Bugged From the Start: I Spawned as a Parasite

Chapter 38 – Magic Light Tree, Glazed Fruit

It was dark, and naturally, it was the real world's sky that was dark.

In the game, there was also a cycle of day and night, and the change of seasons.

But for players, these were not issues.

Because players came with night vision capabilities.

After nightfall, they could choose to switch their vision.

If you wanted to experience the night scene in the game, the game system wouldn't stop you.

But if you wanted to enjoy the thrill of hunting monsters at night...

Sorry, the system wouldn't indulge you either.

It ensured that you couldn't see a thing in the pitch-black darkness, while monsters could find you with precision.

Chen Yuan flew onto a snake, ready to end its life.

However, he suddenly paused mid-attack.

He stared blankly to the side.

There was a fruit there.

A single fruit wasn't usually something to be curious about.

Fruits were everywhere in this forest.

But why was Chen Yuan staring at it?

Because its color was so vibrant, to what extent?

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was luscious and dripping.

Smooth, plump, and eye-catching.

It stood out in stark contrast to the entire forest.

Its appearance was so tempting that Chen Yuan couldn't help but want to taste it.

But in the game, without hands or feet, he could only look.

If it were in the real world...

Chen Yuan would be eager to pick it and taste it. As if!

Such things were only pleasant to look at in the game; in reality, Chen Yuan would stay as far away as possible.

Something that looked so good was surely dangerous, extremely dangerous.

Not to mention whether it was poisonous, there might be maggots inside! Ugh.

So only a fool would think of tasting it in reality, but in the game, it was different!

Upon closer inspection, Chen Yuan realized the fruit had a name.

Glazed Fruit!

He thought it was just a simple forest decoration.

Not only did the fruit have a name, but the tree it grew on also had a name.

Magic Light Tree.

Glazed Fruit, Magic Light Tree! Both had names.

This proved that it was definitely something players could acquire, either a quest item or a medicinal fruit!

However, Chen Yuan's parasitism skill hadn't cooled down yet, so he dismissed the idea of controlling the snake to take a bite to see if it would be poisoned.

Since he couldn't obtain it, Chen Yuan didn't just stand by idly; he continued his arduous journey of instantly killing snakes.

He launched a normal attack at the snake beneath him.

-

185

[Ding] "System: You killed a level 7 snake, gaining 200 Experience Points."

Nothing else, how pitiful.

Change hosts, continue.

Skill, Bite!

-

348

[Ding] "System: You killed a level 7 snake, gaining 200 Experience Points, 1 Talent Point."

Heaven be praised, finally another Talent Point.

Finally, he had accumulated 20 Talent Points.

Chen Yuan quickly upgraded Dependency.

[Talent Two] "Dependency Level 3 (0/40): Must attach to a host to survive. When the host dies, randomly search for 6 hosts nearby and choose one to attach to within 10 seconds; every hour, gain one opportunity to randomly select a host."

The Dependency skill upgraded from level 2 to level 3, and the number of random host selections increased from 3 to 6.

Most importantly, there was an additional opportunity to randomly select a host.

This meant that Chen Yuan no longer had to wait for the host to die before switching to the next host.

When encountering a BOSS, he no longer had to anxiously pray to select the BOSS.

Now he could directly fly onto the BOSS.

Even though the cooldown was a long hour, Chen Yuan was still extremely delighted.

Now he could finally take the initiative and attack.

Spring had arrived.

Chen Yuan was rejoicing.

"Rustle, rustle, rustle."

Sounds kept coming from afar.
