This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 680

Sethiya's sudden questioning shocked the dozen or so savage elders in the audience. They subconsciously turned their heads to look at the others around them, their eyes unable to conceal their vigilance.

 At the same time, more suspicious eyes were cast on the savage elders who were confronting Sesia.

"Youman, you really need to explain this matter." The patriarch also looked at the other party and frowned.

 Yoman is exactly the name of this savage elder.

Youman is a subordinate he personally promoted. The two have worked together for many years. The patriarch knows this subordinate's character quite well. However, Youman's actions this time are indeed a bit extreme compared with his usual style.

 This also inevitably caused him to have some doubts.

"Clan leader, I saw this kid sneaking towards Yue Lake. Although he didn't succeed, I'm sure this guy must have some kind of intention towards Yue Lake!" Youman explained hurriedly.

 “That's no need…”

The patriarch wanted to say that even so, there was no need to be so drastic and just kill him, but he was interrupted by Youman.

"Chief, have you forgotten? What happened to the God Clan back then... I also wanted to prevent the recurrence of what happened back then, so I took the cruelest action..."

Youman's meaningful reminder immediately made the savage leader's expression change.

 He naturally knows what "things of the past" refer to.

Back then, the protoss who claimed to be a mechanic broke into the tribe of the ancestors regardless of the armistice treaty between the two tribes. He lived among the tribe for a long time, and finally jumped into their holy land, Moon Lake, in full view of everyone!

 This incident caused an uproar among the clan at that time.

Because so far, the creatures that have entered the Moon Lake have always been native creatures of the Jie Forest. These native creatures were originally conceived by moon butterflies, nourished by the Jie Forest, and finally jumped into the Moon Lake, which is equivalent to falling off their leaves early and returning to their roots, returning to their mother's body. Naturally, there is nothing wrong with it. inappropriate.

 But what about outside creatures entering Moon Lake? No one is sure what the consequences will be, whether it will offend Yuehu, or whether it will have any irreversible impact on Yuehu.

Whether it is emotionally or rationally, being jumped into the Moon Lake by an outside creature is unacceptable to the tribe.

The reason why this happened back then was because the clan leader at that time was soft-hearted and did not drive away the **** clan immediately. Instead, he allowed him to live in the clan, which ultimately led to this disaster.

 So after that incident, the then clan leader was forced to resign amidst a lot of scolding. It was not until a new clan leader was replaced, and no obvious changes occurred in Yuehu, that the incident gradually calmed down.

Now, another outsider has come to the clan, and he is also wearing similar attire as the mechanic back then, and he also has some intentions towards Yuehu.

All this is so similar to back then...

“Clan leader, if he is not from my clan, his mind must be different!” Youman finally added as if to confuse him.

The patriarch's eyes flashed with light, as if he had been enlightened, and his originally hesitant expression suddenly turned firm.

"You are right. After all, we are an outsider. The Moon Festival is coming soon, so it would be best to eliminate these potential dangers in advance." The patriarch said in an indifferent tone, finalizing the matter.

"you!"

Sethia heard the two men change the nature of the matter in a few words. She was furious and looked at the patriarch: "Can such obvious words of deception convince you? You are really stupid!"

 “You are so impudent, Sethia, please pay attention to your identity. Who allowed you to talk to the patriarch like this?” Youman stood up and reprimanded angrily.

"What do I say? It's not your turn as a suspect to point out." Sethia sneered.

She has been the chief herbalist of the tribe since she became the clan leader. She is a veteran of three dynasties. In terms of seniority, the current clan leaders can only be considered her juniors, so she has the confidence to speak like this.

 “Suspect?” Youman narrowed his eyes: “Sesia, are you accusing me of being a parasite?”

"Yes, that's what I mean!" Sethia sneered, looked at the patriarch and said: "Patriarch, I suggest launching an internal review of Youman to thoroughly investigate his problems!"

Faced with Sethia's questioning in person, Youman did not panic at all. Instead, he smiled lightly and said: "Okay, okay, I am a parasite. What about the other people here? They did not accuse me with you. In your opinion, do they also A parasite?"

"This..." Sethia frowned. She was indeed suspicious of other people, but now she just wanted to point the finger at Youman first, and find out this person's problem first, and then talk about other people's matters.

At this time, the other party's words were obviously isolated and wanted to push her to oppose everyone. Sethia instinctively wanted to refute, but was interrupted first.

"I am a 'parasite', but everything I do is for the safety of the ethnic group. But you, the so-called elder of the three dynasties, are trying your best to speak for an outsider. For this reason, you even do not hesitate to slander your compatriots and sow discord. You know that it will cause discord among the ethnic group." What are the consequences of a crisis of confidence?”

Youman had a sneer on his face, as if he suddenly remembered something, and said meaningfully: "Speaking of which, it seems that the mechanic back then was taken in by your family. Now there are outsiders here, and they happened to be brought by your family." Yes, tsk tsk, history has never been similar...it's really hard to say who is the parasite..."

"you!"

Sethia was choked to the point of being unable to speak. Her face turned red and she clutched her chest. Her chest was heaving violently and she was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

She never expected that the other party could actually throw the parasite's dirty water back at her, even insulting her family.

But Sethia had no way to refute, because it was a fact that they took in the mechanic back then. After the lake jumping incident that year, their family also suffered from the eyes of the tribe. Later, with the erosion of time, the tribe gradually let go of this matter. But she didn't want to be brought up again at this time, and it happened to be combined with the current situation. This angle was really tricky and caught her off guard...

 “Okay, stop talking!”

Seeing that the situation was starting to get out of control, the patriarch made an unhappy voice and stopped the two from continuing to quarrel.

Looking at the people in the audience, everyone's faces showed fear, grievance, suspicion, and vigilance. It was obvious that the quarrel between the two had had a big impact on everyone, and an atmosphere of mutual suspicion had spread in the audience. Come.

The clan leader coughed and said seriously: "I believe that none of you here are parasites. You are all important backbones of the clan. You shine in the clan every day. I can see this. This kind of If it will arouse suspicion, don't say anything nonsense in the future. We just have different positions. The original intention of everything we do is for the safety of the ethnic group, so there is no need to quarrel."

After saying that, the clan leader turned to Sethia and softened his tone: "The teachings of the late king, as long as our clan does not actively participate in the battles in the outside world and defend the Ring Forest, it will last forever. Over the years, we have been following this As a result, the ethnic group has always been stable, and the population is also growing year by year, which shows that the late king's admonition is correct!”

"Even if you don't believe me, you should still believe the late king, right?" The patriarch finally asked the question.

Sethiya closed her eyes and sighed in her heart: Here we go again...

She knew the character of the patriarch. As a die-hard fan of the late king, she knew all the late king's sayings by heart, and she had always practiced the late king's teachings after taking office.

She has heard this sentence from the clan leader countless times before. Whenever she encounters something difficult to make, the clan leader will make a decision based on the teachings of the late king, and then use this sentence to block others' mouths.

Of course, the late king's admonitions have indeed withstood the test of time, and have never been wrong over the years. If it were other circumstances, she would not question this sentence, but this time, she is not sure...

"It's getting late, Sethia, please go back first. As for your son's matter...it's the Moon Festival ceremony now, and I really can't spare the manpower. I promise you that as soon as the ceremony is over, I will arrange manpower to bring Muro back." ." said the patriarch.

Sethiya said nothing more, just nodded, then stood up and left calmly. She has understood that with the current situation, even if she stayed, it would be impossible to argue for any outcome.

　　After watching Sethia leave, the patriarch let out a breath, leaned back in the chair and rubbed his brows.

 Everyone in the hall looked at each other and dispersed, leaving only Youman.

 A moment later, another savage suddenly ran into the hall and reported a piece of news.

“Clan leader, I just received news that Sirius escaped from prison and killed a jailer who was guarding him!”

"What?" The patriarch stood up suddenly, the veins on his forehead jumped several times, and he was a little surprised.

 “Are you sure? Did you see him kill someone with your own eyes?”

"No, we have searched the area and have not found the body of the missing jailer so far. However, arrows and blood stains were found at the location where the jailer disappeared. Judging from the situation at the scene, the arrow was shot from an extremely far away place. One arrow sealed it. Throat, only Sirius has this kind of strength." The visitor said.

 “This kid, what are you doing again?” The patriarch frowned. He felt that there seemed to be a lot of worries today, one after another...

"Clan leader, do you want to issue a fatwa? Breaking out of prison and assassinating innocent members of the clan, according to clan rules, this should be a capital crime!" Youman suddenly stepped forward and whispered.

"Well, it's not necessary...the matter is not clear yet..." The village chief immediately shook his head. In his opinion, Sirius was not the kind of person who would kill innocent people indiscriminately. Besides, no body was found, so he could not be sure that the person was dead. Maybe Sirius just captured the person alive or knocked him unconscious. In short, the identity of Sirius He is special and has great influence in the clan. Before the cause of the matter is understood, he must not be sentenced to death casually.

Youman's eyes turned and he continued to persuade: "But the other party has not escaped from prison long ago, but he did something before the moon festival. Could it be to destroy the moon festival? If he is not caught in time, what if he interferes? What about the moon festival?”

The clan leader frowned when he heard this, but still shook his head after a few seconds: "Don't worry, although this guy has a radical temper and occasionally gets into trouble, he is absolutely loyal to the clan. I can vouch for this."

He and Sirius knew each other and were very familiar with each other, so he understood each other's character very well. With Sirius's strength, he could escape from prison at any time, but he was willing to be imprisoned in a tree prison for thousands of years without complaining. This alone is enough to show his loyalty to the tribe.

"Don't worry about him. At present, everything is focused on the moon festival ceremony. After the moon festival is over, it won't be too late to settle the score with him." The clan leader said.

He estimated that this kid had gone outside again to look for clues about the Huangwu incident. He knew that Tianlang had been thinking about this matter for thousands of years and still hasn't let it go.

Seeing the clan leader defending Sirius repeatedly, Youman's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, but he quickly hid it. He thought about it and said, "Then at least arrange more people to patrol the seventh floor to prevent any accidents!"

"Well, that's fine. Just be careful... Then send more people to surround me on the seventh floor. I won't let any unknown person approach Moon Lake in the near future." The clan leader nodded and said seriously.

　　After watching Youman and the other person leave, the patriarch stood in the empty hall.

 After the affairs were handed over, his brows were still furrowed.

I don't know why, but he has been feeling a little flustered from time to time recently, and the closer he gets to the Moon Festival, the more obvious this feeling of panic becomes. This makes him always feel that something big will happen during this year's Moon Festival.

 Jie Lin, the edge of the seventh level.

Mu You and Tian Lang, who painted their entire bodies in gray-white, carefully hid among the trees and looked at the densely packed patrols below, feeling a little numb.

 “It seems that your clan leader is quite deceived...” Mu Youyou.

 Sirius looked a little embarrassed.

When he first came to the seventh floor, he hoped that the clan leader would be keenly aware of something wrong through his actions and deliberately reduce the number of sentries around him to give him a chance to meet.

 It's a pity that he seemed to have overestimated the clan leader's IQ.

Instead of reducing sentries, the clan leader greatly increased the number of patrols. At this moment, almost all the tens of thousands of on-duty sentries on the sixth floor were mobilized here, surrounding the seventh floor with water tight, with one post every five steps and one sentry every ten steps. It was Sirius, and looking at this situation he could only feel helpless.

Sirius was having a headache when he suddenly felt something. He narrowed his eyes and raised his long bow somewhere behind.

 “Wait a minute…” Mu You stretched out his hand in time to stop Tianlang's movements.

 Sirius didn't shoot the arrow because he had noticed that the aura that appeared behind him was not malicious.

Beside him, Mu You waved, and a mechanical helmet suddenly appeared in mid-air and floated towards Mu You.

“How is it? What have you found?” Mu You asked.

He knew that nothing happened to Ava. Relying on the induction of the mechanical heart, as soon as he came to the seventh floor, Ava would be able to sense his location and take the initiative to find him.

 Next, Ava told the two of her experiences.

After the previous battle armor was destroyed, it was not destroyed. Instead, it became invisible in time and fled the scene. Only then was it not discovered by the enemy. Then, relying on the chameleon's stealth characteristics, it tracked the savage who self-destructed, and also investigated A group of other parasites emerged.

"...According to current intelligence, among the permanent personnel on the seventh floor, there are at least ten people who have been confirmed to be parasites, all of whom are in high positions, and three of them are elders!" Ava said.

"Can you clearly distinguish the faces of these ten people?" Sirius asked hurriedly, while secretly clenching the bow in his hand. If he could directly identify the parasites, he could assassinate them remotely with one arrow. One less enemy is one.

"Yes...but I don't recommend taking action now. There are far more parasites than these ten people. According to the proportion, there are more than 400 parasites in the entire seventh floor, not to mention the large number of new soldiers who have poured in today. Among them The proportion of parasites will only be higher." Ava keenly felt the murderous intention of Sirius, guessed his thoughts, and hurriedly dissuaded him.

"well…"

Sirius sighed and loosened the bowstring. Little did he know that even if he secretly assassinated these people, it would actually be of no avail. There were still thousands of hidden parasites. Doing so would only alert the snake and make it difficult to find the parasites later. More difficult.

 However, in this almost dead situation, he really couldn't think of a better way.

During Ava's narration just now, Mu You next to her remained silent. Instead, she lowered her head and meditated on something. From time to time, she glanced in the direction of Yue Lake in the distance, her brows furrowed.

 After a moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Sirius with a serious expression: "I have a very important request, and I need you to help me complete it."

 “Oh? What?” Sirius was startled and asked casually.

 “I want to jump into the Moon Lake!”

 “What?” Sirius' voice instantly raised an octave. (End of chapter)
