I Save The World In The Text Game

Chapter 359 The only way to save the world

[You step harder and harder, but you see the 'Mask Master' gritting his teeth and saying nothing. 】

[You smile cruelly, grab the head of the 'Mask Making Expert', ignore its frightened struggle, and use your strength...]

['Mask Master' finally breaks down and tells you with a cry that it also knows a secret, a huge secret. If it tells it, you must let them go. 】

[A look of fear appears on its face, and it tells you memories...]

[A few days ago, it received a forging commission from Hallownest Center, and the commissioned person was ‘Assad’, a collateral descendant of the Wet Nurse. 】

[This collateral descendant ‘Assad’ has a pretty good relationship with it and can barely be called an old friend. 】

[It quickly dropped the research in its hands and headed to the center of Hallownest. 】

[It learned from ‘Assad’ that the wet nurse was giving birth to new offspring recently and was about to give birth. 】

[‘Assad’ requires it to make masks of the highest quality to give to its new younger brother or sister. 】

[Of course it cannot create extraordinary-level masks and armors. The masks it made for its descendants in the past were all semi-finished prototypes. The subsequent steps to advance to extraordinary levels are not under its control, and it cannot do it. 】

[Making a prototype mask that can advance to the extraordinary level requires a lot of materials and they are extremely precious. 'Assad' said not to worry about the materials, and asked him to go back and prepare some auxiliary materials first. The main mask materials will come to Hallownest in two days to get them. Pick. 】

[It returned to the mine to prepare auxiliary materials as instructed. Two days passed and it went to the center of Hallownest again to get materials from 'Assad's Palace'. 】

[But it was stopped outside the palace door and told an extremely unexpected news...]

[The maid told it that ‘Assad’ had died gloriously on the frontline battlefield. 】

[Its first reaction was that it was impossible. Assad was still in Hallownest two days ago. How could he die on the battlefield? 】

[Besides, Wet Nurse has completely withdrawn her troops from the battlefield, and all her offspring and angels have returned to Hallownest. How could ‘Assad’ go to the battlefield and die? 】

[It knows that there must be a conspiracy, but at this time it is shut out. Even if 'Assad' is in the palace, it cannot contact him. 】

[After weighing the pros and cons, it decided to seek the truth. Even if Assad is really dead, it cannot be excused by the ridiculous excuse of "sacrificing on the battlefield." 】

[It stays in the center of Hallownest, waits until the dead of night, uses a new type of armor, and sneaks into 'Assad's palace'...]

[There it saw a sight it would never forget...]

[The deepest part of the dormitory is a pitch-black plant that looks like a giant fungus. 】

[A head poked out from the branches and leaves of the strange fungus plant, smiling strangely at it. It would remember the appearance of that head until its death. 】

[It turns out that this weird thing is its old friend ‘Assad’. 】

[It was frightened and hurriedly fled the palace, away from the center of Hallownest, and returned to the mine...]

[Back in the mine, it was restless, shrouded in a huge fear. 】

[Why lie that 'Assad' died? Who can make 'Assad' look like this... It really can't think of any other answer. There is only one person who can do this, and that is 'Mercy' Generous wet nurse! 】

[This is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that now it does not remember who the forging client is, nor does it remember that it has an old friend named 'Assad' in Hallownest. No one even remembers the wet nurse at all. Among his descendants there is a collateral descendant named 'Assad'. 】

[Its disciples also know that it is heading to the center of Hallownest to accept the commission from ‘Assad’. But when asked about it later, the apprentice said he only knew about the entrustment and did not know who the entruster was. 】

[If it hadn’t been for the presence of some extra auxiliary materials in the warehouse to make the prototype of the extraordinary mask, which made him suspicious, and if it hadn’t been for its habit of writing a diary, it would have completely forgotten its old friend ‘Assad’. 】

[The 'Mask Master' trembled all over after saying this. It took out a diary and handed it to you with both hands...]

[You open the diary and read it carefully. The content in the diary is exactly what it says. 】

[You ask where the specific location of 'Assad's Palace' is in Hallownest. It tries to remember, but can only shake its head and say that it no longer remembers...]

Lin Xun frowned, vaguely feeling that things were not that simple.

The center of Hallownest has not yet been baptized by the 'White Velvet Snow Season'. How could a collateral descendant named 'Assad' fall into evil for no reason?

If the wet nurse did this deliberately and gathered all the offspring and angels in one place and injected them with extremely evil factors, how could the 'Mask Master' find out...

It should be said that even if he is discovered, an ant like the 'Mask Master' is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the wet nurse. Do you need to instruct the maid to lie and tamper with everyone's memory?

[Suddenly, the mine shook violently, and a loud rumble came from above...]

[You and ‘Kim’ look at each other and understand that it is the noise coming from the mine above. 】

[You are anxious and want to leave the stone room and return to the mine to see if 'Flanda' is in danger. 】

[The noise above your head subsided, and the ground stopped shaking. After a while, a girl stepped into the stone room, followed by your two shikigami 'Nine-tailed Fox' and 'Slippery Ghost'. 】

['Frenda' said apologetically, Oathkeeper, please don't worry, it has completed factor fusion, it just broke out of the cocoon and made a noise. Thank you and 'Kim' for always guarding it... 】

Lin Xun was overjoyed.

This friendly boss has finally completed his training in seclusion, but he doesn’t know if Flanda has been promoted to a god.

['Flanda' seems to know what you are thinking. She shakes her head regretfully and explains to you that after merging the firefly factor, it wanders on the edge of the boundary between the supernatural and the divine realm, but it is still unable to take the last step, nor can it Know something is missing. 】

[It knows that it cannot be promoted to a god if it delays any longer, so it might as well break out of its cocoon earlier to help you fight against the wet nurse...]

['Flanda' looked at the two fledglings with frightened faces in the corner of the stone room. They obviously recognized Flanda's identity. 】

['Frenda' continues to tell you that it has heard everything the 'Mask Master' just said to you. It can confirm that the Mask Master is not lying, but the content of his statement is somewhat unreasonable. 】

[The web of consciousness is the tool used by Fireflies to guide all things. After controlling most of the web of consciousness, the wet nurse can indeed control all the feathered ones belonging to her. Even tampering with the memory is easy for the wet nurse. 】

[You and it Frenda’s existence as a stripped consciousness network is not affected, so it still remembers the brother named ‘Assad’. 】

[But it is a bit troublesome to tamper with the memories of all the feathered ones. Given the wet nurse's character, she would choose a quicker method, such as directly erasing the 'Mask Master'. 】

[What's more, the wet nurse is doing her best to give birth to her offspring, which requires a lot of energy, so this matter should not be done by the wet nurse...]

['Frenda' looked a little solemn when she said this, and you can clearly see the worry in its eyes. 】

"If it's not a wet nurse, who else could it be..."

Lin Xun had an unpleasant thought in his mind.

['Frenda' hesitated for a moment, then opened her arms and embraced you...]

[In the dark, you once again see the consciousness network that encompasses all things. The white grid occupies most of it, and the black grid can only guard a corner. 】

[The upper area of ​​​​the white grid has been covered with a small shadow for some time. 】

[The shadow range of the floating black air is not large and only occupies a small area of ​​the grid, but it is expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye. The shadow-contaminated grid is being assimilated and eroded without any resistance...]

[According to this state of affairs, it is only a matter of time before the shadow takes over the entire grid. 】

['Frenda' let out a long sigh and brought you back to reality. It said heavily, maybe both the wet nurse and you underestimated the horror of external factors...]

[According to the situation on the consciousness network, the wet nurse's method of using the 'Pilgrimage Angel' to spread foreign factors is simply wrong. The spread speed of this foreign factor on the consciousness network is much greater than the radiation speed of the 'White Velvet Snow Season'. 】

[If its inference is correct, the foreign factors are originally transmitted through the spiritual level, or the soul level! 】

[Now even if the wet nurse eliminates all the visiting angels and stops the spread of the 'White Velvet Snow Season', it will not be able to stop the spread of foreign factors. 】

['Flanda' said this and looked at the two feathered ones in the corner. She hesitated for a moment and stretched out her finger to tap lightly. 】

[The two twitched a few times, the light in their eyes disappeared, and they died. 】

[Your friendly sworn character ‘Flanda’ defeated the ‘Echoed Mask Making Expert’. 】

[Your friendly sworn character ‘Flanda’ defeated the ‘Echoed Mask Master’. 】

[You have obtained ‘a holy piece of spirituality’*1]

[You have obtained the ‘Mask Armor Forging Blueprint’ (special prop)]

['Flanda' continued to tell you after the two people died, gods spread faith to enhance divine power, and gods can also be born from a large number of beliefs. 】

[External 'evil' factors erode many living beings from the web of consciousness, and the evil thoughts produced by these living beings may have been aggregated into the most basic subconscious mind. 】

[Hiding oneself when weak and seeking safety are the most basic survival consciousness. If it guessed correctly, it was not the wet nurse who tampered with the memory of the emerging person through the consciousness network, but the aggregated consciousness of evil thoughts. 】

[If not stopped, this consciousness will eventually become a new god! 】

[The only way now is to take advantage of the fact that the consciousness of evil thoughts has not yet formed, control a large amount of evil power, and defeat the wet nurse as quickly as possible. 】

[The new heir that the wet nurse is giving birth to now has the evil thoughts factors extracted from your body. Not to mention that it can be perfectly integrated, at least it can integrate a large part of the evil thoughts factors. 】

[After the wet nurse successfully gives birth to a new heir, she will definitely transfer all her consciousness to the body of the newborn heir, and use the heir's body to absorb evil thoughts, control evil thoughts, and continue to grow. 】

[Since the mother’s clone ‘Flanda’ has not yet reached the level of a god, and as the father you are... relatively weak, even if the wet nurse’s divine power catalyzes the birth, the strength of the newborn child cannot be too strong. 】

[What you and it need to do is to kill the body of the wet nurse when she takes control of the newborn child's body. 】

[That is the wet nurse's most vulnerable moment and her best opportunity. 】

[The firefly will take this opportunity to counterattack with all its strength, using the consciousness network to wipe out the wet nurse's entire will and soul in one fell swoop! 】

[After the death of the wet nurse, Yinghuo can regain control of the consciousness network and peel off all the consciousness that has been eroded by evil thoughts...]

【This is the only way to save this world! 】

['Kim' on the side suddenly coughed twice, pointed at his face and asked, what about it? What does it need to do? You all have a mission given by the Great Firefly, but it seems that it does not. 】

['Frenda' bit her lip and pondered for a moment and said, 'Kim' is also an indispensable part. Its responsibility is to be a qualified witness and witness the feat of saving the world. 】

['Kim' scratched his head, feeling that Frenda was deceiving it, but it had no evidence, because it was indeed the 'eyes' of the firefly. 】

Lin Xun couldn't help but have an idea, high EQ: witness, low EQ: mascot.

Instead of continuing to fight Kim, he looked at the loot dropped by the Mask Master.

[‘Mask Armor Forging Blueprint’ (special prop): A complete mask armor forging blueprint. According to this drawing, you can specify the forging equipment related to the 'Mask Armor' or 'Magic Zirconia Mask Armor' in the 'Artisan's Book' or the forging plot character. 】

[There is no limit to the number of times this item can be used. 】

Story characters similar to blacksmiths and merchants will basically not drop any rewards after killing them.

The ability to explode spirituality and blueprint props is probably due to the effect of 'Star Lord's Flowing Crown'.

[You look at the body lying on the ground...]

[The body of the 'Feathered Mask Master': The Feathered Master with six arms is at the top level in the manufacturing of mask armor. The collaborative forging of six arms can greatly increase the speed of creation. Phase: 77% (+55%)]

[The body of the ‘feathered mask-making expert’:…]

Lin Xun's 'Fully Adaptable Parasite' happened to be in a container-less state, so he used the skill to parasitize the container when he saw it.

[Body—The Feathered Mask Master]

[Real name: Som]

[Phaseality: 137% (22%)]

[Body quality: epic level]

[Body level: 80 (+15↑)]

[Body equipment: none]

[Shell Skill: Legendary Forging Skill (Legendary + Level Skill):... This skill can be used to forge equipment of Legend + level and below quality. 】

"Unfortunately, the mask master's forging skills are only half a level higher than the swordsmith's."

On second thought, the legendary + level weapons and equipment are already very powerful. We can first create an exclusive weapon for the Purgatory Angel.

Use the exclusive weapon in the non-transformed state. After obtaining the 'complete wet nurse's umbilical cord', use the 'Bloody King's Sword' in the transformed state.

[You come to the corner of the stone room and enter the mask master's warehouse...]

[There are boxes of finely crushed ‘magic zircon’ ore stacked in the warehouse. They are all useless ores with low purity. They need to be digested and purified by the ‘thousand-legged swallower’ before they can be aggregated into usable ‘magic zircon’. 】

[You notice that in the deepest part of the warehouse, there is a box of extremely bright ‘magic zirconia’, and there is also a delicate mask displayed next to the box. 】

[You stride forward and take it all in your bag...]

[You have obtained ‘Flawless Magic Zirconia’*6]

[You have obtained ‘Advanced Magic Zirconia’*23]

[You have obtained the ‘Master’s Forging Mask’ (legendary tool)! 】

Lin Xun became interested and quickly opened the inventory to check.

Magic zirconia can be used as a forging material and as a power source for the new mask armor.

A flawless magic zirconia can provide 50 energy points, and a high-grade magic zirconia can provide 20 energy points.

The new armor can be embedded with two crystals at one time to serve as batteries. With so many batteries, Lin Xun will not need to worry about the safety of 'Zaiou Chizuhime' for a long time.

['Master's Forged Mask' (legendary + level tool): The Mask Master has no other forging tools, and the mask that can be extended into armor is its most convenient forging tool. 】

[Equipping this tool, the mask armor will wrap around the whole body of the 'Mask Master', including its six arms. The mask armor will form various forging tools at the ends of the six limbs according to the forging needs. 】

[Wearing this tool, your forging speed will be greatly improved, up to six times the initial forging speed! 】

[Tool Skills - Recycled: Use this tool to forge. If the generated equipment skills are not satisfactory to you, you can replace the equipment skills once for free without loss. (This effect can only take effect within one hour after the equipment is created)]
