Chapter 93 90. Someone stole the Internet (ask for the first order)
Six steps.
With the infusion of magic power, mycelium grew out from the stairs little by little.
A green slime was clinging to the wall, along the edge of the exit, eating the growing mycelium.
Wave--
A few mushroom cannons hit the target, and a large amount of slime was blown out and scattered all over the ground.
But the green slime, which had lost a lot of body fluids and shrunk two sizes, was still clinging to the wall, intending to continue eating the mycelium.
The Pujis had to fire two more rounds of mushroom cannons before the core of the slime was destroyed.
However, after a while, new slimes appeared...
Some slimes were very small and could be killed by a mushroom cannon, but the mycelium growing around them was also blasted into pieces by their own attack.
What is certain is that the botanical garden environment on the sixth floor is indeed very suitable for slimes to survive, and their numbers are much greater than on the previous floors.
There are also some mutant species, such as the multi-core slime formed by the fusion of multiple slimes.
After Puji attacked it, it exploded into individual slimes on the ground, and then other slimes pounced on it from all directions, wrapping Puji in the middle. When other Pujis around it rescued it, it had already been half digested.
Although the slime caused some damage, it was just a waste of some magic power for Lin Jun, and the spread of mycelium on the stone wall continued steadily.
When it spreads to the dome, just like the previous few floors, eat all the firefly grass on it and replace them with fluorescent mushrooms.
What bothered Lin Jun the most was the ground.
Unlike the previous floors, the land division on the sixth floor of the botanical garden is finer and more crowded.
A flower demon will define an area of about ten meters around itself as its territory. Other demons that break in or grow in will either be killed or driven away by it.
The false flower vine will strangle other creatures attracted by the honey fragrance, and any passing Puji will also be killed.
The demon orchid will emit an enchanting blue light to the surrounding creatures, luring prey into its trap. This poses no threat to Puji, as Puji is controlled by Lin Jun and is not susceptible to the enchantment.
In short, various plant-type monsters and a small number of animal-type monsters divided the sixth layer into many small territories.
Unless Lin Jun adopts an extermination-style sweep like the one on the fifth floor, it will be difficult for the Pujis to advance very far on the ground.
Without the protection of Puji on the ground, the mycelium far away from the stairs will become a free lunch for the slime.
The reason why the fifth level carried out the extermination operation was because Lin Jun needed a stable base, and for other levels, what he needed was the skills of the monsters in the ecosystem, not the level itself.
For the next four layers, Lin Jun chose to occupy the space not needed by local creatures, and then attacked slimes to complete the fungal coverage.
And six floors of native plants…there’s no unwanted space on the ground level.
Even if Lin Jun was willing to destroy part of the ecology and forcibly open a safe passage in the botanical garden, it is conceivable that he would have to face an endless tug-of-war with local plants in the future in order to maintain the safe passage.
It's a thankless task, and this is not what Lin Jun wants.
Lin Jun has thought of some solutions to this problem.
If the ground can't accommodate Puji, then let Puji crawl along the stone wall along with the mycelium!
There are three optional skills.
【Suction cup LV3】
Obtained from a small lizard during the Demon Tide, it can be used to attach to walls.
However, since Puji has no hands, in order to move, it may still have to combine the suction cup with the mycelium tentacles.
Honestly, just imagining the scene of Puji climbing on the wall with its tentacles made Lin Jun feel a little weird.
The other type is just like these green slimes.
[Digestive Mucus LV6]
The way these green slimes climb walls is essentially no different from snails.
Their mucus acts as a digestive fluid and also helps them stick their bodies to the wall.
Logically speaking, if Puji adds [Corrosion Resistance], he should be able to use this to climb walls.
But the problem is that the Pujis not only need to climb the wall, but also have to attack the slimes on the wall.
The recoil of the mushroom cannon is probably not enough to be stabilized by the stickiness of the mucus alone, and it will fall off the rock wall after one shot.
As for the last one.
【Rock Food LV4】
Obtained from the extinct rock lizard on the fifth floor, it eats the surrounding stones and then covers its body with a layer of rock armor.
If there is no foothold on the rock wall, just create your own!
Puji is produced directly on the rock wall. After it is born, it starts to eat the rocks under it on the spot, and then merges the rock armor with the rock wall, and finally turns into something like a fixed turret.
This thing is beautiful and practical, but its disadvantage is also obvious - low cost performance.
With the same consumption, Puji who can move around will definitely be more useful.
Fortunately, I currently have a solar-powered magic machine, so I don’t lack magic power for the time being.
If you are not satisfied with the first two options, choose this as a backup.
…
While Lin Jun was still shaping the newly designed shape of Puji, a large black mushroom came down from the fifth floor to the sixth floor.
"Xiao Hei? What are we going to play today? Fighting turtles on the seventh floor?"
"Hit the green man!"
"Xiao Hei, that's a tree man. You can't hit a green man randomly, don't you know that?"
"Um!"
Oh my god!
Seeing that she agreed so quickly, Lin Jun knew that she definitely didn't understand!
Since Xiao Hei couldn't understand, Lin Jun would explain it to her again and again.
Over time, this guy actually learned to pretend to understand and just answered with "hmm hmm" perfunctorily.
I'm really worried about it!
But speaking of which, Lin Jun also spread spores on the tree man's side last time, wanting to see if mushrooms could occupy the ecological niche of moss.
Now that Xiao Hei is leading the way, I might as well go and take a look.
Lin Jun skillfully separated four Pujis to follow Xiao Hei, and most of his consciousness was once again immersed in pinching Puji.
This is a delicate job. If you don't shape the corresponding form well, it will be useless even if you install the skills.
However, he couldn't immerse himself in it for too long as a strange voice from the fungus net interrupted Lin Jun.
"Mushroom, Master, you appear again!"
???
I looked for the source of the signal, it was... the Dryad Forest?
ah?
The Pujis followed Xiao Hei and violently crossed several plant-type monster territories and reached the entrance to the woods.
Only then did Lin Jun see the owner of the signal—a tree demon with mushrooms growing on its body!
It looked familiar, and I tried hard to recall. This tree demon seemed to be the one whose limbs were removed by Xiao Hei?
Now it seems to have grown back!
The recovery ability of plant monsters is really amazing.
No, the point is wrong...
These tree demons turned out to be highly intelligent! ?
Look at what he said before, at least it’s more fluent than Xiao Hei!
Speaking of Xiao Hei, this guy has already rolled up his arms and is ready to start fighting.
"Xiao Hei, wait a minute! Can we stop playing for a while?"
"Gotta beat the green man!"
As expected, he is a green man!
But now is not the time to argue with her.
Decisively use the most effective killer weapon to deal with Xiao Hei recently!
"Be obedient, and I'll give you the glass beads later!"
Sure enough, when Xiao Hei heard about the glass beads, he instantly became a good boy.
He ran to the side and started pulling up tree roots from the ground for fun.
At the same time, a Puji from the fifth floor ran to Xiao Hei's mushroom house and took out two complete glass beads from a room full of glass shards, and gave them to Xiao Hei later.
After dealing with the little brat, Lin Jun finally had time to take care of the tree demon who had been left aside and had gone through another life-and-death situation.
“That… um…”
Pull open the panel, there is no name, confirmed to be a barbarian.
"Mr. Dryad, what can I do for you by connecting to my LAN?"
Thanks to the leader of "Green Lantern Drunk World"
