The hall was crowded with hundreds of mushrooms and puppets.
Yet, faced with the invasion, these mushrooms showed no reaction, standing stiffly in place and occasionally trembling.
"Their life force is fading."
Su Huan glanced around thoughtfully.
In the team, Director Xu and his research assistant stepped forward and chopped down several nearby mushrooms. Each mushroom cut open revealed a dry inner part, its core crumbling like rotten wood, leaving only a wrinkled outer layer.
The puppets were the same, each with atrophied muscles, exposing their bones.
Su Huan wanted to ask about the situation with the Fungus Carpet, but the connection was cut off here, so he had to abandon the thought.
Liang Kuan and others spread out to search the entire hall. After dissecting a few bodies, Director Xu came over and said solemnly, "This is a way the Fungus Carpet recovers energy, by reconverting the hard-to-transfer parts into energy and taking it away all at once."
