This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 609

Chapter 609: Fanning the flames

Mu You and Lu Yao are old acquaintances. They have worked together many times before and have a high degree of trust in each other. They don't have so many scruples when talking about business. They settled after a brief discussion.

Muyou entrusted Lu Yao with full authority to sell the goods. After the goods were sold, Lu Yao received a 10% commission for each item.

At noon that day, Lu Yao rushed to the pet store and packed the prepared goods into boxes and took them away.

An hour later, the first batch of products was already on display in the Fire Bearer's shop.

Mu You doesn't need to take care of the rest. He can just act as the shopkeeper and wait for the money to be collected.

At this time in the pet shop, as all the useless props were taken away, all that was left on the ground were materials.

Mu You selected among the materials, picked out several 5-star materials, and sent them into the game.

【You put 1 blood-sucking poison velvet and 5 black chicken bones into the synthesis furnace. 】

　　【The material compatibility is 11.2%. The material grade is too low. There is a high probability of failure. Even if it succeeds, it is difficult to achieve effective improvement. Do you want to continue the synthesis? 】

“Is the 5-star material really not good enough?” Mu You sighed.

He had guessed before that the current Poison Velvet Knife was already a 6-star item and could no longer be synthesized with 5-star materials. This was now confirmed.

Of course, he can first combine 5-star materials into 6-star materials, and then continue to improve, but every six parts of the same material can be combined into one higher-level material. The more than a thousand parts of materials in front of him will instantly shrink to 200 parts. Really It's a bit wasteful, it's better to synthesize it directly with 6-star materials.

Mu You selected among the six-star materials again. There are 245 six-star materials. There are not many types. It only contains five kinds of exotic beast materials. There are 4 to 60 copies of each. If you are lucky, it should be enough to advance twice. .

Mu You looked at the effects of the five materials in turn, pondered for a moment, and quickly selected two of them.

　　【Moonlight Mantis Knife: A material produced by the 6-star creature 'Moonlight Mantis'. The Moonlight Mantis is a nocturnal carnivorous beast that lives in the forest. It is small in size, extremely fast, and has long-range attack capabilities. After waving its mantis sword, it can slash a white crescent-shaped blade forward, hence its name. Moonlight Mantis…]

【Flying Owl's Beak: A material produced by the 6-star creature 'Flying Owl'. The flying owl is a vicious bird that specializes in eating crustaceans. Its beak is extremely sharp and can easily penetrate the hard shells and armor of those crustacean creatures, thereby ingesting the delicate flesh and blood hidden in the shell...]

The other three materials are actually weapons-specific materials, and Mu You chose these two because of their inherent abilities.

Although Mu You cannot see the result of the synthesis in advance through backtracking, based on the experience of the first two synthesis, the final synthesis effect is obviously related to the characteristics of the alien beast to which the material belongs.

For example, by investing in spider web glands, the ability to create spider webs is finally synthesized, while the blood-sucking tail needle is synthesized with the ability to **** blood.

As expected, these two materials should also combine to produce the abilities of 'Moonlight Mantis' and 'Flying Owl'.

Muyou sent all two materials into the game and started trying.

【You will put the blood-sucking poison velvet and moonlight mantis knife*5 into the synthesis furnace. 】

【The material has a compatibility of 72% and has a low probability of failure. Do you want to confirm the synthesis? 】

"yes!"

　　【Synthesis successful! Your blood-sucking poison velvet has been slightly upgraded...]

　　【Synthesis successful! Your blood-sucking poison velvet has received a major upgrade! 】

【Moon Velvet (6.5 stars): Divine Power +13, Divine Defense +3, Agility +25, Intelligence +20.

Moon Velvet can cut out a crescent-shaped sword with a maximum flying distance of 30 meters. After hitting, it absorbs 15% of the real life of the damage caused and reduces the target's divine defense by 1 point for 15 seconds.

Hit five times in a row, forming a layer of sticky spider web on the target's body. 】

“Sure enough!”

Mu You was overjoyed when he saw the result. As expected, the effect of Moonlight Slash was combined. In this way, the Moon Velvet Knife has long-range attack capabilities. Although it is only 30 meters, it is a qualitative change for this weapon!

Because the three effects of this knife: defense reduction, blood-sucking, and slowing down, all require holding the knife and hitting the target to take effect.

However, in actual combat, it is almost impossible to hit the opponent repeatedly at close range, because the opponent will avoid and run away, and it is easy to be kited to death if he is not fast enough.

But with long-range attacks, it's different. You can chase and slash with a knife. As long as the distance is not more than 30 meters, you can hit again and again, which greatly enhances the deterrence of this weapon!

The first material was successfully completed. Mu You struck while the iron was hot and started the second round of synthesis.

　　【You put Moon Velvet and Flying Owl Beak*5 into the synthesis furnace. 】

【The material has a compatibility of 43%, which is low and has a high probability of failure. Do you want to confirm the synthesis? 】

"yes!"

【Synthesis failed, you lost the owl beak*5...】

【Failed to synthesize...】

The success rate of the second material is much lower than imagined.

After failing seven or eight times in a row, Mu You looked at the rapidly dwindling stock of beaks at hand and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Wouldn't this amount of materials be enough for promotion...

If the material cannot be upgraded after running out, the improvement of the Moon Velvet Knife will be stuck on this material, and Mu You can only continue to search for the owl's beak until the upgrade is completed.

Otherwise, if you skip this material and continue to synthesize it directly, then the 6.5-star upgrade will be in vain, because after the weapon reaches 7-star, you can no longer go back and synthesize it with 6-star materials.

Fortunately, I had pretty good luck today. Just when the bird's beak was about to run out of ammunition, a success prompt finally popped up, and it was a significant improvement for the first time!

【…synthesis successful! Your velvet has received a major upgrade! 】

　　【Yue Velvet (7 stars): Divine Power +15, Divine Defense +3, Strength +20, Agility +25, Intelligence +20.

Hit five times in a row, forming a layer of sticky spider web on the target's body.

Moon Velvet's attacks will cause additional damage to armor, carapace, shield and other armor or shells, destroying 30 points of armor durability per hit (the armor will shatter after its durability is cleared)】

"not bad."

Mu You nodded after reading this. The upgrade of the bird's beak is equivalent to adding an 'armour-breaking' ability to the sword.

Many creatures in the real world have shells, especially some turtle creatures that are famous for their abnormal defense. Divine spells and attacks hit their turtle shells, and the damage is zero, and they are all invalid attacks.

As for humanoid creatures, such as the gods, there are also many giants who are accustomed to wearing armor and carrying shields. When encountering attacks, they use shields and armor to block attacks, and they can also be greatly exempted from damage.

Human beings have not encountered this kind of giant yet, but it will be a matter of time before they do. If there is no armor-breaking means, it will definitely be very uncomfortable. There is no harm in preparing armor-breaking weapons in advance now.

The synthesis is over. The results of both synthesis are pretty good, and Mu You is very satisfied.

The current Moon Velvet Knife is already 7 stars. If you want to continue to improve it, you need 7-star materials. However, there are only a dozen 7-star materials on hand, and they are all in bulk. It is impossible to get 5 of the same ones together, so you can only stop now. “7.5 stars, 8 stars, 8.5 stars, 9 stars…”

Mu You thought about it and found that, as expected, there were only four opportunities for the Moon Velvet Knife to be upgraded. If he wanted to create a weapon that could be used for a long time, he had to think clearly about each subsequent upgrade before taking action.

Mu You collected the remaining materials and returned to the game.

At this time, the entire arakkoa tribe was still suffering from the 'sequelae of theft'. Almost no one dared to set up stalls on the streets. The streets were full of patrolling arakkoa guards. Mu You tried to turn around a few times, but no matter where he went, people were staring at him. With.

Finding that he couldn't do anything, Mu You simply prepared to leave the tribe and go to the forest to continue killing monsters.

But just as he was about to leave, a prompt popped up in the game.

　　　【You suddenly heard the sound of the hoofbeats of birds in the mountains. 】

　　【You transformed into the form of a sparrow man and quickly understood its meaning: "Boss, the leader of the Crow people is here, come back quickly!"]

“Clan Chief of the Crow People…” Mu You raised his eyebrows, but he wasn't too surprised. In the past three days, he single-handedly stirred up the entire tribe into chaos. The order of the entire tribe was about to collapse. It would be strange if the leader of the Crow People did not respond again.

At this time, the leader of the Crow people came to the door, obviously looking for the bandits to attack.

Perhaps, this is a good opportunity to incite confrontation between the two families!

　　【You transformed into the image of the leader of the bandits in a remote place and rushed back to the gathering place of the bandits. 】

[...You have entered the underground 'House of Bandits'. At this moment, many bandits have gathered in the huge room. Deep in the room, the leader of the Crow Tribe is standing by the wall holding a cane. He has obviously been waiting for a long time. . 】

[Hearing you enter the house, the Crow Chief turned around tremblingly, tapped his cane, and looked at you displeased: "What's going on with the recent theft? No matter how ignorant you gangsters are, you should be Is there a limit?"]

"What do you mean we are ignorant? This is not what we did!" Before you could say anything, a gangster kid next to you could not help but argue first. 】

"That's right, we have been living in seclusion in the past few days and have not gone out to hunt at all." "That's right..." All the bandits agreed. 】

“If it's not you, then who is it?” the patriarch asked with a frown. 】

　　　"Of course they are bandits from out of town!" you said. 】

["Ma bandits from other places? Are you kidding me?" The Crow tribe leader sneered upon hearing this: "To me, there is no distinction between local and foreign ma bandits. This is your own internal problem. In short, as long as It was the bandits who made a mistake in my tribe, and you have to be responsible for dealing with it, and at the same time, you are also responsible for us to compensate for all losses!"]

"Why?" "Why should we pay compensation?" "They are not our people at all. We don't even know who is coming..." The bandits were all talking. 】

["I said, how to deal with it is your business. I will give you a week to handle your internal affairs and restore stability to the Crow Tribe. Otherwise, the cooperation agreement we signed may have to be re-evaluated. After considering it..." The Crow leader finally looked at you and spoke with an obvious threatening tone. 】

"What?!" When all the bandits heard this, they were immediately furious. They looked at each other, but they all understood in their hearts. 】

　　【Many bandits were still doubtful about your guess before, but now the words of the leader of the Crow people seem to have completely confirmed your guess: the Crow people have indeed planned to drive you away! 】

　　【Many bandits were furious and wanted to beat the leader of the Crow people to the ground on the spot. Fortunately, your eyes stopped them in time, and they did not have an attack. 】

　　　　　　　　After finishing speaking, the leader of the Crow People slowly left, waving his cane. 】

　　【While passing by the door, a bandit next to him felt dissatisfied, quietly moved his right hand, and launched a theft against the Crow tribe leader...】

　　【Unfortunately, the theft failed. The leader of the Crow people turned his head sharply and glared at the bandit. The gangster was caught on the spot, his face turned pale, and he lowered his head in shame. 】

The leader of the Crow People did not pursue the matter further, and just snorted coldly: "Let your people keep their hands and feet clean! They are getting more and more unruly..." After that, he cursed and left the room. 】

Mu You frowned when he saw it. The leader of the Yao people was just an ordinary 6-star Yao people. He was not very strong, and because of his inconvenient legs and feet, theft should not be difficult. However, these bandits under him had been stealing all the year round, and each of them had already mastered theft skills. You're so mature, you shouldn't have made such an obvious mistake...

Thinking of this, Mu You also tried controlling the characters.

　　【You used the invisible hand to remotely launch a theft against the arakkoa leader...】

【Theft failed, the target seems to be guarded by special props, your invisible hand will automatically dissipate when approaching the opponent, and theft cannot be carried out...】

“Huh?” Mu You was stunned.

Special props for protection?

It would be fine if the theft rate was extremely low or something like that, but he really didn't expect that the text would directly remind him that 'no theft is possible'.

So, is there really a tool that can absolutely prevent theft?

No wonder this old man was so confident when entering the gangster's den. He was prepared for it...

When he came back to his senses, Mu You was a little interested in the props on the crow tribe leader.

This kind of unknown prop is equivalent to building a firewall. He cannot penetrate the firewall and steal the divinity within the wall.

However, if the 'firewall' itself is stolen, it should be possible to steal it normally, right?

Muyou was thinking secretly.

Of course, this will only be possible after he integrates the authority of the God of Thieves.

　　　【It wasn't until the Crow Patriarch walked away that the hall became noisy again. 】

“Boss, you are really right, these arakkoa really intend to drive us away!”]

【"It seems that he has already colluded with the gangsters from other places..."】

　　　"Fortunately, the boss saw it through in advance, otherwise we would still have been kept in the dark..."]

【“Damn, these arakkoa people bully people too much...”】

【"We really think we are easy to bully..."】

　　　【The bandits are all talking, each filled with righteous indignation, and finally they all look at you, waiting for you to make up your mind. 】

"Boss, what should we do? Do you want to help them catch the foreign bandits?" one person asked. 】

["What's the use? If you catch one, there will be a steady stream of outsiders popping up later. Can you catch them all? What's more, there might be troublemakers. If the crow people want to drive us away, they can. Act like a thief, and frame it directly for us." You said. 】

　　【The crowd of crows scratched their heads in distress after hearing this, and had no idea for a moment. 】

"Boss, why don't we just leave? If we don't stay here, we have a place to stay. We bandits are so capable that we can't get enough of it, so why do we have to stay in this ghost place and suffer?" One person suggested. 】

"Of course we have to leave, but we can never leave without saying a word. It's too cowardly." You said angrily. 】

"Boss, what do you mean..." Some gangsters were already vaguely aware of your plan, and they suddenly became excited. 】

"Before we leave, why don't we steal a handful of it and steal all the stolen property from the entire arakkoa tribe, leaving no one behind!" you suggested. 】

The reason why he proposed this is because it is difficult for Mu You to move in the village now. The crow people are currently patrolling frantically and vigilantly, and are particularly wary of all strange faces. It is difficult for him to find an opportunity to attack by himself.

So his plan is to incite the bandits to act together. These bandits are much more familiar with the Ya tribe than he is. If more than 80 bandits act together, they can definitely loot the entire tribe's superficial property.

Looking back, he will find someone to catch all the bandits, and this part of the divinity will still fall back into their hands.
