This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 729

 High sky, dusk city.

On the smoke-filled battlefield, artillery fire and shouts of death continued one after another, causing the whole city to faintly shake.

  Intensive magic missiles passed over the ruins of the wall, exploding at various places on a giant's body, raising clouds of smoke and dust, but only causing negligible damage to the giant.

The bombed giant roared angrily, carried the Fool's intensive fire bombardment, and charged towards the enemy with large strides. He waved his hand as big as a cattail leaf, and could easily crush a piece with each slap.

This giant who ventured deep into the enemy's position was quickly killed by countless fools.

 It is a pity that this scene not only failed to deter the enemy, but instead inspired the enemy.

The giant army at the rear was inspired by this warrior's feat. Tens of thousands of giants let out loud shouts, and then marched in neat steps, fearless and fearless at the same time as the battle line surged over.

 “Attack, attack quickly!”

 The human commanders in the rear hurriedly issued orders. Behind the defense line, millions of players looked at the approaching enemies and began to deal with them desperately.

 Under the bombardment of all kinds of magic and divine spells, giants fell one after another, setting off another round of killing spree in front of the defense line.

This is already the 26th round of charges that Twilight City has encountered.

 In the first 25 rounds, they relied on defense lines and numerical advantages to defend. However, this time, the giant's offensive was like a tide, coming in layers, and there was no end in sight no matter how hard they killed.

 Coupled with the continuous fierce battles, many players have almost reached their limits regardless of their character state or spirit.

They were ultimately unable to guard against this wave of giant attacks. As the first giant broke through the defense line, like a piece of cloth with a cut opening, the giant team behind them suddenly rushed in through the gap like sharp knives.

“The 107th defensive line has been lost, and a large number of enemies are approaching the center of the city.”

 Ava's voice rang in the emperor's ears.

 also sounded in the communication props in the ears of all the city lords at the same time.

This is a battlefield communication channel temporarily established by several of their city lords, because these city lords are all real people in high heaven at the moment, relying on the robes provided by Mu You to prevent parasitism.

Ordinary people can control the game characters in this important battle, but they cannot. As the souls of the Fool, the city lords must be here in person.

"Let the reserve troops fill the gap first, and then we will go to support..."

 While the emperor was secretly confronting a **** in the opposite formation, he gave orders to the communicator as usual.

 “There are no reserve troops left.”

The voice in the communicator startled several city lords. They devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the battle. Only then did they realize that the battle line had gradually shrunk to the inner city, and beyond that was the city center. Once the enemy occupied the city main castle, the city would also be destroyed. It's like being captured...

 They have no retreat.

The city lords could only remain silent. It was not their fault for not trying hard. The gap between the two sides was really too big. Up to this point in the battle, they had used all the tricks they could use, and there was nothing they could do now.

More importantly, the successive defeats have begun to shake the morale of the military...

 “How is the situation over there with Captain Ghost?” Tianzi asked Ava.

 “Still no news.”

“The 36th defense line has collapsed, and the 41st defense line is close to collapse and is in urgent need of support.” At this time, Ava broke two bad news in succession.

"According to the current situation, within ten minutes, the enemy will advance to the main castle, and the probability of completing the capture of Dusk City is 87.2%. Within 30 minutes, the capture probability will reach 100%..." Ava reported the facts without emotion. .

　　After hearing this, several city lords felt their hearts pounding.

It's over. Once the castle is breached, the giant army will invade the earth.

This time is different from last time. Last time, only six giants came, which almost caused mankind to stage an extinction crisis. This time, thousands of giants poured in together. Everyone can imagine that once they are lost, the entire world will be destroyed. What a scene of devastation it would be.

At this moment on Earth, countless people who are unable to participate in the war are nervously waiting for news.

The disadvantages of the war and our own side's steady retreat cannot be concealed. No matter how high-level officials try to whitewash it, gossips that various fronts are about to collapse begin to spread all over the sky.

  Panic quickly began to spread among humans.

Especially in the area directly below Twilight City, residents began to rush out of their homes and drove away frantically.

But where can I escape to? The entire earth is one. Once defeated, no one can escape. At most, it will be the difference between early death and late death.

 “What about the support from other cities?” someone in the channel couldn't help but ask.

"That's too late…"

 The emperor sighed, it was useless even if it came in time. What they really needed was the support of high-end forces. Ordinary support would be in vain, because the space was limited.

And high-end power cannot be transferred casually. The situation in other cities seems to be relatively stable now, but in fact it is not easy for everyone. They are struggling to maintain it, especially after continuous fierce battles, everyone has adapted to the battle rhythm of each city. Once the high-end power is randomly deployed at this time, the original balance will collapse faster.

 There was silence in the channel.

 Just when everyone is at their wits' end.

 A blue giant figure suddenly walked out from behind.

 “The Djinn!”

 Everyone looked at the djinn one after another.

Although the Djinn God is not a fool, he is the only **** here, and his status is the highest in this city.

After the war started, the Djinn God has been activating his divine power in the rear, burning the miracle fire all over the city. It seems that he has not participated in the battle, but in fact it is equivalent to giving all players one to two layers of death insurance, which greatly reduces the players' battle losses. , otherwise the defense line will collapse faster.

The Djinn God walked near the Emperor, looked at the outer battle line, and then at everyone, showing a confident smile: "Don't worry, boys, we won't lose."

"But, what are we going to do..." Everyone looked at each other. The words of the Djinn God were really unconvincing. No matter how they looked at it, they were already in a desperate situation.

“You won't lose because the light of miracle will bloom again.” The Djinn added.

Everyone was stunned.

"Deng Shen, do you want to..."

 Many people have understood the meaning of the Djinn God: he is ready to burn himself out and explode his divine power to give everyone a chance.

The Djinn God smiled easily. In fact, he had been very worried since the war started, fearing that the situation would really come to this point.

 But until now, when it was time to make a decision, the Djinn was relieved.

He has long been a dead man. Countless heroes of his own race died in battle in the City of Order, and he was the only one who escaped and survived. For so many years, that feeling of shame has been lingering in his heart, and he has been condemned by his conscience day and night.

Now, he finally has a chance to feel at ease. At this time, he only needs to be sacrificed to turn the tide and save countless people. For him, it is a satisfactory enough ending.

"Okay, I'm here to inform you, prepare to receive power." The Djinn God smiled freely: "Next, you nine-star divines will temporarily become gods, and the effect will last for about 10 About hours.”

Everyone was pleasantly surprised when they heard this. There were 15 divines on the scene. If all of them were temporarily promoted to gods, even the lowest and least knowledgeable gods would still be gods after all. There would be absolutely no problem in maintaining the defense line.

 “What about 10 hours later?” Someone couldn't help but ask.

As a result, as soon as I asked the question, I was glared at by others and hurriedly covered my mouth, knowing that I had asked an inappropriate question. Ten hours later, the temporarily borrowed power disappeared, everyone was knocked back to their original shape, and the djinn also burned himself. Naturally, they would only fail faster...

The Djinn God returned to the main castle at the rear, sat down in the center of a large formation, took the oil lamp next to him, and rubbed the lamp body with his eyes full of reluctance.

“Old man, I'm sorry, let's burn each other out here today.”

The magic carpet floated behind the djinn, looking at its owner reluctantly. A corner of the carpet stretched out and then retracted, trying to persuade but then stopping, because it also knew that there was no other way.

 The lantern **** took a deep breath, flames appeared from his fingers, and he slowly approached the miracle lamp.

 But at this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside.

The commotion gradually turned into cheers, and the cheers quickly became deafening.

"Huh?" The djinn, who was already in a good mood, was also attracted by this movement, paused his movements, and went out for a strange look.

 As soon as he left the house, a player hurried over, shouting as he ran: "Deng Shen, stop!"

“The city lord said that the enemy has retreated, so you don't need to sacrifice anymore!”

"What?"

 The genie was stunned. The enemy retreated?

He took off in a hurry and flew to a high place. The lamp oil attached to his eyes dispelled the fog, and he looked out.

Sure enough, all the battle lines around the city had stabilized at this moment. The God-Eating Beasts seemed to have learned some terrible news, and suddenly lost their will to fight and fled back.

The enemy not only retreated, but also fled en masse!

The Djinn God swallowed, and his heart was pounding. Could it be that...

 The smile at the corners of his mouth widened uncontrollably, as if there was no other possibility...

"what happened?"

 “Why did the enemy retreat?”

 “We...victorious?”

 “Really won?”

 “Could it be a trap…”

While the players were cheering and celebrating, all the commanders and senior officials were looking at each other.

They don't dare to relax like ordinary people. If this is some kind of plan, the purpose is to let them relax their vigilance and wait for the enemy to counterattack. They don't know how they died.

But immediately, battle reports from other cities also came in one after another.

It was not just Twilight City that withdrew its troops. The enemies of all the five besieged cities retreated crazily at the same time and disappeared far away from the battle line.

Everyone continued to wait anxiously.

 Half an hour passed before more clear news came from senior officials: the enemy had fled!

Captain Ghost successfully killed the enemy leader on another battlefield. It is said that the mother body of the God-Eating Beasts has died at this moment, and the God-Eating Beasts have no ability to reproduce and parasitize.

Parasitic beasts that have lost the ability to reproduce will be useless even if they invade the earth. Moreover, every time a person dies, the population will be reduced by one. Of course, there is no need to fight against humans anymore. Next, the god-eating beasts should protect the remaining ones as much as possible. population, withdrawal is inevitable.

　Until it is confirmed that they have truly won, these commanders can finally release themselves to their heart's content, laughing, hiding their faces in tears, or sitting in a daze, enjoying the joy of the rest of their lives.

TV stations from various countries broadcast the good news one after another, and the entire human race fell into a state of celebration. Whether it was the earth or several sky cities, it was a scene of singing and dancing.

Amid the deafening cheers from the outside world, the Djinn returned to the City of Order silently, squatted down in a corner not far from the statue, and looked at the statue of Order in front of him with a complicated expression.

“Lord, that boy really did it... We finally defeated the God-Eating Beast, you can rest in peace...”

The genie had tears in his eyes. He couldn't explain how he felt. How could he survive the disaster? The joy of defeating a powerful enemy? Or the frustration of failure to escape... There are various emotions, but in the end they all turn into a smile: no matter what, they won, they resolved the crisis, and secured a future for themselves...

In the pure white space, Mu You's eyes were blank, his figure was slightly tilted back, and he stood unconsciously on the spot, like an eternal stone sculpture, with no vision, no hearing, no touch, and no emotion. An empty shell of nothingness.

Until a certain moment, the sound of footsteps sounded, accompanied by a woman's choked sobs: "I'm sorry, I'm late..."

Mu You slowly opened his eyes, and the dim battlefield was still in front of him.

 The miniature God of Chaos stood in front of him, holding his throat with one hand but using no force.

Mu You broke away easily, but the God of Chaos in front of him still raised his right hand flatly. His whole body was as stiff as iron, and he was already a dead corpse.

 Yes, the God of Chaos is dead. During the too long time in the time cage, his spirit collapsed and died first.

Mu You moved his stiff body. Judging from the state of the corpse, they had been standing here for at least a day and a night.

The time cage is not a real space, but a fantasy scene, hidden deep in Muyou's memory. As long as the God of Chaos touches that memory, the switch will be triggered, and Muyou will be pulled into it and forced to follow him. Complete the entire 3 billion years of prison experience.

This is a kind of 'consciousness time travel', that is, the only memories and consciousness that actually travel back are his and the God-eating Beast, which possess the previous body and complete this blank experience.

 But for Mu You, because he had completed this process in the past, it felt like he had fallen asleep at the moment, and only some vague fragments of his memories in the cage of time remained.

 After coming back to his senses, Mu You stretched out his hand and put it on the corpse of the God of Chaos, condensing it into divine bones.

The five stones of time were also condensed along with the Chaos Divine Bones.

The energy supply of these five time stones was shut down. Not far ahead, the creation stone plate that was originally hidden one second in the future finally returned to the 'present'. It fell because it lost its support and was rushed over by Mu You in advance. , took it in his hand.

The moment he touched the creation stone plate, a magnificent scene suddenly flashed before Mu You's eyes. It was colorful, beautiful, and indescribable beauty. It seemed to be a highly prosperous civilization, and all the creations and architecture are challenging his imagination…

It's a pity that the bustling scene only passed by in a flash.

No matter how much Mu You went back in time, he could not recreate that scene. The stone plate lay quietly in his hand, without any abnormalities.

Mu You frowned. The scene just now might be where this thing came from.

He remembered the warning of the God of Order: keep improving his way of heaven, and on the day when he reaches the end, he will see everything clearly.

Since this scene exists in the stone plate, it cannot escape. The reason why it cannot be restored at this moment is probably because his way of heaven is not perfect enough.

 When he goes back and fuses the Divine Bones of Chaos, and when the way of heaven is gradually completed, he will be able to figure out all the secrets in it sooner or later.

Muyou opened the order space, stored the stone plate in it, and studied it slowly later.

In addition, he has to go to Moon Lake. Now that the war with the God-eating Beast is temporarily over, it does not mean that the matter is over.

The conversation that the mechanic left for him under the Moon Lake allowed him to sniff out some deeper 'truths'. He needed to go to the Moon Lake to confirm. (End of chapter)
