This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 393

  Chapter 393 Everything for the family

  In the quiet and dark underground channel.

  At a certain moment, two bats flew past one after the other, the bat behind quickly caught up with the bat in front, screamed in the air and started attacking the other bat frantically, and the scene was soon spattered with blood.

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, and staggered to fly deeper into the river.

  The bat below took some effort to get rid of the obstacle, and immediately took off again, chasing in the direction where the opponent 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 Mai Yi.

  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 aisle is shorter than expected. After rounding 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 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, sharp claws appeared on both hands, ready to attack.

  From the surrounding environment, she could already imagine that it was this traitor who continuously produced chamaejasma from here every day, and was then used by werewolves on blood clansmen, causing a large number of clansman casualties.

   And such a person is no longer worthy of being a blood clan. The rule of 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 as 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 looked up 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 great that you are the one chasing after me... It seems that he has saved me some favors..."

  In the sound of a wry smile, the man in black robe opposite him 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 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, deep in her heart, there was a louder and louder voice reminding her that Jonas was the ghost, because she had actually discovered the clue long ago, but she had been subconsciously turning a blind eye to it.

  For example, my uncle 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 herbs to subsidize the family...

   Another example is the smell of herbs when she came in just now. The reason why she feels familiar is because the house always has a similar smell...

  Thinking about the meaning of these herbs, it originally represented warmth and peace of mind to her, but now it 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 do you want to betray the ethnic group and become a werewolf's lackey?" Mai asked angrily.

  At the same time, there is another thing that makes her feel confused: the action of asking her to catch the ghost today was arranged by her brother, that is to say, her brother already knew that the ghost is an uncle? Then why let her come?

  In fact, Mu You did have doubts about Jonas before, because some time ago, he was frantically ambushed by werewolves, and at that time, there were not many people who could know where he was at any time.

  In the beginning, Mu You even suspected that Mai Yi was an insider, but later confirmed that it was not, so the scope of the insider was further narrowed.

   As for the real confirmation that Jonas is the ghost, it was this morning.

  As a potion master, Mu You knew very well that Nei Gui was a master at making poisons, and in the process of 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 herbs represented by the smell on Jonas' body coincided with these ingredients.

   So far, the identity of the inner ghost has been completely confirmed.

"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 skill, so I can only find ways to create other ways to get blood..."

   "So you cooperated with the werewolves to force the group to distribute a bottle of blood drops for detoxification by creating wolf poison targeting the group?" 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 Yi 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 Yi said sadly: "Just for the rise of our family, 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 obviously returned. He relied on his own means to easily obtain three drops of the ancestor's blood! Our family has been revived and become stronger than before. Why do you 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 that's 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 to be indirectly slaves to others."

   "So I am no longer your family 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 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 me At that time, the Rhine family will bear the name of a traitor, be judged by the ethnic group, and be nailed to the pillar of shame of the blood clan forever, so, the only way is... ahem!"

  Jonas suddenly coughed violently, black blood mixed with internal organs, vomited all over the floor, and his whole body instantly became sluggish, leaning against the wall and fell to the ground with difficulty, gasping for breath.

"uncle!"

  Mai was startled, and 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: "You hold on, I'll go find my brother to save you..." As he said that, he turned around and left.

   "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 stretched out his right paw, and 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 living 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 the blood of the vampires injected into my body... Injecting this injection into my heart can immediately inactivate the blood in all werewolves, and at the same time transform it into a toxin that restrains werewolves... Although it cannot be directly killed 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..."

   "I, I can't do it..." Mai Yi shook her head with tears in her eyes.

"This matter must be done by you...Only if you 'destroy relatives righteously' with your own hands, the Duke will have a reason to let the Rhine family go. You will become a hero who saves the people, and the heroic family will not be embarrassed..." Jonas smiled 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 who have wolf's poison Clan..."

  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 seemed that it was about to lose its activity.

   "Mai, don't let my hard work go to waste..." Jonas urged, getting weaker and weaker, his remaining life was connected to his heart, and when the heart stopped, it was also when he died completely.

  Mai wiped away tears, held the injection with both hands, and tremblingly moved it over 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 were speeding up their march and rushing in one direction.

   "No, wait..." At a certain moment, the voice of the werewolf boy suddenly sounded in the quiet line.

  The tyrant headed stopped, looked back at the boy: "What?"

  As soon as he stopped, the pack of wolves behind him also stopped their journey immediately, and all looked at the boy.

  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?"

   "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 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 instantly shattered into powder.

  The tyrant didn't care about it at all, but scanned 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.
