Chapter 214: Thunder and Fire
Happiness mushrooms are a famous product of the Talma mountains. Whenever a thunderstorm day passes, they will pop up like spring bamboo shoots and grow on many rock walls of the Talma mountains.
It is worth mentioning that the toads on the Talma mountains, which are as famous as the mushrooms in happiness, are creatures that only appear on thunderstorms.
The toad of bad luck has been huddled in the rocks for many years. Its claws are extremely sharp and can easily dig out hard stones. It can only run out to mate during thunderstorms. It is a rare scene of thunder and earth fire.
Mushrooms and toads are symbols of the Talma mountains, one is a plant and the other is a living thing, both of which are toxins.
No one can find out how the happiness mushroom grows continuously, and no toxin hunter can find out the background of the happiness mushroom, including the bad luck toad, which is only a slight understanding.
Every year, thousands of people commit suicide by eating happiness mushrooms, because if you eat happiness mushrooms, you will taste the taste of happiness at the moment before you die.
Ironically, suicides want to die happily, but because of the happiness brought by mushrooms, the hope of continuing to live. However, the toxins of happy mushrooms are unsolvable, and hopes that they want to work harder and live will only turn into deeper despair.
Therefore, the Talma mountains have an alias for "where the soul returns".
There are so many toxins in the world, and there are many poisons that have been discovered but not detoxified. Toxin hunters are the professions for this. Basically every toxin hunter is an excellent pharmacist.
Happiness mushrooms and doom toads are one of the many problems that many toxin hunters want to solve.
At the foot of the mountain, there are many simple stalls with baskets, and the baskets are filled with mushrooms the size of fists, which are the mushrooms of happiness.
Those who want to commit suicide can directly buy happiness mushrooms from the seller at the stall. They are sold in four flowers, and each person can only buy four flowers.
There is no fixed price for happy mushrooms, only "favorite price".
What the seller wants is all the possessions of the suicide person. Even if the whole possession is only one coin, he can buy happiness mushrooms. In addition, the seller will provide processing services and friendly corpse collection services.
This is a profit chain full of despair, but both buyers and sellers will be very satisfied.
You can see many happy mushrooms at the foot of this mountain that is as lively as a market, or you can see many people who are indifferent to life, but you can basically not see a living or dead toad.
A woman with long hair, dark skin, thin lips and a slim figure came here.
The seller who set up a stall looked at it and immediately screened out the woman. They had seen too many people who were seeking death. With just one glance, even if they were expressionless people, they could tell whether the other party wanted to seek death.
To put it in a mysterious way, they can see the dead aura emitted by those who seek death.
This dark-skinned woman with a hint of charm with a look is obviously not a person who wants to die.
They made a judgment with just one look, and turned their attention to others and shouted to win over new guests.
"Hmph, it's so sad."
The dark-skinned woman stood in the past of the crowd, quietly looking at a person walking around, feeling the atmosphere of despair that was so close to her, and a hint of sarcasm flashed through her sharp pupils.
She stood among the crowd of people passing by, as if standing tall as a crane, quite conspicuous.
Ge'er is her name.
She is a professional hunter, but she has three professions, namely the poison family, the coroner, and the pharmacist.
The Poison Family is her main profession, so she is a Poison Hunter, and she is one of the recently promoted members of the Twelve Earthly Branches of the Hunter Association.
In addition to those who want to commit suicide, a small number of people who come here are poison hunters, both amateur and professional. The main purpose of coming to this place that specializes in making money from dead people is to find bargains.
The Toad of Doom is the only creature known to be immune to the toxins of the Happy Mushroom. Because it is rare and only appears on thunderstorms, even if you catch it specifically, you may not be able to catch it.
However, the indigenous people who have lived at the foot of Mount Talma for many years never missed any thunderstorm opportunities. They have exclusive hunting skills and occasionally catch a doomed toad and then auction it.
For poison hunters, happy mushrooms are available, but bad luck toads depends on luck. Whenever thunderstorms pass, they will come to the foot of the mountain to try their luck.
There were also several toxin hunters around who noticed the dark-skinned woman. Among these toxin hunters, there was a middle-aged man wearing a leather jacket. If Luo were here, he would definitely recognize the middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man was one of the people Luo rescued in the Yamalo Forest in the last Hunter Test.
At that time, the middle-aged man asked Luo whether the detoxification method of rotten spider poison could be announced to the world. The middle-aged man was an amateur toxin hunter. After the last hunter test failed, he also planned to participate in this year's hunter test.
Ge'er ignored the gazes that were looking around and walked around the market. He didn't notice the bad luck toad, so he simply turned around and left.
This time she came to the Talma mountains for the sake of happiness mushrooms and bad luck toads. If these problems are solved, they will be able to increase their achievements, which is very important for her who has been newly promoted to the twelve earthly branches.
There were muffled sounds in a valley somewhere.
"It's still too slow!"
Bisjijiao shouted and kicked Luo away with a roundabout kick.
When Luo hit the rock wall, he suddenly stopped in the air to avoid secondary damage.
"Is this slow? Your requirements are too strict, right? I obviously blocked it."
Luo landed on the ground, raised his right arm and looked at it without any injuries.
In the close combat just now, Luo raised his right arm in time to block Bisji's sideways and kicked him.
If the offense and defense value is counted at 100 points, then Bi Siji's kick mobilized a considerable 70 points of damage, while Luo hurriedly defended, and when he was kicked, he mobilized a defense close to 70 points in time to gather on his arm.
As a result, he successfully blocked Bisji's round kick.
"Do you think the most suitable choice for me just now is the round kick?" Bisji glared at him.
Luo frowned slightly, thinking about the battle between him and Bisji just now.
Indeed, at that time, Bi Siji had a good offensive opportunity. Compared to the round kick that needed to turn around and accumulate energy and waste time, the damage of a backhand elbow would be lower, but the speed was faster, so the hit rate was higher.
"Did you notice it?" Bisji said lightly.
Luo nodded with a serious look and said, "If you have a elbow on your back, my 'flow' will not have time to defend."
"So, were you ready to deal with it at that time?" Bisji asked.
No…!
At that time, there was no preparation for defense measures, or in other words, there were only attacking at that time, but now when I think back, I could only defend at that time and then look for opportunities to counterattack.
When Luo thought of this, he shook his head and said, "No."
Bisji put his hands on his hips and said, "Also, you did resist the damage, but you didn't completely defend yourself. It proves that the moment you fly out is my next chance to attack."
"However, your thoughts can offset my chances and can also be considered to increase the error tolerance rate."
Luo pursed his lips, posing in a starting position, and said in a deep voice: "Come again!"
There is no extra time to recall during the battle. You need to draw the most correct conclusion in lightning time. Once you take a wrong step, the price will be hit.
