This dungeon has mushrooms growing on it.

Chapter 219, Section 218: A Primitive Yet Effective Trap
Don't rush to attack. Neither of these stone statues has any panels on them, so they should be some kind of trap or mechanism.

Wouldn't it be too rigid?
Puji was attacked after crossing the halfway line, but what about outside the halfway line?

With a thought, a cannon fodder was driven to the edge of the platform, right next to the dividing line, and the mushroom cannon charged up and aimed—

boom!
Unfortunately, the mushroom bullet grazed the stone statue despite not being far away, landing on the tightly closed gate behind it without leaving a trace.

The stone statue still started!
The stone statue still held that long staff. Its heavy body took a few steps forward, and the staff swept across with a dull whistling sound. Cannon fodder Puji No. 2 instantly followed in its footsteps.

Lin Jun then had the Puji retreat to the outside of the platform, which was quite a distance away, making the Mushroom Cannon's hit rate low.

When the mushroom cannon grazed the statue's shoulder, breaking off a small piece of rock, the statue was activated once again.

However, unlike the previous two times, this time the two stone statues rushed out together. After crushing the cannon fodder No. 3 with one foot, they did not stop, but instead turned their attention to all the Puji present.

The real battle suddenly erupted!

The puppies were still huddled together when the huge shadow of the stone statue's staff crashed down like a mountain!

In an instant, the swarms of puffs turned into mycelial debris before they could even retaliate, either scattering in the air or sticking to the ground!
Lin Jun urgently ordered the Puji to scatter and counterattack, but the situation was already clearly doomed.

The mushroom cannon only grazed the stone statue, while every time the stone statue swung its terrifying stone club, it was like a giant scythe sweeping across a wheat field, instantly clearing out a large area!

The two stone statues dealt with the main force of the Puji with almost no effort. However, it took a lot more time to chase down the scattered remnants.

When there were no more intact Puji left in the entire area, the stone statue retreated to its original position with heavy steps, the purple light in its eyes slowly fading, and it transformed back into a statue.

Total annihilation, and not just any annihilation, but a complete and irreversible annihilation.

Whether crushed into mushroom cakes by giant feet or shattered into unrepairable fragments by stone sticks, these are beyond the repair capabilities of [mycelial recombination].

However, even though there was no more pooping, Lin Jun still had fungal carpet!
If the fungal carpet can spread there...

The moment the fungal carpet crossed the midline, the statue's eyes lit up with purple light once more.

The flames raged and continued until the entire platform was completely cleared before they retreated.

Tsk!
Although I guessed that I might not be able to cheat my way through by exploiting a bug, I didn't expect the two statues to be so intelligent!
On the third test, it determined that all the Puji present were hostile, and could even accurately identify and eliminate non-individual threats such as the fungal carpet!
It seems like the only option is a direct attack.

But the mushroom cannon can only scrape off some pebbles; it's hard to say how many "puji" it would take to defeat such a large statue.

In short... let's move the troops over first.

……

One by one, the Puji jumped over the rift and returned to the Amethyst Dungeon.

We only need to keep two hundred of them at the Stone Fortress to maintain operations.

All the other Puji headed towards the core.

Not wanting to linger, Lin Jun also brought Xiao Hei along, as she was quite happy to return to the warmer area.

Norris and the pig stayed behind.

Norris is not strong enough to participate in this kind of battle. Even if he were to pilot a Gida, he would probably only be defeated with one or two blows.

Piglet, on the other hand, is part of the Far North Special Operations Team, keeping an eye on the demonic race that might be heading south.

The stone statue's attack power is extremely violent; even a heavily armored person couldn't withstand a single blow from the front, given its size of over ten meters.

They were quite fast, but that was relative to their massive, heavy bodies. In terms of agility alone, Little Black was far superior to the two stone statues.

Lin Jun didn't want to rely on the Puji to slowly grind the stone skin, as that would be too time-consuming, so she simply brought Xiao Hei over to help.

If we really can't beat them, we can just let Little Black run away.

After nearly a day's trek, more than two thousand Puji arrived at the core area, including many heavily armored Puji and elite Puji...

Little Black, who had been sleeping soundly the whole way, wobbled out of the body of a fat, lazy Puji. With Puji pointing and whispering, he finally figured out that the two stone statues opposite him were enemies.

Instead of rushing in headfirst, the advantage of this trigger-based enemy is that it gives you enough time to plan your strategy.

The Puji scattered and took up positions, while the burrowing Puji were busy with pre-battle preparations, some even being taken to the top of the rock by the bat Puji to work.

Lin Jun waited for a long time, almost until Xiao Hei was taking his second nap, before she finally finished making arrangements.

Under Lin Jun's unified control, all the mushrooms, regardless of distance, roared in unison!

More than a thousand magic cannons roared simultaneously, instantly engulfing the two stone statues completely.

Gravel flew everywhere, and dust billowed into the sky!
When the stone statues burst out of the smoke and dust, their bodies were covered with pits and craters. One of the statues even had a piece of its long staff blown off, which was a pleasant surprise.

Unfortunately, once the statues start moving, the accuracy of the Puji in the distance drops sharply, and if you're unlucky, you might even blow up your teammates.

And blocking the front line at the edge of the platform were thirty heavily armored Poji.

They're not here to take a beating, they're here to self-destruct!

The stone statue at the front swept its long staff, like hitting a golf ball, sending four heavily armored creatures flying with a thud. Then it stomped on one of them, turning it into a pile of fungus and pebbles.

However, when it took its second step, it stepped into a trap and its entire foot sank into a large pit.

The heavily armored Poji seized this opportunity, gathered at its feet, and exploded together.

Amidst the deafening explosion, several stone mushroom caps flew out in disarray, one of which flew in a high parabola and directly smashed and killed a volley mushroom that was still waiting in the distance.

The heavy armor's sacrifice was worthwhile. When the smoke cleared, one of the stone giant's feet was blown off, and the other foot was covered in cracks, making it look like it could hardly move.

It wielded a long staff with its upper body, smashing anything that came near. However, Lin Jun didn't need to get close, or even use the mushroom cannon.

On the top of the rock, the burrowing creatures were working hard to sever all connections between a giant excavated rock and the top of the rock.

The rockfall trap is crude but incredibly powerful. Its only drawback is that Lin Jun can't control the timing of its fall well, so restricting the movement of the stone statue below is crucial.

Thanks to the tireless efforts of the burrowing puki, the boulder, which seemed to have been dug out from the top of the rock, finally fell down, along with more than a dozen burrowing puki who had suddenly lost their support.

The stone statue then noticed the boulder and struck out with its stone club...

The boulder crashed down like a mountain, the shockwave sending debris flying everywhere, and the flying debris caused numerous casualties.

But... it worked!

The stone statue that was pressed underneath was no longer moving.

Now, there's only one left, and it'll have to be a head-on confrontation.

"Little black!"
