We return to Grass running away from giant anteater ant hybrids. Who have claws that could stab metal, and large mandibles that can spit out their tongue by a mile.

" Damn it!" He screams at the top of his lungs as he was being shot by the long, sticky tongues of the creatures.

The day would end with him victorious against the creatures, as their sticky tongue would miss their mark and would end up tangling on something else, like on a tree or to other tongues. Most of them would fight with each other, for the rights on their prey.

With this Grass easily fended himself off and was able to defeat the bugs with ease.

A quick stab here and there and the bugs twitched and died quick.

" Well that turned out great for me." He then enjoyed collecting all the loots from his kill and his stat bar would occasionally pop out and give him a prompt.

Grass has an inkling of an idea on how this works and what it is all about, but he wonders why he got poison resistance and assassination from, while The quick regen he knew that he broke it.

" I wonder what kind of a skill is being an earth pony though? 3? Does that make me a super earth pony? Or an extraordinary one?"

He was able to collect twelve sticky tongues 5 long claws and 10 mandibles. A carapace armor, and an ant eater ant helmet. He equiped it all and fancied the new garb he has. " I ain't gonna lie, this looks cool, although the suit stinks of bug corps, a bit of herbs and mint might wash off the stench.

He then practiced his crafting and checked if his skills would grow.

With the vines he had and newly acquired claws, he tied it together and made a hoof band of some sort, made of claws. " Ooo, i look so cool... But would this be helpful though?" He questioned.

A prompt would come out of the newly made item and an explanation was given. Apparently Grass made a high quality hoofguard, that adds additional stats, and abilities.

" Oooo not only do i look cool, i AM cool. Nice."

He continued to make 5 more, because some of it would break and ended up making 3 having all of his hooves equiped with it.

His handicraft skill increased and so did his stats as he equipped the guards on his hooves.

" I may stink but i feel untouchable!" Grass began making poses on the river, checking himself on how cool he looked.

" All i need now is a cape."

He wanted to make one but a cape made of grass or insect carapace wouldn't look too good. But what materials are there for him to make though? Perhaps another time. And besides.

He looked at the river once more. " I think this is enough already, adding a cape might be overkill and troublesome in this forest."

A scream would distract the childish stallion who kept on looking at himself in the reflection of the river.

" A scream of a fare mare requiring my assistance! And finally, someone to talk to! I must hurry and save her! Hu hu hu hu!" He ran frantically to where the scream was.

"Fear not! For i am here to save thee maiden!"

There, a mare was tangled up by the vines of a venus fly trap lion ant.

Her terror vanished as she was about to be saved. " Oh hero! Please save meA!?–" she choked as she saw the getup of her rescuer. Fear and terror returned to her face."- KYAAA! SAVE ME!"

Grass was to busy playing the hero to notice that he was scaring the mare and not by the lion ant venus fly trap.

He draws his dagger and charged towards the plant eating horse.

The Venus lion fly ant trap, sensed Grass's approach and began attacking him with its vines and sand attacks. But Grass was fast enough to dodge its attack.

Grass would see something red and shinning at the body of the creature, it was small but soft, probably it's weak point. So he rushed to that location and stabbed it with his claw bracelet so he could cling to the creature.

Stab!

The creature was in pain and threw the mare she holds, luckily the mare landed on top of the tree.

It continued to struggle and grab Grass off of its back, but he'd just cut the vines that tried to grab him. Eventually the creature would run out of vines and surrender from fatigue, giving Grass the chance to stab the weak spot of the creature with his dagger.

Sploosh!

Green blood would cover all over Grass as the creature bled to death.

A prompt would appear again.

" Would you like to collect the loot?"
He'd click yes.

" Phew, now that's done,. I must rescue the mare on top of the tree!"

He clawed his way up the tree to deliver the mare down the tree, but to her she looked like a hungry ant eater ant." Someone save me!!!"

" Please, fear not for i have came to–" click clank clonk -(20)-

It was a critical roll.

SMACK!

Grass was hit on the face with great force that it stunned and dropped him off the tree. Luckily his level and strength was strong enough to not get killed by the strike of the mare. But the poor Stallion felt like crying, from the slap of the mare.

But before he could stand up, the mare was able to escape and ran away from him.

" Was it the smell? Or perhaps i didn't have a cape?" The stallion questioned, as he rubbed his swollen cheeks.

New skill acquired.
