This Summoner Is Too Powerful

Chapter 755: Chapter 522: Guidance of the God of Mushrooms (Part 2)

As for those 5 Large Mushroom Coins, just to be safe, he distributed one to each person.

Everyone carefully tucked away their Large Mushroom Coins, but none took a closer look.

After all, they were just worth the equivalent of 10 Mushroom Coins each, nothing special to see.

"I’ve heard about your matters."

Just when the group was about to leave again, the Mushroom Merchant spoke up.

"I’ve got a few tidbits of information here that not even the village chief knows, goo-dada!"

That’s what it said.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Li Pu and the others had to halt their steps once more.

Anything related to a way back, even just tidbits, was highly appealing.

"The first tidbit of information."

"That is, the Prophet of Evil Mushroom Kingdom is currently not in the capital."

"Goo-goo-da."

Upon hearing this, Li Pu and the rest were stunned.

The only solution so far was to go to the capital to find the Prophet, and now you tell us he’s not there?

"Don’t look at me like that, it’s just a rumor, just a rumor."

"Goo-goo-da."

Facing their gazes, the Mushroom Merchant shrugged.

But then, it continued to reveal other pieces of information.

Each one was actually a potential possibility for Li Pu and the others to return to Bluestar.

For example, splitting apart the world to create a small world.

According to Bluestar’s terms, it’s like establishing an instance.

Then by breaking the core of the instance, those with the mark of the original world on them would be repelled out when the small world recoils, returning to Bluestar.

But to split the world, one needs to find a special artifact, the Mushroom Knife.

The Mushroom Knife is the national treasure of the neighboring Dao Mushroom Kingdom, obtaining it won’t be easy.

Another way is to find spatial rifts in the Mushroom realm, using the next world as a springboard to find a way back to Bluestar.

However, this method is quite uncertain as the exact location of the spatial rifts is unknown, nor is the danger level of connecting to the next world.

The final method is to find a demon in the Mushroom realm.

A true demon, not just an evil mushroom, is rumored to have the power to grant wishes.

But making a demon grant a wish comes with a price, and where to find a demon is also a big problem.

"Why do I feel like you know more than the village chief?"

After listening to the Mushroom Merchant’s account, Wu Guinan couldn’t help but remark.

Wasn’t the village chief supposed to be the most knowledgeable person around here?

The information from this Mushroom Merchant seems far more reliable than anything they’ve heard from the village chief.

"But it seems that aside from the first method being somewhat clear, the other two sound really vague."

"And borrowing another nation’s treasure might be very difficult, right?"

"It’s hard to say, these mushroom people seem quite gullible."

"You’re right, at least going to Dao Mushroom Kingdom gives us a goal, looking for spatial rifts and demons feels too reliant on luck."

Facing the Mushroom Merchant, the group began discussing in low voices.

"Actually, after you left, I did a divination, goo-goo-da."

The Mushroom Merchant’s words seemed unfinished.

As expected, as soon as it spoke, it drew their attention once again.

Especially Li Pu, who felt something was odd but couldn’t pinpoint what.

A simple-minded guy, doing divination?

"The divination was very clear, pointing out a favorable direction for you all, goo-goo-dada."

Saying this, the Mushroom Merchant signaled for the map to be brought over.

Then it pointed to a direction on the map with its hand.

The group took a glance and found that although it slightly deviated, the general direction was still towards Dao Mushroom Kingdom.

With that, it stopped speaking.

It just looked at everyone, both fiercely and smilingly.

"Well then... thank you, sir."

With mixed feelings, Li Pu and the group, eventually left half-convinced.

Even after reaching the village entrance, they were still a bit clueless.

"That Mushroom Merchant was acting all mysterious at the end, can it be trusted?"

Wu Guinan expressed skepticism.

"Should we perhaps gather information at Evil Mushroom Kingdom’s capital first, and then decide?"

Chang Shoushang proposed a more cautious view.

"It’s hard to say, if we make a wasted trip, we could lose a lot of time."

Qian Shanshan was leaning towards going directly to Dao Mushroom Kingdom, thinking at worst there should also be a Prophet there, right?

When opinions were divided, they looked towards Li Pu, leaving the decision to him.

"Then let’s... head in that direction."

Li Pu pointed, conspicuously, in the direction suggested by the Mushroom Merchant.

There wasn’t a concrete reason, just a gut feeling.

Felt that the Mushroom Merchant wasn’t lying.

The boss has spoken, so no one had any objections.

After considering, they also did not take No. 2, but instead rode the Rolling Turtle, journeying forward.

The mushroom merchant in the village stood at the entrance of his shop, watching the group slowly disappear into the distance.

"Who exactly are these humans?"

At this moment, there was a slight confusion in his eyes.

Yesterday, the Mushroom God appeared in a dream, instructing him to help these lost humans.

But if that were the case, why not let him directly send them back?

"Indeed, the will of the gods is not easily fathomed."

When those figures completely vanished from sight, he shook his head.

"But at this moment I’m really not in the capital, so it’s not considered deceiving them, right?"

"The divination says this direction is extremely auspicious, with desired answers."

"Who knows what they will encounter."

Anyway, he’s helped all he can.

In the end, gold light flashed off him.

"Hmm? What’s happening to me, Mushroom-Mushroom da?"

The mushroom merchant’s gaze went from clear to cloudy and back to confused.

Remember just now he ate a bite of red bean bun, how did he wake up standing at the shop entrance?

...

The Rolling Turtle journeyed forward, just in the direction pointed by the Evil Mushroom Prophet.

Who knows exactly how far they traveled, anyway, not until nightfall, with stars twinkling, did they finally see lights ahead.

Seemed to be a lone little building in the wilderness.

"Evil Mushroom... Tavern?"

Qian Shanshan read the letters using the light hanging on the signboard.

"Why does it always feel like some sort of shady place."

"Should we go in?"

"Will we get hurt if we go in?"

The three of Chang Wulong commented one after another.

Ever since Wu Guinan’s backside bloomed last time, they hadn’t had any drinks.

Getting out, temporarily stowing the summoned beasts, they pushed open the door.

Then they saw several tables of mushroom people sitting inside.

The bartender warmly welcomed their arrival.

"Welcome, dear guests!"

"Oh~~ Humans! Rare guests!"

"Mushroom-Mushroom da!"

The bartender wore a black eye patch covering the left eye, coupled with those fierce features, he didn’t look like a good mushroom.

Finding a table in the corner, the group sat together.

"You can see what to drink, what to eat."

"We also provide human food here."

"Mushroom-Mushroom da da!"

Saying that, he handed over the drink list and menu.

"Whoa, there’s really mushroom soup here."

"And mushroom stewed chicken."

"What is mushroom ice cream?"

"Feels a bit weird, why is the menu all mushrooms?"

While they were commenting on the menu, Li Pu began to scrutinize the mushroom folks at those tables.

They looked fierce, not to mention they were mostly tattooed.

For example, red hearts, pig KiKi, mushroom heads, plumber avatars, and various patterns.

And their attire was also unconventional.

Some had ear, nose, or eyebrow rings, while others had their mushroom heads cut into Mohawk styles.

The key point was that many mushroom folks had weapons at their feet or on their benches or tables, large knives, spears, bows, and the like.

At this moment, they were all eating meat heartily, drinking and making merry.

The mushroom folks who happened to meet Li Pu’s gaze would give him a challenging "What are you looking at?" stare.

In human standards, there didn’t seem to be a single good mushroom present.

Wu Guinan earlier suspected it was a shady establishment; he thought it seemed more like a gang of hooligans and bandits.

Bam!

Just then, the tavern door was suddenly pushed open with force.

This provocative noise made all the mushroom folks present halt their actions, turning their gazes to the doorway.

When Li Pu and his companions had entered earlier, these guys hadn’t reacted so neatly.

Li Pu also looked to the doorway.

Found the newcomer was a mushroom person with thick brows and big eyes, exuding righteousness.

Following it was a... slime?
