This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic

 “This…is also true…”

 The Deng Shen carefully thought about Mu You's statement and recognized the feasibility of this plan.

 The biggest advantage of infiltrating the City of Order directly through the server is that there is no limit to the number of people.

 Because there won’t be any marching activities in the world of high heaven at all. No matter how many people go there, they won’t be noticed by the God-Eating Beast.

 Just lead a group of experts to take action, while most other ordinary players still stick to Sunset City, so the main battlefield is actually still in Sunset City.

But once the two armies go to war, the God-Eating Beast will definitely react when it realizes that its home has been stolen. It will either withdraw its troops directly and return to the city to defend, or divide its troops to fight on two fronts. No matter what the choice is, the pressure on Sunset City will be greatly reduced.

“But in this case, we need to open the order server first…”

 The genie approved the plan, but the worry on his face did not diminish at all.

"Yes, the God of Order server. As the agent of God Walker, I should have the opportunity to get control rights, right?" Mu You asked.

“Theoretically, yes...but you need to enter the server first and find the control core.”

The God of Light sighed: "In order to maintain the stability of the Order server, the God of Order left the Balance of Order in the Tower of Order to guard the server, and at the same time, the authority of the entire server was placed on the balance."

“Therefore, as long as you can find the Scale of Order in the tower and let the scale recognize your identity, you can become the administrator of the Tower of Order.”

"oh?"

 Mu You was pleasantly surprised when he heard that the Balance of Order was actually hidden in the Order server, so it was even more worth a visit!

In this way, the three artifacts of the God of Order, the Pen of Order, the Book of Order, and the Scale of Order, have all been born.

“So where is the entrance to the Tower of Order in the Star Spirit Realm?” Mu You asked hurriedly.

 The current map of the Protoss Realm has basically been combed through by players, and there is no place that seems to be an Order server.

 Could it be in some foreign land?

Just as Mu You was thinking about it, he saw the Djinn God shake his head: "The entrance to the Star Spirit Realm of the Tower of Order has been sealed by us..."

 “Oh?” Mu You was a little confused.

It is understandable that the entrance to the City of Order is blocked. It is to prevent the God-Eating Beast from invading the Star Spirit World from the entrance to the upper world. The entrance to the Star Spirit World is also blocked. What is the purpose?

“Of course, this is not a problem. Each server actually has three interfaces, one is connected to the Star Spirit World, one is connected to the High Heaven World, and the last one is connected to the Creation Mountain.”

“Chuangjie Mountain is the link between the Star Spirit World and the High Heaven World, and it is also the only place where all servers must pass.”

“You are now the administrator. Even if both entrances to the upper and lower realms are closed, you can still directly enter the server through Chuangjie Mountain.” Deng Shen said.

Mu You is no stranger to connecting consciousness through causal lines. In the previous Omnic Crisis, when his game characters were disconnected, they were connected in this way.

“Is there any danger in the Tower of Order?” Mu You asked.

The Djinn God said that entering is not a problem, but he still looks sad, which can only mean that there is a problem with the Tower of Order itself and cannot be entered casually.

"well…"

The Djinn God sighed: "Actually, the reason why we closed the Tower of Order back then was not only because we wanted to block the entrance to the Star Spirit Realm, but also because the tower was occupied by a clone of the God of Chaos..."

"In the final battle, the God of Chaos and the God of Order fought in the city. As a result, both sides were seriously injured. The God of Order was on the verge of death, and the God of Chaos was also seriously injured and retreated."

“But before the God of Chaos left, he secretly dropped a clone into the Tower of Order while our military morale was in chaos, and hid it.”

The Djinn God shook his head and said: "I told you before that the entrance to the Tower of Order was contaminated with the poison of chaos, which made it impossible for the surviving gods like us to evacuate to the Star Spirit World alive. The poison of chaos here is actually this body. Created by clones.”

“The God of Chaos should have noticed at that time that we were planning to escape into the Star Spirit Realm through the Tower of Order, so he threw this clone into the Tower of Order in advance to ambush us in the tower and cut off our retreat.”

"It's a pity that we only discovered this when we were preparing to retreat after heading straight. Many gods' skeletons were destroyed by this clone."

"Even if the God of Order at that time knew the existence of this clone, he was already unable to kill the opponent. He had no choice but to use his last divine power to lock the clone in a certain area of ​​the Tower of Order before he died. There is no way to escape for the time being.”

"Then after we sent all the divine bones to the Star Spirit Realm, we followed the last wish of the God of Order and used the Balance of Order to seal off the upper and lower entrances of the entire Tower of Order, completely imprisoning this chaotic clone in the Tower of Order. "The Djinn explained.

“That is to say...this clone is still alive in the Tower of Order?” Mu You frowned.

"Yes."

 The Djinn God nodded with a serious expression: "This means that if you enter the tower, you need to face this chaotic clone head-on!"

“Even though it is just a clone, its true body is the God of Chaos. He is currently the most powerful **** in the entire God-Eating Beast force. Even the clone has god-level strength.”

“Furthermore, the God of Chaos and the God of Order have a restraining relationship with each other. They are not weaker than the God of Order in terms of divine power and strength!”

"Once you fail in the duel with the chaos clone, it is not as simple as the consciousness being expelled from the Tower of Order. Your deviation value will be affected by the power of chaos, thus exceeding the upper limit... I don't need to say more about the consequences of the deviation exceeding the upper limit. Right." The Deng God looked at Mu You.

Mu You breathed out.

 The change in the deviation value is irreversible. Once the upper limit is exceeded, the person will lose his original intention, his character will darken, and he will become a character like Caesar.

  Even the entire consciousness has become an existence that cannot be understood by itself. In theory, it is no different from death.

“Even so, are you sure you want to go in?” The Deng Shen looked at Mu You seriously.

　　　…”

 Mu You hesitated for a long time this time.

 After a moment, he suddenly raised his head and asked: "Then if I destroy this clone in the Tower of Order, will the God of Chaos know about it?"

"Well…"

The Djinn was stunned and shook his head: "That's not true. This clone was created by the God of Chaos to harm us. He deliberately cut off all connections with the main body. When it appeared, it was completely connected to the main body of the God of Chaos. Cut off the contact, otherwise we would not have discovered its existence for so long..."

"That's good…"

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, and then said firmly: "In this case, I will go and have a try."

This matter is indeed very risky, but the Fool is currently on a path that goes against heaven. If he wants to completely overturn the threat of the God-eating Beast, there will be many decisions with greater risks in the future.

Whether it was to open a passage for the battle between the two armies, or to obtain the Balance of Order, this Order Server, he had to break through.

"Okay...but you can only enter the Tower of Order consciously. Others can't help you inside. Once you enter, you can only rely on yourself." The Deng Shen said.

"I see."

Mu You nodded, and without wasting any time, he discussed the detailed situation with the Djinn God. After making some preparations, he found a place to lie down, closed his eyes and sunk his consciousness into the line of cause and effect.

Following the causal line all the way upstream, we soon came to the huge ball of light representing the Creation Mountain again.

After taking a rough look at the eyeball from a distance, Mu You followed the guidance of the genie and searched all the way on the surface of the lightball. After spending more than two hours, he finally found an extremely hidden gray causal line.

 This is the entrance to Server No. 1. Because it has been abandoned and there is no existing administrator, the causal line is gray.

Not everyone can enter this kind of server where no one is in charge. According to the Djinn God, if there is no administrator or the administrator dies unexpectedly, only the highest-level one among the current believers in this department can Only believers can come and go at will.

Mu You's current Order Faith is only 5 stars, but he is a Servant Walker and is born with the authority equivalent to a 9-star Holy Spirit. Among the current Order believers, there cannot be anyone higher than him.

Muyou attempts to connect consciousness to this line of cause and effect.

Sure enough, after the initial feeling of blockage, consciousness was successfully accepted.

When his conscious vision returned again, Mu You opened his eyes and looked. What appeared in front of him was a dark and silent space.

The imagined scene of being besieged by many hostile creatures as soon as I entered did not appear. On the contrary, it was terrifyingly quiet and empty. You could hear a needle drop, and you couldn't feel any life around you. It seemed that you had entered a dead world. There was only one thing in the world. He is a living person.

Mu You remained vigilant and moved forward cautiously.

This should be a certain level in the Tower of Order. Fortunately, the area is not too large. After wandering for a long time, Mu You found the entrance to the upper level.

 When we arrived at the second floor, it was still as empty as the first floor. Muyou had no choice but to continue exploring and climbing.

the third floor…

 Fourth floor…

 Fifth floor…

 …

 Level after level, constantly going up.

However, everything you see along the way is empty, with no monsters, no buildings or objects.

 On the fiftieth floor, Mu You finally saw the first living creature after entering the tower.

A stone platform and two stone chairs stand abruptly in the center of the 50th floor.

　　A human shadow with two wings on its back, sitting on a stone chair in front of the stone platform.

This man was covered in black energy, and his face could not be seen clearly. He could only roughly see his outline.

On the stone platform, a chessboard was clearly carved horizontally and vertically. On both sides of the chessboard, black and white chess pieces were placed in stone bowls on both sides.

If nothing unexpected happens, this person should be the clone of the God of Chaos.

 Mu You felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, keeping a high degree of vigilance and slowly walked forward.

At this time, the figure also noticed Mu You approaching, looked up at him, but did not make any drastic action, or even stood up. He just pointed to the stone chair on the other side of the stone table and made a gesture of invitation.

 “You are finally here.” The figure made a chaotic and indistinguishable voice.

 “Do you know me?” Mu You frowned.

Didn’t it mean that this clone was sealed in this server and completely cut off from the outside world? How did the other party know that he would come here?

“I don’t know you, but I know you must be the descendant of the God of Order…”

“As early as when Order died, I knew that sooner or later, his descendants would enter here again…

 So I also set up the chessboard early, waiting for your visit. "The shadow man said calmly.

 Mu You looked around more and more suspiciously, seriously suspecting that this was a trap. The other party just wanted to trick him into getting there, and then strike first or something.

“Why, are you afraid that I will harm you?” The shadow man seemed to see Mu You’s thoughts and smiled: “Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. It should be said that there is no point in killing you.”

 “This is the same for you.”

“At our level, victory and defeat can no longer be determined by physical winning or losing.”

“Only by defeating the opponent in the game of divine power can it be considered a real victory.”

The shadow man pointed to the seat opposite again.

"Come on, I have been waiting for this moment for countless years. Everything in this tower has made me sick to my stomach."

"As long as I defeat you, I can leave here and return to my true form. And if you defeat me, you will be able to completely control this server, and I will also be free... In short, no matter what the outcome is, I will acceptable."

　　　…”

Mu You looked strange when he heard what the other party said.

This so-called clone of the God of Chaos is very different from what he imagined...

 Mu You thought that after meeting the God of Chaos, he would definitely have a fierce confrontation with real swords and spears.

 In the end, I really didn’t expect that the outcome would be decided in such a civilized way…

Mu You stepped forward and looked at the chessboard on the stone platform.

 Go?

 He doesn’t know how to do this stuff...

Mu You frowned, but still sat on the stone chair on the other side.

 Fortunately, at the next moment, Dang Muyou opened the perspective of order.

The chessboard in front of him suddenly changed, turning into a board composed purely of runes of order and chaos.

At this moment, the chessboard is divided by a diagonal line. The two sides are clearly divided. One side is full of chaos runes, and the other side is filled with order runes.

 Order and chaos are just like the Chu-He-Han boundary. They are separated on two sides. They do not blend with each other, but they are in opposition to each other.

Especially in the border area, the runes of order and chaos are fighting fiercely, constantly devouring each other, but because of their equal strength, they always maintain a dynamic balance.

Mu You immediately understood the meaning.

　　Not Go, at least not the kind of Go he knew, but a pure battle of rules.

Next, each of their chess pieces represents the power of order and chaos. The purpose is to devour the opponent's chess pieces and transform them into their own chess pieces. Only when the entire chess board is occupied by one type of chess piece can it be considered separate. Win or lose.

 The test is not about chess skills, but their respective understanding of the laws of order and chaos.

 “Now that you’re ready, let’s get started.”

The shadow man pinched out a black stone from the stone bowl, but did not place it. Instead, he raised his head and said: "As for who strikes first... let the referee decide."

 “Referee?”

Before Mu You could understand what the other party meant, he suddenly felt the ground shaking.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　∣

  Amid the violent shaking, the surrounding stone slabs began to fall piece by piece, falling into the 49th floor at a height of nearly 100 meters below.

 The surrounding area suddenly became empty.

Mu You looked down and realized that the square stone table next to him was actually built on a huge scale!

 The stone table is in the middle of the scale, and the stone chairs of the two of them are just on the left and right sides of the scale.

 The balance of order? !

Mu You was shocked. He thought that he would have to defeat the clone of the God of Chaos before he could find the scale. Unexpectedly, the scale was actually at the feet of both parties.

Moreover, this person seems to want the scale of order to be the judge of their fight...

Just as he was thinking about it, the shadows of three dice quietly took shape in the sky above the center of the scale, and then began to shake rapidly and irregularly.

 After a few seconds, the three dice stopped one after another.

　　【二、三、二． 】

【Small! Bai Zi strikes first! 】

Two lines of information appeared on the stone table.

 “emmm…”

Mu You looked strange.

 The result is ‘small’, yes, but why did White move first? Who bets big and who bets small seems to have not decided yet...

 You are asked to be the referee, and you are so blatantly partial. Are you worthy of the name "Scale"? (End of chapter)
