Chapter 489: The Illusion of the Stone Whisperer's Crystal (Part 2)

Seeing this, Brian's eyes suddenly tightened, and he immediately stopped the phantom scroll that was slowly unfolding in front of him like a sudden storm.

Although the figure of the Drow Master was looming in the interplay of light and shadow, like the moon in the fog, he still captured the elusive secrets of the other party with his keen insight and deep understanding of the forces in the Underdark. characteristics and successfully identified his identity.

“It’s really unexpected,” Brian murmured, and unconsciously brushed his hand across his forehead, wiping away a layer of cold sweat. The cold sweat glistened under the faint light. “I originally thought it was just a group of people who were attacked by the Spider God. The spider mages driven by Rose were active in this turmoil in the underground world. Unexpectedly, the reclusive and famous chief mage of ancient Orens City was also involved, and seemed to play a pivotal role."

He frowned and his thoughts surged like a tide.

At this moment, the image of Wizlan, the drow mage, became clearer and clearer in his mind. Combined with the analysis of the current situation, Brian couldn't help but suddenly realized:

"So that's what Wizlan did. What he did was not simply obedience and agreement, he was most likely fighting against the supreme Spider Queen Rose in a secret and firm manner in the dark abyss."

Dang Zhen. As the context of the incident gradually became clear in his mind, Brian's inner feelings changed from the initial nervousness and worry to a strange kind of excitement and expectation.

He originally thought that this would be an apocalyptic catastrophe in which the demon lord used the power of his incarnation to use the Underdark as his own paradise to conquer and harvest the souls of living beings wantonly.

However, the reality showed him a more tortuous and bizarre story: three male mages from the ancient city of Orens, who were once regarded as a vulnerable group by the world, were just like the serfs breaking free from their shackles and singing for freedom. Song, using wisdom and courage to rewrite the fate of this underground world.

Such a turning point undoubtedly made Brian full of strong interest and expectations for the next development, as if he had opened a thrilling legendary novel with his own hands, and every chapter was full of unknowns and challenges.

Without wasting any moment, Brian quickly adjusted his state and immersed himself in endless concentration, like a deep-sea diver diving into the abyss of knowledge without hesitation.

He concentrated his efforts again, and with incomparable determination and perseverance, tried to capture a new clue, an unprecedented piece of information, from the blurred illusion released by the mysterious crystal.

In this quiet and tense atmosphere, the air seemed to become thick and full of tension, and time seemed to stand still at this moment, just waiting for Brian to unlock the secrets in this fantasy world.

Suddenly, with bursts of light and mist fluctuations like twinkling stars, another dream-like image gradually emerged from the chaos, quietly emerging on Brian's pair of eyes full of expectation and joy. In the firm eyes.

The images of this scene slowly unfolded like a film reel, which not only brought stunning images, but also seemed to carry a story that had been sealed for a long time, quietly waiting for Brian to interpret and explore.

He saw a strange and beautiful cave like a fantasy suddenly unfolding before his eyes, like a mysterious picture of intertwined light and shadow.

The colorful light spurts out from the pure and majestic life force deep in the cave, blending and reflecting with the ancient light hidden under the earth's veins, jumping and flowing in the darkness, as if it were the earth The rhythm of the heart beating.

Under this magnificent light, Brian was keenly aware of a deep and gloomy atmosphere. It was that the life force inside the cave was gradually disappearing in an irreversible way, as if it was infected by some evil. The power erodes, and the life force turns into nothing, slowly floating in every inch of the cave.

This process is both regrettable and terrifying. In the center of the cave, a strange mushroom quietly emerged from the ground. It grew at an alarming rate, growing taller and stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Pustules began to grow on it, flowing with putrid juice, and the roots frantically absorbed nutrients like greedy tentacles, becoming extremely thick. The fungus grows continuously until it reaches the top of the cave, forming a majestic fungus tower full of strange beauty.

In front of this shocking spectacle, the two myconids approached cautiously and with awe. They did not notice the carpet woven by countless decaying creatures under their feet. The fragments of life were broken into pieces. Silently shattered beneath their steps.

Brian could feel their thoughts becoming strangely active at this moment, as if they were being pulled by some powerful will.

When they knelt down to worship devoutly, Brian's heart tightened, knowing that they had fallen into a hopeless abyss.

Just when this tense and mysterious atmosphere reached its climax, a voice suddenly sounded from the cloud of snowflake-like spores falling in the air. The voice was low and magnetic, seeming to carry ancient echoes and endless wisdom.

It ordered the myconids to prepare an unprecedented gift, and an unknown ritual was about to be performed in this cave where death and life coexisted.

The image instantly dissipated in the air, as if traces had been erased by an invisible eraser, leaving only nothingness and silence.

There was a thoughtful light in Brian's eyes, which was a unique insight into the world and predicting the future.

“It seems that the cunning and persistent Fungus Queen has not stopped because of the fiasco at her last wedding. Her evil intentions are still there and she is ambitious.”

He whispered to himself, with a confident and calm smile on his lips, "I have torn apart her machinations under the sun, but despite this, she still refused to give up and tried to make a comeback."

He smiled slightly. He raised his head and said to himself with a smile:

"Fortunately, I had already anticipated the enemy's plans and laid out tight defense lines one after another. Even if she personally transformed into a terrifying existence and came here in person, I'm afraid she would only end up like this. After all, what is in front of her is not only those mushrooms in the material world that were mutated by mushrooms and the manpower arranged in advance, but also the "myconids" that I carefully designed and took full precautions in advance. God's powerful secret weapon."

Obviously, deep in that complex and mysterious forest of fungi, everything is immersed in a strange and regular calm, as if the rhythm of nature is here. It was followed accurately, without any strange signs to reveal the impending changes.

After Brian felt slightly relieved, he continued to stare at the shimmering crystal in front of him.

This crystal is like a microscopic window into the underdark, revealing the unpredictable scenes of those areas hidden in the darkness. He stared intently, like a fortune teller who had insight into the world, touching the unreachable distance with his heart, trying to decipher the secret language hidden at the junction of light and darkness.

As the shimmer of light danced in the crystal, Brian seemed to be able to feel the changes that other areas in the Underdark were experiencing.

Perhaps it is the life force quietly growing in the deep caves, or the strange light suddenly glowing from the ancient ruins, or perhaps some unknown creature is preparing to break the original ecological balance.
