I'm a Stingray? Chapter 283 - New Goblin Tribe
With Lena as a brand new addition, the team of five became a team of six. In the world of magic, a bigger team oftentimes was better, even in this case where Lena was significantly weaker in comparison to the rest of the group. Once she caught up with everyone else, she'd be another power-ampted mage that the world had to deal with!Anyway, apart from being a stunning Phantom Alchemist, Lena also had a big heart. She couldn't part with her family just like that, and she didn't want to leave them vulnerable either, so she began to bargain with Timothy.“Looks like I'm leaving home forevers, or for a very long long time, Tim. I won't see them for a while…” She expressed. Afterwards, she requested. “Can't you make them stronger as well? They have to protect themselves, and they can't spend the rests of their lives in a tree… Trust me, it's really boring.”“Oh, I believe that.” His eyes widened, “To me, being bored is worse than being hit by a fireball, and I'm not kidding, so, any speci
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 284 - The four-step plan
Timothy and the team flew north-west for five days. They flew towards this direction, because that was where the ‘ancient rings’ were supposed to be.Now, the team barely understood what Arvena was talking about when she mentioned these rings, but most of them knew to be cautious around her. Due to her past behaviour, they didn’t trust her much, and as a response to such lack of trust, as they traveled, they’ve been asking her a lot of questions about these rings. Arvena tried to be secluded, and secretive about the matter, but Timothy didn’t allow it. Being a mind reader, she reminded her that he could read her mind, regardless if she wanted to share the information or not.This was what made her cooperate, and after she started sharing more information, the team discovered that Arvena had actually been protecting them from the truth, rather than hiding it selfishly. Bottom line, the ancient site that they were visiting was quite dangerous, and it was especially dangerous for the co

Timothy’s fourth plan would be considered simple for the average dark mage. For example, the average necromancer would simply reanimate old corpses, and have them rise from the ground regardless of how old they were, oftentimes they were skeletons, even, but with Timothy, that was not the case and his methods weren’t as simple. He wanted his slaves to be self aware, conscious, fully healthy, and he wanted them to know what they were fighting for. Such a thing was difficult to ask for even from an Expert Mage, because one could not mimic life itself that easily, but Timothy had cleverly found loopholes, or shortcuts. He was merely a new Adept Mage now, but this fact didn’t matter much, because he had created his first slave when he was technically considered a beginner, and now, he should be able to create them at almost triple the speed!The main advantage that he had, was the fact that he had a high MQ, which stood for Mana Quoitent, or cognitive ability when it came to the understa
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 286 - Hostile slaves
In less than three-hours time, Timothy created a total of two-hundred Fal Goblin slaves, for them to protect him and the team. Ideally he would want hundreds of more power-amped slaves, on the count that the quest in front of them was a bit unpredictable, but his mana pool gave out. He spent every drop of his dark mana, because the slaves he made were stronger than that first batch he had created in the middle of the ocean, back in the micro-universe of Valporovus.The two-hundred slaves he had now were all within the Fintelus’ Apprentice realm of mana, hence, they were more powerful, and their pools could fit more mana. They were in the second realm. A select few were at level six within this realm, hence, they were as powerful as Tim was when he first created a badge of slaves.Biological factors played a big role today as well, as Fal Goblins were considered a superior race, or species of goblins. It also helped that Tim was in the Adept Arcana realm of mana, or differently known a
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 287 - "Landslide, or no landslide?"
Timothy and his remaining, one-hundred-and-ninety-nine slaves reached a consensus. They weren’t going to kill each other, which at this point he understood that it was a lot to ask for from the slaves that he had created with his own mana. He was even surprised that he convinced them to fight for him, minutes after the slaves tried to start a rebellion all together, but they reached a consensus already, as mentioned.Timothy hadn’t nearly expected to get attacked by one of his slaves today, but it happened, and so he was trying to catch up with their train of thought. Creations who were too smart for their own good, would logically end up making unique demands, and at some point, the minimal respect they were supposed to give to their master, would become optional. He made a mistake when he made them this intelligent.However, even though he could kill these slaves off right now, perhaps through the Green Plague ability alone, he chose to spare them. He didn’t want to waste his mana b
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 288 - Giant Mana Guardian
“What the fuck is that supposed to be?” Timothy exclaimed after he saw the giant which was made out of stone.“One of the books I’ve read said something about them, but they were described weirdly, so I thought their existence was metaphorical.” Arvena added, “A protector of mana, a stone heart, a dog to their master, dogmatic in their beliefs.”“What?” He asked helplessly.“A Giant Mana Guardian,” She said, simplifying her poetic explanation. “I’m assuming that it had been sleeping for hundreds of years up until now, and we used its warm-up routine to have this conversation. We’re basically fucked in the ass, man!”“Oh, great.” He said, and then he whistled. “Kelketuk, attack! Use your claws!”There was no point in wasting any more time. He had spotted the Kelketuk fifty meters away, and used the opportunity to launch an attack! It was best not to wait around until the giant fought back!The Kelketuk heard Timothy’s command, mostly because he also communicated with it telepathically,
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 289 - "Imma need your rib real quick"
The common mage didn't carry a shovel. Today, that fact was very inconvenient because they could use some shovels if they were to dig out the goblin slaves out of that landslide. Timothy and Gustav were left with a few options. They could either compromise their rescue mission by having tens of other goblins come over here and try to help, potentially hurting the injured men and women more than helping them, or the two of them could do this task alone, very slowly, by using their hands to shovel the dirt and rock away.After he considered those couple of options, Timothy was not satisfied. By all odds, another landslide might occur soon, on the count that the Kelketuk was rustling around with a giant, less than thirty meters away! Hell, the recoil from Arvena's fireballs might cause another landslide alone, because the mountainside's surface was that prone to collapsing within itself.“Fuck…” Tim grunted, as he became more and more aware of his options. “These guys are going to get f
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 290 - Giant-er
“Fucking bastard, what is that?! We almost got wiped out by the smaller ones, and now this!” He exclaimed.Timothy, his friends, and his slaves were in trouble, more than they had already been! They had to deal with three Giant Mana Guardians up until now, and as if that wasn’t taxing enough, a bigger giant appeared in the scene!It rose from the dirt, and from the looks of it, it needed at least half-a-minute time to gain its composure after sleeping for what could be over a millennia! It was slow, for now, but Timothy understood that once this monster started walking, they were in grave danger! Worse yet, he had ordered his entire platoon of goblin slaves to rush up the mountain, into the battle scene, which unfortunately meant that the giant could kill them all together - with simple attacks, even, such as walking over the slaves, or running its club-like fists across them. This thing was a giant, four-limbed tank!Timothy had half-a-minute to try and prevent his slaves, and poten

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
