As Ben continued to consume the blood of the mutant beast, he could feel his strength growing. Each sip brought him closer to his goal of bing a formidable force in this mutant world. The metallic taste mixed with the energy sensation invigorated him, fueling his determination to grow even stronger.
"Ding!"
[Congrattions! You have reached level 5. [All stats +0.2]
Ben''s excitement soared as he leveled up once again. With each level gained, he could feel the surge of power coursing through his veins, his tiny mosquito body undergoing remarkable transformations.

But before Ben could step down the stairs of excitement, another notification popped up on his screen, sending him on cloud nine.

[Primary evolution is avable; would you like to evolve to evo 1?]
[ept] [Not now]
"Wait what? Wasn''t this supposed to be my way to be a human? The system, answer me." Ben''s wings stiffened up in shock and confusion as he asked.
[Host, getting an evolution request means your body can no longer grow stronger in this form, so you will need to undergo a gic modification procedure to improve your capabilities and potential.]
"Is that so? Then what if I don''t want to evolve and use the not now option?" Ben asked with a tinge of confusion.
[ Since the evolution process is time-consuming and the host is vulnerable during the time of evolution, the system designed this program so that the host can find a good ce for himself before he epts the evolution.]
"Is that so? Well, that makes sense since I can''t go to evolve in the middle of a battle or something, or I will pretty much get killed." Ben muttered silently while rubbing his mosquito temples on his right foreleg.
"Well, system, I was just thinking, what if I choose not to evolve right now and continue to grind and level up?" Ben asked in excitement as if he were a little kid who had figured out a bug in the matrix.
The host won''t be able to level up any further unless the host evolves to Evo 1. In any case, even if the host manages to increase his strength without evolving, your tiny little mosquito body will st to shreds.
"Gulp" Listening to the system''s warning, Ben swallowed down his ultra-creative thoughts along with the n to beat the matrix.
"Alright, fine, then, I will find myself a ce where I can safely evolve," Ben concluded, letting out a long breath of disappointment, before he flew upward and began his search for a safe spot.
It didn''t take long for Ben to find a football-sized hole in an old tree that waspletely hidden by itsrge leaves. Using his blood tracer abilities, Ben first scanned to ensure that no one was present in or out of that hole before he went in and clicked on the notification window from the status screen.
[Primary evolution is avable; would you like to evolve to evo 1?]
[ept] [Not now]
Without hesitation, he selected "ept" and prepared himself for the uing transformation.
As he made his choice, a blinding light enveloped his entire being, obscuring his vision. The world around him faded away, and he felt a warm, blunt pain in his body as if his body were undergoing a rapid metamorphosis.
His limbs elongated, his wings grewrger and stronger, his missing leg regenerated as if it had never been damaged, and his entire form became more streamlined and resilient.
When the light finally subsided, Ben emerged as apletely transformed creature. And a new notification popped in front of his eyes:
[Congrattions, host! You have sessfully evolved into a drawing mosquito. ]
Ben emerged as apletely transformed creature. No longer a mere mosquito, he had evolved into a dreadwing mosquito.
With a sleek and menacing appearance, Ben''s body was covered in iridescent ck and red scales. His wings spanned wider, pulsating with an eerie crimson glow. The proboscis that once fed on blood now possessed razor-sharp fangs, ready to pierce through any defense, with elegant patterns decorating his wings. He wasrger, more robust, and radiated an aura of power and authority.
As Ben marveled at his new form, the system''s voice resonated within his mind.
Ben''s excitement soared to new heights. He couldn''t believe the transformation he had undergone. From a small, fragile mosquito to a formidable Dreadwing Mosquito: "That''s what you call a true monster... hahaha!" Ben eximed, moving his body, which was as big as a cricket ball now.
Eager to explore his newfound powers, Ben activated his status screen once again to see the changes brought about by his evolution.
