This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 378

  Chapter 378 Lightless Night

  Below the post, there is also a picture attached.

  On the table in the picture, there are eight map fragments placed in a standard octagonal shape, and the arrows on the back of the eight fragments all point to the center point.

   Mu You clicked on the picture and took a closer look. It was indeed a fragment of the map, and the arrows were arranged in a similar way.

  However, does this mean that all eight fragments belong to Eternal Night City? Mu You expressed his doubts, otherwise, how would he explain the three eternal night fragments on his body?

  There are only nine fragments in each city, and eight plus three make up eleven fragments. Fragments can never be repeated.

   Obviously, there must be some fragments of other unborn cities mixed in here.

  However, since the other party dared to post so blatantly, there should be quite a few pieces of Eternal Night in his hand. Even if the remaining six shards were in the other party's hands, he would not be surprised.

   Mu You looked back at the post and found the column for the person who posted it.

   Blood Dawn, Tyrant.

   Both names look a little familiar.

   Mu You searched the forum, and sure enough, he immediately found a lot of results.

  Scarlet Dawn, a first-class power in a certain country in South America, ranks twenty-sixth on the world power rankings, and its strength alone is not particularly outstanding.

However, the area that this South American country is dealing with in the Astral World happens to be the Undercity, which is what most people now think is the hidden location of the entrance to Eternal Night City. No wonder they are so confident in taking down Eternal Night City. Good location.

   This is similar to the situation when the Dragon Group Ice Emperor took down Sunset and Twilight. Their entire power is rooted here, and their local operations are deeply rooted. It is impossible for forces from other countries to intervene.

   Therefore, the competitors faced by the Dragon Group Ice Emperor at the beginning were almost all other domestic forces, and the foreign forces all wisely gave up these two cities automatically.

  The situation in the Undercity this time is even simpler, because Scarlet Dawn is the only first-class organization in their country, and it is almost overwhelming in the country, with no competitors at all.

At the same time, the president of this guild, 'Tyrant', is also a player with outstanding personal strength. The current level is 21, and he is one of the few epic players in the world. In addition, it is said that the tyrant has a very powerful wolf Wang skin, and relying on this skin, commanded all the werewolf natives in the dark city, established an underground werewolf tribe, and his subordinates also got a werewolf skin by brushing each other's fragments, and some high-level guild members also had various An advanced version of werewolf skin, it is no exaggeration to call this organization a wolf den.

   And this also means that the actual power of Scarlet Dawn in the Undercity, in addition to their guild itself, also has the entire tribe of aboriginal werewolves!

After reading the search results, Mu You also understood the source of the opponent's confidence: in other places, the strength of this guild may not be enough to support them to compete for Sky City, but in Eternal Night City, they are the real leaders, no other The power of players can be compared.

   "A local snake..."

   Mu You pondered for a moment.

   Unfortunately, he did not intend to give up on Eternal Night City.

  Now he has three fragments in his hand, the owner of Evernight City, he is going to let Lin Xue take it.

  Lin Xue has the inheritance of the **** of death, and he also has a level 30 shadow ghost at hand to use. Even without the help of the Octopus King this time, these two trump cards alone are enough to achieve crushing in terms of strength.

After all, only fools can enter the entrance of Sky City. No matter how many werewolf aborigines the opponent leads, they will not be able to use them in the final competition. As long as they enter the entrance of Eternal Night City, the actual combat power of the opponent is still only that of Scarlet Dawn itself. those people.

   After getting a general idea of ​​the opponent's strength, Mu You closed the forum and returned to the game.

   After completing today's dungeon dungeons, Mu You took out the Elven Horn.

  The Elven Horn was actually refreshed last night, but he was dealing with Shadow God at the time, and later he was busy dealing with various real-life matters, so he never had time to log in to the game, and he only found time now.

  【You sounded the horn of the elves. 】

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

[The grudge of the dark night: Werewolves and vampires are one of the important parts of the residents of the Undercity. The feud between the two races can be traced back to an extremely long time. sworn enemy.

Due to the laws of the Undercity, the two races can barely maintain peace on the surface at ordinary times. will become invalid and become a completely dark night), the werewolves will collectively transform, and the strength and perception of the entire group will reach their peak, and this is also a good opportunity for them to hunt vampires.

Therefore, every dark night is a **** battle between the two races. When resolving their old grievances, the two sides will fight to the death in the streets and alleys of the dark city, regardless of the occasion. It will often cause great damage and disturbance to the Undercity itself and other residents, and the residents of the Undercity have been troubled by it for many years.

  Now, it coincides with the opening of the vampire tribe's once-in-thousand-year clan meeting. A large number of vampires from other places poured into the Undercity. At the same time, a new wolf king was born among the werewolves, leading the scattered werewolf tribe. It can be predicted that in this lightless night, the intensity of the fighting between the two sides will reach its peak, and the residents of the Undercity will also reach their peak of tolerance for the two races.

  As the ruler of Undercity, Fred cannot destroy the purpose of "freedom and openness" of Undercity and drive one of them out of the city, so he can only entrust fools to act secretly. 】

  【Task content: Stop the dispute between the two parties on the next dark night! Six days later will be the dark night of this month. You can choose to help one of the vampires or werewolves. You must make the other disappear in the Undercity within a week, and permanently solve this hidden scourge for the Undercity. 】

  【Task Reward: Depends on completion. 】

  The horn blew, and unexpectedly, a brand new mission was spawned for the first time.

   The task on the side of the dark elves is to help solve the problem of the old enemies of werewolves and vampires.

Judging from the mission description, the Queen of Darkness has obviously endured these two races for a long time, and has long wanted to drive one of them out. Go the other way, so it became a task for him.

  As for the method of doing the task, it seems extremely troublesome, but it is not too difficult to think about it carefully. Vampires and werewolves can coexist in the Undercity for a long time because of their equal strengths. Otherwise, if one of them is too strong, the other will be beaten away long ago.

  So if you want to complete the task, you only need to destroy the balance of power between the two sides, and he doesn't need to do the rest. The stronger side will naturally drive the weaker side away.

   This mission is relatively new, but compared to the mission itself, what Mu You cares more about is a word in the mission description: Dark Night!

  "The city of fools will wake up at dawn and end in the lightless night."

   This is a prophecy provided by Virgo.

  The first half of this prophecy has been fulfilled. Dawn City was born at dawn, and other sky cities that followed also rose at their corresponding times.

  However, Mu You has been puzzled by the meaning of the second half of the sentence "Night Without Light", and can only guess according to the law that the Eternal Night City should be born between 2:00 and 4:00 in the middle of the night.

   This can of course be explained, but it is a bit far-fetched after all. After all, the dawn is a definite period of time, while the dark night seems to refer to a certain night for the whole night.

   Until now, seeing this line of explanation in the game text with his own eyes, Mu You finally understood: the so-called 'lightless night' refers to the night of the full moon in the underground world!

As we all know, the Undercity is a city that never sleeps. The fluorescent stones and sunflowers on the ceiling permanently provide light sources for this underground city. Failed, thus plunged the Undercity into complete darkness.

   That is to say, the birth time of Eternal Night City is not limited to a certain time of day, but is limited to the night of the full moon every month!

  After confirming the content of this task, Mu You didn't rush to choose one. He pressed his pocket watch first and looked at other tasks.

  The result is still the same, the pigeon fairy is still the same pigeon, and the forest elves and the sun elves are still the original tasks.

  After some comparison, it turns out that the task of the Undercity is the most suitable one. After all, there will be a dark night soon. If you miss this time, the Eternal Night City will have to wait another month to be born.

It just so happens that his competitor this time, 'Tyrant', is also the leader of the werewolf tribe, and he is directly related to this mission. He simply stayed in the Undercity for the past few days, while dealing with the Scarlet Dawn organization and collecting map fragments, By the way, complete this task.

  【You have accepted the task of 'The Feud of the Dark Night', please rush to the Undercity as soon as possible to try to stop the upcoming dispute between werewolves and vampires. 】

  After receiving the task, Mu You didn't rush to the Undercity, but manipulated the characters to jump off the Dawn City and returned to the Cook Islands.

  He didn't forget that there is still a task of 'Looking for Louise' that has not been completed here. He now understands the ending of Louise, who became a shadow ghost in the final experiment, and was probably eliminated in their previous battle with the Undead Society.

   And now, at least those eight pages of the diary must be given to Louise's grandmother, the last relics of the little girl.

  Although there is no reward for this task, since you have accepted it, you still have to have a beginning and an end.

  【You have come to Zhenyu Village. 】

  【You found Louise's grandmother at the west end of Zhenyu Village, near Granny Yuantang's residence. 】

  【The old lady trembled when she saw you coming, as if she had already guessed something, and after a few seconds of being absent-minded, she walked towards you anxiously. 】

  【Come in front of you, the old lady carefully asks you about Louise's whereabouts, you choose...】

  The options are [tell the truth] and [weave a beautiful lie].

  The Undead Society was destroyed, and there was no need to hide anything at this time, so Mu You directly chose to 'tell the truth'.

  【You will tell the truth about what you saw and heard in the Undead Society, and hand over the eight fragments of Louise's diary to the old woman. 】

  【The old lady held the diary fragment with trembling hands, and looked at the familiar handwriting on it, she couldn't help crying, and her already old figure seemed to be ten years old again. 】

  【After reading the diary, the old lady has already understood her granddaughter's experiences and endings over the years. Although the sadness is unspeakable, there is finally a result. She doesn't have to worry and wait day after day...】

  Mu You sighed when he read the text description, this kind of thing is very tragic, but things like this happen almost every day at the bottom of the Astral World, and there is only so much he can do.

   Shaking his head, to put an end to this task, Mu You was also about to leave, but at this moment, a new text popped up in the game.

  【You were about to leave, but the old lady stopped you suddenly. 】

  【You are a person who kept your promise, completed her commission from beginning to end, and helped her bring back her granddaughter's relics. The old lady took out a 'Devil Devouring Gu Jar' from her body and wanted to give it to you. 】

  【The old lady tells you that now that her shadow has returned, she is going to leave this sad place of the Cook Islands to take a look at the outside world while she still has a few years to live. This Gu worm tank was originally prepared to deal with the people of the undead society, but now that the undead will perish, this thing is no longer useful to her, so I gave it to you as a reward for the mission. 】

  【You have obtained the 'Devil-eating Gu Pot': a poisonous pot dedicated to cultivating Gu insects, which can give birth to one Demon-eating Gu every day. 】

[Devil-devouring Gu: It can be placed as a trap, or planted for a unit when the body touches it. After entering the body, the Demon-devouring Gu will continuously devour the magic power in the host at a rate of 100 points per second until the magic power is lower than 10% Or until the Gu worm is taken out. If you take Gu forcibly, you will lose 100 points of maximum life. 】

"Huh?"

   Mu You's eyes lit up.

  The jar for raising Gu, this thing is good, it will automatically produce one Gu every day, and it can be planted for the enemy to disgust people during the battle.

   Swallowing 100 points of mana per second can't be said to be fatal, but it will definitely make the enemy uncomfortable if it is delayed for a long time. And if the enemy forcibly extracts the Gu, not to mention digging out the heart and liver to take out the Gu worm, and then permanently loses 100 life points... Anyway, no matter how you choose, as long as the Gu worm is used, it can make the enemy very sick .

   And if there are no enemies, this Gu can still be used by him. With the golden silkworm's devouring, it is equivalent to gaining five action points for nothing every day, which is not a loss at all.

   Sure enough, the beginning and the end are right!

   Mu You accepted the Gu Jar with satisfaction, and then bid farewell to the old woman and left.

  After returning to Sky City, he teleported directly to Undercity.

  【You appeared in the Undercity. 】

  Because he was familiar with the tasks in the Undercity last week, he already has some understanding of the city's divisions.

  The Undercity is divided into an inner city and an outer city. The inner city is where the dark elves gather, while the outer city is where other races live together.

  Mu You directly controlled the characters to go to the outer city, and wandered the streets with pumpkin lanterns.

  His current goal is to find a werewolf first, then track the werewolf to find their lair, and then talk about the situation.

  Werewolves usually appear in human form, which is difficult to identify, but these guys also like to hide in some dark and remote places to kill civilians and plunder life, so Mu You is also looking for such places to patrol at this time.

   After jumping repeatedly in some hidden streets nearby for an hour, the jack-o-lantern finally sent a reminder.

  【Jack-o-lantern effects, trigger! 】

  【You are in the narrow and dark alley ahead, and you see a few drops of fresh blood scattered on the ground. Through the glow of the jack-o-lantern, you can see that there are some traces of struggle and dragging on the ground. 】

  【Judging from the footprints left at the scene, the victim was most likely a young woman who was attacked by some kind of creature and dragged into the alley. Judging from the freshness of the blood, the attack happened not long ago. 】

  【This seems to be an opportunity to act bravely, do you want to track the trace immediately? 】
