Around nine o'clock in the morning, Lin Bo set up the Spring of Soil's Grace in the Fungus Forest Square. It was a circular stone trough that could continuously seep out clear spring water to accelerate plant growth and irrigate the mycelium. It was better than nothing, but the green creatures liked to gather around the spring and drink it.

Once all the greenskins have passed their infancy, they will be recognized as qualified armed personnel, after all, they learned to swing machetes only an hour after they were born.

The population's military conversion rate exceeds 90%, which has surpassed the category of a fighting race and is now entirely a biological weapon.

The Master's Imagination Furnace is a convenient tool for online gamers. Its shape resembles a giant white-painted bullet, standing upright with an inlet on the side and an outlet at the bottom.

Simply put in the metal raw materials, and it will automatically melt, mix the alloys, and shape the materials into various structural forms according to the user's imagination.

Currently, only a few players on the cross-platform have obtained this limited-edition item, but everyone is already trying to develop the furnace recipe.

If used properly, this furnace could transcend technological generations.

With just a little metal ore, exquisite weapons and equipment can be made. Whether it is swords or guns, they can all be formed in one piece in the furnace. However, due to the size of the furnace, it is impossible to manufacture large-caliber weapons.

For the pioneering period, it was a rare treasure.

Lin Bo simply placed the furnace in the open space. He didn't need it, and neither did the mechanic. The barbarian tried making a few throwing axes for himself, but then didn't pay much attention to them.

The greenskins, however, were having a great time. They shoved scrap metal guns into the furnace opening, put their clever brains to use their imaginations, and then pulled out a hand cannon with a caliber magnified ten times larger from the bottom of the furnace.

They also learned the ingenious method of taking the gunpowder from bullets, shells, and landmines, stuffing it all into the barrel, and then adding a handful of iron shot to make it into shotgun shells.

The giant gun was incredibly powerful, with a higher chance of exploding than successfully firing. It was frequently used for suicide and killing its own kind, which accelerated the spread of the green spores.

Lin Bo instructed these guys to stay far away when they were playing with guns, so that stray bullets wouldn't damage the streetlights.

Around 11 a.m., the mage was practicing magic and studying literature when he heard the roar of a giant beast in the distance. The earthquake last night had terrified the overlords of the rainforest. With the rapid expansion of the fungal carpet, it had invaded their territory, causing these powerful creatures to break their nerves and launch a large-scale invasion of the Fungal Whisper Forest.

The Mud Gold family hurriedly sought refuge in the mechanic's house.

One of the little creatures even gave a flat-screen monitor to the mage Linbo, who was sitting cross-legged by the roadside. The balloon's remote-controlled imagery clearly showed the approaching beasts: a hybrid chimera, a giant bull covered in scales, a winged crocodile, and a colossal millipede as large as a building, among others.

These intelligent magical creatures will be among the first enemies corrupted by Chaos, posing the most direct threat to the player's territory.

Lin Bo patted the fungal carpet, instructing the fungal master to guide the green-skinned creatures into battle.

Even though the rainforest's overlords are physically strong, they still couldn't fight for more than half an hour against thousands of strong, dangerous mushroom people wielding knives and cannons. They were then slaughtered and dismembered, their spoils worn and flaunted by the green-skinned creatures, their flesh roasted and eaten, and their remains left to decompose completely in the fungal carpet.

Even if you eliminate these neutral creatures, you won't gain any killing experience.

Last night's earthquake was a challenging training exercise for Lin Bo.

Not long ago, his Blazing Control Technique was upgraded to Lv3. During the upgrade, there were two branches to choose from: "Sun Wheel," which tends to increase temperature, and "Shock Extreme," which tends to trigger explosions. Both branches use Solid Control Technique to propel Blazing Control Technique. The Sun Wheel's properties allow objects to maintain their shape at extremely high temperatures, preventing them from burning violently or disintegrating due to excessive internal energy. However, ultimately, materials with better heat resistance can withstand higher extreme temperatures, and the upper temperature limits vary greatly among different materials.

As for the characteristics of the shock electrode, it can cause objects to explode at normal temperature or even low temperature. However, the lower the temperature, the less the total amount of matter, and the smaller the explosive power. Nevertheless, it can still shatter things into dust.

At that time, Lin Bo chose the seismic polarity characteristic because he valued its advantages in terms of productivity. Last night's thunderous earthquake was also caused by the explosive roar of the rock strata under his control.

The Lv3 Fierce Defense Technique granted a chance to comprehend a fragment of the scroll.

In Lin Bo's current panel, the Telemetry skill is also at Lv3. The condition for this skill has changed to deciphering carrier signals by observing electromagnetic waves.

This kind of thing was very easy for him, and radio was already widespread in his original world, so his proficiency level accumulated very quickly. He was almost at the maximum proficiency level in just three days after leveling up.

Lin Bo is currently fine-tuning the structure of the Yuan Magnetic Holy Embryo, inspired by the design of the Power Energy Holy Embryo. Therefore, he has not yet deciphered the fragments required for the Observational Light Remote Measurement Technique.

He plans to take some time in the next day or two to learn the incomplete scrolls of both skills, so that he can accumulate enough proficiency in the Telescope Technique. Once the Primordial Magnetic Embryo is successfully forged, the Exemplary Mission will be completed.

The countdown has begun in the world chat announcement: there are 6 hours left until the Chaos Invasion.

Many players have already begun to panic. They are hastily establishing territories, but once they fall, the leader's certificate will be damaged, and the fall of the entire territory will be the moment it shatters.

Merchants in the channel started selling high-powered weapons, and players with adjacent territories began seeking alliances.

Lin Bo also dispatched a Greenskin team to be stationed in the territory of the Mechanist, in order to prevent her mine from being destroyed by the Chaos Blast.

As dusk falls, the sun sets in the west, hanging above the horizon, and the eastern night rises like a tide. In the deep, dark purple sky, a strange, dark yellow light shines, stretching out like a short, horizontal line.

Something is about to descend from the sky.

The intrusion countdown in the network announcement slowly reached zero.

Then the strange, dark yellow light on the horizon slowly opened its eyes, its sclera as murky as an old bronze vessel, its pupils as pale as if it were blind, its irises as vibrant as if they were bleeding—it was a moon.

Its dripping blood fell from the sky to the earth, each drop as dazzling as a fire meteor, as large as a hill, totaling one thousand and nine. They streaked across the sky, creating huge craters when they landed, or crashing into the sea and splashing up giant waves. The entire surface of the planet was almost evenly distributed.

The drop of blood transformed into a towering cocoon, nurturing the human incarnation of a chaotic demon.

"It's starting." The Mechanist rubbed his hands together as if he felt a chill.

"I wonder how many players will survive the first night." The barbarian crossed his arms.

They observed the monk's expression and posture, which had relaxed somewhat. Following his gaze, they stared at the ancient yellow moon and felt the moonlight was piercingly cold, sending chills down their spines without them even realizing it.

A loud crash of a meteorite hitting the ground came from four kilometers to the southeast. There, a chaotic embryo was located, only a few hundred meters away from the edge of the Fungus Forest.

Drawn by the alluring scent emanating from the womb, the beasts gathered toward the crater, only to be corroded and killed by the mist spreading from the blood droplets. Their souls became energy, and their flesh and blood became nourishment, sustaining the servants of chaos.

These blind monsters, neither human nor beast, are hairless, armorless, and scaleless. They walk on four legs, their bodies are pale and shriveled, resembling corpses. Their faces are large, blood-red mouths and a pair of nostrils, with long, thin bat ears on either side of their heads. They rely on hearing and smell to perceive their environment and distinguish friend from foe.

They suddenly heard the roar of engines and the crackling of gunfire approaching from afar.

The green-skinned men rode their dilapidated motorcycles and tractors, happily heading this way.

"I see something strange!" shouted the green-skinned lookout.

"Beat them up!" the other green-skinned men replied.

"Waaaaah!!" All the greens roared wildly, and the invisible psionic network stirred like boiling water.

In the sky, the mage stood suspended in mid-air, looking down at the enormous, hill-like primordial egg of chaos. He gently flicked his palm, and above his head, the clouds of the rainforest were gathering, rubbing, and churning, accumulating electrical charges that transformed into dazzling, shimmering serpents of light.

Players can gain kill experience by killing enemy faction creatures, since the leader is the first and last member of a faction.

Lin Bo stopped stirring the clouds and silently recited the true name of lightning. Then, he raised his hand and clenched it in the air.

In the twilight atmosphere, hundreds of enormous electric branches falling from the clouds converged like river veins, forming a line that hovered in the mage's palm, transforming into a gleaming spear of light.

He casually tossed it, and the lightning struck the scarlet oval hill, exploding upon contact with its target.

In the next instant, the land within a radius of two thousand square kilometers was illuminated by a pale white light, and the edges of the tree shadows were as sharp as iron.
