Little Snake X Information Match

Perhaps because they had just arrived at this nest, the surrounding environment put too much pressure on the two of them, and their attention was focused entirely on survival, with other information being temporarily put aside.

Now that I've relaxed and the environment has become safe, I'm reflecting on things and realizing that something is amiss.

"Is it because the male snakes are absent? Or is this a race with only females?" Melusina couldn't help but ask.

These words made Kevin think.

"Logically, it might be because the male snake was hunting outside, but this is the Dark Continent after all, and we just saw that the snake was hunting in the Timely Rain Cloud."

"Furthermore, no matter how you look at it, this situation is unlikely, because if the males were more powerful, then there wouldn't be a situation where all the males are out hunting."

In other words, the Resentful Eater Snake is very likely hermaphroditic, or even purely female, but capable of conceiving on its own.

"Analyze what she just said. She said you're malnourished and it's best not to lay eggs. If we draw an analogy with the growth stages of the Resentful Eater Snake we analyzed earlier, where would you be in that stage?"

Upon hearing Kevin's words, Melusina thought for a moment and replied directly, "Either the youth stage or the adult stage."

The so-called youth stage is the stage of solidifying the physical body, while adulthood is naturally the stage of fully entering the physical body. This is more in line with Melusina's current state, because her Nen Aura contains a strong element of the Resentful Eater Snake, but she also has a physical body.

Compared to the two phases of the Resentful Eater Snake, isn't Melusina's current state, in their eyes, simply that of someone severely malnourished?

This might explain why the snake brought Melusina back. Perhaps it couldn't bear to see its kind wandering in such a miserable state.

This further suggests that the Resentful Serpent may not be confined to this location.

Of course, this is information that cannot be easily judged.

And if it's true, then it'll be even more troublesome.

"Based on this analysis, it's possible that the Resentful Eater Snake doesn't have a distinction between male and female, and they should all be female."

From the perspective of beings Nen Aura, perhaps self-reproduction is possible.

You can't make simple judgments about the Dark Continent based on the biological composition of a normal human society.

The way the Resentful Eater Snake communicate.

The snake might have thought Melusina wanted to lay eggs because of the emotions they exuded during their intimate moment.

After all, it is Resentful Eater Snake, and it is perhaps normal for it to be able to sense emotions when it devours Resentment.

"Get closer to her," Kevin said, as if struck by a sudden thought.

Melusina waved, signaling for her to come and play.

The youngest of the Resentful Eater Snake swam over; although it was the smallest, it was still a size larger than the two of them.

She rubbed against Melusina.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Kevin carefully touched it.

Perhaps because Kevin's Melusina scent was so strong, the little snake didn't seem to mind.

Life on the Dark Continent shouldn't be that pretentious; Melusina understood Kevin's meaning.

I started bumping into the little snake; it's normal for there to be a little danger in playing around like that.

The little snake clearly didn't mind.

While the two were playing around, Kevin's Nen Aura struck them with close range.

With a sudden thud, the Resentful Eater Snake became alert and abruptly turned its head, but then sensed that it posed no threat.

And then they stopped caring.

Instantly, the information from the Resentful Eater Snake began to be scanned and compared with the data within the Mechanical Chip.

Some data has been compiled.

This data is getting a bit complicated; it starts to contain technical terms that can no longer express its meaning.

This gave Kevin a bit of a headache.

Because he has to spend some time translating it, putting its meaning into words he can understand.

[Resentful Eater Snake]

The classification categories are incomprehensible and cannot be translated; it's unclear how the classification was done.

The three-stage metamorphosis of the Resentful Eater Snake breaks through conventional biological limitations, making it a "one-one" type species:

Infancy – Form: Pure agglomerate of Nen Aura – Nutrition method: Maintains existence by absorbing Resentment from the environment, belonging to – (cannot be translated).

Growth Stage – Morphological transformation: By accumulating biomass through predation, it completes the process and generates a physical snake-like body.

Anatomical features:

It can reach a length of 200 meters, and its scales are composed of solidified resentment crystals.

A poison gland secretes "Yi Yi" (a toxin that turns thoughts into resentment), which catalyzes the biological thoughts into resentment.

- Nutritional mode: Biphasic predation - Energy phase: Absorption of Resentment (primary nutrient source).

-Material phase: Devouring flesh and blood (used for body construction).

-Classification criteria: This stage possesses both the metabolic and energy absorption capabilities of solid organisms, and is classified as "I-I".

The first Adult Stage involves two transformations: the body disintegrates, returning to a pure Nen Aura; the body is compressed, reverting to an Infancy form; and energy density increases exponentially.

- Ecological function: As a node of Resentment, it releases energy ripples to modify the environment and induce the hatching of new Resentful Eater Snake eggs.

Note: The complete metamorphosis cycle is approximately 50-300 years, modulated by the intensity of the Resentment environment.

There are many proper nouns that cannot be translated, but they can be compared to the proper nouns given in Data Chip.

It may be a classification system similar to the genera and classes of organisms in human society.

To Kevin's shock...

None of what they are seeing now is Adult Stage; in fact, they are all Infancy and Growth Stages.

Because Adult Stage revert to being Nen Aura beings similar to their Infancy, some of their previous assumptions were incorrect.

The Resentful Eater Snake is essentially Nen Aura creature; its flesh and blood body is its Growth Stage, which is actually used for transition. Judging from the translated data, it is clearly for obtaining more nutrients for growth.

It can be inferred that during its Growth Stage, the Resentful Serpent's body was like a furnace.

It will also melt the flesh and blood, except for the Nen Aura portion, into nutrients to make up for the lack of Nen Aura food.

Once the flesh and blood have grown and solidified to a certain extent, it is equivalent to the accumulation of Nen Aura reaching a certain level as well.

Then, just like the largest snake they had just seen, it would coil up there and begin to slowly evolve.

Shedding the physical body, one's Nen Aura and physical flesh recombine into Nen Aura, achieving a perfect form.

Once they reach adulthood, they become creatures of Resentment, affecting their surroundings and filling them with Resentment.

Eggs laid at this time can slowly hatch in such an environment.

Essentially, they created the environment themselves.

In other words...

There was a Resentful Eater Snake in this environment that was at least an Adult Stage, but the two of them did not see or discover it.

However, the fact that the two can now move freely should be considered an acceptance of this.

It seems that this creature's mode of existence is based purely on thought to distinguish its kind, and is not changed by will.
