Actually, Li Pu felt a bit regretful; like other mushroom magical beasts, Brother Mushroom burst into pieces when he died.
Due to the previous fire, as well as forgetting to hold back at the last mont, its remains were quite incomplete.
However, this guy felt harder to deal with than the Mushroom Eater, not just because it was a level 1 higher.
Overall, it was much better, especially the agility of the human-shaped monster, far surpassing the clunky Mushroom Eater.
Being able to defeat the opponent was already quite good, and he couldn’t ask for too much.
As for the related items, they couldn’t form a complete set, only 33/100.
"OK, you passed the test."
Over here, Li Fan glanced deeply at the scarecrow before turning to Li Pu and taking out two items.
The first item was a Crystal Ball worth 10,000.
Handing it to Li Pu, he discovered that in terms of weight and shape, this Crystal Ball was similar to 1,000 Crystal Coins.
The difference was that the crystal’s brilliance was much stronger, and the Summoner panel provided concentration feedback, naly 10,000.
As for the other item, he was not unfamiliar with it.
It was a Cubic Card player’s special chanical glove, seen on TV.
However, Li Fan’s glove was much more exquisite than those seen on TV players.
Apart from the exposed precision circuits, it was also inlaid with unknown gemstones.
"Cubic Card is an extra feature on the Summoner Panel, which needs activation before it can be used."
"And this glove is essential equipnt at the card table."
"At the sa ti, it can help you activate the Cubic Card panel."
"This is my own glove, just lending it to you temporarily for activation."
With his introduction, Li Pu put on the loose glove.
Originally, Li Pu was puzzled because his hand size was similar to his ntor’s, but why was this glove so large?
Once he slipped it on, there was the sound of chanical parts adjusting, and the entire glove snugly fitted his hand.
"You don’t need to do anything; just wait a few minutes to open the Cubic Card panel."
Seeing the gemstones on the glove light up, Li Fan continued explaining.
"For now, you can treat the Cubic Card panel as a collection system."
"Only after activation will the magical beasts you kill drop cards."
"Simultaneously, you’ll gain the ability to pick them up and incorporate them into your deck."
Li Fan flicked his wrist, revealing a card.
[Brother Mushroom!]
The card projection was precisely the Brother Mushroom that had just fought with Li Pu.
Unbeknownst to him, Li Fan had already made a subtle attack on Brother Mushroom, not affecting the battle.
The purpose was to successfully collect the card.
Being the only player to attack Brother Mushroom, he naturally could take the card.
"Rember, the Cubic Card panel has its own set of criteria."
"If multiple players jointly kill a magical beast, only the one with the highest contribution can pick the card first."
"So, during your ti in the southern forest, you mustn’t bring anyone except your summons."
Lastly, Li Fan provided a caution.
This was to maintain secrecy; the fewer who know about collecting cards, the better.
"Understood, ntor."
At this ti, new panel feedback reached his mind, and Li Pu nodded.
From today, he counted as a Cubic Card player.
"Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll..."
[Caocao!]
Li Fan’s words were interrupted by the scarecrow’s call.
Turning back, the two found it had dug a hole on the ground at so unknown ti.
"Oh?"
Upon seeing the item in the pit, Li Fan was slightly surprised.
Judging by his reaction, Li Pu knew the scarecrow must have uncovered sothing unusual.
Approaching, indeed it looked quite special.
It was a piece of wood about 20CM long, with a complete golden color like it was coated with gold using exquisite craftsmanship.
The surface of the wood was covered with little mushrooms that differed slightly in appearance.
"ntor, what is this..."
He expressed his confusion.
"A certain treasure from another world."
"It seems the mutation of Brother Mushroom resulted from this."
Li Fan crossed his arms, carefully examined it before continuing to explain.
"This piece of golden wood should co from a Golden Tree, a foreign plant rich in nutrients."
"However, this is just a small piece of wood with signs of decay."
"As for this kind of mushroom, it’s a rare type of toxic mushroom, Strength Mushroom."
Pointing to the one with the most mushrooms.
"If a summon mistakenly eats it, it’ll gain a temporary power boost, but the side effect is the contained toxin will cause severe ntal damage, potentially leading to imdiate insanity."
"Perhaps only mushroom-type magical beasts are less affected when consud, and may even facilitate mutation."
Hearing this, Li Pu’s eyes lit up.
The scarecrow isn’t afraid of mushroom toxins, so could it consu them?
A temporary power boost, although he didn’t know to what extent.
If the leap is like from Red Head Mushroom to Brother Mushroom, it seems quite good.
[Caocao!]
Sensing this thought, the scarecrow shook its head like a rattle.
It didn’t wish to transform into a muscle-bound scarecrow like Brother Mushroom – too disgusting.
"You can sell it at the school trading post."
"Although I estimate it isn’t worth much, maybe 3,000 to 4,000 Crystal Coins."
"Since this thing has no value in making inscriptions, the toxicity isn’t killer, but it’s too strong."
Li Fan didn’t notice Li Pu’s peculiar reaction and waved his hand.
Since the scarecrow found it, it’s only natural it belongs to him.
"Alright, ntor."
Li Pu nodded and placed it into his storage space.
The originally proud scarecrow lost interest upon learning it could only fetch Crystal Coins.
It only liked coins because they could buy cola from the vending machine.
"Well done, I’ll order you another barrel of cola when we return."
Li Pu comfortingly patted its shoulder.
[Cao!]
This moved the scarecrow, making it enthusiastically start digging in the corner again.
However, it knew the probability of finding anything new was zero; the 10-wood perception confird the answer.
As for the piece of golden wood covered in tiny toxic mushrooms, Li Pu had no imdiate plans to sell it.
With Li Fan’s 10,000 Crystal Coins as a buffer, he wasn’t short on money.
For now, he’d keep it, in case it becos useful in the right situation.
After resolving so doubts with Li Fan, Li Pu decided to stay.
He had just activated the Cubic Card panel, so he could take this opportunity to collect the cards from Mushroom Valley first.
"Alright, take care of yourself."
Li Fan casually advised, then dropped his lighter on the ground.
This bizarre action caught Li Pu’s attention.
