I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 149. Atavism? Evolution! Poseidon Coconut!
"Why did you inherit it?"

Kroya was really puzzled. He originally thought that this kind of imprint could not be inherited. No matter who was imprinted, it would only be on that plant.

It turned out that one of them was hereditary.

"Could it be because the engraving went so smoothly?"

Recalling what happened when it was engraved just now, its astral body seemed to be eager to accept this magical engraving, and it was so smooth that it seemed as if... it had it originally.

"How strange."

He observed carefully for a while, looking up and down at the big-mouthed magic flower engraved with the star spirit body, but found nothing.

Those engravings representing magic exist within its astral body. There is no obvious difference between them and other engravings, but they give a very harmonious feeling when looking at them.

"Weird."

While Kloya was thinking, the Big Mouth Demon Flower was already trying to use the ability of elementalization.

A stream of light representing magic flowed across the surface of its body, and gradually began to fade in color, becoming somewhat illusory and transparent.

After a moment, it successfully completed the process of elemental transformation, and the entire flower became illusory and transparent from top to bottom.

It was so fast that it was unbelievable, as if it was meant to be.

"Ok?"

Kloya suddenly noticed that its name had changed a little. After becoming an element, it was no longer [Big Mouth Demon Flower], but... [Elemental Big Mouth Demon Flower·Atavism].

“Return to our ancestors.”

“Could it be that it originally had the ability to transform elements, but because it no longer has this ability, it has degenerated into its current state.

In other words, if this ability can be restored, it can return to its original form?"

He instantly remembered the situation when the Pure White Sea Coconut evolved into a magic plant. At that time, the star spirit body of the Pure White Sea Coconut was like a light that had been extinguished and then lit up again, rather than being outlined again without light.

At that time it might be equivalent to a reversion to its original form, because it was a magical plant in the first place, but it just regained its past glory.

Kloya felt that his guess was very likely to be true, but the problem was... could atavism also be considered a form of evolution?

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head:

"As long as it can get better, why isn't it considered an evolution?"

In the past, the environment was suitable for their elementalization, so they were in elemental form. Later, the environment probably changed and became unsuitable, so they became their current form.

Now it has adapted and changed back, and is indeed stronger than before, so how can it not be considered an evolution?

Therefore, this genetic ability is most likely something that has been passed down from generation to generation. Now that it has been reactivated, it can be passed on to the next seed to be born.

“Alas, I thought I had found a way, but it turned out to be an ability that people already had.

A little disappointed, but not too disappointed.

If I can go back to my ancestors, can I find some degenerated magic plants, add the magic they originally had, and let them have their former glory?"

Croix thinks this really makes a difference.

Compared to this kind of exploration, those magical plants that were once very special in myths and classics do have a stable evolutionary direction.

While searching for the previously buried magical plants, he also created new magical plants of his own, taking both the old and the new into account.

And this method would definitely make it easier to add magic, because these are instincts that are already in their genes.

He wouldn't have to work so hard to come up with any ideas, or use any suggestion, mental magic, hypnosis, or anything like that.

"Copy the extinct demonic plant."

"For the first experiment... let's try the pure white sea coconut. I remember reading the classics here. It is said that a long time ago, the pure white sea coconut existed..."

"It should be just right to use it for experiments."

While thinking about the classics he had read before, he was also keeping an eye on the Big Mouth Magic Flower - the latter had already swallowed the hexagram flower he threw down and spit out new magic crystals.

These magic crystals were exactly as he thought.

The magic power inside is extremely pure, without any contamination from flesh and blood. It can no longer be called "Blood Demon Crystal", it would be better to call it "Demon Crystal".

Although the purity is still not as good as that of a first-level magic crystal, it is still one-tenth of a first-level magic crystal.

Not bad either.

And the tiny seeds of the big-mouthed magic flowers inside have also turned into pure elemental forms, and their names have also become [Elemental Big-mouthed Magic Flower·Atavism].

They absorbed the magic power from the magic crystal and soon broke out of their shells. They fell to the ground and began to open their mouths wide as if they were biting the air.

The teeth collided and made a crunching sound.

Obviously it is an ancestral ability.

"It's absorbing the magic power in the air. I'll take you there."

Kloya first added the magic of "element reconstruction" to all of these guys, and then took them to the place where the magic field vines were planted.

He set up a magic circle on the ground to isolate water, and put these elemental big-mouthed magic flowers directly into it. He watched them gnaw on the magic power in the air, and estimated that they would produce magic crystals soon.

This is the power of elementalization. If they were still the original ones, it would be impossible.

There is less floating in the air, but even if one piece could be produced a day, that would be incredible!
I suddenly felt very happy.

Their seeds are limited, but the magic power from the underwater volcano is almost infinite. Even if some of them begin to reproduce, it is impossible for them to consume all the magic power here.

He just needs to ask King Mu Yao Qu Teng to collect the magic crystals from time to time, and that would be perfect.

“Just waiting to be harvested.”

After finishing all this, he left and wrote a letter to Lord Graysand, saying that he could help him share some of the burden and was willing to pay a price. Lord Graysand seemed to have been waiting for someone to reply, and immediately sent a message and brought over 2,000 Big Mouth Magic Flowers and more than 500 Wind Erosion Sandworms.

The letter did not ask for anything, but instead thanked Cloya, as if he had gotten rid of some huge trouble.

"..."

“These are the eyes that discover their usefulness.”

Croa looked at the huge pile of magic flowers and sandworms he had sent, and felt both happy and worried at the same time.

He could only quickly return to the underwater ranch, enclose an area specifically for the wind-eroded sandworms, and then add magic to them.

There's not much at the bottom of the sea except for a lot of rocks. Just dig. If you can dig out an underwater town... then he'd be really happy.

As for the Big Mouth Magic Flowers, he returned to the vicinity of the volcanic community, set up magic arrays, surrounded the volcanic community, and planted a circle of Big Mouth Magic Flowers on the edge.

Most of it was thrown here.

He chose to take the other half to Hanjiao Island.

He planned to release this batch of them on Hanjiao Island and let them absorb the magic power in the wind and snow. Such a huge snowstorm was simply an excellent source of magic power.

Not taking this opportunity to eat more is like watching the buffet fly away.

……

After solving the problem of the big-mouthed magic flower, he came to the pure white sea spirit coconut.

The land near these coconut trees was surprisingly very clean and free of any snow.

All this is thanks to the tentacle slime.

The tentacle slime was diligently swallowing the snow into its body, then running to the side and "spitting" it out.

It is because of its hard work that the ground here is very clean and there is no snow piled up.

Water Slime and Ice Slime are also considered a large type in themselves, and will change according to the changes in the surrounding environment.

When it comes to adaptability, probably no one is better at adapting to the environment than these slimes. As long as there is a little magic, they can survive.

Cloya observed several pure white sea coconut trees and found that their magic power accumulation had reached an overflowing level.

We just need to wait until the snow and wind pass and spring comes, then we can start breeding.

"It was originally recorded that the pure white sea coconut can glow, release light balls, and has the ability to control water..."

He muttered a few words to the pure white sea spirit coconut, and the latter immediately conveyed its desire to evolve.

This trouble-free magical plant is really Croix's favorite.

He chose to imprint the two magics of "light" and "water control" on the opponent.

Just as he thought, this engraving went extremely smoothly. Just like the previous Big Mouth Flower, it couldn't wait to actively accept Kloya's engraving.

[Engraving completed, pure white sea coconut (light magic, water control magic)]

[The current magic plant can release warm light on the epidermis through magic power. When it is cut down, it can be used as a building material. It has the functions of preventing insects, repelling mosquitoes and calming the nerves. ]

[The fruit will also have magical effects. ]

[Currently, the magic plant can control the surrounding water flow to provide itself with sufficient water supply. ]

[Note: Since the Pure White Sea Coconut has been engraved with "Pure White Sea Coconut·Group Summoning Technique", "Light Technique" and "Water Control Technique" can be shared with the summoned creatures. ]

[Since the Pure White Sea God Coconut has gathered all the abilities it should have, the "Light Magic" and "Water Control Magic" and "Pure White Sea God Coconut·Mass Summoning Magic" seals will be changed to: Pure White Sea God Coconut's Atavism Seal. ]

[This seal will continue to evolve as the magic power of the Pure White Sea Coconut increases. ]

[After imprinting any coconut trees that have the potential to revert to their ancestral form, they will accelerate their reversion and eventually evolve into true pure white sea god coconuts.]

[The seeds born from this magic plant will enjoy and inherit the engraving effect of the pure white sea coconut. 】

Chloe blinked.

It was exactly as he thought, this was truly a throwback to our ancestors.

However, it can also be seen from this that the big-mouthed magic flower may have other abilities, not just elemental transformation, and they must be fully collected to get the ancestral imprint prompt.

After the engraving was completed, a very holy light immediately flashed on the bark of these coconut trees, and the branches began to absorb the surrounding water elements.

Strands of water elements began to gather towards its top, and finally formed rolling water droplets on the leaves.

It's like countless fruits made of water growing on a coconut tree.

The consciousness they conveyed was extremely excited, and the speed at which they absorbed magic power was much faster. The slime next to them also began to glow.

Just when Kroya was happy, a door suddenly appeared in the wind and snow.

An angel came out from inside.

He said to him, "Lucky friend, friend illuminated by the sun... the gopher wood has reached your territory."

His voice was not as smooth and gentle as before, but rather had a hint of urgency.

Like expectation.
