Chapter 42 Sleeping Mushroom

Many people may not be able to find ten in the Moonlight Forest in three or five days, which is too much of a waste of time.

Only first-class wizards often come to accept this task. This is one of the few tasks that can earn magic stones, and it is also safe.

Herag continued to look through some information about sleeping mushrooms. This kind of mushroom usually grows 20 to 30 centimeters below the ground.

Veterans usually observe whether the ground is suitable for the growth of sleeping mushrooms based on experience, and then dig up the ground to see if there are any sleeping mushrooms.

The success rate of this method is not high, and veterans also need to spend a lot of time.

"Maybe you can let Deep Blue try." After comprehensive consideration, Herag thought that this task should be more suitable for him.

This task does not need to be accepted. After picking the sleeping mushrooms, you can go directly to the affairs hall to exchange for magic stones.

After Herag decided, he began to prepare and needed to go to the flea market to buy some related things.

The Moonlight Forest is located in the north of the northern forest area. It takes an hour to walk and only more than 20 minutes to take a carriage.

There is a post station at the intersection of the northern forest area. You can take a carriage to the Moonlight Forest. The fare is two silver coins. Formal wizards are free, but formal wizards usually don't take carriages.

When Herag was waiting for the car at the post station, he found that there were three other people waiting for the car, all wearing wizard apprentice robes.

"Are you going to the Moonlight Forest too?" After a short silence, a fat wizard brought up the topic.

"Yes, I... I'm going there for the first time." A thin wizard apprentice said nervously.

After a brief understanding, the four people got to know each other a little better.

The fat wizard is called McKen, the thin wizard is called Luka, and the other is called Sonny.

McKen has been here three times and earned a magic stone and some gold coins in total. The other two are here for the first time like Herag.

"Don't go deep into the Moonlight Forest after entering it, just stay on the edge." McKen introduced.

"Why? The danger level of this mission should be quite low," Luka asked.

McCann explained, "The mission itself is not dangerous, but there are not only monsters in the depths of the Moonlight Forest, but also people from the Green Hut."

"Green Hut? The Moonlight Forest is quite far away from them, so it should be difficult to encounter it." Luka said, recalling the terrain.

"The probability is indeed relatively small, but someone once went too deep and ran into someone from the Green Hut, and was tortured to death, and the body was hung at the entrance of the Moonlight Forest." McCann looked terrified as if he had experienced it personally.

Sony then said, "It is indeed possible. People from the Green Hut will also come to the Moonlight Forest to pick some resources, so it is better for us to keep a certain distance. We are all first-class wizard apprentices and cannot go too deep."

Herrag listened to them talking about this information and stayed aside silently without saying anything.

He had learned this information before, and someone mentioned it in the chat tavern.

After a few people talked for a while, the carriage finally arrived.

The horse pulling the carriage was a hybrid of a monster called Hellfoot, with flames on its hooves, and it was very fast.

There is no driver in the carriage in Moonlight Forest. Hellfoot will pull the carriage back and forth on a fixed route, and then go back to the stable to rest when it gets dark.

The space in the carriage is not big, and can accommodate six people.

Hellfoot looked back and confirmed that Herag and others were on the carriage before they started running. The flaming horse hooves left some burnt marks when they ran past. There are many such footprints on this road.

It is early morning now, and Herag and his friends need to hurry up and come back before sunset.

No matter where you are, the forest at night must be extremely dangerous.

More than 20 minutes later, the four people got off the car at the post station at the entrance of Moonlight Forest.

Hellfoot will stay here for a while after arriving at the post station, and then continue to move forward when no one gets off the car.

The trees in the Moonlight Forest are very thick and tall, and they can be seen as trees that have grown for many years.

There are generally dense low shrubs under the trees, and there are some obvious paths at the entrance, which are traces of people walking all year round.

If you go a little further inside, you can't see the road at all. It's very difficult to walk through such a jungle.

Herag was prepared. He drew the long sword at his waist and cleared the way while walking.

He picked a direction and started to search forward. The other three did the same. They each picked a direction and started to search for sleeping mushrooms.

"Deep Blue, start to detect underground, target sleeping mushrooms." Herag gave an order and asked Deep Blue to scan the surroundings.

After his physical data was improved, Deep Blue's scanning range was expanded to 250 meters.

Sleeping mushrooms are generally located 20 to 30 centimeters underground, which is completely enough.

The surface of sleeping mushrooms is covered with special substances, which have a shielding effect on magic, but not on Deep Blue.

"Sleeping mushrooms have been found, and the location has been marked in red." Deep Blue gave a prompt after Herag took a few steps.

In Herag's field of vision, there was a red shuttle-shaped mushroom underground a few meters ahead.

Herag took out the shovel in the space ring and dug at the designated location.

He was very careful when digging, because he knew that the mushroom was too close to the ground and he might destroy it if he wasn't careful.

A few minutes later, Herag saw the head of the sleeping mushroom.

The sleeping mushroom had no cap and was purple all over.

Herag cleaned the soil around the sleeping mushroom and dug it out easily.

The first sleeping mushroom was obtained.

Herag continued to move forward. With the help of Deep Blue, he could save a lot of observation time.

The ground was covered with too many low grasses and trees. Even for an old hand, it would take a lot of time to observe.

Five minutes later, Herag stopped and Deep Blue found another sleeping mushroom.

In the morning, Herag found sixteen sleeping mushrooms.

He saw that it was still early, so he took some dry food and ate it casually before continuing to search for sleeping mushrooms.

It was not until the light in the Moonlight Forest dimmed that Herag looked up and found that it was already evening.

He counted the harvest and dug a total of fifty-five sleeping mushrooms.

There was dew and a lot of leaves on his body, and a lot of dirt on his trouser legs.

Herag wiped the sweat from his forehead and began to walk outside. He had been active on the periphery of the Moonlight Forest and did not go deep. It only took about ten minutes to reach the entrance.

Walking in the forest is a very physically demanding thing. Herag was busy in it for a day and felt a little tired.

He was the first to come out, and the other three came out one after another after a while.

These three looked even more miserable than him, especially Macken, who was fat and sweaty, and his robe was wet.

"How many did you dig?" Macken said weakly.

"Two." Luka said.

Sonny said: "Two."

Macken took a breath and said: "I only found three, I'm exhausted. Herag, how about you?"
