As Su Ming got ready to attack when suddenly four more Mutated beetles came out of the nest. Their arrival had changed everything, Su Ming now had to play defensive as the beetles greatly outnumbered him. He had two options one was to make a run but in this case there was a threat that he would get caught by the beetles and die in their hand, The second option was to fight defensively in this case maybe you would get severely injured but he still had chances to survive. Of course summing choose the second one as he coiled himself into a ring and stared into the eyes of The Beatles, These beetles were bigger than the any beetle he had fought until now so he had to be careful but he was sure that he could kill one of them in at least two strikes from his tail.
"Mmmm....If I kill every beetle in front of me and eat them I will surely able to evolve twice…..Oh how great it will be" Su Ming was looking at the group of beetles with greedy eyes, calculating the amount of evolution points he would receive this time. The beetles were quite surprisingly intelligent as they surrounded Su Ming Blocking all the paths of escape. He took a deep breath and got ready to attack at them. Suddenly a beetle slashed at him, in retaliation he swung his tail like a Wipe, his three centimeter broad tail landed on the face of the beetle making it go splat killing the beetle in an instant. " One down seven to go" Su Ming exclaimed after his first kill.
He didn't even get a chance to complete his sentence when he felt another beetle approaching him, he didn't even waste a single minute thinking and just slashed his tail. His tail meets the hard back of the beetle causing it to fly into the wall of the cave due to the force of the hit. He didn't stop there and lunged at a beetle biting its head off. "Double kill, three down five to go!" Su Ming counted his kills while aiming his tail at another beetle approaching him. His tail went whistling past the beetle nearly missing it and hitting the beetle right next to it in the face. He didn't let the beetle sigh in relief and attacked it just as he bit the beetle he felt a piercing pain in his body as if a needle had been nailed into his body. Despite the pain he didn't let go of the beetle instead he threw it on to the beetle that had bit him.
His tail had been caught by a beetle which was trying its best to mutilate his tail as it could. He tried his best to free his tail, and just as he felt the grip on his tail being loosened another beetles came and pierced its pincers in his tail. The beetles began to drag Su Ming toward their nest, as he was wriggling he noticed that the last beetle was sprinting towards his face. Seeing the beetle running towards him an evil smile appeared on his, as soon as he beetle came within his attacking range he lunged at it with all the might he could muster as he needed to cancel out the moment at which the beetles were pulling him. He bit the beetle at its head and threw it towards one of the beetles dragging him, he succeeded in what he was trying to achieve. In order to protect itself the beetle had leave Su Ming's tail which allowed him to free himself. As he was freed he berserk and killed the last remaining Dregs that were fighting him. After finishing them he quickly devoured them and ran, Oh sorry my bad! he slithered as fast as he could. When he reached his hiding spot he called out for the status screen

After that freaking life and death battle he had enough points to go for another evolution. For this evolution he was hopeful that he might cross the length of two meters but what can you say it was stingy and sometimes generous system as he was about he start his third evolution a message appeared in front of him
Quest: Eradicate the beetles and kill their queen
time : 3 hours
Reward: 250 evolution points
Incase of failure: points for the next evolution would be multiplied by 4
'System is it necessary for me to complete the quest right now or I can do it after the evolution?' Su Ming mentally asked the system and its replied surprised him
'its upon you IDIOT but be aware it will take you 120 minutes to evolve this time' he was only seeing the message in front of but also could hear a mechanical voiceringing in his ears. He had no time to waste as he had a quest to do which had a surprisingly generous reward. It confused him as though why some time the system would appear stingy and some time it would appear unbelievingly generous.
The answer once again left him with a open mouth
'it is only because the system wants the host to work hard in order to grow strong, otherwise with such a cheat host would became complacent, arrogant, lazy, obese, buckheaded snake and the system doesn't like complacent, arrogant, lazy, obese, buckheaded beings as they are bound to fail crumble and turn into the dust as they never existed' hearing the fucking long explanation of the system he understood that wanted to waste his time. What a damn bastard, 'I see host is getting intelligent' he ignored the system and chose to evolve
