At the break of dawn the next day, the four of them once again arrived at the edge of the abyss.
This ti, Jiang Guiju generously poured the whole bottle of mushroom mint on the shore.
Anyway, she had several more bottles in her possession, so there was no fear of running out.
After setting everything up, they lay in ambush again.
[Mushroom, mushroom!] xN
In no ti, a group of frenzied tundra mushroom people ca rushing over.
"Uh, where did so many mushroom people co from..."
Seeing this scene, Chang Shoushang was a bit dumbfounded.
When they ca here yesterday, they hadn’t encountered a single mushroom person.
No one knew where these guys had been hiding before.
"Is the effect of mushroom mint really that good?"
Jiang Guiju was similarly surprised by the situation.
It seed that yesterday’s amount was indeed too little.
[Mushroom scent! Mushroom! Mushroom!]
Many mushroom people ran to the mushroom mint-sprinkled ground, sniffed around, and then started rolling about.
So of them swayed as if they were drunk, unable to stand steadily.
"This number... is just too much."
Seeing even more mushroom people running over, Long Ren was contemplating changing locations.
He observed the whole ti and confird that this batch was still all tundra mushrooms, with none from the abyss.
"Wait, let take a closer look first."
But Li Pu disagreed, wanting to search through this pile of mushrooms to see if there was any card he hadn’t collected yet.
"There really is."
After a while, he found a few targets.
This ti he didn’t bother to go out himself and secretly used the scarecrow’s [Entangle].
[Grass!]
The scarecrow lifted a hand, and vines sprouted up under those mushroom people.
The long and tough vines unexpectedly wrapped around them.
[Mushroom, mushroom~] xN
Yet those mushroom people seed entirely oblivious, still indulging in the aftertaste of the mushroom mint.
Thud! xN
Under Li Pu’s command, the vines forcefully slamd them onto the ground.
After repeating this a few more tis, their fragile bodies were broken into pieces.
"Okay, we can change places now."
With the cards in hand, he was quite pleased.
"Wait a mont."
But at this point, Jiang Guiju noticed sothing unusual.
Following her finger’s direction, everyone saw a white, ghost-like blob floating out from the abyss.
A spirit beast?
The group exchanged glances, guessing the answer.
Jiang Guiju had previously ntioned that there were also beasts within the abyss.
Besides abyss mushrooms, there were also spirit beasts that loved to eat them.
However, no one could tell exactly what this white blob was.
"Should we deal with that thing?"
Chang Shoushang asked the others.
The concept of spirit beasts was clear to everyone, more ghostly than ghosts themselves.
Beings like ghosts and elental types would only suffer less from physical damage, but spirit types were completely unphased by physical ans.
"Let’s observe it first."
Jiang Guiju signaled everyone to hold their ground.
In truth, she felt that their team didn’t have many ans to counter spirit beasts.
Her eggshell beast could release limited electricity for support, but as a main output, its effect would be greatly reduced.
Chang Shoushang’s biting flower was a bit baffling, unclear if it counted as a physical attack or a spatial devouring attack, but at least no one expected much from it.
Long Ren’s fire pinch scorpion could release flas, theoretically able to damage spirit beasts effectively, but it couldn’t fly, so ranged thods were more reliable.
So, in the end, she believed they should rely on Li Pu.
His ans were so vast that she couldn’t comprehend, and should have a good strategy.
But at least Jiang Guiju’s suggestion for everyone to calm down was wise.
Because shortly after, they saw more white blobs erging.
"These numbers aren’t any less than those mushrooms!"
Chang Shoushang craned his neck to look into the abyss.
One by one, the white dots grew as they rose.
[Niannian eats mushrooms~]
When the first white blob floated to the shore, its shape suddenly twisted and shivered.
It seed to express joy at finding food.
Then it slowly floated over the nearest mushroom person’s head.
It then unfurled its body, wrapping the mushroom person completely.
[Mushroom, mushroom~]
The effects of mushroom mint rendered the mushroom people oblivious, their bodies growing listless under the white blob’s embrace.
"Is this how spirit beasts feed?"
"It’s quite peculiar, like it’s sucking the essence."
"Once targeted, it seems hard to shake them off."
The group watched in amazent.
More spirit beasts ca ashore, beginning to choose which mushroom person to suck on.
Soon enough, all the mushroom spots were occupied, with plenty of white blobs left prowling around.
But it seed like the first batch of spirit beasts quickly got their fill, swaying off the mushroom people’s bodies, allowing the queued white blobs to continue.
"You guys... step back a bit."
Li Pu thought for a mont and signaled for everyone to distance themselves from him.
"?"
Although puzzled, the group still complied out of trust.
They crouched down, silently retreating 20 to 30 ters.
After estimating that the distance was safe, Li Pu glanced at Bubu.
