Chapter 806: Chapter 792: Raising the Battle Flag

Boom——Boom——

The massive blood beast, under Darean’s control, relentlessly assaulted the city walls of Mushroom City. The defensive runes floated out from the wall structure, lighting up layer by layer and extinguishing one by one under the collision.

On the city walls, the Puki poured mushroom cannons onto the blood beasts below. As soon as one batch exhausted its magic power, another batch of Puki quickly replenished their ranks.

Some Puki even jumped down to self-destruct as they approached the enemy.

However, the Puki also endured attacks from the sky.

Blood Lineage members flew in the air, conjuring slender blood arrows that rained down from above.

The blood arrows lost most of their force as they passed through the defensive magic array in the city sky, unable to kill ordinary soldiers directly, but still possessed the ability to instantly kill Puki.

Mushroom City’s defensive system was not to blame; when designing city defenses, no one anticipated relying on Puki as the main force for city defense.

Fortunately, Edin’s illusion devices still operated on the city walls, so many Puki hit by blood arrows burst like bubbles; they were merely phantoms.

Nevertheless, despite this, each attack from the Blood Lineage led to many Puki deaths, among the shattered Puki on the walls, one was dressed in a maid outfit.

...

The doors of Puki’s House were tightly shut, isolating the commotion and chaos outside the city.

The store was quiet, with only Dylan and Bianca, mother and daughter, inside.

All the Puki in the store had been requisitioned by Fa’er; in fact, nearly all of the Puki in the city had been forcibly taken away, not even leaving behind the most useless cannon fodder Puki.

"Boss, what will happen to us?" The girl’s face was devoid of her usual liveliness and was only filled with worry and fear about the unknown future.

Dylan could only pat Bianca’s head, comforting her, "Don’t worry, I’m here. If you feel uneasy, just praise the big boss a few more times in your heart."

Feeling the warmth of Dylan’s palm, Bianca’s expression gradually calmed down.

She raised her hands above her head, fingertips touching, assuming the posture of praising the Mushroom Lord, and closed her eyes, becoming quiet.

Dylan then sat back at the store entrance, vigilantly watching the outside.

At this moment, his fingers were adorned with rings, a jeweled belt was tied around his waist, and a delicate pendant hung around his neck, making him look like a walking jewelry rack, garish yet eye-catching.

These were all skill equipment, in fact.

Other core members, like Lin Jun, directly increased skills; rather than carry skill equipment, it was better to hang more attribute-enhancing equipment.

Only Old Dylan couldn’t keep up with the updates, lacking cultivation value, so Lin Jun simply threw a bunch of skill equipment for him to make do.

And now, it was precisely the time these things came in handy.

On the city walls, guards and Puki were fighting bravely, while inside the city, chaos reigned amidst turmoil.

Brave adventurers joined the defense of Mushroom City with their companions, naturally, there were also evildoers trying to exploit the chaos.

Previously, some criminals even targeted Puki’s House, after all, everyone knew this store had always been thriving.

Dylan used skill equipment to freeze them into ice sculptures, placing them at the entrance, their grim faces with raised knives still frozen in the moment of attack, and afterward, no one dared to trespass.

However, these opportunistic robbers were not the primary cause of the city’s chaos; the real turmoil in the city was caused by people trying to escape.

After all, Mushroom City indeed had an escape route — the space rift in Puki Dungeon!

A large number of people attempting to flee reached the Dungeon entrance, only to find it engulfed in a dense cloud of invasive spores that was almost impossible to disperse.

Though they used magic and potions to traverse the spore mist and reached the entrance, they found a passage filled with towering mushrooms, making further progress impossible.

"Why? Isn’t Fungus Castle our ally? Why won’t they let us pass to take refuge?" Someone pounded on the blocking mushrooms, their palms hitting the mushroom umbrellas with a thudding sound.

There were also Mushroom Worship Sect followers kneeling from a distance, hands together above their heads, fingertips trembling, their voices already carrying sobs: "Has the Mushroom Lord... abandoned us?"

An adventurer kicked the follower aside and stepped forward with an axe: "What the hell Mushroom Lord! Let me in!"

He raised his battle axe, swinging it at the giant mushroom blocking the way.

Suddenly, something magical happened.

Before the axe blade could fall, the large mushroom umbrella wilted inexplicably, its stalk collapsed, cap deflated, and slumped to the ground.

The nearby giant mushrooms followed suit, withered, and soon disappeared into the fungal mat.

The adventurer stood frozen, holding the axe handle, briefly bewildered, then he looked back at his companions behind him, revealing a smug smile.

"Hey, these mushrooms are pretty sensible aaahhhhhhh!"

Several thick tendril-like mycelium reached out, wrapping around his legs, and before anyone could react, dragged him into the darkness of the entrance, leaving two rows of struggling fingernail marks on the ground.

Meanwhile, in the Underground City, the sound of "Puki" echoed, layer upon layer...

...

The city defense of Mushroom City was very robust, but even the strongest city requires corresponding defense forces to be effective.

If Mushroom City had a Duke in place, unless faced with an assault from the Empire’s army, it would be almost impossible to fall.

However, at this moment, Mushroom City’s strongest, Edin, was merely Palace Level and still an illusionist of auxiliary type.

Having no means to deal with the Blood Race Prince Darean, who was constantly attacking the western city walls.

Defensive runes extinguished one after another, revealing more and more breaches on the city walls.

A brave Blood Lineage member seized the moment between rune flickers, flew over the walls, breaking in forcefully.

Two shots from the mushroom cannon hit the Blood Race from behind, marking the final effort of the city wall defenders.

The Blood Race crashed onto the street outside Puki’s House, debris flying.

Upon landing, he casually clawed, making two civilians who hadn’t yet escaped on either side fall, blood gushing from wounds on their necks, forming two crimson long whips in the air.

He flicked his wrist, the long whip swept across, directly collapsing half of Puki’s House’s wall.

Wood fragments flew, dust diffused.

Dylan stood in front of the mother and daughter, the rings on his fingers, gemstones at his waist, and the pendant on his neck all lit up, layered shields like soap bubbles opened in front of him.

Behind him, Bianca closed her eyes, voice trembling with sobs, chanting "Praise the big boss" repeatedly.

The blood whip swung high, striking down at the most threatening presence in the scene, Dylan.

"Big boss——!"

"You should add ’Great’ as a prefix."

Accompanied by the voice appearing in Bianca’s mind, biting cold wind rushed from the street entrance, the Blood Race froze in mid-whip strike, covered from head to toe in frost, even eyelashes turned into ice spikes, and the blood whip that had almost struck Dylan froze in mid-air, unmoving.

Inanna stepped out from the cold wind, an elegant lady composed of pure ice floated behind her.

Marshal Puki hovered in the air, the long, fiery red cape behind him trailing a lengthy stretch in the breeze.

Behind them was the long line of the Third Fungus, still not entirely emerged from the Underground City.

Stepping on the Blood Race’s ice statue, Marshal Puki waved his tendrils.

"Raise the battle flag!"

With Lin Jun’s command, several Blood Lineage members upgraded with [Sensory Enhancement Level 10]were elevated to the battle flag position, their heart-wrenching screams echoing throughout Mushroom City!
