This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 227

  Chapter 227 Deception

  Due to the open field of vision and few obstacles on the snow field, the density of monsters is not high.

   But the advantage is that there are few people here, and there will be no things like grabbing monsters, so you can level up with peace of mind.

  Mu You and Lin Xue formed a team, relying on Zhan Ying's scouting, to kill all the way to the depths of the snow field.

The monsters on the snow field are mainly ice-type trolls and snow monsters, and their levels are generally between 7-10. There are also a small number of high-level monsters such as ice-field spiders and ice-field mammoths. Spells often have strong resistance, but the movement speed is relatively slow.

  With the level of Mu You and Lin Xue, the strength of monsters in this place has never been a threat. The two walked along the road and slashed and killed them with ease.

  There are still five or six hours before the night operation, and Mu You's experience bar only has more than 500 points left. There is plenty of time, and he doesn't need to pursue speed too much.

  The ghost ship actually arrived at the capital of the empire as early as this morning, but it did not enter directly, but anchored in an underground river farther away from the capital.

  A place like the Imperial Capital should not be entered too early. After all, it is the home of the Wizarding Association. Not only the Arcane Tower, but also the Wizarding Tower exists. The detection of the entire city is extraordinary. The wizard tower is like a powerful radar device that detects everything that threatens the emperor. It's okay for one or two players to appear scattered, but a large number of fools suddenly gather and sneak in, which is easy to cause alertness.

The earlier one enters, the more people appear, and the higher the risk of being noticed by the Wizard Tower. Therefore, in order to avoid exposing the action plan in advance, Jiuyou has discussed with Mu You before, and the ghost ship will be at the earliest 20 days before the action. Minutes into the city. After entering, hundreds of boarding personnel only need to cooperate with their actions from the outside, attract the attention of the enemy, interfere with the enemy's reinforcements, and so on.

  The real main force for breaking the tower still depends on the one hundred airborne personnel who entered through the floating gate.

   Fighting on and off, fighting from sunset to night, collecting countless ice-type materials, Mu You finally successfully accumulated enough experience points, and chose to upgrade on the spot.

  Current level: level 13 (experience value: 5/20480), attributes: strength 19, agility 38, intelligence 57, constitution 30, health 5000 points, mana 6700.

   After adjusting the attribute points, Mu You raised his wrist and glanced at his watch.

   It was already 10:20 in the evening, and the time was almost up. The two immediately put away their weapons and went back to the Xueyuan gate.

  Mu You let Lin Xue and a group of summoned creatures into the backpack, took the backpack and teleported to the vampire's tomb, went straight to the secret room on the top floor, and transferred the remains of Vivian and Grandma Lin Xue out.

   This battle will of course rely on the resurrection of the two corpses. The large number of soul points that Lin Xue collected before was prepared for this time.

   Sealing the two bodies into the prepared ice coffin, Mu You returned to the bottom of the tomb, and teleported again.

  When I opened my eyes again, I was already on the ghost ship.

Mu You left the captain's room and went out to take a look. At this time, the Ghost was in a dark underground lake tunnel. On the carbonate stone tip above his head, it seemed to be raining, dripping water continuously, covering the entire area. The space is soaked in cold and damp.

  This is outside the imperial capital, located in the depths of rock formations more than 1,600 meters underground. There are very few underground rivers at this depth. If it weren't for the beaver's map, Muyou would not have been able to find such a remote river.

   Back in the cabin, Mu You reopened the map and reconfirmed the route.

   Next, follow this dark river to the north. After passing through a curved culvert, the terrain will gradually rise. They need to go upstream all the way, and finally they will reach a groundwater waterfall located at a depth of 100 meters underground.

   This is a very special landmark in the capital of the empire, also known as the 'Inverted River'. As the name suggests, it is said that because of the jet of air from the ground, the water in this waterfall flows from bottom to top.

   And as long as you take the channel of the inverted river to go up, you can go directly to the imperial capital and enter a certain reservoir.

   This is the safest and most concealed passage to enter the imperial capital from underground.

   After confirming the passage, Mu You set the course, and the Ghost weighed anchor and set sail.

   Then go out and come to the bow.

At this moment, the deck was already crowded with people. Obviously, as the scheduled action time got closer, everyone lost their minds to rest. At this time, all the staff were online, and the players who had been living in each cabin before had also left. After leaving the house, gearing up, preparing for the next battle.

"Everyone, enter the imperial capital in about 20 minutes. With so many people breaking into the imperial capital together, it is very likely that the wizard tower will detect something abnormal. Therefore, the moment they enter the city, everyone needs to disembark immediately and spread out. What happens next? Take action according to your ability, just be careful not to be caught by the guards who are chasing you." Mu You announced this message to everyone through his identity as the captain.

  Jiuyou also stood up at this time and told everyone where the Arcane Tower was located: Zhiye Forest in the north of the imperial capital, where the Imperial Guards were stationed, and the Arcane Tower was built in the very center of the Guards camp.

   A group of people on the deck nodded.

  There is nothing left to entrust. Mu You's task is to send people into the city. I believe that the various forces have already made arrangements for what each person should do.

  Among the bumps of the ship, time passed slowly.

  Twenty minutes later, the ghost ship approached the Jiyong Waterfall on the map on time.

Others only have the perspective of the game, so they may not be able to see clearly, but Muyou stood at the bow of the boat and could see it clearly. As expected, it was exactly as described in the map. Below this waterfall corridor, there is an underground fountain that is constantly erupting. When the surrounding underground river water converges to the center, it will be affected by the jet, forming an upward river. After passing through a tunnel of tens of meters, the underground river water will be sent all the way to the surface reservoir.

   "Sit tight!"

  Mu You turned around and shouted, and then controlled the boat to swim to the jet.

  The closer it got to the corridor, the faster the Ghost was pulled by the airflow, and the speed increased, and finally it rushed straight into the jet range.

  Mu You suddenly felt that the ship was wrapped by an updraft, lifting the whole ship and rising rapidly.

  After a change from overweight to weightlessness, the ghost ship jumped out of the passage like a flying fish and rushed into a wide lake with a short distance of tens of meters.

   This is the official imperial capital.

  Half of the players on the boat immediately jumped off the boat with sense of humor, and scattered to swim in all directions, while the rest of the players, Mu You, were all eliminated from the boat regardless of whether they were slow to react or had other intentions.

   After all the players on the boat were emptied except him, Mu You continued to set the boat and sail away from the original place quickly until he got away from the crowd, came to a remote place at the bottom of the lake, took out the storage bottle, and put the Ghost in the bottle.

  Originally, Mu You planned to find a place to place a dark teleportation array at the bottom of the lake, but was stopped by Vivian. According to her, the wizard tower is extremely sensitive to the teleportation array in the city. Even if the teleportation array is put down, it will be dismantled soon, and her identity will be exposed, so she had to let go of this idea.

   Then Mu You put on the skin of a fortune-teller, drove the goblin submarine, and continued to walk the underground channel to leave the reservoir area.

  Walking around underground along the river, Mu You came ashore from the river at the other end of the city, stowed the submarine, and simply released a ring of fire technique to drive away the water stains on his body.

   Then he took out the thousands of faces and put them on, and activated the deep concealment.

   After making these preparations, he left the river bank and jumped onto the street.

  Looking around, Mu You found himself in a lively night market street.

   This is a street paved with cobblestones, winding forward until it is out of sight.

There is no moon in the sky tonight, but the lights on this street are brightly lit. The light emitted by various magical lamps and gems, like a winding galaxy, illuminates the entire commercial street, which is no worse than the light pollution of modern cities .

  All kinds of strange-shaped shops are filled on both sides of the street, and a large number of customers dressed as wizards gather in front of each shop in twos and threes to buy goods.

  The nearest place to Muyou happened to be a potion material store. An obese woman stood at the door of the pharmacy, shaking her arms vigorously and shouting: "Today's special price, salamander liver, if you want to buy it quickly..."

Mu You glanced in through the window of the pharmacy, and the layout of the store was rather messy, with a row of buckets of medicinal herb powder on the floor, bundles of feathers on the shelves on both sides, fangs and claws of various monsters and The internal organs have obviously only undergone preliminary processing, and most of the materials are still bloodshot and minced meat, resulting in a pungent smell near the pharmacy. Occasionally, pedestrians passing by will run past holding their noses.

   But Mu You is a potionist with good eyesight. He can tell at a glance that although the hygiene of this store is urgent, the items inside are genuine and high-quality products.

   Thinking about it, you are right. To be able to own a storefront in the center of this wizarding capital, almost the most prosperous commercial street in the Protoss world, you can't do it without some real materials.

  Looking down the street, there are also various specialty shops such as a crucible shop, a wizard clothing shop, a wand shop, and a magic shop on this street.

  If there is time, Mu You really wants to visit this city that represents the apex of the prosperity and prosperity of magic civilization in other worlds, but it is a pity that he does not.

  At the corner of the street ahead, Mu You had already seen a group of heavily armed guard knights shuttling through the crowd, rushing towards here quickly.

   Mu You hurriedly turned into a side alley. The fortune teller skin he is using now, dressed in a wizard's robe and pointed hat, is rare and ordinary in this environment.

   Coupled with the cover of thousands of people and thousands of faces, a group of soldiers rushed forward, without even looking at him, they ran out of the street and headed for another street.

  Looking at the direction the guards left, they should be heading for the reservoir where they just appeared. It seems that hundreds of Fools suddenly appeared, and it really caught the attention of the Wizard Tower, who sent people to search.

  Mu You didn't waste time either, relying on the concealment effect of thousands of people and faces, he left the street and went straight to the north of the city.

As for the route, it is much easier to find than imagined. Cities in other worlds are not like the earth, where there are dozens of stories of high-rise buildings. A tall building that stands out from the crowd.

  In this case, the two magic towers in the imperial capital, which are more than 100 meters high, become extremely conspicuous.

  Wizard Tower and Arcane Tower, a wizard association located in the south of the city, and a military camp located in the north of the city. If you just look up, you can see two tall towers facing each other from the south to the north. It's hard not to notice them.

The military camp in the north of the city is not too close to the commercial street, at least fifty or sixty miles away. Fortunately, Mu You does not need to walk on two legs. After leaving the lively night market and entering the deserted street, he directly released the chocobo .

   Under the gallop of the chocobo, in just a few minutes, they rushed to the vicinity of the straight leaf forest in the north of the city.

At this time, the huge and majestic arcane tower was clearly visible, with five flickering light **** flickering on the top, slowly rotating tirelessly around, and countless densely packed mysterious runes were engraved on the body of the tower. Layers of invisible arcane brilliance poured out from the top of the tower, passed through the sea of ​​people, passed through the city, and spread to the invisible distance, distinguishing the enemy from ourselves and escorting the entire empire.

  In the barracks below the Arcane Tower, guard knights of two entire legions are stationed here, and there are a large number of sentries constantly patrolling around to prevent any suspicious people from approaching.

  Of course, Mu You didn't rush directly to the barracks. Instead, he turned the chocobo and ran to the mountain forest not far away. He found a lookout point on the top of the mountain with a wide enough view, released the war eagle, and went to patrol at high altitude.

  Immediately opened the backpack, released Lin Xue and Vivian, and carried out the ice coffin containing the remains of Vivian and Grandma Lin Xue.

  The two of them don't need to fight in the next battle. They just need to find a safe place and provide magic power to the resurrected corpse through the death pact.

  After Lin Xue and Vivian appeared, they also instinctively looked at the Arcane Tower in the distance.

  Lin Xue didn't have any special reaction, just like Mu You, she just sighed with emotion about the strange shape of the Arcane Tower.

  But Vivienne frowned immediately after seeing the tall tower in the distance, and suddenly said: "This tower...is not right!"

"Um?"

  Mu You was taken aback, and hurriedly looked at Vivienne: "What's wrong?"

   "It's too far away to see clearly, but the energy of this tower makes me feel a little awkward. A real arcane tower shouldn't be like this..." Vivienne's tone was rarely uncertain.

   "Isn't this the Arcane Tower?"

  Mu You was startled, and hurriedly ordered Zhanying to get closer, and checked through the Omniscient Crystal.

  However, the result of the feedback was the 'Arcane Tower'.

   "It's the Arcane Tower, that's right." Mu You said.

Vivienne shook her head, thought for a while, and said, "The name is Arcane Tower, and it may not be the actual body of the Arcane Tower. It may be a defective product or a substitute. In short, the breath of this tower is not right. Specifically, Yes or no, you have to be close enough to be sure."

"No way…"

  Mu You's eyelids twitched when he heard that.

If this is not the Arcane Tower, then all the arrangements at the moment are a cover-up set up by the Wizarding Association. The purpose is naturally to attract players to attack and waste precious tower-breaking manpower on this substitute, so as to ensure the authenticity of the Arcane Tower. Security, this point is logically reasonable.

  The question is: This arcane tower was built from scratch under the watchful eyes of the residents of the other world. If this is not the arcane tower, where is the real arcane tower?

  It is impossible for something so big to be built quietly, and then become permanently invisible, right?

   "Actually, there is a place that can accommodate the existence of a tower without being invisible or attracting any attention..." Lin Xue pushed her glasses at this time, and suddenly looked in one direction.

"you mean…"

   Mu You looked in the direction she was looking, and immediately reacted when he saw something standing in the distance.

  Yes, the only way to make a high tower completely invisible is to put a taller tower on the outside of this tower.

   And in this city, the only place that can do this is the other tower of the twin towers, which is one of the symbols of this city of wizards, the wizard tower!

  Mu You took a deep breath.

  The Wizards Association is really impressive. They actually built the real Arcane Tower inside the Wizard Tower!

This is a big gamble. This move not only fooled the Fool, but also deceived the residents of the entire Star Spirit World. Even the insiders of the Wizarding Association may not know about it. Only in this way can we achieve this kind of deception Effect.
