This dungeon has mushrooms growing on it.

Chapter 1010. Hunting Earthworms
Puji is ready.

Filling up the magic power of every Puji (including Inanna) not only consumed all the magic power used to decompose the Fire Mosquito, but also left almost all the magic power in the original stock.

After that, the magic power collected naturally will inevitably not be able to keep up with the consumption, which means that this batch of Puji will not have a second chance to replenish.

Operation Bug Hunt begins today.

It is quite spectacular to see 400 Pujis crowded together, most of which are artillery Pujis.

Not only is the earthworm enormous in size, it's also covered in a thick rocky shell, making it impervious to both hallucinogenic spores and digestive mucus.

As for the Puji with a shell, it is even more unnecessary. If it is hit by the attack of a heavyweight creature like the earth worm, it will be killed instantly regardless of whether it has a shell or not.

In order to defeat such a bug, Lin Jun can only choose to inflict damage.

Of course, there are plans.

These bugs burrow in and out of the ground all day long, their food is nothing more than various minerals, and their favorite snack is naturally the specialty of the Amethyst Dungeon - magic crystal.

And Lin Jun just happened to know how to detonate the magic crystal.

In the team, Lin Jun specially prepared 10 special Pujis.

Their hollow bellies are filled with magic crystals, and they are equipped with magic storage skills as energy to detonate the magic crystals.

For this hunt, Lin Jun spent all his savings.

All the magic crystals that were originally inserted into the soil of the mushroom garden to speed up the collection of magic power were dug out, which directly resulted in the natural magic collection efficiency of the mushroom garden being cut in half.

These magic crystals are both bait to lure the earthworm to appear and the first blow to it.

As for what happens after the first blow, that depends on the effectiveness of Miss Inanna's quagmire technique.

"Are you really going..."

The pink mushroom cap was shaking. She didn't feel safe at all because she had to jump at least 15 levels to fight the earthworms.

"New recruit, I remember the mercenary money has been handed over to you, right?"

Inanna felt the large A-grade magic crystal above her head and couldn't bring herself to say the word "give up".

It smells so good!

Not only does it allow her to cast spells in Puji form, but the power of her spells is almost doubled.

The amplification effect is far beyond what the small piece of B-grade magic crystal he had before could achieve.

"If the situation is really bad, I will allow you to escape and will not take back the magic crystal." Lin Jun relaxed the conditions at the right time.

Although Inanna still wanted to say that she might not be able to escape with her short legs, she thought that having permission to escape was better than not having it.

The pink mushroom cap nodded, and a consensus was reached.

Lin Jun allowed Inanna to escape not because he was kind-hearted, but simply because if things were impossible, there was no need to let her die in vain.

After the battle at the Fire Mosquito Nest, Lin Jun discovered that magic was indeed useful.

If Puji is gone, he can produce it again. If the magic crystal is gone, he can dig it again. But if Inanna is gone, where can he get someone who can use magic and is easy to use?
----

This time the journey was much longer than the trip to the Fire Mosquito Nest. Inanna even felt that she had deliberately taken a detour.

However, there were almost no obstacles along the way. They only encountered a large black and white spider, whose head was cut off by Inanna's tracking ice blade.

The end point is a broken cave.

It can't even be called a cave anymore.

The entire space is densely packed with passages left by earthworms. To describe it as leaky on all sides would be an exaggeration.

After observation, Lin Jun found that there were several new passages compared to the last time he came to explore.

The self-destructive Puji and the magic crystal were placed on a relatively intact piece of ground, and the other turret Pujis were scattered around the scattered caves.

Lin Jun did not arrange Inanna anywhere else, but let her stay at the edge of the passage they came from.

Slowly urging the magic power into the magic crystal, the magic fluctuations emitted by a large number of magic crystals even made Lin Jun feel greedy.

Inanna also knew the specific plan, and she looked at the pile of magic crystals with a sense of pity. Boss Lin Jun was a spendthrift, having even used some Grade A magic crystals as explosives to increase his chances of success.

Although it's not as big as hers, it's also an A-grade magic crystal!

If this pile of magic crystals were left outside, it would be enough to hire the Diamond Team to kill ten earthworms, but now it is just used to blow up the earthworms.

It's really a waste of resources.

After the magic fluctuations spread, no earthworms were seen for a while, but some other monsters came instead.

There were the black and white spiders that I had encountered on the road before, as well as deformed monsters with sharp fangs and teeth.

However, they were all killed by a few shots from the surrounding Pujis and did not cause any trouble.

What surprised Lin Jun was that he actually saw a LV35 Minotaur, commonly known as a minotaur.

This was also the first time that Lin Jun encountered a classic monster like the Minotaur.

The opponent obviously had a high IQ. He retreated when he saw our lineup from afar.

If they met at another time, Lin Jun would definitely try to communicate with them. As both were intelligent monsters, perhaps they could live in harmony?
But forget it today.

at last,

A continuous vibration came from underground. The gravel at Inanna's feet shook wildly in the soil, and some newly opened tunnel entrances were dropping gravel.

An unlucky Puji was smashed into a pool of mycelium by the falling rocks above before it even started, becoming the first sacrificial mushroom of this operation.

"It's coming, it's coming. When do you cast the magic? Do you want to cast the Quagmire now?"

When the time came, Inanna became nervous again.

"Calm down Inanna, I'll tell you when it's time to let go. Don't panic."

Lin Jun gently advised Inanna to stay calm, but he did not notice that his tone was becoming uncontrollably tense, and beneath the calm tone was an uncontrollable excitement.

The two of them were not kept in suspense for too long.

The ground on one side of the cave collapsed with a loud bang, a huge insect rose from the ground, and 20 Puji disappeared into the huge mouth in an instant.

[Level: LV49]

It was exactly Lin Jun’s target—the earthworm!
"Coming!"

The earthworm's body bent in the air and pounced towards the magic crystal with a clear target.

All the Pujis did not open fire, and Lin Jun even stopped Inanna, who was almost stressed, from casting magic.

Almost there, not yet time.

Magic power poured into the magic crystal frantically, and the fluctuations of magic power became more and more turbulent.

When it was about to reach the top, the huge mouth dropped down, covering the ten Puji along with all the magic crystals.

1...2...

boom--

The earth-shaking explosion tore apart the giant mouth of the earthworm, and the several-meter-thick rock armor burst from the inside.

The splattered rock fragments flew in all directions at an alarming speed, causing considerable casualties to the Pujis.

The entire mouth of the earthworm was completely blown to pieces.

As for the head, Lin Jun was not sure where the earthworm's head was, or whether it had a head.

All I know is that even after suffering such an injury, it still did not lose its vitality, but was struggling in pain.

The remaining body twisted wildly, half of the insect body slapped the surrounding rock layers, causing a landslide, and the remaining digging feet were frantically digging the ground trying to drill back underground.

Inanna's body trembled violently, and Lin Jun's command exploded directly into her consciousness in the form of a broken, off-key voice:

"Quarry! Quick!"
