After a conversation with Diao Zhiming, a monk in the Transformation Period, the four of them simply settled in this settlement.

This is because they don't know much about the situation on Planet 021, and there is nowhere to go at the moment.

Second, in the dangerous environment of Planet 021, huddle for heating is undoubtedly the best choice.

Night.

The underground survivors' settlement, where they survived, were in the tents.

Because the unspeakable creatures on planet 021 are extremely active, under their prying eyes, monks such as Chengsheng cannot practice normally at all.

Since he couldn't practice, he had nothing to do, so he turned to continue researching the diary he had found from the original owner's residence in the shell.

With the faint light of the pine resin oil lamp, the diary of the original owner of the living shell was opened.

But see the last pages of the diary that read:

[First Extraction Record.] 】

[Temperature: 30 °C, the extract used is: light saline.] 】

[Extraction Result: Failed.] 】

【Second extraction.】 】

[After controlling the variable, after increasing the temperature to 35°C, the extraction effect was significantly improved, but it still failed.] 】

[Third extraction.] 】

[Control the variable again, keep the temperature at about 35°, and replace the light brine with concentrated brine to control the concentration at about 15%.] 】

[The third extraction was successful.] 】

According to the diary:

After the third successful extraction of the 'Dark Spore', the original owner of the shell injected the extract into his body in one go.

It may be that the extract will have a certain effect on the human spirit.

Nearly ninety percent of the diary entries recorded by the original owner of the shell after injecting the extract were useless nonsense, confusing and illogical.

Chengsheng watched it repeatedly for a long time before extracting some useful content from it:

In short, it is an extract extracted from the 'dark spores', which is suspected to improve people's physical fitness and gain superhuman strength.

However, the extract also has certain side effects:

This extract can greatly improve the injector's perception, including the injector's perception of fear.

And the sharper the injector's perception of fear, the more likely they are to be targeted by 'those creatures'.

That's it for this page of the diary.

Survive and continue to turn the pages backwards.

[I'm awake.] 】

[After injecting the extract last night, I felt that my whole consciousness was confused, and I woke up the next day with a hangover and a very painful head. But all this effort was worth it, I could clearly feel that my strength had increased, and my speed was faster than before, I don't know how many times. 】

[But I've run out of mushrooms, so I can't continue the experiment.] 】

[I've got to go out and find more mushrooms.] 】

That's it for this page.

Survive and turn the page back again.

The third page is still a record of the extraction of 'dark spores'.

Moreover, the amount of mushrooms collected by the original owner this time, that is, the 'dark spores', was obviously several times more than before.

Therefore, this time, the original owner extracted the 'dark spore extract', which is far more than last time.

Here's what to know about the extraction experiments:

[After many experiments, I found that the extraction effect is the most perfect by keeping the temperature at about 37°C, which is just very close to the human body temperature, is it just a coincidence?] 】

Immediately afterwards, the original owner injected the extracted dark spore extract into his body again.

As a result, what was recorded by the original owner became chaotic and illogical again;

[Like last time, I hear it again, and I feel like I'm getting closer to it.] 】

[Maybe a few more injections, and I'll be able to truly merge with it.] 】

[Then I will be truly liberated. 】

[By the way, its name is 'fungus'.] 】

"Bacteria."

In the tent.

The moment he saw the word 'fungus' in the diary, he immediately subconsciously read it out.

A few seconds later, an indescribable sense of strange fear also appeared in the camp where the survival was located.

It's different from the fear you felt in the forest before you lived.

The fear in the forest was emanating from the creatures, so although I felt the fear at the time, it was not affected much.

And this time, the sense of fear that accompanied the word 'fungus' took less than a breath to crush the whole person to the ground.

The fear was too powerful to describe in words.

In addition to fear, Chengsheng also felt the same depression and despair that are difficult to describe in words.

'Poof'!

The survival of the huge impact on both spirit and body finally could no longer hold on, and a pool of blood spurted out of his mouth.

"Cheng Daoyou, are you okay?"

Maybe I felt the horror inside the tent.

At the same time as she was spitting blood from her mouth, the voice of the Mother of Pain sounded outside the tent: "Is it convenient for me to come in now?" ”

In the tent.

Cheng Sheng stood up and responded, "Come in, I'm fine." ”

Not long after the Mother of Pain entered the camp, the Buddha, Lei Ting and Diao Zhiming also rushed to the scene one after another.

Cheng Huo glanced at everyone and said with a wry smile: "I just accidentally discovered the name of an unspeakable creature on this planet in a diary. ”

"I really didn't expect that just by reciting the name of the indescribable creature, I was directly crushed by its breath and seriously injured."

"That's an exaggeration."

"I've invaded many planets, and I've never been able to call them by name."

Cheng Huo said with palpitations: "It's too domineering to say something like this that can't even be named." ”

"Although the situation encountered by enlightened friends is rare, it is actually quite normal."

The Buddha explained, "After all, it is well known that the more polluted the planet, the more active the unspeakable creatures on it, so when the monk is on the planet, his words and deeds are more likely to attract the attention of the unspeakable creatures. ”

"This includes calling unspeakable creatures by name."

"It's just that most of the unnamed creatures on the planets are in a semi-deep or completely sleepy state, and even if there are unnamed creatures on a few planets that are about to wake up, it is far less exaggerated than the central region of the galaxy."

"That's why we call unspeakable creatures by their names on those planets, and nothing happens."

In the tent.

As soon as the Buddha's words fell, all the monks showed a look of understanding.

The Mother of Pain wondered, "So, what is the name of the unspeakable creature on this planet?"

Cheng Sheng didn't speak, but just wrote the word 'fungus' in the void with his hand.

When all the monks saw this, they all nodded knowingly.

When it was confirmed that Cheng Huo was safe and sound, everyone went their separate ways, and soon only Cheng Huo was left in the tent.

After everyone left, Chengsheng turned the diary to the last few pages again.

His gaze stayed on the record of 'bacteria' in his diary:

Like last time, I heard it again, and I felt like I was getting closer and closer to it. ’

Maybe a few more injections and I'll be able to really become one with it." ’

Apparently.

The dark spore extract can not only improve the injector's physical fitness in all aspects, but also allow the injector to perceive the indescribable organism 'bacteria' on the planet.

Although it is not yet certain whether this perception is good or bad.

However, the researchers at the Black Worm Star 'headquarters' have been spending a lot of money to hire God-stage monks and make them go to the center of the galaxy to collect 'dark spores'.

So come to think of it, there must be some big secret hidden in the 'dark spores' or 'dark spore extract'.

It's extremely valuable and deserves a closer look.

Thinking of this, Cheng Sheng tried to extract the 'Dark Spore Extract' according to the method described in the original owner's diary.

…

At the same time.

Directly below the giant statue of the monk in the settlement.

As always.

Night.

After worshipping the giant monk statue with the others, Dongmenlin silently walked in the direction of his tent.

On the way, he suddenly felt something, and looked towards the mushroom field where the 'Crystal Mushroom' mushroom was planted outside the residential area.

The mushrooms in the mushroom field glow with a pale blue glow.

The mushrooms are clustered together in a magnificent underground cavern, and this is one of the few things that the survivors of the settlement enjoy.

Almost every time Dongmenlin went out of the camp, he would take a look at the mushroom field.

But this time, the situation seems to be a little different from usual.

Dongmenlin had a very strange feeling:

At this moment, it was clear that there was nothing in the mushroom field, and Dongmenlin did not see anything except mushrooms with his naked eyes.

But subconsciously, he could feel that there was a strange man in a black robe, crouching in the mushroom field and looking at him.

Dongmen Lin walked forward, and the black robed strange man followed suit, and always kept a certain distance from Dongmen Lin, staring at Dongmen Lin from afar.

The strange man's eyes, hidden under the hood of his black robe, reveal an inexplicable fear, depression, and despair.

Is it pollution?

Seeing the strange scene on the mushroom field, Dongmen Lin couldn't help but look around.

Seeing the other survivors not far away, all with calm expressions, he knew that he might be hallucinating.

- Since the Dark Spore grew wildly and the entire planet was heavily polluted, the surviving humans occasionally saw hallucinations, which is nothing new.

Therefore, Dongmen Lin, who saw the black-robed stranger, did not react too much, but silently quickened his pace, wanting to return to his tent as soon as possible.

There are pine oil lamps in the camp tent of Dongmenlin.

This kind of oil lamp comes from the hand of Diao Zhiming, the head of the village in the settlement, and has the effect of warding off evil spirits and breaking obstacles after being lit.

He wanted to use this pine oil lamp to dispel the illusions he saw in the mushroom fields.

I don't know why.

On the way back to the camp, Dongmen Lin obviously didn't look at the mushroom field, but there was an incomparably clear picture in his mind:

As Dongmen Lin's pace accelerated, the black-robed strange man in the mushroom field also sped up slightly, and followed Dongmen Lin from a distance.

The black-robed freak was always hunched back.

It didn't say a word, just stared at Dongmenlin quietly.

This feeling is very weird: Dongmen Lin obviously didn't look at the black-robed stranger anymore, but in his mind, the eyes of the black-robed stranger always intersected with him.

It's getting wrong.

We had to go back to the tent as soon as possible and light the pine oil lamp.

Dongmenlin, who felt inexplicable fear in his heart, had quickly turned into running.

Meanwhile.

The black-robed strange man in the mushroom field also rushed towards Dongmen Lin at this moment.

Wrong.

To be precise, the weirdo was running in Dongmenlin's mind, because Dongmenlin couldn't see anything at all in the wheat field.

All the pictures about the black-robed weirdos appeared directly in Dongmen Lin's mind from beginning to end.

！！

Seeing that the strange man was getting closer and closer to him, Dongmen Lin felt an inexplicable sense of fear in his heart, and rushed into his tent like crazy.

And at the moment when Dongmen Lin opened the curtain of the camp tent and entered it

If you only see with the naked eye, then there is nothing in the tent at this moment.

But if you use your brain to 'see', then Dongmenlin will have such a lingering picture in his mind at the moment:

The strange man who had been crouching on the mushroom field before was hunched over in the camp tent at this moment, looking intently at Dongmenlin.

The robe freak has no facial features other than his eyes.

Instead, there were countless dense purple-black mushrooms that covered the entire face.

…

Meanwhile.

The tent in which he lived.

According to the method described in the journal of the original owner of the shell, a full syringe of 'Dark Spore Extract' was extracted from a 'dark spores' in the early days of survival.

Just as he was about to find a survivor in the settlement and test the effect of the extract, he suddenly heard a terrible scream from outside the tent.

Then the whole settlement became noisy.

Cheng Huo followed the sound to the scene of the incident.

Seeing that the village chief Diao Zhiming was also present, he took the opportunity to ask: "What is the situation now?" ”

"The unspeakable creatures have begun to take action, and the contamination has spread to our settlements."

Diao Zhiming, the village chief, said, and suddenly pointed to a tent in front of him.

Cheng Huo followed Diao Zhiming's point and looked towards the inside of the tent: but saw that in the tent, there was a survivor covered with countless purple-black mushrooms.

The survivor's body is exuding a strong 'fear'.

The man was not dead.

Although his whole body was covered with mushrooms, he still had a breath left.

His friend stepped forward with a blade and wanted to help give the survivor a relief, but saw the village chief Diao Zhiming stop the other party and said, "Don't get close to your friend, he is now affected by the mushroom and has hallucinated. If you get close to him, you will also be pulled into the illusion, and the illusion will continue to squeeze the 'fear'. ”

After stopping this person, the village chief Diao Zhiming said to the rest of the survivors: "Everyone check to see if there is any contamination and mushrooms growing on the body, if so, report to me in time!" ”

Mushrooms.

After being reminded by the village chief, Chengsheng seemed to feel something, and hurriedly lifted the clothes on his waist.

But seeing that the waist of the body he was currently occupying was already densely packed, a small piece of chilling purple-black mushrooms had grown.

Chengsheng also got hit
