This Summoner Is Too Powerful

Chapter 751: Chapter 520: What Is This Demon Village? (2)

Matched with the mushroom people’s aura, it turned into this kind of fake-cute ferocity.

After observing for a bit, these mushroom people didn’t seem to be aggressive.

Even if they really were aggressive, they didn’t look all that scary.

So everyone continued moving toward the village entrance.

"Oh, we’ve got guests!"

"Gu-gu-da!"

Seeing them arrive, the mushroom person closest to the entrance jumped up.

Its loud shout immediately drew more mushroom people over.

"How rare, they look like humans~ gu-gu-da~"

"Welcome, welcome, rare human guests, gu-gu-da!"

"Welcome to Evil Mushroom Village, gu-gu-da-da!"

Their attitude was very warm and hospitable.

It’s just that Li Pu kept feeling like he’d gone back to the card table, playing a mushroom deck against someone.

And he finally figured out what that familiar smell was—it was the smell of mushrooms.

[Damn!]

Straw Man: Come accept death, you little punks!

Seeing these mushroom people, Straw Man was suddenly hit by traumatic memories.

It started taking two steps in one, wanting to rush up and beat them to death.

It still remembered those days in Gu-gu Valley very clearly.

Back then those mushroom people had relied on their numbers and harassed it and Chacha all day long.

"Hold it."

Luckily Li Pu noticed in time and stopped it.

"Demon Village? Evil Mushroom Village?"

Qian Shanshan tilted her head. Something felt off somewhere.

"Everyone, uh, mushroom folks."

"I’d like to ask, where is this place?"

Long Ren stepped forward, putting on a friendly expression.

"We already said Evil Mushroom Village, are you deaf or something!"

"Gu-gu-da!"

One of the mushroom people answered viciously.

"...Why does it know my name?"

Long Ren looked back at Wu Guinan, totally innocent.

"Oh, it said ’deaf person,’ not ’Long Ren.’"

Wu Guinan once again activated his cross-dimensional ability to distinguish similar-sounding words.

"But these mushroom people are way too fierce-looking."

He added right after.

"No no no, we were just born with villain faces, gu-gu-da!"

"It doesn’t mean any harm, gu-gu-da-da~"

A mushroom person spoke up to explain for its companion.

"Mushroom friends, may I ask which world this is?"

Qian Shanshan rephrased Long Ren’s question more clearly.

But her question left all the mushroom people stunned.

Then they started looking at each other, whispering among themselves.

"So they really are humans from the outside world, gu-da."

"Should we fleece them a bit? Gu-gu-da-da."

"Great idea, I approve, gu."

"Approved, gu."

Only, their so-called whispering was loud enough that even Li Pu and the others could hear it.

Wu Guinan and Long Ren heard those words and wanted to blow up on the spot, but Li Pu stopped them.

There’s that saying about not offending the local snakes when you’re the dragon from elsewhere, and with so many unknowns right now, it’s better not to piss off the natives.

It’s not that they couldn’t beat them, but if they offended them, they might not get the information they wanted.

Better see first how exactly they planned to fleece them.

If it wasn’t some sky-high demand, it wouldn’t hurt to humor them.

"You want information from here, gu-gu-da!"

"Then have a card game with us, gu-da!"

"If you win, we’ll tell you, gu-da-gu-da, hehehe!"

The leading mushroom person finished and immediately showed a scheming evil grin.

This proposal earned it a thumbs-up from the mushrooms nearby, who thought it was very wise.

"..." x5

But when Li Pu and the others heard this, they fell silent.

These mushroom people really deserved to be mushroom people.

As everyone went quiet, they all turned their eyes toward Li Pu.

Clearly, the representative player had already been chosen.

Three minutes later, a mushroom person collapsed to its knees in front of the card table.

"H-how is this possible?! Gu-gu-da!"

Its voice was weak and drained.

"Holy crap, what kind of human is this guy, gu-gu-da-da!"

"Our town’s card king actually lost so cleanly, goo goo da!"

"So strong, is this the card skill from another world, the deck from another world, goo da goo da!"

The mushroom people on the side were also exclaiming in amazement.

"..."

Listening to them, Li Pu had already fallen silent for who knows the how-many-th time today.

The mushroom person who had just played cards with him, he estimated the level was only around Silver.

With just that level, it already counts as the town’s card king?

He’d heard that some alien races, although possessing full emotions and intelligence, might have severe IQ defects in certain areas; it seemed mushroom people belonged to this type.

But these mushroom people were still quite good at keeping their word, and started introducing the situation here for everyone.

This is the Mushroom World, a world ruled by mushroom people.

The Mushroom World has several countries, and the Evil Mushroom Kingdom is one of them. Most mushroom people here are born with fierce-looking faces, so they’re called "evil mushrooms", but it doesn’t mean they’re all evil mushroom people.

Evil Mushroom Village is a small village in a remote area of the Evil Mushroom Kingdom. Many villages in the Evil Mushroom Kingdom share this name, just with different numbers.

This Evil Mushroom Village is No. 7788.

After listening to this group of mushroom people’s introduction, the expressions of the few of them immediately turned bad.

Because this wasn’t one of those fragment mini-worlds of some otherworld, but an entire large-scale otherworld.

The key point was that not every large otherworld exists in a spatial rift that connects to Blue Star.

And even if there is, they don’t know where the exact entrances and exits are.

"If you have more questions, you can go find the village chief, goo goo da."

"He’s the most knowledgeable person in our village, goo goo da da~"

In the end, the mushroom people even pointed them the way.

The village chief’s house wasn’t far from the village entrance. Leaving the summoned beasts there, Li Pu and the others walked a dozen meters or so and arrived.

It was a mushroom-shaped building with a round red cap, and in terms of area it was indeed much larger than the other villagers’ homes.

"Hello, may I ask if there is... goo here."

Li Pu stepped forward and politely knocked the door open.

"Come in."

A deep voice came from inside the house.

So he pushed the door open and went in together with the others.

"This..." x4

Seeing the village chief after walking in, Wu Guinan and the other four were all stunned.

So the reason the village chief’s house was bigger than the others might not be because his status was high.

But because this guy’s body was big.

Compared to those mushroom people whose height only reached their waists, this mushroom village chief was at least four or five times their size.

If he stood up, his height would even exceed two meters.

At this moment he was lying on his side on a big sofa, smacking his lips as he puffed on a pipe while fiercely sizing everyone up.

A whole "I smoke, I look fierce, but I’m a good shroom" vibe.

They had thought the so-called village chief would be an old mushroom with a beard, but unexpectedly it was a big mushroom man.

"Rare guests, rare guests, it’s been a long time since I saw humans, goo—cough cough cough cough cough..."

Before he finished speaking, he started coughing repeatedly.

Puffs of smoke were choked out from his nostrils and mouth.

This bout of coughing lasted several minutes straight, and only when the village chief’s face flushed bright red did it finally stop.

"Sorry, let me catch my breath first."

Facing everyone’s slightly concerned gazes, the village chief raised his hand to indicate he was fine.

Then he picked up the pipe again and took a deep drag.

"Goo cough cough cough cough cough cough cough..."

The violent coughing sounded out once more.

"He’s already symptomatic, and he still dares to smoke."

"He’s not gonna croak, is he?"

"Do mushroom people have the custom of holding a funeral banquet?"

"Do they drink mushroom soup at the banquet?"

"Wow, you’ve got some nasty tastes."

They listened to the coughing while quietly whispering among themselves.

With great difficulty, the village chief’s coughing finally stopped again.

Seeing him endlessly pick up the pipe yet again, Li Pu ran out of patience.

With a thought, he quietly activated Stage 3 of [Gravity Field].

Crack!

The pipe was snapped cleanly into two pieces and fell to the ground.

"..."

The mushroom village chief looked at the broken pipe on the floor, and his expression suddenly brightened: "Now I feel much better!"

"..." x5

This was still the first time Li Pu and the others had interacted with the mushroom-people race, and they couldn’t help feeling they couldn’t quite keep up with their train of thought.

Playing cards with the village chief cost them another three minutes.

After his confidence was ruthlessly crushed, he candidly told them everything he knew.

Once they finished asking their questions, they left the village chief’s house.

It was just that when they came out, none of their expressions looked very good.
