Chapter 504, Section 503: Professionals
There's such a huge ruin underground in my own backyard?!
The main structure of this city, which has been sealed by time, remains intact, while the rest, like the scattered cavities they had previously excavated, is scattered among the surrounding rock strata.
Unearthing an ancient site should... be considered a good thing, right?
Lin Jun was also unsure.
After all, the rescued dwarf said that there was some ancient war puppet technology inside, which reminded Lin Jun of the two war puppets guarding the gate outside the core area of her own underground city.
As the exploration of the crystal monument neared its end, Lin Jun's control over the two battle puppets also increased significantly.
At least now we can set up friend-or-foe identification when they start up.
He also found a special method to change the magic crystals all over the battle puppet from purple to red.
Suspected berserk state.
The reason it is described as "suspected" is mainly because a safe method for testing the combat power of war puppets cannot be found.
Moreover, after the accidental trigger last time, even without doing anything, a slight crack was still found on the magic crystal after it returned to normal, so it obviously cannot be used carelessly.
The war puppets in the ruins are significantly different in appearance from the two in the dungeon, but the technology they contain still makes Mushroom look forward to them.
However, the ruins are not easy to explore; the biggest problem is that mad spirit.
Two Berserkers were pulled out of the abyss. One transformed into a Storm Elemental Lord on the spot, while the other fell into the Northern Territory and seems to have transformed into a Frost Elemental Lord.
The Storm Elemental Lord merely wreaked havoc along its path without lingering, yet it still caused elemental disorder along that path that lasted for nearly three months.
As for the one in the North, it probably hasn't moved an inch since it landed there.
According to the Yellow Book, the environment of this site is very close to being completely transformed.
Even if the elemental lord is eliminated by then, the elemental disorder in this area will not return to normal over time unless one is willing to find a large number of water mages and spend a lot of effort to gradually restore it.
In a corner of the ruins, in a newly established temporary camp, Louisa was arranging the rotation of her soldiers.
The sounds of battle outside never ceased.
Not long after Norris rescued the three missing persons, Louisa arrived with a Puji army and established the camp.
The Frost Spirits weren't too difficult to deal with. Even when other Frost Spirits that could fly and release ice crystals appeared later, they posed no threat to the Fungus Fortress's army. At most, they would only consume some of their resources.
However, its inability to be killed is still incredibly annoying.
Louisa also tried to trap the Frost Spirit with traps, but after being trapped for a period of time, the Frost Spirit would abandon its physical body, return to its original state where it could not be disturbed, and then find a place to start condensing its body again.
Don't waste your energy, you stupid troll.
The only thing that can truly solve the problem of elemental spirits is the environment.
[Either restore the elemental balance of this area, or drain the entire ruins of their magic; clearly, you can't do either.]
Louisa ignored the Yellow Book consultant's sarcastic remarks and instead directly applied to Lin Jun:
"Boss, this matter can be resolved as long as the Elemental Lord is dealt with."
"Please allow me to mobilize all the troops in Fungus Castle, enough to suppress these ever-regenerating Frost Spirits, and fight my way to the Elemental Lord to deal with them!"
Louisa pointed to the enormous spiral structure in the distance, the source of the elemental disorder.
Tolin and his group were lucky; they landed on the edge of the area, where only some of the weaker Frost Spirits had a chance to be rescued.
The current situation is that the Elemental Lord must be dealt with!
The drop in temperature did not seem to bring disaster to Fungus Castle; on the contrary, it helped the Northern Alliance absorb nearby tribes.
But despite the seemingly thriving state of Fungus Castle, the North has long since become a no-man's land.
Of the already limited number of wild monsters, over 90% froze to death or went extinct. Tribes that did not join the Fungus Fortress migrated to the northern border, and only by defeating other tribes that had also migrated there could they gain the right to survive.
The prosperity of the Fungus Castle is built on the foundation of Fungus Crescent Mushrooms, Puji Heating, and the entire population's [Cold Resistance LV10].
Moreover, the most critical issue is that the temperature drop has not stopped.
Although the speed has slowed considerably compared to the initial rate, the temperature is still slowly decreasing, and the ultimate limit remains unknown.
The pig's plan is easy to understand.
The strategy is to avoid pointless attrition warfare with these cold spirits, and instead launch a decisive attack to strike at their heart.
Having dealt with the elemental lord in time, we can now choose whether to leave it alone and let it recover naturally, or send mages down to actively manage it.
but……
Lin Jun recalled the Storm Elemental Lord from back then.
Although the creature he controlled was killed before it even saw what the Storm Elemental Lord looked like, he was still able to reconstruct its approximate strength based on information from various sources.
The character's stats on the stat sheet are in the seventies, but its actual combat performance far surpasses that of the ordinary dukes on either side.
Lin Jun wasn't sure if this Frost Elemental Lord was weaker or stronger, but if she compared it to the Storm Elemental Lord...
We can still win, but I estimate the losses will be substantial.
After defeating the Elemental Lord, the climate gradually warmed up.
Without obstacles, the Empire will naturally notice the changes in the North very soon.
Although Junbao's current strength should not be underestimated, if the Northern Alliance is regarded as a force in the continental landscape, it is clearly the weakest one.
Therefore, every bit of effort is precious, and we should avoid wasting it if possible.
It's time to get some pink...
...
The Duke of St. Clair's Palace.
The kingdom is devoting all its energy to rebuilding the army and constructing new defenses.
Alama was in full charge of the defensive fortifications, while the reorganization of the Puji Legion during recruit training was overseen by Warren, Inanna's former adjutant.
The war heroine Inanna herself had some free time and returned to the Duke's mansion.
However, Inanna herself had no desire for power, and now that she had two numbered Puji by her side, she naturally had no objections.
Number 10 is taciturn and, unless necessary, quietly hides in the Puji group, inconspicuously carrying out the task of protecting the fans.
But some mushrooms are still unhappy.
Number 4 was very unhappy.
Since being brutally beaten in a fit of rage last time, the reborn Number Four has reverted to being cannon fodder.
I've experienced its power...
Although they were constantly being beaten, they were indeed very strong...
The difference between that kind of power and the current cannon fodder body is too great.
More importantly, the Duke's mansion is so boring!
It would also be frequently borrowed by that stern-faced human butler, who would then use various magical instruments to harass it.
The impolite non-mushroom...
This kind of life is so dishonorable!
It began to miss the days of fighting the Black Demon...
Just then, the new decree of the mushroom master, like a ray of dawn, illuminated its gloomy mushroom life once again!
"yeah!"
Number Four excitedly pulled Number Ten out of the pile of poopy things, jumping and skipping, but the latter's way of being dragged along clearly showed its disdain for it.
at the same time.
With an "experience potion" stuffed in her mouth, Inanna asked Lin Jun from within the fungal web, "Boss, I inexplicably leveled up twice recently. Is it because of the water you fed me?"
"Shh! Don't tell anyone else, okay? If anyone asks, just make up an excuse! Good things are meant to be shared among family!"
"Boss, you're so kind!" Inanna squinted her eyes happily.
"By the way, Little Pink, there's something I need your help with in the dungeon, but it might be a bit dangerous..."
"I want to help! I want to help!" The girl eagerly raised her hand, letting the tentacles rub her head, letting out silly giggles that spread throughout the sun-drenched room.
Eric, who vaguely heard some noises, looked towards the young lady's room, his eyes filled with worry—the young lady's mushroom fetish was getting worse...
