Thinking it silently, the Attribute Panel automatically appeared before Lilith.

"Ding! Congratulations Player 10086, your Spirit has exceeded 10 points, breaking through the Biological Constraint. You may awaken your inherent Biological Attribute. Do you wish to awaken immediately?"
"Biological Attribute?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Lilith's ferocious face, immediately replaced by coldness.
"Awaken."
"Ding! Congratulations Player 10086, you have awakened the Blood Attribute. This attribute requires self-study and development."
"Blood Attribute, huh..."
Listening to the system prompt, a red light flashed in Lilith's eyes, and she grinned.
"This feeling of power is great. At least I no longer have to worry about natural predators."
She allocated that single precious Free Attribute Point to Speed; extreme mobility is fundamental to survival and victory.
Raising her head, Ultrasound and Thermal Imaging silently activated, and the world instantly reconstructed in Lilith's eyes!
The cold contours of the rocks, the subtle temperature differences in the air currents, and even the faint heat emitted by the Beetles crawling in the Cave corners.
Every detail was reflected in Lilith's mind, and these images collectively wove a precise, three-dimensional sensory network.
"Whoosh—!"
Lilith spread her 8-meter Bat Wings, the powerful force whipping up a gust of wind.
Her massive body was no longer a burden, but a symbol of strength.
Lilith, like a streak of white lightning, rapidly traversed the complex Cave passages, reaching the long-awaited outside world in just a moment.
Sunlight pierced the tree canopy, and the air was fresh.
Lilith raised her ferocious head, feeling the warmth of the sunlight on her Scales.
A sense of breaking free from shackles and being reborn surged in her heart, but she quickly suppressed the emotion, letting her cold Hunter instinct regain dominance.
She wasn't strong enough yet; her current self couldn't ignore the threat of Thermal Weapons, so she needed more biological genes!
The Ultrasound feedback immediately locked onto a powerful life signal a kilometer away.
Thermal Imaging outlined its robust silhouette—muscular and radiating ample heat. A Brown Bear, over 1.5 meters tall at the shoulder and weighing at least 400 kilograms, was locked onto by Lilith.
Folding her Bat Wings, Lilith's massive body immediately soared high, flying above the mountain range and rapidly approaching her prey... Meanwhile, in the Dead Leaf Forest.
A robust Brown Bear was using its sharp claws to dig open a rotting tree trunk, searching for plump Insect Pupae.
Its physique appeared bloated, with thick layers of fat accumulated on its body, clearly preparing for the winter.
Having stored enough fat, the Brown Bear was now looking for alternative food to change its palate.
Suddenly, the Brown Bear stopped digging. Its massive body stood upright, its huge head looking around nervously, its eyes full of vigilance.
Biological instinct allowed it to sense a danger approaching—a strong danger that made it feel the threat of death.
But within its line of sight, it couldn't detect any danger.
"Roar!"
The Brown Bear roared angrily at the empty forest, seemingly warning, seemingly fearing, because at this very moment, the sense of crisis surged in its heart, making it restless.
"Crack—!"
The sound of cracking branches echoed, and a powerful wind pressure struck from above. The Brown Bear immediately raised its head, looking toward the sky.
A white figure tearing through the branches descended from high altitude. This suddenly appearing creature was completely beyond the Brown Bear's comprehension. At this moment, it finally knew where the danger was coming from.
Unfortunately, it was already too late.
The Brown Bear only felt a foul wind rush toward its face, and a massive shadow enveloped it. Immediately after... "Pffft!"
Lilith's strong hind claws, like steel hooks, fiercely embedded themselves into the Brown Bear's thick shoulder flesh and skin.
The immense impact force immediately slammed the upright Brown Bear onto the ground.
Bat Wings flapped, and the Brown Bear was lifted into the air like a chick. Amidst the Brown Bear's struggles, Lilith viciously slammed it against the trees ahead.
"Crack—!"
The large tree snapped. The 400-plus-kilogram Brown Bear was thrown into a daze, but it ignored the pain, immediately adjusted its body, quickly stood up, looked at Lilith, and roared with its bear mouth wide open.
There was no pity in Lilith's eyes. She dove down again, ignoring the Brown Bear's swipes, and her foreclaws slammed directly onto the Brown Bear's chest, pinning it firmly to the ground!
"Roar—!!"
The Brown Bear let out a painful, furious roar, struggling wildly with strength capable of overturning a car.
But under Lilith's suppression—with her 22 points of Strength and 23 points of Constitution—the Brown Bear's struggles seemed pathetically weak.
Once Strength exceeds 10 points, every subsequent point increase is massive. In terms of strength, Lilith completely overwhelmed this Brown Bear, which weighed over 400 kilograms.
The Brown Bear's paws struck Lilith's body, making dull thudding sounds, but they couldn't penetrate her defense at all.
There was no emotion in Lilith's red Vertical Pupils, only the coldness of a predator.
Feeling the struggles of the prey beneath her, the pair of massive Curved Blades along the edges of her Bat Wings took on a flowing, dark red sheen!
Lilith's internal Blood Essence was extracted, compressed, and injected into them. The Wing Blade emitted dense energy, flashing with red light, and sliced directly across the Brown Bear's thick neck.
"Shh—!"
There was no loud crash, only a terrifying dull sound of flesh, blood, and bone being instantly sliced apart.
The Brown Bear's frantic roar abruptly ceased.
The massive bear head separated from the body, and scalding bear blood surged out from the severed neck like a fountain, staining the earth red.
The headless, massive body twitched violently a few times before completely losing all vitality.
The battle, from start to finish, lasted no more than ten seconds.
Facing a Brown Bear weighing over 400 kilograms, Lilith was capable of absolute slaughter.
Releasing her claws, Lilith stood beside the still-warm Brown Bear corpse, her red Vertical Pupils fixed on the spurting blood.
She lowered her head, opened her serrated Fangs, and took a bite out of the Brown Bear's corpse. This was the first time she had tasted meat since becoming a Vampire Bat.
Against Lilith's sharp teeth, the Brown Bear's flesh and blood were easily ripped off.
At the same time, a warm current replenished the blood Lilith had just consumed.
This warm current was the Brown Bear's blood. The Blood Attribute maximized the utilization of the prey's blood to replenish her own consumption.
But Lilith knew this was only the most basic application of the Blood Attribute. Based on the Main God's instruction for self-development, the Blood Attribute's function was far more extensive, especially with the appearance of Magic Power.
It made the whole world fantastical. In the future, she might even be able to develop world-destroying magic.
In a short amount of time, Lilith completely devoured the entire Brown Bear corpse, leaving behind only a bloody skeleton.
[Devoured Brown Bear, obtained Brown Bear Gene Fragment +1. Current Brown Bear Gene completion: 0.5%]
"0.5%, huh."
In other words, to obtain the complete Brown Bear Gene, she would need to devour at least two hundred Brown Bears.
Searching for two hundred Brown Bears in this mountain range would be a massive undertaking for Lilith.
But in order to obtain the physically powerful Brown Bear Gene, Lilith had already begun planning her hunting strategy for the next few days.
Judging by the last three Mutations, the larger the creature, the higher the attributes granted after Mutation.
The Brown Bear satisfied her current needs in terms of both size and strength/defense.
