This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous
Chapter 393 All For The Family
In the quiet and dark underground channel.
At one point, two bats flew past one after the other, and the bat behind quickly caught up with the bat in front, screaming in the air and began to attack the other bat frantically, causing blood to splatter all over the scene.
The other bat suffered from pain. After struggling, it hurriedly evaded and flew upwards. It hit the top of the rock wall above. Its sharp wings cut the rock wall above. The claws cut into pieces neatly, but the dust and gravel produced also hindered its perception and actions.
The injured bat above took the opportunity to escape in a hurry, stumbling and flying deeper into the river.
After the bat below took some effort to get rid of the obstacle, it immediately took off again and chased in the direction where the other party disappeared.
Tracking all the way like this, soon, this dry underground river channel came to an end.
Later, the bat flapped its wings and landed, turning into the appearance of Mai.
Looking at the dead end ahead, Mai sensed a circle on the ground, and quickly looked in another direction. On the mountain wall here, some kind of dark green underground broad-leaved plants grew.
Mai stepped forward and lifted a certain broad leaf, revealing a narrow passage behind the leaf.
"See where you're going!" Mai Yi sneered, and got into it without hesitation.
During the pursuit just now, she had already noticed that the other party was just a viscount, and the viscount had no chance to resist when facing the count, so she didn't worry about her safety at all.
The passage is shorter than expected, and after turning around two corners, the front suddenly opens up.
Mai found himself in a vast underground cave, which had been artificially transformed into a refining base, surrounded by various herbs and instruments, and a somewhat familiar fragrance of herbs wafted in the air.
Mai Yi didn't think much about it, and rushed into the cave quickly, and soon on the other side of the cave, he saw a man in black robe standing against the wall, with one hand covering his right arm, bleeding profusely from his right arm.
No mistake, it was the wound she scratched just now!
"Give up, traitor, you have nowhere to go!" Mai said coldly, with sharp claws emerging from both hands, ready to attack.
From the surrounding environment, she could already imagine that it was this traitor who continuously produced wolfsbane from here every day, and was then used by the werewolves on the blood clan, causing a large number of casualties.
And such a person is no longer worthy of being a blood clan member. The rule of the blood clan prohibiting cannibalism does not apply to this kind of person, so she doesn't have to hold back when facing this person!
However, just when Mai was about to rush up and take down the opponent, he suddenly heard the opponent's voice.
"Mai... To be honest, I am very relieved..."
"Um?"
Mai Yi raised her head in surprise, and looked at the man in black on the opposite side with a puzzled expression. Because the voice just now was so familiar that it immediately reminded her of a character who could not have appeared here...
"It's you who came after me. It's really great... It seems that he has saved me some favors..."
Amidst the wry smile, the man in black robe on the opposite side took off the hood on his head, and the face revealed from under the hood immediately confirmed Mai Yi's worst guess.
"Uncle? This is impossible! How could you..."
Mai looked at Jonas on the opposite side in disbelief, and the burning fighting spirit was instantly extinguished, leaving only a sense of bewilderment and absurdity.
There are so many viscounts in the blood clan. She thought that the ghost could be many people, but she never doubted her uncle. Because the uncle in her impression is such a kind old man with a gentle temper and polite to everyone, how could such a person be a traitor...
However, in the depths of her heart, there was a louder and louder voice reminding her that Jonas was the ghost, because she had actually discovered the clues long ago, but she had been subconsciously turning a blind eye to it.
For example, my uncle's identity is a rare herbalist in the clan, and he is born with the conditions to commit crimes.
For example, during the past year when my uncle was injured, he often left early and returned late, saying that it was to collect medicine to subsidize the family...
Another example is the smell of medicinal herbs that she smelled when she came in just now. The reason why she felt familiar was because there was always a similar smell wafting in the house...
Thinking about the meaning of these herbs, which originally represented warmth and reassurance to her, now makes her sick...
"Why……"
After a short period of ideological struggle, Mai had gradually accepted this fact, and could not help but clenched his fists, raised his head, and stared at Jonas, his eyes filled with disbelief, grievance, confusion, confusion, sadness and many other emotions. In the end, it all turned into anger.
"Why did you betray the clan and become a werewolf's lackey?" Mai asked angrily.
At the same time, there is another thing that makes her feel confused: her elder brother arranged for her to catch the inner ghost today, that is to say, her elder brother already knew that the inner ghost was an uncle? Then why let her come?
In fact, Mu You did have doubts about Jonas before, because he was ambushed by werewolves for a while before, and at that time, there were not many people who could know where he was at any time.
At the beginning, Mu You even suspected that Mai Yi was the ghost, but later confirmed that it was not, so the scope of the ghost was further narrowed.
As for the real confirmation that Jonas is the ghost, it was this morning.
As a magic pharmacist, Mu You knew that Nei Gui was a master poison maker, and during the long-term contact with medicinal herbs, Nei Gui's body would definitely be imbued with the corresponding smell. It's a pity that the overly detailed hint of smell is not mentioned in the text of the game.
So until this morning, when Mu You personally came to the Star Spirit Realm, the moment he came into contact with Jonas, he recognized the faint herbal smell emanating from him.
Mu You had studied poisonous blood before, so he knew exactly what ingredients were in it, and the herb represented by the smell on Jonas' body coincided with these ingredients.
So far, the identity of the inner ghost has been completely determined.
"Why?"
Jonas shook his head and said, "Of course it's for the family, for you."
"Family? Us?"
"Ever since Liston disappeared thousands of years ago, I knew that if no changes were made, the Rhine family was doomed to continue to decline until the day of its extinction."
Jonas coughed and said weakly: "I have become the only adult male in the family, and I feel a heavy responsibility. I must protect my family, and I must shoulder the responsibility of revitalizing the family. To do this, in fact All you need is a bottle of ancestor's blood!"
"However, this bottle of blood is an unattainable dream for us. The blood of our ancestors, which is a drop in a hundred years, is impossible to fall into our hands even after thousands of years due to the size and contribution of our family. inside!"
Jonas smiled wryly and shook his head: "I don't have the talent like Liston, I can't get blood by my own ability, so I can only find ways to create other ways to get blood..."
"So you cooperated with the werewolves to force the tribe to distribute a bottle of blood drops for detoxification by creating wolf poison targeting the tribe?" Mai said coldly, already understanding everything.
"Sorry, that was the only way I could think of..." Jonas said bitterly.
"Uncle, do you know that I was almost killed by a werewolf because of your poison!" Mai said through gritted teeth.
Jonas froze for a moment, looked at Mai and shook his head and said, "Actually, the werewolves would not have killed you at that time. This was one of the agreements I made with them. Otherwise, you thought you had been hunting every day for this year , You have been chased and killed so many times, did you survive by your own ability?"
"What about the other clansmen?" Mai said sadly, "For the sake of our clan's rise, it doesn't matter if the blood clan sacrifices in vain?"
"Yes, as long as you can protect you so that you don't have to live this precarious life again, it doesn't matter if some other vampires die." Jonas said this sentence very calmly.
Mai looked at Jonas in surprise, and couldn't believe that he could say such words so plainly.
"But the elder brother has already returned. With his own means, he easily obtained three drops of the ancestor's blood! Our family has been revived and become stronger than before. Why do you still want to..." Mai said.
"Is he the one who came back?" Jonas's voice, which had always been gentle, suddenly raised, startling Mai.
"Mai, did you really not find out? Or, in fact, you have already found out, but you simply don't want to believe that he is not your brother, but just a fool in your brother's skin, a fake! My race must have a different heart, if you stand in my position, would you dare to entrust your family to an unknown foreigner?" Jonas's eyes were bloodshot, as if he had been hurt by the words, his expression was a little bit ferocious.
Mai looked blankly at Jonas who seemed to be insane, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head and said seriously: "I only know that what I see, what I hear, and everything I feel are all in harmony with a thousand dollars. My brother from years ago is exactly the same. I don't care what he looks like in other places, as long as he appears in front of me in this form, he is my brother!"
"you……"
Jonas looked at Mai Yi with a serious face in surprise, and sighed helplessly: "You have been deeply affected by the blood binding..."
"So is that why you refused to take Heart Blood?" Mai sneered. When taking her brother's heart blood before, she thought about whether to let her uncle use it first, but Jonas refused, and she was not allowed to feed her own heart blood for the time being on the grounds that she had just been promoted and needed to stabilize her strength. For aunt and other children.
Jonas sighed and admitted frankly: "Yes, I don't want to be a slave to a foreigner, and I don't want my family members to be indirectly slaves to others."
"So I'm no longer your family member in your heart?" Mai asked with a wry smile.
"How come?" Jonas shook his head hastily, and argued, "I just know that he treats you as his younger sister, and he won't hurt you..."
"Then why do you think he will hurt your wife and children?" Mai asked.
"..." Jonas was silent.
"Ask yourself, after my brother came back, has he ever done something to be sorry for you and our family? He brought us blood, made everyone in the family eat and drink enough, and also allowed our family to regain the ethnic group respect, and now we have to lead the clan to help the blood clan survive better in the future! Can’t you see these contributions? He has done so many things for our family, and what is there for a poor and dilapidated small family like ours? Something worthy of his concern? If he really has other plans, he can find other big families to cooperate, besides, even the Grand Duke has already recognized him and chose to cooperate with him, why are you still unwilling to trust him?" May asked loudly.
Jonas was speechless.
After a long silence, he sighed: "Perhaps, you are right..."
"It's just that I can't turn back... From the day I chose to cooperate with werewolves, I have fallen into the abyss and handed over the handle to werewolves. If I stop cooperating with them, werewolves will expose I, at that time, the Rhine family will bear the name of a traitor, be judged by the race, and be nailed to the shame of the blood race forever, so the only way is... cough cough!"
As Jonas said, he suddenly coughed violently, black blood mixed with internal organs, and vomited all over the floor, and his whole body instantly became sluggish, and he sat down on the ground with difficulty leaning against the wall, panting heavily.
"uncle!"
Startled, Mai hurried over to check his injuries.
"Uncle, you..."
However, when Mai lifted Jonas's black robe and took a look, he found that the exposed skin of his whole body had turned black ink, and the arm injured by her just now was continuously bleeding out highly poisonous black blood.
This is a sign of toxin infiltration. The toxin has obviously penetrated deep into the internal organs and cannot be reversed.
Seeing Mai Yi's unbelievable look, Jonas smiled wryly and said, "How do you think such a strong toxin is produced? I tested it every day with my own body. The toxin in my body is stronger than others. A vampire is a thousand times heavier, and I have already lost the possibility of surviving, so in fact, even if you don't come today, I won't survive tomorrow."
"Uncle..." Mai Yi couldn't help the tears dripping down: "Hold on, I'll go find my brother to save you..." As she said that, she was about to turn around and leave.
"Don't...cough cough..."
Jonas hastily pulled her back, and said with a wry smile: "Actually, as early as this morning when he found me, I knew that he had seen through me, and even the Grand Duke already knew that the ghost was me. And he probably knew too , I can guess that I have been exposed. But although we all know it well, we still cooperate to finish the play. This is a silent tacit understanding: I help him deliver false information to the werewolf, let the werewolf step into the trap, And he will protect the Rhine family from being held accountable by the Grand Duke..."
Jonas squeezed out a smile and looked at Mai: "So, don't blame him, I have made too many mistakes, I must die, otherwise I will not be able to explain to those clansmen who died because of me, and if my death can change For the safety of you and your family, I will die without regret..."
As Jonas said, he actually stretched out his right claw, and then, under Mai's shocked gaze, inserted it into his left chest, and took out his heart completely from it.
The black-red heart was still beating vigorously in his hand, but Jonas was a little weaker. His face was pale, and he stretched out his other hand tremblingly, and took out a green injection from his coat pocket. .
"This is the source of blood, my heart..."
Jonas put his heart on the ground, and then handed the injection to Mai.
"This is another poison that I secretly developed during this time. It's a 'surprise' for the werewolves. Those werewolves only knew to use me to deal with the vampires, but they never thought that we were the ancestors who manipulated blood. There will be a price to be paid for injecting the blood of the vampire into my body... Injecting this injection into my heart can immediately inactivate the vital blood in all werewolves, and at the same time transform it into a toxin that restrains werewolves... Although it cannot be directly Kill those werewolves, but it must be enough for them to drink a pot... Let's take it as my last redemption..."
Jonas smiled miserably, and stuffed the injection into Mai Yi's hand: "The heart can't stay active for too long after being separated from the body, so let's do it quickly..."
"I, I can't do it..." Mai Yi shook her head repeatedly with tears in her eyes.
"This matter must be done by you...Only if you 'destroy relatives righteously' with your own hands, the Duke has a reason to let the Rhine family go. You will become a hero who saves the people, and the hero's family will not be embarrassed..." Joanna Si smiled and said: "When I die, remember to take my heart and go to the Duke to exchange for the blood of the ancestors. In addition, just grind my heart into powder and make an antidote to treat those wolves in their bodies. The poisonous clansman..."
While the two were talking, the beating frequency of the heart on the ground decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it was about to lose its activity.
"Mai, don't let my hard work go to waste..." Jonas urged, getting weaker and weaker, the rest of his life was connected to his heart, and when the heart stopped, he died completely.
Mai wiped away her tears, held the injection with both hands, and tremblingly moved it to the top of the heart.
After pausing for a few seconds, under Jonas' relieved gaze, he stabbed down...
...
At the same time, somewhere outside the Undercity, a group of werewolves in a stealth state are speeding up their march and rushing in one direction collectively.
"No, wait..." At a certain moment, the voice of the werewolf boy suddenly sounded in the quiet line.
The leader of the tyrant stopped and looked back at the boy: "What?"
As soon as he stopped, the pack of wolves behind him immediately stopped their journey and looked at the young man one after another.
The boy didn't answer, but looked back suspiciously, closed his eyes for a few seconds, and exclaimed, "There are a large number of vampires following us!"
"Oh? How many people are there?"
"Yes, more than nine hundred, even thousands..."
"What?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard the words. Even the tyrant couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.
More than nine hundred, that's almost all of the Blood Race troops...
They acted so carefully, but they were still found by vampires?
"who is it?"
The tyrant turned into a wolf-headed human body, looked back at the wolves behind him angrily, subconsciously punched out his right fist, and a huge boulder beside him was instantly shattered into powder.
The tyrant didn't care about it at all, but swept all the werewolves with sharp eyes.
He can be sure that he has done enough concealment measures along the way, and even made a detour in a deceptive direction when he set off.
Even so, they were still being followed by vampires, so there was only one possibility: someone present was deliberately exposing their whereabouts!
Facing the tyrant's glance, the other werewolves were all silent, and subconsciously looked at the other companions around them.
An atmosphere of mutual suspicion began to permeate among the wolves.
