Jungle Tour

The journey to the depths of the forest was not so easy, the sweltering heat made the smell inside the gas mask Roger was wearing unpleasant and gave him an urge to take it off and breathe heavily.

Crowded mushrooms blocked the normal path, through the work became as difficult as climbing a mountain, he had to climb back and forth between those huge mushroom cap, and careful not to press those containing highly toxic species. In addition, the lighting situation is worse than he thought, even in the daytime, daylight is difficult through the layers of mushrooms to the lower level, some times he had to rely on the light released by Hill to identify the path.

Hill's condition was much better than Roger's, thanks mainly to its metal-based body, as well as its quadrupedal body structure that allows for more stable rock climbing.

The good news is that Roger came to Parry before the spaceship configured to disperse the mushroom spray correctly played a role, so there is no small goblin to harass them along the way, but the strange and dangerous environment of the mushroom forest created a lot of trouble for him.

The level of danger here was much more serious than he thought, and once he was even bitten by a carnivorous mushroom. It was Hill who promptly spewed flames out of his mouth to save him.

Such a bad trip did not beat Roger, only to make him more vigilant, he has encountered a very large number of small goblin along the way, such a number means that they have been promoted among some of their kind to become the big one.

The good thing is that for the time being he has not encountered them, only that there is something that makes him feel quite contrary, but can not recall at once.

Suddenly, a strange color flowed in the corner of his eyes, but he didn't care, just thought it was his hallucination because of the sweltering heat.

But when this phenomenon appeared for the second and third time, he had to stop his own footsteps and look around vigilantly.

First he checked the airtightness of his gas mask to make sure he had not inhaled the toxic spores that caused the hallucinations. Then he calmed Hill, who was also a bit nervous, and pulled out a special bait from his backpack.

This was originally used to deal with those big mushrooms, but it seems to be a good choice for use here.

After he put down the bait, he didn't leave too far, but circled around, pretending to be lost and waiting patiently for the anesthetic in the bait to kick in.

"Zzz..."

Not long after, Roger heard a subtle purr from the silence of the dense forest, and he and Hill, who had also noticed, looked at each other with a sinister smile on their faces.

It's time to give these innocent wild aliens a little human technological shock.

This specially tuned bait is infused with ingredients that target fungal aliens, emitting an odor that they can't resist and will quickly anesthetize them after eating.

Narcotic bait is strictly regulated by the Federal Narcotics Control Act, the Federal Alien Rights Protection Act and other laws, and rarely circulates on the market, but is usually made by certified collectors before it needs to be used.

The two of them slowed down and carefully identified the location of the subtle whirring sound, then found a wall made of mushrooms from which the subtle whirring sound seemed to come from behind.

He stuck to the mushroom, and through the gap was able to vaguely see that behind this wall, there was a peculiar alien about the same size as the small mushrooms, which also seemed to be some kind of mushroom-like alien, probably a rare species.

Once he remembered that he still had thirty years to pay off the airship loan, Roger felt his heart beat faster, hastily took down a hive, broke open after releasing the aliens inside, Fissile.

Only to see an eccentric alien about the same height as Hill emerge from a flash, like a huge pure gem, even in the middle of the dim forest also reflects the blue light of the sea.

No, it wasn't a reflection, but it was glowing in its own right.

"Fissile, please help me, move it out."

The strange elf known as Fissile heard Roger's request and spun in place, and gradually an identical Roger appeared in its original position, he nodded to Roger, and then an invisible force lifted the strange alien and fetched it out from between the gaps of the mushroom.

"Thank you, Fissile."

Roger put on his gloves, caught the alien floating in mid-air, and began to examine it. This is because many aliens, especially plant aliens, carry toxins and one must be a little careful when touching them for the first time.

"Peculiar color, slender body, and this unique pseudo-foot, this is probably an unknown mushroom alien."

After some careful examination, Roger first put this alien away in an empty hive for preservation, and then decided to end this expedition for the time being.

A new kind of alien meant many things and was of great significance to him and the Federation, and had to be sent to a safe place with priority and identified by more precise and advanced equipment.

After cleaning his gloves with disinfectant spray, Roger looked aside at Fissile, who seemed to have no intention of returning to the hive yet.

"Fissile, you can accompany me back to the hotel, but can not let anyone see, understand?"

Roger image of Fissile nodded, and then gradually changed into the appearance of a human girl, with a cute style of navy blue gas mask on her head.

"Humans, danger. Roger, safe."

It reached out and tugged at Roger's sleeve, following him in the same direction as before.

Hill followed them aside, looking at Fissile's appearance, bleating a few times in protest.

"Hill, can't beat me."

The mocked and furious Hill jumped hard and used the two metal rods on its back as ram's horns and threw them at Fissile, but Fissile, who was able to float, just flew up lightly and easily dodged Hill's charge.

Immediately after she pushed forward, an invisible force came into play, pushing Hill forward even faster, and the two metal rods were instantly bumped on top of a huge mushroom in front of him.

"Ohhh!"

The pile of huge mushrooms that looked flat was hit by Hill this, immediately issued a shocking scream, and then stood up.

Looking at the huge shadow of the big goblin in front of him, Hill could not help but take two steps back, swallowed a mouthful of spit, and then turned around and ran in the direction of Roger.

After this roar, the original calm forest all of a sudden sprang up countless large goblin, flush to them.

These four legged goblins, as big as bulls, began to charge, and the smoke was full of toxic dust.

Roger did not have the slightest idea of competing with these giants, he called out to Fissile and told it to take himself and Hill and run away, then unsealed the decoys in his backpack one by one and threw them out in different directions.

Although Fissile was able to fly, these big, heavy, stupid-looking mushrooms were far more agile than Roger had imagined. Before today, he had never thought that this famous Parry's planet gargoyle could bounce and jump through the jungle, chasing them like a bouncing ball with the help of its own elasticity and that of the mushrooms around it.

Soon the bait he had prepared had been consumed, and it was all thanks to Fissile's superior flying skills that he was able to avoid being caught up by those big angry mushrooms behind him.

But running like this is not a solution either. The botanical Aliens are renowned for their excellent physical strength, and Roger doesn't think the mushrooms will be an exception.

The final outcome of such a chase is likely to be that Fissler is caught up by the mushrooms due to the burden of Roger and Hill.

Suddenly, he remembered the strange colored mushroom that he had just included in the hive, and a plan came to his mind.

"Fissile, find a place to hide, I have an idea."

Fissile nodded and led the big mushrooms around a few more times before finding an opportunity to hide behind a clump of mushrooms.

By the time the angry big mushrooms followed the traces and scent to find the place, they saw only four small colored mushrooms, one fell on the ground seemingly unconscious, and the other three were circling anxiously around the unconscious one.

Seeing their arrival, the three little mushrooms immediately gathered around, chattering and complaining that two long monsters and a four-legged monster had just fled in the other direction after knocking their companion unconscious.

Although the mushroom gargoyles are amazingly powerful, but the brain is obviously not very enough, and did not think much about the simple deception of the loopholes in front of them, but after the leading one turned the direction, they all followed and ran.

After chasing for a long time without finding any clues, the mushrooms realized that they were wrong and had already lost Roger and his tracks when they turned back.
