This dungeon has mushrooms growing on it.

Chapter 11 11.2V401, Epic Victory
The magic crystal above Inanna's head lit up, and she used the Quagmire Technique in a slightly panicked manner.

The originally solid ground beneath the earthworm turned into a quagmire in an instant, and the gravel dug out turned into muddy water.

However, the thickness of the swampy ground is limited. Deeper underground, at the end of the giant worm's body, the ground is still solid.

Near that small section underground, the earthworms were still slowly shrinking underground.

Of course Lin Jun wouldn't just watch it run away.

"Inanna, keep using the quagmire technique, don't stop!"

"it is good."

At the same time, the Pujis that had been suffering damage all around finally began to fight back, and the "pop" sound of the mushroom cannons firing was endless.

Lin Jun controlled the firepower and concentrated it on the shattered parts of the earthworm's rock armor.

The health of the earthworm on the panel is constantly decreasing. At the speed it drills down, it can't escape!

To be done!
The hope of breaking out of the dungeon by yourself!

After that, just move here temporarily and eat all the earthworms to gain skills, then you can dig it up and see the light of day again!

It's been a long time since I last basked in the sun.

But... why did the ground start shaking again?
The direction of the vibration is...

……

"Inanna, run back!"

"Eh?"

Inanna, who was still concentrating on continuing the quagmire technique, did not react at all and just subconsciously took two steps back.

The next second, another giant insect broke out of the rock in front of her!

The protruding rock armor passed by, and Inanna was sent flying into the passage as if she had been hit by an uppercut.

"Inanna? Inanna!"

There was no response. Lin Jun hurriedly opened the panel - 400 blood points were lost.

Fortunately, she had more than 3,000 health points and was far from dead, but she was obviously unconscious.

The four nearby Pujis picked up the unconscious Inanna and the A-level magic crystal that fell to the ground and retreated deeper into the tunnel.

Inanna was safe for the time being, but the situation on the battlefield was not optimistic.

The second earthworm that suddenly broke in was running around the cave, and a large number of them were crushed to death.

The swamp that trapped the injured earthworms was gradually hardening without Inanna's support, and the speed at which the earthworms drilled down began to increase significantly.

Why is there a second earthworm?

Is it because I put too many magic crystals and the attraction is too strong?
Or do these bugs also have a sense of companionship and help each other?
There was no time to think about it. The second earthworm was definitely not going to be dealt with, so Lin Jun could only concentrate his firepower to continue attacking the injured one.

Without paying attention to the continuous casualties, Lin Jun vented his firepower with all his strength.

As long as I can reduce its health to 0 before it runs away...

----

"What? Are you saying I was knocked away by another earthworm?"

There are 23 Pujis, and one Inanna who has woken up but is still confused and even a little excited.

That was all the strength needed to retreat back to the mushroom garden.

The low-health earthworm finally escaped with the last bit of blood, and the remaining Pujis suffered heavy losses under the harassment of another earthworm.

What's worse is that many places collapsed, and many Pujis were unable to return to the tunnel they came from, and finally had no choice but to give up.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the magical fluctuations from the battle here scared away all the small monsters around.

There were no further attacks on the way back.

Otherwise, I’m afraid no one will come back.

Lin Jun is now like a stock investor who spent all his money to invest in A-shares and ended up leaving with nothing.

All my savings are gone.

Fortunately, there was no collateral loan in the dungeon, so he still had a mushroom garden left...

Mushrooms do not share the same joys and sorrows.

Lin Jun was still secretly saddened by his losses, but Inanna was in a good mood. She didn't know that Lin Jun was hunting earthworms to escape the dungeon, nor did she know how much he had risked on this hunt.

In her opinion, it would be fine to organize the hunt later. It's impossible to have two earthworms every time, right?

She only knew that Lin Jun kept his promise, and the A-level magic crystal that was tied to the mushroom cap again was finally officially hers.

Inanna decided to call Lin Jun "Boss" from now on!
As for almost being bitten by a groundworm?
There is no sense of reality at all.

I suddenly fainted, and thanks to the LV4 life recovery, my health was full when I woke up.

There's no impression of being injured at all. It feels like I've earned some magic crystals just by lying down...

She even thought that maybe she could get a new A-grade magic crystal during the next hunt?
In a corner of the mushroom garden, under a big mushroom, at the end of a 10-meter-long passage made of mycelium extending downwards, there is a 3X3 underground space.

Lin Jun's true form, an ordinary green mushroom, is right here.

In the same room was a special Puji that exuded a powerful aura.

Different from the other cannon fodder Puji, this one was bred from the beginning of the mushroom garden, and its skills and levels were all raised to the limit of Lin Jun's strongest Puji.

It is the exclusive car that Lin Jun prepared for himself.

The question now facing Lin Jun is:

Should I just spend a lot of time accumulating strength and hunting earthworms again?
Or should we go back to the original plan and wait until the next time the Flame Demon goes out, and then take the risk of using Super Puji to sneak Lin Jun's real body up there?

----

At the same time, at the entrance of the passage between the deep layer and the 10th layer, at the lair of the fire demon.

"It's so hot! Is this the deep area of ​​the Amethyst Dungeon? It's not all lava, is it? Are you sure that young lady would be in a place like this?"

Night Owl tugged uncomfortably at the collar of his tights.

She had no resistance to high temperatures at all, and had to drink a bottle of fire protection potion to barely stand here.

Even so, I felt very uncomfortable and just wanted to leave quickly.

A cooling spell was cast on several people, and Night Owl's expression finally relaxed.

"It really saved my life."

The light on the staff faded, and Ivan smiled and nodded.

The Halfling Archmage is quite reliable when he is not addicted to magic.

Captain Nova held the positioning crystal in his hand and sensed it.

"Yes, the guidance direction is almost horizontal, it should be in the upper part of the deep area."

"But this is the deep zone! It's almost a month, and I might not survive."

Different from the first ten layers which have clear classes.

Each previous level has its own characteristics, monster level ranges, available rules, etc.

Night Owl thought that as long as he had a strategy, he could easily survive on his own.

But the deep area is different. It is extremely chaotic and there are monsters of all levels here.

What’s more important is that the monsters inside are still roaming around, and each time adventurers come down they may encounter a completely different situation.

Just like the information they had in their hands three years ago, it said that a LV59 fire demon would come out of this passage.

As a result, there are no monsters except for a piece of lava.

Of course, this is a good thing.

But this also means that the deep area has undergone changes again, and the information has become outdated and has lost its reference value.

"Well, once we find her we'll know how she survived."

The half-dragon Garl's tone no longer had the dejection he had before setting off.

The two worst possibilities—parasitic trees and tentacle nests—have been ruled out.

In his opinion, the possibility of the princess surviving with a healthy mind was much greater than he had previously expected.

Well, it increased from about 2% to 20%.

The tone of the work is still light-hearted, and the protagonist will not really be made to suffer everywhere. It is just that the logic of the subsequent plot requires a small defeat here.
