This dungeon has mushrooms growing on it.

Chapter 185. Revenge
Five floors, a mushroom forest.

Standing a full three meters tall, covered in scales and then encased in a thick rock armor, and even capable of spewing poisonous mist, the heavily armored Puji makes a dazzling entrance with 50 points of stamina and 30 points of strength!

It's worth mentioning that, in order to save skills, the Rock Armor is obtained by eating other fat otaku Puji [Rock Eater], and then the Rock Armor is removed.

Of course, this process inevitably involves peeling off a layer of mycelium from this fat otaku, but it can recover anyway, so it's not a big problem.

Among the various branch options for Heavy Armor Puji, Lin Jun first ruled out the [Mushroom Cannon].

The main problem is that there are too many supporting skills, the equipment cost is too high, and the attribute requirements are biased towards intelligence, which is really not in line with the positioning of the heavy armor Puji.

【Hallucinogenic Spores】are relatively more suitable, at least they are not restricted by attributes.

Actually, the most suitable one should be [Self-Destruct] - the higher the stamina attribute, the stronger the self-destruct power.

But... these heavily armored pukei are used as meat shields.

Behind him are all his own damage dealers; if he self-destructs, the entire screen will probably be filled with friendly fire.

The reason why this heavily armored Poki spawned on the fifth floor, rather than in the deeper areas, is because...

It's because Lin Jun needed Xiao Hei's help to test the defense. This heavily armored Puji wasn't equipped with [Magic Resistance LV6] but rather [Physical Resistance LV7].

"Little Black, wake up, don't sleep."

"Woo..."

In a room filled with silver scales, Little Black's head popped out from a pile of glass beads.

It took her a while to realize that it was her boss calling her.

I tried very carefully to pull my body out of the pile of glass beads, but even though I moved very gently, I still heard two crisp "click" sounds.

Holding up the two shattered beads, Xiao Hei's mood visibly plummeted.

Lin Jun was speechless for a moment.

Ever since he collected so many glass beads that they filled the room, Xiao Hei has been doing this every morning.

Normally, she'll calm down after being sad for a while, but Lin Jun is waiting for her test today, so...

"Little Black, come help me out, and I'll give you a ruby ​​when we're done!"

Xiao Hei immediately stopped being sad, and the brightness of its golden pupils increased by three points!

gem!

She knew that it was even more beautiful and sparkly than glass beads!
Just like the pair of earrings hanging on the scales of her tail!
Unfortunately, gemstones are much harder to find than glass beads; usually, only the boss has them.

Although she stopped crying, Xiao Hei still buried the two broken glass beads in a small pit next to her mushroom house with a heavy heart before hurriedly following Lin Jun's instructions to come to the small open space.

The heavily armored man, Pūjī, was twice the height of Xiao Hei. Standing together, it seemed he could kick Xiao Hei away with a single kick.

"Little Black, hit it!"

"Dapji?" Little Black was confused.

Although she loves to eat pooji, she never hits them—pooji are too fragile and will break if touched with even a little force.

"Yes, hit this little poopy in front of you hard, and I'll give you a ruby!"

Little Black was confused, but the boss said that if you put force into it, it will sparkle, so she obediently raised her not-so-small paw and arched her body.

Lin Jun was quite confident; in terms of defense alone, this Puji was even stronger than the Knight.

After all, considering the need for flexibility, the knight didn't put a layer of rock armor on his body.

This layer of rock armor is no ordinary stone. It is the rock armor produced by [Rock Eater LV8]. It has extremely high density and strong defense. Combined with its own scales and resistance, it can withstand the onslaught of Lin Jun's own mushroom cannon for a long time.

Even with Xiao Hei's full-force attack, he should be able to take a few punches!
A black shadow flashed by.

BOOM! ...
The three-meter-tall heavy armor, along with its indestructible rock armor, exploded without warning, as if its interior had been filled with explosives and detonated!
Smoke and dust filled the air, and pebbles and fragments rained down, shattering into pieces that could never be pieced back together. "Ah... um... you didn't have to use so much force..."

This time it was Lin Jun's turn to cry.

No, is my strongest defense really that vulnerable?

Is level 60 really that powerful?
Little Black stood amidst a pile of broken pieces, its two paws crumpled into a ball.

"Can you give me a gem?"

“Give, give, give…”

A little black cat pulled out a crystal-clear ruby, and the little black cat happily stretched out its paw and carried the cat and the ruby ​​back to its den.

Lin Jun noticed that a black scale on the back of her paw was slightly crooked, and a little bit of blood was seeping out from nearby.

Pulling open the panel, I could see that I had indeed lost a few drops of health, although it was immediately restored to full.

So... it was barely destroyed by a full-force attack?
I feel a little better.

After all, these are high-cost units, and if they get instantly killed like trash, then all the magic power would be wasted!
……

In the deep zone, just as the 20 heavily armored Pojis that Lin Jun had painstakingly crafted landed, good news came from the front lines.

"Boss! I... our army has been defeated!"

The dusty and disheveled piglet, along with the remaining hundred or so poop-like creatures, fled back to the front-line base, which was the former snake den.

Behind them, the fierce pursuit force of the Qis was in hot pursuit.

However, the snake pit had been completely transformed by then.

Under the relentless and frantic transformation by the Puji, this originally winding and narrow natural maze has been turned into a death fortress.

The narrow passageway was reinforced in layers and filled with concealed firing ports for mushroom cannons and deadly crossfire points.

The passageway is riddled with self-destructing pukei buried beneath the floor, while hallucinogenic pukei that release toxic fumes are hidden in the ceiling.

With the help of the hundred Puji already stationed in the fortress, Louisa managed to hold off the pursuing Keith using the fortifications, and repelled the force after reinforcements arrived.

"Old...boss..."

The defeated general Louisa lowered her head and knelt obediently on the ground, while behind her were five heavily armored Poji that had rushed to her aid.

Lin Jun didn't make things difficult for the little pig; this time it really wasn't her fault.

While the expedition was fighting the ragtag monsters in the cave, Keith's troops suddenly emerged from a passage at the rear, catching the expedition off guard.

This time, it wasn't a single type of soldier that came, but a mixed force centered around the Evil Eye. In addition to the known beetles and six-clawed creatures, Lin Jun also saw many other types of Qis.

The arrival of the Evil Eye was nothing short of a disaster for the Puji Legion, with cannon fodder Puji being turned into stone in droves.

Louisa attempted a surprise attack, but was held back by the equally fearless Qis troops with their own flesh and blood.

On her closest attempt to succeed, Louisa used the complex terrain and, with the cover of several of her personal guards exploding, managed to tear a bloody path through the enemy lines and advance to within a hundred meters of the Evil Eye!
She condensed the blood of the surrounding Qiss into a purple spear and shot it toward the Evil Eye.

However, the magic shield successfully delayed the attack for a short while, and the fatal blow ultimately only pierced the tip of one of the evil eye's waving tentacles.

The surprise attack failed, and most of the Puji army was killed. Louisa could only lead the remaining troops and flee the battlefield in panic under the pursuit of Qis.

These Qis, having suffered a little loss, couldn't wait to retaliate.

Unbeknownst to them, Lin Jun originally only planned to use 600 combat units to conduct small-scale harassment raids in the deep zone, trying not to affect the expedition team.

Now Keith has directly targeted the expedition team.

In that case, let's go all out on the scale of the war!
