Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Mushroom Tribe!

The second floor of the sewer is more slippery than the first floor, and the walls are more corroded.

Under the illumination of the [Light Technique], the damaged torches on the walls on both sides were faintly visible, which were the tools used by the workers to light the sewers, after all, in such a deep underground, without torch lighting, ordinary people may not even be able to walk.

Coming down the stairs, the formation of the adventure party immediately changed, and Gondok was still standing at the front, and the others were in the center, but Eliza, who was originally standing at the back, also came to the side of Gondok.

"Unleash [Illumination] on the warrior's shield!"

"Others are hiding behind!"

Eliza is a dark elf and a devout of the Dark Maiden, and when it comes to fighting in the dark, there is no one in the adventure party other than Ike Flaude.

So when she made the suggestion, Grimm was naturally good, and immediately released the [Light Technique] onto Gondork's shield, extinguishing the light on the staff.

Then, in the darkness in front of Gondork, there was the sound of footsteps trampling sewage, and a skeleton appeared in front of the adventure party.

"Glock, my dear guide, didn't you say that there were only mushrooms, mud monsters, and ghost naga?"

Looking at the skeletons at the front of the group, Green turned to Grock and spoke in a somewhat unkind tone. He's the leader of the Adventure Squad and needs to balance the safety of the team and whether or not they complete the mission, and other accidents are all bad factors, even if it's just a small skeleton.

"Hey, mage, I can't help it!"

"After all, there are so many dead people in the sewers, there must be one or two who will stand up!"

Watching the dwarven guide Grock who was standing beside him spread out his hands in a helpless gesture, Green turned his head to look at the skeleton.

The skeleton's eyes did not light up with soul fire, indicating that it was still a lowliest resurrected undead, and it was only because of the negative energy gathered in the dark sewers that it managed to stand up and unconsciously guard it. It doesn't even have a challenge level of 1, and it only takes Gondor to smash it into pieces with a light swing of his shield.

This is another hint, although there is only a skeleton in front of them, no one can know what is hiding in the darkness of the sewers, after all, the number of workers who died while building the sewers is extremely high, and there is also a lich hiding in the depths of the sewers!

"Forward!"

After a moment's thought, Green let Gondok swing his heavy shield with brilliance and slam it on the spine of the skeleton in front of him, and a series of bone cracks rang out, and the skeleton suddenly turned into a pile of broken bones, only the mandible was still silently opening and closing.

Then, Gondork's steel boots trampled down, shattering the last shres of negative energy attached to the skeleton.

............

As we progressed, the chill in the sewers grew, and the first forks in the road appeared in front of Gondork, pointing in three directions.

"Turn right in front and you'll be on the mushroom territory. ”

Glock's voice came at the right time, guiding the party in the right direction, and then after turning the corner, three corpses appeared in front of the party.

"These are supposed to be adventurers who used to explore this place, and I don't know why they died here. ”

As the scout of the team, Ike crossed Gondork to check on the three corpses in leather armor and rusty weapons in their hands, and the most terrifying thing was that these corpses were covered in colorful mushrooms, and starting with the corpses, a series of mushrooms were distributed along the corners of the wall, growing in size as far away, and finally encased the entire sewer passage in a web of mycelium.

But at the moment when Ike checked, a cloud of yellow dust dispersed from the mushrooms growing on the corpse, enveloping Ike who was caught off guard, and then spreading to the rear, enveloping the entire adventure team.

Then, a whisper rang in the ears of each of the adventure squads.

"Stand back...... Leave ......"

"Here...... Not Welcome...... You ......"

............

"Don't worry, it's the macaroni spores of the mushrooms. ”

"It's just a means of communication, it won't hurt us. ”

Stirred by the yellow dust, Ike Flode's figure immediately disappeared, lurking into the darkness, but listening to the whisper in his ear, Green instead took a few steps forward and came to the place where Ike disappeared.

The mushroom people do not trust outsiders because they believe that all outsiders are destructive and violent, so in order to maintain a peaceful and quiet life, they will sprinkle macaroni spores on outsiders for psychic communication to dissuade outsiders from leaving their territory.

But this time, the party had to pass through their territory, as the road to the lich's lair was just behind the mushroom territory.

"We, no hostility!"

"It's just a matter of passing through your territory!"

"How...... Proof ......"

"We ...... Need to prove ......"

Facing the deep passage, Green's words echoed through the passage, and then the whisper sounded again, and with this whisper, the mushrooms more than two feet high in the corner of the wall strangely lifted their canopies, revealing pairs of red points of light.

They pulled up from the dirt in the corner, split into two thick legs under the handle, and a pair of wooden arms with only three fingers protruded from under the canopy, gathering at the front of the adventure party.

"A group of young mushroom ......"

The challenge level of the mushroom is very large, and the young mushroom or even an ordinary adult can't beat it, while the most powerful mushroom king has a challenge level of as high as 7, which is in the same level as the high-level undead ghost Naga.

That's why Green didn't choose to go hard.

However, the problem of the mushroom people also stumped Green, because the adventure team really couldn't prove that they only needed to pass through the mushroom territory, and would not cause any harm to the mushroom people.

"I can't prove it!"

"However, my team must pass today!"

"This ...... Be...... Provocation ......"

Green's rogue state clearly angered the mushroom people, and from the passage wrapped in mycelium, more and more, bigger and bigger mushroom people stepped out and stood in front of the adventure party, glaring at the adventure party with fiery red eyes.

"Middle-aged mushroom people, elderly mushroom people, mushroom leaders......"

"It's a big problem!"

Reminded by Green, Ike also returned to reality from the shadows, and he also recognized what kind of creature was in front of him. And as the number of mushrooms and the number of mushroom powerhouses in front of the team increased, not only Ike, but also the other members of the adventure team had solemn faces, and they put up battle camps and prepared for battle!

However, all of this is still under Green's control.

"But there's one thing we can do for you. ”

Without the slightest change in his face, Green said the second half of the sentence, and then the Qin people in front of the adventure team suddenly paused, and after a while, they activated the psychic communication function of macaroni again.

"My king...... Want to meet ...... You ......"

"Please...... Keep up with ......"
