The world enters the fungal world

Chapter 54 Strange Creatures

After experiencing this for the past few days, Li Yu has noticed that he can digest edible fungi more easily when he is active or fighting, which makes him have a better appetite and can eat more edible fungi.

The more edible fungi a fungus needs, the faster its spores will grow.

Zou Dapeng touched his neck and said, "No wonder your punches just now had such a powerful wind; I couldn't do that."

Li Yu was about to return to the living room when he suddenly let out a soft exclamation, looked up sharply, and gazed into the distance.

Under the cover of night, Jiangcheng resembles a gigantic mushroom jungle, with the distant horizon swallowed by darkness.

At that moment, something suddenly appeared in the darkness in the distance, like an enormous halo of light, breaking through the darkness and approaching the area where they were.

Startled by this sudden discovery, Li Yu instinctively took a step back from the balcony and retreated back to the living room.

Zou Dapeng and Fang Mingxuan also saw it, and they both opened their mouths slightly, showing surprise.

"What...what is that?" Fang Mingxuan stammered.

Li Yu didn't speak, but instead locked onto the halo that appeared in the distance, discovering that a dark mass was hidden within it, approaching at an alarming speed.

The people in the living room quickly noticed and stood up, each with a tense expression on their face.

As the halo drew closer, everyone finally saw it clearly: the halo resembled a blurry giant mushroom cap, faintly glowing in the night. Beneath the cap, enveloped by the halo, appeared to grow two enormous black wings.

The edges of the wings, formed from darkness, undulated constantly, appearing to be formed from liquid and lacking a stable shape.

With each flap of its wings, the thing approached at an astonishing speed.

The six people in the living room stared wide-eyed. No one could see clearly what it was. They only knew that the thing was constantly approaching the residential buildings and soon flew over the supermarket, almost completely obscuring the sky above.

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines. Just how huge was this thing?

The cap, which was shrouded in a halo of light, suddenly contracted, then expanded, and burst forth with a large number of fluorescent mushrooms.

These mushrooms are shaped like umbrella caps, with long, undulating mycelia growing underneath. They glow with fluorescence and vary in length.

The shorter ones were about a foot long, and the longer ones were over three meters long. At this moment, they gushed out from the cap of that enormous creature and flew everywhere.

The cap, shrouded in a halo of light, sprayed out several times in succession, each time releasing a large number of glowing mushrooms.

Soon, these glowing mushrooms enveloped the residential area and flew to every corner of the community.

The six people standing in the living room watched in disbelief as the glowing mushrooms floated and swayed, like luminous octopuses flying through the air. The mycelium beneath the caps danced like tentacles and landed on the balcony.

An amazing scene unfolded: the glowing mushrooms that had fallen onto the balcony had their mycelium taking root as if they were alive.

Even reinforced concrete buildings cannot stop them; these mycelia easily penetrate them.

In particular, most of these buildings and surfaces have cracks, which these mycelia can easily penetrate.

In a short time, a large number of glowing mushrooms drifted onto the balcony. Not only that, these mushrooms could also drift into the room through the balcony and windows.

"What should we do?" Zou Dapeng's face changed color. He didn't know what these glowing mushrooms were, and the manual didn't mention them. Nobody knew if they were poisonous.

Li Yu watched as the glowing mushrooms that had drifted onto the balcony took root in the wall, spreading outwards at a visible speed.

These fluorescent mycelia intertwined and quickly covered all parts of the balcony, then spread along the ground and walls into the room.

"Take your belongings and let's retreat." Li Yu remained relatively calm and immediately picked up the iron spear that was placed to the side.

These glowing mushrooms were so eerie that no one dared to touch them. The only option was to retreat and then see how things went.

Everyone picked up their weapons. Fang Mingxuan slung his backpack over his shoulder and picked up a crowbar. Zou Dapeng held a dagger and a stick. Qian Lili pushed open the security door, and everyone retreated towards the doorway.

Li Yu saw a stick on the ground and, on a whim, picked it up.

This stick originally belonged to Fang Mingxuan, but now that he has a fire-fighting crowbar, he left the stick here.

Li Yu picked up the stick and saw the glowing mycelium extending along the living room floor. He used the stick to poke at one of the mycelium filaments.

With this flick, the mycelium, like octopus tentacles, immediately wrapped around the end of the stick and extended rapidly. Li Yu pulled the stick sharply and felt that the mycelium was very tough.

He needed to use all his strength, and it was like snapping a rubber band, with a soft crack, that he broke the mycelium in the middle.

At the break, liquid seeped out and dripped onto the floor, immediately making a hissing sound and emitting black smoke. The liquid corroded several black holes in the floor.

The broken mycelium clinging to the end of the stick withered and turned black, hissing and emitting black smoke as the stick continued to corrode.

Seeing this, Li Yu felt a chill run down his spine and immediately threw away the stick in his hand.

The mycelia that had spread in seemed to be shaken, trembling violently and immediately accelerating their spread.

Countless glowing mycelia invaded the balcony, spreading along the floor, walls, and ceiling, densely packed and crisscrossing, before converging towards the doorway where they were located.

Li Yu had a feeling that these mycelia were self-aware and that they had now become their target.

"Let's go!" Li Yu no longer hesitated and told everyone to leave. They had just witnessed how terrifying these mycelia were, and it would be troublesome if they got entangled in them.

As everyone left the house, Qian Lili cried out in alarm, "Look, there are mycelia on it too!"

As Li Yu stepped out, he looked up and saw glowing mycelium appearing on the wall above the stairs, spreading downwards along the stairwell wall.

At this rate, it won't be long before the entire building, inside and out, is covered with these luminescent mycelia.

Everyone who saw this changed their expressions.

Zhou Xigang had already started rushing down, and so far, he hadn't seen any glowing mycelium on the walls on either side of the stairs.

It appears that these glowing mushrooms fell from the sky and slowly spread downwards, eroding the building.

"Li Yu, what do we do now?" Zou Dapeng couldn't help but look at Li Yu.

"Let's go down first!" Li Yu couldn't think of a better solution at the moment, so they could only take it one step at a time. The group rushed down the stairs.

The six people quickly escaped to the first floor, but Zhou Xigang, who was in charge, did not rush out immediately.

The sky is now filled with these glowing mushrooms flying around. We don't know what the situation is outside. If we rush out rashly and these glowing mushrooms land on us, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Now everyone was crowded in the passageway on the first floor. Looking out through the unit door, Li Yu noticed that some glowing mushrooms had fallen to the ground.
