I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 332 332. Blue Chapter, We Are All Stardust

With Want's mycelium figurines as analysis materials, the mother nest quickly developed a 2.0 version of the swarm that could accurately deal with fungus beasts - each insect had tentacle-like straws on its body, which would suck the soul of a fungus beast when it caught it.

For these insect swarms that are born as weapons of war, as long as there are enough nutrients, they can quickly develop into large armies. Coincidentally, the thing that the mushroom people's fungal city lacks the least is nutrients.

Later on, tall branch nests of the mother nest sprang up one after another. More and more swarms of insects had already pinned down the fungus beasts, and of course, they also seized a lot of strange creations belonging to fungi along the way.

The Zerg are indeed good at killing, but they are not brainless and only know how to kill. In fact, on the contrary, they are incomprehensibly efficient in organizing and planning supplies.

——Whatever they collected, they were all sorted and transported to the mother nest and Lina.

So, the apprentices' job became... harvesting treasures.

Among them are many fungi that do not exist in the outside world, as well as some magical creations that look like mushroom people, and even mushrooms of the four elements except time and space illusion.

There are so many things in here that even they find it difficult to distinguish them. They can only put them together according to the similarity of their magic fluctuations, and wait until they return to have Teacher Ta Ling preside over the distinction.

But there are some things that can be analyzed -

“Is this nutrient solution?”

An apprentice holding a black bucket of liquid said in shock: "Its nutritional value is outrageous, much more exaggerated than the coconut juice of pure white sea coconut!"

Lina took a glance at it after hearing it, and was indeed surprised. According to the comparison chart displayed by the instrument, the known nutrients contained in it are indeed twice as much as the coconut juice of pure white sea coconut.

What is the concept of double?

I guess it would be enough to find a dragon egg, break it and eat it raw.

The apprentice happily held the dusty bucket and said, "Sister Lina, is this considered our harvest?"

Lina nodded: "As long as you can take it."

This is actually a clearly defined benefit. Croa has always believed that if you want people to work hard for him, you must provide them with adequate benefits and treatment. Therefore, when expanding outward, he will not be stingy as long as he can get it.

Hearing this, the young apprentice became even happier: "I'm going to take these to the Earth College to sell them when I get back. Sister Lina, do you know anyone there? Introduce a few to me!"

"Okay." Lina nodded, then looked in a certain direction and asked, "Has the external contact been restored? The swarm has now cleared all the mycelium in the sky."

In the picture on the crystal plate nearby, on an island in the sky made of floating dandelions, an apprentice was quickly building a crystal tower with the help of vine tentacles on his body.

Those crystal towers vaguely formed the pattern of a magic circle, surrounding the sunflower in the middle. The sunflower stretched out its disk and raised its head high, facing a certain place in the sky.

This is its characteristic, a mark engraved in its astral body - it will quickly find the source of the sun it believes in, and then establish a connection with the sun.

"Just a little bit more!" The apprentice in charge of communications felt a little disappointed and a little uneasy.

You know, the sunflower is closely connected to the outside world, and with the help of the dandelion and the crystal tower, it should have been connected long ago.

Even the barriers of the divine realm cannot isolate it.

This also means that there is something here that is interfering with the connection with the outside world. He doesn't know why, but he feels uneasy.

This was an inexplicable feeling, but it lingered in his heart, leaving him no time to continue communicating with Lina, and he threw himself into his busy work.

"Then keep going." Lina didn't care too much. In her opinion, as long as things were moving in a positive direction, that was enough.

There is always enough time anyway.

It was at this moment that the latest news came through her headset.

She immediately turned her attention to the front line - where non-mycelium buildings appeared for the first time.

The scenery over there is completely reflected through the huge crystal slab.

It was a building made entirely of starlight, and its overall shape was an oval. It emitted a pure light under the mycelium environment, but it always gave people an indescribable sense of fear.

When some insect swarms approached the building, they were immediately decomposed by the light emitted from inside and turned into stardust particles that were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

The apprentices on the front line also tried to lead the army of monsters and plants to attack, but any attack would be immediately absorbed as long as it came into contact with the starlight, no matter what element it was.

In general, they would avoid this completely unknown thing and continue their action. Lina and the two apprentices on the front line also thought so.

But when they were about to go around...

The pure starlight suddenly contracted violently, just like a human heart, and in the next second it ejected countless streams of light like water.

"Zi!"

Everything along the way, whether it was mycelium or insect swarms, or the army of magical beasts and magical plants, and even the apprentices, were turned into stardust.

The stardust in the sky danced in the breeze, reflecting the boundless starlight, which seemed to cover the entire world. Everything was shrouded in starlight, beautiful yet extremely cold.

The last scene Lina saw was the apprentice holding the crystal plate being impacted and then turned into stardust. She opened her eyes wide and couldn't even think for a moment.

Those were carefully selected magical beasts and magical plants, plus insect swarms that had been devoured by countless numbers of fungi!

After the daze, she felt a severe dizziness. She took several deep breaths and barely suppressed the urge to faint.

"..."

She held onto the table beside her and managed to stand.

This might be the biggest failure of the entire Reef Island, and the one with the greatest losses. She couldn't imagine how she would go back to face Cloya and the relatives who had lost their companions.

The young apprentice next to him stared blankly at the dimmed crystal plate and didn't even notice that the bucket of nutrient solution had fallen.

The mother nest spoke at the right time: "Please calm down."

It opened its bloody mouth and extended a tentacle from it, which wrapped a tiny spore and transmitted mental fluctuations: "Captain Lina! That is the Titans' Protoss particle machine!"

The apprentice Want, who didn't know what had happened to finally wake up, said in a serious tone: "That was a machine created by the Titans to serve them as puppets. It is said to be a gift from the Star God.

It can transform all life into basic stardust particles and then reassemble them - we, and even all life in this world, have stardust particles in our bodies, and they will all be assimilated by it!"

Lina's eyes suddenly became clear, and she stared at the tiny spore: "Is there any way to shut it down?"

Want did not answer, but only asked: "Have you contacted Master Croa?"

——What this means is that they can’t handle it, so quickly contact Lord Croa to handle it!
"..." Lina opened her mouth and was about to speak, but she only felt a sense of dejection and an inexplicable palpitation.

The mother nest's voice was still extremely calm: "The starlight is shrinking and expanding rapidly, and it is expected to reach our location in one minute."

Faced with such a terrifying force that could decompose them in an instant, the mother nest said calmly: "I can wrap you in the most solid insect eggs and bury you deep underground. I hope it has its limits."

Solid insect eggs immediately appeared on the side, wrapped in nutrient solution that allowed breathing and sustaining life, waiting for Lina and another apprentice to enter.

But Lina refused: "Thank you for your kindness...Want, why is this thing here?"

She sat down and even took the initiative to pour a glass of ice honey wine. She shook the glass, feeling the sweet honey aroma and cool wine smell on her cheeks, and soon she calmed down completely.

Under normal circumstances, she would definitely not drink like this outside, but now that she was about to die, she didn't care about it and simply indulged herself.

"Because the fungi here are endless." Want sighed softly: "Our actions have eliminated too much fungi and we can no longer suppress it, so it started."

"I don't know if I can survive this, but I am going to withdraw my consciousness and fall into a deep sleep."

The flickering light on the spores gradually dimmed, indicating that the consciousness inside was being withdrawn.

Lina watched him leave, muttering to herself:
"I see." "So this is because of the war we started. It seems like we are reaping the fruits of our own actions. Hahaha."

Lina drank the ice honey wine in her hand in one gulp, laughed happily, strode to the window, and saw the clear stardust light mist approaching outside.

To be honest, it is really beautiful, the kind of extremely pure starlight without a trace of pollution, just like the sky she looked up at in the cold wind of the gray desert, it is an eternal and unchanging beauty.

She looked at the scenery for a moment, then quickly walked over to the young apprentice, grabbed him and threw him into the eggs, ignoring his anxious slapping of the eggs.

"You have to stay, you have to tell Lord Croa about the stupid things we did, I hope you can survive..."

After she finished speaking, she nodded to the mother nest, and the insect egg was immediately sent by a huge force deep into the ground, entangled with countless fungi and Zerg mucus.

Then she calmly waited for death to come, holding the small bottle containing the sun's "fire" that she got from Croa.

——"Death" came silently like a gentle breeze, decomposing her and the mother nest into tiny stardust particles.

Only the rainbow light dancing in the small bottle in her arms was not assimilated, like a lone boat drifting in the sea of ​​stars.

……

Outside world, inside the Mage Tower.

"Hmm?" Kloya looked at the platinum-colored mushrooms surrounded by magic patterns, and seemed to feel some familiar fluctuations from it.

The bright and pure light of the stars was reflected in his eyes. With the power of the sunflower, he barely penetrated the shield of the mycelium and finally extended his consciousness into the fungal city.

He stared at it for a long time, and finally determined that what was floating in the Fungal City was a derivative of... "The Rainbow Poetry".

Some of the words on the chapter that had been silent for a long time quietly changed and became words that Cloya could understand and read.

It is a small part of the blue chapter——

"Going back to the more distant starry sky, the more distant universe."

"Cells come from the furnace of the sun."

"Everything, even all life, has star dust."

It was just such a short segment, it wasn't even a complete magic, but just a part of it, but it emitted a kind of terrifying magic that made Kloya feel unbelievable.

Tracing back to the source, or dissociation.

It can expand the stardust power inside living things, and then assimilate them into stardust, turning them into a kind of...

"Material?"

What was shown now was too little, and Cloya could only guess and barely surmise that it was related to a certain "material".

This was indeed a pleasant surprise - I didn't expect to see information related to the blue chapter here, but the price was the annihilation of almost all apprentices and the loss of the seeds of a mother nest.

Even though there were only five apprentices, he felt sad.

They can’t even enter Valhalla!
The treasures obtained in this way always made him feel as if they were obtained by sacrificing his apprentices, not to mention that these five people were the ones he had high hopes for.

"Is there any way to recover?"

As he was thinking, a platinum-colored light suddenly appeared nearby, and Mia slowly walked out riding a golden sheep, obviously in a good mood.

Just in time!

Kloya's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Mia's arm and told her everything. The more Mia listened, the more shocked she became: "Why didn't I know?"

He came to the platinum-colored mushroom, bent down and took a closer look, with a very obvious look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"I didn't know there was such a thing here."

"I told you a long time ago that even the Ark could not collect those chapters... They themselves represent some gifts from fate."

"Just like when I met you, and just like your road was smooth - these are actually the good luck brought by the golden light of the sun."

Miya pointed at the white-gold mushroom and said, "So, do you believe that your good luck is still there?"

Kloya understood what He meant, but shook his head: "Teacher, if it were any other time, I would be happy to try my luck, but I want them to be alive and well."

"I don't feel comfortable leaving it to luck."

Miya wasn't surprised. "Then we have to think of a solution. After all, these things are special and even I don't know about them. The only thing I can confirm for you is... they are still alive."

"That's enough." Kloya thanked: "As long as I know they are still alive, I feel that my efforts are valuable, and it also means that there is a way to save them."

In fact, the only thing he was worried about was that these people no longer existed. If they really did not exist, everything he did would be worthless. Even the most powerful resurrection technique could not revive a dead person without even the remnant of his soul.

Hui Zhihuan blinked and smiled, "I will help you this time. This is an area that even I have never set foot in."

He came in front of Croa, and just when Croa thought that this guy was going to use "contact" to bless him again, Mia's body suddenly became ethereal, and the platinum light compressed again and again, as if the body of the world tree fruit constituted the magic of summoning.

——On the back mountain of Hanjiao Island, the platinum-colored mushrooms trembled slightly, and then suddenly disappeared.

In front of Kloya's eyes, Mia's body turned into an ancient platinum ring with countless strange runes engraved on it.

It emitted a dim but reassuring light, floated up, and landed behind Kloya's head.

At that moment, Kloya seemed to feel that his consciousness was rising up under the wrapping of countless platinum particles. Everything around him no longer had any secrets in his eyes. The magic power that constituted them, the nature of the magic power... all turned into data flowing in his eyes.

Even if he wanted, he could make a wish right now and let the Ring of Glory belong to him forever.

That was a wish that the Ring of Glory could not refuse, and it was also the fundamental reason why it had to stay in that mushroom forever - it originally existed to satisfy the Ark City, and in that eternal Ark all wishes should be fulfilled.

Even if it means making the Ring of Glory his "slave".

"You really trust me." Kloya shook his head helplessly: "If it were anyone else, the temptation brought by this power within reach would probably be irresistible."

The Ring of Glory did not answer, but simply "granted" its ability to analyze and understand things to Kloya, allowing him to see the starlight in the platinum mushroom sky paradise as clearly as possible.

He knew that Croa didn't need extra power, and he didn't want his power to affect Croa, so he was very cautious.

After gaining this ability, the shadow of the Ring of Radiance appeared outside the pupils of his eyes, and he lowered his head to look at the mushroom - through the power of the Ring of Radiance and the power of the Astral Body Engraving Technique.

Now both the "shell" that made up the mushroom and the magic patterns inside it were within his sight. In addition, he felt his own torch floating in the starlight, so he soon discovered some clues.

He frowned slightly and stretched out his hand, pulling with great effort -

Starlight burst out directly from the mushroom, instantly filling his laboratory which was made of solar iron and reinforced with countless magic patterns.

With the power of the Ring of Glory, he finally understood the true meaning of the few words in this blue chapter. It turned out that this was not the tracing and dissociation he understood.

Rather, it is a kind of stimulation, stimulating the stardust power that already exists in living bodies, allowing them to gain powerful strength. It is a terrifying ability that can enable life to achieve constellations.

Therefore, the apprentices, the magical beasts, the magical plants, and even the insect swarms were not really dead, they were just undergoing "evolution."

"..."

He was finally relieved.

I just suddenly felt a little bit stuck. I finally used the power of the Ring of Glory, but it ended like this?
