I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 331 331. Mother Nest, Swarm

To be fair, these "dishes" tasted delicious - if their origins could be ignored.

Want watched his companions eat, and couldn't help but mutter: "These are things that the fungus race has tasted and accumulated over the generations, but I don't know why these mushrooms can be perfectly reproduced."

Companions: "..."

In fact, they didn't really care whether they should know the origin of these foods. A world like this is very strange in itself. If the origins of some things are really traced back, it may be unacceptable.

Fortunately, after being angrily stared at by his companions for a while, the little mushroom man that Want transformed into also reacted and smiled awkwardly: "I mean this special feast mycelium can be used in different places."

This finally worked a little. While chewing the fungus that was almost the same as a chicken leg, Lina thought: "Can the nutrition keep up? What kind of conditions does this mycelium need to grow?"

If a big meal can really be grown on the spot, it will be good whether it is sold as a specialty or used as logistical supplies for the army, not to mention that this thing has a high research value.

If it can be mass-produced in the real world, the group of students at the Earth College will definitely join in crazily for such a topic - they are even studying artificial insemination of breeding pigs now.

Want replied: "Mushrooms are very nutritious. I can see a lot of fiber in them. The feeling of fullness should be very good... As for the growth conditions, it seems that only simple fungal nutrient solution is needed to grow."

As he said this, he stretched out his hand and waved it. Immediately, a huge mushroom grew into a cup, which was filled with a full light white liquid, and seemed to be constantly squirming.

To be honest, it looked quite weird. Fungi are such things... Sometimes they are really weird. There is no natural vitality that plants should have. Instead, it looks like some mutated monster.

In such a special environment, Lina and others could not distinguish the magic structure of these things. They could only feel the twisted and tyrannical vitality inside. It was simply... like a mammoth tiger was beaten into juice and still alive.

Lina was immediately shocked by her own thoughts, "Can we take this thing back? According to your authority, what is it made of?"

"I haven't figured it out yet. I feel that I need to go back and conduct a careful inspection and analysis."

The mushroom man scratched his hair with his hand: "According to the rules here, if you can pass the ceremony and come to me, you can wish for something."

"But you have to finish eating these things before you can proceed to the next step!"

"What are you talking about? We have already eaten!"

Lina immediately gave an order-the apprentices brought a group of feather pigs with them. Those feather pigs gracefully and quickly summoned feathers with the magic of the wind element, lifted the food to their mouths and ate it.

They almost didn't need to move, they just needed to lie on the feather bed formed by the wind element, wait for the food to be delivered to their mouths and then enjoy the food.

The large amount of food that the apprentices couldn't finish just now was eaten up by them at a rapid speed, and they didn't last for half an hour at all.

After the pleasant meal, Wonte did not delay and started the second welcome ceremony directly-

A huge, flowing river appeared in front of them, and the things in the river... turned out to be clear water.

This was actually very abnormal. They had not seen water for so long since they came here. Only the drinks just now were water. How could water suddenly appear?

They instinctively felt that something was wrong, and they were already a little distrustful of this place.

"What is now in front of you is the second welcome ceremony. In the inheritance of the mushroom people... it is a test of the degree of matching with the elements."

Wonte was actually a little uncertain, because according to the information he saw in the core center where countless hyphae gathered here, it was not a test, but... fusion.

But the final effect was indeed able to test the sensitivity of the perception of various elements, so he felt very strange, and always felt that his thoughts seemed to be affected.

He himself did not realize that his thoughts were gradually developing in the direction of the mushroom people. But Lina remembered Kloya's warning, so she carefully found a group of magic crystal mice to try it first.

"Let the Magic Crystal White Mouse Team try out the magic structure of these liquids first."

"Okay."

The crystal clear white mice, chirping and jumping happily, came directly to the river and jumped in with a "thump thump".

At first, they were still swimming leisurely in the river, but after a while, their bodies were pulled by an invisible force, and their flesh and organs were gently and quickly decomposed by the hyphae.

-This scene is very strange.

The fur and flesh of the cheerful Magic Crystal White Mouse were washed by the river, but they were still alive, and even flowed along the river to the deepest part of the Fungus City.

Imagine that a person's skin, flesh, internal organs and bone marrow were decomposed, but he was still alive and could even communicate with you...

The female apprentice who was responsible for taking care of these white mice looked very bad and said aloud: "My contract with them has not been broken. They are now flowing in the river... No, the fungal river, and they are about to converge into the fungal ocean."

At this moment, she simply felt creepy. The contract split into different strands, but still maintained her thoughts and vitality, which made her deeply doubt that these magic crystal mice were still the ones she usually fed. Approval?

If she wasn't here with a trusted partner by her side, her first reaction would definitely be to leave, because this place is far beyond her ability to understand.

Knowledge does need to be gained by exploring the unknown, but if it is all unknown and without any clues, exploration is meaningless.

When she described her guess and the apprentices looked at each other in horror and horror, the change happened again——

"Please enter the river."

"Please enter the river."

"Please enter the river."

Some fungi sprouted up on the ground like bamboo shoots after a rain, forcing them to move towards the river, and sending out cold and hard mental waves.

This meant that each of them had been on guard, so they did not fall directly into the river. If they had relaxed just a little bit, they would have fallen in long ago if they were pushed by the hyphae from behind.

But even so, they couldn't help but said angrily:

"What?"

"Are these things alive?"

"Want, did you do this? You want to be beaten, right?"

Lina's first reaction when she stabilized her body was to directly grab the mycelium villain Want who was gradually dissolving. Then she took out the chain that Croya had personally blessed from her pocket and tied it tightly. Reality.

"You better calm down."

She said: "There is something wrong with you now. You need to remember that you are a human being and you are Lord Croya's apprentice - these identities are before the city lord of this fungus city!"

"If you are swallowed by the consciousness of these fungi, your wife will be snatched away by someone else, and your newborn son will not only have to call another person father, but he will also be beaten by him!"

As soon as these words came out, the face of the little man who was bound by the golden chains suddenly showed a look of horror.

"Absolutely not!"

Wante trembled, obviously sobering up.

Lena was satisfied with her mental magic attack.

A subtle expression appeared on her face: "Does your memory say that if a visiting guest directly calls in... what will happen?"

She thought that if the current situation continued with the myconid's hospitality ritual, some strange things would probably happen.

More importantly, she thinks this is a ceremony to meet the Lord of Fungus City. Will Want really become the Lord of Fungus City in the process?

Lord Croya's warning was still echoing in her heart: It was a good thing for the myconids, but for them, and for humans... it was really not a good outcome.

So she decisively decided to take violent measures and control the initiative on her side. No matter what, the situation could not be worse than the current situation.

Anyway, they originally planned to go all the way in. Compared to slowly decrypting it, they felt that it would be faster and more cost-effective to go in.

"Well..."

Want, who was scolded by her, struggled hard to get out his consciousness that had been assimilated by the fungus.

Then he replied: "Myconids admire strong power. If you can fight all the way here, you should be able to get higher standards of treatment..."

Before he finished speaking, the four apprentices headed by Lina had already taken out the standard battle mage robes and staffs from their pockets. Their hands were full of rings like nouveau riche, and they even kept one. Pocket watch shaped force guide.

"Didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I've long been unhappy with these fungi!"

"Why waste time when you can fight."

Not far away, the monsters and monster plants also received orders and lined up, with the immortal city wall potatoes as the first echelon, followed by some small trees growing with red peppers, corn-shaped cannonballs, and vines that emitted electric energy... …

Needless to say, they had already started spraying a powerful offensive in front of them. Various elemental bullets, flame ice cones and other powers directly overwhelmed the fungus forest.

Want, who was far away in the core center, inexplicably felt an angry consciousness rising in his mind - these people, "he" obviously gave them the highest level of courtesy, why did they still attack!

The light of the golden and azure potions flickering in his soul still existed, emitting a chill that was enough to sting his soul.

Anger and bone-chilling coldness surrounded him, which actually made him more awake. He finally realized that there was still something left here that was gradually eroding him!

After realizing this, he took the initiative to wrap the chain around himself tighter, even cutting it deeply into his flesh, and then jumped into Lina's pocket and stayed there obediently.

He knew very well that the current situation was beyond his control, and the only thing he could do was not to cause trouble.

Without the intervention of his consciousness, the fungus forest came to life directly.

One after another, the fungus beasts rushed over crazily. They all still carried the consciousness and combat experience left when the myconids created them, and began to bite the army of magic plants and magic beasts.

Because they had almost indestructible bodies and a steady stream of aid, they almost overwhelmingly suppressed the armies of monsters and monsters.

Even though these magic plants and magic beasts were carefully cultivated and were the best in their respective positions, they were beaten back step by step and had only the strength to defend.

Even so, there were still apprentices assisting in casting spells around them, using ordinary magic while using the magic contained in the guide device to help.

This was an extremely rare situation. You should know that the magic beast and magic plant army did not lose to the elite knights of the Church.

The more this happened, the calmer the apprentices became. They began to set up some magic circles for amplification on the spot.

Lina hesitated again and again, took out a half-human-high giant egg from her pocket, and then pierced her finger to drip blood on it.

——This is the final means that all pioneering teams have. There is a seal set by Kloya himself that can only be unlocked by the blood of the team leader.

If it weren't really urgent now, she wouldn't use this.

After dripping the blood, the magic seal on the surface of the giant egg gradually dissipated and quickly broke the shell.

A worker bee slowly crawled out and turned around on the ground for a few circles.

Then its body suddenly sprayed out mucus, wrapping it up completely. Not long after, a miniature mother nest was born.

The larvae around the mother nest quickly hatched into more worker bees, and the worker bees directly dug up the mycelium around and transported all of them to fill the mother nest.

They were really cold and efficient. In just half an hour, the light gray fungal carpet belonging to the mother nest gradually covered the mycelium on the ground.

Then more mother nests, splitting pools, towers and other buildings rose from the ground. These buildings contracted and breathed as if they had their own lives, and continuously passed the essence after digestion to the mother nest.

Lina watched from the side as teams of hoppers, hydralisks, flying dragons, cockroaches and other alien insects emerged from the eggs around the mother nest. Each of them looked very strange and ferocious.

But they were comparable to the most disciplined human army, and there was almost no error of one centimeter when they lined up - this weird feeling made Lina feel instinctively afraid.

Even her fear of them was greater than that of the fungus beasts.

Even though these alien insects were her allies, even though her blood had soaked the alien insects' mother nest, and she could clearly feel the heartbeat rhythm of the mother nest, she still felt fear.

The mother nest also discovered this, it gently contracted, the keratin shell dripped with sticky liquid, and made an elegant and graceful female voice:

"Don't worry."

"My master."

It sent several half-human-high springtails to Lina's surroundings. These guys with sharp teeth and sharp claws, and even wings like locusts, used their heads to butt Lina.

That was the only weakness of their bodies, covered by thick keratin shells, but through their hard keratin shells, they transmitted abundant warmth, which was continuously transmitted to Lina - the apprentice who was a little afraid just now seemed to be no longer afraid.

Compared with humans, or monsters... the feelings of these alien insects are particularly clear, and they like them. It reminded her of the little fellow she had raised at home who had accompanied her for several years. It was either a monster or an ordinary puppy.

"You guys are really... love-brained?"

She remembered what Kloya had said, and suddenly felt very appropriate. Aren't dogs love-brained? They only love their masters wholeheartedly, want to be close to them, and want to accompany them.

The springtail looked up at her in confusion, and had to carefully retract its sharp wings and fangs, fearing that it would hurt this overly fragile human.

This scene made Lina's heart palpitate. After thinking for a while, she took out a treasure given to her by Kloya from the deepest part of her pocket - it was a sunflower-shaped badge.

The crystal clear crystal wrapped one rotating note after another, and they intertwined and entangled like a movement on a score.

She slowly walked towards the nest, stood in front of the tall nest and raised the sunflower badge: "Eat it, and then help us win."

"You..." The nest was a little moved, but it did not hesitate at all. A worker bee carefully took the sunflower badge and entered the nest.

As a nest of war, it can't survive for long. Its only goal is to quickly complete the task assigned to it by the summoner while it is still alive.

The whole nest trembled fiercely. It couldn't completely control the music wrapped in the crystal. It could only go with the flow. Soon, it created several "angels" with feather wings, a muscular body, and a dog-like head through the music.

They flapped their wings and played the harp made of cuticle and flesh in their hands, leading the swarm of insects, and directly inserted into the battlefield like an arrow from a string.

——Among them, of course, there are also the few springtails that used their heads to push Lina just now, or it can be said that the light shining on them is the brightest, and the hideous appearance looks sacred and majestic under the halo.

And then... nothing happened.

Lina clearly saw the two Zerglings that rushed into the herd of fungus beasts first being beaten up. Even though they were blessed with various sacred magics, they could not withstand the beating.

They died quickly, killing thousands of fungus beasts before they died. Their bodies fell into a muddy mass of fungus and flesh, and they could no longer be distinguished after a few seconds.

"..."Lina clenched her hands slightly.

The mother nest still made a very calm voice:

"Don't feel bad for them, this is our fate."

But even if it said so, Lina still felt a lump in her chest. She hesitated for a moment and took out the shivering Wonte from her pocket.

"Is it okay if your body dies?" Her tone was filled with rising murderous intent.

"...No, no problem." Wonte tried to shrink.

Before Wonte finished speaking, Lina threw him to the mother nest: "He is a life that is closely related to the mycelium here, you analyze him!"

The mother nest silently opened its bloody mouth and caught Wonte.

Even the calm mother nest knew that it was best not to say anything now, otherwise it would definitely be unlucky.
