Chapter 265 264. It will rise in the sun
Let’s not talk about the blue parrot that chirped and complained after being rescued.
Lin Jun temporarily withdrew most of his attention from that area.
The reason is very simple. On this beautiful and sunny afternoon, I suddenly reached level 60!
There was no hard training, no need to defeat any powerful enemies, just basking in the sun and spreading the fungal blanket, and naturally reached level 60.
Come to think of it, it’s been quite a while since I reached level 59.
During this period, the sunstone was upgraded and successfully spread to the surface for photosynthesis, and was even "fed" by humans.
Above the surface, under Lin Jun's guidance, humans finally "discovered" the correct method to cultivate high-yield mushroom fields!
One is light. The yield of mushroom fields under the sun doubles. Of course, the price is that they need to be watered more frequently to keep them moist.
Another trick is to fertilize the fields with the corpses of monsters.
The fungal mat nourished by monsters not only increases mushroom production dramatically, but also makes it easier to produce fresh and delicious red mushrooms!
With the active cooperation of humans, the fungal mat on the surface has already broken through the original boundaries of Yafeng Town and is rapidly spreading to the surrounding cities.
Moreover, there is no shortage of people to take care of the fungal mats under the sun. The original thousands of refugees have not yet been distributed, not to mention that new refugees continue to pour in.
However, most of the refugees coming now come from the northwest to escape the war.
It is said that the situation on the front line is not good. The human defense line is being beaten back continuously. Those who do not want to be killed by the demons or captured as slaves in those lands can only flee.
Among these desperate migrating groups, there is a rumor that sounds extremely absurd yet extremely tempting: In Yafeng Town, there are endless mushrooms to eat!
In the past, even if life was not going well, as long as people could survive, not many people would believe such outrageous rumors.
But in the midst of war, these refugees were not very welcome anywhere.
Young men might have the opportunity to join a lord's army or a gang, but most others don't have that opportunity.
Many people gathered in the direction of the rumors with the mentality of giving it a try.
There were also traces of other local lords fanning the flames. After all, regardless of whether the rumors were true or not, they could get rid of some trouble.
Even though Dylan returned to Dumb Wind Town in less than a month, he did so alone.
For normal civilians, if they bring their families with them, the speed will be more than twice as slow.
Many people died on the way for various reasons.
The refugees, holding onto that elusive hope, finally arrived at the Mute Wind Town and discovered that - this time, the legend turned out to be true!
There are so many mushrooms here!
Not only can we not finish eating it, we can even export some to surrounding cities!
Mushrooms can be grown simply by exposing them to the sun, their growth cycle is short, and there are no pests!
One crop after another, seemingly unaffected by the season. Recently, with the passing of autumn, the temperature has gradually dropped, but the mushroom yield has increased as the planting methods have been figured out, and it has grown more and better!
When the refugees came, they had a bowl of mushroom soup to drink. Although the taste was monotonous, they didn’t have to worry about starving to death.
If you sign up to grow mushrooms and are selected, you will also be given many other supplies.
Faced with the influx of refugees, Far's biggest headache is no longer how to feed everyone, but how to manage this explosive population growth!
Divide residential areas, organize the cultivation of new mushroom fields, assign jobs, mediate endless disputes...
The population of Mutewind Town had already far exceeded the limits of an ordinary town and was inexorably expanding towards the size of a small city. Farr was aware of this, but a city's operation required more than just people.
The surging population has brought about countless urgent problems that need to be solved, such as public security, sanitation, and resource allocation. The infrastructure and management capabilities are completely unable to keep up with the pace of development, which is the root cause of his anxiety.
…
All in all, Lin Jun's current expansion and development can be described as smooth sailing.
Relying on the magic power that is continuously collected and gathered from the vast fungal carpet, this upgrade is indeed a natural result.
It would be better to say that he had accumulated such a huge fortune, but had only just reached level 60. The difficulty of his upgrade was already quite tough!
Like every major breakthrough, a familiar "+" sign quietly appeared at the end of the skill bar on the status panel.
The long-awaited talent skill extraction!
Please, no more juicy stuff!
It’s a pity that there is no such thing as a goddess of luck in this world, otherwise Lin Jun would have to kowtow to her twice!
Optional skills:
Spiritual guidance (control of hallucinogenic effects)
Resonance (some skills can be stacked and amplified)
Negative energy collection (converting various negative energies into magic and experience)]
Emmmm……
Spiritual guidance seems to be a supporting skill for hallucinogenic spores!
Is it the feeling of making others see the illusion that you want them to see?
Is it the kind that can make others see black crows all over the sky?
What kind of degraded version of the Sharingan... I don't know if it can be considered a mental skill.
I feel like it could be useful, but I can't figure out how to use it.
The first use that came to mind was to scare Norris...
Let’s put that aside for now and look at the second one, resonance.
If the skills are stacked, Lin Jun can directly let several Puji release [Infrasonic Attack] together to achieve a stacking effect. So what is so special about this [Resonance]?
Just like the previous one, the skill description was too simple, making Lin Jun a little unsure.
As for the third one, it is simple and easy to understand, but what does this "negative energy" include?
Maybe curses are a form of negative energy?
Apart from this, Lin Jun couldn't think of anything else.
It seems that this skill is really unnecessary.
There is as much sunlight as you want on the surface of the earth. There is no need to covet the negative energy provided by a scarecrow abyss.
Maybe, with this skill, I can eat up all the curses and purify the scarecrow abyss?
But this is meaningless to Lin Jun...
It seems that the choice is still between the first two.
However, Lin Jun did not rush to make a choice, but temporarily closed the panel.
When he reached level 50, Lin Jun was still a lone mushroom, and faced with unknown skills, he could only choose the one he liked.
It’s different now!
——
Aidin's fingers slid across the rough pages of paper. Most of the documents piled up in front of him recorded the friction and disputes that had arisen between refugees, or between refugees and the original residents of the town.
As an important member of the current branch, Far was not polite to Aidin and decisively threw a lot of things to him to deal with.
This is both a responsibility and an implicit power, but Aidin hasn't used this power to profit himself, or rather, hasn't yet...
Aidin, who was buried in a report on a mushroom field land dispute, suddenly stopped moving.
After a few seconds, he began to flip through the papers again, but the movement of his fingertips was accompanied by a barely noticeable absent-mindedness.
Aidin's attention was focused on the fungus network. The boss assigned him a new task after a long absence.
"Check three skills..."
The Adventurer's Guild naturally contains detailed records of various skills, but not everyone has access to them.
Fortunately, Aidin's current identity just happens to have this authority.
At the same time, the duke's daughter, who had been lingering in the dungeon for days, refusing to leave, forcing the guild to send people down every two days to make sure she was alright, also waved her hand and said, "No problem! Leave it to me!"
