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

Chapter 8 8. Thirsty Sea Fluorescent Algae

Riding on the Exploding Fire Horse, Cloea and Joshua quickly arrived at the beach.

The latter came to ask for help after seeing the situation, but the former had a complicated expression after seeing the situation clearly.

Although the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, it is still very bright even at night, but it is still pale in comparison to the situation at the seaside.

At this time, the sea water was filled with a strange blue halo, which was moving in the sea water like living things, constantly attaching to the surrounding reefs and ships.

Whenever they completely cover the reef, the reef will shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it is being swallowed.

To be fair, if you ignore the fact that they are "swallowing" the reefs, they are actually quite beautiful.

A clear blue halo suddenly appeared in the dark and deep ocean, and it was roaming around like a self-consciousness and spirituality. It would indeed be mistaken for some kind of sea god, right?
Robert stood on the seashore with three knights and Bartos.

Behind them were local soldiers wearing worn leather armor, each of them tightly grasping their weapons that looked a little rusty.

The scene was very tense.

"Don't panic, I'll see what's going on!"

Croix came over with a staff.

"grown ups!"

When they saw Kloya coming, they were obviously relieved and quickly made way for Kloya to come closer and observe.

Bartos said nervously, "My lord, be careful, they even eat people!"

The poor former lord was already trembling with fear, his legs shaking. If Rob hadn't been standing behind him, he would have probably run away.

Croa nodded casually, then looked closely.

He discovered that when these blue halos attached to the reefs, it seemed like a magical explosion. The reefs would be shattered by this small explosion and then swallowed by the halos.

"It looks familiar."

When he cast the Eagle Eye Technique on himself, the blue halo in his eyes quickly expanded, revealing some very tiny translucent blue particles.

They come together to form such a spectacle.

“…Isn’t this algae?”

The more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was a scene formed by the marine microorganism Noctiluca scintillans, just like the "sea of ​​blue tears" he had seen before.

But they were indeed devouring the rocks on the shore, and were even slowly devouring the beach. They were clearly constantly exploding, but there was no sign of a decrease, and instead there were more and more of them.

In terms of perception, they have magical fluctuations that are neither strong nor weak, at most the level of a first-level monster.

It doesn't look like anything serious.

After he concluded, he asked the former lord, "Have you ever seen it devour a person?"

Bartos nodded quickly: "Yes, sir! I saw it devour a peasant servant with my own eyes, not even a bone was left!"

"so."

If it devours people, then we really can't let it live.

No matter how beautiful something is, as long as it threatens the safety of their territory, it must be expelled - it is probably impossible to kill them all.

It is not possible for a first-level magician like him to completely eliminate this special algae in the sea.

Croa slowly stretched out his hand and silently chanted a spell.

Strands of magic power immediately gathered in the palm of his hand and formed a huge red fireball, which was as big as a head. The scorching heat made the people who were close to it feel a little uncomfortable.

Except for Robb and the four knights, everyone else bowed their heads in respect and fear - of course they would be very afraid of a powerful wizard.

But if there was another wizard here, he would definitely notice that there was something wrong with this level one magic fireball - its power was even close to that of level two magic.

This is created by the new magic. The red magic seems to have a bonus on fire magic.

Only then can such a huge fireball be formed.

"go with!"

He threw the fireball directly into the sea. Logically, the flames would come into contact with the seawater, and then explode and evaporate, which would definitely scare away the strange algae. However, the moment the fireball touched the water, it immediately stopped!
Those strange blue algae climbed up along the fireball and turned the originally red fireball into a blue fireball.

The dense, clear blue color wrapped around the crimson fireball, dancing in the sea water, actually gave off a wonderful and beautiful feeling.

"?!!"

This scene immediately made Kroya lose his composure.

Fire magic is the most unstable magic element, right? How could it be enveloped by a bunch of monsters made up of water elements?

It won’t explode?

What surprised him even more was that the Astral Body Imprinting Technique suddenly gave him a hint at this time -

[Found a magic plant suitable for the Star Spirit Imprinting Technique: Thirsty Sea Fluorescent Algae. Please activate the Star Spirit Imprinting Technique to view the magic plant's star spirit body for spell imprinting. ]

After seeing this hint, Kloya bravely took a step forward into the sea, while also approaching the red and blue sphere that had calmed down.

Immediately, footsteps were heard behind him - four knights also followed, in case anything happened and they could immediately pull Cloya away.

Under the gaze of everyone, Kloya slowly pressed his fingers on the seaweed fireball and activated the Astral Body Imprinting Technique.

He originally thought that it wouldn't consume too much magic power, but it turned out that all the magic power he had gained from meditating for an afternoon was completely drained away, and only then did the pattern barely appear.

The star spirits of this group of seaweed are actually gathered together.

The azure blue threads wrapped around the almost identical spots of light in the center, flickering within the colony of fluorescent algae that enveloped the entire fireball.

"Sun! Sun! Sun!"

"Ah... I'm so bored. I want to blow myself up."

"During the day, why can't we see the sun during the day!"

Dense and subtle sounds echoed throughout the entire star body, and Cloya felt like his brain was about to explode.

The combination of so many voices and consciousnesses gives people a feeling that is no less than the pressure exerted by some mental magic.

In order to prevent himself from being contaminated by these consciousnesses, Kloya unceremoniously engraved the first chapter of the Scarlet Song that he had just learned, which was the meditation method, into the astral bodies of these Thirsty Sea Fluorescent Algae.

He was worried whether he could finish engraving all of them, but who knew that while he was engraving, a strange, endless spiritual power was returned to him.

At the same time, the sound of the thirsty sea fluorescent algae became more and more joyful——

"sun!"

"Woooooa, it can self-destruct!"

"We're going to see the sun!"

The seaweeds immediately left the fireball that was surrounding them and rushed towards Kroa.

The fireball sank into the water, making a sizzling sound and quickly went out.

This scene immediately made everyone nervous.

"grown ups!"

"Be careful!"

The four knights led by Joshua were almost so anxious that they drew their swords, but fortunately Kloya stopped them in time.

"Don't worry, they're no threat to me."

Cloya, who was able to directly see their star spirit bodies, only felt joy and pleasure at the moment. He did not feel any threat, so he let them rush towards him.

Continue to engrave.

The azure blue seaweed felt slightly cool when it crawled onto his skin, but the magic power and endless mental strength they brought with them were constantly being injected into Kloya's body.

With such help, it took a full half hour to carve the extremely complex Scarlet Song.

It's finally done.
