Chapter 41

Now that I realized that I wouldn’t feel pain at the coming destruction, I wasn’t as worried as I was when I found out that there was a fire coming my way.

i wouldn’t thank any god in this world for anything at all but I am grateful my consciousness wasn’t placed in a mushroom that felt pain like the foreign mushroom I was attached to. That fucker was still writhing in pain.

The fire reached the periphery of my sensory network that was now serving as a delivery system for my project fuck fire plan.

I waited a few moments expecting it to still sweep over my area despite all my precautions. But despite all my misgivings its was sorta working I think.

some of my mycelium were being slowly damaged but not like they were back at the foreign mushroom. There they just crumbled into ash, here it was being slowly being made less efficient. It was still pumping water although at a less efficient capacity than the rest of my mycelium.

I can’t help but think the fire was still spreading though. The only reason i wasn’t being affected by the fire was because of the water I was distributing, but I wasn’t distributing water on the trees and plants around me. They’ll for sure get burned to a crisp…

Oh holy shit, Buttons!!!

i was using the sensory network I grew there to send water, but the same logic applied here as there. Buttons was going to burned alive.

… unless. Unless I work on perfecting the water dispersing mushroom!

Right now I wasn’t bothering hitting that sweet spot of filling the spores with just enough water they wouldn’t just plop to the ground, but I can focus on troubleshooting that. Especially now that I have sufficient motivation.

Theres no mushroom I was growing there either, I only had the sensory network set up there. I started growing a ring of mushrooms around the poor hapless plant.

Don’t worry buttons I’m on my way!
