I'm a little bit cute after transforming.

Wang Lei talked a lot with Gene in Gene's cave.

At first, Wang Lei just praised him in various ways, but as he continued to praise him, he started to complain, telling how miserable he was and how he was being hunted down, and that he just wanted to live!

Gene simply listened quietly, offering a few words of comfort occasionally.

Wang Lei didn't know why he was talking to Gene about these things. Maybe it was because he hadn't spoken to anyone in a long time, or maybe it was because Grandpa Gene was very kind.

Wang Lei fell asleep as he was talking. He hadn't slept in so long, and once he relaxed, he fell asleep instantly.

Although I wasn't physically tired, I was constantly on edge.

Gene looked at the sleeping little spider in front of him and slowly shook his head.

"Sigh~ What an innocent child. Born in this cruel maze, to have made it here, he must have suffered a lot!"

Pick up a blanket and gently cover Wang Lei with it.

Wang Lei hadn't slept so peacefully in a long time. He stretched and felt refreshed.

Only then did he realize that he was sleeping in the same bed as Wang Lei, with a blanket covering him. Wang Lei felt a lump in his throat; he hadn't felt this kind of care in a long time, and it warmed his heart.

Even in my original world, it had been a long time since I had experienced this. When I was in high school, I was quite rebellious, my grades were at the bottom, and I had deep conflicts with my family, who were always lecturing and scolding me.

Setting aside my thoughts, I looked around. Yesterday, I was too busy pouring out my grievances to the old man.

The surroundings were very simple. In the middle of the cave was a round table with a tea set on it, a few chairs on the side, and a large bookshelf filled with books not far away.

Wang Lei had casually flipped through a few books in the past, but they were all filled with unfamiliar characters. Although he had acquired the common language, he was still completely clueless about the local writing system.

Inside the cave were several wardrobes and chests, and a desk, but Wang Lei couldn't just look at these personal belongings.

These items are clearly not things that can be found in a maze.

After wandering around for a while, Wang Lei walked out of the cave.

After passing through a magic circle at the cave entrance, I arrived outside. Looking back at the magic circle, I realized it blocked out the outside world, making it impossible to see inside.

'It's quite convenient!'

Looking around, there were three more similar caves nearby.

In front of the cave was an open space with two altars in the middle.

There were two arrays, one black and one white, on the altar. Directly opposite the altar was a staircase leading upwards, which was obviously where he had come down.

There were many forks in the road around the open space, and Wang Lei walked into one of them.

After walking for a while, the view suddenly opened up, revealing a vast space inhabited by various dragons.

Some of the dragons nodded in agreement when they noticed that Wang Lei was not attacking.

'Did the old man already make arrangements? That's quite considerate!'

I was originally planning to find some monsters on the fourth floor to grind and reach level 40 as soon as possible, but it seems my hopes are dashed.

Wang Lei has no choice but to go to the third floor to fight the 'shrimp soldiers and crab generals'!

After killing a 'turtle prime minister' who had retreated into its shell, Wang Lei spent the rest of the day wandering around the third floor, only attacking monsters when he encountered them, without making any special efforts to find them.

Now that I know the real way to get out, I'm not in such a hurry anymore.

Calculating that it was about time, Wang Lei turned back to see if the old man had returned.

When it reached the fourth floor by going up the steps, it saw four people sitting on a large cloth in the open space, drinking tea!

Upon noticing Wang Lei's appearance, Doris waved.

"Come here, little one, everyone's waiting for you!"

"Hmph! To make the noble dragons wait for you, how arrogant!"

Franklin's voice came through.

Old man Gene glanced at Franklin, who immediately shut up.

Gene smiled and said, "Come sit here!"

Wang Lei asked in his mind:

"Grandpa Gene, what are you planning to do?"

It walked over and sat down in the empty seat that had been left for it between Grandpa Gene and Doris.

"You'll know soon!"

Then Gene waved his hand, and the tea set on the cloth disappeared. Then he waved it again, and all kinds of delicacies appeared, including roast suckling pig, roast duck, steak, and all kinds of food that he had never seen before.

Wang Lei's mouth dropped open, his eyes sparkled, and he almost jumped up.

Doris said with a smile:

"Our teacher went out all night last night and bought a lot of food in the human city. It's been so many years since our teacher has gone out to bring us food! We're so envious!"

There was a hint of jealousy in his words.

The other two dragons stared at the food with shining eyes. Although they dragons could live without eating and could simply absorb the surrounding elements, they couldn't resist the deliciousness of human food!

Hearing Dorisia's words, Wang Lei hugged Grandpa Gene, tears and snot streaming down his face.

Gene affectionately patted Wang Lei's head.

"Okay, okay, if you like it, you can eat it every day from now on."

Jilong looked at Wang Lei with envy. The teacher was always very strict. He had never spoiled them like this before!

Wang Lei grumbled as he held a duck leg in one hand and a steak in the other, taking a bite from each.

"Mmm~ This duck leg smells so good! Mmm~ This steak is so delicious~"

Wang Lei ate most of the food, while Ji Long only ate a small portion. It wasn't that they didn't want to eat, but they didn't dare under Gene's cold gaze!

So love disappears, right? No! Love doesn't disappear, it just moves on...

For the next period of time, Wang Lei lived a very comfortable life. He would go to the third floor to fight monsters during the day, come back to eat in the afternoon, and sleep at the old man's place at night to chat with it.

Finally, on this day, while Wang Lei was grinding monsters on the third floor, the system's voice rang in his mind:

'Ding! The transformation conditions have been met. Proceed immediately?'

Wang Lei did not choose to transform into human form now, but immediately ran back. It planned to transform into human form when it got back, since it was its first time and it didn't have much experience!

When it returned to the fourth floor and summoned all the dragons, it explained the reason, and all the dragons were shocked!

Franklin said sarcastically:

"You must be half asleep, talking in your sleep!"

Even Mr. Gene looked doubtful.

Wang Lei didn't want to explain anything. After finding out that there was nothing to be careful about when transforming, Wang Lei raised one of his forelimbs and shouted in his heart!

"Evolution~~~"

Then, select the attribute in your mind to immediately transform.

Suddenly, a strong light enveloped Wang Lei's entire body.

Wang Lei felt his senses slowly disappear and then slowly coalesce again. This feeling was very strange, as if his body had turned into countless particles and then coalesced back into a new body!

The four dragons around them stared in disbelief, each with the same thought in their minds.

'Is it really level 40?! What kind of monster is this?!'

A human body slowly took shape in the light!
