[Pt.2, ~5%]: "It must have only barely surprised the bite..."
surprised -> survived

[Pt.2, ~10%]: "The bloody slimes were suffering, but I wouldn't say it was in danger.
it was -> they were

@Terabyte

On the duplicate check at 42%, it's possible it should be

"to the best of our abilities, double check on your tools"

This possibility just makes me smile. A nice little play on the two checks.

It must have only barely surprised the bite,

~~“survived”~~ (already reported)
—

The bloody slimes were suffering, but I wouldn’t say it was in danger.

~~“they were”~~ (already reported)
—

they had antibodies against pathogens as well, more than it did for poisons.

“more than they did”
—

They can be used as an insect repellent in clothes and books, though.”

I don't know what you were going for here, but I doubt it was “books”. Maybe “beds”?

Part 2
5%: It must have only barely surprised the bite...
surprised → survived

7%: The bloody slimes were suffering, but I wouldn't say it was in danger. The bush snake poison was weak, and the bloody slimes had resistance to poison. Not as strong as a poison slime's, but it could handle some types of poison. / I decided to watch for a while and see how diluting the poison and providing nutrients helped it.
Subject plurality; are there multiple bloody slimes who consumed poison, or just one? Based on later language, it seems multiple slimes were affected.

41% "...After you've been treated to the best of our abilities, check ~~check~~ on your tools and make sure you're using them right!..."
→Remove doubled word

97%: Beck left my house with a hearty shout, unaware that his target didn't live anywhere around here.
Beck → Gazelle
