Chapter 96 93. Mycelium Network Upgrade
The battle on the sixth floor is still progressing slowly. Although we have not yet gained control of the sixth floor, we have begun to gain some results.
[Seven Sins of Greed Trigger]
[Plundering Skill: Neurotoxin LV3→LV4]
[Plundering Skill: Digest Mucus LV6→LV7]
[Plundering skills: Physical resistance LV5→LV6]
…
I have to say that the slime skills on this level are quite useful.
Neurotoxin is a liquid version of hallucinogenic spores. It has a stronger effect at the same level, but is relatively less convenient to use.
According to Lin Jun's idea, maybe it can be used together with mimicry, so that when the enemy passes by, he can suddenly squeeze the opponent's face?
Digestive mucus is a kind of corrosive damage, so it is good for dealing with garbage.
Lin Jun would throw skeletons that could not be decomposed by mycelium and some equipment that was completely damaged and had lost its value into the mucus for decomposition.
Not to mention physical resistance, although it is probably not useful for the most ordinary Puji.
After all, his health is so low that he will die instantly even if it is reduced.
But it’s different for the elite Puji.
Since Lin Jun has had more magic power recently, it is time to get out a group of elite soldiers who are not cannon fodder.
However, this plan is temporarily scheduled to be put after the sixth floor is conquered. Conquering the sixth floor is also a large project that consumes magic power like water. Even with Lin Jun's current magic power production, it is just about breaking even.
In addition to these skills that rely on greed to upgrade, another skill that depends entirely on Lin Jun’s own efforts and sweat has finally been improved!
[Skill Upgrade: Mycelium Network LV6→LV7]
It must be said that there is really no shortcut to improving the mycelium network, which is one of Lin Jun’s core skills. It all depends on hard work.
It’s been such a long time since I left the deep area, and I’ve finally been promoted to the next level!
What surprised Lin Jun was that after the skill was upgraded, there was an extra line in the description of the skill panel: it can create transit nodes in the mycelium network.
It looks like a derivative function, but what is a transit node?
If you don’t understand, try it!
Lin Jun randomly selected four Pujis that were mining, and based on his intuition, made one of them a transit node.
The Pujis are still working, knocking on the stones with their shelled mushroom caps, but the rhythm of these four Pujis... is synchronized?
The other three Pujis all synchronized their movements with the Puji that became the transit point.
If that Puji takes a step forward, the other Pujis will also take a step forward, even if there is a wall in front of them.
The one that Puji knocked on the stone, and also knocked on the others, even though there was nothing in front of it.
Why does it feel like a synchronizer?
Totally useless.
Lin Jun thought about it and woke up Xiao Hei, who was sleeping with the glass bead in his arms.
Xiao Hei was pulled out of the mushroom house by Puji's tentacles, with his shoulder hunched, yawning and rubbing his eyes, looking listless.
Puji brought her to a small open space in the mushroom forest, where a large number of Pujis were standing.
Lin Jun turned Xiao Hei into a transit point in the fungus net and rowed a Puji under her.
The effect is immediate.
Puji imitated Xiao Hei, stretched out his hyphae tentacles in front of him, and rubbed his non-existent eyes.
It’s still a synchronizer. This is not the result Lin Jun wants.
"Xiao Hei, don't be confused, feel what's different about yourself?"
"different?"
Hearing Lin Jun's voice, Xiao Hei managed to perk up a little.
She turned her head and found the Puji that was imitating her.
"What's this?"
Xiao Hei took two steps forward and wanted to pick up Puji.
However, Puji followed her lead and took two steps forward.
…
Xiao Hei started to chase, and Puji started to run, and they moved forward in sync, one in front and one behind.
In the end, Xiao Hei relied on her long legs to catch up with Puji, hugged her in her arms, and began to study this little thing that had some special connection with her.
Lin Jun watched her and studied her for a long time, and Puji was simply imitating Xiao Hei's movements.
Just when Lin Jun thought this was really a synchronizer, Xiao Hei seemed to have found the trick!
Xiao Hei's hands were still holding Puji, but Puji's four hyphae tentacles stretched out and rolled together to form a twist.
This is?
Xiao Hei then put Puji down. After Puji landed, he started to swing the twisted dough sticks that had not been undone yet and ran around Xiao Hei.
Lin Jun was very sure that he did not give such an order.
"Xiao Hei, are you the one commanding this Pooji now?"
“It seems so!”
Xiao Hei's eyes lit up, sparkling with excitement of discovering a new toy.
Lin Jun finally determined the role of this derivative function.
To put it simply, the work of controlling Puji is subcontracted out, and the so-called transit node is like a team leader appointed by oneself.
However, this team leader needs to have a certain level of intelligence.
If an ordinary Puji is made the team leader, he will become a mere synchronizer.
It seems that this derivative ability should be quite suitable for Dylan.
Unfortunately, Dylan is not in the mushroom garden now, and the command of the scout cannot be given to Dylan.
The scout was already so far away, but Lin Jun was still able to control him thanks to the skill [Follower Control].
Once the control is transferred, [Dependent Control] will be severed.
And want to reconnect after being disconnected?
Sorry, the target is out of server range, please try again later...
By then, Dylan will really have to rely on himself.
While Lin Jun was thinking about how to use her skills, Xiao Hei was already controlling the Puji to run into her mouth.
Xiao Hei sat there motionless, and Puji took the initiative to turn around and feed Xiao Hei the mushroom cap.
He had only eaten one-third of the meal when Puji fell to the ground with a "bang" - dead.
Xiao Hei suddenly realized that he had lost his remote control toy and became depressed.
What the hell is going on? How can you be so depressed while having fun?
Lin Jun pulled two more Pujis under Xiao Hei's command. Feeling the change in connection, Xiao Hei's attention was immediately drawn to the new Pujis.
The dead one on the ground was forgotten at the speed of light.
However, this is not the end. Lin Jun continues to assign more command rights of Puji to Xiao Hei.
4...8...15...
In the end, the control of all 21 Pujis on the scene was given to Xiao Hei.
Lin Jun wants to see the limit of transferring control?
However, before Lin Jun could test the limits of his authority to transfer, Xiao Hei's limits came out first.
After gaining control of a large number of Puji, Xiao Hei wanted to stand up, but his left foot stepped on his right foot and he fell directly on a Puji, crushing it, and then bounced on the ground like a fish that had come ashore.
As for the other Pujis, they were either running around and rolling on the ground, or just standing there motionless.
The whole scene was a mess.
The situation did not subside until Lin Jun regained full control.
Xiao Hei shook his head, and as soon as he recovered, he ran back to the mushroom house using all four limbs, dragging his tail and hiding.
It seems that the feeling just now was not very pleasant.
how so?
The ability to control Puji is related to intelligence. Xiao Hei is stupid and can't control much, which Lin Jun can understand.
But there are only about 20 of them!
Even if it's not easy to command, it should at least be able to be controlled simply.
How come I can’t even control my own hands and feet?
After thinking about it, maybe Xiao Hei is too special, after all, he is born with deficiencies.
It would be nice if a being with normal intelligence could try it.
At times like this, Lin Jun would especially miss the days when Dylan was by her side. That ordinary man was quite useful...
Speaking of which...what's the level of intelligence of the tree demon?
