This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic

  Chapter 76 new skin! new task!

  【You realize that this may be the footprint left by the mission target, and the herb picker may have fallen off the cliff. You with the phantom wand can land safely at the bottom of the cliff, but you don't know if there is something deadly hidden at the bottom of the cliff. If you want to go down, you have to take some risks. Would you like to jump down to check? 】

"Check!"

  There is nothing to hesitate about. Anyway, he has teleportation and a time pocket watch. Danger does not exist for him. The worst thing is to go back to the file.

  【You held a staff in hand and resolutely jumped off the cliff. 】

  【After a burst of rapid descent, you release the apparition and land safely, only to find that you landed in a quagmire! This is a thick swamp with an astonishingly large area, and the edge cannot be seen at a glance. Any creature that falls into it will only sink faster the more it struggles, until it is completely swallowed by the swamp. 】

  【Of course you have the teleportation ability, you don’t have to worry. You quickly searched for traces of the herb pickers in the mud with a lamp. 】

  【Unfortunately, this swamp is extremely thick, and the light of the jack-o-lantern can't penetrate the mud, allowing you to see the scene below. You searched for a long time, but couldn't find any clues. 】

  【As time goes by, you sink deeper and deeper. To ensure safety, you'd better move out immediately...】

   "I actually fell into the mud..."

  Mu You hesitated for a moment, and didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, he used his pocket watch first, went back to five seconds ago, and changed direction to continue searching.

   I tried this more than a dozen times in a row, and I explored all the places I could find around, but I still didn't have any clue.

"No wonder this man didn't come back to life. The swamp is too big. Even if he came back to life, he would still be drowned in the quagmire until he was completely dead." Mu You could already imagine that a herb picker without teleportation ability, What kind of despair is falling into this quagmire.

   "Backtrack!"

  After going back in time again, Mu You already understood that it would be useless to search for it in an ordinary way.

  So he didn't do any more useless work, but decisively clicked on an item in the panel—lucky dust!

   This is the pumpkin fuel left by the fairies, which can increase the power of luck.

  Now he knows that the body of the herb picker is in this quagmire, but he can't find it. It is undoubtedly because the light is not strong enough to penetrate the mud. At this time, this kind of combustion accelerant is perfect.

  【You opened the bottle, grabbed a handful of dust and sprinkled it into the pumpkin lantern. The dust burned violently in the wick, and the light of the pumpkin lantern suddenly became extremely bright! 】

  【The strong light penetrated the barrier of the mud, and you finally discovered that at the bottom of the mud in the distance, there was a rag of clothing stuck on a broken tree trunk, extending down into the depths of the mud. 】

  【You swam over in a hurry, reached into the mud, and pulled the piece of clothing vigorously, a white bone wrapped in rags was dragged out of the mud by you. 】

  【You didn't have time to take a closer look, so you hurriedly carried the bones and teleported continuously, and returned to the top of the cliff. 】

【Looking at the bones under your feet, it is obvious that the herb picker is dead, and even the flesh and blood have been eaten away by the fish and monsters under the mud. The poor white-haired old man is still waiting for him at home day and night. This is a sad thing. s story. 】

  【You searched the bones of the herb-gatherer and found a 'herb-gatherer's sickle', a set of 'herb-gatherer's skin', a volume of 'healing ointment formula', and a 'herb-gatherer backpack (broken)'. 】

   "Good guy, so many things can be found from the bones..."

   Mu You was also powerless to complain about this corpse search mechanism, so he hurriedly checked the results.

  【Herb Gathering Scythe: A tool specially used to gather herbs. When using it to gather magic herbs, it will automatically absorb the residual energy of the grass roots and condense an additional herb essence. 】

   "A tool for collecting herbs, but what is 'herb essence'?"

  Mu You clicked on the text of 'Medicine Picking Scythe'.

  A small sickle appeared in his hand, with a cold light shining on the blade, extremely sharp.

  But this thing is only one foot long, so it is definitely not suitable for fighting. No wonder it is said to be used for collecting herbs.

   Put away the sickle, Mu You looked at the next one: the skin of the herb picker.

   This is a reward that makes him look forward to it just by looking at the name!

  【The skin of the herb picker: Danshayan is facing the sun, and the man who picks pine and saplings! After loading, the appearance and identity of the game character will be replaced by 'herbal picker', which can be realized in reality, and the skins already owned can be switched at any time, and the attributes and levels are inherited. 】

[Herbal Gatherer: A herb picker who is naturally sensitive to the smell of herbs, he has practiced the ability to climb mountains to gather herbs since he was a child. At the same time, he has also taught himself some methods of refining potions. He claims to be a trainee potion apprentice . Fixed task: brew any potion or ointment every day, and you can gain one year of life. This task can be completed once a day. 】

   New skins!

   And it comes with new tasks!

  Mu You was quite pleasantly surprised. In this way, his daily fixed life income becomes guaranteed for two years! Of course, the premise is that he must first master at least one method of refining potions.

   There is no need to think about the spirit-calling potion, not to mention whether he can learn it, just preparing the materials is enough to hollow out several of them.

   Fortunately, a new potion formula was found on the body of the herb picker.

[Healing ointment formula: A volume of ointment formula that the herbal picker accidentally got when he was playing in the back mountain when he was young. Use one part of 'herb essence', one part of 'any spirit grass', and one part of common herb powder of the same attribute, that is A healing ointment can be formulated with a specific heat and technique. After being applied, it will continue to heal wounds within one minute and restore up to 200 points of life. 】

"nice!"

   Mu You's eyes lit up.

  Trauma treatment ointment, two hundred lives at a time, the effect is very practical, the most important thing is: the materials are not difficult to find!

  One herb essence, one random spirit herb.

  He has already seen the 'herb essence', as long as he cuts the spirit grass with the sickle, he will automatically get a copy. So as long as you pick a spiritual herb from this mountain, you can solve these two main medicines at the same time.

   As for the remaining common herbal powder, this is even easier, just use the herbal powder from the earth instead.

It can be said that the formula of this potion is completely visible and tangible to him. Not to mention the low cost, the effect is still practical. If you make one copy every day, even if you can't use it yourself, you can still sell it. There is nothing better than this. The potion formula suitable for him to complete the task!

  The first three rewards can be said to complement each other. After reading it, Mu You is already full of confidence in this new profession.

   When he came back to his senses, he looked at the last thing: the medicinal backpack.

  【Herb-gathering backpack (broken): The backpack used by the herbal-gatherers to store herbs and tools has been released with a space spell, and a foreign space of 100 meters in length, width and height is sealed inside. Due to being corroded by acid in the swamp, the shell of the backpack was damaged and cannot be used temporarily. 】

   "Can't use what the hell?"

  Mu You was stunned. Looking at the description, this backpack is indeed similar to the Dageng backpack, but there is an extra affix of 'broken' at the back, which seems to be damaged after soaking in the swamp for a long time.
