Chapter 212: Self-preservation and spore eruption

The fungus stalk continues to grow taller and thicker at a speed visible to the naked eye, from more than one meter in diameter to three or four meters, five or six meters...... It's still growing.

And because of Mi Ajiu, the guardian god, strangling the eggs that surrounded him, the growth rate of mushrooms has never stopped.

The sky is getting brighter, and it seems that the day of this world is finally coming.

Miajiu's current vision could see several kilometers away, many of the fungus piles had decayed, dissolving into the sea of corrosion.

Only a few stumps have grown new ones.

Compared to the last time there were many canopies, now it can be said that there is not one in ten.

Mi Ajiu saw countless huge insect egg clumps floating in the sea of corrosion, and they all gathered around the newborn bacteria.

Countless insect eggs broke open, and dense insects climbed onto the fungus, crawling and gnawing all the way.

Similar to the situation of Miajiu's fungus, the newly hatched insects still can't gnaw on the hard stalks, so they crawl all the way to the canopy that is not yet fully opened.

The mycelium stacked under the canopy became more tender, and soon the insects gnawed out large holes.

They burrow through these holes and go above the canopy and continue to feast.

In a few moments, the whole mushroom was covered with a thick layer of wriggling green bugs.

Mi Ajiu said in her heart that it was a pity, the closest mushroom to her was also three or four kilometers away, and there was no better tool to cross the Corrosive Sea at the moment. There is a thick layer of eggs and shells floating on the surface of the sea, and it is easy to sink yourself in.

That's it, then keep your own mushrooms first.

This huge thallus is as strong as the tall buildings on the home planet.

Just when Mi Ajiu was a little regretful that he couldn't turn those insects into energy, he suddenly heard a loud "poof" sound from a distance.

She jerked her head up to follow the sound, and saw that the top of the mushroom, which was covered in countless insects, suddenly erupted into a cloud of gray-white smoke.

The smoke was thrown into the air by a powerful force and then dispersed in all directions.

Miajiu was stunned: Spores!

That's right, the smoke thrown by the giant mushroom was none other than the spores she had encountered when she first entered the world.

As soon as the spores were ejected into the air, the insects, like cats smelling fishy, leaned up at their heads, which were only their ring-shaped mouthparts, and tried their best to stretch out their two tentacles.

The tongue with extremely strong mucus came out of the mouthparts, quickly stuck to a spore larger than his own size, dragged it in front of him, and then began to gnaw a hole, burrowed himself into it and continued to eat slowly.

There were many more spores floating in the air, a few falling on the canopy and most falling into the sea of corrosion.

The surface of these spores seems to have a layer of corrosion to keep them out, and they are very light, so they can float in the sea.

As a result, these insects turned to gnaw on the spores, temporarily giving up attacking the bacteria themselves......

Mi Ajiu looked at the giant mushrooms and spores flying in the air in the distance, and then looked at the mushroom he was in, because the fungus was not attacked by insects, so it did not erupt spores and maintained the initial growth rate. She seemed to understand something.

Distant mushrooms spew spores to attract insects, and although they avoid eating their bodies to a certain extent, they also slow down their growth due to premature eruption of spores, and they almost stop.

A few days have passed, and the fungus stem where Mi Ajiu is located has a diameter of more than ten meters.

I wonder what the mushrooms of this world will grow into without being disturbed by external forces?

An inexplicable message came to her mind that she had seen in the pre-home civilization: to the effect that fungi were the largest life form in the world. The fungus seen by humans is a very small part of the fruiting body that is exhibited. The vast majority of them are simply invisible to humans.

So she's come to a world that's truly dominated by fungi?!

Even because of this corrosive sea that has almost annihilated all the fungi, the vitality here is no less than that of her home planet.

She couldn't help but think, if there was no such sea of corrosion, how could the vitality and vitality of this world be strong?

Miajiu kills a new batch of bugs that crawl onto his mushrooms, and the number of bugs gradually decreases.

The creatures still wrapped in the eggs seemed to sense the call of the spores and floated somewhere else.

Miajiu felt that staying here all the time was not an option, and that if she wanted to leave this area, she would have to accumulate more energy and experience points.

She looked at the large shells floating in the corrosive sea, and the spores that had fallen on them that had not been corrupted for a long time, and she had a bold decision.

Two days later, Mi Ajiu used the "forging" production line integrated in the [workshop] to process the first alloy sheet of more than 100 square meters.

High hardness, light weight and large area.

Concentrate more shells and sore fragments underneath the alloy sheet, barely allowing it to float on top.

Mi Ajiu jumped up slightly, very steady.

As she paddled forward, she collected more insect shells and other objects around her, placing them between the alloy sheets and the sea of corrosion.

After about half a day, she rushed to the nearest mushroom covered in insects.

Mi Ajiu slaughtered among these dense insects, and soon turned at least hundreds of thousands of insects into dozens of tons of energy and tons of jelly, so powerful and domineering!

[Purification] function proficiency reached more than 60%.

At the current rate, it is possible to achieve 100% progress by cleaning up more than a dozen mushrooms.

After cleaning up the insects, Mi Ajiu, who had accumulated spores, also collected some by the way.

It's just that there is an income of one or two thousand for every insect killed, and a spor is two or three thousand at most, and it can't be collected directly into the space, otherwise it will fly around in the space cell like a restless balloon. Every spor must be punctured and turned into pieces in order to be safely collected. Invisibly increases time.

Therefore, after cleaning up a mushroom, Mi Ajiu took a short rest, and by the way, he accumulated and strengthened the insect shells under the alloy sheet, and rushed directly to the next place.

A month passed, and the sky was shining.

The milky white mist floats throughout the space, releasing a large amount of water vapor from the canopy and turning into a thick isolation layer, suppressing the transpiring poisonous mist of the corrosive sea below.

Mi Ajiu can breathe now without a mask and oxygen in the space, just like when she first arrived in this world, except that the air humidity is too high, and she needs to wear two layers of masks to filter the water vapor.

She was still trying to accumulate [Purification] proficiency, and she was only less than ten percent away.

When you rest, you can assemble photovoltaic panels on a huge umbrella cover, store batteries, turn on the oxygen concentrator, and collect electricity and oxygen in case of emergency.

When she sat cross-legged and meditated on pranayama, she found that the free aura or energy particles in the air were very rich, almost comparable to the cultivation room that Xi Yuan had taken extra care of her.

The stars in the dantian evolved faster, and their bodies were full of strength.
