This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic

  Chapter 77 Recognize a grandma?

  Mu You tried to click on the text of 'Herbal Gathering Backpack'.

  【The backpack is damaged and cannot be taken out. 】

  【It is detected that the character already has a space backpack, and can perform backpack space fusion. Do you want to fuse immediately? 】

   "Fortunately, it can be integrated..."

  Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, and decisively clicked OK.

  Instead of watching this thing rot, of course, I should quickly fuse it and expand the capacity of the backpack.

  【The fusion is successful, and the backpack capacity has been expanded to 100*100*200. 】

  Seeing the prompt, Mu You hurriedly carried his bag and ran home, opened the backpack and got in to have a look.

   Sure enough, the backpack space has been doubled at this time, directly on the original basis, there is an extra space of equal size beside it.

   What surprised him was that a stream appeared in the expanded space this time!

   Mu You walked to the stream and took a look.

  The stream is still flowing. From the left side of this new space, it runs through a meandering river and disappears from the other end.

   Mu You walked along the stream to the edge of the space.

As expected, the river was directly cut off at the edge. The stream flowed in out of thin air from the cut-off surface, passed through the river channel, and then flowed out from the other end and disappeared. This is obviously a part of the 100-meter-long stream intercepted from a complete river. .

   Mu You put his hands on the invisible wall at the edge of the backpack space, and could even feel the slightest breeze blowing on his palm from the outside 'through the wall'.

   Not only streams are flowing, but even the air is also flowing.

  All these phenomena show that the so-called backpack space is actually a part directly separated from a different world, and various natural phenomena are still connected with that world.

   In this way, it would not be surprising if weather phenomena such as rain, snow, wind and thunder appear in the space in the future. Even if he can integrate enough space equipment in the future, he will still have a chance to glimpse the true appearance of this mysterious world.

   Came back to his senses, Mu You looked into the backpack.

   At this time, the unicorn, which was covered with bandages, had already limped and moved to the side of the stream with difficulty. He lowered his head and carefully licked the water of the stream. After tasting the taste, he lay down by the stream and drank heavily.

  Even the witch bird on the tree flew and stopped by the stream at this time, keeping its head down and pecking at the water to drink.

   Mu You also leaned over to hold some stream water, observed it, the water quality was clear, there was no sundries, and no peculiar smell, it should be a good mountain spring water.

   Of course, you can't rest assured, Mu You still took some stream water out of the bottle, and planned to find a water quality testing agency to test the composition.

  Leaving the backpack, Mu You returned to the game.

  Just now he jumped off the cliff to search for the corpse of the herb picker, and directly used up his last two points of action.

  However, Mu You was a little curious about what task rewards the old farmer would give, so he spent a little energy on purpose, and returned to the thatched hut at the foot of the mountain.

  【You have returned to the front of the thatched cottage again. 】

  【After some back and forth, it is already dawn at this time, and you are about to go forward and knock on the door of the thatched cottage, when you suddenly remember an important thing. 】

  【Because you got the skin of a herb picker, your appearance can change into that of a herb picker. So now there are two ways in front of you: one is to continue knocking on the door with the image of a watchman, and tell the old man farming everything truthfully.

  The second is to replace it with the skin of the herb picker to knock on the door, so that you may have the opportunity to replace the herb picker and become the grandson of the old farmer. 】

  【So, how are you going to face the old farmer? 】

  Two options, [Tell the truth], [Replace the herbal picker].

   Mu You was about to knock on the door to hand in the task, but unexpectedly a new option popped up.

   And the choice this time is very unusual. The two choices seem to directly lead to major branches in the subsequent plot of the game.

  【Cannibalism is short-sighted, short-handed to grab people. You have inherited the legacy of the herb collector. From a moral point of view, you should also help him fulfill his wish to take care of the elderly. 】

   At this time, another prompt popped up in the game, but Mu You ignored it directly.

   It’s too nonsense to talk about morality with players. As a player, the first consideration is always what is more beneficial to yourself.

   Mu You frowned and thought for a moment, then decided to see what the rewards of the two options are.

  【You stepped forward and chose to knock on the door with the skin of a human being. 】

  【The old man farming soon opened the door and appeared. You told her what you saw along the way just now. When the old farmer heard the news of his grandson's death, he was distraught for a moment, and after giving you something in a hurry, he went back to the house and closed the door. Seeing her expressionless eyes, I am afraid that I will thank guests behind closed doors until I die in depression. 】

  【You have obtained a rare prop 'Harvest Horn': input magic power, and you can blow the horn to make the surrounding crops grow rapidly. 】

   "Speed ​​up plant growth?"

  Mu You was startled. It's a pity that the time was short, and he didn't have time to take it out to check it carefully. After reading all the words, he hurriedly pressed the pocket watch.

  【Time flies, you have returned to the thatched cottage. This time, you choose...]

   Mu You continued in no hurry.

  He chose 'tell the truth' just now, but the old man gave him an ox horn, blowing it can speed up the growth of crops.

   This guy can be said to be a "farmer" to eat. Of course, it is precious enough, but after all, it is only a rare-level item. I didn't say how much it can speed up. Just judging from the level, it is probably similar to his jack-o-lantern...

   "Well, let's look at the other one first..."

   Mu You shook his head, clicked on the panel, and selected 'herb picker skin' in the skin column.

   "Loading!"

   Another burning sensation of flesh and blood rolled all over his body.

  However, it is different from the last time the player was changed, this time the angle of view of the skin after the switch is obviously lower.

   After everything stopped, Mu You went to the mirror to take a look.

At this time, he has become a fair and clean boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, about 1.6 meters tall, wearing a bamboo hat and a straw coir raincoat on his body, his palms are covered with dry Thick calluses, at first glance, are the testimony of long-term mountain climbing.

   "Is this the herb picker?"

   Mu You looked around in the mirror, the new skin looks pretty good, except for being a little thinner and shorter, everything else is perfect.

  He clicked on the game and glanced at the panel.

   What surprised him was that after switching the skin of the herbal picker, there was an extra 'natural ability' in his panel.

  【Talent · Medicinal perception: You have an extraordinary sensitivity to the smell and medicinal properties of spirit grass. 】

This is similar to the ability of the werewolf's "Butcher Wolf". It belongs to the talent that comes with the skin. It will only take effect when wearing the skin of the herb picker. , and at the same time, it will also be of great help to his introduction to potion science in the future.

   Mu You nodded in satisfaction and switched back to the game.

  【You chose to put on the skin of a herbal picker and knocked on the door of the thatched cottage. 】
