his amazement, nothing happened the flys ignored him as if he was not there, tanda felt elated that he could leave. but before he could leave he had one last order of business he decided to test out 'hive mind' now he called on the system and told it to turn on hive mind after doing so tanda started to order them to see if it worked when he said "up" they flew up when he said "down" they went down and so he got a sinister grin and gave the next order.
"separate 100 from the group and kill them"
the hive did so after about 30 minutes of infighting which resulted in way more than 100 deaths. tanda gobbled up 100 he needed, and added them to his skill and the system responded "estimated evolve time 30 min, also new skill in development due to repeated use. the skill 'pain tolerance' has been evolved to have times 2 effectiveness" with that tanda heaved a sigh of relief due to the thought of now not having to go through such intense pain again until the system said " warning: due to the quantity of evolving material the pain will be 100x worse the system apologizes for the inconvenience "wait, what" is all tanda could say before being paralyzed by the pain and shot to the ground where he jolted hard for 30 mins than became unconscious
