This text adventure game is absolutely toxic 2

[Seeing your shocked expression, which seemed to be very interested in 'that person', the old man suddenly said: "I still have some relics left by this person at home, do you want to see them?"]

[You come back to your senses and nod hurriedly, indicating that you want to see it. 】

["Wait a minute, it's too long ago. I need to look for it..." The old man got up and went to the storage room in the backyard. He rummaged through the cabinets for a long time and finally pulled out a square metal from under the corner of a table. 】

["This is it... The day before he died, that man gave me a lot of iron toys, saying that he wanted me to keep them as much as possible. Unfortunately, after so many years, other things have been broken, and only this one has been broken. The stone is very strong. I often use it to pad the corners of the table..."]

"..."

Mu You took the thing from the old man's hand. When he saw the description of the thing, he already had some guesses in his mind.

And the text that popped up next confirmed his idea.

[You have obtained 'another piece of mechanical heart'. 】

It is indeed a mechanical heart!

The mechanic left several sets of Origin Armor and Mechanical Heart in the Garden of Eden, and left with only two sets of special armor.

But if he wants to control the armor, he must also need a mechanical heart as a key.

Mu You had guessed before that there should be more than one piece of the Mechanical Heart. Now his idea was confirmed. The Mechanical Heart is something that can be repeatedly manufactured, and the mechanic may have many pieces in his hands.

[The appearance of this mechanical heart is almost the same as yours, except that a one-time sound pattern is carved on one side. Maybe you could rig it up and try to broadcast its content. 】

[You assembled the mechanical heart and used a moon stone to power it. 】

[A voice note automatically plays in your mind. 】

["Hahaha, I finally did it!"]

["The armor of my dreams is a miraculous armor that can be worn on the body like clothes. Although it seems thin, it has all the internal organs and has the functions that a normal armor should have!"]

["As long as you put on this suit of armor, you can perfectly resist the invasion of parasites, and you can also have powerful defense capabilities comparable to those of our ancestors..."]

["Because it was inspired by the creature called 'Red Sky Ape', I named this ultimate armor 'Red Sky'."]

["It's a pity that there is still one last step to go..."]

["I have designed the drawings, found all the materials, and put them together to create a set of Chixiao samples. However, it still needs to be tempered before it can be completely formed."]

["The entire body of this armor is made of materials from the Ring Forest. All parts are extremely strong. It is extremely difficult to change its properties. There is only one way I can think of - Moon Lake!"

And it cannot be the Moon Lake in the ordinary period. Only during the Moon Festival period, after the Eye of the Moon is opened, can it be possible to complete the tempering of Chi Xiao by relying on the deep lake water with more energy in the Eye of the Moon..."]

["It's a pity that these savages do not allow outsiders to approach the Moon Lake... But it doesn't matter, the Moon Festival is coming soon. At that time, I will find an opportunity to quietly touch the Moon Lake, send the armor into the Eye of the Moon, and complete the tempering..." 】

["According to my estimation, the tempered Chi Xiao should be able to resist the erosion of the Moon Lake. Therefore, in theory, as long as you wear this suit of armor, you will not be affected even if you jump into the Moon Lake... Of course, the premise is Before the tempering is completed, I need to rely on my own strength to survive in the lake..."]

["Of course I know this is dangerous, but I believe I will succeed!"]

["The apocalypse that once awakened my wisdom was given to me by Yuedie, and Yuedie came from Moon Lake. I worked hard all my life to find that apocalypse, and finally came to Moon Lake, and this ultimate armor , and it is necessary to complete it in the source land of Moon Lake, it is reasonable, isn't it? So I firmly believe that this is the original goal of the apocalypse: to lead me step by step to the center of the Ring Forest, just to let me Use the lake water here to complete this set of armor!"]

The text ends abruptly.

After reading this, Mu You looked very strange: So this is the reason why you jumped into the Moon Lake?

According to him, the complete Chixiao armor can even withstand the corrosiveness of the Moon Lake, so his plan is to jump into the Moon Lake wearing the unfinished Chixiao and complete the final step of tempering in the Eye of the Moon.

As long as he can persist until the end of the tempering, the complete Chixiao armor can in turn protect him from the Moon Lake. In the end, he will emerge from the Moon Lake with the complete Chixiao safe and sound.

Judging from the logic of the message, the mechanic was in a good mental state at this time and was not crazy. In other words, this plan was not a sudden idea on his part, but the result of careful consideration.

However, the final outcome was that he failed. Not to mention entering the Eye of the Moon, the mechanic was corrupted and his corpse was gone as soon as he jumped into the Moon Lake...

["Let's go, I'll take you to see the clan leader... But don't expect too much." Sethia quickly packed up her things and walked to the courtyard door to greet you to leave. 】

Mu You had already told Muro's mother before that the purpose of coming here was to meet the clan leader, inform him about the problem of parasitic beasts, and win over the savage clan.

As the best herbalist in the tribe, Sethia had a good relationship with the current patriarch and knew his character very well. He guessed that Mu You would probably be rejected when he went there, so he gave him a vaccination in advance.

Mu You breathed out. No matter what the result was, he was here and had to give it a try.

[You follow Sethia all the way to the main entrance of the seventh floor. 】

[Several heavily armed savage soldiers blocked your way. 】

[Sesia stopped in front of you, explained to several people, and vouched for you many times before the savage soldiers let you go. However, there were still two soldiers following you the whole time, guarding your every move. 】

[Entering the seventh floor, you will find that the population density here is obviously much sparser than that on the sixth floor. 】

[According to Sethia, only the middle and high-level personnel among the savages are qualified to settle in the seventh level for a long time. 】

[Under the leadership of Sethia, you finally arrived in front of a large building in the center of the seventh floor. On the stone sculpture in front of the building, there were three large characters of 'Senate Hall' carved on it. 】

["Let's go, the patriarch is inside." Sethia greeted you and walked in. 】

[You are about to follow in, and suddenly you feel a vague thought coming from the time seed in your mind. 】

[Unfortunately, this idea is too weak and has disappeared before you can recognize it. 】

[Under the urging of the soldiers at the rear, you had to enter the meeting hall first. 】

The text seemed to remind him that something strange had happened, but unfortunately, in full view of the public, Mu You couldn't study it in detail, so he had to skip it first.

[As soon as you entered the building, you heard an old voice yelling curses deep in the hall. 】

["Waste, it's all waste!"]

["Are you all pig-minded? I have to do it myself for such a trivial matter..." "You all have to be at your best, the moon festival ceremony is about to begin, and no mistakes will be allowed..."]

[Amidst the old man's angry scolding, several savage officials passed by you yawning sleepily. One of them looked at you slightly unexpectedly, but did not stop and walked out of the hall. 】

[You follow Sethia into the hall and see a white-haired old savage sitting behind a desk. The desk is filled with various papers and documents. The old man's face is red, with veins popping out on his forehead. Covering his heart with his hand, he picked up the potion on the table tremblingly with the other hand and drank it in one gulp. His face looked better...]

This old savage must be the leader of the savage clan. It can be seen that he is indeed very busy.

This is not difficult to understand. Mu You put himself in the other person's shoes and thought about it. If he sat in the other party's position and faced a group of savage subordinates who didn't know how to turn around every day, he would probably be angry and heartbroken.

[The old savage man noticed you guys approaching and looked at you in surprise: "Sethiya? You are a rare visitor..."]

[The old man looked at Sethia, with some guilt flashing across his face: "Because I rejected your request, your temperament changed drastically. You resigned from your position as herbalist, moved out of the tribe, and stopped communicating with others... After so long, are you finally willing to let it go?"] [Faced with the old man's inquiry, Sethia was expressionless and did not respond. 】

[The old man's face became more ashamed, and he sighed: "It wasn't that I was heartless back then, but that the location of the gap in space was too dangerous. Once outsiders knew about it, Jie Lin would never have peace. For the safety of the ethnic group, I had to make this move. I think even Muro will understand my approach."]

[Hearing the other party mentioning Muro, a trace of anger flashed across Sethia's face, and he said coldly: "Thanks to you, my son is living very well now. I am here today not to investigate the past, but to Bring this child to you."]

[The savage leader then noticed you hiding behind Sethia and looked you up and down: "Who are you? What's the matter?"]

From the conversation between Sethia and the clan leader, Mu You had already vaguely guessed what was going on.

Obviously, after Muro disappeared, Sethia came to the clan leader, hoping that he could send people out to retrieve Muro. Unfortunately, out of racial security considerations, the clan leader not only did not search, but also sent people to directly remove the entrance. Blocked.

In this way, Jie Lin is safe, but it is equivalent to sacrificing Muro.

After a brief thought, Mu You didn't say anything. This was a matter within the family and had nothing to do with him.

At this moment, he finally found an opportunity to communicate with the clan leader. Mu You hurriedly sent a large message that he had compiled early, introducing his identity and purpose of coming, and clearly stating the crisis the savage clan was currently facing.

[As you are trying to explain the situation, the savage leader suddenly interrupts you: "It goes without saying, young man, I understand your purpose."]

["Thank you for your reminder. We will pay attention to the movements of the protoss. But if you plan to let the ancestors form an alliance with you to help you fight against the protoss, then don't even think about it."]

["The late king led our clan to live in seclusion here in order to avoid being involved in the whirlpool of power struggles from the outside world.' By adhering to one's heart, guarding the forest, and never intervening in affairs outside the forest, we can protect our clan. "Eternal", this is the legacy left by the late king."]

["Between your speculation without evidence and the legacy of the late king, who do you think I will believe? Who will the clansmen believe?"]

As Sethia expected, the patriarch decisively rejected his lobbying.

Mu You then continued to persuade without giving up, explaining from multiple angles the great threat of the God-Eating Beast and the benefits of cooperation between the two races.

It's a pity that no matter what he said, the leader of the savage tribe was still unable to get in. Anyway, he decided on one dead truth: the late king said that as long as they stay in the forest and stay in the forest, nothing will happen to the tribe. In short, the late king's legacy must not be violated.

This time Mu You was completely at his wits end.

Looking at this situation, the late king is a god-like existence in the hearts of most savages, and the words left by the late king are the rules of heaven that must be abided by. If you want to move them, it is estimated that the only way to move them is to resurrect the late king, or to openly break into the Ring Forest with the God-Eating Beast. It's possible to wake them up.

It’s no wonder that the savage clan has such a hard time communicating. The clan leader himself is a stubborn old man who doesn’t know how to adapt. If the superiors follow the example, the people below will certainly not fare much better.

Mu You was then 'sent off' and left the meeting hall, but he did not leave the seventh floor directly because the clan leader who brought him here, Sethia, was left behind to reminisce.

Mu You thus gained a period of time to stay in the seventh level.

[You are wandering near the door of the conference hall, and the time seed in your body suddenly conveys an idea to you again. 】

[This time you feel clearly that the seed of time has guided you in a direction. 】

[You follow the guidance of the Seed of Time and see that at the end of your field of vision is a blue, waveless lake...]

"Moon Lake?"

Mu You was a little surprised. The seed of time seemed to be guiding him to approach Moon Lake?

The prompt from the Seed of Time came and went quickly. After such a vague prompt popped up, there was no more news.

Mu You couldn't tell for a moment what the Seed of Time wanted him to do.

After thinking about it, Mu You activated his ability to hide in the wind, invisible in the wind, and approached the direction of Yue Lake.

Of course he didn't want to jump into the Moon Lake. There were so many guards on the lakeside and it was impossible for him to survive. He just planned to get closer to see if he could activate the Seed of Time prompt again.

Unfortunately, the Seed of Time prompt never appeared again, but two other unexpected prompts popped up one after another.

[Warning: There is severe interference ahead. If you continue to move forward, the game text delay will increase significantly until the connection is lost. 】

Mu You had just walked out not far when a warning similar to 404 popped up.

The area ahead seems to be out of the game's range of influence, and the game will be disconnected if you go further.

Mu You quickly asked the characters to withdraw.

Then another prompt popped up.

["Didi...Didi...a strong continuous pulse signal is detected thousands of meters ahead! It comes from the bottom of the lake..." Ava gives you a warning. 】

"Oh?"

Mu You was stunned for a moment, but he wasn't too surprised. The mechanic jumped into the moon lake wearing the armor. He himself died, but the armor moonstone and other things should not have been dissolved, but sank to the bottom of the lake.

Those armors and moon stones were probably carved with some positioning signals by mechanics. They were close to Moon Lake at this time, so it was normal for them to receive these signals.

["Note: This signal is not a signal produced by a mechanical body, but a biological signal sent by biological brain wave energy gathering."]

At this time, Ava suddenly reminded again, leaving Mu You confused. What does it mean, a signal from a living thing? There are living creatures under the water?

Moreover, the signal that can be received by Ava must be a specially tuned fixed signal. Only the Origin Armor can receive each other. Creatures that can send out such signals...

"Could it be that...the mechanic is still alive?"

Mu You felt unbelievable. Even if all the savages were dazzled at that time and the mechanic did not die after jumping into the lake, tens of thousands of years have passed. How could a person be still alive after being sunk at the bottom of the Moon Lake for tens of thousands of years?

["Careful!" Ava's warning sounded. 】

[You encountered a sudden attack by a savage! 】

[When crisis comes, the armor automatically activates defense under Ava's control, ejecting you from the back of the armor. 】

[Your body was directly exposed to the air, fell to the ground, and suffered a bloody head injury. 】

[And the next second, the armor guarding you was torn apart by a savage's fist, shattered into countless fragments and parts, flying in all directions. 】

[And behind the broken armor, what is exposed is the expressionless face of a middle-aged savage. 】

[You immediately recognized this person: he was one of the few savage officials who just walked out of the patriarchal chamber...] (End of this chapter)
