You have qualified for 5 Evolutionary Option, do you wish to Evolve now or wait? If you do not choose you will automatically be evolved, if you would like to wait you will need to select No.
Yes / No?
Apart from meeting the requirement for Copycat Slime, it was all mostly the same for the Tier 3 options. It had several Tier 4 options now as well. Those did look quite good! It would have to start looking for and fighting and Assimilating better monsters. That would be to its ultimate benefit. It could not meet the requirement for either the Treaber or the Squitter. Both had nearly killed it as well. That just proved to Resh that those were good options for its next evolution.
For now, though Resh looked at the 2 choices it had. It disregarded the Ant, Termite, and Fly options. Resh did NOT want to become something like an insect. It couldn't become a Dense Slime either, not without Absorbing, Digesting, and the Consolidating many, many times. It would be possible it was just a matter of time. It would be able to strengthen its Absorb, Digest, and Consolidate skills, which had all been useful for it, but that also didn't seem like the best way forward.
Copycat Slime was something it had wanted to change into and now it could. But Aerial Slime had worked well for it, so it could stay the course and continue. It would continue to be able to boost its flying, it did not know if it would continue to be able to fly as much as it was able to now if it changed from the Aerial Slime path. One thing Resh had noticed here that it had not before was that it was only offered evolutions of the same Tier or 1 Tier higher, it had not been offered Treaber or Squitter evolutions when it was Tier 2. Not that it was Tier 3 it could see the new options.
More exploration was needed and within each point of Intellect, its mind got clearer and clearer. It would need to try to get as many points in that as possible and as quickly as possible in terms of the options available to it Copycat Slime was the best in that regard, it would get a lot of Intellect from that hopefully making its future decision making and ability to think things through better.
Copycat Slime!
It braced itself for the inevitable pain and shock and maybe….death…for a while nothing happened but then the pain came back as strong as before, it was there and it was painful but it the more Resh analysed it the more it realised that it wasn't feeling any actual pain but more the memory of pain. The memory was just very vivid and very present. So much so that Resh felt it as its own pain. It had not been able to separate itself from the pain before but now with the increase in Intellect, it was able to put that tiny gap between the two in its psyche.
After all that Resh breathed a sigh of relief. That had been a huge gamble. It had not known if there was something fundamentally wrong with it. If there had been a problem with its development that would cause it to die from evolving.
It did wonder for a brief moment, what was the reason for that pain to be coming back to it as a memory, it didn't make sense, it had felt pain before yes of course in the fights it had experienced in its brief life but that pain had felt different. Like a different body, not Slime it had felt more substantial when experiencing that pain. It didn't wonder for long though it had reaped some serious benefits with that last evolution and was eager to test out what it could do!

This time Resh felt the burst of energy and it was greater than anything it had felt before. The energy was coursing through its body, filling it up. The feeling was euphoric. Resh was unlocking hidden depths and levels of understanding that it didn't have before. It couldn't wait to feel what changes that going to happen next.
With the latest evolution done and under its belt Resh was ready to start exploring further afield. It was time for it to leave this small forested area and see what was in the wider world around it. Insects were all well and good but there was more out there, Resh just knew it. Manifesting its legs the first order of business was to get up above the tree line and since it couldn't fly as it was too heavy, it would crawl up to the top with its powerful legs.
Getting to the top of the tree line it also decided it was not yet done with the Ants, they were a good and easy and quick source of Exp and it would come back for them, it just needed to get its bearing and get a better feel for what opportunities were available to it, and where it needed to explore to find more interesting prey.
Odour Alteration has increased to Level 8!
The first order of business was for Resh to be able to fly again, so Consolidate was going to have to happen.
You are planning to use Consolidate! This is irreversible and will take 6hrs and 15min at your current Weight of 374.43g and Volume of 170.20cm3 after the process is concluded you will have a Weight of 29.95g and Volume of 13.02cm3 your new Density will be 2.3g/cm3, while Consolidate is happening you will be unable to perform any further actions, you will not be able to use any passive skills related to movement or growth, only those related directly to your safety, at this time there are Camouflage and Odour Alteration. Do you wish to go ahead with Consolidate? Yes / No?
No.
As was usually the case it would become so small that it wouldn't be able to use any of its attacks again, if it gained weight first and then did it then it would gain more experience as well as be larger when it was done, it would take longer but that was a price Resh was willing to pay. Nothing ventured, nothing gained! Once again being in the top canopy of the forest and during the day it was now able to make out the tops of the trees and how they rolled out around it in bunches, where before it had just looked like a carpet of black, now it could make out the subtle differences in the greys and whites and blacks how one leaf was shaded a little more than another, it seemed like that was no shortage of things to see and textures to examine.
Without wasting any more time on the subtleties of nature Resh began absorbing the top of the tree, nothing came to attack it but Resh kept eye on the bottom of its body to ensure it would see anything trying to sneak up on it, with its new Copycat Slime abilities that is exactly what it needed anyway. Throughout the next couple of days, it seemed that its growing size intimidated many of the would-be predators and left it alone. Resh took its time, there was no rush.
