Chapter 523: Chapter 513: Secrets Within the Thirteenth Dungeon

Teleportation Array.

Lin Jun had never really considered setting up a Teleportation Array on his own territory before.

The reasons are multifaceted.

The convenient space rift in the Underground City, the ability to generate Puki locally, and the fact that the territory wasn’t particularly large back then, etc…

But now, it seems it is indeed practical to consider setting up a few teleportation arrays, since Lin Jun is not lacking in Magic Power.

Although the materials are expensive, Lin Jun now has a large family business, so he can afford them.

So Lin Jun waved his tentacle…

“Huang Pi, you’re not going to connect the other end of the teleportation array to some strange place, are you?”

The sudden creepy question made the pages of the Yellow-covered Book stiffen.

[Boss… I was hoping you would help me shape a soul, how could I do anything funny!]

“Hahaha, just kidding!” The Puki’s tentacle tapped the cover encouragingly, “This time you protected Norris, provided information about Combat Puppets and Demon Crystal equipment, quite an achievement, I naturally trust you.”

Turning around, Lin Jun then notified Edin through the Fungal Network to come over, letting him supervise the entire construction of the teleportation array in the name of assistance.

Although Edin cannot independently construct such a complex Array, he is more than capable of checking some key nodes.

Originally, Edin was indulged in using the large S-Class Demon Crystal obtained last time to create a large illusion instrument.

The experience where one’s lifelong learning can be exhibited energetically really fascinated him, seeing the prototype of the instrument almost finished, he encountered a problem in its trial use.

Can’t just suddenly start it up in Mushroom City, right?

It would cause chaos, not to mention that the trump card of a large illusion is most effective when unexpected.

Just as the boss issued a new task, Edin took the opportunity to apply to the boss, requesting a secluded and convenient site for the experiment.

Lin Jun agreed without even thinking, the Northern Territory is full of uninhabited areas.

Thus, Edin came over under the guise of searching for Inanna, bringing along his instrument prototype.

After Edin descended, Lin Jun filled the connection to the Deep Area with a large number of Mushroom Trees, then completely blocked the path with poisonous fog and corrosion aura, preventing any search parties from barging into his place.

…

The subordinates are busy with their own tasks, Lin Jun didn’t slack off and began his daily mission—exploring the vast sea-like rune nodes within the Crystal Stele of the Underground City.

Today is a day worth commemorating, after a year, Lin Jun is finally about to explore all the almost countless stars in this Crystal Stele!

This means that he, the administrator of the Underground City, is about to upgrade from a temporary employee to permanent staff!

As Lin Jun triggered the last star, a Puki that was providing lighting for the Adventurer team suddenly disappeared into thin air.

“An enemy attack?!”

Suddenly falling into darkness, the team felt as if facing a great enemy, the Adventurers instantly formed a defensive formation back to back, and the Mage used the Lighting Technique to illuminate the surroundings again, only to find out after much vigilance that it was merely the lighting Puki had mysteriously disappeared…

In the absolute darkness, there suddenly appeared a clump of light.

That Lighting Puki, carrying out the preset command to “follow adventurers,” appeared in a completely unfamiliar space.

Staying motionless from losing its target until Lin Jun’s will descended, it began to move lively again.

Lin Jun examined everything before him suspiciously.

Familiar dark void… Familiar floating blocks…

Is this the solidified Abyssal Space inside the Divine Wood Dungeon?

No, it’s not the same place; here doesn’t have that giant Divine Wood connecting heaven and earth.

So… Is this a self-contained abyssal domain within the Thirteenth Dungeon?

Does every dungeon have a territory like this?

For now, without paying attention to the information blocks scattered all over the sky, something reflective in the distance caught Lin Jun’s attention.

Treasures… Stacked like mountains of treasures!

Weapons, potions, scrolls, equipment… And a large amount of gold, silver, and jewels!

All placed within a giant Array with a diameter exceeding a hundred meters, composed of seven nested geometric patterns, so complex that Lin Jun couldn’t understand at all.

As the lighting Puki attempted to approach, the Magic Array suddenly began to emit a faint glow.

Accompanied by a surge of Magic Power, Lin Jun sensed a short sword disappear from this pile of treasures.

Thinking of something, the chef Puki who was preparing mushroom soup in the hidden room flipped the treasure chest it used to stand on tiptoe, and sure enough, pulled out that short sword!

So, is this the source of treasure chest refresh in the dungeon?!

Gazing at the pile of treasures, Lin Jun roughly estimated the refresh rate, deducing it could sustain for a few hundred years!

But since Lin Jun had seen it, then…

The lighting Puki rubbed its tentacle and rushed over.

Puh—

The Puki bumped solidly against an invisible barrier, its mushroom cap being flattened.

[Access Denied]

Lin Jun knows how to deal with this.

The lighting Puki didn’t give up but stuck itself firmly against the air wall.

The result wasn’t disappointing to Lin Jun.

[Hero, access restriction lifted]

With the obstacle gone, the lighting Puki dove headfirst into the pile of treasures, its tentacles and short legs moving back and forth.

Its short legs kicked away a crown studded with gemstones, its tentacles wrapped around a Magic Staff flowing with starlight, meanwhile opening a Fireball Technique scroll to launch a firework into the sky…

These things now all belong to Lin!

Huh?

What’s this?

While its tentacles swept through the mountain-like pile of treasures, they encountered something strange.

A grayish-white human skull rolled out, its hollow eye sockets directly facing the lighting Puki.

Completely unafraid, the Fungal Mat decomposes remains like this every day, to Lin Jun it’s no different than seeing a chicken bone.

Lin Jun was curious why there were corpses amidst the pile of treasures? Could it be a treasure?

Searching further, he quickly found a few more bones.

Putting them together, without any Magic Power fluctuations, they appear to be ordinary corpses, not treasures…

Unable to understand, Lin Jun could only set them aside, but didn’t discard them randomly, in case they are important items. After all, he’s not short of space to keep them.

There are too many treasures, but glancing through them without a panel, it can be assured there are no Divine Artifacts among them, which is reasonable.

Later, move these pieces of equipment out, let Edin and the others identify them slowly.

Lin Jun then turned his attention back to those information blocks behind.

What content might be inside?

Also records regarding the fog and another Continent like Divine Wood?

The lighting Puki stretched out a tentacle, casually touching one of the information blocks.

[Experiment Name: Sunstone]

[Final Experiment Record]

[Following the blood curse, Yesheng Wood Core, and void realm, the Sunstone project is also declared a failure]

[We still cannot create a complete soul]

[Division, distortion, alienation—this is the limit of Sunstone’s capabilities]

[I have no choice but to abandon this path and seek another method]

[Ether compression technology is but a palliative, the improvement of the situation is just an appearance, the time truly left for us is not much]

[The team next door chose the opposite direction, first distorting the soul, then letting the body mutate accordingly, finally replicating the soul by splitting the body]

[No triumphant news has been received so far, evidently not progressing smoothly either]

[But I’m still planning to check it out, hoping to draw some inspiration from it]

[Universe, bless your children! Must everything truly return to nothingness?]

[Ikezion]

The Puki slowly retracted its tentacle, feeling it might have seen something incredible.

Moreover, the last signature seems so familiar, it’s…

The God of Light?!
