I'm a Stingray? Chapter 314 - Invasive Coral
Timothy got very excited when he figured out that he could work with dead coral. He could put his abilities into use today, and make something out of this tiny, dead coral, and he couldn’t be happier about it!It was not that he cared about coral, he didn’t care about it even a little bit, despite spending a lot of time in the reef himself in the very beginning. He found coral very uninteresting, and considered it helpful only on the occasions where he had to swim away, and hide. Coral reefs were very useful when it came to providing hiding spots, but other than that, he hadn't expected anything else out of it.Timothy held the dead coral in his hand, and then put its features to the test. To his surprise, the coral was receptive to his abilities, though he didn’t have enough flexibility with it to perform the tasks that he usually did with old bones.With the help of the Bone Multiplier ability, he eventually shaped the coral into a femur bone. However, he couldn’t snap off fractions
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 315 - The Super Mage
Despite the system’s warning, and in complete contrast to what was logical, Timothy continued to work on the abomination of a skeleton that he created. He held the skeleton down using the Bone Multiplier ability, to prevent some problems such as organ damage caused by rapid movement, and then he suited the skeleton. He gave it organs, its own skin, its nervous system, a mana pool, and then gave it a spark to force it into consciousness.One’s brain needs electricity, especially if the brain was non-existent moments ago. Timothy knew that, so he followed his own special process of creating slaves, and sparked a heartbeat to his very first coral-based creation. He didn’t even know if this was considered necromancy, because he had complicated the process beyond bounds a long time ago, but he didn’t care for the official label that his work had, or could have.“Hello!” He waved his hand in front of his creation. “Can you hear me? Is your brain working alright?”The creature opened its mou
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 316 - Frog humper
The experiment that Timothy carried out today was truly one of a kind. The rewarding aspect of his experiment felt even better, when he remembered that he had planned to obliterate it earlier on! The positive results still baffled him.Timothy was certain that he had created a new species today, so he had to give it a scientific name. Every species deserves a name to identify themselves with, and to take to the grave with them when the time comes! Timothy believed that this was a basic right that every living being should have.However, his point of view didn't make him any more mature than what he was physically capable of, so he gave two names to the species, one of which sounded scientific, and the second was what was going to be used to describe the creature in most situations. The latter sounded more interesting. “Pocket Penised Mammal of Reefs,” He picked out its scientific name, as ridiculous as that might sound. “Though, to address them, it's best if we call them Coral-hide G
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 317 - Garry's midnight walk
Garry the Kelketuk walked across the flat lands that were attached to the coastline. He was curious to see what this planet held, or what his close surroundings held, so he walked through the land in the middle of the night, and was hoping to see anything interesting. He was bored, above all things, but the good thing out of exploring a foreign planet that also had oxygen, was that even something as simple as grass was interesting for him to observe.Out in the distance, he could see a set of mountains, possibly hundreds of kilometers away. It was night, though, so despite having a good eyesight that also allowed him to see in the dark, he couldn’t make out many details when he looked at those mountains. They just look like big, dark clumps.“They’re taller than ah expected thaim tae be. O' coorse, they’re nae nearly as lanky as th' ones oan mah planet.“ He thought.Garry sat on the ground after a while, and as he pulled out one grass blade after the other, holding them and squishing
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 318 - Leveling up some cavemen
Garry had completely overpowered the few cavemen that were in front of him. Likewise, he was able to squeeze every answer that he wanted out of them, and they were lucky that he didn’t even want to hurt them. He was just curious to know how less intelligent humanoids lived their life around here, and he wanted to understand the scale of magic that they practiced.Finally, one of them answered him, and said, “We use fire, but not burns hot.”With that statement alone, he then knew for sure that these cavemen were within the first realm of mana, likely even in the lowest level there was! One couldn’t cultivate their mana pool if they barely understood magic, so their utter lack of advancement in the arcane arts was understandable. There were only rare instances where literal fire didn’t burn enough, and that was if the caster was within the first level of the first realm. Odds were that these cavemen weren’t even suffering through mana brackets, but instead, they just didn’t know the r
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 319 - "Join me in Mundi"
Lena was the second last member to join Timothy's group, and she was quite happy to join it. She could be with the young man that she had developed a liking for, and as a bonus, she could explore the world more than she had been initially capable of doing with her vulnerable, frog body.The last few weeks had treated her well, however, the fact of the matter remained that her mana pool was quite weak! She had spent years developing her phantom mana pool, and that one was quite strong, but it didn't transfer well over to her new situation. Lena was at level three in the God's Punishment realm of mana, otherwise known as the first realm, so she was a fairly weak mage. The weakest in the group, no doubt.Over the weeks, she had accumulated enough mana to try and upgrade her mana pool, but Timothy didn’t let her. He advised against it.In the early stages of his life on this planet, he had struggled through the first realm severely! His earliest friends, such as Ortana and Skendus had su
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 320 - Lena's first Flash Upgrade
Once Timothy and Lena made it to Purpureus Mundi, he showed her around in the castle, and introduced her to its various sections. Interestingly enough, in a literal castle that every man and woman would wish to own, its most interesting feature was not the large dinning hall, its thick walls, its beautiful four towers, its several bedrooms, or even its beautiful crimson surroundings, but instead, it was the basement!The basement had an alchemy lab of its own, and Lena absolutely fell in love with it as soon as she saw it! This lab wasn't the kind that she was used to in the ghost world, but that was what made it even more interesting! She was willing to pursue the craft of physical alchemy, and in a universe with hundreds of unique plant and herb species at her disposal, she could start the craft under the best circumstances that she could imagine!“I love it!” She shrieked. “Obviously you didn't prepare this lab for me, but it's still a great gift if you're gonna let me use it!”“Of
I'm a Stingray? Chapter 321 - Mana, yet again dense and iron-like!
Lena experienced her first flash upgrade today, and she was beyond excited! She felt spoiled, and rightfully so, because her mana quality progression was basically railroaded by a guy who was a lot stronger than her, had plenty to offer, and cared enough about her to help her progress!Most mages did not have such privileges, they certainly did not. Some progressed through magic schools, some progressed as groups without much of a hierarchy to help them, but overall, it was quite difficult to reach the higher realms of mana. It was a known fact that the few mages who had become Expert Mages or more, liked to hold on to their secrets, so there truly was no easy way for every single mage to progress!Bottom-line, Lena reaped the benefits that most could not. Plenty of mages were not even aware that flash upgrades even existed, but she was experiencing it first hand today, under very accommodating circumstances! This was the absolute happiest a person could be while being locked in a dun

Chapter 353 - Arch Mages can't fly?
“Watch out!” Timothy shouted.Despite the dangers that were approaching them, the team was fine. The dragons had seen the Ancient Sea Orcs leap out of the water before anyone else did, so they started flying up just a second later!The dragons flew twenty more meters higher in just under two seconds, and left the orcs lagging behind. No matter how big they were, and how much muscle may be backing up the movements of the orcs, they still couldn't make it far above water! They were heavy serpentine creatures, and didn't have wings, so they only leaped forty meters above the water before they started free falling.“That was close,” Ortana sighed. Afterwards, she teased, “Do you still wanna take the fight down there, Gussy?”“Hell nah!” He answered. “That bastard ate one of my lightning bolts up without a problem! Mouth open and all, so they're tough bastards! Too tough.”Timothy listened to what his friends had to say, and he couldn’t help but agree with them. He was shocked that there
Chapter 352 - Boar face
“Oh, the bastard is ancient, huh? Is it weak enough for me to kill, system, because I don’t care how old or important he is! The bastard had a jaw like a damn wild boar, so other than being a literal giant, he seems to have the tools to destroy ships. He's our culprit.” Tim spoke to the system, inwardly.For a number of reasons that were quite understandable, he was not happy to see a Sea Orc. The fact that this one was double the size of a normal orc, and had a head that looked like a battering ram, gave him even more reasons to be upset. He wanted to kill this monster immediately, though, he also knew that it was stupid to rush and face a monster that he had never seen before, so he waited for the system's input.She answered, [The Ancient Sea Orc may seem rugged, and dull, but they used to be known for reaching amongst the highest realms of mana quality. In a timeline where this beast isn't even supposed to exist, my guess is that he's an extra tough one. Fighting it wouldn’t be id
Chapter 351 - Ancient Sea Orc
A city that depended on seafare to develop its commerce, and economy was a wealthy city. Or at the very least, it was a developing one, who had the capacity to support a large population. However, in a situation where its commerce was abruptly halted, the city would end up being very vulnerable to poverty. Its economy could collapse within itself in just a few weeks, because businesses would either have to spend more gold in order to move and sell their merchandise elsewhere, or they had to sell it at much cheaper prices! Regardless, it was a horrendous situation to face, and it already left thousands of people unemployed. Timothy did not like this at all, because if the City of Fik was vulnerable, the rest of the cities that were further inland, were even more vulnerable, because they also depended on the one, big river that led to the ocean to connect them to the rest of the world. In his eyes, each city within a forty-kilometer radius was worthless now, up until they could eradic
Chapter 350 - "What haunts the sea?"
With little effort, Gustav turned into a Hunting Eagle. This species was massive with a twelve foot long wingspan, so surely, if they were going to put the armor’s flexibility to the test, then turning into a six foot tall eagle would do the trick! Gustav stressed the armor out while he was shapeshifting. The armor moved around as if it just got melted, but in reality, it was mirroring its wearer’s body, and movements. Shapeshifting always pushed Gustav into a liquid-like form before he successfully turned into the species he was aiming for, and so far, they were happy to know that the armor could recognize his efforts.Twenty seconds later, once he successfully turned into a giant Hunting Eagle, he felt the armor moving around, making its final adjustments. The helmet tightened on his head, the one-piece suit covered his body properly, and even spread out exclusively across the main bones of his wings, as if it knew that birds couldn’t afford to have their wings weighed down too muc
Chapter 349 - One ton of gold
“Sure,” Timothy answered. “Where do you want me to place the root at? It’s about fourteen-feet wide, and if you don’t want to squish it, or pop it, you need some room to place the root at.”“My basement is down there, follow me.” Lindon said. Timothy and Lindon made their way down the basement, and the latter didn’t even bother to lock any doors. He knew that the sets of armor he sold were too heavy for the average guy to steal, so he wasn't worried. He was mainly focused on the mana root right now, which could give a decent boost on his wealth if he acquired it, and got the chance to resell it.“You can haul it down here,” Lindon said. “I’m certain that the root will fit through the door, even if it's bigger than you described it. So, when can I expect the root?”“In a minute,” He sighed.Afterwards, he opened a portal to the needle universe of Purpureous Mundi, leaving Lindon the merchant in utter shock! He didn’t know what to say, but he certainly started to believe that Timothy w
Chapter 348 - Shapeshifter’s Iron Armor
Within the City of Fik, the team made their way into another prestigious shop, and browsed its wares. This shop was quite big, meant to house plenty of armor that was for sale, and likewise, the shop was quite tall as well. With the latter fact considered, Garry could also squeeze into the shop. He was happy to step in and look at stuff, even if he couldn't care less about the armor within the shop. There weren’t many buildings around here that could safely welcome giants such as himself.Anyway, once they stepped in, Timothy sought out the merchant, because he wanted to ask what magical armor actually was! He had never heard of something like that before, even though the bone armor that he wore himself was technically made by one of his magical abilities, so he wanted to figure out what these shining sets of armor that were laid across the shop offered, and why they were different from whatever he could create. Once he found the merchant, he greeted him, and asked, “What are these
Chapter 347 - 50/50
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
