【Super Mushroom System】
[Congratulations to the host for killing zombies x3, the system rewards strength attribute +3]
[The host's current strength has reached the upper limit of 99 points, and it cannot be increased!] 】
[Mission: Kill Zombies 96/100]
[Quest Item: None]
[Deadline: None]
[Reward: Chu Overlord Series Mushroom Carrying Ding Mushroom x1]
Abandoned factory buildings.
The cold wind came in and whirled and swirled.
White Kabu sat on a rusty pipe.
His cheeks were red from the cold.
After all, thermal underwear can't cover your face.
A few headless zombies at their feet, lying in the black flesh and blood.
After reaching 99 in the Strength stat, if you continue to kill zombies, you will not be able to increase it.
Moreover, other attributes have not been increased.
[Agility: 7 (Sure enough, it's a child)]
[Courage: 99 (human limit, worthy of admiration!) )】
[Wisdom: 66 (the best among people, worthy of admiration!) )】
It's still the same as before.
White Kabu sighed.
"The Carrying Ding Mushroom can help me break through the limit of 100 points.
"It seems that the task must be completed as soon as possible."
Holding an air cannon mushroom in his hand.
After all these days of use and research, he has figured it out.
The range of the mushroom is very limited!
The closer you are, the more powerful it becomes.
The air cannon has just been discharged, and it is the most powerful, about 198 points, and his strength attribute is multiplied by two.
The farther away you are, the less powerful it becomes.
Each air cannon shot is about zero when it reaches five meters away.
"The attribute that can be increased now is only strength.
"Is it that when the Corpse King comes, I will fight it hand-to-hand?"
This is absolutely not possible!
The zombies are all rough and thick-skinned, and it doesn't matter if they have fewer arms or legs.
But he is only a human body, and if he is scratched by a zombie, he is afraid that it will not be disemboweled.
"System, can you give me some more awesome mushrooms?"
I waited for a few minutes.
In the abandoned factory where the cold wind was howling, no one paid attention to him.
“……”
In the waist bag, the zombie carrion is already very small and is about to be consumed.
He crouched down, took the plastic bag, and dug up the flesh from the ones he had just killed.
Wrap your hand around the plastic bag, scoop up a large piece, and then flip over the plastic bag to cover it.
The zombie's flesh was black and rotten, cold and cold, and felt close to stinky mud.
It's disgusting, but it can't be helped.
After all, this thing is the energy source of the puff-mushroom, similar to ammunition.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind.
"If there's enough zombie carrion, can you make Spray-Mushroom grow more mycelium?"
Mycelial manipulation can control mycelial growth!
He pulled out the puff-mushroom and controlled a bunch of mycelium to pierce the zombie's body.
Mycelium manipulation, activation!
Suddenly, at the end of the spray mushroom, one hyphae after another grew.
Dense and fluffy.
In just a few breaths, it's like an extra ponytail.
"Let the mycelium wrap around my arm?"
If you wrap them around your arms and wrap them tightly, can you ...... As a layer of armor?
"System, how strong are these hyphae?"
[The strength of mycelium is related to the strain and positively correlated with the strength attribute of the host, and each root can resist the tensile force of 0.99.] 】
White Kabu grinned, overjoyed.
The strength value is really a good thing, and even the mycelial strength can be increased!
Each root can resist the tensile force of 0.99, which means that if more than 100 hyphae are integrated into the bundle, they will not be able to pull themselves?
Now the mycelium at the end of the puff mushroom is densely packed, and I am afraid that there are thousands of them!
Skills are activated, and thoughts are controlled.
This large bundle of mycelium rolled backwards towards his arm.
But the "horsetail" composed of this bundle of hyphae is extremely difficult to control.
From under your arms, jump to the top.
Then from the top of the arm, to the bottom.
It's hard to wrap your arm, even just to put it on your arm.
Bai Kabu tugged at the corners of his mouth, very helpless.
"System, how can we strengthen mycelial manipulation?"
[The host can increase his proficiency through independent practice; Intelligence has a bonus to mycelial manipulation. 】
"How can I increase my intelligence?"
[The system doesn't know.] 】
In other words, you can only rely on practice?
But how long does it take to get it right?
I don't know when the Corpse King will appear, will it be in time?
He pulled out more plastic bags, dug up more zombie meat, and put it in a backpack.
"Go ahead and complete the mission."
……
Another abandoned workshop.
Four more zombies lost their heads.

White Kabu grinned.
What does the long-awaited Dingding mushroom look like?
Find a low machine and sit down.
Ping stretched out his right hand.
"Pick!"
In the palm of his hand, there was a sudden mushroom the size of a bowl.
Lean in front of you and take a closer look.
It is crimson in color, with a short handle and a large and thick canopy.
Pinch with your hands.
Meaty, soft.
"If you eat it, can you break through to 100 points?"
Take a bite.
It's a little sweet.
Quite chewy.
I don't feel anything in my body.
Eat it all in your mouth.
Chew.
Tilt your neck and swallow.

【Super Mushroom System】
[Congratulations to the host, the strength has exceeded 100 points!] 】
[Congratulations to the host, promoted to bronze one star!] 】
Refreshing.
Bronze one star?
What the hell is that?
White Kabu threw a punch.
Hear the sound of breaking wind.
But that's all, I didn't notice anything different for the time being.
Could it be that the effect of the drug has not been exhausted?
"System, do you want to send me a new task?
"Add agility to a task?"
[The release conditions have not yet been met.] 】
White Kabu pondered for a moment.
Back to the vicinity of the settlement, the cotton mill workshop.
Although it is not wrapped in a field of grass to avoid corpses, the cold wind of late autumn still carries the smell of sour and astringent grass.
As a result, there are very few zombies.
After looking for a long time, there was only one.
Boom!
Its head shattered and its body fell.
Bai Kabu waited for a long time, but didn't get the system prompt.
"Is there really no more mission?"
He was a little disappointed.
Go into the abandoned workshop and find a sheltered and well-lit corner.
The wasteland apocalypse virus is rampant, and plants such as weeds and mosses are difficult to grow.
As a result, the floor of the workshop is quite dry, with just a bit of dust.
The white kabu brushed off the dust and sat cross-legged.
There is a window here that allows you to see the movement of the settlement from afar.
"Practice mycelial manipulation."
Puff mushrooms in hand.
Fluffy hyphae like horsetail, the roots are rolled backwards.
"Put it on your arm."
Mycelium can't do it.
Bai Kabu simply scooped up the mycelium with his left hand and put it on his arm.
At the same time, the mycelium is constantly manipulating, trying, remembering this feeling.
……
Half an hour passed.
The large bunches of hyphae that swelled like a horsetail can finally be controlled. Roll back and put your arms on your arms.
White Kabu is not cold.
Instead, he was sweating profusely.
"It's hard to control."

【Super Mushroom System】
[Congratulations to the host, through continuous practice, mycelium manipulation proficiency +1]
【Skills】
Mycelium Manipulation (Mastery 67/100)】
"66 is my wisdom attribute bonus, and 1 is a proficiency bonus?"
[Yes.] 】
White Kabu grinned.
Refreshing.
Switch the way you play!
He tried to weave every ten hyphae into bundles.
If there are only ten, that's easy.
But there are thousands of roots, hundreds of tens.
To cultivate this kind of thing, if you want to talk about the method, you can only try a few more times to enhance muscle memory.
"Take your time.
"My mycelium armor may be able to give the corpse king an insight.
"If this product comes later, give me more time to cultivate."
