I Can’t Play This Game Anymore

Chapter 121: Mycelia growing on corpses

"Mycelium?"

Ji Han also squatted down to re-identify.

The silk threads on the ground are uneven in thickness, most of them are white, and they all cling to the ground and spread in all directions.

Although Ji Han hadn't seen mycelium much, he was definitely not spider silk.

Song Qian asked:

"Chen Ke, can you confirm?"

Chen Ke nodded and said:

"Absolutely. I am often called by Ding An to help with some experiments. I have seen some mycelium with him, but this is the first time I have seen it on this scale."

Eggplant didn't quite believe it, and asked:

"Although I don't know much about this thing, it should be similar to mushrooms, right? Where did mycelium come from in this desert?"

Chen Ke explained:

"Since entering this city, the temperature has been much higher than outside, and it has dropped to this depth. The temperature and humidity here are completely different from those in the desert, which meets the conditions for the production of mycelium."

After listening to the eggplant, he was about to continue walking in, but Song Qian stopped him and said:

"Don't go in first, if these things turn those people into living corpses, we can't protect them."

Chen Ke took out four new masks and gloves and distributed them to everyone:

"Yes, if we are dealing with these things, we must be very careful."

Eggplant laughed and scolded:

"Damn it, you're even wearing a mask and gloves, Chen Ke, you kid is too careful."

Ji Han also took Dai and said:

"It is true that protection should be done, but I speculate that the method of turning people into living corpses should not be inhalation, otherwise the leader of the Hun soldiers would not be fine after coming down twice. It must be infected by other methods. Everyone carefully remove these mycelia , let's go in and have a look."

The four of them held harpoons in their hands, carefully pushed aside the mycelium on the road, and walked slowly into the cave.

Although it has been confirmed that it is mycelium, the layer by layer still looks like a coiled silk hole.

The air here is warmer and more humid than outside, and the air is filled with the smell of earth.

Eggplant joked:

"It feels like walking into a vegetable greenhouse where mushrooms are grown."

The metaphor of eggplant is very appropriate every time, but when it comes to mushrooms, it reminds Ji Han.

Ji Han asked:

"Hey, Chen Ke, do you know that some mushrooms can make people hallucinate, and some can make people die suddenly. What kind of white stems and red umbrellas, they lie on the board after eating. Could it be these fungi or spores that make people die? Those Hun soldiers had hallucinations? That's why they said they encountered the undead from hell."

"Brother Ji, I know what you're talking about, but it must be eaten. It's really impossible to make people hallucinate just by inhaling."

The four of them didn't go far inside before they found that the walls of the cave began to change.

A rectangular groove began to appear on the wall, and the inside of the groove was filled with something, and many white mycelia grew from it.

Everyone stopped and walked towards the nearest groove.

Ji Han and Eggplant dug out some of the stuffed soil.

It can be clearly seen that there are many finer hyphae in the soil.

Chen Ke judged:

"These hyphae seem to be cultivated artificially, and the grooves should be filled with cultivation soil."

Eggplant felt that there was still little soil dug out, so he shoveled most of the soil with a harpoon, and turned the soil directly.

And what fell out of the groove was not only dirt, but also a skull.

This frightened Chen Ke who was looking at the mycelium on the ground.

Seeing the human bone turned out, and then looking at the size of the groove, Ji Han guessed:

"This is not ordinary cultivation soil, this is made from human corpses."

Chen Ke carefully picked up the skull on the ground, and saw that the inside of the bone was already covered with white hairs, which seemed to be completely occupied by colonies.

Chen Ke nodded and said:

"That's true, but why do these people use corpses to grow these fungi?"

Ji Han scratched his head and said:

"I don't know if you have ever played a horror game. After the male protagonist died, his body was reshaped due to mold. Later, no matter what kind of injury he experienced, he cut off his arm, but he could put it back together, and even had his heart ripped out. can all be revived."

Chen Ke continued:

"Brother Ji, you mean the **** of hand sanitizer? I know, but it shouldn't be like that. Look at the living corpses we killed, but we didn't see resurrection."

Since there was no answer to this question for a while, the four of them could only continue walking along the cave.

After the first groove appeared, the grooves behind became more dense, and both sides of the road were like sleeping cars, full of grooves for storing corpses.

In the groove, except for the corpses that had been turned into culture soil, there were no visible corpses, but large white hyphae.

After the four of them advanced nearly 100 meters, Song Qian in front suddenly stopped everyone.

Eggplant asked:

"What's wrong, Song Qian? Did you step on a mine?"

Song Qian didn't reply, but turned off the flashlight in her hand, then pointed to the front and said:

"Look there."

I saw a faint white light about seven or eight meters away in front of me, and it was still twinkling.

The four immediately took up their weapons and stood on guard.

Seeing that everyone was ready to deal with it, everyone walked forward cautiously again.

Whose Christmas tree was mailed to the wrong place when there is still light in such a deep catacomb?

As Ji Han and Eggplant slowly lifted the last layer of mycelium, a strange scene appeared in front of everyone.

The front of the passage is no longer arched, but a circular tomb.

The surrounding walls are still filled with grooves for storing corpse culture soil~www.wuxiamtl.com~ but the density is obviously lower than the outside.

In the center of the circular room is a hole about half a meter long.

The hole is not a regular circle, without any decoration, as if the floor was pierced, and the hole appeared unexpectedly.

And there are a lot of hyphae extending from the hole.

But what was different from what I saw just now was that these hyphae were shining white, and they were as thick as a thigh.

It can hardly be said to be mycelium, but more like a large plant that emits light.

The four stood in place, watching everything in front of them, and none of them acted rashly.

It was Eggplant who broke the silence first:

"What do you mean? Did you chop up this giant glowing cauliflower, or something?"

Ji Han looked around and found that there seemed to be a certain distance behind this giant colony hole, and there was a platform standing there.

He suggested:

"Don't touch this thing, there is still a long way to go, let's go over and have a look, it's important to find the divine pillar, and try not to disturb the things inside."

It's nothing to kill and clear the game after playing the game, but it's really powerful to sneak in and prevent the enemy from discovering it.

The four of them carefully followed Ji Han, along the left side of the circular tomb, bypassing the giant mycelium in the middle, and walked inside.

Fortunately, the giant hyphae that drilled out of the cave didn't respond, but Ji Han stopped in place just as he was about to walk into the aisle inside.

Because he saw a person sitting on the steps of the aisle in front, wearing clothes made of cow and sheepskin, with disheveled hair, and a machete on his waist.

Sitting there in a daze on the steps of the aisle, staring motionlessly at the giant hyphae that drilled out of the hole.

And the most frightening thing is that the body of the sitting person has not rotted in the slightest.
