As the creature roared, the 'unfinished products' of the plague suddenly lit up, and the entire cave was instantly illuminated by the light.
The heads of the plague leaders were covered in layers of glowing mycelium. They seemed to glow according to the creature's roar. Lin could see the creature's appearance clearly. Its lower body was indeed like a fat larva, but its upper body was like a praying mantis. It looked like a creature that hadn't fully evolved.
Perhaps this creature should be called … Fungus Overlord? It looked like a leader, even though it didn't have a single guard.
The Fungus Overlord looked around with its three large compound eyes. Even though it had lit up the cave, it couldn't see the hidden assassin. Lin, on the other hand, was carefully observing it.
Its body wasn't covered in mycelium, but it had the purple shell of a fungus. Its abdomen looked soft, but it was actually hard. Its body was about ten meters long, and its upper body was about four meters tall when it stood up. Lin felt that it was different from other fungus monsters. It was a rather unique creature.
The poison needle had been deflected, so Lin decided to have the assassin aim at the soft part of its abdomen. Its abdomen had a segmented structure. Lin aimed at the gap between two segments.
Fire!
A poison needle flew out at high speed and pierced the gap, but Lin could feel that it didn't pierce the flesh. Instead, it was stuck there.
The needle had a dissolving liquid on it, but it had no effect. It seemed that the Fungus Overlord's shell could resist the dissolving liquid.
The Fungus Overlord shrieked. It seemed to be very sensitive to something touching its body. It moved its large body in the direction of the poison needle. The assassin immediately moved away from the spot.
The Fungus Overlord rushed to the spot but found nothing. It looked around in confusion. Suddenly, its gaze locked onto the assassin who was moving around …
Even though Lin could synchronize her color and movement perfectly, she could still see some traces of the assassin's movement. The Fungus Overlord had locked onto this trace.
Suddenly, it let out a loud cry and charged towards the assassin. Its huge body was extremely fast when it ran, and it crushed the assassin to pieces at an extremely fast speed.
Then, the surroundings returned to normal.
The Fungus Overlord clearly didn't believe that there was only one. It continued to look around. As long as the assassin didn't move, it wouldn't be able to see them. However, if they moved, the Fungus Overlord might be able to see them.
This was an interesting battle. Lin had already discovered the Fungus Overlord's weakness. It couldn't see behind it, so shooting needles was rather boring. Lin decided to test the Fungus Overlord's shell directly.
Ten assassins gathered behind the Fungus Overlord and rushed it!
The Fungus Overlord seemed to have noticed the assassins' footsteps. It immediately turned around, but its huge body was too slow to turn around. At this time, the assassins had already jumped onto its body. They used their sharp claws to scratch at its carapace to test the toughness of the carapace. At the same time, they also secreted several types of dissolving fluid, changing the dissolving fluid every second to see which one worked.
Lin sensed the Fungus Overlord's rage. It began to rampage through the cavern, bending its forelimbs to reach behind it in an attempt to grab the fungus monsters. An assassin who was too slow to dodge was caught by the Fungus Overlord's claws. The Fungus Overlord immediately tore the assassin to pieces.
After tearing the assassin to pieces, the Fungus Overlord slammed its body into the head of a nearby plague leader. The strong vibrations caused two assassins to fall from its body. The Fungus Overlord instantly determined where they fell and stomped them into paste with its limbs.
This creature's intelligence was extraordinary. At the very least, its reaction speed was extremely fast. However, there were still seven assassins on its body. One of them had already discovered the Fungus Overlord's weakness. Its shell was resistant to many dissolving liquids, but the shell near its tail was somewhat different. It was much more fragile, and one of the assassins had already left a wound there.
The Fungus Overlord was extremely sensitive to touch, so it was even more unbearable for it to be injured. The creature suddenly retracted all its limbs and rolled on the ground, instantly crushing all the assassins on its body into pieces.
After rolling, the Fungus Overlord kept wiping its body on a nearby head, as if trying to wipe off all the blood and limbs on its body. It seemed to be very sensitive to other things touching its body.
However, while wiping its body, the Fungus Overlord's movements gradually became sluggish. It seemed to have become dizzy, and after a while, it weakly lay on the ground, motionless.
In fact, those assassins were used to kill themselves. This was exactly what Lin had predicted. The crushed assassins released a large amount of gas from their bodies. This was a special kind of paralyzing gas. The Fungus Overlord inhaled a large amount of this gas during its movements, causing its body to slowly become sluggish until it could no longer move.
However, it wouldn't die yet. It could still maintain its consciousness, but it couldn't control its body. The other assassins in the surroundings surrounded the Fungus Overlord. They revealed their original colour and jumped onto the Fungus Overlord's body to slowly cut it apart.
The assassins gathered at the Fungus Overlord's tail and used their dissolving liquid and sharp claws to slowly cut open the Fungus Overlord's outer shell. They then injected some small troops into the Fungus Overlord's body to observe its internal structure.
Because the Fungus Overlord was still conscious, it could clearly feel its body being cut apart. Its emotions were filled with intense anger. All of its limbs were trembling slightly, as if it was trying to move with all its might, but it couldn't. The poison had severed the connection between its brain and its limbs.
The first thing the minions injected into the Fungus Overlord's large abdomen was a particularly large reproductive organ. It seemed that the Fungus Overlord was indeed a queen type creature. Although there were fungi in the Fungus Overlord's blood and organs, the amount was relatively small. Lin felt that the Fungus Overlord wasn't completely infected.
Then, the next thing to do was to take a look at its brain …
"Uuu!" The Fungus Overlord suddenly let out a loud cry. It swayed its limbs and stood up shakily!
Did the poison only last for such a short time? And almost at the same time, the ground here shook violently. Floating astronomy.
