This dungeon has mushrooms growing on it.

Chapter 17 17. Treasure Chest Room

Logically speaking, Lin Jun felt that his level should not be low, after all, he was level 44!

But why am I always being chased after I get out?

After thinking about it, it seems that in the same environment, it is much more difficult for me to survive than for the adventurers.

Not only will monsters eat him, but humans will also be killed if they encounter him.

Moreover, these adventurers obviously have a strategy, otherwise why could they pass through the teleportation array maze smoothly, while I got lost in it?

God knows how many days it has been, but judging from the previous journey, Inanna might have successfully walked out of the maze by now.

Behind the corridor is a teleportation array, behind the teleportation array is a monster, and behind the monster is another branching corridor...

Just like this.

With one shot, the last rot-toothed dog in front of him, which kept barking but dared not move forward, was blasted into pieces, causing it to follow in the footsteps of its companions.

Then choose a corridor and walk through it, and choose a teleportation array halfway or at the end to enter.

Fortunately, the monsters on this floor are not higher than LV40. To be more precise, most of them are between LV20 and LV30.

Even if he was really surrounded, he could always escape by relying on his high dodge and rolling charge.

But it’s not a good idea to continue like this. First, I had a big battle with the adventurers, and now I’ve been lost in the maze for so long, and my magic power is running low.

Simply put, he was starving to death.

And for some reason, the magic power in this layer of air is extremely thin. Even if he wants to take root there, he can't collect much magic power to replenish his consumption.

Decomposing monster corpses is also a way to obtain magic power, but it is too unstable.

Finding monsters is easy. Just enter a teleportation array, and there will most likely be a few monsters behind you. But how do you transport them back?

You can't be a nomadic mushroom, eating wherever you go. If you do that, you won't be able to make up for the energy consumed in growing roots.

I can only try to find a way out, or at least find a magical environment.

Found another teleportation array.

There is no gambler who always loses. He must find a way out!
The green teleportation light lights up.

Oh?
The color is different this time.

tick-

A drop of water fell from the inverted stone cone into the small pool.

This this this this concentration of magic!
Even without spreading the fungal mat, Puji began to slowly recover his magic power just by being in this environment.

It feels like swimming in magic!
No, I have to stay awake. There's a high chance there's a demon after teleporting...

Under the claustrophobic dome, a pool of clear water is surrounded by blue-gray stone walls.

There was not a single monster in the space as far as the eye could see.

However, he saw something that was very unexpected but reasonable to him - a treasure chest.

A treasure chest made of stone but with delicate texture!
Although logically speaking, Lin Jun couldn't figure out who put it there, a dungeon should have a treasure chest to be called a dungeon!

It was confirmed again that this place had no hidden space to hide monsters except for a stone door.

After confirming that it was safe, Lin Jun couldn't wait to close the treasure box.

[Native monsters, refuse to touch the treasure chest]

Similar information, familiar wall of air.

Discrimination and oppression against native monsters are everywhere in this dungeon!
Lin Jun did not give up, but stuck close to the air wall.

Sure enough, not long after—

[Brave man, restrictions lifted]

I originally thought that after the hero gave me the title of [Greed], it was all used up.

I didn't expect that I would use it everywhere after I got here.

Really fragrant!

He jumped up and kicked open the stone cover above, and after landing, he jumped back twice to create some distance for safety.

Nothing happened, it's not a trap.

Now it’s time to see what’s inside!
He took out a blue high-collared cloak.

It was equipment, which was to be expected. However, the size was clearly designed for humans. When draped over Puji, who was only half a man's height, half of it dragged on the ground.

The high collar was pressed into a flat ring by the mushroom cap...

Opening Puji's attribute panel, I found that the original agility of 42 had increased to 47.

It feels very subtle, it seems to be somewhat useful, but not so useful...

Are there any active skills?

If so, how should I use it?

I tried to guide the magic power into the cloak, and there was a blur on both sides. Two Pujis wearing identical cloaks appeared on the left and right. I could control them.

Doppelgänger?

Puji on the right rolled towards the wall under command.

Wave--

Disappeared without a trace like a popped bubble.

Okay, Phantom.

It’s not bad, it’s not bad either. After all, it’s a free gift. Lin Jun is already satisfied with the 5 attributes plus a skill.

I just hope this cloak won’t get too dirty…

The cloak is just an extra bonus, the real treasure is this place full of magic!

From the perspective of magical perception, the place with the strongest magic is the small pool of clear water in the center, and the strong magic in the air is only a small part of the magic that escapes from the pool.

At the same time, drops of magic power continued to drip from the dome into the pool, and no one knew where they came from.

In short, they really found a treasure. If they collected all the magic power here, Lin Jun would even have the confidence to form a large team of 400 Puji!

Then, with a group of bodyguards leading you, why worry about not being able to get out of the dungeon?

Which adventurer dares to cause trouble for me? Who can withstand hundreds of mushroom cannons?
Of course, the space here is too small to accommodate 400 Puji.

Lin Jun looked at the only stone door, wondering where was outside and whether there was any space to store Puji?

I pushed the stone door gently, but it didn't move at all.

I increased the force, but it still didn't move.

Rolling Charge!

Lin Jun, who was knocked dizzy, was a little dumbfounded when he saw the stone door in front of him, in which not a single piece of stone had been broken.

What do you mean, this door can’t be opened?

Or is it that this door cannot be opened from this side?

What should I do if I fall here? Wait for someone to open the door from the other side?
After thinking about it, Lin Jun decided to look around again.

This is one of the traps in the teleportation maze. Other people must have come in before.

Maybe we can find some mechanism or clues left by our predecessors.

Soon he made a discovery. Although he didn't find any clues left by his predecessors, he found his predecessors...

A half-buried skeleton was dug out from the grass. No one knew how long it had been dead, and the leather clothes it was wearing were tattered.

Looking at this skeleton, Lin Jun seemed to see his own future...

But I am a mushroom, so as long as there are magic drops on the dome, I will not starve to death.

Just make the best of it and be optimistic.

It just so happened that the various dangers along the way also made him physically and mentally exhausted.

There is food and drink here, so just treat it as a vacation.

Maybe there are a lot of people nearby, and this room might be discovered one day.

Or maybe if we gather dozens of Puji together, we can blast open this stone door.

Super Puji stretched out its tentacles from under the mushroom cap, took out Lin Jun's body, a seemingly ordinary mushroom, and placed it beside the pool.

The spores slowly spread out, and in the rich magical power, the mycelium rapidly multiplied.
