Timothy wasn’t the brightest fish in the world, not by a stretch, but under any hostile circumstances, he knew what had to be done. He listened to the system, and bought the upgrade that she recommended. Since he could afford it too, there was virtually no reason for him to avoid this upgrade.<...
2023-12-19 17:31:35 +0000 UTC View PostThe risks that Tim took, came hand-to-hand with advantages. The quality of his mana was greater now, so he managed to pave an escape route for himself as a result. He beamed through the waters at an astounding speed!
Tim swam low, pretty close to the sea-floor even, so he managed to escape ...
2023-12-19 17:30:53 +0000 UTC View PostTim endured various bodily challenges. The mana upgrade session was very tough on his body, as it basically was a painful restructuring of everything that slushed under his flesh. Although the said restructuring wasn’t too drastic on its own, it and its definition was still spiteful ag...
2023-12-19 17:29:38 +0000 UTC View PostTim helped Ortana get out of trouble. He lifted her away from plain sight, and hid her in some random hole on the ground. There were plenty of such holes surrounding them, and they could hide within any of them, just because they were very small-bodied stingrays. They were safe for the time being...
2023-12-19 17:28:54 +0000 UTC View PostTim finally filled up his pool of mana. It took him about twenty minutes, because the root was degenerating more every second. He also couldn't concentrate all that much either, which stunted his progress, but the important thing was that he succeeded, even if he did so eventually. His pool now h...
2023-12-19 17:28:02 +0000 UTC View Post[Congratulations, Timothy, you found mana roots.] The system announced, [This means that you successfully completed your fifth, system given task, and won 100 points as a reward! In total, you’ve accumulated 670 system points.]
“Nice,” He thought, though he wasn’t as excited about t...
2023-12-19 17:27:02 +0000 UTC View PostTim won the battle, he killed a very dangerous stingray. However, he felt disgusted about this, because in a sense, he felt as if he killed a human being! He felt that this was a horrible thing to do, even if it was for the greater good.
Normally he would celebrate for such a tremendous vic...
2023-12-19 17:26:16 +0000 UTC View PostTim and the rest of the team eventually noticed that a couple of stingrays were missing. When someone was underground for more than five minutes, it was inevitable to notice their absence.
Tim got extremely paranoid in response, and guessed that those two stingrays (Bob and Knob) were eithe...
2023-12-19 17:25:35 +0000 UTC View PostTim removed a huge barricade from the group’s way, he killed that snake! His work was appreciated by the other stingrays, by those who survived at least. They had one casualty so far, but as far as the main task was concerned, as of now, they could continue to progress!
The stingrays sear...
2023-12-19 17:22:13 +0000 UTC View PostThe team of seven stingrays were on the move. Marlo directed them to a spot, which was a whole kilometer away from the hidden lair, and it was laid out on a stretch of sand. Originally this spot would be really unassuming, but Marlo taught them how to find the good stuff!
He told t...
2023-12-19 17:21:20 +0000 UTC View PostTim may be the busiest stingray out there right now, as he wholeheartedly accepted to be part of the blistering mana sect! He was to be very busy soon, because Marlo introduced him to a lot of things today, regarding magic, and he wanted to try out everything that was available!
He...
2023-12-19 17:20:40 +0000 UTC View PostFrom the looks of it, TIm really ran into a sect, whose members were primarily fish. Odds were that this sect was more of a cult, but he didn’t want to point fingers like that just yet. He was offered to join the sect, and therefore, he hoped that there were some benefits from joining ...
2023-12-19 17:19:42 +0000 UTC View PostThe upgrade he bought cost him six-hundred and thirty points. It was costly, but at least now he had a greater advantage, in terms of his overall hostility against the world. Under the right circumstances, he could attack anyone he wanted, and that was all that mattered in the end.
He didn'...
2023-12-19 17:18:05 +0000 UTC View PostTim woke up feeling like a sack of shit. It wasn't the brightest idea to handle five upgrades all together, and quite frankly, it was stupid to handle five of practically anything! It was too much, and in this case, the upgrades have beaten on his body relentlessly, to the point where he may have...
2023-12-19 17:17:23 +0000 UTC View PostTim found the panzer crabs he had stashed. It took him a moment to find them, since he was both hungry and disoriented, but he did succeed nonetheless. Without wasting a second, he started munching on them.
He got a belly full of crab meat in less than ten minutes, and from the looks of it,...
2023-12-19 16:39:58 +0000 UTC View PostTim was severely drunk, however, he did eventually find his way to the reef, and even closed in to the den, where Harold the eel was living in. He had spiraled like a WW2 warplane for a while, but at least he swam near the spot that he had aimed for.
He was as confident as a drunkard could ...
2023-12-19 16:39:03 +0000 UTC View PostTim was quite speedy. He swam three hundred meters deep, under the sea, and completed the task as a result. He didn’t get hurt either, as at some point he swam really slowly, just so he wouldn’t cross any physical bounds. His disk-like body was upgraded to endure three-hundred meters of ocean...
2023-12-19 16:38:28 +0000 UTC View PostOver the course of a couple of minutes, Tim gathered all the courage he needed to approach this odd and massive cloud. Sure this approach made him a bit nervous, however, he gathered a bit more courage, as he kept insisting that this was a golden opportunity, one where he could reap a lo...
2023-12-19 16:36:44 +0000 UTC View Post"Wow…" Tim gasped in amazement.
He was astounded by the idea of magical, mana-oozing roots. He guessed that they'd only make him more powerful, but overall, he also got this explorative, adrenaline rush after hearing about them! This world had so much to offer, so he couldn’t wait to es...
2023-12-19 16:36:03 +0000 UTC View PostTim searched the reef for any other kind of creature for him to kill. His belly was full, so he wasn't really desperate for food, but he did need to gather up a bunch of points!
The panzer crabs he had killed gave him plenty of points, yes, but they weren't enough. Some of the upgrades were...
2023-12-19 16:35:09 +0000 UTC View PostTim was intrigued by the new purchase options. He and the system discussed them for a long time, just so he could pick the best option there was. They came to the conclusion that the cheapest upgrades were the best option, as though they weren't as effective as the rest of the upgrades, they stil...
2023-12-19 16:34:31 +0000 UTC View PostTim was astounded by the concept of magic. The fact that it was available in this world, was the only thing that kept him from being suicidal. This world simply promised a lot!
The talk about magic brought back some memories, even, he said. “A protective spell, huh? I think you mean a def...
2023-12-19 16:33:46 +0000 UTC View PostTim woke up after about five hours, and he was fully rested. However, the recent upgrades have tampered with his body quite a bit, so he felt really weird right now. He felt lighter, quicker, and had this urge to explore the seas and hunt anything that moved! This was how he usually behaved, yes,...
2023-12-19 16:33:01 +0000 UTC View PostTim's sense of vengeance went down, as soon as he found a place where he could rest at. The hard outlay of coral was his best friend around here, and he used it well, as he hid beneath about four layers of this hardy coral. Nothing could get to him at that point, nothing dangerous at least, he wa...
2023-12-19 16:32:24 +0000 UTC View PostWhat Timothy was about to do, took a lot of guts. He was about to encounter that big mako-shark, and this encounter could end up badly, but he was simply mesmerized by the idea of ‘special crabs’! He wanted them.
He found the shark lurking about fifty meters away from the reef, and then...
2023-12-19 15:44:23 +0000 UTC View PostTim returned to his stingray body, and now, he had a lot of time to kill before he could explore again. The wonders which were sandwiched between the sky enthralled him, so he couldn’t wait to get up there again, a week from now!
Exploring the skies may get boring at some point, but the r...
2023-12-19 15:43:42 +0000 UTC View PostTim was astounded by what this world had to offer. The air, apparently, wasn't as bland as he imagined. It looked clear, yes, but further away the sky had more to offer!
"Fucking hell, everything looks like a rainbow…" He thought.
Tim could see multiple colors across the sky, and th...
2023-12-19 15:43:06 +0000 UTC View Post"Explorative soul, huh? What's that for?" Tim asked.
He was stumped. In fact, for a good few hours he even believed that stingrays didn't have souls to begin with, he had been convinced about that. For that matter, he didn’t have the slightest clue now, regarding what a little stingray co...
2023-12-19 15:42:21 +0000 UTC View PostTim searched the flat sea-floor for about five minutes, and within this time bracket, he found three urchins. Each of them had different colors, one of them was even purple, so without risking his own health in the process, he had to figure out which urchin was the bubonic one.
He wanted to...
2023-12-19 15:41:32 +0000 UTC View PostTim squeezed within the reef and its many contents, in search for easy points. He swam around for three hours, quite carefully, but hadn't managed to find as many creatures as he hoped to find.
He just found a few more marble shrimps, and half of them had been in his den. They seemingly wer...
