Chapter 1628 Myconids
The mushroom people were not weaklings who could be slaughtered at will. Even Orday and the other two had to stay on their toes the whole time, fearing that they would be surrounded by the mushroom people.

So, what was the thing that beat the mushroom man?

Aoerdai looked at the traces around him...

I hope it's not a red dragon.

There are still some barely recognizable huts on the huge mushroom cap that looks like a small hill. This thing is most likely the home of the mushroom people, but it has been roasted by flames.

The three of them hesitated for a while, but decided to go over and take a look.

After all, if you can identify what caused the operation, you can be mentally prepared so that you won't be flustered if you encounter it yourself.

When you get close to the huge mushroom cap, you can find a convenient staircase of the same height on one side (although it is also made of mushrooms). Although it has been burned by fire, it is still walkable.

Going up the stairs, you can see more details up close than from a distance where you can only see a charred surface and charcoal.

Many human-shaped mushrooms fell on the cap, some big, some small, some tall, some short, but they had been burned by the flames, and their original colors could no longer be seen, only a charred black color.

This is the mushroom man, but he was burned to death.

However, judging from the posture of the mushroom-man corpse, it didn't look like something had dropped from the sky and attacked. If that were the case, the mushroom-man should have run away.

Now the corpses of the mushroom people were lying all over the place, some running in all directions before dying.

"Perhaps, it's not some powerful monster, but a group of them."

Nemea judged:

"Could it be a hellhound?"

She pointed to the burning coals on the ground and said:

"These look a bit like the footprints of a hellhound."

Cerberus is also an outsider creature, but although it is called a Cerberus, it does not live in the Nine Nether Hell, but in the plane of fire element.

Oh yes, this thing is actually an elemental creature.

"Probably not. Usually, hellhounds appear with lava or fire elements, and there are no traces of fire elements around."

Zora interrupted at this time:
"Could it be that someone has summoned a large number of hellhounds?"

"It's possible, but there isn't enough evidence for now. I didn't see any remnants of summoning spells around here."

The three of them continued to move forward while guessing.

The huge mushroom cap that looked like a small hill was now devoid of any living things, except for the smell of burning and the still smoldering charcoal.

Although fungus people are intelligent creatures, they do not form civilizations like most intelligent creatures. They basically exist in the form of tribes.

Moreover, the mushroom people have no written language, so it is very difficult to find any records related to this group of mushroom people.

Alday hoped to find one or two survivors, preferably half-dead, so that she could find out what had happened.

And then don’t tell me, don’t tell me, they found it.

At the top of the huge mushroom cap, the three saw a large group of mushroom-people corpses huddled together.

It was as if there was some kind of threat that attacked from outside and surrounded the umbrella cap, forcing these mushroom people to flee to the highest point in the center, but they were eventually surrounded and destroyed.

All the corpses had been burned and would crumble to pieces with the slightest touch.

"Come here quickly, there is one who seems to be still alive."

Nimia quickly called the two over and pointed at the bottom of the charred fungus man's body and said:

"I just saw its legs moving."

Zora and Nimia worked together to move the charred fungus-man corpse away, revealing a fungus-man underneath that was not completely burnt, but was also blackened.

This guy's body is bright yellow and looks like a human-shaped indigo. There is a mushroom-like cap on his neck and a twisted head stuck on it.

Its body was half-charred, with the left side almost carbonized, but the right side, most of the torso, and the head were still intact.

Ao Er Dai stretched out her hand and used magic to check in the air:
"This should be the Myconid King."

Fungus people are actually somewhat similar to bees. Each fungus tribe has a fungus king, and their collective consciousness is greater than their individual consciousness.

Generally speaking, the strongest person in a mushroom tribe is definitely the mushroom king, and also the most important. As long as the mushroom king is not dead, the tribe will not be considered destroyed and can be rebuilt.

So at the last moment, a large number of mushroom people protected their king, so he was not completely burned.

"It is indeed still alive, but it is in a dying state."

If an ordinary person suffered such an injury, he would basically be sent to the crematorium, but the body of the mushroom man is made up of mycelium, so even if it is cut in half, it can regenerate.

Alde looked at Zora, who nodded, holding the holy emblem in one hand and gently placing the other hand on the chest of the Myna King:
"Treat serious injuries."

The sacred healing aura penetrated into the body of the Fungus King. Its legs twitched violently, and then a large amount of dark green spores spurted out from the pores under its neck, almost surrounding all three of them.

Nimia's first reaction was to draw her dagger and chop off the mushroom king's head, but Alde immediately stopped her.

"This is Tongnian spores, non-toxic."

Fungus people have no vocal organs and cannot speak, but they can communicate mentally through spores. Whether they are communicating with their companions or outsiders, they can only rely on telepathic spores.

Then, an old voice sounded in the three people's minds.

"Thank you for saving me, Warmbloods."

Alde signaled Zora and Nimya not to be impulsive, and gently pressed on her temples to concentrate.

"who are you?"

"I'm Chacha Buenasca."

This name is really weird.

"What's going on here?"

"Steel! Cold steel!"

Through telepathy, the three of them received the voice of the Fungus King, which contained great anger.

“And it can bring a flame of destruction”

Orday thought about it:
"You mean some kind of machinery?"

"Machinery? Is that what you call steel? I don't know if it is, but that is the steel dug out from the ground."

It is indeed difficult to make the mushroom people understand what machinery is. It can only explain it in a way that it understands.

"They suddenly appeared, floated in the air, and began to burn my people, even the young mycelium was not spared"

"Do you know where they come from?"

"uncertain."

Its voice sounded like a roar, but also like a wail:

"But it could only have come from lava."

This sounds really confusing, what comes from lava?

The Fungus King looked around with his insect-like eyes:
"Warmbloods, you are not like dwarves and dwarves."

"we are not."

Oldie said in her heart:
"We are from the surface."

"The surface of the… earth? The place with the big, vicious fireballs?"

Well, sunlight is indeed a big, vicious ball of fire to them.

Alde didn't want to reveal too much information about herself, so she asked again:
"Can you give us some direction as to where the thing that attacked you came from?"

"Can……"

The Fungus King struggled to sit up and pulled out a piece of mushroom from the unburned part of his body, just like pulling out a board.

Black lines quickly appeared on it, like a map.
