Chapter 176 175. First Contact
The few items that were truly suitable for Puji and of excellent quality were treasured by Lin Jun and added to his increasingly filling treasure house.
What about those piles of armor and swords that are of no use?
All of them were stuffed into the five round stomachs of "Fat House Puji"!
After you finish drawing one, switch to another one. The drop rate will be higher recently.
Knight Puji is repairing his butt in Lin Jun's old hiding place in the swamp area.
Unlike ordinary Puji, you can just slap some fresh mycelium on it and twist it a few times and it will come alive.
A Puji with high attributes is more time-consuming and mana-consuming to repair.
It’s okay that Puji’s injury can be repaired, but what makes Lin Jun most distressed is the dragon scale shield.
There were two sword marks on it, one deep and one shallow. The deep one was the sword that shrunk the earth, and the shallow one was the sword that was blocked from a distance when the robe was caught.
I thought this sturdy dragon scale shield could be a long-term support, but now it seems that if it withstands a few more impacts of the same level, it will be completely scrapped.
As for the guild, according to the information sent back by Aidin, they have not given up the plan to solve the problem, but this is also expected.
Lin Jun is now waiting for Fan Puji to come over, and persuade her with both emotion and reason to unite and perform a show for humans.
Of course, he had also considered the possibility that Fan Puji would betray the fungus network.
If this is true...
Then Aidin, who contacted her directly, would have to give up reluctantly.
Actually it’s okay, I just received it and I don’t have deep feelings for it yet.
However, the plan to develop towards the surface has to be put on hold.
The strategy will change to: launch guerrilla warfare with humans in the first few levels; at the same time, speed up exploration in the deep areas at all costs and seize the core of the dungeon as quickly as possible!
As for the worse situation - human encirclement + collapse of the Amethyst Dungeon.
Lin Jun still has the worst plan for this: either find a way to escape from the underground city and dig a hole in a sparsely populated area on the surface to hide; or transfer to other underground cities through the cracks and develop again.
Anyway, there are many plans. As a mushroom, as long as you want to live, you can always survive.
However, if they were really driven out of the Purple Crystal Underground City, the feud between humans and themselves would become even bigger...
After dealing with these post-war trivial matters, Lin Jun originally planned to try out his new skills, but there was an accident at the caveman training base - Norris was almost killed.
Lin Jun decided to let most of the Pujis return to the deep area along the webpath of the sixth-layer rift to deal with any emergencies.
…
While Lin Jun was competing with Shiwu in a battle of wits and courage, a completely different, primitive farce was being played out at the caveman training base.
The two cavemen stood a few steps apart, each holding a rough bone spear, facing each other.
No sound came out of their mouths, but they were madly threatening each other in the fungus web.
By communicating through the fungus network, thoughts can reach each other's minds directly, which is much more efficient and direct than their primitive and clumsy caveman language that is like the friction between stones.
Since being incorporated into the bacterial network and getting used to this convenient "heart language", most cave dwellers have almost abandoned the bad habit of speaking.
Just when the battle was about to break out, a silver light flashed, and the two cavemen's spears broke at the same time.
"well--"
Norris appeared in the middle with an annoyed look on his face, glaring at the two guys.
"How many times has this happened recently? Fighting over mating rights!?"
[7th]
Yellow Book kindly reminded.
“Tsk!”
Primitive! Stupid!
In the past, when classes were divided based on pheromones, naturally only a small number of high-ranking people had the right to mate.
It’s different now, everyone is equal, and they have switched to seizing things by force.
It would be fine if these cavemen just fought each other for such things, but once they started fighting, they would really kill each other!
It must be said that if Lin Jun had not intervened, dividing the cave dwellers into classes based on pheromones might actually be a good choice, at least it would be more orderly.
Norris wrote down all the problems regarding the cavemen during this period, and reported them all to the boss after he finished what he called "entertaining the guests."
And now, he had to beat these two cave dwellers himself, otherwise they would dare to come again after repairing their spears.
Norris just raised his hand, ready to teach the two cave dwellers a lesson, but suddenly he caught a glimpse of something strange out of the corner of his eye—a dark red light flickering faintly at the far end of the dim cave.
Red light?
The lighting in the cave is almost entirely dependent on fluorescent mushrooms, and the fluorescence of mushrooms obviously does not include red.
So the red dot in the distance was particularly eye-catching to Norris.
“Senior, what is that?” The distance was a bit far and Norris couldn’t see clearly, so he asked the yellow book directly.
However, Yellow Book, who was always good at reconnaissance, reacted even slower than Norris this time.
[What what?]
After a brief pause, the yellow book seemed to "focus" on the target.
[Huh?]
[Is there really a ball floating in the air?]
Just as Norris and Yellow Book were still studying what that thing was, something strange happened!
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The dull sound of a sharp blade cutting flesh suddenly rang out!
The two cavemen in front of Norris, who were holding the broken spears a second ago, didn't even have time to scream before their bodies were instantly dismembered by the invisible attack!
Blood splattered, but did not fall directly to the ground.
Some blood beads seemed to hit an invisible barrier, briefly outlining a vague figure of a monster in mid-air.
!!!
The enemy! The invisible enemy! And it's right around the corner!
Norris retreated quickly and used [Sonic Wave Detection LV6] at the same time.
Norris groaned, and countless chaotic information rushed into his brain frantically, making him dizzy. He was prepared and did not fall directly to the ground.
At the same time, he also "saw" the enemy - three invisible six-clawed monsters, each 3 meters tall!
And that red dot in the distance is a flying eyeball! ?
Without time to think, Norris dodged the attacks of the three monsters in a panic.
The yellow book was in a completely confused state.
[What's going on?]
[What kind of monster is this?]
[Why are there no mood swings?]
"Damn it!" Norris rolled and moved in a panic in the narrow space, narrowly avoiding fatal blows again and again.
The hard rock ground was scratched with deep grooves by invisible sharp claws, and gravel flew everywhere!
He was now completely passive.
Without [Sonic Wave Detection], he was like a blind man. With [Sonic Wave Detection], the terrifying burden brought by the massive amount of information made his brain feel like it was hit by a heavy hammer.
His reaction speed dropped drastically, his head hurt like a splitting headache, and his speed advantage, which he was so proud of, was suppressed to the point where he couldn't even use half of it!
Every detection seems to be overdrawing my nerves.
After another detection, Norris finally couldn't bear the feedback and fell to the ground due to body imbalance.
At the critical moment of life and death, Norris' mind went blank and his body's instinct was faster than thinking!
He pulled the yellow book away almost reflexively and held it in front of himself like a shield!
[Norris! You’re such a bastard! ! ! ]
However, the expected attack did not come.
Puff——!
A teeth-grinding sound, as flesh and blood were torn apart by a huge force, exploded in the air!
Immediately afterwards, a large amount of hot and smelly monster blood splashed out like a fountain, instantly soaking Norris and the yellow book!
In the blood mist, Xiao Hei's figure appeared in front of Norris. In one hand, she held a thick and hideous monster forelimb that had lost its invisibility effect!
The owner of the limb had turned into a headless corpse, falling to the side.
Xiao Hei looked Norris up and down, and found that he was not missing any limbs, so he turned around and threw the monster's arm directly out.
The broken arm tore through the air, making a dull whistle!
There was another dull sound of flesh being pierced!
Another invisible monster in the distance had its chest accurately pierced by the broken arm of its own kind. The huge impact force caused it to fly backwards and hit the rock wall heavily. It twitched twice and then became completely silent.
Almost at the same time, the blood of the monster on the ground condensed into a long spear, which shot out and pierced through the head of the last monster that tried to pounce with incredible precision - Louisa, who was notified by Lin Jun, also hurried over at this time.
"There's... there's another eyeball!" Although Norris was still frightened, he still reminded immediately.
However, when I looked again, the place where the red light was previously on was now pitch black and there was nothing.
Louisa turned into a bat and chased for a distance in the direction Norris pointed, but found nothing.
[You have no conscience! You are using me as a shield again!]
While Yellow Book was cursing Norris for being ungrateful, he was also doubting what was wrong with him as to why he couldn't sense the enemy.
In the process, it also secretly and unnoticedly brought the souls of the two cavemen on the ground into the pages of its own book.
Xiao Hei squatted on the ground and picked up all the silver scales dropped by Norris.
Then she stood on tiptoe and patted Norris's lowered head twice with her slightly bloody claws.
Norris felt warm in his heart, and this clumsy concern made his nose slightly sour... If only the comfort was not so strong!
Louisa looked at the purple blood ball condensed from the monster's blood in her hand, wondering if this thing could be eaten?
In the following time, Norris didn't dare to leave Xiao Hei or Louisa too far, and he stayed there until the Puji army came down.
Lin Jun looked at the six-clawed monster that was thrown into the fungal blanket and had been half decomposed.
What is this?
