Chapter 85 84. Events Fermentation
"Here, your X."
"Luckily I got a XXXX snake, if I hadn't XXXX mushrooms I'd be XXX."
"Cut XXXX into shreds, XXX is very good."
A mushroom is carrying out its daily voyeuristic activities.
A few days ago, 22 humans were killed in the swamp at once, plus what I learned from Dylan.
[Human Common Language LV5]
Lin Jun always felt that the words taught to you by this skill upgrade were not in order of whether they were frequently used or not, but were random.
In other words, it is possible that you have reached level 9 in Common Language but still do not know the word "go".
It's quite a pitfall.
Fortunately, the self-study part is not affected.
Now that Dylan has met his "good senior", the volume of daily conversations has skyrocketed, which has benefited Lin Jun a lot.
It is foreseeable that language will no longer be a shortcoming soon.
Also due to the impact of the large number of casualties suffered by humans last time, the number of adventurers coming down to the fifth floor has decreased significantly recently.
Facing the high-level adventurers who might appear at any time, Lin Jun made a lot of preparations.
In addition to the conventional increase in the number of cannon mushrooms and whip mushrooms, two new defensive types of Puji have also been developed.
On the fifth-floor dome, a special self-destructive Puji has been bred.
Puji twisted his body and kicked his short legs, successfully breaking away from the fungal mat and starting to fall freely.
Then it... spread its wings!
To be more precise, it's a flying squirrel suit that looks like wings.
It was too difficult for Puji to fly. He had to use a skeleton to make a prototype of the wings, and then he had to find a way to get feathers, plus the power to flap the wings, and...
Although it can't fly, it is relatively easy to add "wings" for gliding.
Dive right into the enemy's face and explode!
However, the reality is somewhat different from expectations.
Puji tried to twist his body in the air but couldn't find his balance.
Finally, in the chaos, he used [Dive LV3] and crashed into the cap of a mushroom tree, causing it to explode...
Lin Jun did not control the entire process. After all, he certainly did not have the time to control each one in actual combat.
But now it seems that Puji's own intelligence is not enough to complete this attack from the sky.
Come to think of it, there is definitely no flying instinct in Puji's body.
What a pity! Lin Jun thought that he could let countless self-explosive puffs swarm towards the invaders. How powerful that would be...
Fortunately, the second type of Puji does not have such high requirements.
[Self-destruction LV5] + [Mimicry LV4] + [Assault Ejection LV5]
The reason for adding mimicry is that these mushrooms are usually buried in the soil, leaving only the color-changed mushroom cap on the surface.
There will also be a layer of fungal mat on top, which is impossible to see.
But if you step on it, it will explode!
Even if they don't step on it, once they enter the ambush area, they can all be ejected from the soil and self-destruct.
And because only three skills are needed, the amount of magic power consumed can be said to be quite low.
Lin Jun plans to lay more.
There is also something that can only be considered a hobby.
A Puji was spinning in place, and its four hyphae tentacles formed a circle.
【Blade Storm LV1】
I don’t know which human it fell from.
It has no practical value at the moment, but it still looks very impressive when it spins!
The last and most important arrangement is the escape route.
At the bottom of the swamp, in Lin Jun’s real room.
Countless webs have been woven with mycelium, extending all the way to the five steps.
Once you reach the edge of the swamp, you will be connected to a dug underground passage.
Make sure that if the army is destroyed and Xiao Hei is defeated, the knight can use a rolling charge to escape to any direction with his main body.
As for fighting desperately?
That's impossible.
All the way from the deep area to the fifth floor, I have fought for everything I should have fought for in this life.
It is now very difficult for humans to completely eliminate the first five layers of the fungal mat. As long as they don't die, even if they fail temporarily, they can make a comeback quickly.
This is just a contingency plan for the worst case scenario. In fact, Lin Jun has not yet seen any existence that can threaten himself and Xiao Hei's full strength.
Even the diamond-level adventurer team that killed the Fire Demon in the deep area was no match for it.
Of course, it would be great if this incident could be made into a minor one, and humans could just pretend that nothing had happened! —
The aroma of beer lingered in the hall of the Jinyangmu Tavern. Since the closure of the Lanliu Tavern, the business here has almost doubled.
"This butter oyster is really delicious, Vera, you should have some too!"
The trio, who had made money on the last trip, finally decided to spend more on food and lodging.
Fei Ling was so happy while eating that she ended up suffering from a tragedy - food got stuck in her teeth.
Seeing this, Vera lowered her head and didn't look at Feiling's embarrassing look as she fixed her teeth.
After the plunderer knocked out one of Feiling's teeth, due to financial reasons, it was left unrepaired.
Vera silently made up her mind that after going to the dungeon again, she would go back to the city and find a professional master to help Feiling fill her teeth.
Bang--
The door of the Jinyangmu Tavern was suddenly pushed open, and everyone's attention was drawn to it. The owner looked at the wooden door that was smashed against the wall, his eyes full of displeasure.
The stumbling figure cast a long shadow under the oil lamp.
“Begorn!” His roar was like scraping against the rocks. “Begorn’s Ironheart Squadron is completely wiped out!”
Just like dropping a red-hot iron ball into a cup of water, the Jinyangmu Tavern suddenly exploded.
"Bullshit!" A cat adventurer smashed the wooden wine glass in his hand, and the scar on his face was twisted in excitement. "That was a gold-level team! They brought more than a dozen silver-level ones, and you told me they were all wiped out?"
As soon as this was said, someone immediately agreed: "Yes, an adventure group of more than 20 people is not going to the bottom, how could they all be wiped out?"
The messenger wanted to say something, but he was breathing heavily, so the drinker next to him offered him a glass of beer.
The man didn't hesitate either. He tilted his head back and poured it all down in one breath. It was unclear whether he drank more or leaked more.
After moistening his throat, he immediately told the rest of the information:
"An adventurer exchanged equipment of a member of Gon's team with a mushroom merchant on the fifth floor, and was recognized when he took it to the trading field to sell.
There are a lot of people gathered there now, if you don’t believe me go and see for yourself!”
After hearing this, most people believed it at once, and the few who didn't believe it stood up and rushed out, intending to see it with their own eyes.
All other topics in the tavern disappeared at this moment, and everyone was discussing Team Gon and their target, the Big Black Mushroom.
The consumption in Jinyangmu Tavern is not low, and those who can be regular customers here generally reach the silver level or above.
The activity range of the big black mushroom is exactly the fifth and sixth floors.
They can't help but pay attention.
After all, Begon's golden team was wiped out, which meant that 99% of the adventurers would die if they faced the big black mushroom.
Of course, some people think that he died because Begon and the others took the initiative to challenge him.
According to these people, they also encountered large black mushrooms and left safely after dropping a few glass bottles.
There has long been a saying that giant black mushrooms like shiny things, and people still believe it to a certain extent.
But after all, it concerns your own life, so you can never be too cautious.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Begon and his men would be completely wiped out."
Fei Ling gulped down several mouthfuls of wine before she suppressed the fear in her heart.
"Yeah, I never thought that there would be four gold-level people who would be wiped out on the fifth floor..."
Vera's face also looked bad, and Feiyin, who was silent beside her, looked even paler.
If we were to say who was the most shocked among those present, it would definitely be the trio. They were really close to being included in the annihilation list!
At this moment, all the adventurers, including Vera, thought of the Adventurer's Guild, which had a less than reliable reputation recently.
The next chapter will be posted at 9 o'clock.
