Chapter 781 - 535: Be a Hero, Enjoy Yourself

Whether it’s the silver-eyed mushroom-eater or the red-eyed mushroom-eater, their obsession with mushrooms is the same.

Before their sharp forelimb steel fork, even the protective barrier cannot resist.

It’s not easy, but at least it can’t be stopped.

Crack! Crack!

Piercing through the protective barrier, the steel fork paused for only half a second before driving deeply inward.

From this angle, not only the Mushroom Warrior, but also Spam in front of it will be pierced through.

However, Long Ren’s warning had some effect.

It made the Mushroom Warrior notice its presence when the steel fork touched the protective barrier.

But the Mushroom Warrior did not dodge, perhaps there wasn’t enough time, perhaps for other reasons.

Anyway, its first reaction was to push Spam away.

"Damn, they actually launched a sneak attack!"

Wu Guinan saw this scene and was immediately outraged.

A ghostly afterimage appeared on his body, and he activated [Sprint] to rush forward.

Clang!

Using the impact from [Sprint], he punched the red-eyed mushroom-eater several meters back.

Li Fan did not favor one over the other, and taught [Hardening] to Wu Guinan as well.

Although currently he can only harden both arms, facing the red-eyed mushroom-eater he’s not completely powerless.

Additionally, after frequent sparring with Li Pu, and lately fighting with Fufu, he does have some combat abilities.

"Damn it!"

The crisis of being attacked front and back made Long Ren curse, then he also joined Wu Guinan in the battle.

But he couldn’t do much, only help Wu Guinan by adding an extra layer of [Barrier].

Unlike a fixed [Barrier], he now uses a more advanced technique, protecting Wu Guinan without hindering his movements.

The two Summoners teamed up, temporarily delaying the red-eyed mushroom-eater that dug a tunnel for a sneak attack.

Boom!

[Energy... System... Unscathed]

But when it rains, it pours. At this moment, number 2 was attacked by another red-eyed mushroom-eater from the other side.

The intelligence of the red-eyed mushroom-eater clearly surpasses that of the silver-eyed mushroom-eater. It knows that if it doesn’t deal with the big iron head responsible for sustaining energy, it will be hard to quickly break through the barrier of Blab Turtle.

Since there’s now a competitor, if it drags on it might not get the mushrooms.

So, relying on its undead body, it forcibly broke number 2.

At this moment, number 2’s exposed circuits flickered with sparks, and the light in its eyes was rapidly fading.

Meanwhile, it was beginning to dissipate into blue light.

This is the scene when a summoned beast falls, something Long Ren is most familiar with.

"This has become troublesome now."

Qian Shanshan saw the change in battle condition, her face turned grim.

They couldn’t handle even one undead red-eyed mushroom-eater, let alone two.

However, the most pressing issue at this moment isn’t this.

It’s the helpless Mushroom Warrior leaning against the wall.

Three large holes perforated its chest, and blue liquid was continuously pouring out.

"This, this, this! Bo!"

Nearby Spam was spinning anxiously.

"What are you thinking, Bo?!"

It urgently questioned the other.

Because theoretically, since the Mushroom Warrior had time to push it away, it should have had time to dodge itself.

Importantly, it has a devil’s body. Though it might manifest differently, from a certain perspective, it’s also an undead body, protected by demon law from any target’s proactive attacks.

In Spam’s view, the Mushroom Warrior’s action was entirely unnecessary.

In fact, this unnecessary action now is equivalent to costing the Mushroom Warrior its life!

Because it’s proven these red-eyed mushroom-eaters can indeed hurt the Warrior, and the only one present capable of healing, the big iron head, is gone.

"Goo-haha, I’m fine, I am a warrior."

Even at this moment, the Mushroom Warrior still wore that smiley face, but the serious injury made it extremely weak, its voice somewhat hushed.

"Moreover, there’s one thing I fear you don’t know, stinky demon."

"A warrior can kill demons."

"Goo... Goo-da..."

In actuality, the Mushroom Warrior knew long ago that only warriors can inflict harm upon warriors.

So although it didn’t understand why these beasts could genuinely hurt itself, at least it confirmed they were equivalent to warriors.

"This... You...! Bo!"

Obviously, Spam didn’t know this fact.

For a moment, it didn’t know what to say.

"Right, you, you, you, quickly make a wish!"

"Wish, wish to make your injuries disappear!"

"Bo!!!"

But suddenly, it woke up.

With such injuries, given the previous price the Mushroom Warrior paid, a wish could perhaps heal it.

Even if it can’t heal entirely, it could at least keep it alive until help arrives.

"Goo-haha! You stinky demon."

"A warrior’s wish, a warrior fulfills themself."

"Goo... Goo-da."

The mushroom hue on the Mushroom Warrior’s face, also known as blood color, was fading.

In fact, there was one thing it never told Spam from the start.

It was that when the Mushroom Warrior offered its price, an epiphany revealed a rule to it.

A warrior cannot wish for themselves.

"You fool, stop saying these silly things!"

"Quickly make a wish! Wish to live!"

"Bo!!!"

Spam’s big watery eyes had tears accumulating. Why is this guy still being stubborn on the brink of death!

At this moment, it began to resent its identity as a demon again.
