Me? A slime? A villain who destroys a nation? Fine!

As the slime mother's expression gradually relaxed, the little goblin finally opened her eyes wide with excitement, her eyes shining with emotion.

"Great! Great! It's getting better! It's working! That's wonderful! Nephew, my adorable nephew~!" The little fairy excitedly flew around Lin Ming again, then pounced on his face and kissed him hard, making loud "pop pop" sounds.

Lin Ming felt as if he were being swarmed by mosquitoes.

After Lin Ming's face was covered in little strawberries from kisses, the little vixen reluctantly pulled away, only to be pushed away by the annoyed Lin Ming.

"Alright, alright, it's just a little bit. There are still many things to deal with at this stage."

Lin Ming looked at the rose vines that formed a defensive shield around him. He had used up so much magic power, and now he only had 20% left.

Although the consumption of magic eyes is not high, if they are used for infrastructure construction, even if the materials consumed are small, once they are piled up in large quantities, the consumption will be higher than that of slime magic cannons.

Lin Ming didn't know why, perhaps it was because he had used the Demon Eye too much, but his body was constantly flashing with green light.

It's getting faster and faster, more and more obvious.

In no time at all, that ability of [ecological evolution] suddenly shone brightly.

Frequent triggering of numerous wood elements, reaching their limit, unlocks the [Grass Forest Slime].

"Hmm?" Lin Ming twisted his body in surprise, and with a "glug", his liquid began to emit a green light. Then the bubbles boiled and quickly turned into a green slime, with two small green leaves standing up on its head, turning it into a strange variety with small green leaves on its head.

"Huh? Ah?" Lin Ming was stunned for a long time.

The little fairy flapped its tiny wings excitedly, blinking incredulously, "Oh? Nephew, you seem to have evolved! Hey? You're the kind of creature that grows in the green forest, and a little goblin version at that!"

Usually, we start with the Dora breed. Nephew, you always manage to come up with some really novel situations. The little fairy snuggled up to Lin Ming's head, hugging him like a sleeping mat.

"Huh? How did it evolve? You don't understand? Is this how ecological changes work?"

He activated the "Ecological Change" ability on the panel, which was given to him by his slime mother.

This ability seems to influence the type of slime based on changes in the environment and surrounding circumstances.

In addition to his normal little goo form, he also has a [Grass Forest Slime] form, and it seems that he can switch back between these two forms.

Lin Ming switched back to Little Gulu's form, and soon the little green leaf on his head shrank back, and his body color returned to purple-blue.

"It's back to normal!" The little fairy exclaimed with delight, her eyes filled with childlike wonder as if she were watching a circus act.

Both forms are so cute, I love them!

The types of slimes are generally fixed and cannot be changed. They are basically from one region and their type is determined at birth.

But the nephew's situation is completely different. He not only possesses superior intelligence and combat ability at birth, but also has the ability to change his species regardless of his birthplace.

"What's the use of you being surprised? I don't even know how I became like this." Lin Ming scratched his head.

After all, the term "ecological evolution" literally means that it changes according to the ecological situation, which is completely passive. But the ecology around Lin Ming has not changed, has it?

"I think it's because you used too much of that," the little fairy said, pointing to the surrounding walls of roses.

"Do you mean the Magic Eye?" Lin Ming seemed to have noticed something. He had indeed been using this thing very frequently lately, because the Magic Eye could be used for infrastructure stacking, so he had used it a lot.

So Lin Ming switched back, and the blue slime color changed back to a bright green, with the pair of small leaves sprouting again from the top of his head. He just didn't know what this green grass mode could do.

Do you eat grass?

Lin Ming twisted his head and looked at his new skin, the little green leaves on his head swaying like rabbit ears.

The little fairy seemed to really like Lin Ming's new look, burying herself in the little green leaves on his head, squinting her little mouth, and rubbing against him with enjoyment.

In this state, Little Gulu's expression changed, and his two pupils turned completely white and glowed.

When Lin Ming switched to this mode, he was surprised to find that the consumption of the Magic Eye had actually changed from 2% to 1%.

"Wow, I unlocked something amazing! The cost of the Magic Eye has been reduced by half."

An epic upgrade!

Is this grassy forest-like shape probably because roses are a type of herbaceous plant?

Why didn't it turn into a fire slime after being roasted by fire before? Maybe it wasn't roasted very often...

Moreover, this form is lighter and more agile, so you don't have to crawl on the grass anymore; you can jump directly, which is something Little Gulu couldn't do before. Little Gulu had to roll to move quickly.

So the ability his mother gave him is really that useful? Green Grass Slime, Wind's Blessing, Rose Magic Eye—isn't this a complete green set?

"Hehe~ Nephew, you look so cute! The two leaves on your head are the same color as mine." The little fairy was so happy that heart bubbles popped out, and her liking for Lin Ming grew even stronger.

Lin Ming and she are now wearing matching colors.

"Alright, let's go for another stroll. While I still have a little magic left, I'll use it all to help my mother clean up the pollution."

And so, with the little imp on his head, Lin Ming hopped and skipped out to carry out the cleanup mission.

However, in order to conserve magic power, Lin Ming did not directly create a wall of roses. Instead, he used his magic eye to create a cross-shaped vine, forming a ring around it, and planted it in the polluted land.

Because the black mud will disperse to a certain distance when it encounters the cross, as long as Lin Ming controls this gap well, he can add another cross rose just before the dispersal effect disappears, thus achieving the most economical state.

Making it into a wall would consume too much mana.

In addition, he now saves half the magic, making this method more efficient for the job.

Soon, Lin Ming buried himself in cleaning up the pollution around the mainland, and the sky gradually turned red, ushering in the beautiful sunset.

In that withered, dense forest, the little fairy flew to the last spot where black mud was overflowing, pointed and called for Little Gulu to come over, so that her nephew could tie the last rose cross on it.

Looking down from the sky, the entire slime forest was evenly covered with cross-shaped roses, forcing the black mud that had spread from the ground into a circle and driving it out of the forest of Mother Slime's ruins.

Although Lin Ming and the little fairy handled the situation very carefully and thoroughly, after Lin Ming finished tying the last rose cross...

He was still startled by the dense, endless expanse of black mud.

It stretched as far as the eye could see, as if the back half of everything was covered in black mud, just like a black sea.

This made Lin Ming worry: how long could his cross-shaped roses last? Because the situation here was different from that in the village, there was no root cause that Lin Ming had dealt with.

Then these cruciferous roses won't be as strong. They will wither over time, weaken due to lack of water and photosynthesis, and may even become contaminated.

The problem with Slime Mom can't be solved at its root; it only prolongs the contamination period.

Lin Ming felt somewhat guilty, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't handle such a massive workload right now, just like the toxins in his body; he could only come up with a plan that could barely alleviate the situation.

"It's alright, nephew. You've done a great job already. Your sister shouldn't be in so much pain anymore." The little fairy probably noticed Lin Ming's thoughts, so she hugged him and comforted him.

"Thank you, my lovely little nephew—"

The little fairy's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down. With tears in her eyes, she lay on Lin Ming's body, burying her face in his soft liquid, her face full of emotion.

Relying on Little Gulu is the right thing to do.

"Okay, isn't this what I should do? My head feels wet, come down quickly." Lin Ming felt terrible.

after that.

Lin Ming went back to check on the slime mother, but didn't disturb her sleep. Instead, he turned around, stepped onto the slime line, and teleported back to the village.

The little imp that was still perched on his head suddenly fell face-first into the mud, its head burying its head in the ground, letting out a muffled scream.

"Goo!?"

As he traveled to the other side of the village, Lin Ming once again bounced off the slime line and landed steadily.

After all, he still had the black-clad nun to deal with.

After a busy day, I finally had some free time to have a proper chat with her.

But when Lin Ming returned there, he found that the nun had disappeared.

Didn't those guys in Miral keep an eye on things for me?

Instead, some unfamiliar sounds began to approach the village, which confused him through the slime lines.

As dusk fell, a group of horse-drawn carriages rumbled into the village. They brought with them a small army and several guards and knights.

Stepping down from the carriage was a richly dressed, plump nobleman, and beside him stood a very easygoing bald man.

"My God, is this village still alive?" Everyone was incredulous as soon as they got off the bus.

Logically speaking, this village should have been submerged in darkness, given that bandits roam freely here and infection is rampant; it's rumored to be an abandoned village.

But seeing villagers and dwarves planting crops here, and seeing well-organized defensive walls forming a protective barrier, the nobleman clearly realized that this place was definitely not as simple as he had imagined.

"My God, this might mean that God is on my side!" The bald man next to him excitedly slapped his thigh.

"I can't believe it! This village was on the verge of becoming a dead village due to pollution, but after he went abroad to seek refuge for so long, it's actually doing quite well!"

This unexpected credit filled the bald man with immense joy. He immediately bowed deeply to the nobleman before him:

"Then, as the village chief, I offer this meticulously maintained village to you, my lord, as a token of my loyalty."
