Legendary Son-in-Law: The Man with Poison Talismans

Lin Mu took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and thought, "This time I must succeed." Then he used his mind to lock onto the position beneath his feet.

Thinking about: memory coordinates.

A clear prompt appeared in my mind.

[Coordinates already memorized: Purgatory Corridor, 0154/6512]

It became.

Lin Mu opened his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slowly turned up. But he was still thinking about whether he could memorize multiple coordinates and try again.

He took a few more steps forward, the torchlight flickering with his steps, illuminating the ground not far ahead.

The gravel, stone chips, and dried bloodstains were almost exactly the same as the location he had just been in, but he knew the coordinates had changed.

He closed his eyes again and focused his mind on the memory coordinates.

Another prompt popped into my mind.

[Memory failed. Do you want to replace the already memorized coordinates (Purgatory Corridor, 0154/6512) with coordinates (Purgatory Corridor, 0158/6507)?]

【whether】

Lin Mu thought for a moment: No.

It seems that the three memory equipment pieces can only store one coordinate. That's all. You either keep the original ones or replace them with new ones.

But this is good too. As Gu An said, with the memory coordinates and the teleportation ring, we can teleport back to the Purgatory Corridor from anywhere.

As he spoke, he took out the teleportation ring to take a look.

I wonder how many coordinates can be memorized by collecting all four memory equipment pieces. If multiple coordinates can be memorized, and it's paired with a teleportation ring, could it be used to take on all high-level bosses?

Just as Lin Mu was about to put the memory equipment into his Qiankun bag, his gaze suddenly swept over the status bar, and he abruptly stopped.

A line of small text appeared in the status bar at some point.

[Memory Coordinates: Purgatory Corridor, 0154/6512]

He was taken aback. When he memorized the coordinates, only a prompt appeared in his mind, and he assumed the coordinates were stored in his memory equipment. He didn't expect them to appear directly in his status bar.

Lin Mu took off the memory helmet and put on another ordinary memory helmet.

The small print in the status bar is still there.

He then removed the memory necklace and memory ring and put on ordinary equipment.

The small text in the status bar was still there, but the light had dimmed. At first glance, it looked like it had disappeared.

Lin Mu stared at the status bar for several seconds and then he understood.

The memory equipment is merely a tool for storing coordinates; the actual coordinates are directly bound to the individual and exist in the status bar, just like level, experience, HP, and MP—they are an integral part of the individual.

Even if someone takes away his memory equipment, they won't be able to see or use this coordinate.

Even if he changes to other memory equipment, the coordinates of his previous memories will not disappear unless he actively chooses to replace them.

As for the function of memory equipment...

Lin Mu thought for a moment and roughly guessed it. The memory equipment itself does not store coordinates; its function is to "activate" the coordinate information in the status bar, allowing the wearer to use it.

In other words, he must wear at least three memory equipment pieces to activate the coordinates in the status bar and use the teleportation ring to teleport.

If you don't wear any of them, the coordinates will still be in the status bar, but you won't be able to use them.

Lin Mu went through this logic in his mind without delving deeper, and put the memory equipment into his Qiankun bag.

Then, his gaze fell on the teleportation ring on his finger, and just as he was about to put it back, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

The skeleton teleported and saved the master. However, it only happened once; no matter how many times they tried afterward, it never happened again.

But the skeleton did indeed possess teleportation abilities. Furthermore, it absorbed the powder from the Woma Horn, and since the Woma Chieftain himself can teleport, it's illogical that it would completely disappear after absorbing so much powder and triggering the teleportation only once.

Perhaps that ability still exists, but the skeleton doesn't know how to use it on its own.

So, can I help it?

When they merged, he inherited all of the skeleton's attributes.

Although some attributes are not reflected in the skeleton's simple data panel, such as accuracy.

Logically speaking, my accuracy isn't that high right now, so I'm bound to miss sometimes. But when I was hitting the moth before, every single strike hit its mark perfectly, without missing once.

Chapter 129 Demon Sealing Hall

This indicates that he has inherited the skeleton's accuracy. Could the skeleton's teleportation ability also be inherited after the fusion?

Lin Mu became more and more excited as he thought about it, and his heart started racing. He decided to give it a try.

He had long since figured out the teleportation ring's teleportation ability: it could be used once every five minutes, covering a maximum distance of fifty meters each time. The long cooldown and short range were sufficient for occasional survival, but it was far from adequate for traveling or for flexible movement while fighting monsters.

Without hesitation, Lin Mu put the teleportation ring back on.

He gave the skeleton two torches and told it to move forward.

The monsters in the Purgatory Corridor have been mostly cleared out, and the demonic energy seems to have thinned out somewhat. The torchlight can now reach further, no longer swallowed up by the thick, dark purple mist as before.

The skeleton took a step forward, its joints cracking, and stopped about 50 meters ahead, sticking a torch into the ground.

Then I walked forward for about 50 meters and planted another one.

Two torches lit up in the darkness, one in front of the other, like two guiding lights.

Lin Mu stood still, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and focused his mind.

"Combined".

At a distance of 100 meters, the skull turned into silvery-white specks of light and surged toward it, covering its shoulder armor, breastplate, and arm armor, with layers of bone armor enveloping its body.

He opened his eyes, drank a large magic potion, and let Lan recover slowly, while his gaze fell on the torch 100 meters ahead.

With a thought: 100 meters ahead.

With a "whoosh," a flash of white light appeared, and he vanished from his original spot, reappearing precisely at the location of the second torch.

He looked down and saw the torch right at his feet.

The teleportation distance has doubled, from 50 meters to 100 meters, or even further.

He was so excited he almost jumped for joy, but instead of jumping to conclusions, he tried it again.

My gaze fell back to the first torch, 50 meters away.

With a thought: 50 meters ahead.

A flash of light appeared in my mind, followed by a faint prompt:

Please try again later.

Lin Mu wasn't in a hurry. Cooling down was to be expected. The key was whether the cooling time had shortened.

He stood there, silently thinking: 50 meters ahead.

One second, two seconds... I don't know if it was four or five seconds, but the time was very short.

With a "whoosh," a flash of white light appeared, and he was standing next to the torch fifty meters away again.

Lin Mu tried it a few more times, and the cooldown time was indeed greatly shortened, from 5 minutes to 5 seconds, and the maximum flash distance was 100 meters.

He thought for a moment. The first Flash didn't need to wait for cooldown, and from the second one onwards, he could Flash once every 5 seconds.

In other words, the first two flashes only require one cooldown, meaning you can flash 200 meters in as little as five seconds. That's much faster than running on foot.

Lin Mu leaned against the wall and grinned.

If he continues to upgrade and the skeleton continues to evolve, will the teleport distance after merging be even greater? Will the cooldown be even shorter?

Lin Mu shook his head, not wanting to think about it any further.

Now is not the time to think about this.

He separated the skeleton from the combined body, and silvery-white light spots rose from the bone armor, reforming into the tall skeleton beside him.

He stretched his shoulders, put away the teleportation ring, and his gaze fell on the end of the Purgatory Corridor.

The stone gate leading to the Demon Sealing Hall is still there.

But Lin Mu didn't rush over.

He took a break, then pulled a sesame seed cake from his storage bag, took a bite, drank half a pot of water, and leaned against the wall to chew slowly.

Lin Mu was munching on a sesame seed cake, but his mind was far from idle.

He recalled his previous experiences of being together.

Each time they combine, the mana bar is completely emptied. No matter how much mana was left before, it all goes to zero the moment they combine.

The duration of the fusion seems to be related to the amount of mana consumed.

He closed his eyes and went through the several times they had been intimate in his mind.

The first time they combined, their mana was insufficient, and the duration was very short, lasting only a few minutes before disintegrating. In subsequent attempts, the more mana they had, the longer they could last.

Lin Mu opened his eyes, and had a rough estimate in his mind.

30 mana points can last for about a minute.

He currently has 199 points of full mana. Based on this ratio, he can maintain the combined attack for about six and a half minutes.

Six and a half minutes.

It's neither too long nor too short. It's enough for a temporary burst of activity, but for a tough battle, careful planning is needed.

Moreover, the fusion can be actively dispelled, which he had already tested earlier.

With a thought, the bone armor would turn into silver light and dissipate, and the skeleton would reappear beside him.

But once the mana is used, it's used, and actively canceling the use won't refund the mana cost.

Another advantage is that there's no cooldown period for merging. As long as your mana is above half, you can merge again at any time.

However, after several uses, Lin Mu discovered that in some situations, combining was actually not as convenient as separating, such as when he was surrounded by wedge moths.

Lin Mu swallowed the last bite of the sesame seed cake. By then, Lan had returned. He stood up, changed his teleportation ring and survival equipment, closed his eyes, and with a thought, he moved his mind.

"Combined."
