This dungeon has mushrooms growing on it.

Chapter 47 47. It Wasn't Intentional

Although the demonic tide has subsided, the impact it brought is far from over.

The fifth floor is now in ruins after being ravaged by the demonic tide.

A third of the trees in the forest had been set on fire by burning beetles, and their charred trunks lay strewn in the cracked soil.

One third of the trees were knocked down and trampled by the giant monsters. These thirty-meter-tall trees were uprooted, and the trunks were covered with claw marks and footprints.

The forest area has shrunk by nearly 70%, and the tree canopy that originally blocked out the sun has now exposed a large area of ​​fluorescent dome.

However, fallen trees can be used as breeding grounds for mycelium, which Lin Jun can accept.

The poisonous fog lake is more miserable.

The three-headed snake, covered in poison, crossed half of the fifth layer, leaving dark green poisonous scabs along the way. No grass grew wherever it passed - and the Poison Mist Lake happened to be on this path.

Perhaps it would be more accurate to call it Lake Venom now.

In the deep green lake water, all native species no longer exist, only piles of dead fish and shrimps float to the shore and stink.

The poisonous water eroded the surrounding soil, and no vegetation could grow nearby, including Lin Jun's mushrooms.

He does have toxin resistance, but it's only level 4.

The spores that were tried to be spread disappeared in an instant and were completely unable to withstand such a strong poison.

But this is not a complete dead end.

A small dragon beast that looked like a scaly salamander moved in.

[Race: Dragon Beast-Mirachi]

[Racial Talent: Diaphragm (The entire body is protected by a diaphragm inside and out)]

To be honest, Lin Jun wasn't quite sure how a diaphragm could completely block the effects of venom, but they did.

In addition, it has a certain degree of poison resistance, so it is now living well in the venom lake.

It's a pity that racial talents cannot be taken away, otherwise it would be quite interesting to wrap a diaphragm around Puji.

However, Lin Jun felt that these Mirajis would not exist for long.

Now they fill their stomachs with dead fish and shrimps by the lake, but they will eventually run out of food.

The original ecology of the lake had long been destroyed by the venom.

That means we'll be out of food soon.

If they run out of food, they will probably die out naturally.

However, they have the [Scale Armor] skill, so maybe you could consider keeping them?

I just don't know if they eat mushrooms.

Lakes and forests are the areas that have been most severely damaged.

As for the cave, it was purely Lin Jun who blew it up himself, and re-excavating it will be a long project.

The only area on the fifth floor that hasn't changed much is the swamp area.

Although Lin Jun's fungal mat in the swamp area was completely crushed, the environment itself did not change much. In fact, due to the accumulation of corpses, the concentration of magic power in the swamp became higher.

It is one of the few good news after the demon tide.

Compared to the ground, the fungal carpet on the dome can be said to be completely intact.

Even if it was a flying monster, no one in the demon tide would come and waste time destroying the mushrooms on the dome.

Now, the caps of the mushrooms on the dome are shaking gently.

The spores that had been accumulated for a long time were scattered out one after another, and the entire fifth floor was covered with light blue and gray spore snow.

Although the wandering monsters have not been completely cleared out, the remaining numbers can no longer cause too much damage. It is time to restore the mushroom garden to life.

On the fungal carpet next to the ruins of Dylan's hut.

A brand new Puji was born, and Lin Jun had special expectations for it.

Puji, who had finally matured, twisted his body, disconnected from the fungal blanket, and stood up in high spirits.

A pair of claws picked it up, and then the dragon man bit it off.

"How does it feel?" Lin Jun asked.

When the dragon man took a bite, he couldn't bite through all the mycelium and had to tear it apart before he could eat it.

The dragon man chewed the mycelium repeatedly before finally swallowing it.

"This one is delicious, I love it!"

Just like it, this is a spicy strip with a specially optimized taste!

In addition to [Magic Storage LV6], this Puji also increased [Toughness LV5]. "Then when you're done eating, go help me kill some monsters. I'll give you a few more like this when you come back."

The dragon man nodded while chewing. After the battle, there was food to eat, just like before.

But before, I could only eat those big lizards and smelly rats with hard meat, but now I can eat soft and chewy large mushrooms!
She was satisfied.

"By the way, do you have a name?"

In fact, Lin Jun had wanted to ask this question for a long time.

Through the panel, Lin Jun can see everyone's name, but there is no name column on this dragon man's panel.

I'm not sure if she doesn't have a name or if there's some special reason why I can't see it.

Logically speaking, it should have a name.

The dragon woman can speak, but her pronunciation is very strange. Lin Jun can only tell that she is not speaking human language.

I seriously doubt it's dragon language.

If we have language and can communicate, then we should have names.

Unexpectedly, the dragon man chewed the mycelium in his mouth and shook his head and said:
"No name, Dalong said. The weak ones don't have names."

Ah this...

Lin Jun felt that he probably didn't deserve to have a name.

"Who is Dalong? Is he the super scary dragon from the other day?"

When the dragon was mentioned, the dragon man shuddered subconsciously.

"No, that's mom. Dalong is much smaller than mom."

It really is the dragon’s cub!
But thinking about her behavior that day, why are you so afraid of your mother?

Could it be a menopausal woman?

As for the "big dragon", it sounds like another dragon.

Are there a lot of dragons and dragon people living together over there?

"What do they call you then?"

"Svirgis."

"So your name is Svirgis, isn't it?"

The dragon man continued to shake his head: "No, all the weak ones are Svirgis."

Wow, it turns out to be a general term. Lin Jun understood.

He had already imagined a cruel dragon society where weaklings were discriminated against and didn't even have names, and were only worthy of being called "inferior people" or something like that.

However, even though the dragon person has no name, I can't always call her "you you you" right?

Using Svirgis also feels weird.

"How about I give you a name?"

Unexpectedly, the dragon man heard this and shook his head firmly, saying, "Become stronger and you will have a name!"

It turns out that you don’t care about my name. You are still a dragon man with dreams.

There was no other way, Lin Jun could only settle for second best.

"But I have to call you something. The word Svirgis doesn't refer to you alone. It feels awkward to use and it's too difficult to pronounce.

How about I call you 'Xiao Hei'?
I’m not giving you a name, I’m just calling you that.”

It’s not that Lin Jun has no taste and only uses words like Xiaohei and Xiaobai, it’s mainly because this is not a name.

It's just a temporary name anyway, so there's no need to spend too much time thinking about it.

The dragon man tilted his head and thought about it, and didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with it, so he nodded in agreement.

After agreeing on the name, the spicy strips Puji were finally eaten - the added [toughness] made it much more durable.

Xiao Hei stretched out on all fours, then excitedly went to beat the monster as Lin Jun requested.

Lin Jun discovered that there seemed to be an extra line on her panel?
[Name: Xiao Hei]

[Race: Dragon Man]

……

Feel sorry!

I should think about it seriously!
Didn’t they say it doesn’t count as naming? What the hell is this mechanism?!
