Between the two tasks, Mu You would definitely choose the old elf. Because if you choose the latter, you have to send the remains back to the elves to get the reward. In this way, you will definitely not get the elf. It is impossible for the elves to let him take away the remains of an elder. On the contrary, they will let him already have It’s unclear what happened with the Ancient Tree of Knowledge.

Mu You was meditating when he suddenly heard a low and distant sound above his head, like a whale roar coming from the depths of the sea.

Mu You had no reaction, but he noticed that the face of the female elf opposite suddenly changed when she heard the voice.

"What's wrong?"

"No, King Octopus seems to be entering deep sleep early!"

"Deep sleep period?" Mu You was confused.

"The sleep of the Octopus King is divided into two types: light sleep and deep sleep. During the light sleep period, the Octopus King's consciousness has not completely fallen asleep, and the true body will not appear here. I can only regain consciousness during the light sleep period. During the deep sleep period, , the Octopus King will come and take over everyone’s consciousness forcibly.”

After saying that, the elf frowned in confusion: "In the past, I usually fell into deep sleep from the afternoon to evening. Why is it so early today?"

Mu You's heart stirred. Could it be that his previous disconnection and online operations in Octopus King's body made Octopus King aware of the abnormality in his sleep? Is this guy so sensitive?

"If you can really leave at any time, leave immediately. Otherwise, when the Octopus King comes, you will..."

"Just what?"

The elf suddenly paused in the middle of speaking. Mu You looked up and found that the elf's pupils had disappeared and her eyes had turned pure white. In addition, her expression also showed that weird smile again.

"Intruder, confirmed... arrested!"

After the elf said these words clearly, she suddenly rushed towards Muyou.

Of course Mu You chose to accept the challenge this time, because the current elves must have no self-awareness.

However, the power of this female elf was much greater than he imagined. When the two collided, Mu You was actually knocked away.

"boom!"

Mu You was knocked straight out of the door and fell on the corridor outside the room.

When I looked up, in addition to the elves in front of me, figures began to appear one after another in the corridors on both sides. There were elves, humans, and octopuses. They all stared with white eyes and held the most suitable tool as a weapon in their hands. , saying the same words: Intruder, arrest!

"Half an hour..."

Mu You has a headache. The time he and Lin Xue agreed on is actually a little too long. If the time flow rate in the two worlds is equal, it will take a long time for the half hour to arrive. Before that, he has been a target for the creatures here...

Just as he was thinking about it, Mu You suddenly felt that the secret energy deep in his mind had increased. The two crystals turned into three. The extra crystal was Lin Xue's soul crystal.

Mu You suddenly felt reassured.

It seems that after the battle here, there should be some signs showing up in his body on the other side of the earth. Lin Xue was very smart. When he was not sure what was happening on his side, he deliberately used the Death Contract method to transmit energy to confirm whether he needed to terminate his sleep in advance.

If Mu You accepts Lin Xue's crystal energy, it means that he is indeed in a battle and needs to stop early. If he does not accept it, it means that he can continue to stay.

At this time, the figures around him were already rushing towards him quickly. Mu You decisively received the energy, got up and ran away.

After throwing away the female elf and escaping for a while, Mu You found that the figures chasing him around him became more and more dense. It seemed that no matter how hard he ran, these people could find his location at any time.

Moreover, he obviously went in the direction of the exit, but he never saw the exit.

Mu You somewhat understood the mechanism here. It seemed that the path in this castle was not static. It was impossible for him to escape normally.

"Intruder, arrest!"

At this time, a large number of octopus soldiers were chasing him, and they were attacking him with knives and forks.

Mu You moved his hands, and invisible wind blades flew out. The scene suddenly became bloody, and countless broken octopus legs flew up.

Mu You discovered that killing octopuses here does not require experience or lifespan, and the dead octopus will quickly recover on the spot, but the recovered octopus will be smaller than the original size and in a weaker state. many.

It was impossible to kill them all with this kind of killing. Seeing more and more pursuers surrounding them, Mu You directly released the Dark World, and then switched to vampire skin.

The entire castle suddenly became dark, and Mu You's attributes greatly increased under the amplification of the Night King. He easily brought down one of them and successfully broke through the crowd. He then used terrain change to create a passage directly on the wall. , and finally escaped from the castle.

Of course, this was not the end, because there were many enemies waiting for him outside. Octopus soldiers and various humanoid creatures immediately surrounded Mu You.

Mu You took advantage of the time in the dark world to move through the crowd unimpeded. Wind blades and fireballs were continuously shot out of his hands, and he tore a hole in the crowd.

A few seconds later, the scene turned into a situation where Mu You was running ahead alone, followed by a long line of pursuers.

But at this moment, the ground suddenly rumbled and shook, and a huge octopus foot suddenly broke out of the ground, as long as a tower over a hundred meters high.

"Octopus King?"

Mu You's eyelids twitched.

With such a big octopus foot, he could only think of the Octopus King's true form.

And this is only a small part of an octopus's foot exposed to the ground, so how huge must the Octopus King's body be?

Before I had time to think about it, this octopus foot seemed to have vision. After it appeared, it swung in an arc in the air. The air flow it raised blew away countless octopus soldiers around it, and many of them exploded into blood in the strong wind. group.

However, the Octopus King didn't care about the life and death of these soldiers at all. He swung his tentacles towards the ground. The direction of the swipes was exactly the direction in which Mu You escaped.

This octopus foot was so big, but it moved quite nimbly. Mu You hurriedly changed direction, but the octopus foot followed him like a shadow, getting closer and closer.

Along the road, countless octopus pursuers were crushed to death. The Octopus King didn't care. His only target was Mu You, the intruder.

After a few seconds, the octopus foot finally caught up with Mu You, its pointed head twitched, and it hit Mu You hard.

At this time, Mu You had no room to hide and was hit by the huge tentacle.

But just when it was about to hit, a dense crackle of electric sparks sounded, and an electric arc sword more than ten meters long suddenly appeared, cutting a gap in the foot of the octopus that blocked the sky and the sun.

Mu You jumped out of the gap and continued to run away.

Because of the interference of this octopus foot, there were far fewer pursuers around.

At this time, there was another more intense vibration on the ground in the space.

Mu You looked back and saw that the castle in the distance was rising from the ground. To be more precise, the castle was lifted up by the head of an octopus as huge as a mountain.

What appeared immediately after it was an octopus body nearly a kilometer long, and seven octopus legs connected below.

In just a few seconds, an octopus as big as a mountain appeared in this space completely, and the originally vast garden space suddenly became a little crowded.

This is the first time that Mu You has seen the true form of the Octopus King. The octopus's skin is cyan, and its outer skin is covered with circles of strange lines. Its eight claws are squirming, lightly supporting its huge body, and a blue eye emerges from The Octopus King opened his head and stared at Mu You below, condescendingly, as if a god was looking at an ant.

At this moment, Mu You felt that his body was stagnant and it became difficult to move. At the same time, an extremely unfamiliar and wild aura surged into his heart.

This is a very strange feeling. The most terrifying thing Mu You has ever felt before is the God of Death summoned by Lin Xue's scythe. When the God of Death appears, it will bring an unspeakable sense of despair and fear. Even if its target is not yourself.

But the aura of the huge creature in front of him gave Mu You not only fear, but also a sense of strangeness, as if this thing was not a creature born from the two planes he was familiar with.

This feeling passed away in a flash, and Mu You had no time to appreciate it carefully.

The next moment, his body suddenly twisted and disappeared.

Mu You felt the light turn, and he appeared on a thick and dark monster flesh wall. There were a large number of umbilical cord-like tubes attached to his body. He was bound and lying on the flesh wall, with half of his body already sunk into the mucous membrane. .

And this scene also disappeared in a flash.

The next moment, Mu You felt his consciousness sink. He was pulled into a dark and deep seabed. He had no boundaries, his body was heavy, and he couldn't use any force. He could only float passively in the sea water.

Until a certain moment, he suddenly heard a familiar shout.

"Muyou..."

"Muyou..."



It was Ye Rumeng's voice.

Only then did Mu You feel that his body began to rise gradually, and it was getting faster and faster.

Tens of seconds later, as his whole body felt relaxed, Mu You finally surfaced.

At this time, in the lock cylinder space, lying on the grass, he also opened his eyes at the same time.

"Muyou..."

"Muyou, you finally woke up!"

The first thing that sounded in his ears was the surprised voice of the little girl. He turned around and saw Ye Rumeng and Lin Xue looking at him with concern.

"Finally woke up? Have I slept for a long time?" Mu You looked at the two of them strangely.

"It's been an hour since I turned off my phone..." Lin Xue said.

"I'm sorry Mu You, I thought I could wake you up immediately, but the distance is too far and I can't find you..." Ye Rumeng said apologetically.

"The distance is too far... In other words, if the sleeping place is very close to the subject of the dream, you can wake the other party immediately, right?" Mu You asked.

"Ah?" the little girl asked in a single word, with a confused look on her face.

"never mind……"

Mu You shook his head. This problem was too complicated, and the little girl probably didn't even know it herself. But since the little girl has the ability to forcibly awaken others, you can take her to the Octopus King next week and ask her to help awaken those elves. Otherwise, even if Mu You saves them, it will only be equivalent to saving a group of vegetative people.

As for how to ensure not to alert the Octopus King...

Since this big guy is so sensitive, we can only use some medicine to keep it in a deep sleep state.

And for this kind of giant monster, ordinary sleeping potions may not be useful, and more advanced ones are needed, such as... legendary potions!

This is something that Mu You never dared to think about before. Now, with the repair of the synthesis furnace, legendary potions have become readily available, especially the Dreamless Sleeping Potion, which is a first-level magic potion. Mu You can now steadily refine rare-level potions. There is no shortage of materials at hand, and there is no big problem in making a batch of legendary sleeping potions in a few days.

After coming back to his senses, Mu You took back the phone from Lin Xue and hurriedly turned it on and went online. He first transferred the character out of the big octopus' body.

[You appear in a slimy wall of flesh. 】

[Umbilical cords grow from the flesh wall under your feet, winding towards you...]

[You used Phantom Thief Mask, and you switched places with the nearest scapegoat clone. 】

[You are back in the cave on the fourth level...]

The successful return meant that the Octopus King only felt something strange in his body, but did not know the specific location, otherwise he would have already taken action against his game character.

After returning to the cave, Mu You immediately went to find the remnant soul of the old elf.

[You return to the third floor along the cave passage and come to the mushroom tree in the center of the cave. 】

[In the glass bottle, the old soul has been waiting for a long time. When he sees you returning from the fifth floor, he can’t wait to ask you what you saw. 】

【your choice……】

[Tell the truth], [White lies]

The two options represent the previous branch task of choosing one of the two.

"Tell it like it is."

[You chose to tell the truth. 】

[You tell Remnant Soul that there are still many of his clan members alive on the fifth floor. 】

[Remnant Soul was extremely surprised after hearing this, but then he was stunned by your subsequent explanation. 】

[Harrington did not expect that the environment on the fifth floor would become so bad now, and it would be even more difficult to rescue his people. 】

[Harrington asked you carefully, are there any other tribesmen who can save him? your choice……】

[You indicated that you can rescue, but because you also need to take a lot of risks during the rescue, you hope that the conditions for the other party's reward can be changed. 】

[Harrington doesn't mind giving you more reward, but he only has one token on him that is considered valuable. Ask you what else you need. If the rescue is successful, he can try to apply to the elves. 】

The input box popped up. Mu You thought for a while and decided to tell the other party directly about the ancient tree of knowledge. After all, merging with the ancient tree requires the other party to voluntarily do it, and there is no point in hiding it.

[You tell the other party that you have an ancient tree of knowledge that has lost its vitality in your hand, and you need an elf to bring it back to life...]

[Harrington understood what you meant and fell silent. 】

[The ancient tree of knowledge is a sacred object of the elves and will not be spread easily. Harrington understands that the ancient tree in your hand was definitely not obtained through normal means. But in the face of the lives of more than sixty tribesmen, he was not qualified to negotiate conditions. 】

[Harrington will eventually agree to your conditions, but he also has one request: I hope you can take care of the Ancient Tree of Knowledge as a real life, not a money-making tool. 】

Sure enough, after the showdown, the old elf did not refuse.

Mu You naturally agreed to the old elf's request, and a new prompt popped up immediately.

[The optional mission 'Elven Mellie's Request' disappears. 】

[Hidden mission 'Harrington Hugh's Last Wish' mission rewards have been changed. 】

[After rescuing all the trapped people, you will receive 6700 forest elf reputation points, Elder Token*1, and Harrington Xiu will voluntarily transform into an elf and become one of your followers. 】
