This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous

After dealing with the goblin's affairs, Mu You took the list it wrote down, left enough food and water for it, and then left.

But before leaving, the goblin hurriedly grabbed Mu You, pointed to the half hill cut out of the space, and asked him if he could cut trees and pick stones.

Mu You looked at the mountain bag in the distance, and probably understood what the goblin meant. He nodded and said that the space in this backpack would be given to him as a base in the future. It can be modified at will, but the premise is that you don't want to escape.

The goblin naturally said yes to this, it just wanted to dig stones to build a house, but it didn't dare to think so much.

After dealing with the goblin matter, Mu You returned to the lock cylinder space, at this time Xiaoya's light of evolution time was over.

Mu You looked around, and there were no new small animal mutations today, but there was a change that surprised him even more: the war eagle has evolved!

The previous level has been stuck at the bottleneck of level ten, and the Shadow Warhawk, which has always been as immobile as a mountain, finally broke through the bottleneck smoothly after persevering in the light of evolution for nearly a month, jumping from level ten to level eleven, not only the attack power The health value has increased slightly, and a new ability has been added.

[Chain Lightning: The thunderbolt released by the shadow warhawk will jump between nearby enemies, losing 20% ​​of the power of the initial lightning each time, and will not strike the same target repeatedly. The maximum number of jumps is four times. 】

Thunder strike has changed from a single damage to a group, jumping four times, that is, hitting a maximum of five targets each time, although the damage will gradually decrease, but the total sum is equivalent to triple the damage of a lightning strike , the improvement is not small.

At the same time, the war eagle breaks through the bottleneck, which means that there is no obstacle before the fifteenth level.

Mu You glanced at the time, it was only seven o'clock in the afternoon, and it was still early before midnight, you can wait until the early morning to summon the war eagle to see if you can go straight to level 15.

After Xiaoya and Lin Xue finished their work, they took their leave and went home. Mu You watched them leave, went out to finish dinner, then went home and closed the shop, went back to the room to make a few cards, and killed some time.

The 'Snowball Curse' and 'Restore As Ever' just obtained at the meeting two days ago, also copied a spare card.

After finishing the work, it was already eleven thirty in the middle of the night.

At this time, the once-a-week Cooldown of the Horn of the Elf has finished, Mu You took out his phone, and the game is back online, let's look at the new mission first.

【You sounded the fairy horn】

[Dark Elf Queen Fred Exile appeared in front of you and issued a mission to you. 】

[Clean up the dark temple: The dark temple located on the outskirts of the dark city was originally a place for the dark elves to worship the gods, but recently a group of goblins seem to have opened up the passage at the other end of the temple, and the dirty goblins have occupied temples and transform them into mines.

Because the goblin set up many solar alchemy devices to drive away the dark elves, her people couldn't get close there. So Fred hoped that you could enter the crypt of the temple, clean up the goblins, and destroy the alchemy devices of the goblins.

The Queen of the Dark Elf was once entrusted by an ancestor of the Fool with a fragment of the ruins map, and entrusted her to give it to the offspring of the Fool with qualified abilities. If you can complete this task, she decided to give this fragment to you. 】

[Reward: City of Eternal Night Map Fragment (Ninth). 】

"The fragments of the ruins?"

Looking at the four paragraphs of text that popped up in one second in the game, Mu You was a little surprised. After scanning the content in a hurry, he went back in time.

The horn was blown for the first time today, and the Queen of Darkness came out again. The task was to clean up the temple and fight against the goblins. The difficulty was unknown. Originally, Mu You was not very interested, because the distance was too far, and he had to go to the ghost of the Undercity However, the final reward forced him to face up to this task.

A Map Fragment: Number Nine of the City of Eternal Night...

Mu You rubbed his chin. What really surprised him was that the Queen of Darkness actually had a shard in her hand, and according to the text, it was not picked up by herself, but entrusted to her by the ancestor of the Fool... …

From this point of view, there is indeed some secret relationship between the elves and the Fool's ancestors.

The elven horn in his hand is also a proof. As a hidden relic, the horn of the elves is actually a communication device to connect the fool and the elves.

The Fool's Ancestor handed over a fragment to the Dark Queen, probably because he hoped that the owner of the horn would inherit this fragment first. Of course, if the task of the owner of the horn is not completed well enough, and the elf queen considers her ability unqualified, she will find another target...

But in this way, there is no need to rush to do this task.

This task is hung here, if he doesn't accept it, the task will not be canceled in a short time, so there is no need to worry about this fragment being found by others.

Thinking of this, Mu You reactivated the horn, ready to look at other tasks first.

After refreshing seven or eight times in a row, the missions of the forest priest and the sun elf were successfully completed.

As expected, the content of the missions of the two is still the same as before, one is to explore the dream land, and the other is to capture the abyss flying dragon alive, the content and rewards have not changed at all.

However, after coming down several times, he never saw the mission of the goblin fairy.

At first, Mu You thought it was because the number of refreshes was too small, so it didn't come out randomly, so he continued backtracking.

However, the follow-up went back more than forty times, and the mission was always switched between the other three kinds of elves, and the fairies never showed up from the beginning to the end.

"what's the situation?"

Mu You felt a little uneasy. Didn't she urgently need pollen last week, did she increase the price of the reward?

This week, Muyou Pollen was prepared for her, but she didn't come out to release the mission...

Could it be... hang up?

Mu You couldn't help thinking of this possibility.

But when I think about it, I don't think it's right. It's just a lack of pollen. At most, I will lose the power of luck. After all, it is a representative of the goblin family.

Mu You did not give up and refreshed dozens of times, but the text of the goblin fairy was still missing. It seems that she really won't show up today.

Helpless, Mu You had no choice but to turn around and take up the task of the Sun Elf first.

The fairies and fairy pigeons are gone, and the remaining two tasks are not something he can complete in a short time, but he already has a plan for the task of the sun elves.

In the meeting a few days ago, I made an agreement with the Lord of the Abyss, asking her to bring an Abyss Flying Dragon over next week. According to her tone at the time, this matter should not be too difficult.

[You have accepted the mission 'Catch the Flying Dragon Alive': go to the Great Abyss of Lohmadi within a week, capture a Flying Abyss Dragon alive and bring it back. Task reward: a phoenix egg. 】

After receiving the task, Mu You put away the horn, seeing that it was almost twelve o'clock, so he sent the character to Anning Village, and was going to find the old cat manager to take care of its business.

【After a period of dizziness, you returned to the cabin of the watchman. 】

[You leave the wooden house and choose to go to the gate of the village...]

[Before you came to the village entrance, you saw the owl shop not far from the village gate. 】

[You walk towards the owl shop, ready to buy something. However, when you get closer, you realize that there are a large number of fools densely gathered around the store, and the three shop windows of the old cat shopkeeper are already empty. 】

[Obviously, you are late. The goods were snapped up by the swarming fools earlier today, and these people gathered around at this moment are waiting for the store to be refreshed in the early morning. 】

"emmm..."

Mu You was speechless. He forgot that the public beta is now open, and the Arcane Tower has expired. Players are no longer restricted in their movements and can enter the city or village at will.

In other words, now not only monsters want to grab, but even shopping has to be queued up.

There was no other way, so Mu You had no choice but to let the character stand beside the shop and wait.

With a pocket watch in his hand, he is still very confident in things like grabbing things, but the process will be more dirty...

After hanging up at the door of the store for a while, the time soon came to zero.

[The hour hand in the store has passed zero, and you see an owl falling from the sky on time, carrying a delicate leather case in its claws, and falling into the owl store. 】

[The owner of the old cat shop took the suitcase immediately and opened it on the spot. 】

[You hurriedly looked inside and saw ten items in the box, namely: Protoss Dictionary, Boots of Speed, Poisonous Dagger, Invisibility Cloak...]

[The manager of the old cat selected six products from it to take out...]

When he entered the door last time, Mu You remembered that there were only five items in the suitcase, and the store manager Lao Mao chose three of them.

This time the owl brought twice as many products as the one he saw last time, and the old cat store manager also selected twice as many products at the same time.

But what Mu You couldn't understand was that among the ten items, there wasn't even a spell scroll?

[The manager of the old cat placed six items in the cabinet and started today's sales. 】

[A large number of fools scrambled outside the window, and bought out the items in the cabinet almost instantly. 】

【You take a step too late, when you look again, there are only six 'sold out' shelves left in front of you...】

Mu You: "..."

Do they all have to be so rich?

Among today's goods, there is even a rare 'life talisman' worth 1,000 years of life, which automatically generates a shield every hour. Something of this level was snatched away in an instant!

Counting the lifespan of that golden apple, Mu You now holds a huge sum of money with a lifespan of 3021 years, but even if he wants to buy this thing, he has to weigh it carefully.

However, these players with less than tenth-level logos on their heads actually made such generous moves...

Mu You can only sigh, there are still many rich people!

Although it is not easy to trade a large amount of lifespan on Earth now, as long as they are willing to bid for it, there are always people who are willing to sell a few years or more than ten years of lifespan in exchange for overnight wealth.

Nine days have passed since the public beta test, and even the scattered collection lifespans of those capitalists are now enough to accumulate a huge number.

These rich people don't lack lifespan now, what they lack are levels, magic and props. Now that the Arcane Tower has finally disappeared and the foreign store is open to fools, it is not difficult to understand why they will be so arrogant.

No wonder even the owl store has doubled its goods today. It seems that these foreign merchants are still clear-headed. They had anticipated a wave of shopping frenzy today and temporarily increased their shipments.

After the panic buying was over, a group of players left to go about their own business after shopping, and soon only Mu You's game character was left on the scene.

Mu You didn't leave in a hurry because he still wanted to chat with the old cat manager.

[You went to a place where no one was around, and switched the skin of the mysterious man. 】

[You return to the shop again. 】

[The owner of the old cat shop has finished selling and is already packing up his things to close the door. When he saw you coming, he hurriedly stopped, came to greet you, told you that today's goods are sold out, and asked what you need. 】

[You inquired about the sales situation of the past two days with the owner of the old cat shop. 】

[The owner of the old cat shop told you that since the early hours of yesterday, the orders of their owl business headquarters have surged, especially the pages of spell scrolls and magic experience books. Order sold out...]

No wonder there is no spell scroll, even the scrolls in the owl headquarters have been emptied!

Are all rich people this crazy?

But looking back and thinking about it, Mu You understood.

These capital forces are not spending money indiscriminately. On the contrary, snapping up spell scrolls is one of the most profitable ways at present. Because equipment cannot be mass-produced, one piece is worth the value of one piece, but magic can be copied in batches.

As long as you have spells and enough experience pages, you can raise a certain magic to LV5. Then, if you can get some magic teaching equipment, you can set up a school on the earth and teach magic to other people in large quantities without consumption. People, and the benefits that can be generated in this process are unimaginable!

[You asked the old cat store manager, when will there be new spell scrolls for sale? 】

[The owner of the old cat shop tells you that the production of spell scrolls is not easy. It requires a senior engraver with LV5 magic, and consumes a lot of experience pages and time to make it. Even the most skilled engraver will take a week to make a low High-level spell scrolls, middle-level and high-level scrolls take longer. 】

["At this time next week, there should be a batch of spell scrolls shipped, and you can come and wait and see in advance, but please be prepared for the price increase of the goods. According to the current market conditions, next spell scrolls and experience The price of the book pages may increase by more than 50%." The manager of the old cat revealed some internal information of the chamber of commerce to you based on your mysterious identity. 】

"Next week..."

Mu You shook his head helplessly, there was no other way, the scrolls were sold out, once a day became once a week, but at least there was still a chance to prostitute for nothing. And it's a great honor for the store manager to tell him this kind of inside information.

As for the price increase or something, Mu You didn't care, anyway, he bought it for zero yuan.

[The owner of the old cat shop saw that you seemed to be paying special attention to spell scrolls, so he suggested to you: "If you want to learn magic, the most affordable way is not to buy scrolls, but to go to the magic academy in the imperial capital or several big cities. The cost of learning magic is only one-third of the price of the scroll, or even lower.”]

The old cat shop manager finally gave him a good suggestion, but unfortunately this suggestion is not available to Mu You, no matter how low-cost magic is, it is impossible to be more fragrant than his free prostitution.

But the other party also had good intentions, Mu You controlled the character to say goodbye politely, left the village entrance, returned to the watchman's hut, and then teleported directly to the imperial capital through the hut's teleportation array.

[Amidst the dizziness of the teleportation, you appeared in the underground river of the imperial capital. 】

[You switched the fortune teller skin and took a goblin submarine...]

[You drove the submarine into the jet tunnel, and under the action of the huge jet, rushed into the reservoir on the east side of the imperial capital...]

Muyou has personally experienced this journey twice, so there is no sense of confusion at the moment. After one operation, the character successfully drove the submarine through the river in the imperial capital, and swam all the way to the commercial street he passed by before.

[You moored at the 'Siye Street' located in the center of the imperial capital, and left the water to land. 】

[Siye Street is one of the oldest commercial streets in the entire empire. It is named because the whole street is shaped like a four-leaf clover, and the corners are scattered in four directions. At the same time, it borders the four major magic schools in the imperial capital. . 】

[A number of well-known brand stores in the star spirit world have opened branches on Four Leaf Street. The goods here are about 20%-30% higher than that of ordinary shops. 】

To Mu You's relief, the curfew in the imperial capital seemed to have stopped, and this street was still open normally in the middle of the night.

[You switched the skin of the mysterious man. 】

[You step into Four Leaf Street, and you see the four closest shops to you, you choose to go to...]

Five options: [Madame Lisa's Robe Store], [Magic Beauty Shop], [McDance's Wand Shop], [Prop Recycling Shop], and [Go Forward].

Mu You chose to 'keep moving forward', planning to find out all the nearby shops first.

It turned out that he was overthinking. This street was much bigger than he had imagined, with more than 200 shops. He had just finished exploring one of the four leaves, and his physical strength was exhausted.

However, even among the more than 30 shops that have been identified, he has already found many shop names that interest him very much.

Mu You controlled the character to take two steps back, and first entered a 'Cuckoo Owl Shop' on the left.

[You have entered the Gugu Owl Store, which is one of the only two owl specialty stores on Yotsuba Street. Here, you can buy all common varieties of owls on the market. 】

[Because of the honorable status represented by your mysterious skin, the clerk warmly entertained you. 】

[Accompanied by the clerk, you walked into the depths of the store, and saw rows of birdcages displayed on the shelves, each containing an owl imprisoned. 】

[You see gray owls, long-eared owls, barn owls, silver owls, brown owls, barn owls...]

A large number of owl names popped up, and Mu You clicked on the text one by one to check the price and description.

Most of the cheap owls are priced at 15-20 years, and some owls with good appearance or varieties are sold for 20-40 years.

The most expensive of them all was the silver owl.

The price of the silver owl in this store is between 34 and 50 years, which is more than twice that of ordinary owls!

Seeing this, Mu You will be counted.

In the astral world, although a creature can consume one year of lifespan to be resurrected after being killed, not all the lifespan consumed can be obtained by the killer.

To plunder the lifespan of other creatures, two conditions need to be met:

One is that the soul strength of the killed creature must be high enough. The strength of the soul is generally linked to the size of the body. Those life forms that are too small, such as various non-monster insects, ordinary grass plants, trees, etc., even if they are killed, they cannot plunder their lifespan.

The second is that the creatures to be killed must have sufficient predatory capabilities and aggressiveness. Moderate creatures with no attack power or insufficient attack power will not gain life span even if they are killed. For example, these owls, the donkeys he brought back earlier, and even the chocobos were all neutral creatures. As domesticated familiars, they will not participate in battles, and killing them will not have their lifespan counted.

The magic owl itself has a very short lifespan, only about five to ten years. In addition, the owl's food is small creatures such as insects, so it cannot gain lifespan through daily hunting.

Therefore, the wizards bought owls, and while feeding them, they also had to provide them with life spans every year, which was not a small cost.

But even so, wizards basically have an owl in their hands, because owls are not only pets in the astral world, but also messengers and delivery personnel.

It is also because of this that silver owls are just needed for these wizards, but not very attractive to humans. After all, they look too similar to owls on Earth, and their ability to send messages is not used on Earth.

The silver owl eggs obtained by Mu You were not intended to be sold on Earth, but were prepared to come to other worlds to open up sales.

After knowing the price, Mu You ignored the clerk's persuasion, left the owl shop, and turned around to enter the 'Black Cat Magic Pet Shop', which is his real goal today.
