After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 391 - : 315, Lia accidentally eats poisonous mushrooms, Lin Da "loots the body

Chapter 391: 315, Lia accidentally eats poisonous mushrooms, Lin Da “loots the body

“While you’re there, ask them why they haven’t replied. I’m the Dean, after all, and they’re showing me a serious lack of respect,”

Although Bailuo was small in stature, she carried the pride of a top-ranked adventurer.

That Lin Da, a mere Level 20-something adventurer, should at least give a proper reply even if he doesn’t want to join Azure Sky University.

Instead of acting as if he hadn’t seen it, ignoring her invitation.

When a Light Rank Adventurer gets angry, someone is bound to suffer!

That very night, Bailuo and Taige spread their Battle Qi Twin Wings and flew to White Dove City, located at the southern end of Cangqing Province.

…

…

World Tree’s Great Mystery, the tenth floor, Dragon Forest.

The time was probably dusk.

The forest was perpetually dark, seldom bright, and without a Magic Guide Watch, it was difficult to determine the exact time.

Almost ten days had passed since the Great Mystery Continent closed.

The good news was that the ‘Acid Rain’, which could continuously corrode an adventurer’s Life Barrier, had stopped the day before.

Lia’s heart cried out in gratitude to the Goddess as she hurried out to search for food.

The bad news, however, was that Lia was so hungry she was seeing white.

That detestable Hu Er had found her dwelling and brought some fruits,

but Lia, ever vigilant, feared the fruits contained harmful toxins and refused them all.

She planned to gather some food during the day and move out at night, distancing herself from Hu Er.

At the moment, Lia’s stomach growled loudly, her throat parched as if on fire, and she had even drunk all her self-produced beverages dry, unable to produce more.

Her face was as dirty as a beggar from the slums, her legs weak and powerless.

Starvation had slowed Lia’s inner Battle Qi to a standstill; she felt that even a normal Giant Magic Saw Mushroom might beat her now, let alone a Level 30 feral Magical Creature.

Walking through the dense, spiky underbrush, Lia staggered, using her beloved Phoenix Feather Sword as a crutch.

She cautiously peeked her head out to ensure there were no feral Magical Creatures around then sprinted to a moss-covered rock.

Like a starving lamb, she gnawed away wildly.

Lia endured the strange taste in her mouth and swallowed everything.

The moss, named ‘tasty moss’, could replenish a certain amount of strength for an adventurer, but tasted worse than dung.

In contrast, there was ‘tree cotton’ which tasted like roasted pork skewers, but in truth, it couldn’t replenish strength and was essentially a bird’s droppings.

Food tasting of dung and tasty dung.

Lia chose the former.

She ate with tears in her eyes, silently wiping away the little pearls with her sleeve.

—She longed to go home, to soak in the warm Great Water pool, to scrub the dirt off her neck that was thick enough to roll into balls.

Lia also missed Aiko and the others, reminiscing about the days of bickering together. It was in such a lonely and dangerous environment that she realized adventure wasn’t something one could do relying solely on oneself.

If she could make it back to White Dove City alive, she would definitely give Aiko and her friends a raise and treat them better.

“Alas, I can’t produce today’s drink!”

After searching the forest for a long time, Lia couldn’t find any water source.

After the Mystic Realm closed, all the ordinary resources that were easy to find disappeared. This was the World Tree Goddess’s punishment for adventurers who didn’t follow the rules.

Lia didn’t dare complain in her heart; cursing Holy Light was one thing, but cursing the World Tree Goddess would bring trouble. Who knows, stepping wrong could mean landing in a nest of Cold Poison Feathered Snakes.

Lia took out her juice cup, held it up for a while, but not a drop came out.

Having spent ten days in the Great Mystery Continent, her once vibrant red hair had become like withered weeds, losing its luster, with split ends signaling her poor physical condition.

Suddenly, her stomach cramped as if someone with half-year-untrimmed nails was rummaging through it.

Lia’s face went pale, and her heart dropped: was it because of the mushrooms she ate this morning?

Although they looked toxic with their bright colors, she remembered the book said they were edible!

The truth, however, was that they indeed could be eaten, but only after being boiled in water for over 30 minutes.

Hungry to the point of desperation this morning, Lia had simply dipped the mushrooms in like hotpot ingredients, eagerly stuffing them into her mouth.

Now paying the price for her haste, she convulsed in pain, her vision doubled, her head spun, and she collapsed to the ground.

…

One hour, two hours passed.

Lia was lucky; during this time, no Magical Creatures passed by.

Tap tap, tap tap.

Footsteps approached.

The person discovered Lia lying on the ground, paused for a while, holding his chin, a puzzled expression on his face.

This dirty redhead, why does she look somehow familiar?

…

…

Lia only vaguely remembered something: as she lay on the ground, poisoned by the mushrooms, it seemed a tall adventurer came by.

They stuffed something thick and large into her mouth.

Then a warm rush flowed from within.

It was water.

Precious water!

Feeling elation from her throat, the simple-minded Lia didn’t associate it with anything else and immediately thought it was the mouth of a water bottle.

She didn’t know how much time had passed, but when Lia regained consciousness and opened her eyes, her first sensation was a burning pain in her stomach, her body felt light, and her head was still dizzy.

The symptoms of poisoned mushrooms hadn’t completely dissipated.

She lay on a mat made of ‘tree cotton’, atop a stone bed, under an uneven “ceiling,” with dark blue rocky walls around her.

Lia sat up, staring blankly around.

What she saw was a room carved out of stone that resembled an adventurer’s resting quarters, the entrance obscured by vines, through the gaps of which she could see the forest in the distance and the pale red sky.
