Honestly, there's not much point in going after him imo. It's better to stay and help defend the camp, especially since there's no way of knowing whether he left behind and/or set up a trap that'll affect the camp.

If it follows the novel...
This becomes a much bigger problem than that, those mushrooms are actually a form of parasitic demon that fatass get's to be the host of, this eventually leads to the royal capital being taken over by fatass and the people being turned into puppets (think cordyceps).
Rust can treat it but still, fatass causes a ton of problems.

Exactly, the guy has no place to return (he didn’t bring Rust back), can’t win in a straight fight, and the twins can uncover ambush. Also he’s just a part of the rot, offing him of in the middle of nowhere will be like a lizard cutting its tail.
The best way to win is to clear off all the rot in the association all at once.

"Always finish what you start"

This saying really fits the situation, because who knows what the guy could do if the MC let it go like that, and he could also be the reason for the sudden stampede, considering the timing.

Besides, the MC could finish the mushroom guy prior to the stampede, but nope, he's clearly just toying with him, and now he's facing the consequences of his stupidity, which is a typical trait of manga MCs nowadays...

Wow, if he can do that, that means he chose the wrong career. Could have been a one man army general. Also probably gets the authority and money doing nothing during peace.

Perhaps so. However, I still think the mc should stay to help defend the camp, and afterwards he can go after the fool. Because, I also don't think this stampede is a coincidence, however there's a chance the fool could've infected the stampede also (no idea if so, just throwing a guess out) to have it spread to others. If so, then even if the camp can repel the stampede on their own, they're left defenseless against the infection, since the mc seems to be the only one who can deal with it.

I completely agreed. That's why I said in the previous chapter that the fight was unnecessary and that they should've focused on restraining the guy immediately, as they knew he was up to no good.

I remember reading a point where they show Rizalheim's brain being overwritten. At least, he tried appealing to the people of the capital that he's human while running away, but he wasn't at that point. So the townspeople attacked his parasite-like form that he couldn't get out of. Then the demon host grants him tons of skills in an AI-program-like manner, and that allows him to live and flee. They make a point to say that Rizalheim is incompetent while doing this overwriting.

That mushroom guy is clearly deranged, where he's not hesitating to kill anyone on his sight, and he also able to do large radius attacks using poison gases and whatnots, which makes him a very serious threat.

Letting someone like that scot free is just pure stupidity, and I can't even fathom if anyone could've done that, since he brings nothing but trouble.

I completely agreed. That's why I said in the previous chapter that the fight was unnecessary and that they should've focused on restraining the guy immediately, as they knew he was up to no good.

He could've finished the guy on the 2nd attack using the combustion technique, but no, he aims the mushroom instead, because he's more interested in collecting samples for his future researches, while testing his attacks on live subjects, instead of defeating the enemy.

This is the reason why scientists were always the main culprit in most, if not all of any unnecessary battles/conflicts in many medias, because they're a bunch of selfish bastards that only thinks about their research, instead of others safety or well being...

That's just the lazy way of making Mushroom soup. Put it in a blender and hope for the best

This is all so stupid, ofcourse this is being done so Antagonist can once again get away to go screw things up. I guessed that before I saw the spoilers here. It's so predictable and as said above, MC could have wiped them both out in self defence instead of being like "I'm just gonna hoover the mushrooms" Like no MC kill the guy thats trying to kill you..... Also you know the guy thats clearly killed before as he has no qualms killing MC and talking about covering it up.
