I cultivate mushrooms in warhammer

After being knocked unconscious by a tranquilizer dart, Li Nuo was enveloped in darkness.

He didn't know how long had passed, but he faintly heard some sounds.

Shouts, the hum of electricity, the whirring of a saw, and an ear-piercing noise like tinnitus.

Accompanying these sounds, his body became incredibly cold, and a very faint light appeared in his vision.

This experience was very unique, vaguely making Li Nuo feel that there was something both bright and cold hovering around him.

Whenever this thing approached, the coldness and light would intensify, but the light beams could never completely break through the darkness before him, only scattering starlight-like brilliance, as if looking up at the Milky Way from the bottom of the sea.

The cold thing appeared and disappeared again and again.

Li Nuo suddenly realized that the darkness in front of him seemed to be the "black veil" he had seen before.

He used his appraisal skill to check, and it was indeed so.

Knowing that the black veil was some kind of subspace entity, the cold and bright thing hovering outside the black veil must also be a subspace entity.

Li Nuo inexplicably had a thought:

Crap, could that be the Emperor?

Isn't his subspace essence a cold and bright cold sun?

This thought filled Li Nuo with fear and confusion.

Why would the Emperor observe him?

Could it be that he was attracted by the ghost mushroom incident and had been paying attention to the movements of Hive-Epiemetes, and just happened to notice his situation?

Hiss—it seems there is really such a possibility.

Li Nuo felt his hair stand on end, but he couldn't wake up.

Every time he felt the cold thing hovering around him, the drowsiness that followed would engulf his consciousness, causing him to fall asleep again.

After repeating this several or dozens of times, Li Nuo finally woke up.

Aching and tingling sensations ran rampant in his body, making him feel both pain and itching, and darkness that couldn't be dispelled still filled his vision.

Li Nuo widened his eyes, searching for light, and opened his mouth to roar with all his might.

But strangely, even with all his strength, he couldn't make a sound.

Li Nuo couldn't help but ask himself:

Am I alive or dead?

Why is his brain active, but he can't feel the surrounding environment?

What exactly is wrong with him?

He could hear all kinds of noises before, but now it was as silent as if he were in a vacuum.

After an unknown amount of time passed, the aching and tingling in his body began to subside.

At the same time, Li Nuo felt a warm airflow brushing over his body, and fresh air entered his nostrils.

"Am I...still alive?"

Li Nuo uttered a few syllables in a low, hoarse tone.

His throat was difficult to operate, as if it was rusty, and pronunciation was difficult, but he did it.

"Yes, you are still alive," a middle-aged male voice sounded in front of him.

Li Nuo looked in the direction of the sound, but there was only darkness there.

"Take off his blindfold and turn on the spotlight."

As the middle-aged man's voice fell, Li Nuo's eyes suddenly lit up, and a strong light pierced his eyes.

Under the strong light, the middle-aged man cast a black silhouette with his hands in his pockets on Li Nuo's retina.

Li Nuo wanted to turn his head to observe his surroundings, but it seemed that there was a neck brace on his neck that restricted his movements, so he could only maintain the posture of facing the spotlight.

"Who are you?"

The state of his throat was recovering, and his pronunciation became fluent, with only a little soreness remaining on his vocal cords.

"I will answer your questions later, now listen to me."

The man took his right hand out of his pocket and pressed the device in his hand.

With a click, a holographic image was projected from the ceiling, showing a half-length portrait composed of green pixels.

"Who is this?"

Li Nuo stared at the half-length portrait, confirming that he had never seen this old man with half of his brain shell cut off.

"He is the leader of the Mending Church, his real name is unknown, his birth is unknown, we only know that his nickname in the Mending Church is 'Forefather'."

The holographic image switched, and this time the half-length portrait presented was Li Nuo's acquaintance—Robnos.

The middle-aged man said:

"Eight months ago, Robnos was still a doctor and mycelial walker at the Apothecary Association. After completing a collection mission in the Underhive, he carried the 'roots' of the ghost mushroom back to the Midhive."

"Seven months ago, he claimed that he had invented several formulas based on the psychic properties of the ghost mushroom and made potions and tobacco that could awaken psychic powers."

"Six months ago, several Upperhive families extended olive branches to Robnos. Robnos chose the Kramm family with the most generous treatment and became a senior executive at the Kramm Pharmaceutical Factory. From then on, ghost potions and mutation incidents caused by ghost potions began to appear in the Upperhive."

"Twenty-five days ago, you killed two cultists near the Kramm Cigarette Factory. When confronting Robnos, you were stunned by a tranquilizer dart fired by my men."

"Twenty days ago, the interrogation of Robnos ended. We harvested the expected answer."

"Robnos was captured alive by 'Forefather' during an exploration of the Underhive eight months ago. In order to survive, he chose to submit to 'Forefather'. 'Forefather' provided him with the ghost mushroom and the ghost potion formula, and Robnos became 'Forefather's' spy, stuffing pseudo-parent bodies into the industries of Upperhive nobles."

The middle-aged man paused, explaining:

"The so-called pseudo-parent body refers to a psychic modification creation of the Mending Church. They can reproduce themselves and nurture pseudo-offspring..."

The middle-aged man explained the nouns related to the Mending Church.

Li Nuo already knew about this.

The focus of his attention now was the "twenty-five days ago" that the other party had just mentioned.

If he didn't misunderstand, has he been in a coma for twenty-five days?!

Li Nuo tried to remain calm, listening to the middle-aged man's words while silently reciting "System Interface" in his mind.

After a faint and ethereal prompt sound, the system interface popped up.

Li Nuo breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, fortunately, the cheat is still there.

The middle-aged man pressed the device in his hand, and the holographic image switched to a wealthy old man wearing gorgeous clothes.

This man wore layers of colorful knitted clothing, was wide and fat, and used gold glittering sashes, rings, and brooches as embellishments, with a kind and amiable demeanor.

Li Nuo recalled it and recognized the origin of this person:

"Lord Foggus?"

"Yes, this is our Governor, Lord Foggus. I am under the command of the Governor to come to the Underhive to closely monitor the Mending Church and secretly hunt down cultists."

Li Nuo thought for a moment and frowned and asked:

"So, you are interrogating me? But I am not a cultist. Also, why did you make me sleep for twenty-five days before interrogating me?"

"There is my reason for letting you be in a coma for twenty-five days. I have answered your question, now it is my turn to ask questions."

The man resumed the posture of putting his hands in his pockets and said in a deep voice:

"Do you want to spend your whole life being mediocre in the Underhive, or swear allegiance to a leader, and build a ladder to ascend to the Upperhive, or even embrace the stars with sweat and blood?"

Li Nuo was silent for a long time, knowing in his heart that the other party should be persuading him to serve Lord Foggus.

But how can a small Underhive person like him get the attention of the Governor?

What's more, after experiencing Robnos's bewitchment, Li Nuo developed resistance to this kind of empty talk that puts "loyalty" and "sacrifice" on his lips, and will no longer easily believe promises and authority.

The middle-aged man tilted his head slightly and said to someone in the darkness:

"Untie him."

"Clang, clang..."

The metal sleeve was released from its restraints, and the mechanical arm moved them away from Li Nuo.

Li Nuo felt his body loosen, and his neck and limbs were no longer restricted from moving.

He subconsciously lowered his head to look at his hands, and his pupils shrank slightly.

His palms had become several times larger, and his head was further away from the ground.

Looking at his arms, chest, abdomen, and thighs again, the muscle lines were symmetrical and full, like a sports student who had been precipitating for more than ten years.

If he was a bean sprout twenty-five days ago, then he is now a strong steel cable.

Strong, solid, full of vitality and masculine beauty.

This earth-shattering change left Li Nuo stunned on the spot.

"I...what's wrong with me?"

The middle-aged man walked slowly towards Li Nuo, his outline and facial lines gradually became clear, and Li Nuo saw his face clearly.

"Dean? Amy's father?" Li Nuo recognized the man's identity, it was the Dean of the Underhive Academy—Delton Martz.

Delton had a resolute face like a knife, wearing a large-lapel black windbreaker, a light gray vertical striped shirt, and a burgundy vest.

Middle-aged, with the windbreaker open and his hands in his pockets, his sharpness undiminished.

His eyes were clear and bright, Amy was quite similar to him in this respect, and it could be seen that it was a hereditary symbol between father and daughter.

Delton met Li Nuo's gaze and nodded lightly:

"Yes, you recognized the right person. On the surface, I am the Dean of the Underhive Academy, and my true identity is the head of Lord Foggus's special agents."

"Ambitionists talk about ideals and rewards, and great leaders will put grace into practice. The transformation that happened to you is the reward that Lord Foggus prepaid for you."

"As long as you are loyal to Lord Foggus and assist me in searching the Underhive for cultists, then this reward will not be taken back."

"...Your unique psychic talent will also be protected and endorsed by Lord Foggus."
