Monster collectors on the cross-platform

That's right, Huo got lost.

After choosing to stay away from the main city of Drow, Huo entered a mushroom forest not long after he left.

There was nothing else in the mushroom forest except for vast stretches of mushrooms.

If it were outside, Huo could choose to fly over at high altitude.

However, this was in a dark place, surrounded by rock walls on all sides, and even the ceiling was covered with rocks.

No matter how long Huo walked, the mushrooms around him remained unchanged. The mushrooms varied in size, some larger than a three-story building, others smaller than a thumb.

Just as Huo was getting impatient and wanted to break through by force...

A group of mushroom people slowly emerged from the shadows, their mushroom caps shimmering with a mysterious light.

The leading mushroom-like creature waved its hand, and a plume of purple spore smoke drifted out from its cap, heading towards Huo Huan and his companions.

"Hello, young adventurers, do not be afraid, this is our friendly greeting," a gentle voice came from the group of mushroom people at the head of the group.

Are these mushroom people?

Huo looked at the large group of mushroom people in front of him with some curiosity. Mushroom people are a race that lives in dark regions and looks like mushrooms.

Their overall strength is not strong. They feed on fungi and can be considered a lawful, neutral race leaning towards goodness.

This is also why Huo hasn't made a move yet.

Instead of killing these weak survivors, it's better to ask them if there are any worthwhile prey nearby.

After all, the mushroom people, with their ability to sense fungi, are very familiar with the surrounding area.

"Are you a mushroom person? I don't know why you've stopped us," Huo asked directly, unaware of the mushroom person's intentions.

"I am the King of the Fungi in this colony. I have stopped you three because I need your help," the mushroom man who called himself the King of the Fungi stepped out in front of Huo Huan and then explained his purpose.

Help? Could it be some kind of monster that the mushroom people can't deal with?

Upon hearing the mushroom king's words, Huo immediately became interested.

"Tell me about it. If it's convenient, I wouldn't mind helping you solve it."

"A powerful beholder has arrived from the east of the colony. It controls dozens of ogres and is constantly expanding its territory. Unfortunately, our colony is being used as their reserve food and is being devoured," the Mushroom King paused, then continued.

"We are no match for them, so we can only seek help from passing adventurers in the hope of defeating the leader of the Eye Demons. Of course, there will be a reward for that."

After the Mushroom King finished speaking, he stared intently at Huo Huan, awaiting his reply.

A bewitching demon? That's a good prey; it should make a decent collectible.

Compared to hordes of drow elves, a single-eyed demon plus a few ogres is not an insurmountable opponent.

If it were the Eye of the Elder or the Eye of the Nest Mother, Huo might hesitate a little, but if it were just a single Eye Demon, he could try hunting it.

“No problem, we’ll take the mission. Now tell us where the Eye Demon is.” After a moment’s thought, Huo immediately agreed to the Mushroom King’s request.

Seeing that Huo Huan had agreed, the Fungus King immediately summoned a fungus to lead the way for Huo Huan and the other two.

A small mushroom-man jumped out from the mushroom crowd and hopped along, leading Huo and the other two towards the east.

The little mushroom man is quite cute as he hops and skips, but his speed is pitifully slow.

After walking for a while, unable to bear the speed any longer, Huo grabbed the little mushroom man.

"Don't be afraid, you can guide us," Huo said in a deep voice, looking at the mushroom man trembling in his hands.

The little mushroom-man, who was terrified by the spraying spores, was relieved to see that he was alright and began to give directions to Huo and the other two.

Without the little mushroom man's burden, Huo and the other two's journey immediately picked up.

After being guided by the little mushroom man, Huo and his two companions finally reached the edge of the mushroom forest.

At the same time, several ogres also came into Huo Huan's view.

"These ogres are yours to handle," Huo said to the two women, putting down the small mushroom man in his hand after finding his target.

Following Huo Huan's orders, Etris and Leticia took turns launching several ground spikes and wind blades at the distant ogres.

"Awooo!" Suddenly attacked, the ogre, who was still eating mushrooms, screamed in pain.

But the screams only lasted a short while before he collapsed under the two women's magic.

However, the ogre's dying screams also attracted the attention of the beholder in the distance.

Before long, a giant eyeball stood in mid-air and flew towards them from a distance, followed by a large group of ogres.

Upon seeing the main character appear, Huo did not hesitate and immediately spread his wings and flew towards the Eye Demon.

As soon as it approached the Eye Demon, two rays, one gray and one red, shot out from the smaller eyes surrounding the main eye.

The rays were so fast that Huo was caught off guard and had no chance to dodge them.

"Is this petrification and flames?" Huo wondered to himself, sensing the power of the two rays.

However, although these two rays were fast, Huo Huan's current physique and energy resistance made him almost completely immune to these attacks.

Seeing that the rays were no longer effective, the Eye Demon emitted more different types of rays from its small eye.

Disintegration, weakness, paralysis, death...

The multicolored rays illuminated the surrounding space for a moment.

For an ordinary adventure team, facing such a ferocious attack from the Eye Demon, they would definitely be overwhelmed and might even lose some of their members' lives.

This time, however, it was facing Huo Huan, a monster with high physical strength and high magic resistance.

Facing the Eye Demon's multicolored rays, Huo simply ignored them, enduring the rays head-on, and punched its enormous main eye.

The main eye was struck hard, and the intense pain caused the rays from the surrounding smaller eyes to stop abruptly.

With that stop, the Eye Demon had no more ability to resist and was beaten to death by Huo Huan punch after punch.

The poor Eye Demon's strongest anti-magic field had no effect on Huo, and he was simply overpowered and killed.

With the death of the beholder, the surrounding ogres were quickly annihilated by the attacks of the two women.

Huo also summoned the Book of Collections, which contained all the corpses in front of him.

Race Name: Beholder

Introduction: Legend has it that the Eye Demons were first born in the outer realm. Their ancestor was a primordial being comparable to a god.

Anti-Magic Ray: The Beholder can suppress all magical effects around itself, including spells, magical items, and enchanted weapons. When equipped, the player gains the Anti-Magic Ray.

Diverse Rays: The Eye Demon has various rays with different effects. After equipping it, the player gains ray abilities, with each ray used once per day.

Mind Resistance: With multiple eyes, the Eye Demon has extremely strong resistance to mind-based spells. When equipped, it enhances the player's resistance to mind-based spells.

Chapter 129 The Nest

A rather interesting ability; it can basically be called the bane of spellcasters.

After reviewing the Eye Demon's traits, Huo dragged it directly into the loading bar.

After acquiring the Eye Demon's traits, Huo finally understood the variety of the Eye Demon's rays.

In addition to direct damage types such as dissociation rays, energy rays, and lethal rays, there are also control types such as paralyzing rays, petrifying rays, fear rays, slowing rays, hypnotic rays, and charm rays.

There is also a nearly universally applicable telekinetic ray.

It can be said to be quite comprehensive.

The Beholder uses the Enchanting Ray to control the ogres. Although the Enchanting Ray usually only lasts for an hour, repeated use on the same target will weaken the creature's will, gradually turning it into a submissive servant.

This is also why the Eye Demon usually has a bunch of henchmen and pets.

However, all these various types of rays have now been returned to Huo.

Feeling the extra rays emanating from his body, Huo was tempted to try it out, but since there were no enemies around, he had to give up for the time being.

Seeing that the battle was over, the little mushroom man in the distance immediately hopped back from his hiding place.

"Wait here for a bit, I'll go back with you later," Huo waved to the little mushroom man who had appeared.

After defeating the monster, how can you not pick up the loot?

The Eye Demon is quite powerful and must have some spoils of war. Moreover, Eye Demons are creatures that are keen on recruiting subordinates, so they will inevitably engage in conquest.

Huo led the two women in the direction the Eye Demon had come from, and soon they found a cave not far away.

Huo was about to go in and find out what was going on when he heard a cracking sound under his feet.

The next second, fierce flames engulfed Huo Huan completely.

It turned out to be a magic trap, but fortunately, Huo was immune to fire, so the magic trap was useless.

However, the Eye Demon was indeed very cautious, even setting up magical traps at the entrance of its own lair.

Huo also estimated that this was not the only place, so he simply sensed the earth directly. Any part that could not be directly controlled by him was likely to be covered by magical traps.

Using this sensory ability, Huo destroyed five more magical traps, and that was only the outer perimeter of the lair.

After clearing all the traps, Huo led the two women into the Eye Demon's lair.

Not far in, a smooth, vertical passage appeared in front of Huo Huan. The passage was circular and its size should be just right for the Eye Demon to enter and exit.

Fortunately, all three of them could fly; otherwise, it would have been difficult to climb such a straight and smooth tunnel.

Spreading their wings and flying upwards, Huo and his two companions soon arrived at a large hall.

The hall was cluttered with a jumble of things, including skulls of unknown creatures, equipment, ornaments, and jewelry and art pieces, making it look like an exhibition hall for bewitching creatures.

Although there were many items, very few were valuable. Huo selected some items that could be sold and put them in his spatial backpack, ignoring the rest as trash.

After leaving the exhibition hall, Huo continued his search for the Eye Demon's lair.

The Eye Demon's lair was huge, with many rooms of all shapes and sizes, the purpose of which was unknown.

Huo searched several rooms but found nothing of value, and even found another exit.

Just as Huo was beginning to doubt whether this Eye Demon was anything good, after traversing a long, vertical path, Huo finally reached the top.

There's a trap.

Using the power of the earth to sense the trap on the rock wall above him, Huo became excited.
