The description of [White Lian Mushroom] made Lindsay very concerned.

The secret realm of life in the forest courtyard often produces various plants with magical effects.

And so on.

And where such things are abundant, there is a high probability that it means the existence of a secret realm.

[White mushroom], [Glow-in-the-dark mushroom].

Both are fungi, and Lindsay is bound to win the latter.

Although the current purpose of the fleet is to end the mutation in the forest, Lindsay has not forgotten his goal.

Now that he had a clue, he must immediately go to investigate.

But it was different from Lindsay's plan to act alone.

When Lei Ze heard such a request, he directly denied Lindsay's plan to act alone:

"Drake, you are our important companion."

"No one with any sense would be able to let you explore a dangerous forest alone at this time."

Lindsay will naturally not be persuaded:

"Leize, I have to..."

Lei Ze interrupted Lindsay directly:

"What I'm saying is, Derek, bring a companion with you."

Lindsay looked stunned for a moment, then reiterated immediately:

"This investigation is just based on my personal needs. There is no reason..."

Lei Ze turned directly to everyone in the cabin:

"Drake is going to investigate the situation in the forest. Does anyone want to come with him?"

"..."

"No problem, count me in."

"Me too."

In this way, a simple team of five people was arranged.

Due to her hunting work during the day, Lindsay also knew the situation in the forest, so she acted as the leader.

Less than half an hour.

He took his companions to find [White Mushrooms] growing in the wild, and there were more discoveries one after another.

This mushroom often appears next to rotting trees or dead animals.

Lindsay went up to identify each one, and the results were the same as those that Wayne accidentally ingested, containing toxins affected by the essence.

But just leave [Bai Lian Gu].

There is nothing special about the surrounding trees, weeds, or shrubs, as if only the [White Mushroom] is the most special.

"unreasonable."

"The influence of the essence is not dominated by consciousness, how can it be possible to select a kind of fungus to influence..."

While everyone is watching, identify the sample of [White Lian Mushroom].

Mr. Lindsay thought for a moment and then said:

"Everyone, this kind of mushroom may be related to the secret place in the forest. Don't be careless next time, search carefully around to see their growth and distribution."

"..."

The air suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere in the team was no longer the same.

Everyone's eyes became extremely focused when observing [Bai Liangu], and even their breathing was deliberately suppressed.

——The secret realm of life.

Before setting off, they thought it was just an ordinary exploration.

But when it comes to the secret realm - you must know that the call issued by the Lord of Jiuwan City clearly stated that he was looking for the secret realm.

Currently, only three secret realms of life have been discovered in the entire world of Forest Garden.

If they find a new secret place.

Even if we take a step back, the plan to appease the forest failed.

With this harvest, you can also gain glory and wealth far beyond your imagination!

"Next, let's search separately. If you have any problems, call your companions immediately. Don't deal with it yourself."

Before dispersing the investigation, Lindsay assigned another [explosion explosive] to each person.

"Everyone please be safe while investigating."

"If you are attacked, just light this thing and throw it out. It will make a very loud explosion and noise, and others will know immediately."

"..."

The forest at night is full of ghosts.

A gust of cold wind blows through, sending chills down one's spine.

Lindsay opened the map to confirm the status of his companions, and at the same time continued to search for the existence of [White Lian Mushroom].

But a few hours passed.

The [White Mushroom] discovered has a clear pattern, and it still appears on rotten wood and corpses. Other than that, there are no surprising discoveries.

Wait until everyone returns to the shore to exchange the results of the investigation:

"I looked downstream along the Echo Valley River. It's easier to find this kind of thing on rotten wood and beast carcasses."

"Walking deeper into the forest has the same result."

"There is no difference upstream, and the distribution situation has not changed."

Lindsay asked again:

"Have you discovered any other special plants?"

In response, the companions shook their heads:

"No."

"I do not have either."

"It's too dark at night, why don't we take a look when it gets light?"

"..."

Lindsay frowned.

Based on information provided by others, he concluded:

"Exploring in all directions, the growth conditions of [White Lian Mushroom] are the same, there is no obvious difference in distribution probability, and no other special plants appear..."

Others who gained nothing also echoed:

"That's right, and these things look exactly the same, there are many of them, and they grow everywhere. This...couldn't it be that we made a mistake?"

"Do you really want to keep searching?"

"..."

Exchange opinions with others.

Listening to these conversations, Lindsay focused on one thing.

These [White Mushrooms] really make it difficult to tell how they grow.

But the frequency and distribution are a bit too high compared to ordinary fungi!

"quantity……"

Lindsay murmured under her breath and took steps.

He found a handful of moist soil where [White Lian Mushroom] was growing.

But this time Lindsay didn't pay attention to the wood or animal carcasses. Instead, he took out the shovel from his bag and dug into the soil.

Click——

The sound is small.

But there was indeed the sound of something being shoveled in the soil!

Lindsay pulled out her shovel and brought out a lump of dirt.

There are also some pale white filaments inside the moist soil by the river.

Its texture is very fragile and will break if you pinch it with your hands. You can vaguely discern some filaments connected to each other, forming a network-like structure.

"Is this mycelium?"

Lindsay recognized the filaments immediately.

Mycelium is a fungus that grows underground, and the part that grows out of the ground is called a mushroom.

This life grows underground, intertwining with each other to form a network.

In Lindsay's previous life, mycelium was considered the largest living organism in the world, with a diameter of several kilometers and a coverage area of ​​​​square kilometers!

And in the forest courtyard.

In this world where the power of sefirah exists.

"There must be something special about such a huge life, right?"

Lindsay changed her mind.

Mycelium usually grows underground.

Following this idea, he stretched the map from flat mode to three-dimensional and began to search underground.

Brush——

The image on the map is enlarged as much as possible.

Lindsay also found the growth trajectory of mycelium underground. They are much more exaggerated than the [white mushrooms] on the ground. Where the mycelium is dense, some underground cavities can even be dug out!

Comparing these cavities with mycelium growth trends, Lindsay finally discerned a result.

The further northeast you go, the denser the mycelium is.

"Leize, I think I have a solution."

Lindsay greeted Lei Ze, and the explorer came over and immediately squatted in front of the soil dug by Lindsay:

"In the soil...Drake, is your discovery related to these white things?"

Lindsay nodded and affirmed:

"This thing can be regarded as the root system of [white mushroom] underground. I discovered their growth trend through this thing."

"..."

"The mushroom still has roots?"

Lei Ze reached out and crushed the soil.

In addition to thread-like mycelium, there are also cotton-like clumps inside. This is information that even the explorer does not know:

"I've never heard of such a thing."

Lindsay shrugged:

"The life scholars in Volcano City may have records. It's just that this thing is buried underground and no one usually finds it. I don't know if it is a normal phenomenon."

Lindsay turned around and looked at her companions:

"Anyway, let's go northeast. There should be results this time."

Everyone then set off.

Lindsay also popularized the concept of mycelium on the road.

Lei Ze did not hesitate to record this information in his notes, which was obviously due to the explorer's habit.

At dawn, the five people came to a special terrain.

Below the hill they were facing, the ground formed a huge deep valley that sunk downwards. It was surrounded by lush and towering trees. It was impossible to detect the specialness of this place unless it was from a specific angle.

Looking from a distance now.

It was as if a meteorite fell from the sky and hit the ground diagonally, leaving such a deep track in the end.

The hills on both sides were silent, as if guarding the secrets of this forest.

"..."

It was here that Lindsay's team stopped.

Because in addition to the magnificent scenery, this deep valley is also filled with a lavender poisonous miasma, so thick that it is even impossible to see the scenery 5 meters away!

Gudong——

Someone in the team swallowed.

Soon, there was a helpless and bitter trill:

"A place like this..."

"How do we get in?"
