Chapter 504 Explanation (4K)

"The Mushroom King's abilities include, but are not limited to, high-speed movement, self-healing, clone creation, mushroom bombs, spore infection, and hallucination."

Wanli Fengdao spoke at a speed comparable to a rapper or an American auctioneer, explaining all the information he knew: "Be especially careful, the air is full of tiny spores that are invisible to the naked eye, which will enter the lungs with each breath and take root and sprout."

"It is recommended to use energy attacks, especially those with the incineration attribute, to clear the spores."

As they spoke, the battle intensified.

The white horse tombstone stopped moving at high speed. Her skin was scratched with numerous fine wounds. Some fungal spores that could withstand the high temperature burrowed into the wounds, nourished themselves with blood and flesh, and grew into dense, tiny mushrooms—which, in appearance, resembled those of the Agaricales order and the Microhypophyceae family.

These mushrooms grow at a rather peculiar angle, with their roots inside wounds and their caps exposed outside.

Even if the blue flames surrounding the white horse tombstone burn the canopy to ashes, the roots inside can still draw nutrients and grow back.

clang!
She clashed her fists together, the chains that served as gauntlets making a crisp sound, and two streams of purple flames erupted, surging across her body and penetrating her wounds to clear away the fungal hyphae.

Unlike the blue flames, the purple flames were completely harmless to the tombstone. The tombstone's skin curled up and peeled, and the wounds sizzled and burned. Before a large amount of blood could drip to the ground, it was evaporated and vaporized by the flames.

The King of Mushrooms wouldn't miss such a perfect opportunity. It charged forward and then abruptly stopped, its two cleavers slashing horizontally towards the white horse's tombstone.

tread.

The white horse tombstone stepped on the ground, but instead of using it to jump, it twisted its waist to the extreme, like a gymnast, and squeezed through the gap between the two machetes.

At the same time, loosen your grip slightly, extend the iron chain of the gauntlet, and give it a strong shake so that the iron chain wraps around the mushroom king's arms.

Hadouken!
The white horse tombstone trembled, and the power of the vibrations spread along the iron chains toward the mushroom king.

The latter's strong arm trembled violently, and the tight muscle fibers made of hyphae gradually tore apart, exploding with a "bang".

Its arms, along with two machetes, flew into the air. The mushroom king itself was oblivious, feeling no pain, but with just a glance, the mushrooms that had taken up residence in the tree canopy "came to life."

It transformed into a smaller, eyed mushroom-man, leaped from the canopy, grabbed two machetes, and fell again, seamlessly connecting to the shoulder section of the Mushroom King, becoming a new arm of a different color.

"."

White Horse Tombstone's eyelids twitched violently. The scripted missions issued from the killing field were difficult, but at least they were tailor-made for the chosen one's individual conditions.
There will be no extreme situation where someone "enters the Cthulhu world, fully embodying an ancient alien creature seven feet tall with a barrel-shaped body, five pairs of wings, and five sets of tentacles, and is tasked with killing an evil god single-handedly."

The types of NPCs and BOSSes in the scenario missions are all ones that players have seen or heard of.

The situation is completely different for non-human players in other worlds. Who knows what their planetary environment, evolutionary process, anatomical structure, physiological mechanisms, or technological path of civilization are?
Therefore, it is impossible to predict using common sense and intuition of humankind.

The white horse tombstone exhaled a breath of stale air and threw two punches at Claudia and Reyes not far away.

The blue flames, like a dragon's sudden attack, engulfed the two human players—Tombstone Sister's control over her punches was impeccable; the power of the blue flames was just enough to burn away the tiny mushrooms growing on their bodies and incinerate the spores filling the surrounding air, without causing any physical damage to the two players.
They both knew there were fungal spores in the air, so from the start of the battle, they slowed their breathing rate, using blood magic to oxygenate their bodies or breathing with the help of oxygen tanks.

Claudia glanced gratefully at the white horse's tombstone, seized the moment when lightning struck, and teleported three hundred meters behind the griffin. Her red short leather boots stomped on the ground, revealing a magic circle pattern.

Nine blood-red rays of light extended from the magic array, slithering towards the griffin that was bursting with lightning. Just as the griffin tried to flap its wings and fly away, the rays of light suddenly shot up and wrapped around the griffin's entire body.

".etc,"

Wanli Fengdao, who was still explaining, suddenly narrowed his eyes and stretched out his palm, "No!"

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Blood Magic: Frost Covered in Blood.

The icy chill traveled along the blood-red light towards the griffin. A strange smile appeared on the griffin's eagle-headed face as it neither dodged nor evaded, taking the blow head-on.

The blood magic failed to freeze the griffin's blood; instead, it seemed to have hit an invisible wall, returning along the path of the bloody light.

【Item Name: Lotus Jewel】

[Type: Ritual Implement]

[Quality: perfect]

[Special Effect: Echoing Shield. Applies a shield to the target for 6 seconds. During this time, any magical spells cast on this unit will be mirrored back to the original caster.]

[Cost: 200 Spirit Points]

[Cooling time: 1 hours]

[Eligibility requirements: Previously ranked in the top 5% and passed the unified entrance examination for Master's programs in Law]

[Note: The shield can only be activated once and does not have a recognition function; it reflects both debuffs and buffs. When facing large-area spells, it can only reflect the area that the shield touches.]

[Note: Bounce, bounce, bounce away those crow's feet wrinkles]

Claudia immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly switched back to bat form, taking the full force of the Frostblood spell.

Fortunately, the specific effect of Frost Covering Blood is to significantly reduce the target's overall blood temperature, and bats are small, have little blood, and high body temperature.

After the blood temperature in the body drops below 0°C, it urgently switches back to a larger human form to reduce the impact.

Even so, Claudia's body was still covered with a thick layer of frost and snow, with tiny icicles hanging below her nose, and her petite body was shivering from the cold.

Trembling, she tore open an expensive spell scroll and used a barrage of tracking fireballs to temporarily repel the griffin. Then, without turning her head, she shouted at Wanli Fengdao, "Can you tell me the information quickly? Hurry up!"

"I'm not Wang Yuyan! I've already done my best!"

Wanli Fengdao was also furious, his eyes rolling wildly, but he still obediently continued his explanation, "The Griffin is a Lv28 elemental manipulation spellcaster, especially skilled in controlling thunder and gales."

Zheng!
The griffin flicked out a dozen or so feathers, piercing the area around the location of the Thousand-Mile Sealing Blade. Each feather crackled with electricity, cutting through the air and emitting a hissing noise that blocked sound transmission.

Gray Rain acted decisively; the liquid metal's legs, as if stretched by a filter, continuously lengthened, lifting high the glass container containing the Myriad Miles Sealing Blade.

This allowed him to bypass the surface thunderstorm noise layer and continue his commentary, "Be careful of that rabbit-like demi-human. Its ranged shooting is just a disguise; it's equally formidable in close combat. Don't be fooled."

"cut."

Rabbit Ranger clicked her tongue in annoyance. She had just deliberately pretended that her arrow reserves were running low and that her bow strength was getting weaker, just to make Reyes think that there was an opportunity to close the distance and then deliver a fatal blow.

The glass container containing the Wanli Sealing Blade is indestructible, but the gray rain holding the container may not be.

The Rabbit Ranger moved with agility, easily passing through the encirclement of hundreds of tattooed beasts. He leaped high onto the back of a tiger, and fired a series of dense light arrows from his recurve bow like a machine gun.

Reyes urgently summoned a large number of tattooed beasts to block the first wave of light arrows, while he himself was pulled backward by the tattooed ropes to avoid the subsequent attacks.

Rabbit Ranger turned its fire on Gray Rain, who was holding up a glass container.

Her beams of light possess both energy erosion and physical explosive power, capable of both striking ghosts and demolishing fortifications.

That lump of metal slime isn't even a player; they can't handle it at all.

Whoosh— A dozen or so light arrows shot towards him. Gray Rain's eyes widened, he took a deep breath, and his head suddenly split open, forming a hollow circle, perfectly avoiding all the arrows.

"Uh?"

Rabbit Ranger paused for a moment, then fired a row of vertical light arrows in disbelief, but Gray Rain split its body in half again, perfectly dodging the attack.

"That's it?"

Gray Rain returned to normal, and raised his chin provocatively, "Melody with a wild imagination, Abe no Abe with a broad mind, the loyal but unpleasant-sounding King, Charlie Kirk with flowers on his neck."

Of the four, only Trump survived the gunfire, demonstrating that evasion is more effective than defense.

"I don't understand what you're talking about."

Rabbit Ranger wasn't even an Earthling, so naturally he wouldn't understand what Gray Rain was talking about. He immediately took out a simple wooden arrow from his backpack and nocked it on the bowstring made of light.

Zheng!
The Rabbit Ranger's bow-drawing motion was barely visible; all that could be heard was the sonic boom of the arrow breaking the sound barrier.

At such speed, Gray Rain had no time to split her body to dodge. She made a quick decision and activated the [Spiritual Assault] skill, plunging her legs into the ground and using the liquid metal to contract, thus reducing her height.

The simple wooden arrow struck the surface of the glass container heavily, shattering it into hundreds of wooden fragments on the spot, with an explosive force comparable to that of a heavy artillery piece.

Gray Rain called out, "Uncle, are you alright?"

".fine,"

Wanli Fengdao, inside the container, braced his hands against the inner glass wall. Most of the impact was absorbed by the glass prison, and he was not seriously injured. His face was ashen as he said, "I just have severe tinnitus and see stars."

Gray Rain was taken aback. "Huh? Uncle, you support LGBT?"

"It's the idiom 'seeing stars in one's eyes'! Not that transgender dancer Jin Xing."

Wanli Fengdao's eyelids twitched violently. "Watch out!"

Another wooden arrow came hurtling towards him, but Gray Rain was prepared. A liquid metal arm extended from his chest, gripping the skull-crushing power hammer, and simultaneously activated the optimization effect of [Silver Wing Light Path].

By forcibly enhancing the visual resolution, high-speed imaging, and automatic tracking capabilities of the mechanical lifeform, it locks onto the trajectory of the wooden arrow and smashes it in mid-air with a single blow.

In the blink of an eye, a dozen wooden arrows, accompanied by sonic booms, arrived. Gray Rain took a deep breath, gathering all his energy in front of him.
Destroy the death ray!

The beam of light engulfed all the wooden arrows, and its remaining force swept towards the Rabbit Ranger.

The latter tried its best to dodge, but was still caught by the beam of light, which burned off a large tuft of rabbit fur on the outside of its thigh.

"It really is a female rabbit."

Gray Rain looked at Rabbit Ranger's thigh curves, rubbed his chin, and said thoughtfully, "My ant took me to a nightclub to broaden my horizons in order to teach me the chicken-and-rabbit problem."

"The Rabbit God is a rabbit too, right?"

Wanli Fengdao subconsciously remarked, "This ant is quite something."

As a senior member of the second batch of chosen ones, Wanli Fengdao first heard the name "Ant" from reports related to the London incident.

However, he didn't make a fuss like the young people on the forum.

Geniuses are one in tens of millions of people, provided they can survive.

He's seen it all before: "The strongest newcomer in history, opening a Lv10 treasure chest and getting the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame + Twin Martial Souls."

"A born Jedi Knight's Holy Body? A Canadian newbie with an off-the-charts Fibrosis Index has been admitted to Prometheus without taking the entrance exam and will enjoy P12 treatment."

"[HLTV]: There will be times when the wind and waves will be strong, and the sails will be hoisted to cross the vast ocean! Lv5 received the Hindu goddess of the Himalayas's legacy and immediately received offers from 15 major guilds!"

Regardless of how much exaggeration and hype is in these promotions, there are countless so-called geniuses, but a significant portion of them will quietly disappear into the tides of time.

They might die in a daze during a scripted mission, or be precisely assassinated by hostile forces.

Even after surviving one hurdle after another and becoming a Lv30 powerhouse and a pillar of the guild, continuing to climb towards the summit, there's still a chance of dying in some hidden corner, not even managing to preserve one's body.
A jumble of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Wanli Fengdao came back to his senses. He saw the Mushroom King and the Rabbit Ranger simultaneously and tacitly shifting the battlefield, creating distance to make room for the Griffin.

"The griffin is about to unleash its ultimate attack!"

Wanli Fengdao's seasoned experience allowed him to immediately sense the anomaly, and he shouted a warning: "Don't let her finish casting her skill!"

The white horse tombstone reacted quickly, punching back the mushroom king, and was about to open the stone coffin to release its future self.

However, the mushroom king gave it no chance, its cap vigorously catalyzing spore bombs that filled the space around the coffin.

The same logic applied to Rabbit Ranger; she also activated an Overload skill, single-handedly holding off both Claudia and Reyes, keeping them firmly in place.
They watched helplessly as the griffin soared into the sky, its eyes flashing with lightning, its wings whipping up a raging storm.

These players from another world worked in perfect unison. The Rabbit Ranger fired a barrage of rockets at the storm, while the Fungus King controlled the entire parasitized jungle, spewing out oily fungal spores.

The rocket ignited the spores, and the storm transformed into a fire tornado, crackling with raging lightning. Every second, the storm grew and expanded by one size.

"Hey, girl."

Seeing this, Wanli Fengdao calmed down and said to Huiyu in a deep voice, "These players from another world cooperate perfectly, and their power systems work seamlessly together. You can't handle them."

Find an opportunity to leave the killing field and report this situation to the GOC.

Wanli Fengdao has already settled down in the real world, and even has children with his catgirl pet.

He had made preparations long ago, not wanting to deceive himself like Whale Song or other guild superhumans by creating a personality AI backup or clone to live in his place.

To die is to die.

Before each mission, he would deposit all his savings with the Yin City Special Affairs Bureau, with whom he had the best relationship and the longest cooperation, trusting that the latter would take good care of his surviving family.
Tear!

A rift suddenly tore open in the midst of the incredibly violent thunder and fire tornado.

The dark duel ended, and the enormous body of the centipede octopus squeezed out from the spatial rift.

The griffin flapped its wings and soared high, slightly raising the position of the fire tornado to avoid accidentally injuring its teammates.

However, as the spatial rift expanded further, the centipede's massive body returned intact, with a hideous scar across its head, its two eyes missing, and blue blood continuously flowing from their sockets.

A kilometer away, Li Sheng casually jumped out of the rift, holding one octopus eyeball in each hand, like a cheerleader pom-pom.

"Play cards with me? Back when I won 3700 million with 20 yuan, you didn't even know where you were."

Li Sheng shook his head and chuckled. He turned his head and saw Wanli Fengdao, who was not particularly handsome. He immediately exclaimed, "Holy crap, Reyes, how did you get beaten up like this! These otherworldly players are really inhuman."
