Chapter 525 The Purpose of Fungi

??? "What is this place?"

The dark environment, as well as the emotion of fear, still surrounds its head. It is an Atlan. Before, it received a mission from Maya to go to the core of the fungal area to observe the situation. yan()

However, when it reached the edge of a fungal jungle, it was caught by a group of skeletons.

At the same time that its armor is taken off, it thinks its life will dissipate.

But it found that it survived, and it is a miracle that it can survive in direct contact with the air full of bacterial dust in such a place.

However, this miracle may not necessarily be a good thing for it...

"Ugh..." Atlan is now being dragged and moved on the ground, with a lot of 'ropes' tied around it, this thing is made of tough mycelium.

And dragging it was a group of skeletons, which made strange noises while dragging it quickly.

There are a lot of mushrooms growing on both sides of it, as well as other strange fungal structures, all of which means that it is deep in the fungal jungle, and the special place is that the diffuse dust here does not seem to be infectious.

Although they permeate the air, they do not grow as they fall on Atlan.

However, the large amount of dust still made it impossible to cough.

'cough! ’ And when it coughed for the first time, the skeletons stopped suddenly, threw it on the spot and ran away.

"Strange?" Because the skeleton let go, the mycelium on Atlan also loosened. He stood up and looked around, and found that there was nothing around, it was still a dense jungle, and the skeletons didn't know where they went.

"Is it safe?"

Atlan felt very strange about this situation, but it did not act rashly, but walked cautiously in the direction of the coming and going.

It didn't take long for the skeleton to drag it into the jungle, so it felt that it could get out of the way, and the armor that was taken off should still be on the edge of the jungle. As long as you find the armor...

What is this?

Suddenly, Atlan found a strange thing on the side of the 'road' it was dragged over,

There should be no such thing when I came here before.

This thing looks like a hemispherical object with an entrance on the surface. It looks like a small house.

However, it is constructed entirely of a fungal carpet-like structure, soft to the touch and dusty to the touch.

Although it is very dangerous to stay here for a long time, I don't know why. When Atlan saw this fungus hut, he had an idea to go inside.

This thought was so strong that it...involuntarily... walked into the 'door' of the house.

"There's nothing in here?" After entering the house, Atlan found that it was very empty and there was nothing suspicious, and the emotion he had just dissipated, and then Atlan continued to walk on it. The route being dragged over.

"What the hell is going on here?"

And it only walked for a while, only to find that the road ahead disappeared.

The skeleton had been dragging it into the depths along a forest path just now, which should logically lead all the way to the edge of the jungle, but now it's gone.

Is it covered by something?

Atlan took a close look at the fungi growing at the end of the road, and they didn't look any different from the surrounding mushrooms. It doesn't look like it just grew out.

All in all, it's lost again.

If you walk directly into the jungle now, you may lose your way again... What should I do?

correct.

Atlan suddenly remembered that there was a communication device in the pocket of his clothes. Although the skeletons stripped his armor, they did not take off all his clothes.

Atlan took out this little device that could locate the armor's position from this thing, so that...

And the moment Atlan was about to press the device, the thing went 'Crack! ' exploded with a bang, turning into pieces and spilling on the ground.

"What?" Atlan was shocked, thinking that the device had been blown up by something. It hurriedly looked around, but couldn't see the creature that attacked it...

However, the panic made Atlan feel that he could not stay here any longer, and he left the road under his feet. ran into the jungle.

It doesn't care if it gets lost or not, Atlan is running wild in the jungle, it keeps squeezing away those soft fungal structures, and keeps running...

The running lasted for a long time, because Atlan has received a lot of combat training, and Atlan is very stamina. So it also ran for a long time...it didn't stop until it felt exhausted.

"This is... I came out?"

Atlan was surprised to find that the jungle in front of him did not continue to spread, it ran to the edge of the jungle, and the scenery in front of him once again turned into a vast carpet of fungi, but... there were no giant umbrella mushrooms on this plain.

Moreover, there are many ups and downs like hills on the carpet, which is obviously not the place where it came in, but another place.

"What exactly is here..."

Just when Atlan was wondering, it suddenly saw a creature appearing in front of him. This creature was a beetle, just above the hill in front of him.

Atlan subconsciously wanted to touch the weapon on his body, but it only remembered that he had no weapon, and then he quickly stepped back and planned to walk back to the jungle, but at this time the beetle said... words.

"You came here, and you really came here."

"What?" Atlan was surprised that the limb-only beetle could speak Atlan's language, and the beetle suddenly ran in front of him from there.

"You must have a lot of questions," Beetle said to Atlan. "Anyway, you can participate in our plan. We have a very large operation."

"Action?" The moment Atlan's question was uttered, there was a 'boom' sound in front of it, and a raised hill suddenly exploded, and in the smoke and dust of the explosion, appeared a huge creature.

"This is... a troll?"

This creature is about three meters high, which is the same height as a normal troll in Atlan, not as terrifying as the previous 30 meters.

However, its appearance is very similar to that of the 30-meter one. Mycelium-like structures grow all over its body. There are protrusions and lumps made of fungi all over its body, which are obviously infected by fungi.

'boom! ’ At this time, the surrounding hills also exploded, and in each exploding hill, one or more giant monsters appeared, swaying their bodies and slowly walking towards the direction of Atlan.

Atlan tried to run, but it found that its legs couldn't move, not because of fear... but because its body seemed to resist such action.

"We're making these things," Beetle said to Atlan. "We've made a lot. They don't do much, but you do a lot."

The beetle stretched out its front limbs and pointed to Atlan's head: "They don't have a mind, you still have a mind, and you can build all kinds of things for us."

"Build... something?"

Atlan's question was quickly answered, and the beetle suddenly spread its wings and flew in front of it, poking its head slightly, Atlan suddenly felt a picture in his mind.

There is an empty fungal plain in this picture, and in the plain, there is a huge object.

This object is a block...a mechanical block. It is more than 50 meters high, but it is a semi-finished product. From the side, you can see that various complex metal parts are exposed.

Next to this block, there are a large number of Atlan, they are carrying various metals and assembling them on this block.

"Could it be that... those were Atlan who got infected by eating bugs..."

Seeing this picture, Atlan understood, plus what Maya had said before, it knew what was going on now...

These fungi infect them with such a purpose.

Because infected trolls and skeletons have little intelligence, they want to directly control the intact Atlan.

That's why they deliberately release those easy-to-catch beetles for them to eat and then infect them.

Infected Atlans will involuntarily gather in this place, and the fungus does this in order for these Atlans to help them assemble machinery, like that huge block.

That kind of block is the brain spirit block. Maybe these fungus beetles have found some brain spirit technology in the underground base here, but they will not use it, so they plan to control Atlan to help them make machinery.

Because Atlan still has this technology, but they currently lack materials, and most of the bases are within the scope of the fungal area.

But without this limitation, they should be able to find enough material to make the aircraft.

Although it seems that what the fungus wants to make is not a common aircraft, but a block of brain spirit.

What did they make this thing for? Could it be that... do they want to leave this world and infect other worlds?

Atlan had only one thought in his mind.

If fungi go to another multicellular world, they might make that world the same as this...

And Atlan also found that he had some problems. It started when he entered the fungus hut involuntarily at first. It seemed to be following the route set by these fungi, and finally came to this place.

While it's true that he hadn't eaten the beetles, he felt he was being controlled too.

"You are sober." Beetle continued pointing at Atlan's head: "You are free."

Saying it, he pointed to Atlan's leg and said, "But it's not free."

"You can command them with this characteristic," said the beetle. "You will help us construct those things... This way, we can complete the 'mission'." (To be continued.)
