Species status

Glitch knew about the sub-source. It was something that one player discovered by chance in his last life.

It was an incomplete energy that worked alongside one major source.

The moment one player discovered it, all the new players started using these sub-sources, as it gave them little advantage in certain subjects of their paths.

There were multiple sub-sources players discovered one after another, but he never heard of this special choice given to them.

As for his personal experience, that player discovered this sub-source thing only after he started his 5th attempt.

That's why he never got the chance to use them. He stopped thinking about his past life and clicked on the special choices.

[As mutation energy is the sub-source that needs the main source, the player needs to choose one of two choices.]

[1st: Crazy mutation: The species starts with one random main source and will get talented individuals for the sub-source only. They would not get any talent for anything outside the sub-source.]

[2nd: Way of mutation: The species starts with one random main source and will get talented individuals for the sub-source and the major source.]

He realized it related to passive talent present in the species.

The thing was developing any civilization was a super complex task that required lots of micro things.

To make things easy for players, there were three ways for the player to advance their species.

First was passive development that did not require player involvement.

All the individual creatures within the species had a certain chance that could be talented in different things.

Some creature in the species was genius in developing houses, fighting, entertainment, and more.

These creatures would contribute to the species' development by using there their talent to do things that would lead to the advancement of the species.

This was the only way of development that did not depend on the player's path.

Let's say a player chose the path of hierarchy so he would focus on society development. In his specie, there could be a few geniuses who were interested in developing magic spells that were related to the path of study.

Passive development was the most interesting development in that the player had little to no control, but this was the most stable development method.

In his last life, all the players got the way of mutation as the default choice.

In this choice, the species had the chance to get individual creatures that were talented in mutation, which was a branch of the evolution path.

The downside of this default choice was that there would be a decrease in talent related to other things. It was a trade-off many were willing to take.

As for the first choice: Crazy Mutation. This was his first time seeing this choice, and it was super interesting in his eyes.

If he understood it right, this choice would lead to his species only having talented creatures in mutation-related stuff.

Even the talents needed for developing major sources would compromise.

He stared at the special choices for a few minutes and then clicked on the first crazy mutation. It may lead to his species being less developed in other areas, but he knew the path of evolution was least dependent on source and species.

There was a saying that the strength of creatures from the path of study depended on what they learned.

The strength of creatures from the path of hierarchy depended on their family and environment.

The strength of the creature from the path of evolution depended on what they were born into.

The only way evolution path creature could break their power limit was through achieving some kind of evolution.

As he clicked on the screen, a warring sign appeared in front of him.

[Player Glitch, are you sure about your choice?]

He still did not know why he got this chance. But not thinking much, he decided to go for a specialization. This time he would not repeat the same mistake that he did in his last life.

Ding!

[Player Glitch chose the sub-source of Mutation. As you have chosen the crazy mutation, you will get one random major source.]

With that, a small window popped in front of him. Like those gambling slot machines, all the common sources started rotating in the window.

His eyes shone as he spotted magic among the random choices. He knew, out of all the choices, magic was best for him. Before he could think more, the widow stopped with a red droplet on the screen.

Ding!

[Player Glitch chooses the source of blood.]

He clicked his tongue as he did not get magic. Still, blood power was not that bad.

He knew that blood was a must for species like vampires and werewolf. Though he did not know much about this source, at least he was sure there would be multiple guides regarding this source.

After all, there was a time when those two species were most picked.

With all three choices done, the wall-size screen disappeared.

A new notebook-size purple window appeared in front of him.

Ding!

[Player Glitch from this moment forward, you are a group ruler.]

[Ding! Space village getting linked to the ruler.]

[Re-distribution of player power based on their species!]

[The first method to use blood source and mutation sub-source gets assigned to the Shakhans.]

[The Blood converging symbiosis is the first method your shakhans can use.]

[Player Glitch, as you get SS rank in the trial, you gain one SS rank species talent for your species.]

[Species talent: Tough life.]

Ding!

[Player Glitch, your species status is ready. Please say "Species status" to check.]

He was very excited to know the details of his first method and SS rank talent. Not wasting time, he said, "Species status."

He clicked on the method and talent to check their detail. The moment he read them, he started smiling.
