This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 3

  Chapter 3 Owl Shop

   At this time, a new text popped up in the game.

  【You found something like a branch at the place where the fugitive left. When you picked it up, it turned out to be an old magic wand! 】

[Old wand: This is a junk wand made of the cheapest red oak branch. , you'd better get a new one. 】

   Any windfalls?

  Mu You's eyes lit up, and he clicked on the text of 'Magic Wand'.

  A crooked branch quietly appeared in his hand.

  The length is about 30 centimeters, and there are already signs of decay in many places on the surface, as rough as a branch randomly broken from a dead tree.

   "Is this the magic wand?"

   Mu You fiddled with the branch in his hand for a while, and then tried to swing forward a few times, but there was no response.

  He had no choice but to look at the text in the game again.

  【A magic wand is a necessary tool for a wizard to release magic, but if you want to release magic, you need to learn at least one spell first. 】

   "Do you really need a spell..."

  Mu You sighed, obviously the wand is just a tool, and the magic spell is the foundation. The wand alone has zero effect on him.

   "Spell spell, I want a spell, give me a spell! Anything!"

   Mu You muttered, and continued the game.

  【You got your first magic wand in your life! This gives you great motivation. Although you don't know any magic yet, you have already taken the first solid step on the path of a great wizard! 】

  【Confidence sprouts in your heart, and ambition begins to expand in your chest. You walk through the path in the middle with great arrogance, like a king who expands his territory! 】

  【A poisonous snake suddenly jumped out of the grass ahead. 】

  【You were bitten to death by a poisonous snake! 】

  【You are dead! Lifespan -1, remaining lifespan is 57 years. 】

"Depend on!"

   Mu You was dumbfounded, and died suddenly again!

  But, is there something not quite right...

  —What an option! ?

  He hasn't used his pocket watch yet, why was he killed suddenly?

  Mu You was still thinking just now, with a pocket watch in his hand, it is impossible for him to die in this game, but he was immediately slapped in the face.

   There is actually such a way of death that doesn't even have an option... It's too bad for martial arts!

  In this way of death, his pocket watch is useless, because even if he goes back in time, he has no other choice in the game, he can only continue to move forward, and then repeat the death process again.

   Mu You cursed and cursed, but could only continue playing while cursing.

  Although he had lost a year of life, he had obtained a heaven-defying pocket watch and a magic wand after all, so it was a bit reluctant to let him stop now.

  【In the rules of the astral world, death is not the end. All creatures in this world will lose one year of life every time they die, and will be resurrected at the nearest birth point. 】

  【Only when your lifespan is below zero, will you completely disappear in this world! 】

  In the game, a description first popped up.

   Just as he thought before, sure enough, every death in this game will reduce one year of life span.

   And his current lifespan is 57 years, that is to say, he still has 57 lives to waste...

   "It's okay, I only lost one life, I still have more!"

   Mu You comforted himself and continued on the road.

  【After the pain of death, you were resurrected at the last intersection. 】

  【You start again and walk in the snow-covered forest. 】

  【You see a little white rabbit grazing on the side of the road, its cute appearance reminds you of the smell of spicy rabbit head, and you can't help but get close to it. 】

  【The little white rabbit found you, and the little white rabbit launched a 'savage collision' on you. 】

  【You were killed by a little white rabbit! 】

  【You are dead! Lifespan -1, current lifespan: 56 years. 】

  wtf?

  Mu You almost smashed his phone on the spot.

   Your game is really poisonous!

  Who wants to eat spicy rabbit head, I want to die, okay? How about being coquettish?

   Two consecutive direct deaths made Mu You's heart bleed.

  He finally felt the malice towards the players in this game. He had just taken a few steps, and he even took two lives from him.

   It's a pity that the game didn't give him too much time to complain, and the new text has already popped up.

  【Amidst the howling cold wind, you were resurrected at the intersection again. 】

  【The experience of dying again finally made you realize your own insignificance. In this treacherous and dark magical world, you, as a fool, are the lowest and most humble existence, even a rabbit on the side of the road is not something you can deal with! 】

  Looking at the awkward text, Mu You managed to hold back the urge to curse.

  He is actually very curious, what is his state in that world? It's fine if he can't beat a bat poisonous snake, but if he can't even beat a rabbit, what kind of weak chicken is he?

  【After the rest, you set off again and embark on the journey to find the village. This time, you will be more cautious. 】

  【You came to the small road just now again, looking at the harmless little white rabbit in front of you, you chose to go far away. 】

[The rabbit quickly disappeared from your sight. You breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move forward. Suddenly, you saw a wooden house store standing abruptly at the intersection in front of you. There was an owl-shaped signboard hanging on the wooden roof, which read 'Owl shop'. 】

[The owner of the roadside store is a man with an owl face. It saw you and greeted you: "Hello adventurer, all the treasures I sell here are genuine treasures, pass by, don't miss it!" 】

  【Do you want to enter the 'Owl Shop'? 】

   There seems to be a small shop similar to a roadside stall in front of it, but the owner is a weird owl man. I don't know if it is another trap.

   Frightened, Mu You chose [Enter the store], while holding the pocket watch firmly with his right hand, ready to return it immediately if something abnormal happened.

   Fortunately, the imaginary situation that he was killed by a large group of owls when he entered the store did not happen. This seems to be a safe place to trade.

  【You enter the store and see three items on the store window. 】

  【Burning Scroll: A scroll that records magic spells. After using it, you can learn the low-level fire spell 'Burning Flame'. Value: 100-year lifespan]

  【Invisibility Cloak: Just like its name, it can make you invisible after wearing it, but the cloak cannot cover up your voice and smell. Value: 55 years of life]

[Charging wand: This is a special wand. Whenever someone nearby releases magic, it will absorb the overflowing magic power and charge one grid. After filling five grids, it can release a high-power electric shock magic without consumption. And clear the charge. Value: 70-year lifespan. 】

   "They are all good things!"

   Mu You's saliva is almost drooling, but unfortunately, he can't afford any of them...

Even the cheapest invisibility cloak has a lifespan of 55 years, and now he only has 56 years in total. After buying it, there is only a trace of blood left. If he is scratched by a wild monster on the side of the road, he will die. Even if you give him ten guts, He didn't dare to play so big!
