Fantasy Lord: I Have a Moving Castle-Chapter 112 - 51: Crystal Mushroom, Butter Mushroom, Green Head Mushroom, and Frost Deer
Chapter 112: Chapter 51: Crystal Mushroom, Butter Mushroom, Green Head Mushroom, and Frost Deer
The carriage was slowly being repaired but the repair speed was much slower than before when the unknown giant bird had shaved off the roof, it seemed that repairing itself also consumed energy, and the previous repair of the shaved roof had nearly drained the "Castle’s" repair power—at least the power for that stage of repair.
This also made Char give up on the thought that the "Castle" was an impregnable fortress, if it were to suffer a strong attack, the "Castle" would still be destroyed, it couldn’t be repaired infinitely.
Char looked at the Mushroom House that had already integrated with the carriage, having fixed several spells, and equipped with complete devices, and felt very happy in his heart.
The Mushroom House was divided into two rooms in total, one of which was much more delicate, this was the key area of the Mushroom House, inside were planted more than a dozen kinds of precious mushrooms.
These mushrooms were Auson’s treasured collections, extremely delicate, even with careful nurturing they would only grow a little, with a very long growth cycle, once there was any problem, they would die before your eyes.
As a Little Red Riding Hood, Auson was naturally a master mushroom grower, yet even so, the quantity of each type of mushroom was not large.
A few more and there were about a dozen, less and there might only be one, and there was more than one kind of mushroom that had only a single survivor, making Char not dare to try their effects, for if he did, there would be none left—these mushrooms hadn’t even grown enough to bear spores, making seed preservation impossible.
However, these precious mushrooms were indeed impressive, each with their own uses.
Some could directly serve as attribute ingredients for Magic Pets, saving the effort of trying one’s luck with Praying Power.
Some could increase strength, enhance Constitution.
Some could cure diseases.
Others could be used to make poison.
Some could even be used to increase Magic Power.
Previously, Char had eaten a Crystal Mushroom that could increase Magic Power in conjunction with meditation.
This type of mushroom was as transparent as crystal, wet and slick, secreting crystal-like mucus on the surface, dripping down from the high mushroom canopy like rain drops from eaves, and even emitting a pale blue glow at night.
It sure looked like a poisonous mushroom, if it were in his previous life, Char definitely would not dare to try it.
Such a beautiful mushroom looked very poisonous at a glance.
Now, with the double assurances of Auson and Freyja, he dared to try it.
After eating it, he meditated using the Four Seasons Wind Meditation Method, and indeed, the increase in Magic Power was significant.
A Spellcaster’s Level is judged by the amount and quality of Magic Power, that is to say, the Magic Power you gain every day through meditation directly determines the speed of your strength growth.
Furthermore, the Magic Power gained through meditation is affected by factors such as talent, the Level of the Meditation Method, and external forces.
Char’s talent was originally very good, and he was practicing a high-level Meditation Method like "Four Seasons Wind", his training speed was already very fast, quickly reaching the 3rd Level of Natural Prophet’s Magic Power, and he began to stride towards the 4th Level Natural Prophet.
With the addition of the Crystal Mushroom, this speed had become even faster, reaching an astonishing rate.
If he could have a supply of mushrooms like the Crystal Mushroom every day, Char’s strength improvement speed would noticeably rise a notch.
Luckily, the completion of the Mushroom House made the increased production of these special mushrooms possible.
Now, this small room was like a mini ecosystem, simulating various ecological environments—the spells fixed in the Mushroom House were these ecosystem simulation spells.
Previously, he chose to build a chicken coop and a vegetable garden first, and delayed building the Mushroom House for this reason; he had to accumulate the materials for permanent spells, since the blueprint couldn’t create them out of thin air.
As for ordinary mushrooms, there was no need for such trouble, with Auson present, they were easy to cultivate.
Previously, these pampered special mushrooms survived solely thanks to Auson’s talent abilities.
Now, with the simulated original environment, Auson’s workload would be greatly reduced, not to mention the energy spent, and the yield would also increase greatly.
Although it wouldn’t be possible for Char to eat one every day, at least he could have one after a while.
In the room outside the exquisite small room, there was an even larger room for normal mushrooms, where ordinary mushrooms were cultivated.
After some time of selection, Char had kept two types of mushrooms.
One was called Green Head Mushroom, round, about the size of a steamed bun, growing quickly, and able to be harvested every few days, plentiful enough to be filling, and the taste was also quite good.
Through experimentation, Char found that among the mushrooms that grew the fastest, Green Head Mushrooms had the best taste, so he heavily promoted them.
The other was called Butter Mushroom, resembling King Oyster Mushrooms in shape, but the body of the mushroom was chicken fat yellow.
Compared to Green Head Mushrooms, the taste of Butter Mushrooms was much more delicious, after pan-frying, they even had a fragrant taste of chicken, requiring no additional condiments or side dishes, just frying alone was delectable.
The growth speed of Butter Mushrooms was nowhere near that of Green Head Mushrooms, but it was still much faster compared to special mushrooms like Crystal Mushrooms.
These were what Char used to improve meals, preparing a meal with them every once in a while.
’I hope these mushrooms grow quickly.’
Looking at the Mushroom House after it was established, the Green Head Mushrooms and Butter Mushrooms, which had looked a bit wilted from being scattered on the ground, perked up again.
Next, Char had the Wind Winged Horses stop, since a whole night had passed and the Undead Tide hadn’t caught up, it probably would not catch up anymore, so stopping was safe.
Char gave each of the three Wind Winged Horses a big bundle of fodder to reward them, with some Magic Plants added into the fodder.
