Chapter 266 265. Only ordinary heroes make choices
Looking up a few skills was something Aidin thought was a simple matter, but the situation turned out to be unexpectedly complicated.
The information at the Yafeng Town branch was already limited, and a large part of it was destroyed in the previous demonic tide.
There was no other choice, so Aidin could only ask Farr for an opportunity to access the headquarters' information.
Checking the data itself is not a problem, the main thing is that it requires the use of communication crystals, which consumes a lot of energy.
Fortunately, Far approved it directly and didn't even ask Aidin why he wanted to check. The distance between the two was maintained quite well, which is why Aidin likes to work with Far.
That afternoon, Lin Jun received information from Aidin:
Spiritual Guidance
One of the innate skills of the extinct monster "Dream Flower".
The flower grows on Dream Island in the Western Islands, which is why the island is named after it.
Anyone who goes onto the island without taking protective measures will be lured into a paradise by its deadly pollen, sinking into false happiness until death, and eventually turning into flower fertilizer.
The island was engulfed by fog 20 years ago, and the dream flowers are extinct.
【resonance】
The extinct monster "Long-sounding Bee" may have it, but it became extinct so long ago that its specific effects and mechanisms are impossible to verify, and the records are vague.
[Negative Energy Collection]
This skill is confirmed to exist, and is possessed by a specific high-level scarecrow in the "Forgotten Mansion" area at the bottom of the Scarecrow Abyss.
The second is the soul moss that grows deep in the "Tomb of the Ancestors", a semi-abandoned ancient underground city within the empire.
…
Lin Jun was quite satisfied with the report in front of him.
It was worth it that I chose Aidin after careful selection. His efficiency is really high!
Fan Puji next door was still foolishly sending someone home to ask, but Aidin had already handed in the paper.
In addition to his previous contribution in maintaining stable communications at the temporary camp, Lin Jun planned to spend some money and give him a small S-level magic crystal to play with.
It’s good to have people under you!
Backed by the vast knowledge base of mankind, it is extremely convenient!
Regarding [Negative Energy Collection], since the source was already clear, Lin Jun gave up the idea of using his precious opportunity to extract it, and turned back to find a way to get into the depths of the Scarecrow Abyss to see.
If you really can't get down, you can also consider issuing a task for adventurers to find it.
If all else fails, I can consider buying some Soul-Dead Moss from the demons!
The effect of [Spirit Guidance] seems to be similar to what I expected. Although it is very interesting, I always feel that it does not help much in combat.
After all, the prerequisite for using this skill is to induce hallucination first, and I have already hallucinated the enemy, so why should I bother to weave an illusion?
Maybe it would be useful when interrogating for information?
Unfortunately, Puji has no enemies now, so there is no need to torture him.
Lao Di might like this skill very much...
The only thing that didn't have much information was [Resonance]. The information in the guild wasn't even as much as the introduction I saw on the panel.
By process of elimination, Lin Jun tends to choose this one.
But Lin Jun still held back. Different channels might lead to different results.
…
A full two days.
These two days, Lin Jun has been basically playing the dungeon "team adventure game" with the elves.
The elves' return journey was not smooth.
It wasn't that she encountered any danger. Ellaven was obviously quite familiar with the Shenmu Dungeon. Occasionally, she would detect a diamond-level monster from afar, and before she could give any warning, Ellaven would have already taken a detour.
It’s just that the elf was unlucky, as he happened to catch up with the time when the “migrating tree” was about to move.
An entire huge forest moved. No matter how powerful each tree was, its terrifying size and dense number could crush anything that blocked its way.
Even local elves have to stop and wait for them to move away.
So for the past two days, Ellawen had watched as that silly bird, Feifei, constantly provoked Puji, only to be caught and swallowed by Puji in various ways, then pleaded miserably for help from within Puji's stomach...
What’s more amazing is that this is the first time she knows that Puji, like flowers and plants, needs to bask in the sun!
But you still need to drink water after sun exposure.
These were things she didn’t know before, and she gained a lot!
…
Two days later, the information from Fenpuji finally arrived.
The result made Lin Jun a little disappointed.
It was identical to the one Aidin had gotten, not a single word different; it was obvious that both came from the same database.
Lin Jun even had reason to suspect that this was the information that the Duke's Mansion had directly requested from the guild after receiving the request.
However, we can't say anything about Fan Puji just because of this.
Lin Jun treated Aidin impartially, rewarding and punishing as appropriate, and they had a good relationship between superiors and subordinates in a fair and impartial manner.
It’s just that Aidin has been doing a good job all along, so for now there will be rewards but no punishment.
Unlike Fen Puji, she has no other needs for Puji except psychological ones.
So Lin Jun has to be coaxed.
And she didn't mess up the matter, she just failed to dig out more information as Lin Jun expected.
Lin Jun praised Inanna a little in the fungus network, and asked the knight Puji to rub her head with his tentacles, which made Inanna happy.
After finishing this, Lin Jun was about to open the panel to make the final choice when Inanna suddenly said, "Boss, are you looking for these things?"
"Um... almost. What's wrong?"
"Well, I might actually have a sweet dream flower at home..."
"Huh?" Lin Jun perked up instantly. "Isn't it extinct?"
"They're not alive! They're sealed away as potion ingredients," Inanna explained. "When I was a child, my mother needed to add this to the potion to fall asleep. After she passed away, the remaining dream flowers were sealed in the warehouse. I don't know if they're still there... Boss, do you want them?"
Inanna looked at the knight in her arms eagerly, as if she would be disappointed if Lin Jun said "no need".
Of course Lin Jun will not let Fan Puji down!
"Yes! Of course I do! Pinky, you're awesome!"
There are things that have been extinct for 20 years!
As expected of the Duke's daughter! As expected of the Duke's family!
The knight rubbed Inanna's head angrily, this time using all six tentacles at the same time, with three times the enthusiasm as before.
"Hehehe!" Inanna gradually lost herself in the rubbing of the mycelial tentacles and the boss's praises.
…
What else is there to say?
Only ordinary heroes make choices, but I, the mushroom master, want them all!
The incident with Fan Puji reminded Lin Jun that he could find some skills that suit him in a targeted manner, and then see if he could buy them ready-made on the market.
Although you can’t directly get a high level item like finding its origin, it is still very convenient to unlock a skill encyclopedia!
I'll leave this matter to Aidin later, after I give him the S-level magic crystal.
Now...
Lin Jun decisively opened the panel!
