This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous

[The girl in the distance has an outstanding appearance and a tall figure. Her waist-length black hair is tied into a pair of ponytails with two red headbands. Apart from the standard uniform, short skirt and knee socks of the Academy of Magic, she is a Dressed in a bright red coat, she looks dignified and elegant... The only thing that is a bit out of place with this dignifiedness is the pair of plush slippers on her feet. 】

[Obviously, the girl came here in a hurry, and she didn't have time to change her boots. 】

[Unknown character (level 18), strength: 95, agility: 39, intelligence: 92, constitution: 32, health: 8200, mana: 10200, luck: -2. 】

"Level 18..."

Mu You looked at the information fed back by the Omniscient Crystal and was slightly speechless.

The opponent's level is actually not surprising, but the attributes are a bit outrageous.

The standard attribute at level 18 should be 157 points, but the opponent's total attributes are as high as 258 points!

In other words, the opponent has more than one hundred extra attributes, which are obtained through foreign objects and equipment...

Moreover, as a magician, what are you going to do if your power is higher than your intelligence?

Mu You tried to observe the opponent's attire, but unfortunately all the equipment seemed to be hidden by the uniform, but he also knew that there must be a lot of top-quality equipment nearby.

[After you confirmed that there was no one else around, you chose to walk out of the embankment and approached the girl. 】

【The girl noticed someone approaching, and immediately raised her wand to point it at you, and asked with a vigilant face if you were the one who delivered the letter last night. 】

【You nodded to admit that you didn't have any malicious intentions, and explained the situation of the familiar cat to the other party. 】

[Knowing that you are actually a fool, and her cat has wandered into the land of oblivion, the other party becomes vigilant again. 】

【After some hesitation, the other party didn't directly believe your words, but asked you to produce evidence to prove that her familiar is indeed in your hands. 】

"Evidence..."

Mu You was not surprised. He took out the photo crystal from the game, went back to the room and faced Coke who was still sleeping on the bed, and recorded a scene from all directions and from multiple angles. Then he went to the gate and recorded a scene of heavy traffic outside the gate, proving that This is indeed a forgotten place, so I sent the shadow crystal back to the game.

[You hand over the picture crystal to the other party. 】

[After checking, the girl frowned, and looked at you with more vigilance. 】

[The girl suddenly said bluntly that you are a liar, this is not her cat at all! 】

"Oh hoo!"

Mu You's eyelids twitched, and the most worrying thing happened: Coke's owner really didn't know her cat!

In fact, Mu You can completely understand this. Even if he were to identify the fat house cat on the bed and the slender and healthy short-haired cat at the beginning, he would definitely not believe that it was the same cat.

"Cola!"

He yelled upstairs, but Coke didn't respond.

Mu You turned his head and pressed the cat food dispenser, Coke's ears moved in his sleep, and within two seconds he rushed downstairs, preparing to cook, but when he ran to the automatic feeder, he found that the food bowl was empty, and he couldn't help but wonder Looking at Mu You: Where's my meal?

Mu You threw the picture crystal to it: "Your master doesn't know you anymore, so find a way to recognize her!"

"Meow?"

Coke could not believe it when he heard the words, and hurriedly hugged the crystal and cried: "Master, it's me, I'm Ke... No, I'm a Sphinx, my cutie who has been with you for seven years, how could you You don't know me anymore, but I miss you every day..."

Coke wailed at the camera, but unfortunately, the photo-recording crystal could only leave images and normal meowing sounds, and telepathy could not pass through. Coke hurriedly acted cutely at the camera, posing in poses that she used to act like a spoiled child to her owner.

After recording for two minutes, Mu You put away the crystal and sent it back to the game.

【You re-give the photo crystal to the girl. 】

【The girl fell into a long silence after reading it...】

Mu You is now very worried that the other party will suddenly say something like 'I don't want the cat, you can tear up the ticket'.

Fortunately, no, this lady from another world still has a sense of responsibility.

【After a while, the girl sighed and asked if you could bring the Sphinx here. 】

Of course there is a way, through the door you can go back and forth between the two worlds at any time, but this trouble-free method has huge side effects, once sent back, Coke basically has no ability to increase lifespan.

Mu You glanced at Coke, and the all-knowing crystal showed that its lifespan was still more than 50 years old, but it's hard to say how much of these 50 years is the original lifespan. You must know that the lifespan of the cat itself is not long.

Then Mu You typed and truthfully informed the other party of the situation.

To his surprise, the other party actually had a way.

[The girl nodded to indicate that there is no problem. Since the sphinx was originally a creature of the astral world, as long as it is sent back, she has a family-passed secret method of space, which can reverse the plane characteristics of the creature back to the original location, so as to get rid of it. The influence of the 'gate'...]

The girl came with a description that seemed quite tall, but Mu You said that she didn't understand it at all.

However, as the owner, he said that there is a way, so Mu You didn't care about it, and made an appointment with the other party to bring the cat to her the next time he entered the door.

【You and the girl have agreed on handing over the pet. The girl is also a respectable noble daughter in the Star Spirit Realm. Naturally, she will not let you work in vain. Ask what you want in return, and she will try her best to help you achieve it. 】

It's not that Mu You raises Coke for anything in return, but he does have something to ask the other party for help now.

After thinking for a while, Mu You entered two requirements in the game.

First, when he enters the door in a few days, borrow the other party's fire spirit.

Second, help him get an admission certificate from Red Rose Academy.

Borrowing the fire spirit is of course to refine some high-level potions that require the fire spirit, such as the cleaning potion that Virgo asked him to refine before.

The entrance certificate is to enter the Magic Academy to study magic openly, and by the way, find a chance to see where the library Jing Mo Niang told him is.

[The girl was a little surprised when she heard your request. The only one who wants to use the fire spirit is a potion master. She can't believe that you are also a potion master. 】

【After thinking for a moment, the girl agreed to your request. However, now that the School of Magic has passed the enrollment period, with her relationship, I can only apply for the qualification of an off-campus auditor for you. You can enter the school to attend lectures, but you are not considered a formal student and cannot enjoy the treatment of a normal school student. . 】

Mu You has no objection to this, but it is better to say that this is more suitable for him, no one is in control, he can freely choose which magic class to attend, and he does not have to go through the admission process from the beginning.

[After the girl finished speaking, she hurriedly left the reservoir, just wait for her good news. 】

It takes time to apply for admission qualifications. After the owner of Coke left, Mu You also manipulated the characters back to Four Leaf Street, and recovered the scout beetle released last night.

[The scouting beetle has returned to your hands, and reported to you the valuable intelligence it overheard last night. 】

【At yesterday's palace banquet, the reconstruction of the ruins in the south of the city was put on the agenda...】

[It is rumored that the royal family of the Laner Empire intends to auction off the land in the southern area of ​​the imperial capital...]

[The secrets of the Eli family were exposed, and insiders revealed that the patriarch of the Eli family had thirteen illegitimate children...]

[Ivy League College's "Underage Wizards" special rectification campaign for bad behavior officially launched...]

...

What the beetle eavesdropped on was basically gossip and gossip. There were more than 20 pieces in total. Mu You patiently read them one by one, but he found one that he was really interested in.

[Two churchgoers met secretly outside the back wall of the Broken Cup Bar on Four Leaf Street in the early morning, and revealed a secret during the conversation: after the Wizards Association was expelled from the imperial capital, the 'Black Magic Club', which was originally suppressed and hunted by wizards 'reappeared, and agreed to start at eight o'clock in the morning, in the underground church near the abandoned cemetery in the south of the city, to hold a gathering of black wizards. At that time, senior black wizards will come to teach black magic to the members. 】

"The Dark Arts Club?"

Mu You was a little surprised. The Imperial Capital was the headquarters of the Wizarding Association before. Under the eyes of the Wizarding Association, there is actually a secret organization that studies black magic lurking. It is amazing.

According to the text, this organization was previously suppressed by the Wizarding Association, and now that the Wizarding Association has been kicked out, this organization that has been suppressed for a long time can finally show up and be active, and it is even entangled in personnel who want to teach black magic...

Mu You was a little interested.

As the descendant of the black wizard leader, the Calamity Witch, he must go to this gathering both emotionally and rationally.

【... You wore an invisibility cloak and traveled all the way to the south of the imperial capital. 】

[After the great battle the day before yesterday, this originally bustling area has become completely devastated, with broken walls and ruins of buildings everywhere. 】

[You searched along the abandoned streets, and soon came to the vicinity of the cemetery. 】

[You found a collapsed church building on the south side of the cemetery, and in front of the dilapidated church gate, two missionaries dressed as church guarded the gate, staring at the surrounding intersections vigilantly. Is it close? 】

"no."

[You choose to hide and observe from a distance. 】

[After a while, you saw a believer wearing church clothes sneaking up to the door of the abandoned church, lifted the sleeve robe, showed the black mark on the arm to the two people at the door, and was let by the two. 】

Mu You glanced at the time, it was 8:25, and the assembly inside should have started.

But don't be in a hurry. Not everyone can enter this meeting. You need church members to enter the door, and you also need internal marks. Even if you force your way in and they just break up and run away, he won't get anything.

After thinking about it, Mu You manipulated the character to leave the place, walked around the abandoned church, and found something else.

[You came to the back door of the abandoned church. 】

[You saw two church members dressed as low-level believers carrying another believer out of the back door. The carried believer was wrapped in a layer of black air. Under the condition, all kinds of weird tumors continued to grow outward. Apparently, he has been infected by black magic and is suffering out of control. 】

[The two believers threw the out-of-control believer into a pit behind the door. 】

【You get closer and find that in the pit, there are already a large number of bone residues that have been corroded and dissolved by black magic. 】

[As for the believer who was just thrown in, the out-of-control phenomenon on the body surface continued, and it became faster and faster, and large monster tumors emerged from his body. It won't be long before he will follow in the footsteps of those who lost control before, his body will be corroded by black magic, and he will completely disappear in the star spirit world. 】

[The two corpse throwers saw that the believers' bodies were beginning to decompose, they swept around, and after confirming that there was no one around, they turned and returned to the church. 】

Gathering at the front door, dumping corpses at the back door?

Looking at these game texts, Mu You immediately remembered the forest spirit he met in the Black Forest.

At that time, Sen Ling told them that it was a church member holding a white cross that interfered with the Black Forest and caused Sen Ling to lose control.

Right now, this incident just happened in front of the church... From this point of view, this 'Dark Magic Club' might have been created by the church personnel who destroyed the Black Forest.

Before the two corpse throwers left, Mu You decisively opened the panel and clicked on the 'extendable chain claw'.

【You threw out the retractable chain claw, hooked the out-of-control person in the pit, and quickly hooked him back to you. Then you dragged the corpse and hid behind a ruin. 】

[At this time, the out-of-control person was completely dead, and the black magic power from his body gradually overflowed, and the body began to gradually disappear under the erosion of the black magic power. 】

[If you use the heart of the forest spirit, you may still have time to stop this erosion. Decontaminate with Sylvan Heart? 】

"Yes."

Absorbing black magic power will increase the pollution of the forest heart, but it doesn't matter for such a corpse, the degree of aggravation is negligible compared to the capacity of the forest heart.

[You take out the heart of the forest spirit. The core of the forest spirit, which has become pitch-black inside, immediately began to function, and black air was sucked out from the inside of the corpse, and all of them poured into the core...]

[The out-of-control symptoms on the surface of the corpse quickly disappeared, and it quickly returned to its normal form. 】

[The pollution level of Forest Heart has increased by 0.0001%, now: 99.8132%. 】

The corners of Mu You's eyes twitched as he watched, absorbing a person's pollution, which only increased the pollution by one millionth.

And Mu You's mission is to reduce the pollution in the Heart of the Forest Spirit by more than 10% within one year...

He was suddenly a little worried about whether this task could be completed within a year.

Mu You shook his head, now is not the time to think about it.

As soon as the pollution was cleared, a new prompt popped up in the game.

[You groped around the corpse and found the skin of the 'Holy Light Cultist'. Do you want to extract it immediately? 】

[Holy Light believers: The lowest-level personnel of the Holy Light Church have extremely devout beliefs in the church, are responsible for handling chores assigned by the church, and accumulate meager contributions in anticipation of a long-term promotion road. When releasing holy light magic, the power is increased by 30%, and the speed of learning holy light magic is accelerated by 40%. 】

It's another low-level skin with no lifespan quests, but it has a fairly good talent, which has a high bonus to holy light magic.

In order to enter the church, this skin must be fused, but the upper limit of skins is only six, and Muyou is already full now.

Vampires, Watchers, Herb Gatherers, and Fortune Tellers, the skins of these four life-spanning tasks cannot be moved, and there will be a chance to enter the academy soon, and the mysterious man's skin can also come in handy.

So after thinking about it, Mu You decided to feed the most useless fisherman's skin to the vampire.

[You will play the fisherman's skin and merge it into the vampire earl's skin. 】

[The fusion is successful, the fisherman's skin has completely disappeared, and your vampire skin has a new talent 'water-based mastery': your moving speed underwater is 30% faster than ordinary people. 】

[The curse is random... The vampire skin has acquired the curse 'Snake Fear': You have an inexplicable fear of snake creatures. When encountering snake monsters, all attributes will be reduced by 1 point. 】

Mu You raised his eyebrows. Since the fisherman's talent is not considered strong, the curse effect randomly produced after fusion will not be that strong. The overall attributes will be lowered a little, and it will only target snake monsters. , this drop is almost negligible.

However, this is still a very uncomfortable curse for Mu You, because his attributes need to be precisely stuck at a ratio of 123, and reducing all attributes by one will definitely destroy the balance of his attributes.

"Backtracking."

Mu You pressed the pocket watch and rolled the curse again.

Sure enough, the next curses were also similar to the first one, with very weak effects. After randomizing more than a dozen times, Mu You finally randomized one that had no negative effect on the battle.

[You have obtained the curse 'big stomach king': your food intake is twice as much as that of ordinary people, and your hunger speed is also twice as fast as others. It is best to keep rations on your body to avoid starvation to death. 】

Eat twice as much as others. This curse is quite painful for the lower-level residents of the astral world, but it is irrelevant to the skin. It is just a little more food cost, as long as it does not affect the battle.

[You have obtained the skin of the Holy Light Cultist. 】

After the fusion was completed, Mu You immediately picked up the cultist's skin, replaced it on the spot, and then controlled the character to go to the front door.

[You are dressed as a believer and wearing thousands of faces. You returned to the main entrance of the abandoned church and showed the marks on your arms to the two missionaries who were guarding the door. 】

[The two missionaries didn't think too much, they recognized your membership in the 'Black Magic Club', asked you to come earlier next time, and then let you enter the church. 】

[Entering the church, you see behind the podium of the church, a priest holding a black cross is preaching black magic. And the rows of benches on the left and right sides below are already full of Holy Light believers who are dressed like you, and everyone is listening carefully. 】

[In addition, on both sides of the church, there are several priests and choir staff standing, vigilantly observing every move of the audience in the church. 】

[You noticed that a believer on the left who was listening to the lecture suddenly trembled all over, faint black air began to emerge from his body, and familiar octopus suckers began to grow on his body surface. Obviously, this person just lost control. 】

[The pastor and choir singer next to him rushed up immediately, suppressed the out-of-control person, released a spell of purification on him, and cooperated with the choir singer's chanting, so that the out-of-control person forcibly fell silent and fell asleep in pain go. 】

[Two believers appeared immediately after, and took the out-of-control person away from the scene. The whole process did not cause any disturbances, and the other believers seemed to have not seen this scene, and they were all intoxicated in the study of black magic. 】

"It's all an assembly line..."

Mu You complained secretly.

Obviously, these people didn't really want to teach black magic, but just used these low-level believers as consumables for some kind of research.

As for what he was researching, Mu You didn't bother to care about it, he was here to gather wool.

Others run the risk of losing control of the dark arts, but he doesn't.

If others dare to teach, he dares to learn.

【You sat down in the empty seat in the last row and started to comprehend the black magic. 】

[The black magic taught by the priest today is: Earth-type low-level black magic 'Giant's Fist'. Because you have the secret technique crystallization, the learning speed of black magic is increased by 100%. 】

[Studying, it is estimated that the comprehension will be completed in 14 hours...]
