Growing into Uncharted Lands

Ed started to use wisps of himself as a form of mini-drones that would give him shocking pain as a means to return the footage.

'I seem to lose a couple of health points each time as well' The pain was obviously because the wisps were being hurt, pain usually followed injury. Still, Ed didn't plan on stopping.

'I'll figure out how to heal myself on the side' He was straining his mind, and if he wasn't careful, that would come to bite him in the back. Nevertheless, that could wait. His mushroom empire had only just started!

Well, in truth, his mushroom empire took only a bit to build. The split portions of himself revealed that each batch of spores would be fully matured an hour after being released. In this hour he would be able to release two batches of spores. By the next hour, the matured spores would become mushrooms that have a cooldown of their own which would allow them to release spores as well.
