This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 160

  Chapter 160 Deep Sea Fear (two in one, 6600 words)

  Under the sea, Mu You hangs far behind the boat.

   This person was quite alert. While rowing the boat, he looked back from time to time to check if he was being followed.

  It's a pity that Mu You is more vigilant. Sometimes with a pocket watch, he can predict the timing of the young man's turning back at any time, so he can hide in advance and eliminate all traces on the water surface.

   Followed all the way down, but was never found.

   After tailing all the way for nearly two hours, the boatman seemed to have finally arrived at the destination, stopped when he was close to a small island in the sea, packed up the boat, and rushed to the island in a hurry.

  This crescent-shaped island spans only a few hundred meters, and a mangrove forest grows on it.

  After the boatman landed on the island, he immediately ran to the woods in the center of the island.

  Mu You could see it clearly underwater. Under a mangrove tree there, there was indeed a gap in the door, which suddenly appeared in the air.

   Mu You did not approach, but released scout beetles in the water.

  The beetle paddled through the water at an extremely fast speed, quickly moved to the shore of the small island, and hid under an aquatic plant near the beach.

   Mu You also put on an invisibility cloak and hid under the water, peeking at the opposite scene from a distance.

  The boatman ran to the door and knocked carefully.

   After a while, the door was pulled open, and a broad, muscular man appeared at the door.

   Obviously, this person is the one who opened the door!

This man Mu You didn't know him, but the moment he opened the door, Mu You saw the scene behind him, which was a bright bedroom, and behind the man, there was another person who seemed to be a subordinate, coming from the door. After a flash.

  This subordinate's clothes Mu You recognized, the familiar white uniform and badges were exactly the clothes he had seen the Illuminati before.

   So this door belongs to the Illuminati?

   Mu You frowned. Who is this door opener? Gemini or Taurus?

  Because the distance was too far, the Omniscient Crystal could not directly read this person's information.

  However, if this sect really belongs to the Illuminati, the owner can only be one of the two founders, Taurus and Gemini, and with this body type, Mu You is more inclined to be a Taurus.

   Just at this time, the beetle also transmitted the voice from the door over there.

   "How's the harvest?" asked the muscular man.

   "It's okay, but... something happened..." the boatman said with a worried look.

"Accident?"

   "The last trip was missed just now, and the boat... was also stolen..."

  The man frowned suddenly, and said seriously: "What's going on?"

  The boatman hastily described what happened just now, but his words were obviously evasive, and he only said that the man could breathe underwater, and he was stolen from the boat because of this.

  The man obviously knows what kind of virtue his subordinate is, and most of his words are biased. After thinking about it for a while, he can restore what happened.

  But after thinking about it, he immediately realized something, hurried out the door, looked around vigilantly, but found nothing suspicious.

   "When you came back, were you followed?" The man frowned and looked at the boatman.

"No!"

  The young man shook his head immediately, and said firmly: "President, you also know that I have always been very careful about this."

  The man looked into his eyes carefully, and nodded after a while: "Who is the one who stole your boat?"

   "It's a thin-faced fisherman, characterized by no eyebrows, no beard, and no half hair, so it's easy to identify..." The boatman said immediately.

   "Go back and draw this person's appearance, and let the intelligence department pay attention later." The man patted the young man on the shoulder and let him in.

   Then he himself stepped into the door.

  However, just as he was about to enter the door, the man suddenly turned around and sprinkled a handful of dispersing powder backwards.

  The spread of the dispersing powder was one to two hundred meters away, covering the entire island and the nearby sea area.

  However, after the powder was spilled, the surrounding area was still empty, and no invisible substance appeared.

  The man entered the door and closed the door again.

   "This guy is cautious enough, but fortunately he hid far enough..."

   Mu You stayed at the bottom of the water far away, didn't move, and didn't let the beetle move. Now he still needs to confirm the closing time of this door.

   After waiting for a while, Mu You saw a few people wearing various skins coming to the door. Just like the boatman just now, after knocking on the door, he was taken in by the man.

   This man was indeed careful enough. Every time someone came back, he would deliberately go out and take a look around, and suddenly sprinkle a handful of powder around, but he still failed to catch anything.

   After waiting like this for an hour, Mu You found that the man began to look at his watch frequently. It seemed that it was almost closing time.

   Another three or four minutes passed, and suddenly another small boat sailed across the sea in the distance. This time, the boat was carrying a man in black robe.

   "This outfit..."

  Mu You stared blankly again, this black robe, not a gleam of light attire, could it be the legendary Ten Commandments Society?

  Why did these two families get together?

  After the black-robed man in the distance docked, he put away the boat and appeared by the door in a teleport.

   The two were obviously familiar, and the man immediately went out to greet them.

   "All the preparations are done, we will act in four days..." the man in black whispered in a hoarse voice.

   "Don't say here..."

  The man immediately made a silent gesture, glanced vigilantly around, pointed to the door, and signaled the other party to go in first.

  The man in black also subconsciously scanned around for a week, nodded, and entered the door first.

  The man followed into the door and stood at the door watching the time. After tens of seconds, the door closed automatically.

  This time it was completely closed, not even a crack in the door was left, and the entire door disappeared into the air over there, as if everything just now was an illusion.

   Action in four days?

  The last conversation between the two aroused Mu You's curiosity.

   What action?

   Today is Saturday, and four days later it will be next Wednesday. What do they want to do next Wednesday?

  If there is only the Illuminati, that's fine, it's just a second-rate organization, and the influence is not big. But it will be different if you bring the Ten Commandments. If this group of people makes a move, it will definitely be no small matter!

   It's a pity that relying on this sentence alone, I can't guess anything.

   Shaking his head, Mu You had no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being.

   I looked at my watch, it was ten thirty-five in the morning.

   After silently remembering this time in his heart, Mu You called the beetle back, and then quietly left the vicinity.

  He did not go to check, nor did he place any teleportation array nearby.

  Based on the caution shown by the Taurus, these redundant actions are likely to become a handle, especially the teleportation array.

  In the entire Mystic Arts Association, currently only he, Scorpio, and Cancer master the secret art of dark teleportation. Once the teleportation array put down is discovered by the other party, it is easy to lock on to yourself.

   Mu You didn't take out the boat until he was far enough away from the island, and rushed back to the Devil's Sea by boat.

   It was much faster when I rushed back. The speed of this small boat is indeed not bad, especially under the downwind, it rides the wind and waves like a flying fish on the sea, and shuttles past.

   Soon Mu You returned to the Devil's Sea again.

   Stopping at the boundary of the Devil's Sea, Mu You opened the map, and the marked shipwreck location was located near a blood-red coral reef.

   Mu You first confirmed his position on the map at this time, then carefully estimated the bearing and distance of the marked point he was going to, and then sailed towards the determined direction.

  The name of this sea is called Devil, which sounds scary, but in fact the sea is quite calm. It is because of the characteristic that there is no resurrection here that ordinary people and creatures dare not approach easily, but it makes navigation in it unimpeded.

   This time the voyage will take a longer distance. The sea area of ​​the Devil's Triangle is still very large. Along the road, Muyou referred to the various small islands and reefs marked on the map, constantly adjusted his direction, and drove from morning to dusk, before finally finding the coral reef group.

   After confirming that this is the place marked on the map, Mu You went to the deep sea area away from the reefs, put away the boat, and plunged into the sea.

  The seabed here is shallower than expected. After diving for more than 120 meters, it sank to the bottom.

  As soon as he landed, Mu You felt he stepped on something, and there was a crisp sound.

   Looking down, it turned out to be a skull.

   It wasn't that he just landed on a skull by such a coincidence, but that there were densely packed human bones and animal bones hidden under the surrounding mud on the seabed, which almost filled the bottom of the sea, and there was no normal place to stay at all.

  Mu You could only move forward with one foot and one bone.

  The sea is calm and calm, but it is not the case below the sea.

  Not long after Mu You landed, green ghosts emerged from the surrounding bones, screaming with their teeth and claws, circling around him.

  These are unlucky people who accidentally died here due to shipwreck or various reasons. Their bodies were corroded into skeletons, and their souls turned into ghosts.

  The concept of losing lifespan after becoming a ghost. Unless it is purified or swallowed by other ghosts, it can only be imprisoned on the bottom of the sea and tortured forever.

  Long mental torture has already caused them to wear away all their humanity, leaving only the instinct to attack and devour each other.

  After walking around Mu You for a while, some ghosts gradually became bolder and passed through Mu You's body.

  Mu You suddenly felt a chill in his body, and a tiny soul was torn off, his blood volume did not decrease, but his spirit was a little weak.

This loss quickly recovered, but with so many ghosts, if one came up to bite him, his spirit would be exhausted in an instant, and he would fall into a coma, and his soul would be eaten by the ghosts, and he would become a skeleton of the seabed. One…

  At this time, in the Omniscient Crystal, the attributes of ghosts have already appeared.

  【Ordinary ghost (level 3-7): attack power 3-21, health value 200-1000, mana value 100-900, ability: soul bite, possessing a skeleton. Negative talent: ground binding, unable to leave the place of death too far. 】

  These ghosts are very weak, but one very troublesome thing is that they are immune to physical attacks, and all physical damage will directly penetrate them and cannot cause damage.

   Fortunately, they are not immune to magic, otherwise they would be really invincible.

  Mu You released a circle of fire directly, and the raging flames rolled past, driving away the circle of resentful spirits around.

   But these guys are not very afraid of fire magic. In an environment like the bottom of the sea, the fire magic can't exert much power, and it will be greatly weakened when it appears. But the magic of other attributes has insufficient attack power.

  The only things that can really restrain the damage to ghosts and make them fearful are the attack magic of the thunder system and the holy light system.

  Unfortunately, Mu You doesn't have these two kinds of spells at hand, but he does have another weapon that can effectively kill ghosts—vampire claws!

  The casting material of the vampire's claw is the "soul purification stone", which is originally a stone specially used to destroy the soul, so although the vampire's claw is a physical weapon, it can directly attack ghosts.

  Mu You directly switched to the vampire skin. It was only dusk now, and the night king's attribute bonuses hadn't taken effect yet, but it was enough to have claw weapons to use.

   Mu You pierced a ghost behind him that was trying to sneak attack him with one claw.

  The claws were inserted into the ghost's body, and there was a chirping sound, like the sound of roast meat melting.

  The ghost wailed in pain, its HP dropped rapidly, and Mu You stepped up to make two more claws, strangling the ghost completely.

  【You killed an ordinary ghost (level 4), and gained 4 experience points. 】

   After killing this thing, you can't get lifespan, and there is no drop reward. It is far less cost-effective than killing normal monsters.

But at least it can increase experience, watching the experience bar slowly rise, Mu You can be regarded as motivated, waving his two claws to bully these little ghosts, killing them on the bottom of the sea, and soon expending the few remaining experience bars fill up.

  【Experience value: 645/640, do you want to upgrade? 】

  Mu You rose to level nine on the spot, adding one to all attributes. 5 points of free attribute, 1 point of agility, 2 points of intelligence, and the remaining two points are added to constitution, and continue to increase the upper limit of health.

  His current attributes are: strength 12 points, agility 24 points, intelligence 36 points, constitution 14 points.

  The density of ghosts under the sea is high enough, so killing monsters and upgrading is very cool. However, as more and more ghosts are attracted, Mu You will soon be unable to kill them.

   Seeing that he was about to be surrounded by dense green phantoms, Mu You decisively switched to ghost form and assimilated into a member of the ghosts.

  After eliminating the breath of the living, the ghosts finally calmed down a bit, and looked around in confusion, as if they were looking for where the fresh life was hidden just now.

   Mu You took advantage of the one-minute ghost time to escape from the swarm of ghosts, found a nearby seabed mountain without skeletons, and crouched down on the narrow top of the mountain.

   Looking at the hordes of ghost corps that almost filled the bottom of the sea below, Mu You also felt his scalp tingling. This scene is really weird to the extreme, if you change to someone with poor psychological quality, you may be directly frightened and faint.

   Shaking his head, Mu You took out the lamp post from his backpack and shook the bell on it.

  The bell rang, and the lamp post above quickly lit up dimly. A weak soul phantom emerged in the light, it looked like a man wearing a pirate hat.

   "Hey, I've arrived at the sinking site of the Ghost, where is your ship?"

   Mu You asked in Protoss. When he brushed the ghost just now, he had already scanned his surroundings. There were only densely packed skeletons and mud on the bottom of the sea, and there was no sign of any ship at all.

  In such a large sea area, it is impossible to find that ship without some guidance.

   Unexpectedly, when Willie appeared this time, he became excited, lying on the edge of the lamppost, scanning the seabed below: "I can feel it! It's nearby...the breath of the enemy, and my beloved ship..."

   "In which direction?"

   "Over there!" Willie felt it, and quickly pointed out a direction.

   Mu You had no choice but to switch to the ghost form, and rushed in his direction, and then continued to search under the guidance of the other party.

   After nearly an hour of locating back and forth along the guideline, Willie's reminder finally stopped.

"right here!"

   Mu You was floating in the sky far away from the bottom of the sea, and Willie in the lamppost pointed excitedly at the opening below.

"you sure?"

   Mu You looked down, and there was only a seabed sandy land full of skeletons below. It was flat, and it was hard to see that a large ship was buried.

   "Unmistakable! Right beneath our feet, the smell of my poor Wraith, and the foul, disgusting smell of traitors!"

  Seeing Willy's eyes were red and he was trembling with excitement, Mu You hurriedly put him back in his backpack. Don't let his excited soul dissipate before he found the boat.

   Mu You switched to ghost form, sank into the sandy seabed, and searched around.

   However, there is nothing else nearby except skeletons and sand.

  Seeing that the time for the ghost form is approaching, Mu You was thinking whether to switch back to the real body, and took out the jack-o-lantern to take a photo.

  As a result, just as he turned back to the entity, he suddenly felt his feet go soft.

  The sand below seemed to be hollowed out, unable to bear his weight, it turned into quicksand and swallowed him directly.

  Suddenly plunged into the depths of the sand, and was still falling at an extremely fast speed. Mu You was also surprised, but he didn't struggle, because he had already seen the hint in his mind.

  【You have entered the 'Abyss of the Dead', a passage set aside by a group of undead pirates to preserve their ships and the remaining humanity, hoping to have a chance to see the sun one day. 】

   Mu You slid down this path of the dead, and after a few minutes, he fell into a deeper and darker sea.

  Under the seabed, there is another sea area?

   Mu You didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly swam towards a bright place above.

  In this claustrophobic deep sea that is so dark that there is no light, any land creature will subconsciously go towards that point of light.

  A moment later, Mu You penetrated the light and floated to the surface of the water.

   What appeared in front of his eyes was a vast space with a height of sixty to seventy meters, and he was lying on the stalactites on the shore.

   Judging from the location, this should be a hollow stone layer between the bottom of the Devil's Sea and the deeper sea.

   At the same time, another reminder appeared in his mind: [You have reached the boat drop bend, the resting place for the souls of a group of pirates and desperadoes. 】

   "Is it really here..."

   Mu You climbed ashore, held a magic wand, and scanned the surrounding environment.

   There is air in this space, and there are many luminous aquatic plants growing, which illuminate this place.

  The ground is full of quicksand and various fish skeletons, and the surrounding boulders, like the fingers of death, block other directions and isolate a conspicuous path in this space.

   Mu You walked in along the path, stepping on dead bones.

   After passing a stone arch, Mu You saw the huge ship moored in the sand in the distance.

   It was a two-masted ship with a length of nearly 100 meters, and the mast almost reached the ceiling of the stone layer above.

  However, this majestic and majestic giant ship was broken into two parts from the middle at this time, which is very regrettable to watch.

   Mu You didn't have time to regret the matter of the ship, because as he approached, ghosts rushed out of the ship.

  These ghosts were all dressed up as pirates, holding muskets and swords, looking at Mu You in the distance, as if they were wild beasts that had found fresh meat, and they all rushed towards him with wild laughter.

  The level of these pirate ghosts is a bit higher than the ghosts on the seabed, generally between level 5 and 10, and they seem to retain considerable wisdom, and they know how to coordinate their actions!

   Mu You used the Vampire Claw to deal with a few pirate ghosts, but the same problem remained. There were too many of them, so he had to switch ghost form and retreated to the shore just now.

   Fortunately, these ghosts are restricted by the ground binding and cannot leave the ship too far, so they cannot catch up to the entrance here for the time being.

   Mu You stood in the distance and observed around. There are at least 400 pirate ghosts here.

  If there is enough time, Mu You doesn't mind grinding away these ghosts slowly, but the problem is that he is short on time, and it is almost eight o'clock in the evening, and he only has two hours left to stay.

  In this case, it seems that only the shadow ghost can make a move in time...

  Mu You opened the backpack first, called Vivienne out, and asked her if shadow ghosts could deal with ghosts.

   "Of course, shadow ghosts are a kind of half-spiritual body, and they don't even need to be possessed to attack ghosts directly." Vivienne said.

"Very good!"

   Hearing that there is no need to possess, Mu You immediately felt a lot more relaxed. Otherwise, in this place where ghosts cannot be resurrected, it would be really difficult to use shadow ghosts safely.

  Taking out the shadow ghost box, Mu You rushed to the pirate ship again, threw the box among the dead souls, and then retreated quickly before the ghosts surrounded him.

  Here, Vivienne has opened the box with remote magic control, released the shadow ghost, and then used the flying spell to call the box back.

  After the shadow ghost appeared, he wanted to find someone to possess him immediately, but as soon as he appeared, he saw a dense crowd of ghosts around him. He was furious and waved his claws to tear apart the two nearest dead souls.

  When the other pirate ghosts saw their own people being killed, they were instantly full of hostility towards the Shadow Ghost. They roared angrily and swarmed up, biting the Shadow Ghost from all angles.

  But these low-level ghosts, how could they be the opponents of shadow ghosts.

  Mu You and Vivienne were hiding on the shore in the distance to watch.

   This is the first time Mu You has witnessed the battle of shadow ghosts with his own eyes, and finally let him know what cruelty is.

The shadow ghost is like a tiger rushing into a flock of sheep, killing all ghosts. All ghosts can't survive two moves under its claws. As long as they are caught, they will be torn into pieces in the next second, and then swallowed by it. The belly, turned into a part of its own energy.

  After killing more than a hundred ghosts in a row, the other pirate ghosts finally gave up. They surrounded the shadow ghosts one by one, but they didn't dare to get close to them. In the end, they all retreated into the cabin in fear and disappeared.

  The shadow ghost was about to go forward to chase and kill, but at this moment, a loud roar sounded from inside the hull.

  A skull-shaped soul ten times taller than the ghosts just now, with a crown on his head, a captain's cloak behind him, and a giant sword in his hand, slowly walked out of the cabin.

  The height of more than ten meters is in stark contrast to the thin figure of Shadow Ghost.

  At this time, Mu You felt that the lamp post in the backpack suddenly began to tremble violently, so he took it out to have a look. Willie had automatically appeared in the lamp post, staring at the skeleton ghost in front of him with red eyes, and said excitedly: "It's him, my vice-captain Victor, the leader of the betrayers, the culprit of everything, as long as you help me solve it." After him, the ghost ship is yours!"

   Mu You glanced over there, and the Omniscient Crystal reflected back the attributes of the giant ghost.

  【Level 30 pirate ghost boss, attack power 300-400, HP 45200, mana 12000...】

   "Level 30?!"

   Mu You was taken aback for a moment, almost thinking that he had misread.

  How could there be such a high-level ghost? Besides, with this kind of strength, he should have gotten whatever he wanted in the astral world long ago. What kind of pirate was he in his lifetime?

   "Because he has been devouring and absorbing the power of other undead."

  Vivian explained without any surprise: "This environment where earth-bound ghosts gather is like raising Gu, and it is easy to raise some very high-level big ghosts."

   "No wonder the other ghosts under the sea are so weak..."

   Mu You nodded, and looked at the distant battlefield again.

  At this time, Shadow Ghost and Phantom have already fought into a group. Both sides are hot-tempered masters. Once they fight, they can't stop anymore.

  Mu You originally thought that he was stable. In his impression, Shadow Ghost was an invincible existence. How could he still lose in one-on-one?

   As a result, after watching for a while, he suddenly realized something was wrong: Facing this monster of level 30, Shadow Ghost actually felt suppressed!

   "Could it be impossible to beat?" Mu You's eyelids twitched a few times.

   If he were to lose, he would be at a huge loss. Not to mention that he couldn't complete the mission, he would also lose a shadow ghost.
