After escaping, Adam confirmed that the other party was not following him and quickly fled towards the teleportation array in Mushroom Village.
When I arrived, I saw Laura and Xia Lulu already waiting here.
Xia Lulu looked at the disgraced Adam and asked amusedly: "Aren't you good at hiding? How did you end up like this?"
Adam could only respond with a wry smile: "We have been discovered, and the opponent is quite strong. Let's go to Mushroom Village first."
But when the three of them stepped onto the teleportation array, there was no reaction.
"It seems we can only walk."
Under the leadership of Adam, the three began to move towards the Mushroom Village.
After listening to Adam's story along the way, they also described what they encountered.
Mary didn't have any problems. The various magic props Jace left behind were enough for her to deal with various things, but she didn't receive any news about Jace.
But Laura told an important piece of news, that is, Luther had been missing for a long time, and the time of his disappearance was the day they were surrounded and suppressed by the guild.
None of the three gained anything. Adam said: "It seems that the only way to find out is to find Fox himself."
"Does that mean we're going to the sixth floor?"
"Yes, there is no other way."
"Looks like it's going to be a long trip."
The three of them also encountered a few lone army ants along the way. This huge ant is extremely powerful and also has a very terrifying acid attack. Even well-made metal armor cannot prevent the corrosion of acid. .
The most terrifying thing is that they will go out in groups. When a group of army ants appears, their destructive power can even be comparable to that of an adult dragon.
Fortunately, these few were probably the remaining ants in the colony that had been defeated by the army or adventurers, and Xia Lulu easily eliminated them.
Adam searched for an army ant and didn't find any crystals, so he didn't waste any more time.
After advancing for a long time, the three finally arrived near the Mushroom Village. As soon as they arrived, they found a large number of army ants attacking the village, and the villagers fought back bravely under the leadership of the village chief.
The three Adam also joined the battle, and with their help, the army ants were quickly eliminated.
"Why are there no troops or adventurers coming?" Laura was a little confused.
"Because they will not pay any fees to the army, and they also had a conflict with the Adventurer's Guild some time ago."
After a few brief greetings with the village chief, Adam asked about the pipeline.
"The pipeline leading to the kingdom is not open yet, but if you want to go to the kingdom, I can send you to the village on the fourth floor."
"Isn't there a mushroom village on the fifth floor?" Xia Lulu didn't know the situation in the dungeon, so she asked.
"There is no normal life on the fifth floor." Adam answered proactively.
"Why?"
"Because it's called a scary world." Laura then replied: "Undead, resentful ghosts, and all kinds of creatures that you would be afraid of will exist here."
"That's right, so the peace-loving mushroom people have no way to survive there." The village chief added.
After knowing the reason, the three people could only accept to go to the fourth floor.
Before leaving, Adam thoughtfully reminded: "The fourth level is a nightmare for female adventurers. If you can't accept it, it's still too late to stop now."
"There's so much nonsense, let's go, time is running out." After hearing Xia Lulu's answer, the three of them entered the pipeline one after another.
After a period of sliding, the three of them had reached the mushroom village on the fourth floor when they came out again.
The village chief here has received the news and has been waiting here in advance, but he is not the only one waiting together.
Next to the village chief was an army ant they had just fought with.
The three of them immediately entered a fighting state.
When the village chief saw this, he quickly stopped him: "Friends, don't panic, it won't hurt you."
After hearing the village chief's words, the three of them could only stop the attack they were about to launch in doubt.
Adam asked: "Village Chief, could you please explain the situation here."
After hearing this, the village chief smiled and said: "It seems that this is the first time for you to come to the fourth floor. My friends, let me introduce to you. This is my pet Honghong."
"Pet?" The three of them were very surprised. They didn't expect that the mushroom people here were so fierce and could tame army ants.
"Yes, this is a unique method of our fourth-level mushroom people." After the village chief said, he pointed to a handful of small mushrooms growing on the heads of the army ants.
"This is a zombie mushroom. We use it to control ants and help us. It is also a new type of mushroom developed by our most beloved Princess Tina."
After speaking, the village chief directed the army ants to perform several actions in order to dispel the concerns of the three people.
Seeing that the other party was indeed telling the truth, the three of them completely let down their guard.
At this time, the village chief smiled and said to the three people: "You are the distinguished friends of the mushroom people. Since you have come to our village, you will naturally receive the most solemn welcome. Please come and enjoy the most unique mushroom feast in our village first. Absolutely It will benefit you immensely.”
The three people could not resist the hospitality and could only follow the village chief to the restaurant.
Along the way they saw a variety of giant insects doing different jobs.
Xia Lulu somewhat understood why Adam said this was a nightmare for female adventurers. It was natural for women to be afraid of insects, not to mention the large number of huge insects.
After entering the restaurant, the village chief clapped his hands, and then one delicious dish after another was served, but what was different from the mushroom feast they had before was that the mushrooms here looked weird in shape.
Xia Lulu picked up a mushroom that looked like a bug and looked at Adam with a strange expression.
Adam didn't know what it was, but fortunately the village chief explained: "This is Cordyceps sinensis, a precious food material formed by fungal parasites. It not only has extremely high nutritional value, but also has a significant effect on improving human body functions." role."
"This is a special dish only provided to distinguished friends. Please enjoy it slowly."
Between the three of you, you look at me and you don’t dare to be the first person.
In the end, it was Adam who took the first bite after being forced by the two ladies.
An extremely delicious taste filled Adam's mouth, and when he swallowed, a warm feeling spread from his belly to his whole body.
Seeing how much Adam was enjoying it, the two ladies took a bite, and then the three of them devoured it.
Every dish is so delicious, and as the village chief said, even Xia Lulu, a vampire, can feel a trace of extremely comfortable warmth after taking it.
Seeing their appearance, the village chief said happily: "Welcome to the fourth floor of the underground city: the insect kingdom."
