The first snow of winter arrived, and the Slime Rancher Plan was temporarily brought to an end...
The plan had failed, yet it had also succeeded!
Why say that?
First of all, Little Ball had indeed successfully split off a new Slime. Unfortunately, the newly appeared Slime did not count as a contracted battle pet of Moss's!
And Moss herself did not know how to form a contract. Unless she raised this little Slime for several months, just as she had fed Little Ball before, and let it acknowledge her as its master on its own.
But if that happened, then the ranch plan would have been a complete failure, because the process was simply too slow in terms of efficiency.
However, Moss had succeeded in expanding her storage space!
This was all thanks to the Slime Cultivation talent.
This talent could influence Slime reproduction through splitting and determine their direction of growth, as stated in its description.
The key lay in the splitting and reproduction aspect!
Slime Formation had already been explained before.
Mana Essence + water + a weak soul
The part that had always troubled Moss was the soul!
Even now, if Little Ball wanted to split off a new Slime on its own, it would inevitably have to devour other creatures.
But now that she had this talent, Little Ball no longer needed to do that!
Because Moss could use her own soul as material to form a Slime!
With just a tiny fragment of her soul, she could split a Slime out through Little Ball!
Moreover, this newly appeared Slime would have an innate favorability toward Moss. Once it developed consciousness, it would automatically acknowledge her as its master!
Thus, the plan to expand the space had been realized!
The only drawback was that splitting
