I'm a Stingray? Chapter 253 - 3, 6, 9
The situation that Timothy just faced, and suffered through, was beyond confusing. He didn’t know what to make of it, and come to think of it he was still shook up by the fact that he suffered numerous mental illnesses just a moment ago as well! A strong headache pumped on his forehead, and it wouldn’t go away regardless of how much he tried to heal himself. This headache also stemmed from the fact that he could not comprehend the creature, that odd being which he just met!“What was he? I’m almost convinced that a mana god came down to mess with me again.” He muttered.Timothy was always up for a challenge, but he feared that this challenge required a greater IQ than what he currently possessed! He was stumped for words, and didn’t know what to think.For that matter, he put this issue aside just for a moment, and took comfort in the fact that he wasn’t threatened by this being, per se. This meant that the needle universe of Purpureus Mundi belonged to him now, without anyone competi
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 254 - The endless, one-second tasks
After clearing up the castle from those several corpses, Timothy had four tasks in mind, each of which were more important than the other, but yet their prioritization varied. He didn’t prioritize the most important task, such as the deeper understanding of the flow of time, no, he thought that such a task would take a long time until he saw some benefits out of it, so he didn’t want to officially start it.Instead, he got to the castle library, and wanted to absorb as much information as he could about this universe, or, this specific timeframe of the universe. He wanted to do so for numerous reasons, and the reasons intertwined with his other ideas, including the most important one! He figured that if he understood this crimson time period of this place better, he might also be able to understand the needle universe more thoroughly, and therefore the passing of time. It wasn’t the worst plan in the world.The other couple of tasks revolved around alchemy, and telekinesis. He wanted
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 255 - Failed replica
The alchemical values of this needle universe were well-developed, and therefore, hyper-specific. He needed specific ingredients if he was to make potions, which may be a daunting task, considering that he needed to collect weeds as well, on top of other things. All of the weeds here were crimson red, so he wouldn’t be able to tell them apart from one another, not without racking up some experience first, at least. He couldn’t skip this part, regardless of how high his IQ was.The only comforting thing out of this topic was that the alchemical lab in the basement was whole, and it was ready to be used. All he needed were the proper ingredients, and this task was quite difficult itself, so he decided to put it aside for now. “Phantom Alchemy is looking a lot easier in comparison. I had all the ingredients on a shelf back there, but here, I have to collect a bunch of red, bastarding plants myself!” He thought, and he only got more and more irritated.Anyway, another book that he grabbe
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 256 - Mules
The attempt to create a telekinetic ability for himself, was an utter failure! He just couldn't do it, even though he technically understood what it would take to create one, he still couldn’t absorb it. This was infuriating!The lesser man would be tricked into trying hundreds of times to try and absorb the ability, but Timothy was no lesser man. He paused this task all together, and didn't want to pay attention to it again until he got some new information about the matter that he could use to alter his approach. He was hoping that the books in front of him could tell him anything useful, because right now, it was his best shot at understanding telekinetic abilities better!“It's funny how I refuse to waste time, even though time is at my advantage for once.” He kept rubbing his forehead, “It's ironic.”Timothy opened the book that he saw before, the one with pictures, and tried to make more sense out of it. Of course, he didn’t understand the language, because the letters themselve
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 257 - Real Mules
The team were getting used to this universe, regardless of how its crimson features weren't so easy on the eyes. The wonders of this place outweighed the dangers, so for once, they weren't as hesitant to be outside of the protective walls of the castle. This universe became Timothy's because of dumb luck alone, that's what he figured, so it was best to make the most use even out of such luck! At some point, he even started memorizing the types of plants around him, even though he didn't know their official name. This was a good sign, it hinted that he was more accepting of the needle universe's daunting features!“What's next on the list? This mule doesn't feel like muling anymore.” He asked.“Dominus Luminousanitunus,” Ortana followed along, “I can't quite recall what its name stands for, but it's a really prickly plant. We need its thick thorns, because they can densify the mana potions. I brought a thin sheet of paper to carry the thorns, so you should be happy, you won't have pri
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 258 - Super Ears
The needle universe of Purpureus Mundi was small, it was tiny even, considering that it was technically a universe with its own, special borders, but when one explored its lands on foot, it looked a lot bigger to the common observer. The dense forest, which was difficult to walk through without experiencing tens of cuts, made the surface of the universe seem all the more larger!The team didn’t have a great time exploring it, especially since they had taken the position of a pack mule throughout the first couple of hours of their foraging session. It wasn’t an easy trip, but thankfully, they were very close to collecting all of the ingredients on Ortana’s list, and afterwards, they could try and make some good mana potions with them. They started feeling quite enthusiastic! Ten minutes later, however, they saw something that put them right out of their stride. The team locked eyes with three, short dwarves, and they didn’t know how to feel about it, as this was quite unexpected! “Wh

“Aah, you mean drugs, right? Psychedelics? I think that's what you call them in your language.” Bindal followed along. His decent ears may even be linked to a higher intelligence, because he picked up on hints in a way that humans never could. “Come to think of it, most plants here will make you see weird things if you don’t cook them long enough, be warned. Unless you have a really good reason to eat an Air Root, I advise against it, because it can hurt you more than it can benefit you.”“Blue mana works in a weird way, Bindal. I need the root, because I'm going to craft a new ability for myself later on, and I can't use that ability unless I eat the root.” He said, and this time he was quite honest, because he started to believe that these dwarves were not hostile, unless provoked. “If you help me find one, and if the root does me good, consider it as the start of a beautiful relationship between us goblins, and you dwarves.”“Goblins… that's what you are? Okay then, your deal sound
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 260 - Carrot
Once consuming a bit of the Air Root, Timothy saw a lot of things. Subconsciously, he was happy that he didn't eat the whole thing, because it would've been life-threatening otherwise! Goblins weren't meant to eat psychedelics from another universe, from the looks of it. The hallucinations started out soft, with a few shadow people running around him, but then the shadow people were replaced by a giant, shadow snake! The snake was bigger than the average python snake, stretching over thirty feet, and it was terrifying to see such a thing under most circumstances, and this one was no exception!“Aah!” He first yelled, but then he realized. “Suck my dingleberries, snake! I'm in a cage, you can't eat me, haha!”The snake took no offense at what he yelled out, because the snake wasn't real. It just slithered across, and in front of the cell door a few times before it disappeared entirely. After it disappeared, Tim wanted to relax, but he couldn’t because he was struck by an overwhelming

Chapter 372 - Pure lava
Garry was led to the burrow of the groundhog he befriended. The burrow was close by, several meters away, and it didn’t quite look appealing from the outside, which was expected, as the burrow only had a couple of holes that they considered entrances.Well, one entrance was a fake one. It led nowhere, and it was used to keep predators busy, such as foxes.The other entrance led to the deep interior of the burrow, and quite frankly, Garry was astounded when he squeezed into it. This was no mere home with weak, dirt walls to hold it up, no, as everything within the burrow was enhanced by a six-inch layer of carved stone! The stone walls within the burrow weren’t placed randomly. They weren’t bumpy, but rather, they were smooth, and had these rows of symbolic words carved into it with a language that he could not understand. Nevertheless, he was impressed.“Woa…” Garry sighed, as he looked at the walls around him.“Why are you loafing about here?” The guiding groundhog asked. “This is o
Chapter 371 - AAAAA!!
As of recently, Garry was at the pinnacle of his life! He became an Arch Mage at a fairly young age, young for a demonic basilisk, at least, and ever since he got to this rank, he had eased up on a lot of his beliefs or principles, and was just enjoying his life.In hindsight, he didn’t care much to progress into the following rank, which was that of an Arch Magus. He figured that such a title was years away from him, if not decades, so he simply didn't think about it much. He wasn't worried that he stumbled into another mana bracket as soon as got to the third level of the seventh realm of mana. He was okay with it.Initially, one of the main reasons he chose to stay in this universe rather than going back to the universe of hell, was because he wanted to help Timothy, his former summoning master, progress. He felt indebted to help Timothy, because he had saved him from deadly wounds back in those old ruins, so he chose to stay.However, he couldn’t help Timothy progress all that muc
Chapter 370 - Dark Moon
“Freedom… it outweighs everything in the world, be it mana or gold.” She thought, as she breathed in the crisp air at the crack of dawn.Fortana was up in the sky, along with her dragon, and she was now about forty-kilometers away from the City of Fik. She decided to leave the city for a short while, for two reasons.Firstly, she and her team were stuck in the city for an undetermined amount of time. Timothy said that they’d be stuck in the City of Fik for around a month, but she figured that they’d be stuck there for several months, and she could not remain stationary for that long. She spent most of her life stuck in the Dungeons of the Old, and now that she had gotten a taste for freedom, she could simply not remain in one place for long, otherwise she would either sink into depression, or suffer through wave after wave of anxiety. She didn’t like it.The second reason why she left the city was primarily related to her self-absorbed need to improve her arsenal. Most Expert Mages ha
Chapter 369 - Bored
The eight-hundred Expert Mages that joined the frontline were quite capable. They were very useful on the count that Timothy and his team spent a few hours nudging them in the right direction, and once they got a hang of what to do, there was no stopping them!Ten more shapeshifted Ancient Sea Orcs had tried to attack the city before sunset, and the Expert Mages, otherwise known as the city's soldiers, had killed them all! They killed them without losing a single man or woman in the exchange of attacks.They discovered that the giant orcs had this odd ability to toss exploding fireballs around almost randomly, but they worked around it. Ten mages shot fireballs at the giants to overwhelm them, essentially blind them, and then twenty mages snuck below the line of fire, and froze the giants solid! This method worked like a charm, and Timothy had helped them develop it, so the mages didn't lose arms and legs during their many fights.The dark giants helped them. Fortana insisted for the
Chapter 368 - 800 Expert Mages
Timothy needed about ten minutes to explain to Cornelius everything that had happened over the past hour. It was quite difficult to explain such a complex matter to a man that did not care, but he got through to him eventually. At the end, Cornelius bluntly added, “I understand. You accidentally killed what, like five-hundred soldiers? It happens.”Furthermore, he added, “But if you want to mask your mistake properly, you best add a couple more frozen giants. You can sell your story easier to the city officials if you say that five giants went neck to neck with the city’s best mages.”“Right,” Tim nodded, and then he communicated with Fortana telepathically, and got the tip across to her, even though she was forty meters away. “Add two more frozen giants. It’ll be more believable.”While Fortana got into work, he turned to Cornelius, and asked, “You don’t care about this city at all, do you? Genuine question. Are you only loyal to yourself?”“I’m only loyal to my pool progression, an
Chapter 367 - Ablutions
“What the hell was that! Aren’t your giants supposed to be under your control?” Tim pressured.Rattled, Fortana answered, “They are under my control. However, if hundreds of people charge at them, they’re gonna defend themselves no matter what I say. Those stupid bastards dug their own grave.”“We have a big problem here,” He said. “Anyone who can put two and two together will think that we killed the soldiers. We cannot afford to be banished from the city.”Fortana was aware of that, and for a moment she felt helpless, however she then came up with an idea that sounded plausible. She swiftly created a giant, one that looked a lot like the Ancient Sea Orcs that they’ve been killing, but she avoided giving life to the giant, and just froze it in place.Afterwards she created two more of these replicas, and placed all of them in front of the soldiers along with the first, frozen giant. By all means, she was trying to fake a battle scene.“There you go,” She said. “The sea orcs froze the
Chapter 366 - 10 Dark Giants x 700 Humans
The barricade of ice that Timothy had created was holding strong. Now the barricade wasn’t much taller than the sea itself, but it was dense, it reached almost at the bottom of the ocean for the most part, so it was a great tool in terms of keeping the Ancient Sea Orcs away. The ice barricade may even last several days, on the count that the temperature around, and within the ice was quite low. The mild summer rays would need days to melt through it.Anyway, Timothy had hoped that the system would inform him that he had successfully killed one of these sea orcs, through the barricade alone. He was hoping that he had frozen one of them solid, but this did not appear to be the case.By all odds, any of the remaining sea orcs who originally planned to walk their way out of the sea, were scared off as soon as the temperature of the water around them dropped significantly. When Timothy thought about the matter this way, he further confirmed his theory that the creatures he was dealing wit
Chapter 365 - Hydro, tainting
Timothy initially wanted to take the battle to the sea, and kill every last Ancient Sea Orc out there. That was his idea this morning, however, they had barely thought about what they would do if the sea orcs brought the battle up here beyond the shores!It was normal that they hadn’t thought about it, because in a normal situation, sea creatures shouldn't walk. It wasn’t natural. Timothy was dumbfounded, however, he also understood that it was imperative that he and the team stayed here, in front of the beach, so as to prevent any remaining sea orc from attacking the City of Fik. They had to stay, until backup arrived.Today, the city had proved themselves utterly unprepared when it came to managing a disaster. It was evident, so the team couldn’t, in good conscience, leave their spot until a bunch of soldiers arrived here on the beach, and manned the frontline. “Don't be discouraged, guys.” Tim tried to motivate his team. “Remember all the gold we're gonna make. At the very least,
Chapter 364 - Timothy Tentacles
The team killed a shapeshifted Ancient Sea Orc a moment ago, and they were proud of it, as the battle had been swift, and their moves were effective. However, they did not expect to see four more of these giant monsters pop out of the sea! They were petrified.“Dragons, cover fire!” Timothy yelled out again.The dragons understood what those words meant now, so they didn’t have to be taught as much this time around in order for them to contribute. They started blasting fireballs towards the giants, and even though it was more difficult to push all four of them away, the contribution the dragons were putting into the battle was worthwhile! If not anything more, it served as a great distraction. Timothy then gathered his team of goblins, and the two giants that were also on his team, them being Garry and Gustav, and then they rushed into battle! The giants were less than forty meters away from them, and they wanted to take control of the situation before these monsters got the chance t
