MMORPG: Rise of The Dungeon Master.



As the trial started, different information about snakes started flowing through his mind. Scanning the surrounding heat, he concluded that the sun had just come up, and he was feeling sleepy and tired. 

One thing common in all kinds of snakes was they were cold-blood creatures, and they needed to bask in sunlight to maintain their body temperature. He moved around in search of a hiding spot full of sunlight. 

He easily found a gap between two big rocks. He coiled and started basking in the sunlight. That was all he had to do for the day. 

Now that he found the perfect spot, there won't be any problem spending the day in the forest. The main thing was not day, but night. If big animals woke up in the day, then the night was paradise for many small creatures like snakes.

He focused on his body. It was only 30 cm in length and he had two large fangs in his mouth. It was good news he belong to the venomous type. 

It same as the last life. There was no change to it so far. Now he did not know about the exact condition to get an excellent result. But hunting and energy conservation might be the correct answer.

The cold blood creature only hunts when necessary and they could live up to many days or even months from only eating one time. In his last life, he hunted a small injured baby rat, and that was enough to give him a high evaluation grade. 

He talked with other dungeon masters and from them; he came to know that they also get the same kind of similar trials. In their case, they had to do certain tasks while being some kind of creature from their dungeon. 

Combing all of these with the behavior of cold-blood creatures, he concluded that he had to hunt for something big with minimal effort. There was no point in doing the extra killing of an enormous creature that would only decrease his evaluation.

He continued to brainstorm about how to consume less energy while hunting. There were many advantages and disadvantages a snake's body had compared to a human body. 

First was the poor vision, but that covered up with their ability to sense heat. This would give him an advantage at night. 

Then he had an extra sensitive tongue. The snake tongue could even taste the air particle and tell the difference between them. Snakes also had the power to sense the vibration coming from the ground surface. 

Then again, their normal hearing was quite poor. If we consider human senses as balance senses, then Snake's high and low senses made them silent predators.

Thinking about all that, he was confident that he could easily hunt a big prey this time. But he had this feeling that simple hunting would not give him the highest SSS ranking. 

There was a mystery to this trial. A dungeon master had a chance to become the same monster he ruled over. There was definitely some hidden benefit here or something to learn from here.

He stopped thinking much and let himself be devoid of any external thoughts to experience what it was like to be a snake. 

Time passed Sun reached its peak and then started going down. After 14 hours, everything around him lost the heat. 

Hisss,

He came out of his coiled position. His forked tongue taste the air and he found some familiar scent in them. His instinct was telling him to move in the direction these scents coming from. 

He looked around for other activities around him and slowly moved toward the direction this sent came from. After moving some distance, he noticed bright red spots in his vision. These red spots were moving around in the blue cold region. 

He moved his tongue and sense the smell coming from these red spots. Slowly, he started moving toward these red spots. After reaching a certain distance, he stopped moving and just continued to stare at these red spots. 

He was about to rush when he stopped. 'no let's not end this opportunity so fast.' He knew snakes had to hide once they eat their prey as they became weakest during the time they digest their food. 

He made this mistake in his last life. He slowly moved and hid under what felt like a tree root and continued to stare at his food. 

Snakes were the top predators of the night but in not like they were at the top of food change. It would be different for those large non-venomous snakes, but for small snakes like him, there were many predators. 

  He did not encounter anyone in his last life did not mean it would be the same this time. He continued to stare at the red moving dot for hours with no change in surrounding. After some hours without him knowing, his heartbeat became slow, and his breathing rate decreased. 

He became one with his surrounding. More time passed. He was about to take action, but then he paused. Something did not seem right. He did not know exactly, but he felt he should wait.

He continued to wait for more time and then.

Hissed! Hissed! He heard a hissing sound from his surrounding. He saw a long, almost blue creature moving closer to the red rots and then with a sudden moment it latched on one of the red big red dots. 

This made all the red dots move away from there.

He still not came out and stared at the 2-meter-long snake hissing loudly.

The enormous snake was about to follow the red dots when a massive red ball fell from the sky and picked the long snake and flew with it. 

He was stunned at his scene, but his body was still in a calm state. It was hard to believe that two predators were waiting for him there. After some time staying there frozen, he came out from under the tree and moved toward the direction the small red dots moved.

After some time he found a half red half blue dot, reaching closed he found a half-dead rabbit struggling for its life. It was quite big that he was not sure if his poison would work such efficiently on this big size prey. 

  He moved closed and bit the rabbit's neck and released a small amount of poison on its body. The rabbit died after some time and he opened his mouth to swallow, but it was hard to fit such a large rabbit. 

He applied some more force on his jaws and it expanded more. He was able to swallow the rabbit completely. After that, he looked around and found a small hole in the ground. Not wasting time, he swiftly moved inside the hole and coiled his body to let it digest the prey. 

This trial reminded him of the war of patience. Slowly, time passed, and the sunlight came again. Everything became foggy as he found himself back in the darkness.
