After the system erased the soul, the white lizard inherited the memories of another world—a world devoid of magical energy, magical beasts, and cultivators. A world where everyone was mortal, but possessed objects called "computers," used for accessing vast amounts of information and performing countless tasks. The lizard also finally understood the light before its eyes: a "game system." Why is this system attached to a lizard? he wondered.
"I am bound to the host's soul," the system responded. "I do not know the reason for your selection."
So, if I die, you die too? the lizard asked.
"I cannot die," the system stated. "I am not alive. I am what you would consider a computer AI."
Okay, the lizard thought. This human lived in this world for ten years. He actually tried to steal a pill and got killed. He then remembered, You used some kind of points to make me see in the sunlight.
"Yes," the system confirmed. "I evolved your eyes. You can use Evolution Points to evolve and become stronger."
How do I get these points? the lizard asked.
"You gain points from consumption," the system replied. "The higher the rank of the consumed being, the more points you receive."
Oh, then by eating this human… he thought, a predatory gleam in his eyes. He tried to bite into the human corpse, but his teeth couldn't pierce the flesh. He asked the system, How many points do I have?
"You have 20 points," the system responded.
Use all 20 to evolve my teeth, the lizard commanded. A sharp pain shot through his mouth.
"Evolution complete," the system announced. The lizard bit down on the human corpse.
"You gained 10 points for consuming a human at the late stage of Qi Refining," the system stated.
After some time, the lizard had eaten as much of the human as it could manage—which wasn't even half of the corpse; he was still just a lizard the size of a human hand. How many points do I have now? he asked the system.
"You have 50 points," the system replied.
Use all 50 points to evolve my internal organs, the lizard commanded. A burning sensation spread through his body.
"Evolution complete," the system announced. The lizard continued eating, knowing he had to leave before attracting predators with the scent of blood. Once finished, he used his invisibility ability and moved away from the gruesome remains, which consisted only of the human's legs and the corpses of his pursuers.
A few minutes later, the lizard found refuge in another cave. How many points do I have now? he asked the system.
"You have 500 points," the system stated.
Use 100 for my scales, 100 for my eyes, 100 for my teeth, and the remaining 200 for my body, the lizard commanded. An intense wave of pain washed over him, and he lost consciousness.
The next day, he awoke. He was now the size of a chicken.
