This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous

Shadow ghosts also have limits!

Mu You realized this for the first time.

Judging from the current battle situation, level 30 is probably the upper limit of its ability.

The reason why it seems that it is no match for this thirty-level ghost is because the shadow ghost has no consciousness and is always fighting with instinct.

But that ghost is intelligent, and can adopt some tactics to amplify his offensive and defensive capabilities, so it is easy to gain an advantage.

Of course, Shadow Ghost is not so easy to restrain. When suppressed, it turns into a berserk berserker, and instinctively adopts a more intense trade-for-damage style of play.

As for its speed up, the pirate ghost had no choice but to speed up in order to maintain its suppression. The giant sword swung wildly again and again, and started a drastic damage exchange with the shadow ghost.

It's just that this wave of exchanges was too wild, both sides almost gave up dodging and parrying, and just kept slashing their sharp blades and claws across each other's bodies, and scattered souls kept splashing out from the two soul bodies.

Mu You silently observed the health of both sides, and soon discovered that the seemingly smooth decline of vitality on both sides was actually slightly slower on the pirate side.

No wonder this guy chose to fight against Shadow Ghost. He probably had planned it long ago, and he was destined to win if he fought like this.

Seeing that the battle between the two sides has reached a fierce stage, and both health points have dropped by 50%, while the shadow ghost has already dropped to 40%, the gap between the two sides has indeed become obvious.

Mu You knew that he had to intervene. It would be fine if the two sides fought against each other. Now that you are so clever and bully my shadow ghost, how can you still succeed?

On the battlefield, the pirate ghost moved sideways to avoid the shadow ghost's claw attack, and was about to turn around and take advantage of the momentum to pursue a sword, but just as he took a step, he felt a whistling sound behind him.

Subconsciously looking back, I saw a huge fireball coming head-on at an extremely tricky angle.

Can you not be tricky? This fireball was practiced by Mu You with a pocket watch for more than 30 times before he found the best angle and timing. He just aimed at the halfway point of the opponent's attack and attacked from the side. By the time the opponent found out, it was gone. The space to dodge was smashed right on.

"boom!"

The next moment, the flame burst.

Although a ghost at level 30 faced an ordinary player less than level 10 in Mu You, with up to four levels of damage reduction buff suppression, the damage was only 6% of the original, but after all, the vampire skin also has the talent of a giant killer, 5 With the multiplier, the damage increased to 30%.

The original one-third of the power of the small fireball hit the ghost, and it would not seriously damage his vitality, and it was more than enough to cause some disturbance.

Under one blow, the pirate's movement was smashed and deformed, a sword slashed in the air, but was pierced violently in the stomach by the turning shadow ghost, a large piece of soul was scattered, and the life bar dropped suddenly. A little advantage, instantly pulled back to the same loss.

"Roar!"

The ghost roared angrily, and wanted to turn around to see who made the evil move, but it was a pity that the shadow ghost didn't give him a chance at all, and took advantage of his illness to kill him, chasing and beating him fiercely, the ghost had no choice but to use all his energy Put it back on the parry.

However, just as he stabilized the situation and was about to fight back again, another strong wave of magic power suddenly struck behind him.

This time the ghost learned a lesson, and didn't even have time to look back, so he hurriedly rolled to the side.

I thought this timely reaction would be enough to avoid the sneak attack, but I didn't expect it to fall into a trap instead, and was caught by a fast-rolling snowball.

It turned out that the snowball didn't hit him at first, but was launched towards the side. It didn't matter if he didn't move, but when he rolled, it seemed that he was deliberately coordinating with the performance, and hit him at a very fast speed. snowball.

In the next moment, the snowball exploded and turned into countless ice crystals. Although it was not frozen because the distance did not exceed eighty meters, the deceleration effect brought by the snowball alone was enough for him to drink a pot.

In the snowflakes, Specter's whole body was dyed an icy color, and his movement speed and attack speed were greatly reduced. The Shadow Ghost would not let this opportunity go, and rushed up with a wild explosive attack, taking away nearly 20% of Specter's body in the blink of an eye. The blood volume directly entered the residual blood stage.

The ghost was even more enraged this time, and turned his head to see Mu You who was hiding not far away, still holding a magic wand, and suddenly roared towards the cabin.

He can't tell the difference, but after all, there are many younger brothers under his command.

Under this roar, the ghosts that had been hiding just now rushed out of the boat again, some of them surrounded the shadow ghosts, and some of them rushed towards Mu You's hiding place.

Seeing the little ghosts rushing forward, Mu You didn't even think about confronting them, and planned to retreat to the exit to hide before talking.

In the end, before he could move, the remnant soul of Werley suddenly penetrated the lamp post from the lamp post in his hand, and his body instantly became larger, returning to the size of a normal human being, blocking Mu You, and facing forward Shouted: "Stop it all!"

With this roar, the little ghosts rushing forward, as well as the ghosts who were surrounding the shadow ghosts in the distance, stopped immediately and looked to this side in disbelief.

Seeing the former captain appear, the ghosts seemed to have seen something frightening, the soul fire flickered in their eyes, trembling all over, and they dared not take a step forward.

Mu You saw endless fear and guilt in the eyes of these little ghosts, and this discovery moved his heart.

Originally, he planned to assist the shadow ghosts and kill all these ghosts, but now it seems that these little ghosts still have value?

In the distance, the Great Specter, who was in the decisive battle with the Shadow Ghost, was shocked when he saw Willy suddenly appearing here, and the fire of his soul was shaken.

Even at this moment, Willie knew at a glance that it was just a wisp of weak soul that would dissipate at any time, and he couldn't even survive a slap in front of him, but facing the former captain, Ghost still felt a kind of spirit that came from the soul. deep fear.

No matter how powerful he becomes, he can't change the fact that he is just a traitor. Being imprisoned under this deep sea for a long time is also the punishment for a traitor.

The ghosts wavered, but the shadow ghosts didn't. Seizing the distraction of the pirate ghosts, they chased after them again, instantly turning the ghost's life halo into black.

On the verge of dissipating, the ghost was completely ruthless now, and no longer caring about the figure on the opposite side, it roared angrily and launched a final fierce attack on the shadow ghost. However, Shadow Ghost is not afraid of this, it itself is synonymous with berserk, if others are fierce, it will only be more ruthless!

Shadow Ghost once again started to exchange injuries for injuries. Although the health value dropped faster than the ghost, after all, the advantage of the blood bar is here. After a wave of crazy injuries, it was the ghost who ran out of life first. In extreme unwillingness, he wailed and fell to the ground, turning into a wriggling mass of souls.

However, the Shadow Ghost's situation was also quite bad at this time. In the end, it narrowly won the fight, but it only had its last breath left.

With the last of his strength, Shadow Ghost stepped forward to pick up the piece of soul that contained a huge amount of energy, and swallowed it into his mouth. As soon as the soul enters the mouth, it seems to be falling asleep after eating a full meal, and its movements become more sluggish.

When Mu You saw the situation, without the slightest hesitation, he teleported to the back of the shadow ghost, and the sealing box was quickly buckled.

At this time, Vivian had already grabbed the pocket watch in the distance, and if he made a mistake in sealing it, it would help him go back in time.

But the facts proved that the weak shadow ghost had no strength to resist at this moment, and was successfully sealed into the box by Mu You once with quick eyesight and quick hands.

Mu You lifted the box and looked at it. The shadow ghost who entered the box did not hit the box violently to escape like before, but huddled in a corner, motionless, and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

"It must have been broken..."

Mu You was a little worried about the state of the shadow ghost, but it was too late to take a closer look at this time, there were still a bunch of ghosts waiting for him to deal with.

Putting away the shadow ghost box, Mu You teleported back behind Willy, and Vivian automatically flew back to his shoulder.

The lamppost was the shelter of Willie, just like the earth-bound spirits could not leave the place of death too far, neither could Willier leave the lamppost, otherwise the soul would dissipate at an extremely fast speed.

For example, at this time, Willie forced his way through the lamp post, his soul has obviously become blurred, looming, and it seems that he may completely dissipate at any time.

"captain!"

Seeing Victor, who led them to rebel, be killed, and the former captain reappear before his eyes, all the pirate ghosts present immediately lost their will to fight, dropped their weapons one by one, fell to their knees, and wailed bitterly. , They all prayed to the captain to forgive their past mistakes and give them rest in soul.

Everything has animism, and the sinking of the Ghost 700 years ago was not caused by someone's mistake, but the Ghost itself, which led them into this sea of ​​devils. As one of the most famous pirate ships on the sea for thousands of years, the Ghost naturally has its own ship spirit.

They betrayed the captain and took the Ghost, thinking that everything would be fine, but found that they still couldn't subdue the ship spirit.

In the end, at the cost of destroying itself, the Ghost had to let more than 400 of their betrayers be buried with the captain, and they were buried in the bottom of the sea, and their souls were tortured forever.

After being imprisoned in this dark place for more than seven hundred years, their hostility has long been wiped away, and their edges and corners have been smoothed away. Now the only emotions left are remorse and guilt.

"Stop calling me Captain!"

Willie opened his mouth, his voice has become intermittent, but he still insisted on finishing his last words: "I have already promised others that whoever helps me avenge will get the ownership of the Ghost! From now on, he is the owner of the Ghost." Captain, your fate will also be judged by this new captain!"

Wei Li pointed to Mu You beside him, announcing the delivery of the captain's status.

At the same time, a reminder sounded in Mu You's mind.

[The hidden mission 'Willie's Hatred' has been completed, and you have been approved by the Spirit of the Ghost and become the new owner of the Ghost. You have obtained the highest control authority of the Ghost, you can add and remove any boarding personnel at any time, and you can set the route of the Ghost at any time. 】

"It's finally finished..."

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief. There were many twists and turns in the process, but fortunately, he completed this large-scale task relatively smoothly in the end. Compared with this final reward, all the previous efforts are worthwhile.

Willie glanced at the broken Ghost in the distance with relief and reluctance, and then looked at Mu You.

"This is a good ship. I hope you can repair it and remember to maintain it from time to time. The Ghost sailing in the sea will not let you down..."

Leaving this last sentence, Willy completely turned into a light spot and dissipated with a relieved smile.

In the bay, only Mu You and more than 300 ghost pirates were left.

All the pirates were still kneeling on the ground, looking at Mu You nervously.

The place of their death was on the Ghost, so strictly speaking, they were not trapped on the bottom of the sea, but trapped on the ship, unable to leave the Ghost too far.

The reason why this space was built to protect the ships as much as possible is to have the opportunity to sail out one day and let them see the light of day again.

But at this moment, fate is in the hands of others.

Now this stranger is the captain of the Ghost, and he can drop all the bones on the ship at any time and take the ship away. At that time, they will be imprisoned on the bottom of the sea forever and continue to suffer endless torture.

At this moment, all the ghosts looked at Mu You in fear and anxiety, waiting for his sentence.

Mu You looked at a group of kneeling ghosts in front of him, thought for a while, and then said: "Ten years...everyone, if you serve on the Ghost for ten years, I will forgive your betrayal and give you back your freedom."

Ten years, this is the condition after Mu You's careful consideration, this time is easy for the ghosts to accept, and for him, after ten years, he no longer needs the help of a group of ghost crew.

At that time, no matter whether these ghosts want to rest in peace and reincarnate, or want to lift the restrictions of the earth and continue to survive in the world as free ghosts, he will no longer care.

Hearing the words, the ghosts below couldn't help but look at each other. Just as Mu You expected, they could accept this condition.

Although they didn't directly set them free, at least they could leave this dark seabed. Moreover, compared to the seven hundred years of suffering they have experienced, what is a mere ten years?

"I agree."

"I agree!"

"It's only been ten years..."

"agree……"

...

The pirates spoke one by one, and the voices quickly joined together.

After confirming that all the ghosts agreed, Mu You took out the blood contract scroll that he had snatched from the goblin before.

"If you agree, come and sign this contract."

Mu You took out the quill and wrote the terms on the contract. The condition is very simple, counting from now on, within ten years, the ghost crew will be used by him, and after ten years of dedicated work on the ghost, he promises to return them free.

The ghosts of the contract did not hesitate at all. With this kind of guarantee, they can rest assured that they will not be broken. At this time, they all rushed over and injected a trace of soul into the scroll as a proof of signing the contract.

After waiting for all the ghosts to complete their contracts, Mu You can be considered to have completely taken over the 312 ghost crew members, and now the Ghost is about to become a veritable 'ghost ship'.

Only now did Mu You have time to approach the huge ship over there, and walked into the cabin to check through the broken hull.

After staying in the sand for many years, the accumulated water in the cabin has long been emptied, but the smell of decay and corruption is still unavoidable, and rust and dirt grow wantonly everywhere on the hull.

On the deck and in the various cabins, there are piles of bones of the crew that can be seen everywhere.

The ghosts followed Mu You and rushed into the hull. One by one, they hurriedly found their own bones and burrowed into it. Then one after another of the skeletons climbed up from the ground as if they were alive. With the sound of bones colliding, a group of skeletons appeared in front of Mu You. The team was lined up loosely.

"Captain, please tell me, what should I do next?" One of the skeletons spoke on behalf of the ghosts.

Mu You pondered for a while, and asked, "Is the ship repairman here?"

"exist!"

A skeleton hurriedly squeezed the other skeletons out of the line and came to Mu You.

"How to repair this ship?" Mu You asked. The ship was so badly damaged that it was broken in two from the middle, and it definitely couldn't be pulled out directly for sailing.

"Captain, the damage to the Ghost is easy to deal with. You can just find some scrap materials, and we can repair it as before. The most troublesome thing is the main hull. Now we need a strong enough god wood to repair the broken keel." Repair Said the boatman skeleton.

"Shenmu..."

Mu You frowned. The divine wood mentioned by the other party does not refer to a specific kind of wood, but to a magic tree whose quality reaches a certain level of preciousness, but such wood is so easy to find.

Let's think about it later...

Mu You shook his head and looked at the time. It was already 9:20 in the evening, and it was almost closing time. This matter would definitely not be finished today.

"Is there any treasure on board?" Mu You looked at the skeletons and asked again.

"Yes, of course!"

The ghosts hurriedly led Mu You into the treasure room at the bottom of the ship.

This small room is filled with a lot of gold, silver and jewels, but looking around, they are all ordinary collectibles, and many of them have been corroded by the perennial yin, becoming rusty and lost. The gloss it deserves.

This kind of ordinary treasure is not attractive to Mu You, what he needs is magic props.

After searching through the treasures, he finally found only two gemstones that could be called magic items.

[Blood Gem: Installed in the equipment socket, it can make the equipment have the effect of automatic recovery of life, and restore a little life every second. 】

[Physical Gem: Installed in the equipment socket, it will increase the physical fitness of the person wearing the equipment by 5 points. 】

The effects are not bad, one adds attributes, one automatically restores life, and it is a permanent effect, unlike potions that have a time limit for the number of uses, gems will not be worn out after loading, and can take effect for a long time.

"Is there any more?" Putting away the two gems, Mu You looked at the skeletons again.

"I know, there is also a treasure chest, the captain's most cherished treasure chest that we don't usually let us touch!" One of the skeletons said.

"Where is it?" Mu You asked hurriedly.

"In the captain's cabin!"

Afterwards, Mu You followed the skeleton to the so-called captain's room, and sure enough, he quickly found a magic treasure chest in it.

The box itself is also a high-grade treasure, with a high-level magic lock on it, and the probability of unlocking it is less than 0.1%.

Mu You used the lock hole to open, and went back more than 900 times before finally opening the box.

After opening it, there were only three items in the rather large box: a token, a compass and a scepter.

Mu You first picked up the token and glanced at it.

[Water pass: Thousands of years ago, the royal family of the Laner Empire issued Sir Willie's pass token, which can pass through the major magic passes within the empire without hindrance, and becomes invalid after robbing the country's merchant ships. 】

pass?

Mu You looked at it for a moment, and what surprised him was that this thing was actually issued by the royal family, and Willy, the big pirate leader, was actually a fucking 'jazz'?

In other words, the existence of this group of pirates was recognized by the empire, and they had some interest ties with the royal family.

Robbery of domestic merchant ships is not allowed, but there are no restrictions on ships from other countries. This means that the empire actually encourages pirates to rob the ships of other countries, and everyone divides the money when they are done. In short: rob according to order! It is also under this kind of interest entanglement that the pirates can get this kind of privileged pass.

This stuff is great!

Mu You nodded. With this, you can sail unimpeded in the waterways of the empire in the future, and maybe you can do some waterway transportation. Isn’t this much safer than going overseas to be a pirate?

Moreover, with this underwater passage, Mu You no longer has to worry about how to get to the capital of the empire.

He can even carry a boatload of players and break through directly into the underground river of the capital of the empire. If the timing is right, he might have a chance to steal a tower or something...

Putting away the token, Mu You looked at the remaining two things.

【Fate Compass: A magical compass that will always point to the place you desire strongly in your heart. It only takes effect in the sea and when you are on the Ghost. 】

[Sea Wind Scepter: Let the wind always blow from your back. Only works in sea. 】

These two seem to be props specially made for sailing, a scepter that can keep the wind always in the driving, a compass that can point to the place in the heart and never get lost in the sea, for any navigator Said that these two things are definitely rare treasures, no wonder they are specially sealed in the treasure chest.

Mu You took the compass and glanced at it. The pointer of the compass kept spinning and couldn't stop.

This is because he does not have a specific sailing goal in mind at this time.

After thinking about it, Mu You silently read the name of the capital of the empire in his heart, and hinted that he urgently needed to go there next.

Sure enough, the pointer of the compass stopped immediately and stayed firmly in a certain direction.

"good stuff."

Mu You nodded in satisfaction, and put away the three things. Then he stepped out of the ship and set up a dark teleportation array on the nearby sand.

The time has come to nine forty, it is time for him to go back.

After telling the ghosts to help him guard the teleportation array, and he will come again soon, Mu You stepped into the teleportation array.

However, he didn't go back to the northern snowfield directly, but went outside Sunset City first, to see how the fishing nets were harvested.

After a while of dizziness as usual, Mu You reappeared on the bottom of the sea.

It was already late at night, and it was pitch black outside. Mu You swam ashore, stepped on the reefs all over the ground with a lantern, and found the buoy of the fishing net.

Putting down the jack-o-lantern, Mu You stepped forward and pulled the fishing net. He was both surprised and delighted by the weight of his hand.

The good news is that the fishing net finally caught something this time.

The surprise is...why is it so heavy?

Mu You struggled to pull out the fishing net, only to realize that what was covered in the net pocket was actually a mermaid covered in colorful scales.

This mermaid is less than one meter long, with light blue skin, gills on its neck, webbed hands, a row of fangs faintly visible in its mouth, and hair floating in the air like living snakes. Wriggling, facing Mu You one by one, put on a posture similar to attacking, as if threatening him not to approach.

The mermaid, on the other hand, was curled up at the bottom of the fishing net, sleeping unconscious, with obvious bait residue remaining at the corner of its mouth.
