I'm a Stingray? Chapter 209 - The Humanoids
[+450 points of mana][+328 points of mana][+799 points of mana][+487 points of mana]The system kept flashing these notifications at the corner of his eye, even after he experienced the flash upgrade. Although this amount didn't sound like a lot considering that he was within the holy, old city now, it was still a lot for an anglerfish! This was the very pinnacle of what this species could harvest.At this rate he might have another flash upgrade after a couple of minutes, and he was very excited about it! He waited for his mana pool to fill up, and in the meantime, he was looking at the paragraphs that the system flashed in front of him.[Congratulations! Your pool now bears blue, Yersinia Mana! That's the special name for having a level eight mana quality in the Fintelus’ Apprentices realm of mana! Yersinia, is an earlier version of the Bubonic Plague, and here in terms of mana quality, it too suggests explosive power, or, evolving power to be exact! It’s labeled as such, because
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 210 - The Monument
Performing covert actions was never easy, and it was especially difficult for a scheming anglerfish. He was having a hard time here!Nevertheless, it was best to be covert given the circumstances that they were in. Since a massive wyrm risked its own neck to keep Timothy, and his team away from the ruins, it was easy to put two and two together, and take the wyrm's warning seriously!It was absolutely stupid to attack the dark mages here directly, not unless the team knew what they were dealing with, and this was what brought Timothy here. He came alone, and as for everyone else, he created a temporary den where his team, and the platoon could hide in, as they didn't have to tag along! They were half-a-kilometer away from the ruins, and they were absolutely safe.Timothy's slaves have been ordered to protect his friends, and they were to carry out those orders to the end, regardless of what Timothy shapeshifted into today. Even if he turned into a mere ant, the influence he had on tho
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 211 - Hunched Humans
“Great! As if I had a lot of mana to begin with!” Tim remarked, sarcastically.The function of the pyramids in front of him was very clear now, they were purely put here to convert the abundant mana around them! It converted blue mana into dark mana!The humanoids here were practitioners of the dark, arcane arts, there was no doubt about it now. If they weren’t, there was virtually no other reason for them to convert the mana to begin with!“How the hell am I supposed to stop whatever these damned pyramids are doing?” He asked himself.Timothy had taken the responsibility of making these ruins safe to access, he assumed this task, but right now, he was stumped. There was no easy way to approach the task without risking his neck!“System…?” He pressured her, hoping for an answer, or for some help. [The pyramids are externally influenced by various sources, so I cannot help you with this matter. Considering that there’s an altar here, these pyramids might as well be down right demonic
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 212 - Exploded Geezer
Timothy absolutely dominated his six opponents, he had the upper hand, and performed accordingly. However, he was still far away from completing the mountain of tasks that he was stacking above his shoulders!For example, if he ran into an opponent that was more powerful than him, he'd be dead, so he was working on the not-dying part. He degraded one of the fresh corpses in front of him, took its skull, and started shaping it into a helmet, because quite frankly, he didn’t want to risk getting hit on the head by anything physical.Dark mages didn’t often use physical means to attack their opponents, but he didn’t want to take any chances! Since the pyramids had depleted most of his mana pool, he had to take various measures of protecting himself from danger!Timothy suited up in just under half-a-minute, and then he grunted. “Okay… this armor should be enough to prevent me from getting killed. Now I just gotta get out of here, cause these bastarding pyramids aren't doing me any good…”
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 213 - "Me wait"
Timothy surfed down towards the spot where that old man's corpse was supposed to be, and inhaled the numerous powers that the said corpse had left behind. Initially he expected to absorb two or three powers, considering that each essence of these powers was pitch black, and therefore looked identical to one another, but that was not the case. He absorbed seventeen new powers, or, fractions of those seventeen powers at least!“Hell yeah!” He shouted, as he saw the system list out the numerous powers. “That geezer was fucking amped! Too bad he didn't have anything that would help him resist my thunder bolts, hehe.”Timothy celebrated even though he was in the middle of a battle, and worst of all, this battle just kept escalating! Other dark mages had heard the commotion, or the thunderbolts, so he was quickly surrounded by fifty men and women!“How many of you bastards are down here?” He grunted, and then he tried to pave an escape route for himself.Timothy was successful with his plan
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 214 - The second bracket
Timothy shot down three blue planktons. He was very effective at killing them, however, the system wasn't giving him any points for it. She just accumulated the points that he had earned by killing those Hunched Humans earlier on.[You've accumulated a total of 49,000 system points. The Hunched Humans that you killed today, really buffed up your sum.] She beeped, but Timothy didn’t care much for these points, because he didn’t like the number four.“Good,” He said, and continued attacking other planktons.There were hundreds of them in front of him, and he attacked even those who weren't bothering him. He assumed every plankton was an enemy of his, so they had to be destroyed! He killed tens of them, and at some point he got bored of doing this, so he stopped killing them. His decisions weren’t thought out all that much.However, it didn’t matter what he did to these planktons, as long as he remembered the main plan! Regarding that matter, after what felt like an eternity later, he dec
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 215 - MQ, 400
Timothy snuck out of the hole that he had crawled in, and he came out of his hiding spot with a plan in mind. He was going to remain in hiding, yes, but the most important part of his plan was to snipe the Hunched Humans in front of him, one at a time! He couldn’t face all of them alone, so it was best to be sneaky about this, he had to be cautious.The idea to kill them all, wasn't exactly new, but it was still contemporary. It stemmed from the fact that he had to make this place safe for his friends to enter, because they're yet to see the full benefits of these ruins, and he didn't want to deprive them of these benefits, it would be unfair! Once he killed the tens of dark mages that were working in the area around him, he could then bring his friends here, safely!“Haha! You lonely bastard!” He celebrated, after he killed a dark mage who had separated himself from their group.Timothy was using the Bone Multiplier ability to get the job done, as it was the most effective power if h
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 216 - Specialized Reanimator
“Demons, eh? I'm gonna put this aside for now.” He decided, as much as this decision hurt his curious nature.Timothy continued to browse through the various powers that would let him summon other creatures, and or ghosts, and he was really impressed by them! He never used abilities like these before, so he didn’t want to rush with them, as he needed some time to figure out the mana channels within the essences of the abilities if he was to create something of his own, something dependable. “A cow? Why the hell would they summon cows?” He cackled, as he observed one of the dark abilities. “And why is this shit considered a dark ability?! Shit’s making me think that the cow produces poisonous milk!”This was not the best time to summon a cow, considering that he was underwater, so he avoided it. Instead, he focused more on the fact that he got a good, comprehensive idea of how summoning abilities were categorized. It had four categories that he was aware of, meaning that a dark mage

The merchant that was trying to bargain with the team remained calm, he didn’t lose his composure. He was old, and his body seemed dried out, so surely he had made plenty of much tougher sales throughout his lifetime. Therefore, his answer was equally sharp, “The root may be worth ten kilos of gold in the market, but it’s difficult to sell it unless you know your way around. To the right people, I can sell it for as much as thirty kilos, if we’re being honest? I’m offering to give you five kilos of gold, because I know that you won’t be able to find a better deal anywhere else across the City of Fik.”Such honesty stunned Timothy, he did not expect it. However, he had also kept his cards close to his chest, and had tried to sell a single root only, rather than more. He never revealed that he had four hundreds of them stashed away safely. With that considered, he was able to argue, and pitched, “What if I said that I have fifty of them to sell, sir great merchant?”“That’s virtually
Chapter 346 - The gold value of Mana Roots
The team was accepted into the city, as the guards didn’t cause them any trouble. They left their dragons in the stables that were close to the city walls, and the stables were quite big, as they were meant to keep hundreds of horses, so the eight dragons fit in there just well, despite their various, big sizes. Timothy got close to Billy the dragon, and said, “We’re gonna have to leave you guys here for a while. Now, I want you to behave, but if anyone tries something funny, just burn them, and head back home.”Billy nodded in response. The team then separated with the dragons, and made their way into the city. They were dumbfounded by how big this place was, and it was definitely bigger and more packed than the cities that they had visited back in the micro-universe of Valporovus! The most common thing that they could see were three story buildings, which were made both with stone, or wood. The wooden ones were likely supported by thick, wooden beams, otherwise it would be difficu
Chapter 345 - The City of Fik
In the magic world, being a team was oftentimes more beneficial than raw-dogging the challenges of the world alone. No two mages were the same, on the count on how random the magical world could be, so a team could benefit from each other’s perspectives, and arsenal.Timothy, and most of his friends, had progressed through worldly settings that were no different from complete anarchy. Timothy started out in the ocean, where laws of any sorts were unheard of. Everyone tried to kill everything, even if they felt slightly threatened, so his earlier upbringing had certainly been tough. Magical stagnation was uncommon in this magical world however, as long as one managed to survive for long enough. Whoever survived was bound to progress eventually, so Timothy had mastered a good part of the ocean already and he even had a whole coral reef to call his own. He considered himself the owner of the reef that he had popped into months ago, or at least, he was its great ambassador. He was the fi
Chapter 344 - The distribution of the Mana Roots
Timothy and the team were finished harvesting the mana roots. Individually, they got every benefit that they could get out of this farm, and despite the fact that the level of each team member was all over the place, creating a sort of unbalanced arsenal between them, they still were very pleased with the results!Neither of them knew where Genta was, or had gone to, and judging from the context of her disappearance, it didn’t look like she was coming back anytime soon, or ever. The best theory was that she had somehow traveled forwards in time, because her original timeline was several thousand years into the future, but although that theory sounded plausible, the fact remained that time travel was unheard of in the magical world. Even Garry, who was a literal Arch Mage himself now, was oblivious of such a thing as traveling forward in time!Sure Timothy could manipulate time to some degree, but he had a portal. He could manipulate time only under certain settings, through the portal
Chapter 343 - Fortana, the Dragon Slayer
Fortana was the last to rise from the farm of mana roots. She had taken longer than everyone else to level up, which was a bit understandable on the count that most of her mana pool consisted of dark mana, but her friends were still concerned. They braced themselves, and fully expected that Fortana would find some random reason to attack them! At the very least, she was likely strong enough now to not depend on anyone else anymore. Once she rose out of the farm, her long blonde hair followed suit, waving across the waters. To their surprise, she seemed quite calm, she wasn’t hostile, but her calm composure was almost like a trick, because moments later, she did something weird.Somehow, she created a small squid within seconds, and then destroyed the squid moments later. She didn’t just kill it, she disintegrated it, and the only thing that was left behind was the squid’s ink. She then poked her head into the free-floating ink, waved it, and in turn, a bunch of the black ink went int
Chapter 342 - "I did this thing"
Amongst the three mages that were still harvesting the roots of the farm, Gustav was the first one to stand. Ortana, and Fortana remained in the farm, and were still harvesting every drop of mana that they could get.It was concerning that the two of them were still harvesting mana, but the rest of the team couldn’t do anything about it. It was best not to interrupt them, and if they somehow died while harvesting, then they would die in the best way possible. The euphoria that any mage would feel here, in this farm, topped the euphoria that any other type of death could cause! At some point, everyone expected that Fortana and Ortana would die today, and they started believing this after every other minute that passed without these couple of ladies rising from below the roots. Everyone waited in anticipation, but when Gustav arose, he managed to distract the rest of the group quite thoroughly!“How are ya, Guss?” Tim asked, as he noticed that his friend had this crazy look in his eye.
Chapter 341 - 5-5-6-7
Genta disappeared. The reason behind her disappearance was difficult to figure out, but for now, no one in the team really cared to know. They were all busy reaping the benefits of the great amount of roots that she had left behind, and Genta had spent most of her time here yelling at everyone anyway, so no one really cared if she never came back. She was a great stepping-stone for everyone’s progress today, and so they were to remember her as a great old mage whose mere willpower alone changed several, or potentially tens of lives for the better good. However, they’d also be happy to never see her again. Soon enough, Garry was done leveling up, so he stood up and swam away from the farm. He sat close to Arvena, and tried to balance the sheer amount of great, euphoric emotions that the roots gave him.“At whit realm did ye git to?" He asked.“The sixth one,” She answered.Impressed, he said, “Och sae you’re a stoatin, Expert Mage noo huh? That’s gey crakin'!”Arvena nodded in respons
Chapter 340 - Genta's disappearance
The farm of eight-hundred mana roots bore benefits that a handful of mages could not fully harvest by themselves. The roots were fullgrown, they were adult roots, so the amount of mana they bore each was within the millions, so they wouldn't even be able to harvest them even if they were all Arch Mages!Odds were that a mana bracket would hit them ages before they could harvest the roots. Genta had planted many of them, because she had expected to harvest them once they were just a few months old, where the yield would have been about ten times less, if not lower. She didn't account for a giant jellyfish to come and boost the roots into later adulthood, though, she wasn’t complaining either, because now they didn’t have to be savvy with the roots.The mana roots were so big that they had intertwined with one another. Their thick, three-foot wide arms slithered across the farm, and at this point the farm even looked like a labyrinth that had no beginning or end! It was difficult to eve
Chapter 339 - The Yield
The team had eight-hundred full grown Mana Roots at their disposal. It was time to harvest the fruit of their labor, and it so happens that their labor included immense battles and worldwide travel, so the rewards that they were about to reap seemed all the more meritable!However, they were also aware that eight-hundred roots were too much for them to harvest all together, as the roots outnumbered them around ninety to one! They couldn’t harvest the entire farm even if they tried, so after chatting with Genta for a little bit, they came to the agreement to let the goblins, Coral Destroyers, and basically every other species who had helped form, or protect this farm one way or the other to have a slice of this goodness! It was only fair, as by all odds, the nine of them wouldn't be able to harvest even half of the roots, nonetheless all of it.Anyway, In order to avoid messing with each other's mana intake, the group spread apart from each other, laid in the comfortable, sandy ground
