Chapter 587, Section 586: Choice
[Information Spore LV1 (Transmits information to flesh-and-blood organisms through spores, and can guide and suggest information to organisms with low intelligence within a certain range)]
This skill can transmit information, but Lin Jun doubts how much information can be transmitted, and it may be one-way, since it is transmitted through spores.
At the very least, it's not as convenient for communication as the fungal network. Even if you're not parasitized by Lin Jun's mycelium, there are plenty of ways to communicate with Lin Jun.
The later effect is quite interesting; it can affect low-intelligence creatures within a certain area. In other words, it affects ordinary monsters that act on instinct.
If this option appeared at level 50, Lin Jun would definitely choose it without hesitation.
Back then, Lin Jun was still struggling in the dungeon, living a life of dealing with monsters and adventurers.
With it, you can control monsters on a large scale and use them for your own purposes, which greatly increases your safety.
It's a pity that I'm only arriving now.
Now his territory is stable, with the underground city and fungus fortress as his base, and he has a large army of Puji soldiers under his command, with no shortage of mid-level and low-level combat power.
Adding more monsters as subordinates, especially the kind of fighters that can only be controlled within the spore's range, seems somewhat redundant.
Of course, if there really is an ancient magical beast with super strength but not very bright brain lurking in some corner of the world, then this skill would be worth it.
Unfortunately, he hasn't heard of such a thing yet.
The focus shifted to the second skill, and Lin Jun's spirits lifted!
The second row actually has a skill with no level requirement!
Perhaps I absorbed too many skills before, which has made my skill pool shallower?
But no matter what, getting a skill without level requirements is like winning the lottery.
However……
[Absolutely Delicious]
Is this introduction for real?
Literally speaking, this probably represents the pinnacle of "deliciousness," reaching an extreme level similar to that of "Sword of the Ultimate."
Lin Jun even suspected that this was an extremely rare skill that had never appeared in history.
[The Ultimate Sword] There have been a few in history, and there are still some masters in the world who have mastered the swordsmanship to the highest level. Although the hope of touching the "ultimate" level is slim, the possibility still exists.
Is it absolutely delicious?
I've never even heard of it.
Not to mention, these days, apart from Lin Jun's own Delicious Mushrooms, those with a [Deliciousness] rating of LV4 are extremely rare on the market.
As for the higher LV5 and LV6, before the Delicious Mushroom came out, only a few might be stored in the warehouses of noble families like Inanna, to save for important occasions.
As for higher?
No!
If it doesn't even reach the level of "Delicious LV10", then there's no need to mention "Exquisite Flavor", which is supposedly a higher level than "Delicious".
However, Lin Jun already has the world's best-tasting mushrooms, so is it meaningful for her to make them even better?
I finally leveled up and won the grand prize—a skill with no level requirement! But it's so useless...
You can't expect those experts to beg to serve you just to taste it again after they've tried it once, can you?
Scroll to the last option.
【Soul Touch LV1 (Can physically touch other souls)】
soul?
Lin Jun's strength has always been her soul size, so she immediately perked up when she saw the word.
Lin Jun actually touches the soul every day.
[Greed] Decomposing a corpse is essentially the process of chewing on the outer shell of the soul.
However, [Greed] can only decompose corpses and has no effect on living people.
Furthermore, Lin Jun had no say in the entire decomposition process at the soul level.
In addition, he also experienced more direct spiritual contact.
The most representative example is the bizarre dream that Fei Xi created back then.
With the help of the sorcerer's notes, Lin Jun also mastered the method of constructing this ritual, but found that the conditions for holding this ritual were quite harsh.
Rare materials are no longer a problem for him; the real key lies in the medium!
There must be a transaction that has a strong physical or mental connection with the target, such as a blood oath, a high-ranking enslavement contract, or one of the twins who are in spiritual harmony.
The medium Fei Xi used at the time was a tattered blood oath. He had found it in his former master's secret storage room after killing him.
It was through this contract that Yi Meng was able to anchor itself and invade Inanna's dream.
Lin Jun had also seen that bloodline oath. It had been used twice as a medium in the dream ritual, and the bloodline oath itself was already broken and ineffective.
As for the contents of the contract, they were similar to ordinary slave contracts, but one additional clause left a deep impression on him:
"It is forbidden to control the master in any direct or indirect way."
Normally, contracts don't specifically prohibit slaves from controlling their masters. The other clauses usually already restrict them, leaving no room for retaliation, so there's no need to reiterate it like this.
Inanna's mother... seems to be quite something too.
Unfortunately, Fei Xi remained tight-lipped about his past.
Whether it's about that mother, about Alama, or about his past of murdering his master.
Every time Lin Jun tried to probe indirectly, he showed no intention of satisfying her curiosity.
Of course, Lin Jun couldn't just give up like that.
Since there are no mental guidance skills here, Lin Jun has recently been learning dream construction in the mental realm, and will try to find the answer in Xiao Xi's dream.
Dreams are indeed genuine, soul-level contact.
More common forms of magic, such as the allure of succubi, mental suggestion in spiritual magic, and dream construction, are actually clashes of mental power rather than genuine contact between souls.
Therefore, the skill [Touch of Souls] seems quite unique.
However, the description only says that you can touch it. Can this touch turn into an attack or a restraint?
If it's just a simple encounter that produces a similar effect to verbal communication, then its practical value is probably quite limited.
[Information Spore LV1]
【Exquisite Flavor】
【Touch of the Soul LV1】
Surprisingly, the first thing to be eliminated was the precious skill without level!
[Information Spore] can steadily improve tactical flexibility in defensive battles, but currently, its upper limit is not high, and it lacks the potential to turn the tide of battle.
The description of 【Touch of the Soul】is limited, its practicality is unknown, and there is an element of gambling involved.
After a moment's deliberation, Lin Jun made her decision.
[Gained Skill: Soul Touch LV1]
The moment the thought was made up, a poop, used for testing, emerged from the fungal carpet.
To Lin Jun's slight surprise, Puji, who possessed the skill, did not master the use of the skill on its own as usual, but Lin Jun had to operate it herself to use it.
Is it because it's related to the soul?
In the realm of [Inspiration], a change quietly takes place. Suddenly, a soft tentacle tip begins to emanate a bluish glow, as if one's own soul has been condensed within that tentacle!
So... what should we touch now?
"Norris, no need to train the underwater troopers today. Come to the Mushroom Garden, I've got something good for you!"
