Chapter 22. A foreign mushroom came to the mushroom garden
Lin Jun now feels that his eyes are almost blinded by the light - if he had eyes.
Even though there are many Puji in your own mushroom garden, the basic version of Puji all has standard 1 point in all five attributes and 10 health points, which is at the bottom of the food chain. Is 3000 health points a level that ordinary Puji can reach?
Of course, it was still very easy for Lin Jun to control her, but the fixed effect of that row was really enviable.
I envy her so much that I want to eat her and take away her abilities...
Just kidding, it's rare to have someone here who can communicate with me.
Besides, judging from the panel, the Puji in front of him is most likely a human being. As for living people, Lin Jun is not yet to the point of not being a human being.
"Are you calm now?" Lin Jun controlled the hand that was holding her and loosened it a little so as not to put too much pressure on her.
There was suddenly a voice in her head, which made Inanna panic. She still didn't know whether the other party was a human or a demon. She only knew that all the Puji nearby were controlled by the other party.
Could it be the follow-up to the conspiracy, the person responsible for executing me is here?
"If you want to... kill me, then kill me!"
"Why am I going to kill you? Could you please calm down?"
"Why?"
Foreign mushrooms are so rude that they don’t even apologize for messing up their own mushroom garden.
"I am the lord of all the mushrooms on this floor. You can call me Lin Jun. What's your name?"
"Mushroom... Lord..."
Inanna didn't know how the words mushroom and lord were connected.
In her impression, aren't mushrooms a low-level existence with a maximum level of 10? Even at the maximum level, they will be used as food by other monsters of only a few levels?
The scene she saw here was not something that only a level 10 monster could have, not to mention the fact that there was a way of communication similar to level 5 magic telepathy.
And this is obviously not just talking.
Since the connection was established, the range that Inanna could perceive had spread far beyond a few meters around her.
And it was even clearer and more subtle, as if it was receiving the perception of all the mushrooms around it.
Inanna had no idea how powerful this mushroom lord was.
Anyway, try to pretend that you are also Puji and get away with it.
"I, I'm also Puji, I don't have a name..."
"Then why don't I give you a name, Inanna."
“…”
well?
Why would he know?
Could it be that this telepathic skill also has the effect of reading minds?
The Pujis that had been dispersing around him slowly gathered around him again. Was he going to be killed for lying?
No!
Fortunately, when there was still a little space left, the Pujis stopped and Lin Jun's voice sounded in his mind again.
"I'm very friendly, but the premise is that you don't play tricks on me. Otherwise, I don't mind adding more fertilizer to moisten the soil. Do you understand?"
Inanna tapped her mushroom cap.
"Then let's do it again, name."
"I, Inanna St. Clare..."
"What's your identity?"
"The daughter of the Duke...Amara..."
The Duke's daughter?
Is the world outside a structure similar to that of the Middle Ages?
No wonder with the blessing of the Church and the fruit of life, he can still have 3000 health points after turning into Puji.
No matter which world you are in, having a good father is a shortcut to life.
"Tell me, how did you, the daughter of a duke, end up here with me?"
Everything has been revealed, so there is no need for Inanna to hide the rest.
Not only did he explain how he was forced to fall, he also answered all of Lin Jun's other questions in detail.
Lin Jun took the opportunity to learn a lot of information.
For example, the place where he was actually was an underground city located within the territory of the Inanna family, and it was a deep area at that. No wonder there were monsters everywhere.
For example, there are all kinds of races out there, and humans are on the verge of a war with the vampires in the demon race. The two traitors who want to kill Inanna are most likely colluding with the vampires.
Not only that, he also realized that Inanna, a local, did not seem to be able to see the panel, otherwise she would not try to conceal her name.
Maybe this panel is a hidden benefit for "brave warriors"?
In short, Lin Jun, who had gained a lot, now finds this pink Puji much more pleasing to the eye.
"Inanna, you are already a fool now, what are your plans for the future?"
"What are your plans for the future...you really won't turn me into fertilizer, will you?" After being under pressure before, Inanna is now a little afraid of Lin Jun.
"I promise."
"I want to go back to the earth..."
Inanna not only wants to return to the ground, but also wants to find her father, lift the transformation, and then seek revenge on the two traitors!
"Ah, back to the ground,"
Lin Jun was delighted when he heard it.
“I want to go to the ground, too!
But as you can see, you are a mushroom and I am also a mushroom. How can we get through the underground world full of horrible monsters to the surface?
Not to mention the distance, on our level, the passage leading up is in the lair of a fire demon."
The Fire Demon is a high-level monster that is at least LV55!
Even if Inanna hadn't been transformed, it would be impossible for her to defeat him, and it's hard to say whether she could even escape if she encountered him.
"By the way, won't your father the Duke come to rescue you?"
“I think so…”
Inanna remembered what the two traitors had said, that her father was doomed, and she felt unsure.
The pink mushroom cap visibly wilted.
Yes, after turning into Puji, she couldn't even use the magic she was best at, so how could she possibly return to the ground?
"Alright, alright, now that we are here, we might as well make the best of it. You must be hungry after making such a fuss for so long, so come and eat something first."
Don’t let the new thing you just picked up starve to death.
A Puji with a green umbrella hat jumped out of the mushroom field, walked up to Inanna and showed her the way. Inanna did feel a little hungry.
"Is this you?"
"Yes and no, all the mushrooms here are me."
In fact, he does have a mushroom body, but he is not going to talk about it.
Inanna nodded, not quite understanding, and the two of them came to a fungal carpet formed by hyphae.
Lin Jun kindly demonstrated to Inanna how Puji eats.
He controlled Puji to lie down on the spot, allowing the mycelium on the ground to connect to it and supply nutrients. It was replenished in less than 5 minutes.
The mushroom cap of Inanna next to her changed color because of what she saw.
What's this?
Let a bunch of hyphae insert into the body and inject something unknown?
This scene was difficult for Inanna, who had been taking food with her mouth for 16 years, to accept.
Lin Jun didn't urge the child to eat. If the child didn't eat, it must be because he was not hungry enough. If he was really hungry, he would eat on his own.
Inanna's gradually weakened body eventually forced her to lie on the fungal mat.
This feeling!
Nutrients flow in from countless connection points under the body, and a sense of satisfaction of being fed and filled arises spontaneously.
So happy...
Only after the nutrients were sufficient and the mycelium no longer provided any more did Inanna get up reluctantly.
As mushrooms, it seems surprisingly good?
No, no, what am I thinking about!
Inanna, has even your brain turned into a mushroom?
Oh, the brain has indeed turned into a mushroom cap, and it’s pink…
Lin Jun had no idea of what Inanna was thinking. When she finished her meal, she began to introduce the various areas of the mushroom garden to her.
"You know about the cafeteria, and you've also seen the Pooji planting area, which is where you knocked down my Pooji."
"See that rock wall? There's a mining area underneath it."
"That's the breeding area. They have some rolling beetles and slimes. They're all aggressive. Don't go there casually."
"See that giant mushroom on the right? That's the division of labor area. It's hard to explain. You can go back and see it for yourself."
"Don't go in that direction. If you go that way you'll be out of the mushroom garden. It's not safe."
Lin Jun continued to introduce himself, while Inanna beside him crashed from the first word.
What plantation and what breeding area?
Inanna felt that Lin Jun was not introducing the area within the dungeon, but rather a small town with complete functions.
Am I still in the Amethyst Dungeon?
What about other monsters?
After all, how can a bunch of mushrooms have such a large territory deep in an extremely dangerous dungeon?
Inanna's mind was full of question marks and she became more and more confused the more she thought about it. She felt that the deeper levels of the dungeon were extremely strange and even common sense no longer existed.
