Chapter 64: 72 Dylan, you've been strengthened

Opening his eyes, he was back in the familiar mushroom house.

As Dylan got up, the mycelium connected to the mycelium carpet on his back broke one by one.

He picked up the wool cloth on the side, wiped the stickiness on his back clean, and then put on his clothes.

He had now fully adapted to the small inconveniences in the life of a mushroom person.

"Finally awake? How do you feel?" The Boss's voice suddenly sounded in his consciousness.

Right, this wasn't an ordinary sleep.

Before, the Boss said something about improving his survival rate and seemed to have added skills to him again.

He felt like he wasn't much different from a Puji...

Dylan stood by the mushroom house, feeling the changes after waking up.

[Acceleration LV6]

He drew the long sword at his waist and tried to swing it.

Downward slash! Straight stab! Spinning slash!

They were all separate movements, but because of the acceleration, they felt as smooth as flowing water!

"This feeling is really amazing!"

"No, you can't test it like this."

"Then how..."

Following the Boss's words, four Puji walked out of the mushroom forest.

Familiar scales, familiar four blade-edged tentacles, they were mass-produced melee Puji—last time two of them made Dylan run everywhere.

Looking at the four Puji approaching together, Dylan retreated two steps very honestly.

"Boss... how about starting with two first?"

"If you dare to just run, I'll let Xiao Hei fight you."

Gulp—

What cruel words!

The Boss must be joking, right?

Dylan glanced at Xiao Hei, who was eating Puji and watching the show in the distance, and tried to recall the power of her claws...

Courage surged out of his body instantly!

"It's just four Puji!"

Watching Dylan rush up and fight back and forth with the four melee Puji without falling behind.

Sure enough, [Acceleration] is easy to use!

Without a disadvantage in speed, Dylan relied on more seasoned positioning so that the four Puji couldn't surround him.

He even found an opportunity to slash a Puji's body first without getting hurt himself.

Although due to insufficient attack power, he only cut open the scales and didn't cause much damage.

But that was enough.

Lin Jun gave him [Acceleration] originally to save his life; if you can't beat them, just hide, just run.

"That's enough."

Because Dylan couldn't cause fatal damage to the Puji, as time passed, he gradually ran out of physical strength and fell into a disadvantage.

The effect of [Acceleration] had been tested, so Lin Jun simply called a stop and let the few Puji retreat.

Dylan sat down on the spot, looking at his hands with slight excitement.

Too strong!

The current him, if he met the three people from the information broker again, could win head-on without sneaking.

This feeling of strength advancing by leaps and bounds was something he had never experienced in his life!

It was too fascinating.

Of course, Dylan wasn't carried away by power; he still remembered his purpose.

"Boss, then when do we set off?"

"Don't rush, you lie back first, I'll add another ability to you."

"Still coming?" Dylan was a little worried about delaying too much time.

"Nearly two months of journey, it doesn't matter if it's one or two days." Lin Jun said impatiently.

To add skills to Dylan, the entire mushroom garden hadn't produced new Puji for two days.

Why was he being picky!

Dylan scratched his head: "Boss, what other ability do you want to add?"

"Magic storage."

——

Night Owl stood on the roof of the carriage, looking into the distance.

There was a battle happening over there.

The carriage cover suddenly made a sound of fabric rubbing, and Ivan had also been woken up, using [Detection Spell] towards the front.

"Human, human, wind wolf, wind wolf king..."

Ivan's voice suddenly went up eight points.

"It's monsters besieging the caravan, hurry up and help them!"

Dozens of wind wolves were besieging a caravan with more than a dozen soldiers.

The soldiers backed against the carriage, twelve long spears formed a thorny iron ring outside the carriage, and every spear shaft was stained with gray-blue wolf hair.

In the middle were two casters, constantly throwing magic into the wolf pile.

This allowed them to barely avoid being drowned in the wave after wave of attacks by the wind wolves.

"Stand together! Stand together! Don't leave any gaps, if these beasts dare to come forward, poke their dog heads!"

The guard captain shouted to command the soldiers, and he wasn't idle either, poking a wind wolf that was closer to death with a spear.

However, this move seemed to give the wind wolf king, who had been observing on a rock in the distance, a chance.

With a short howl, a wind blade shot out from the wind wolf king's mouth, rushing straight towards the guard captain who was trying to pull the spear head out of the wolf corpse.

Clang—

The wind blade hit the iron armor and failed to penetrate, but the sudden impact made the guard captain fall backward.

The spear formation had a gap, and the wind wolves didn't give the guard captain a chance to stand back, scrambling to rush over from here.

The soldiers on both sides were soon knocked down by the pack of wolves, and the defense line collapsed instantly.

The guard captain himself was also pounced on by two wolves, biting his arm.

It's over!

Just when everyone was in despair, a black shadow flashed like the wind.

The guard captain saw in surprise that the two wind wolves on him suddenly sprayed a large amount of blood from their necks.

The wolf bodies collapsed, and the wolf heads were still biting on his bracers.

Not just these two, all the wolves that rushed up were beheaded in a very short time.

"Ice Storm!"

A slightly old voice came from afar.

Immediately, cold wind blew past the front of the caravan.

The remaining dozens of wind wolves, including the wind wolf king who was standing proudly on the rock, turned into motionless ice sculptures after the cold wind.

Even though the caster deliberately avoided the caravan, the cold air that drifted over still made the guard captain shiver.

"Are you all okay?" Nova walked over with Ivan and Gal.

The guard captain looked around, his men were all injured, but it didn't seem too serious.

"Thanks, we're saved."

"No," the guard captain suddenly remembered something, "Hurry and save Mena!"

"Mena?"

"Priest! She was separated by the wolf pack and ran into the forest!"

Hearing this, Ivan immediately scanned the forest and soon pointed out a direction.

"Night Owl, that way!"

Night Owl, who was still observing the ice sculptures, ran towards the direction pointed by Ivan at a very fast speed.

Soon, a few whimpers of wind wolves came from the forest.

After a while, Night Owl walked out of the forest with a priest who was covered in dust and had half her clothes torn.

Seeing this, the guard captain breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, I was fast, her light curtain was almost bitten through." Night Owl said with a smile, pointing to the priest named Mena.

After the guard captain took back the priest, he thanked Nova and the others repeatedly.

"Are you also escorting the priest to Covenant City?" Nova asked.

The guard captain nodded, but looking at the carriage with a damaged wheel, he couldn't help but show a wry smile.

Nova also noticed their situation, thinking it was on the way anyway.

"Do you need me to help you take the priest over?"

"Re... really thank you so much!" The guard captain bowed and thanked.
