Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 487

Chapter 487: Chapter 487 - Taming the Inheritance

’Finally.’

The ’small’ World Mushroom, who still didn’t use the ridiculous name "Mooshito" for himself despite letting them call him that, felt a wave of relief as the massive door opened before them.

He had been hurried, desperate to recover the connection that was gradually deteriorating.

Despite having gained quite a few advantages lately, he was now slowly losing energy from Ren, who kept his core and information to be able to project himself in mana.

The situation was more complex than any of the humans could imagine. But the resolution had turned out much better than expected.

’I never thought they would let me get down here without too many obstacles,’ he reflected while observing how the door finished opening. ’Everything has flowed so naturally, so many things have aligned...’

The series of events that had led him here... Perhaps they weren’t such bad luck after all.

The irony... What had started as a catastrophic setback had somehow led to the most direct path to power and salvation he could have hoped for.

Sometimes the worst circumstances created the best opportunities.

’And it was supposed to be bad luck,’ he thought bitterly about the unknown perpetrators. ’Someone destroyed our first heart of light.’

The sensation of that catastrophe’s effect on his network still filled him with frustration.

Sure, there were still five other chambers scattered around the world, but that had been the one they had obtained first. He had connected quite strongly to it by absorbing the liquid energy and that of the soldiers during battle, so when they broke it, it profoundly affected the liquid core he had stored.

The fungus reacted instantly, covering the area of pain.

He had managed to create an emergency network with his roots to prevent the recovered liquid from escaping through the crack that had formed in his system. But that desperate effort had damaged the communication connection with Ren.

’If this continues, we’ll enter hibernation until the damage repairs itself,’ he told himself with growing anxiety. ’We would lose months. Maybe more...’

But he had managed to open the first door.

Incredible!

’I thought I would have to transform my boy into the strongest warrior to be able to steal it,’ he admitted mentally, remembering the plans he had been gradually considering. ’But no, none of that was necessary.’

He observed the king who had guided them here, analyzing his power with senses that operated on levels humans couldn’t understand. The human was dangerous but weirdly relaxed.

’The second door is just being revealed to them but it’s already almost half way ready to be opened by him,’ he calculated, seeing the three elemental rings Dragarion already carried.

Why they were all that important... perhaps they would realize upon entering...

Upon descending the stairs that were revealed behind the door, they encountered a sight that left even the small world fungus breathless.

An enormous chamber five hundred meters in diameter and height stretched before them, filled with crystals of all sizes. Some were small, others as massive as a baby’s head. They pulsed with energy of different densities, creating a symphony of light that would have been beautiful if it weren’t so overwhelmingly valuable.

And in the center of the chamber, buried under the enormous saturation of crystals, separated by a transparent barrier that slightly distorted the view, was the command center.

’There it is,’ the fungus thought with satisfaction, immediately identifying his objective.

In the command center, among other treasures that gleamed with tempting power, was exactly what he needed to overwrite the connection that had been damaged in a good part of his roots.

The Jade Seed.

The World Tree had a different root system from his own, but absorbing it into his own system would give his roots growth and regeneration that could best be described as "steroids". It wouldn’t just repair the damage; it would improve the system exponentially.

The prospect was intoxicating. Not only would he regain what had been lost, but he would emerge stronger than before, with capabilities that exceeded his original design parameters.

Without waiting to give explanations or ask permission, the small fungus launched himself to "swim" among the crystals.

His small and squeezable form was perfect for navigating between the crystalline formations, sliding through spaces that would have been impossible for humans. The crystals responded to his presence with subtle changes in their luminosity, as if they recognized something familiar in its energy.

There are other treasures, he noted while moving toward the center. Potions that could transform any common tamer into a double. An enormous golden crystal that pulsed with power that could feed the city.

But none of that mattered to him right now.

’Only the seed must be mine without fail,’ he reminded himself with iron determination.

His consciousness and Ren’s depended on reaching that objective, or they would have to sleep for a long time. Everything else was distractions, however tempting the enormous quantities of cultivation crystals might be.

’Soon,’ he thought, accelerating his movement through the crystals. ’Very soon everything will be well again.’
