Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

Seemingly not hearing anything, the soul parasite within Leo's body remained silent.

Its soul senses quietly surge upward, toward the enormous hive hanging below the thick branches of the tree, as it observes the bees above with scrutiny.

"How did they evolve into this type of bee? I remembered that I released some of them here so I could enjoy their honey when my main body went back and to benefit the special spiritual herbs here, but who would have thought that they seemed to have also awakened their ancestors' bloodline? Maybe even mutated into something else."

"What should we do now then?" Hearing the faint mumbling of the other party, seemingly reminiscing about the past, Leo inquired, not letting the other party talk again continuously without thinking of its surroundings.

"Your body. Can poison enter your body? And how about your invisibility? Does it emit fluctuations if you move?"

"It should not be..."

Feeling surprised, Leo immediately answered, fueling his invisibility further as unease couldn't help but resurface in his soul.

Although he had no idea why the soul parasite asked him those questions, he knew that its purpose wouldn't be that good. At least, that's what his instinct of having over 1,000 attributes on his soul attribute told him.

...

"I see, then you need to get some of their queen's Royal Honey no matter what... If you managed to consume them, then your overall strength and potential would increase by an amount! With that, you might be able to avoid some of the disadvantages of increasing your realm in a short period of time!"

"This... Are you sure? You should be aware of their strength, right?"

Gulping at the thought of stealing honey from the gigantic bees above, Leo again looks at their dazzling information. Wiping his imaginary sweat on his forehead as he began scrolling through their skill.

[ Queen's Soldier (Title): Fighting alongside the queen or fighting to protect the queen increases the host's overall stats by 25 points, with a small probability of entering the "Enrage" state that further boosts its overall stats by 25. ]

...

"Explain the exact usefulness of the Royal Honey; if their worth isn't that much, then I wouldn't risk my safety to invade that hive."

Speaking through his mind, Leo silently retracted his gaze, surveying his surroundings for a while before climbing toward the adjacent tree where the bees' hive was located.

There, he patiently observed the bee's movement, watching them fly past him, clearly looking for flowers to extract as he silently deactivated his restraint (rare +) skill, causing his debuff passive skills to spread on all sides in a matter of seconds... Bringing forth countless invisible curses toward the existence nearby.

Wisp of Poison~

Still not done, Leo then activated his old skill that he had upgraded beyond its level a few times, while also fusing his faint understanding of the "Descend of Disease" rule toward it, causing its strength to elevate further...

Moreover, with the strange effects of the Descent of Disease (rule), his other debuff passive skills also suffered various changes, carrying more effects as their intangible existence swarms all over the encompassed land.

"Unfortunately, the mist of illusion still retains a faint color. I couldn't use it for now in order to avoid being caught."

Despite the various skills he had released, Leo's face still showed faint dissatisfaction, looking at the suppressed debuff passive skill that he had released as the complete rules lingering around weakened their abilities by 5%.

***

Buzz~

Soon, time passed by.

Leo, who was hiding behind the tree branch, observing the bees on the horizon, suddenly got awakened by the voice inside his body. Almost causing him to jump in shock since he had forgotten about the other existence.

"You might not know this, but Royal honey could actually purify one's soul—achieving the effect of slightly elevating one's potential. Moreover, it has the ability to assist a peak stage of the core formation realm to transcend the Nascent Soul realm.

"With the appearance of the bees above, they should have experienced a good mutation, probably causing the Royal honey they created to become even more potent."

Falling silent again, as if it was reminiscing about the far past, the soul parasite then continued.

"In addition to that, with the passage of time, they should have collected a large amount of Royal Honey — a thing that could even make someone above the Soul Transformation realm drool in greed."

"I see."

Hearing the other party's words, Leo unfolds a thoughtful look, scrutinizing the hive above as their basic information soon appeared in his mind.

[ Bloodied BeesWax: A dried honeycomb created from various nectar that came from spiritual flowers. Consuming a pound of it could increase overall stats by one... However, its effects would start deteriorating upon consuming 100 pounds of it until it no longer contributes stats. ]

"I could only wait for my debuff passive skill to take effect before invading their hive; I hoped my level 10 invisibility skill wouldn't fail me."
