Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

【Name: Shocker Society Badge - Living Siege】

[Quality: S-grade]

[Maximum number of people: 20]

[Synergy Effect: When activated, all players with this synergy must be at full energy. Upon activation, all players share all energy to summon a [Fungus Giant Soul]. The Giant Soul cannot move but possesses an extremely long range, continuously hurling giant spore bombs at a designated target area, causing widespread explosive damage at the impact point and creating a corrosive zone that lasts for 30 seconds (enemies within the zone continuously suffer corrosive damage and are slowed and have their defense reduced).]

[Activation Requirements: At least 5 players must simultaneously equip and activate this badge. When 5 players are active, the [Soul of the Forest Giant] lasts for 30 seconds, dealing 25000 siege damage per throw (damage is doubled against buildings, shields, and barriers). For each additional active player, the Soul of the Giant's duration increases by 10 seconds, and the damage per throw increases by 5000, up to a maximum of 180 seconds and 100000 siege damage per throw.]

When the attributes of the Warrior's Badge were shared in the guild channel, everyone gasped in astonishment, and then erupted in a huge cheer!

This item is extremely valuable and will greatly benefit the upcoming six-race upgrade war!

Moreover, the appearance of this thing proves that Liu Nian's previous guess was correct. There is more than one type of this bond badge; there may be many different kinds!

-------------

Shortly after the three elite monsters fell, the entire cave suddenly began to shake violently.

The luminescent mycelium hanging from the cave ceiling shone brightly, its original soft blue-white color turning into a dangerous crimson.

"Back off! The BOSS is coming out!" Wu Zhan immediately shouted a warning.

The players quickly retreated, forming a semi-circle.

In the center of the cave, at a certain point on the root of the enormous ancient luminous fungus, visibly began to wriggle, bulge, and grow...

The crimson mycelium also fell down like living snakes, entwining and coalescing with it, eventually forming a colossal creature ten meters high, composed of countless luminous mycelium and hard tubercles.

【Ancient Guardian - Fungi Leader LV.30 (Regional BOSS)】

It has no distinct facial features, but in the center of its torso is a massive core that beats like a heart and emits a blinding red light. Its arms are two thick, spiked fungal whips that whistle through the air with each swing.

Although it looked terrifying, there were several experienced players with levels over 40 present to support the team. The main tank steadily held aggro, the healers methodically healed the boss, the DPS delivered perfect burst damage, and Liu Nian was at the forefront, capable of both tanking and dealing damage... Unsurprisingly, the boss was defeated in about fifteen minutes.

The giant fungus let out a mournful cry, its massive body shattering into countless glowing spores that filled the air.

"We got it!"

The guild channel erupted in enthusiastic cheers once again.

A flash of light, and a large amount of loot burst out from the BOSS's dissipating body, covering the ground.

Wu Zhan led his men forward to collect the loot, sharing the attributes of each dropped item in the chat channel.

The most eye-catching item is a Mythic set piece of equipment—

【Name: Breath of Nature (1/8)】

[Type: Protective Gear (Breastplate)]

[Quality: Myth]

[Level requirement: Level 30, Strength 500]

【property:

+1500 Health Points

+180 Magic Resistance

+5% All Attribute Resistance

Set bonus (1/8):

(6) Set bonus: For each friendly unit within 30 yards, your health regeneration rate is increased by 2%, up to a maximum of 10 stacks.

(8) Set Bonus: Gain the skill [Natural Healing]. When activated, for 8 seconds, 50% of the damage you take will be converted into healing, evenly distributed among all friendly units within 20 meters. Cooldown: 5 minutes.

Mythical Set!

Although it's just one piece, its attributes and enticing set effects have already made tank players extremely envious.

In addition to this mythical equipment, the BOSS also dropped several epic equipment pieces, a large amount of high-level materials, and a fist-sized blue fungal core radiating rich life energy.

【Name: Active sclerotium of the ancient bioluminescent giant fungus】

[Type: Special Building Seed]

[Quality: Myth]

[How to use: Can be planted in your own city or guild territory.]

[Effect 1, Life Aura: Within a 5000-meter radius centered on the giant fungus, the maximum health of all friendly units is increased by 10%, and their health regeneration speed is increased by 50%.]

[Effect 2, Tranquil Spores: Friendly units within a 5000-meter radius recover a small amount of energy per second and ignore mind control effects such as "Fear" and "Confusion".]

[Effect 3, Fungal Beast Protection: Within a 5000-meter radius of the Giant Fungus, all players with the Fungal Man synergy have their health and damage increased by 20%.]

"Good stuff!" A glint flashed in Wu Zhan's eyes.

These special buildings are very useful in siege warfare.

After cleaning up the BOSS's loot, everyone's attention turned to the giant fungus!

Although it has lost its guardian BOSS and no longer emits an aggressive red light, and although it still stands majestically, it is basically equivalent to the "BOSS treasure chest" after defeating the BOSS.

Under Wu Zhan's command, the team members carefully followed the giant fungus's thick roots and found an entrance that could be passed through.

Upon entering, one discovers that its hollow structure is filled with honeycomb-like holes, each of which quietly nurtures an unborn mushroom-man.

Wu Zhan felt that this thing could not be removed for the time being. It was the spawn point of the fungus tribe. If it was removed, the fungus would stop spawning. What would happen to the bond badge then?

Therefore, we shouldn't do things that kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Preserving it means that this tribe will continue to "refresh" new fungus people in the future, becoming a stable source of bond badges and experience for the guild.

Of course, their journey inside wasn't entirely fruitless; they eventually discovered a map and coordinates in one of the larger chambers.

It turned out to be a map showing the distribution of the three fungus tribes on the first floor, as well as the coordinates for the second underground floor leading to the Underdark.

I wonder if, as Mekkatorque previously suggested, there exists a kingdom of fungus people beneath this place.

Wu Zhan was quite interested in these kinds of intelligence materials, so he immediately accepted the map and led his men away.

The group rested on the spot and began to count and distribute the spoils of war.

Ordinary monsters drop mostly basic and high-quality equipment and materials, which are registered and stored by logistics personnel and then distributed according to contribution.

The epic equipment and materials dropped by the three elite monsters and the BOSS will be distributed among the team members who participated in the battle and meet the level requirements by rolling points according to their needs.

The [Breath of Nature] breastplate was a bit too high a level for Liu Nian to wear, so he simply didn't choose it and instead asked for two decent skill books.
