Arcane Journey

Chapter 60 The conspiracy of the fungus queen

A soft and bright light rose from ahead, emanating from a huge cavern.

The floors, walls and ceilings throughout the cave are covered with moss and fungi, all in muted shades of white, pink, purple, green and baby blue.

The light diffused from the mushroom made the distant scenery shake, as if seeing the strange beauty in the dream through the mist.

"Lightless Woodland is facing corruption." An old voice sounded in Brian's heart.

He turned around and looked at the tall mushroom man king.

It stood in the open space of the cave, with a pale blue light shining on the rough umbrella-like mushroom cover, setting off its tall and thin body as a virtual reality.

"The queen shared dreams through telepathic communication, implanting corruption in the colony, turning our peaceful nature into agitation and frenzy."

The fungus King Basdia hung down his glowing mushroom cap and said sadly, "Although we are aware of the existence of corruption and are trying to resist it, it is difficult to have enough resources to solve the current problem without outside help. strength.

The few of us who have not been corrupted can only hide our minds, carefully avoiding other mushroom people to touch them when they recite, so as not to shake their hearts.My supporters are dwindling, and more and more myconids are unknowingly infected with the fungus queen spores, making the quiet and peaceful Sunless Grove more and more unrestrained. "

Brian and Hesaiah remained silent, listening quietly to what the mushroom man had to say.

"Everything you saw in front of the dark forest is real." The Fungus King sighed in the hearts of the two, and slowly told what happened:
"Attracted by the surging radiation of the earth's veins, the queen of fungi came down with a consciousness from the bottomless abyss, and this consciousness happened to be attracted by the vibrant fungi in the lightless forest. Under the nourishment of the radiation energy of the earth's veins, the queen of fungi successfully transformed herself His consciousness transformed into a clone, descending into the dark region.

After she arrived in the Dark Forest, she quickly analyzed the situation and found that the fastest way to fully control the forest was to confuse and corrupt the local native Fungus King, and let him serve her until she regained the power of her avatar, so as to strengthen her deity.

After Filo welcomed the fungus queen into the woodland, the queen secretly had a reunion with the fungus king.She described a mushroom man's paradise to Filo, and lured the mushroom man king to lead everyone to become her followers in the material plane.

In this never-ending communion, Philo loses himself in the queen's menacing visions of madness.The promised fertile soil and nourishment, the recurring saprophytic and beautiful and transcendent dreams will all be gifts from the generous and great lady of decay to the people of the woodland. "

"So, the consciousness of the fungal queen descending to your matte forest is a greatly weakened incarnation." Bryan pondered for a moment and asked the doubts in his heart, "Then can you judge her general strength? "

The so-called mushroom people are a group of mushroom people who can walk.

He is quite familiar with the information of these mushroom people.

In the mushroomman society, their strengths are generally divided into the mushroomman guards, the leader of the mushroomman association, and the mushroomman king.

If estimated by data, the approximate challenge level of the mushroom man guard is 4, the challenge level of the leader of the mushroom man association is 6, and the challenge level of the mushroom man king is 7.

Of course, this is just an average value estimated after data statistics, which is convenient for players to refer to. It does not mean that some powerful existences will not appear in the mushroom man race.

Just like the old mushroom man king in front of him.

Bryan took a rough look and estimated that the opponent's challenge level was at least 10.

At the same time, he still can't guarantee whether King Fungiman has become a priest.

From the words of the mushroom man king, he came to a conclusion: the incarnation of the fungus queen Zugmoy really came to the Underdark.

Since this incarnation was transformed by the descending consciousness after absorbing enough energy radiated from the leylines, this also led to the fact that the strength of the fungal queen was not as terrifying as imagined.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to let so many slip through the net in the Dark Forest.

Therefore, at this moment, he must confirm the general strength of the fungus demon queen, so that he can consider whether to help these mushroom people.

"I have tried to get in touch with the consciousness hidden in the deepest part of the woodland after the Fungus Demon, and her evil sound and light effects." The mushroom king Basdia was silent for a long time, and the voice transmitted to the bottom of the two hearts was full of fear .

"Although I can feel that the strength of her incarnation condensed by the radiant energy of the earth veins is very weak, the innate suppressive force of the Queen of the Devils on our mushroom people makes me even close to the core association and the master association. No courage."

"You are afraid that you will be infected with the same spores as Philo, so you dare not try to contact the fungal queen, right?" Brian nodded thoughtfully, expressing his conjecture, "So, you took the initiative to find Our purpose is to"

He didn't continue talking. Although he believed his guess, the other party still needed to admit it.

"exactly."

The Fungus King nodded slightly, "The Fungus Queen cultivated the Yogmogu Palace in the depths of the lightless forest, a huge mushroom rooted in this fertile rotten soil. This palace is the base of the Fungus Queen. She Completely controlled Filo, and is letting the unfortunate myconid king raise her an army of myconids and spore minions."

"Then what is the so-called 'wedding' that mushroom man Wang Feiluo said?"

Hesaiah couldn't help asking out the doubts that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time, "The mushroom people in the entire woodland seem to be preparing for the wedding of 'Lady'."

"In fact, I don't know anything about the 'wedding'."

The Mushroom King sighed, "As long as my subordinates get close to the territory of the core association and the master association, they will be instantly corrupted and become their servants. It is impossible for us to hear any news, and we even took the risk of hiring a drow patrol After this group of dark elves entered the territory of the master association, there has been no news so far.

Although I don't know what the so-called 'wedding' means, but I have a hunch that if the fungus queen's wedding is really successful, then our entire Sunless Forest will face the doom of corruption. "

The wedding of the fungus queen?
Bryan pondered for a moment, recalling that in the game world, in the fungal forest in the underground world of the "Supreme Forest" in the North, there was a "rotten wedding" that horrified the world.

The bride at the wedding is none other than Zugmoi, Queen of the Fungus Demon.

The fungus queen Zugmoy plots to 'marry' the fungal forests that occupy large swaths of the Underdark.

She is married to the fungal forest in a way that is diabolical and profane to marriage—indeed, a rite of demonic domination.

Because on the surface, the fungal forest is actually a huge woodland composed of countless fungal mushrooms.

But in the eyes of the queen Zugmoi, who is also a fungal creature, the fungal forest is more similar to a life form.

If the Fungus Queen uses evil demon domination rituals to marry the life form of the Fungal Forest.

Then Zugmoy would gain the right to rule over all the fungi and life in the Fungal Forest.

This is the same as the combination of human aristocrats and the control of each other's family power.

As long as the 'wedding' is successfully held, the Queen of Fungi can gain the ability to transform the entire fungal forest, turning it into her brand new power in the abyss domain, so as to strengthen herself.

It can be seen from this.

Tomorrow's 'wedding' in the dark forest is the same as the fungal forest.

After all, compared to the huge fungal forest, the dull woodland is more like a small forest.

With the current strength of the incarnation of the Fungal Queen, she can only start by attacking the weak forests to gradually increase her strength until she has the ability to control the entire fungal forest.

Obviously, she was progressing very smoothly, and in the power she slowly accumulated, she finally possessed the strength enough to dominate the fungal forest.

Unfortunately, the fungal queen's long-planned plan failed.

Because all that stood in front of her were the core force of the fungus tribe and the ooze army of her arch-rival, the king of oozes, Jubilex.

What determines the outcome is the strength of their player groups.

If Brian really killed the evil plan planned by the fungus queen hidden in the lightless forest in the cradle, the fungus forest located at the bottom of the highest forest might have survived.

"You two adventurers, if you can't help us, the entire Sunless Forest will be in danger of corruption." The Fungus King hung down his pale blue mushroom head, pleading.

Hisaiah set her eyes on Bryan, waiting for his decision.

Bryan thought for a moment, met the thin and tall mushroom man king in front of him, and pretended to be displeased, "I can help you, but the prerequisite for cooperation between the two parties is that we need to be honest with each other, am I right? , the priest of Persian Lofeel?"
