This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous

Chapter 191 Only Fishing in Muddy Waters

Mu You stood in front of the mountain wall, looking at the narrow and deep cave entrance ahead.

He took out a hand-drawn map from his pocket and reviewed the contents on it again.

After confirming that all the details had been recorded in his mind, Mu You put away the map, took out the troll altar, took a deep breath, and stepped into the crypt with the altar.

As soon as he stepped into the range of the crypt, a cold and damp atmosphere immediately enveloped him, and at the same time, what poured into his nose was a burst of suffocating air mixed with the smell of troll body and rotting flesh.

Mu You frowned, endured the discomfort and walked on the dirt path.

Sure enough, countless troll ghosts emerged one after another around him, one by one baring their teeth and claws, circling around him and constantly checking and inspecting him.

Mu You is currently using the skin of a mysterious person, wearing a mysterious magic robe, an invisibility cloak, and a thousand faces on his face, and has activated deep concealment, plus the coffin in his hand... It can be said that he has already used all the current means of hiding his identity.

Of course, the effect was surprisingly good. None of the ghosts made it difficult for him in the end, and Mu You passed the dirt path smoothly.

After walking straight forward for more than 30 meters, the eyes finally opened up.

The nature that comes into view is the underground tunnel mentioned in the game text.

To Mu You's surprise, the tunnel is not as rough and primitive as imagined, but rather finely built. The boulders are cut according to strict proportions, and the piles are tightly stacked. The surface of all the stones has also been polished. Smooth as a mirror.

If it weren't for the fact that these stone walls were covered with dust and thick moss due to long-term care, Mu You couldn't even believe that this was a building built by a wild monster like a troll.

Mu You soon had no time to care about these details. As soon as he entered the tunnel area, he immediately felt the breath of many living beings, coming from all directions, and at the same time, there were faint footsteps wandering aimlessly.

Sure enough, when a real person enters this place, he receives much more information than in the game!

Mu You didn't waste any time, and immediately headed towards the first high-level troll grave marked on the map.

The way to travel is the same as in the game, using missiles to explore the path, and cooperate with the time pocket watch to find an unguarded path.

However, this operation is much more convenient to use in reality than in games.

There are no screens and only a few texts in the game, so most of the additional operations need to be predicted and estimated time to keep trying.

But in reality, there are far less scruples. Just keep releasing missiles all the way. If you hit it, you will immediately backtrack and stop, and if you miss it, you will keep moving forward.

Moreover, since the exact location where the missile hit can be directly seen in reality, it is equivalent to Mu You being able to know the location where the troll is invisible in advance.

Therefore, even if there is a place guarded by trolls, he can go around stealthily from the side without waiting for the patrolling trolls to go away. The efficiency is not a little bit high.

In less than five minutes, Mu You arrived at the first burial site smoothly.

But from here, the next time will be against the clock.

As long as the tomb has been absorbed, it may be discovered by patrol personnel at any time, which will trigger a higher level of guarding power.

So the more he delays, the more difficult his actions will be. Starting from the absorption of the first tomb, the next step must be done in one go, as quickly as possible.

Mu You has already designed a route connecting the nineteen scheduled tombs in advance. If you follow this route, you can pass through all the high-level tombs in the shortest time.

Putting the altar flat on the grave in front of him, Mu You watched the magic circle rush out quickly, wrapping the entire tomb, like the mouth of a corpse-eating monster, swallowing the grave, and then wriggling continuously, Absorbs the remains in the catacomb into the shrine.

Mu You scanned the surroundings vigilantly. Once he noticed signs of patrolling trolls passing by, he immediately went back in time, took away the coffin and concealed it, and continued to put the coffin back to absorb after the guards left completely.

It's a bit slow this way, but it's better than being safe.

Mu You held the pocket watch and was ready to play hide-and-seek with the trolls at any time.

However, the absorption speed of this first tomb was much faster than he imagined.

Only a minute later, a reminder came to my mind.

[The shrine has absorbed all the energy in the tomb, containing half of the corpse of the troll priest, filling progress (1.5/20). 】

"Half portion?"

Mu You was taken aback, and hurriedly turned around to look.

Sure enough, at this moment, the magic circle covering the grave has disappeared, and it has been retracted into the coffin.

And above the coffin, the second skull at the bottom has already lit up with purple light, but only one eye is shining, and the other eye is still dim.

"what's the situation?"

Mu You hurriedly approached the grave, and carefully looked at the engravings on the nearby stone tablet.

The owner of this tomb used to be a priest of a certain troll tribe. The status of a priest must be considered a high-level troll, otherwise it would be impossible to condense a purple skull.

It wasn't until he saw the time of death marked on the epitaph that he finally understood: the troll died too long ago, more than two thousand years ago, which caused a lot of energy that could be extracted from the corpse to pass away and absorb all of it. Going up, it is only enough to fill half of the pit of the coffin.

Seeing the cause and effect, Mu You cursed inwardly, what a fool, the energy of the corpse can still be released, don't tell me sooner!

With this kind of setting, the twenty high-level tombs he found are not enough to fill this coffin...

But at this time, Mu You had no better way, the action had already started, and there was no chance to stop, so he could only continue.

Before leaving, Mu You took care of the tomb that had been disturbed by the magic circle, trying to smooth out the traces of the tomb being touched as much as possible.

This kind of thing is absolutely impossible for game characters, but due to time constraints, it is impossible for Mu You to restore it to the same size, so he can only delay the time of being discovered as much as possible.

With the experience of the first extraction, the next step will be much smoother.

Still using the old method, Mu You quickly rushed to the scene of the second tomb, and started to absorb again.

This time the tomb was finally a normal chief, and the time of death was within a thousand years, and the energy of the corpse was still well preserved.

Four minutes later, the second tomb was successfully absorbed.

The reason why it took two minutes longer was because a troll guard came over halfway, so Mu You had to put away the coffin and hide behind the grave, wasting some time playing hide-and-seek.

After absorbing it, Mu You smoothed out the traces as usual and rushed to the third tomb.

Soon, the third seat...

The fourth...

Block five...

...

As Mu You's proficiency became higher and higher, the absorption of the next few tombs also proceeded more smoothly.

When he finished absorbing the ninth tomb, he suddenly heard a violent roar from a distance.

This roar seemed to trigger a chain reaction, which soon triggered more roars of trolls, all of which were filled with extreme anger.

Mu You immediately knew that this must be a tomb dug earlier that was discovered by the troll.

"Hurry up!"

Mu You immediately gave up the act of covering up the tomb, and went straight to the tenth tomb. Anyway, it had already been discovered, and it would be a waste of time to cover up any more, so he simply spent all his time on the tomb robbery.

...

[You absorbed the corpse of the totem summoner, progress 8/20...]

...

[You absorbed the corpse of the great troll witch doctor, progress 8.5/20...]

...

[You absorbed the corpse of the troll chief, progress 9.5/20...]

...

The next absorption really became more difficult.

As more and more tombs were discovered, the anger value of the trolls also rose sharply, and the noise quickly spread from a small area to the surroundings. Gradually, the entire troll crypt began to riot.

All the troll guards started running wildly, trying to find this daring intruder. The roars of ghosts and trolls echoed throughout the tunnel space.

The madness of these trolls has indeed caused great obstacles to Mu You's actions.

However, he still insisted on continuing to search for the tomb according to the original plan.

As the scheduled tombs were sucked up one by one, Mu You finally solved eighteen tombs in a row, leaving only the last one.

At this time, only fourteen skulls lit up under the troll coffin.

Including the tomb that was absorbed in the previous game, out of the nineteen tombs that have been absorbed, only nine are complete, and the remaining ten are all incomplete. The incomplete rate is ridiculously high.

"The last one, I hope it's a complete one..."

Mu You let out a sigh of relief, the twenty tombs would be able to fill up three-quarters of them at most, which he hadn't thought of beforehand.

After leaving this trip, the troll will definitely greatly strengthen the guards on the tomb, and he will definitely have no chance to sneak in to rob the tomb.

Afterwards, the elves will directly flatten this tomb. The first thing they will do at that time must be to clean up the tombs of those high-ranking trolls who still have their bones. That is to say, once he goes out, Mu You will no longer have the chance to absorb the corpse of the high-level troll.

But he was a bit reluctant to ask Mu You to fill it with ordinary troll corpses to supplement it. Filling ordinary corpses will reduce the quality of the urn. Moreover, it is easy to mix in ashes, but it is difficult to separate them out. .

Mu You shook his head, let's wait until later to see if there is a chance to find other troll burial places.

So many trolls have died in history, it is impossible to bury them all in this place...

At this time, the riot in the entire crypt had reached its peak.

Countless trolls repeatedly patrolled the tunnel like carnival, and there was hardly a quiet place in the entire tomb.

And Mu You was already struggling at this time, trolls kept sticking to his body and skipping.

He was almost surviving in the cracks, moving forward bit by bit with difficulty. If he hadn't had a pocket watch to provide him with enough error tolerance, Mu You would have died hundreds of times by now.

For the last part of the journey, Mu You tossed and tossed for half an hour before finally arriving.

Now this defensive strength has almost reached the limit of his stealth, and if he upgrades again, he will be completely unable to move.

So Mu You had already made up his mind to retreat after absorbing the last one.

As a result, when he came to the last cemetery to take a look, he was dumbfounded.

At this moment, in front of the tomb located in the corner, there is actually a troll standing upright on the spot, it seems that he is guarding the tomb.

This is a troll axeman with a blue face and fangs. Unlike the generally thin and thin troll warriors, this troll is covered with strong muscles and has blood tattoos all over its body. With two short spears.

[Level 15 Troll Berserker: Attack Power 100-135, Health Points 9500, Mana Points 500, Possessing Abilities: Soul Purification, Spear Throwing, Berserker Bloodline...]

Level 15, the level is not too high, judging by the name, he is not a high-level troll, just an ordinary troll warrior, but this is the first time Muyou has encountered someone who guards a cemetery without moving. Could it be that he is fishing?

The other trolls have already become ants on the hot pot outside, so you just fish here, are you embarrassed?

Mu You had no choice but to hide himself and wait at the side, only hoping that this guy could leave quickly after resting enough, so as not to delay him from robbing the tomb.

However, after waiting for ten minutes, the troll still stood motionless, like a wax figure.

During this period, there were repeated alarms outside, and even a few trolls came nearby, shouting something to it, as if to let it go out to patrol together, but they were all ignored by the other party.

Now Mu You understood a little bit, this guy didn't seem to be fishing, but was seriously guarding the tomb behind him.

Mu You had a strange expression on his face. Aren't trolls all wild monsters? How could an ordinary soldier behave so rationally?

But the more it was like this, the more interested Mu You was: this tomb, is it possible that some important person among the trolls is buried?

To be guarded by such a loyal and rational troll, none of the tribal chiefs in the tomb had such treatment.
