Chapter 31: Poor, Weak and Helpless
"What is that, slime!?"
Because the black shadow hit Du En's back, when Du En turned around, the black shadow had fallen back into the water, so Du En did not see the original appearance of the black shadow clearly.
In the final analysis, it was because the creature with a jelly-like touch was too weak. Although it rushed up very quickly, it was bounced back very quickly.
"Did he die because he hit too hard?"
Staring at the calm water, it's as if you want to see through this bottomless lake.
Du En didn't know that because of him, a poor, weak and helpless slime was trembling at the bottom of the lake.
…
"Great Sage, I seemed to have bumped into something just now. It seemed a little different from a rock."
At the bottom of the lake, because he had just learned a new skill and moved at high speed through the reaction force of the water jet, the slime accidentally bumped into Dun and was bounced back into the water, thinking to himself.
"Explanation. According to the sense of touch, the thing touched is (clothing), which is used by intelligent creatures to cover the body. It is inferred that the possibility of it being a human being is 90%, and the possibility of other intelligent creatures is 10%."
Another voice sounded in Slime's mind.
"Humans!? Are there humans in this world?"
Hearing the voice's answer, the slime at the bottom of the lake suddenly became excited.
"Solution. The possibility of human beings existing in this world is 99%, and the possibility of other intelligent creatures existing is more than 99%."
"However, it's impossible to appear openly and openly in front of ordinary people like this." Slime thought in frustration.
"Answer. The probability that humans will regard slimes as the same kind is 0%, and the probability of exorcising slimes as monsters is 100%."
"Wait, wait a minute, what do you mean by expulsion?" Slime asked in a panic when he heard another voice in his mind.
"Explanation. Exorcism means (killing), and it is the practice of making life disappear. The possibility that humans will kill slimes as monsters is 100%."
Unspeakably silent, Slime did not expect that after becoming like this, he would actually be at risk of being killed by humans, even though he was still the same kind before.
Yes, although it is a slime now, three months ago, this slime was still a living human being.
However, due to an accident, he was stabbed by a gangster who fled, he bled profusely and died.
When he woke up again, he found that he had become what he is now, and the voice that had been ringing in his mind since just now was the "Great Sage", one of his two special abilities.
The Great Sage has five effects.
Thinking acceleration: The speed of perception is increased a thousand times.
Analysis and identification: analysis and identification of objects.
Parallel calculation: Separate the objects that need to be analyzed from the thinking loop and perform calculations separately.
Chant of Destruction: When using magic, there is no need to chant.
Senluowanxiang: Know all the things in this world that are not hidden.
The voice that answered it just now is one of the effects of the "Great Sage" (All Things). In order to answer its questions more conveniently, it has transformed itself and can answer its questions in the form of "Words of the World".
Generally speaking, the "Word of the World" will only sound when the world changes, or when skills are acquired and evolved.
Now, because of the ability of the "Great Sage", as long as it doesn't understand something, it can be understood by asking the "Great Sage".
"If you can't appear in front of humans, you can't appear in front of humans. But I don't know when the humans above will leave! Do I have to stay in this cold water until then?" Slime was dissatisfied.
complained.
A slime only needs to have enough magic power to move and does not need to breathe. It is no problem even if it stays in the water, so in theory, it can stay in the water until the human on the shore leaves.
As for its dissatisfaction, in its mind, the great sage gave a straight answer.
"Solution. Because I have acquired (cold tolerance), I won't feel the cold."
"There is no need to explain this kind of thing!"
It seems that it said a bunch of unclear words when it died, so it got a lot of endurance bonuses that it didn't know about, but these are not the point at all.
"Great Sage, is there a way to defeat that human being? It would be great if we could get information about this world without hurting him." Slime murmured to himself.
But this time, the great sage did not reply to it immediately.
"Hey, Great Sage, let's talk. I also have the special skill of "Predator". I should be stronger than ordinary slimes, so I should have no problem defeating a human."
Although in its impression, slime has always been the weakest monster, it is a slime with special skills and should be able to defeat an ordinary human.
Its other special skill "Predator" has five effects: prey, analysis, stomach bag, mimicry, and isolation.
Predation: Capture objects and store them in the stomach pouch for further manipulation.
Analysis: Analyze and research the stored objects to create props that can be crafted. If there are enough materials, they can also be copied. When the analysis of the spell is successful, the object's skills and magic can be learned.
Stomach bag: Stores prey objects. In addition, substances produced through analysis can also be stored. Objects stored in the stomach bag will be in a state where time has stopped.
Mimicry: Reproduces the absorbed object and can use its equivalent abilities. However, only objects whose intelligence analysis is successful.
Isolation: Contains effects that cannot be analyzed or are harmful. Through harmless treatment, the magic power is restored.
With the two special abilities of "Great Sage" and "Predator", it shouldn't lose to a human, probably.
"So, great sage, answer me for a moment."
Slime shouted loudly with his consciousness, and this time, the Great Sage finally answered.
"Solution. After calculation, the possibility of defeating the human just now is 0, and it is not recommended to attack him."
"Huh? Great Sage, were you just calculating the difference in combat effectiveness between the two sides? But the winning rate of 0 or something is too much."
"Answer. Based on the speed when using the skill (water pressure propulsion) just now, combined with the impact caused by the size of the slime, the probability of an ordinary human being knocked down or being pushed back is 95%."
"Hey, but it was actually me who was ejected just now, right?"
"Explanation. Because the opponent's body is harder than granite, the impact is not enough to repel or knock down the opponent."
"If the body is harder than granite, then it is no longer human!" Slime shouted loudly in his heart.
"So, there is no way to defeat that kind of monster, right? I get it, I get it, I will just stay in the water and wait for him to leave."
No matter what happens, it will not leave the lake. It will go out after a week, no, three days to check the situation.
Slime thought firmly in his heart.
"Wait a minute, Great Sage, I seem to feel something is wrong."
"Explanation. Because the current body has been artificially turned sideways."
"No wonder I feel top-heavy." Slime said with sudden realization.
"Σ(っ°Д°;)っ, but why was I being rolled over?"
This time, the great sage did not need to answer it, a curious voice sounded in its mind.
"Did you attack me just now?"
