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

Chapter 86 86. Ducklings hatch, sharks attack

This peaceful and tranquil life seems to be caused by the power emitted by those ancient forage fungi - it can completely calm the monsters down.

Kloya estimated that even if some carnivorous monsters were brought in, they would be able to coexist harmoniously with the herbivores under the influence of the ancient forage fungi.

"This kind of grass looks really good."

He muttered something, shook his head and ran to look at the sea ganoderma growing over there.

It’s better to leave quickly after seeing it, the environment here is not very suitable for him to stay.

After a period of growth, the hyphae of the sea Ganoderma have occupied the entire reef. The hyphae are intertwined and developing upward, and the prototype of Ganoderma has grown.

The translucent blue cap is only about the size of a baby's palm and looks extremely small and cute.

The initial growth is time-consuming, but once they have a prototype, they will grow faster.

I estimate that in more than a month, it will grow up and start to secrete sea ganoderma secretions, and then we can make sea ganoderma potion.

He nodded with satisfaction.

Watching the crops I planted undergo obvious changes and waiting for them to grow and be harvested is a process that, although it takes a while, I am really looking forward to it.

After confirming the situation of the sea ganoderma, he wanted to go out and check on the sea clams, but the Fishtail Sea Duck King came over and grabbed his pants.

"Quack quack!"

There was some urgency in its cry.

"What's wrong?" Kloya was a little confused.

"quack!"

The Sea Duck King continued to pull his trouser leg, as if he wanted him to go somewhere. Judging from the direction he was pulling, it seemed to be towards the fertilized duck eggs.

Something happened to the duck egg... huh? It can't be that it's about to hatch, right?
He followed the Sea Duck King to the reef where the duck eggs were placed.

The duck eggs in the nest were indeed trembling slightly.

It had no mother duck to take care of it, but under the constant stimulation of magic here, it still successfully reached the hatching stage.

As long as the duck can be hatched, its life can be considered to have begun.

"You want me to see them born?" Kloya patted the Sea Duck King's head.

The Sea Duck King nodded: "Quack~"

It was pacing around uneasily, but it used its wings to drive away all the ducks that came over, not allowing any ducks to get close to it.

The ducks seemed to know that their babies were about to be born.

Although they were forced by the Sea Duck King and could not come over, they still stood far away, huddled together, nervously waiting for the result.

The emotions of Warcraft are no less weak than those of some humans.

"alright."

Cloya had nothing to do anyway, so he just watched the duck hatching as entertainment.

Just as he stretched out his hand to shape a chair, a chair immediately grew out from under his butt, perfectly supporting him.

"Oh?" His expression didn't change at all, he just sat down with a swagger.

At this time, two fatter earth rats climbed up the armrests of the chair, one on the left and one on the right, bowed to him and chirped a few times.

It was just like a servant coming to pay his respects.

It seems to be getting smarter.

Cloya rubbed their heads, leaned back a little, propped his cheek with his hand, and stared at the trembling duck eggs.

This monster duck seems to hatch very quickly.

After just a few minutes, you can see the eggshell breaking from the inside. At first it is just a small gap, which gradually expands.

The little, wet sea duck broke out of its shell and let out a tender quack to the world.

Then, without even resting or eating the eggshells, they staggered directly into the chaotic sea outside the bubble.

"..." Croa was silent.

He watched the little ducks that had just hatched from their shells enter the sea one by one, flapping their little wings hard in the chaotic water.

The magic of the sea baptized their still damp wings, and soon seemed to form some light blue layers on their feathers.

That is the innate ability of the Fishtail Sea Duck.

Ordinary ducks secrete oil to keep their wings from getting wet, but these ducks use this magical barrier to keep their feathers dry.

After forming this magical barrier, they all swam towards the sea surface - although the Mermaid is an amphibian, it also needs to surface to breathe air.

If they cannot breathe air, they will surely drown in the sea water.

This is actually a very difficult thing.

Common Mermaids are hatched in the crevices of reefs and only need to go into the sea and then surface.

And they were born on the bottom of the sea!

This place is dozens of meters deep from the sea surface. Both the water pressure and the chaotic magic are incomparable. It is simply hellish in difficulty.

Some of these ducklings failed.

They were exhausted and struggled to sink to the bottom of the sea. They died before they even saw the sunlight above the sea.

But more ducklings still struggled to swim towards the sea surface.

Survival of the fittest. This is a very basic thing for World of Warcraft.

If you are not strong enough, you will die.

Cloya has good eyesight and can clearly see them struggling to swim upwards in the sea.

Soon, the first successful duckling appeared.

It swam hard and broke through the water directly, rushing out of the sea, facing the golden sunshine and warm sea breeze, flapping its wings and making a joyful "quack" sound.

The sun and sea breeze quickly dried its feathers.

At this moment, the sea breeze seemed to become a lot gentler.

The sea dolphins that had been waiting nearby saw it successfully emerge from the water, and quickly swam over, opened their mouths and spit out a ball of light silver minced meat.

"Chirp~" The sea dolphin signaled it to eat quickly.

I don’t know if it was because the little duck felt the kindness of Uncle Dolphin and Aunt Dolphin, but he immediately started to gobble up the food.

Sitting on the bottom of the sea, Croa looked at the somewhat familiar silver fish meat and couldn't help but curl his lips.

Isn't that a silver moon fish?
It is a very rare warm-blooded fish with fish blood containing special magical powers flowing in its body. It is an excellent food for nourishing the body.

For these newly born ducklings, being able to eat such a big meal is of course of great benefit to their growth and development.

The sea dolphins watched it eat the fish paste, their eyes sparkling with joy - during this time of getting along, they had already established a good relationship with the ducks.

If you love someone, you will also care about his or her cubs.

That's why they specifically catch this kind of fish and prepare to feed it to the ducklings.

While the little duck was eating the minced fish, more than a dozen more little ducks came out of the water, gathered around, and began eating the minced fish.

Well...there are only these fifteen.

Chloe sighed softly.

There were more than sixty fertilized duck eggs in total, but only fifteen ducklings successfully reached the sea surface, which means that dozens of them sank to the bottom of the sea.

To be honest, this survival rate is a bit cruel.

He couldn't help but glance at the Fishtail Sea Duck King beside him.

The latter was not staring at the ducks on the sea, but at the little ducks that had sunk to the bottom of the sea, with obvious sadness in his eyes.

As the king of the duck flock, its first mission is of course to strengthen the race, but while strengthening the flock it must also ensure that the flock becomes stronger.

That's why it lets the ducks lay their fertilized eggs here.

Although many died, and even its children died, but... those newborn ducklings will definitely be stronger than them.

It couldn't help but move a little closer to Kloya, nudged Kloya's trouser leg with its mouth, and buried its head in it.

Being spoiled by a duck...

Croa didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn't chase it away.

"Don't be sad, it's a habit." He was just about to comfort the Sea Duck King, but the ducks around him suddenly became restless.

"Quack, quack, quack!"

The sounds of the ducks were full of panic and tension.

One by one they left the bubbles of the air coral and swam rapidly toward the surface of the sea, like torpedoes moving across the seabed.

After hearing the voice, the Sea Duck King immediately left Croa's trouser leg without any trace of decadence, just like a soldier rushing to the battlefield.

"What happened?"

Croa looked up, and his pupils shrank.

He saw in the distance some huge gray-black sharks swimming towards him, their skins filled with the smell of ominousness and death on the seabed.

The leader was none other than the level 4 demon shark!
It is extremely huge, just like a black submarine.

The group of devil sharks came with great force, and it was obvious that their target was the ducks and sea dolphins on the sea.

"Phew, you've come just in time." After a brief moment of surprise, Kroya quickly calmed down and his expression became serious.

He took out his staff from the shell and held it in his hand, then stood up and left the bubble.

A level four magical beast, he wanted to see if he could kill this shark with his current strength - it was always a time bomb just cruising nearby like this.

Croa had planned to get rid of it long ago.

Now is the perfect time.

When he left the coral bubble, the sea dolphins had already discovered these old rivals, and they made "chirp" sounds.

The cry of the sea dolphin is very penetrating in the sea water and quickly attracted the attention of the fish swimming around it.

Fish of various colors gathered like a whirlwind, surrounding the sea dolphin and guarding against the sharks.

The ducks had also gathered by this time. Having cooperated with each other many times, they huddled together and gathered their magic power under the leadership of the Sea Duck King, intending to give the sharks a hard blow.

The war between the ducks, fish and sharks was about to break out.

At this moment, a red light suddenly flashed at the bottom of the sea, as fast as teleportation. In just a split second, it hit the Demon Shark King.
