Wizard: Starting with Symbiosis with Algae

Chapter 88 Natural Selection (3)

"For symbiotic life forms to interact, a suitable environment must first be provided."

66

The venue should naturally be the bathroom. The humidity is sufficient, the temperature is controllable, and there is water in the environment.

It is beneficial to all the symbiotic life forms in Lynn.

Then, it is "there must be light".

As soon as Lynn thought of this, he immediately rummaged through the storage room and took out the six large magic stone lamps that were the same size as his chest cavity that he had bought.

They were plugged in one by one in the bathroom, and then the bathroom's built-in fluorescent light was turned on.

The bathroom suddenly became as bright as the desert outside.

Lynn stroked her chin and concluded, "The warm and bright environment is ready, and then it's time to grow bigger."

His symbiotic life forms are already too numerous. If he were to directly contain all these organisms in a normal human form, blockages would inevitably occur.

His small stature was also one of the reasons he decided to explore the homeland of the Iron Man.

Therefore, "meditation is initiated."

A huge, illusory iron figure suddenly materialized before Lynn's eyes.

This was followed by changes in his body. His limbs lengthened, and his bones and muscles extended outwards at a uniform speed.

Before long, his torso sank into the bathtub, his cervical spine bent, and he was like a shrimp, barely able to keep his eyes looking forward with the support of his neck.

Lynn tilted her head and changed her position, but found that she couldn't feel comfortable no matter what she did, so she closed the bathroom door.

Apply a waterproof seal to the bottom, lie flat on the tiled floor with your arms outstretched and legs straight, and spread out as far as possible in a butterfly stroke.

He used meditation techniques, causing his body to continue to grow larger.

He whispered a sigh in his heart.

"Symbiotic life! Come!"

The first to appear were four body fluid worms, who were Lynn's "land" and also Lynn's "river". They carried nutrients throughout his body and carried metabolic waste to the outlet.

And including these four, Lynn's available magic power is probably close to 6. He has enough resilience to withstand risks.

Then there are the producers on this "land".

Tetraphyta, black dodder, and edranorium all took root on his limbs.

Because these things are so fluffy, the hydrophobic layer is also very effective.

Lynn, who was lying on the ground, slowly began to float.

"Swimming like this is completely effortless. It's quite a new discovery."

Lynn silently made a note of it, summoning the pollinating bees, fungal lambs, fungal black lambs, and the oasis pioneers that constitute the creatures he had recently purchased.

The fungal lambs gathered round and plump near his knees, like a bunch of fluffy tofu. The little black lamb chose the warmest spot on the back of its neck and quietly spread out.

The Oasis Pioneer splits into the largest number of creatures, which crawl along his ribs and waist, their tentacles gently resting on his skin like pioneers exploring a new continent, their sharp, thorny legs constantly moving.

The last to appear were the Flying Stick and the Scaled Pike.

Because the flying rods consume nutrients too quickly, Lynn will not allow them to directly participate in this energy-rich transformation.

But Lynn wouldn't show favoritism.

"Eating meat every meal with me is a pipe dream, but eating grass every meal is absolutely achievable."

"Anyway, these flying sticks and pike seem to really like eating grass."

Lynn had an idea. Four flying sticks swirled and danced in front of the enchanted grass.

First, he picked out some small insects and maggots mixed in with the grass clippings and ate them, and then asked Lynn, the "green flying stick boss," for permission to jump into the grass all at once.

The flying stick darted in and out of the grass, while the scaled pike followed behind, also eating some grass, but mostly waiting for the digested, high-energy soil to be expelled from the flying stick's mouth.

The high-energy soil that was expelled fell into the water and gradually formed a thin layer of blue fluorescent mud around Lynn.

Lynn watched the flying stick roll around in the grass, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Lynn poured the alchemy academy's potion into the water according to the instructions.

The temperature is starting to rise.

Moisture accumulated in the enclosed bathroom, quickly becoming so saturated that even breathing felt humid.

As the oxygen content in the air and water decreases, the magic concentration slowly increases. The basic rate of life metabolism accelerates.

Life forms imbued with magic can grow at an astonishing rate when nutrients are plentiful.

Lynn is the primary source of nourishment and magic for all symbiotic life, and the foundation upon which they inhabit.

He is like a continent floating in nutrient solution, allowing all kinds of life to take root, climb, compete, and merge on it.

In a confined environment, the energy supply for these life forms is almost unlimited.

"What other reason is there not to grow up properly?"

The changes came much faster than expected.

Within two days, algae and oasis pioneers began vying for the right to allocate surface area on Lynn's body.

The tetradalaria spread along the chest towards the ribs, while the tentacles of the Oasis Vanguard attempted to advance upwards from the waist, slowly and tentatively probing inch by inch. The two forces met, neither willing to yield.

The algae spread quickly and thinly, and the Oasis Pioneer also moved and multiplied rapidly, but due to the effects of the chemicals, the sulfide content was high, and the Oasis Pioneer failed to gain an advantage.

However, Lynn noticed that something was wrong with the Oasis Vanguard; their tentacles could extend quite a distance and had become malleable.

Lynn had a guess in his mind, and sure enough, not long after, the notification came.

[Oasis Vanguard, undergoing magical transformation, its stable state becomes malleable during the process of change.]

[Some Oasis Vanguard members have absorbed the magical remnants of the Scaled Pike, and an irreversible change is underway.]

Lynn noticed that the Oasis Pioneer had actually started moving around wrapped in tetrad algae and blue light algae.

It's important to know that Oasis Vanguard + Black Lamb is already a magical creature with five attributes.

It's actually getting stronger.

Lynn lay on his back with one hand raised, reading a book, and then plucked a few plump fruits from a clump of Edranor grass on his shoulder and put them in his mouth.

"This is so inspiring."

But what does this pike magic residue mean?

[Magic power increased by +0.001.]

Because the edranor plant itself is constantly growing, agility does not increase.

Creatures are divided into lower and higher classes, and attributes are also divided into lower and higher classes. The level difference in the wizarding world is very obvious, and some attributes are destined to be very ineffective, except for easily defeating weaker opponents.

The more Lynn grew and the stronger he became, the more he felt that, in terms of the practicality of power, "only magic surpasses everything else."

With the movement of the body fluid parasite.

[The magical fluctuations of the blood plasma worm, lymphatic worm, sputum worm, and sweat worm are aligned...]

Lynn felt his own magical power increasing.

The magical reserves that these creatures, specially bred by wizards, can contain also increase slowly but noticeably.

【Magic 3.5】

The magic power contained in the body fluid worm also reaches about 3.55.

Lynn continued his study of magic. As his magical power increased, everything began to become clearer in his mind. He turned to the chapter on "Woodening" and then to the chapter on "Withering," laying the two pages side by side on his lap.

The structure of the spell was very complex, but after Lynn's magic power increased, he suddenly understood some of it after careful study.

With so much magic power, I can easily eliminate the step of reducing magic power consumption in the middle.

That makes things simpler.

Moreover, lignification and withering can cause other organisms to dry out, die, and make way for them.

Lynn rolled her eyes and bounced her body with delight.

"Isn't this a coincidence?"

"The tiny bursts of magic that I emit when I learn spells can be considered a means of eliminating living beings."

With the idea of ​​giving it a try.

With a thought, Lynn constructed a spell circuit on his side.

Unexpectedly, due to its complexity, fragments of the failed spell scattered across his back, causing him to feel slightly warm.

However, Lynn could accept the side effects.

Lynn carefully observed the area that was burning.

The tender shoots of the Edrano grass that were climbing there suddenly hardened and turned brown, their surfaces changing from soft emerald green to hard dark brown, as if they had been frozen solid by cement.

A small number of them managed to withstand the attack thanks to the concentration of magic power.

A small number were lucky enough to survive.

A small number survived because they grew fast enough.

According to this elimination method, only those who run fast, have keen senses, have enough magic power, or grow fast enough can survive.

Lynn shook his head, saying in a tone that even he found hypocritical, "This is the fate of living beings; it's truly both tragic and moving."

"The second round of elimination has begun."
