Chapter 215 214. Everything is ready
Stone Castle Dungeon.
The castle area has been almost completely covered by the fungal blanket, and most of the upper area has also spread.
As for the lower area, although it is the area with the most abundant magic power, seeing that time is running out, Lin Jun only set up a few observation points to study the entire process of the dungeon collapse.
And in the middle area, in a hidden corner, the Burrowers opened up a secret room.
This secret room can only be entered through the mycelium network. Ordinary people cannot find it unless they can dig through fifty meters of rock.
The secret room is covered with fungal mats, but unlike other fungal mats, these fungal mats are light green in color.
A thin metal pole was inserted in the center of the secret room. This was the treasure that Lin Jun "digged" out from the ruins behind the gate.
This unknown metal material has been around for who knows how many years, but apart from being covered in dust, there is actually no damage. What’s more, it is heat-resistant!
Knight No. 2 took out the [Sunstone (Remnant)] and placed it on the pole.
The other Puji also took out the [Sunstone (fragment)].
After carefully calculating the angle, he finally got it to fit perfectly!
Golden light flowed from the fracture, and the two fragments instantly merged into one!
【Sunstone (remaining)】
The name of the panel remained unchanged, but the light and heat emitted suddenly surged, just like lighting up a small sun in a secret room.
The two Pujis retreated repeatedly. Even with the eighth level of [High Temperature Resistance], they would still get burned if they got too close.
Fortunately, the metal pole lived up to expectations and held the sunstone firmly.
In the secret room, the light green fungal carpet exposed to strong light greedily absorbed the sunlight, and then transmitted a steady stream of magic power out through the fungal net!
Although it was just one more fragment, the amount of magic power produced was more than doubled than before.
The magic power generated by such a small secret room is equivalent to half of the magic power collected from the fungal carpet in the entire Amethyst Dungeon.
Looking at this sunstone, I realized that I had only collected about half of it. How much magic power could a complete sunstone produce?
Moreover, in the final analysis, using [photosynthesis] to use the sunstone as an energy core is purely a unique method that Lin Jun found on his own.
Logically speaking, the sunstone should still have its original functions, but unfortunately Lin Jun has not figured it out yet.
It would be nice if I could find some kind of "artifact manual".
Speaking of uses, Lin Jun couldn't help but think of the scene where the fragments had weakened and harmed the piglet.
A complete sunstone... Could it be the core gem of a certain weapon that is specifically designed to defeat vampires?
That would be a bit embarrassing... He had no intention of causing trouble for the Empire...
This time, not only the Sunstone was transported here, but also a split mushroom was brought here and stuffed under the mushroom cap of the Knight Puji as a retreat. The main body stayed on the sixth floor of Amethyst for the time being.
The biggest contributor this time is the piglet.
Originally, Lin Jun was considering raising some blood bags to improve the lives of the piglets, but the piglets obviously had their own ideas.
"Boss! I want to become stronger!" Looking at the piglet kneeling on one knee with a burning desire in her scarlet eyes, Lin Jun didn't expect her to be so ambitious...
It’s not impossible.
Although Xiaozhu has many skills, her magic income has increased significantly now, so it is affordable to use some of it to add one or two core skills to her.
After discussing with Xiaozhu, we finally decided to give her two skills: [Magic Storage LV7] and [Petrification Ray LV3].
The former one actually already exists in the piglet, but it is only at level four.
The total amount of magic power of the piglet is not that high. The reason why he was defeated by Puji was that he had used up all his mana.
As for the petrification ability, although the level is a bit low, it is indeed a good skill similar to the first sight kill.
If the opponent is caught off guard, using this skill to petrify his joints can pose a huge threat even in battle.
Moreover, Lin Jun also agreed to help her continue to improve this skill level in the future.
Although it's a bit slow to practice on your own, it's not a problem to get to level 5 or 6.
To be honest, Lin Jun originally wanted to give her a chance to add [Photosynthesis], but after thinking about it, it would be better to find other vampires to do experiments first. After all, it is a precious skill slot...
The piglet was sent into the mushroom house for "upgrading and transformation". On the other side, Norris, who had just been strengthened in cold resistance, could not wait to get out of the mushroom house and dived into his baby Jida.
Jida used [Assault Ejection LV6] and jumped two meters high.
He failed to keep his balance when he landed, and fell heavily on his side.
Fortunately, the ninth-level [Chitinous Shell] did not crack due to this small collision, but only left a few white marks.
"Isn't it easy to use?" Lin Jun asked.
“No, no, no! Boss! It’s my fault!” Norris explained hurriedly, “It’s too strong! I’ll be fine after I get used to it! It will definitely work!”
"Okay, but be careful and don't hurt yourself." Lin Jun said earnestly, "You are now an indispensable core member of the mushroom garden."
"Boss...Boss!" Caught off guard, Norris was so moved that his nose felt sore and his eyes were slightly wet.
Core members!
Although he never said it, in his heart, he always felt that he was just an insignificant marginal character, but he didn't expect that he was so important in the boss's heart? !
The feeling of being cared for and valued made his heart boil. He sniffed and his voice was a little choked: "I, I will pay attention!"
On the other side, at the door of Xiao Hei's exclusive mushroom house, a fat boy named Puji, who has a round body and exudes a "Buddhist" aura, is helping Xiao Hei move.
Xiao Hei had most of his body stuck in the soft mushroom belly, and he grunted and took out handfuls of sparkling things, then happily carried them back to his mushroom house.
It carried things extremely carefully. Occasionally, if a small piece of "treasure" fell to the ground, it would stop immediately, pick it up carefully with its claws, and repeatedly confirm that no piece was missed before continuing its work.
Among these sparkling things, 30% were scales contributed by Norris, 70% were cheap glass beads, and there were also a few real gems given by Lin Jun mixed in.
Now, almost all the core members and important items have been transferred to the relatively safe Stone Fortress Underground City. They are just waiting for the deep area to reach the core area, which will only take two days.
Everything went well, except for one thing - Chis ran away!
The two hunting Pujis could not find any trace of Qis in the vast snowfield. They advanced in vain for several days, and finally their magic power was exhausted and they lost contact.
It was expected, but still disappointing.
Regarding Chis's origins, Lin Jun discovered some relevant information in the ruins behind the gate.
Quite classic mural information.
Obviously Chiss didn't appear here by accident.
There are only two incomplete murals that can be distinguished, and these are the results of Lin Jun's hard work.
The first picture: A magnificent fortress with thick walls towering into the sky is being besieged by a tidal army of insects, many of which are species familiar to Lin Jun. Inside the fortress, tiny human figures are desperately resisting, and upon closer inspection, some of them clearly have some non-human characteristics.
The second picture shows more than a dozen huge wooden boats sailing on the sea, trapped in the encirclement of sea beasts! The picture is filled with sea beasts of all sizes, surging waves, and the boats that are beginning to capsize.
Lin Jun wasn't sure if this meant Chis had many more underwater troops.
However, now that it has run away, there is no point in thinking about it anymore.
