Everyone looked at him strangely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is the boss... stepping on a nail?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief screaming, Kasper quickly fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss?\" Gallon, who was closest, asked tentatively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His entire future now rested on Kasper. Among those present, he was more concerned about Kasper than the two pirate ship mates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kasper's arm shook slightly, and then he raised it and waved it very casually, signaling that it was fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Gallon breathed a sigh of relief. However, the two Gold-tier ship mates, after seeing that stiff waving motion, all took a step back and raised their weapons toward Kasper at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell is that?\" The ship mate's roar carried a hint of horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's wrong?\" Gallon hadn't reacted at all. How did the pirates of the Blood Shark have an internal strife all of a sudden?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was going to be an internal strife, shouldn't they have finished off those people on the Wind Feather first?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And seeing that he hadn't fooled the two pirate ship mates, Lin Jun was a bit disappointed as he controlled the Scout Puji to pull the mycelium tentacles out of Kasper's body, and with a casual swipe, slit the throat of the bewildered Gallon in front of him—he had originally thought he could sneak attack another Gold-tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Gerhard didn't expect Gallon to sneak attack, Gallon didn't expect to be attacked in front of Kasper, or rather, attacked by the stool Kasper was sitting on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gallon clutched his throat with one hand and grabbed wildly at his waist with the other. He wanted to take out a potion from the bag at his waist; as long as he treated the slit throat in time... The Scout added another slash to his wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not bothering with the black fatty waiting to die by his feet, Lin Jun turned his attention to the two Gold-tier pirates who were terrified but ready for battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, Lin Jun didn't want to deal with this matter. Once he did, he would be exposed. Although he could make up for it later by saying it was a magic pet controlled by Dylan, there would always be flaws that couldn't withstand inspection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the pirates just robbed some cargo and money, and left the people and the ship, Lin Jun would have turned a blind eye and let it pass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't expect this group of people to be so greedy that they wanted to capture everyone as slaves!?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doing this seemed to have broken the rules here, and he didn't know what was going on in the islands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jun naturally couldn't let Dylan take a detour to experience slave life, so he could only meddle in this business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had originally planned to sneak attack when the pirates fought with the Wind Feather and the captain attracted all the attention, but he didn't expect this cannon fodder teammate to collapse before the fight even started...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now the Scout was facing two Gold-tiers alone, and there might be a Wind-element mage on the Blood Shark. He had to finish the battle quickly before the other side reacted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had to know that there were still more than thirty pirates on the other side. Although they were all between Copper-tier and Silver-tier, so many people were also a trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On his side, the only one he was sure could be used was Dylan. Counting the two skill items, he could be worth half a Gold-tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for those sailors and passengers?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes looking at the Scout Puji were no better than the pirates', all filled with horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who let the Scout Puji's current image be a murderous stool...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kasper, who had everything under control just a moment ago, was now lying on the deck with blood almost drained from the wound in his lower body. Who wouldn't be shocked to see that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no other way; he could only bite the bullet and go. He just hoped that fear could deter those ordinary pirates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pfft—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Puji took a step forward. Except for the two pirate ship mates, everyone else took a step back, and the sailors in the distance were no exception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dylan raised the long sword in his hand, intending to cooperate with the Scout Puji immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before Lin Jun was ready to launch an attack, he stopped abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why was [Magic Perception] suddenly not working?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because there was no fungal network to provide vision, Lin Jun equipped the Scout Puji with various perception skills: light, airflow, sound waves, and magic power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all turned on simultaneously in combat state, and Lin Jun could handle it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, the perspective of magic perception suddenly became blurry. To be precise, it was obscured by the magic power that suddenly appeared around the Wind Feather... like... fog!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It really was foggy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In [Light Perception], the visibility around had decreased a lot at some point, and even the three moons in the sky were about to be swallowed. It just wasn't as obvious as the change in the surrounding magic power, which made Lin Jun ignore it for a moment. And this fog was becoming thicker and thicker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was definitely not ordinary fog; at least, it was impossible for ordinary fog to contain such rich magic power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the minute the Scout Puji stopped, the radiance of the moons quickly disappeared until only a faint glimmer remained, and everyone else present finally noticed this sudden thick fog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it the mist?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don't know who asked, but this sentence quickly caused panic among the crowd, whether they were sailors or pirates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The mist? Isn't that a death sentence?\" A pirate stumbled and knocked over a wooden barrel nearby. The fear flickering in his pupils was three times thicker than when he witnessed Kasper's death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is that possible? This is so far from the border!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn't the stool that killed the boss a mist monster?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it, who cares if it is, let's sail away quickly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about the guys on this ship?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kasper is dead, who cares about these guys!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was clearly chaos within the pirates, and the two ship mates looked at each other and also had thoughts of retreating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moons were completely covered by the thick fog, and the ship fell into darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a ray of light appeared in the darkness. It was Gerhard, who had caught his breath, lighting up the illumination crystal in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is a moving mist. I'm afraid it's too late to run now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nonsense, what do you know, you guy?\" a pirate said in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gerhard suddenly roared loudly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Twenty years ago, the Golden Griffin, I encountered it west of Jujiaodao!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of the 82 people on the ship, only 3 survived!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We are all in danger now. If we act individually, we will inevitably end up the same way as back then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, no matter if you are a pirate, my crew, or some passenger, listen to me!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, no one will survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you don't believe me, you can come over and kill me now. Since we're going to die anyway, it's better to be killed by a sword!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gerhard's last sentence was aimed at the pirates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pirates were momentarily deterred. However, facing Gerhard, who was an enemy just a moment ago, no one dared to listen rashly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until an old pirate said: \"The Golden Griffin... I seem to have heard of it. It did sink in the mist, but I heard it was only when crossing the border...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's a rumor!\" Gerhard said again, \"From the captain to the first mate, the Golden Griffin was full of famous figures in the islands back then. How could they not distinguish the location of the border? It was the moving mist, the mist that was as impossible to guard against as today, that caused the Golden Griffin to be trapped in it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, even Dylan and Lin Jun almost believed Gerhard's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pirate first mate gritted his teeth: \"Fine! We'll listen to you for now. What do you say we do? I warn you, don't play any tricks. If we can get through safely, we'll be fine with each other afterwards. If you dare to have any crooked thoughts, I'll slaughter you on the spot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As you wish!\" Gerhard leaned against the wall and stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what about that thing?\" the pirate second mate asked, pointing at the Scout Puji.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This asked Gerhard a question. He really didn't know what this murderous stool was; it was completely different from the enemies in the mist in his impression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the brief silence of the crowd, Dylan scratched his head and walked out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That... is my magic pet...\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1484,"2026-06-17T15:02:37.041Z","2026-06-18T03:34:23.509Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","3306126c88ca55041657a2b69c5ce64742aface9443038b70b2a0b204c1fe1a0","this-dungeon-is-growing-mushrooms-chapter-120","this-dungeon-is-growing-mushrooms-chapter-118",165,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-dungeon-has-sprouted-mushrooms-cover.jpg"]
