This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 405

  Chapter 405 I, Mu You, voted for this project!

   Judging from the comic strips drawn by Maiden, the cat people live in swampy areas, and there is usually no shortage of food, but for clean cats, the environment in places like swamps really makes their lives a bit painful.

  Then there is the problem of nocturnal nature. The cat people also considered moving to the Undercity before, but unfortunately they were rejected by the dark elves because the dark queen Fred was allergic to cats...

But now the birth of Eternal Night City is a better substitute for the cat people than the Undercity: the Eternal Night City that flies in the sky not only maintains the characteristics of Eternal Night, but also does not need to stay in the closed dark city for a long time. Underground, there is fresh air at any time, and you can go out of the city to surf at any time when you want to enjoy the sunshine. It is really an excellent gathering place for cat people!

  Actually, Virgo personally came to the Star Spirit Realm to help fight for Eternal Night City this time, and also meant to investigate the environment of Eternal Night City for the ethnic group.

  The result made her very satisfied, especially seeing the treatment after the blood race moved up, it made her firmer in her idea of ​​helping the ethnic group move here.

"welcome."

   Mu You readily agreed to Virgo's request.

  The cat people are not like werewolves, they have conflicts with vampires, and they will fight every day when they stay together.

   As far as the cat people are concerned, there are no bad rumors at present. This is a very low-key race with a total population of only about 700 people. For Sky City, which can accommodate hundreds of millions of people, their joining will not even cause a splash.

   "Thank you." Virgo held up the cardboard, and under the text was a 'relaxed' emoji.

   Immediately, Virgo left a teleportation formation in the city, took her leave and left, probably teleporting back to the swamp to inform her clansmen of the good news.

   "Xiaoya, are you full?" Mu You went to find Xiaoya, planning to ask her to leave some space for the cat-human race.

  Xiaoya is still at the desk in the center of the Castle, busy operating the Book of the Lord.

"No…"

   "How much worse?"

   "It's still... 1.24 million..."

   "So much?" Mu You was taken aback.

  The newly born city only has a population limit of 10 million, and it has been six or seven hours since the birth of Eternal Night City, and it has only accepted more than 8 million people?

At the beginning of Dawn City, every time the income was basically full in seconds, even for the recently born Starlight and Dark Night City, it took at most ten minutes to collect all the people, but when it came to Eternal Night City, how could it be so fast? So much difference?

   "What income conditions did you set?" Mu You looked at her strangely.

   "There is no setting, everyone who signed up has agreed..." Xiaoya said aggrievedly, and showed the book of the city lord to Mu You.

   Mu You stepped forward and took a look.

  The result is really, the application interface is empty, as long as all the registrations are added, even so, only so few people are accepted. This can only show that the willingness of players to apply for Eternal Night City is very low.

   Mu You frowned and thought for a while, but soon understood.

  The biggest reason is the environmental problem of Eternal Night City.

  Eternal Night City's permanent black sky environment is a paradise for nocturnal races, but it is a big trouble for ordinary people.

Ordinary players do not have night vision means. In Eternal Night City, they need to give priority to keeping the light on at all times when doing anything. This will greatly increase the difficulty of mining and various actions, and the work efficiency will drop sharply. , of course no one wants to come.

Another important reason is that all twelve cities have been born now, and Liming City has even gone straight to the fifth-level city. You must know that when the fifth-level city is upgraded, the population limit will jump from fifty million to one. 100 million, an extra 50 million places will be added!

Rather than vying for the 10 million population ceiling in the special environment of Eternal Night City, it is better to wait for the gap of 50 million in Dawn City after a while. No matter from which point of view, Dawn City's advantages have completely exploded Evernight City.

   Not to mention, other sky cities are also stepping up their upgrades. It is conceivable that in the next period of time, the demand for new players in each city will increase significantly.

   To put it bluntly, the population of Sky City is no longer as scarce as it was before. With so many cities to choose from, players naturally began to pick and choose.

Nowadays, many players who have not yet joined Sky City are actually "waiting with tickets". After all, there are restrictions on joining and exiting Sky City. Benefits and new features.

  The combination of the two aspects has led to the current predicament of Eternal Night City: income is difficult.

Of course, the population of 10 million at level 0 can still be filled, but most of them are low-level players. As the city level increases, the upper limit of population increases, and the gap between Eternal Night City and other cities The gap will become more and more obvious.

   "Boss, what should I do about this?" Xiaoya looked carefully at Mu You and asked.

  She has also been the deputy city lord in Dawn City for a long time, so she naturally understands the importance of population to Sky City.

  Without a population, there will be a shortage of labor force, and the speed of urban development will be hindered, and if the development is slow, others will be less willing to come, thus forming a vicious circle...

   "Is this... There is no population, so let's create a population!" Mu You pondered for a moment, then suddenly said.

   "Huh? Create, create population..." Xiaoya blushed a little. In reality, she can still understand, but...in the game, can people be created?

   "To be precise, it is to create labor!" Mu You corrected, and he also realized that what he just said was somewhat ambiguous.

   "Labor force?" Xiaoya was puzzled.

   "Just like in our store, we didn't recruit people, so it didn't easily solve the problem of labor shortage." Mu You reminded.

   "Oh, a robot..." Xiaoya was stunned.

   Of course, she knows how useful the robots in the store are. The labor force of a robot is comparable to four or five employees, and they are simply a group of hardworking animals.

   If the situation in the store is enlarged to the entire Eternal Night City, it seems that the problem of labor shortage can really be solved...

   "But, where can I find so many robots?" Xiaoya quickly asked a new question.

  If this idea is to be realized, one of the biggest problems is the source of the robots. To support the labor of the entire sky city, the number of robots needed is really hard to count.

  Secondly, there is the issue of energy. Several robots at home consume magic crystals every month, but how much energy does a robot that can support an entire sky city consume every day?

   "That's easy to say."

  Mu You had quickly calculated everything in his mind.

  There is now a goblin alchemist in Dawn City, and there is also a goblin engineer who was captured before in his backpack.

  According to what the little goblin brags about every day, as long as it has enough materials and energy, it can build a goblin alchemy factory by itself, even it can do it, let alone the master alchemist.

   As for energy, he has no shortage.

   Mu You turned into a mecha skin, removed the ancient power furnace from his body, and took out the forest spirit core as an energy source from the furnace.

  【Contaminated forest heart, current pollution level: 99.8053%. 】

  Since the old goblin transformed the ancient power furnace into an 'energy conversion furnace', this core has been placed in his mecha skin, and all the energy that Mu You usually uses to fight with the mecha skin is absorbed from it.

   The most consuming thing was the last time he fought against Shadow God, he blasted the charged cannon almost non-stop for an hour and a half.

However, even under such rough use, after almost a month, the pollution degree of this core has only decreased by less than 0.01% compared to before. It can be seen how huge the energy contained in it is. Wang Yang is not an exaggeration to describe it.

The task that Sen Ling gave him before was to use up 10% of this core within a year. With his current consumption rate, it is obviously impossible to complete it, unless he does nothing else every day and drives it non-stop. The mecha skin can only be completed by shooting around.

   But this is too inefficient and too wasteful. How about using such a huge amount of energy to do something that benefits the country and the people?

  And now, a matter with a super high energy demand was placed in front of him.

  Thinking of this, Mu You put away the power furnace and core, changed back to the vampire skin, and teleported to Dawn City.

  In a tin hut next to the castle, Mu You found Tours Eugene, the "crazy alchemist" he brought back earlier.

  When Mu You entered, Eugene was sitting by the window in a daze.

  Hearing the knock on the door, it came back to its senses, stretched its shoulders, and walked listlessly to open the door.

"It's you?"

  Seeing Mu You at the door, Eugene was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly pulled his trouser legs and shouted: "You came just in time, let me go quickly, I have something to go back to the clan to see!"

In all fairness, Eugene was not abused by anyone while staying here. Muyou provided him with sufficient material conditions and did not restrict his personal freedom. He could go wherever he wanted in Dawn City. The only restriction was The enchantment of Dawn City was closed to it, so it couldn't get out of Dawn City, and even the death teleportation point was anchored on Dawn City.

  So strictly speaking, it is actually under house arrest here.

  When he first came here, there was a subject of energy conversion, and Eugene still had a sense of novelty, but after the energy conversion device was completed, Eugene had nothing to do every day, and this novelty quickly faded away.

  He was originally called a crazy alchemist. He could endure the risks and excitement of living every day, but he couldn't bear this kind of boring and dying every day.

   "I'm almost fading out here! You must let me go back today, as we agreed at the beginning!" Eugene held on to Muyou's trouser leg tightly and didn't let go.

   "Well, I'll be honest with you."

   Mu You had no choice but to shake his head, and confessed to it: "Actually... your house is gone!"

   "???" Eugene looked at Mu You in confusion.

"I'm serious, the goblins heard that the Fool was coming back for revenge, so they took the Clockwork City and ran away overnight." Mu You spread his hands and glanced at it: "Your status is not low among the goblins. I think you understand what I mean."

   Goblins once entrapped an ancestor of the Fool and took his wisdom as their own. Not to mention that everyone in the goblin tribe knows it, but some high-level goblins should know it.

   Sure enough, Eugene lost his mind for a moment when he heard the words, and subconsciously let go of Muyou's hand. After a while, it realized that it sat down on the ground with a plop: "It's over..."

   "What's the end?" Mu You asked.

"Goblins are an extremely cautious race by nature. They must have made all the preparations to escape in a clockwork city like this. They will hide in a place that no one knows, and they will not have any contact with the outside world for a long time. ...That is to say, we wandering goblins have all been abandoned..." Eugene held his head in pain.

  Although it is isolated by the goblins and ridiculed by many people, it is still a goblin at heart, and has deep feelings for the race and the Clockwork City.

  Now the ethnic group has chosen Shenyin for self-protection, and it, a wandering goblin, suddenly turned into a rootless duckweed, which made it extremely confused for a while.

   "However, even if this is the case, you have to let me go!" After being sad on the ground for a while, Eugene suddenly stood up again, and said seriously: "This is what you promised at the beginning!"

  When it came back with Mu You, it only agreed to help him make an energy converter. Now that the original promise has been completed, there is no reason to detain it.

   "Don't worry, if you want to leave, I won't stop you." Mu You said.

"That's good!"

  Yujin heard the words, immediately went back to the small iron house, dragged out a package bigger than itself, tied it behind his back, and was about to walk towards the exit of Dawn City.

   "However, are you sure you want to leave like this without doing anything?" Mu You looked at Eugene's back and suddenly said.

"Um?"

  Eugene frowned and turned around: "What is mediocrity?"

   "I have already made an energy converter for you and verified my idea. This is an epoch-making invention!" Eugene said proudly.

   "Your so-called epoch-making invention must rely on my energy core to work. Without the core I provide, your invention is still equivalent to waste."

   Mu You looked at it and said, "What's more, are you satisfied just by inventing such a thing?"

   "What do you mean?" Eugene frowned even deeper.

   "Don't you have some higher pursuit?" Mu You asked.

"Pursue?"

   "For example, build a clockwork city for those goblins who were abandoned by the race like you, etc..." Mu You said.

   "Build... another clockwork city?!"

  Yujin was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up, he hurriedly unwrapped his body, and ran back to Mu You. Expectantly asked: "How?"

   "You have seen my energy core, which contains almost unlimited energy. If I give it to you, do you have the ability to use it to restore a clockwork city?" Mu You looked at it with a smile.

   "Of course I can!" Eugene blurted out.

  Then hesitated for a while, and said again: "However, building a clockwork city requires not only energy, but also materials! Where are the materials?"

"Material?"

  Mu You looked at the city that couldn't be seen in the distance: "Aren't there everywhere in this sky city?"

  The materials that can be dug up by mining in Sky City include almost all types of alchemy materials.

   "You want me to build a clockwork city in Dawn City?" Eugene looked at Mu You in disbelief.

   Mu You shook his head: "The land in Liming City is all useful, there is not so much space for you, but you can go to another place."

"Where?"

   "Eternal Night City!"

   "Eternal night...you mean, the eternally dark city in the sky?" Eugene's eyes lit up.

  As one of the oldest alchemists among the goblins, he has of course heard of the city of Eternal Night.

   "Yes, that place should be more suitable for you?" Mu You laughed.

   "Take me to see it!" Eugene couldn't wait.

  Although goblins are not completely nocturnal creatures, they are naturally good at mining underground, and basically stay in the dark all year round from birth, so working in a dark environment is more in line with their habits and nature.

   Mu You didn't talk nonsense, and took it to Eternal Night City.

   "Where do I build the city?" After arriving here, Eugene looked at the sparsely populated Eternal Night City and hurriedly turned around to ask.

  Mu You directly took the map of Eternal Night City.

  Like other sky cities, the range of Eternal Night City is a circle.

   Mu You drew a quarter of a fan-shaped area on the map and waved his hand: "If you are sure to build a city, this area will be handed over to you!"

  Yujin looked at Mu You in shock, pointed to the map, and confirmed: "You mean, I can use all the minerals in this area at will?"

   "As long as you have the ability to dig it out, feel free to use it!" Mu You nodded.

   "Do you want me to use your energy core?" Eugene swallowed and asked again.

"certainly!"

   "Are you not afraid that I will run out of energy for you?" Eugene looked at him with a strange expression.

  Although the energy core is claimed to have infinite energy, it is not really infinite. If you want to build a whole clockwork city, even that thing will be exhausted sooner or later.

   Mu You laughed when he heard this, I was afraid that you might not use it fast enough!

   "How about, let's sign a gambling agreement!"

   "What agreement?" Eugene was taken aback.

   Mu You took out the pitch-black forest spirit core and squeezed it in his hand.

   "This core, if you can use up its energy within ten months, I will give you a new one!"

"What?"

Hearing this, Eugene came back to his senses after a while, looked at Mu You like a fool, pointed to the core, and then pointed to himself: "I used up this thing, and instead of scolding me for wasting it, you gave it to me A new one?"

   "Yes, but there is a premise." Mu You nodded.

   "What premise."

"You must use all the energy in this core for the construction of Eternal Night City and not waste it elsewhere!" Mu You emphasized: "If you can ensure the fastest upgrade of Eternal Night City, you can If the energy of this core is exhausted within ten months, I will abide by the agreement and give you a new one."

   "The question is, can you do it?" Mu You finally asked back.

"You underestimate me! You underestimate alchemy too!" Eugene immediately became upset when he heard this, sneered, and said proudly: "Don't say ten months, believe it or not, I only need half a year to be enough Use it cleanly, and make sure there will be no waste!"

   "Okay, then half a year!"

  Mu You immediately changed his words, and said with a smile: "Within half a year, use this core to build an alchemy factory in Eternal Night City, and produce enough robots for the construction of Eternal Night City, until the energy of the core is exhausted."

   "I voted for this project!"
