Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 937 - 613: Plants vs. Adventurers, But It’s a Hybrid Edition 2

Someone just raised a question, but immediately someone else shouted, "Look ahead, it's the Golden Chalice Flower!"

Their breathing became rapid, and when they fixed their eyes deeper into the jungle, indeed, the silhouette of a Golden Chalice Flower flickered in and out!

This magical plant can produce silver coins and gold coins. It's the rarest of all plants. If an adventurer could take it out, they would never worry about food and drink again.

"Catch it!"

People rushed forward in a frenzy, forgetting all about the Green Tree Spirit sap, as they all charged towards the Golden Chalice Flower. The flower seemed to have grown legs and dashed off, so the adventurers chased it down another fork in the path.

"Hey, don't be so impulsive!" The strong man sensed something was amiss. "It might be a trap!"

"That's a design only found in the Sain Dungeon. There's no need to worry here!" the teammates confidently replied.

"I still feel uneasy." He gritted his teeth and chased after them.

In the thick jungle, a chase was going on in full swing. The adventurers greedily eyed the Golden Chalice Flower, fantasizing about becoming wealthy.

Just then, they saw swaying silhouettes in the shadows of the jungle.

"Are those zombies? Weak monsters. I'll handle them by myself, you guys keep chasing."

An adventurer broke away from the group to tackle the zombies. They were weak and easy to deal with, so he could handle a group of them alone!

It wasn't until he got closer that he realized there were plants growing on these zombies' heads.

"It's fine, they're just a bit stronger. I can still win!"

He even chuckled. He loved those plants that could move by parasitizing on zombies' heads because they were so satisfying to use.

He was the most loyal Big Enoki Mushroom fan!

The adventurer grabbed his weapon and slashed at the nearest zombie. It was only then that he truly saw what was on the zombie's head.

A sunflower? No, why does it have two heads and looks connected like a Cherry Bomb...

This isn't a sunflower; it's a [Sunshine Bomb], a fusion of a sunflower and a Cherry Bomb!

"BOOM!"

"What was that sound?"

The strong man turned his head, seeming that the sound came from somewhere near where his teammate separated. Is the guy alright?

"The Golden Chalice Flower ran your way, catch it!"

The teammate's shout snapped him back to his senses, and he saw the Golden Chalice Flower leap over his head and dive back into the bushes, prompting him to give chase.

The other adventurers were about to follow when they suddenly noticed numerous swaying shadows around them.

"Tsk, why are there so many zombies today?"

They assumed battle stances, suddenly seeing the zombies seemingly pushing something. The shape looked like a Pea Shooter, but much larger.

After they threw a Flash Technique to reveal it, they finally saw its full form.

It indeed was a Pea Shooter, but only the head, with its body connected to wheels.

"What the hell!" Upon seeing this, the adventurer's hair stood on end.

This wasn't a Pea Shooter; it was a [Pea Cannon], a fusion of a Pea Shooter and a Corn Cannon!

The Pea Cannon shot out peas larger than a human, exploding with a "bang" in front of everyone!

The violent shockwave sent everyone flying backward. Holding back the pain, they looked up to see more Plant Zombies appearing.

"What... are these things?" They questioned in utter confusion.

Before them appeared never-before-seen plants.

[Destruction Mushroom Shooter], [Charm Mushroom Shooter], [Big Mouth Machine Gun Shooter], [High Ice Fruit]...

These bizarre forms closed in step by step, exerting a tremendous sense of oppression. They then realized that somehow they had unknowingly reached the deepest part of the Cangyin Dungeon. By rights, this should have been the boundary; how did it expand further?

Among this strange assortment of plants, they even spotted another Golden Chalice Flower. Its leaves seemed to bear a magnet-like object.

But driven by fear, they forgot their greed and only thought of escaping. Fortunately, the zombies were not fast, and they could absolutely run out—

The [Magnetic Golden Chrysanthemum] suddenly activated its magnetism, pulling away weapons, shields, and all sorts of miscellaneous things from each adventurer.

The adventurers halted all at once, turning their heads as if they'd seen a ghost.

The things being sucked away were their most valuable possessions. Without them...

"Damn it, why does the Golden Chalice Flower have the ability of a Magnetic Mushroom!"

To reclaim their weapons, they would need to reach the Magnetic Golden Chrysanthemum, and to do that, they would have to pass through that crowd of bizarre plants...

"I'm going for it!"

Someone shouted and charged forward, while others, gritting their teeth, turned and ran, with explosions and screams sounding constantly behind them. Those fleeing dared not look back, convincing themselves that escaping was the right thing to do.

But then, a strong suction force came from behind, and those who hadn't run far saw they were being pulled back.

Oh right, their armor would also be pulled by the magnetism.

"No!"

Seeing himself about to fall into the midst of the strange plants, he cried in despair.

"If you could absorb armor, why didn't you do it from the start!"

Meanwhile, the strong man chasing the Golden Chalice Flower turned to find his teammates missing.

"Where is everyone? I have a bad feeling about this..."

Such "walked a bit and found all teammates missing" scenarios were common in the Sain Dungeon, and his PTSD was about to flare up.

Driven by fear, he continued forward, oblivious to having ventured deep into the jungle. It was then that he saw the silhouette of the Golden Chalice Flower not far away.

"It's dangerous here. If I just catch it and stay put, I'll wait for the dungeon to close!"

He made up his mind and charged toward the stationary Golden Chalice Flower.

But just as he was about to succeed, the ground beneath him gave way, and he fell with a scream, landing heavily. The ground here was hollow!

He looked up at the hole's entrance, but before he could think of climbing out, it had been sealed by an [Earth Spike Potato Mine].

"Huh?"

The strong man's eyes went blank for a moment—did this mean he couldn't get out?

The survival instinct drove him to explore the surroundings. When he turned his head, his eyes grew even more dazed.

In front of him lay a one-way path, or rather, a tunnel.

But this tunnel was densely packed with sharp, terrifying spikes.

From where he stood, it seemed endless, filled with an aura of despair.

"Maybe if I use the Rock Technique, I might make it through?"

As he said this, he saw saw blades suddenly emerging from the spikes not far away, buzzing as they spun—Gong Qiying typically called these power saws.

Saws of varying sizes were dispersed in a regular pattern, moving up and down through the spiky jungle, fear-inducing. Those spinning blades could surely cut through rock with ease.

And this was just the beginning; who knew what other sadistic traps lay further ahead?

It even smelled like Sain.

"...."

Gazing at this insane map, the strong man fell into silence.

It was then that he saw a pile of High Ice Fruit shards in the corner, papers scattered beside them.

[To obtain the treasure, you must first endure the pain.]

The High Ice Fruit shards resembled long sticks. When struck against the spikes, they could bounce off them. Perhaps by hitting the spikes with these shards, he could navigate through the spike tunnel.

But if he made even the slightest mistake, he might fall into the spikes and end up like Spongebob.

Gripping the High Ice Fruit shard, he gazed at the sharp tunnel.

His eyes filled with determination as he slowly began to speak:

"Endure my ass; how is anyone supposed to get through this?"

On this day, the adventurers of Spring Sun City felt that something was off.

Within the dungeon that day, cries filled the air.
