Done!
Now that the mission rewards are clear, Mu You will be motivated.
There is no need to go to the fifth floor for the time being.
Mu You controlled the character to return to the fourth floor, delivered the promised KFC to the little fat man, and at the same time handed something to him for safekeeping - the second fragment of the City of Dawn.
He found that if he were to keep the map fragments, there was no place more suitable than this underwater prison!
If others want to get this fragment, they must sneak into the fourth floor, help the little fat man escape from prison, and then grab the fragment from him. As the territory of the Octopus King, the most difficult prison to escape in the world, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to do this. , otherwise big pirates like Dragon Knight Finn would not be helpless.
At the same time, a piece of "two" was deliberately left in order to cause some confusion for the remaining two forces.
After doing this, Mu You returned to the second floor and continued to look for the scarecrow to increase his attack power.
In reality, the most important task at the moment is refining medicine.
Mu You is not sure how much sleeping potion is enough, but he should try to practice as much as possible.
Such batch refining requires a lot of mandrake juice, and the result is that mandrake grass suffered another disaster.
Moreover, the blood drawing this time was much more serious than before. In the past, Mu You could only draw one tube of juice at most, but this time he took four full tubes before stopping.
Even if there is a crazy growth of the recovery body, no change can be seen in its appearance, but such a short-term and severe loss has also made Mandrake's spirit sluggish for a time, and it looks like it has no love for life, and returns to the glass. After leaving the room, he buried himself deeply in the soil and refused to move again, as if he was suffering from depression.
Mu You didn't have time to comfort it. After getting the materials, he immediately started making medicine.
At his current level, this first-level magic potion can already produce rare-level potions stably, and with six bottles of rare-level potions, there is a half chance of producing a bottle of legend.
The synthesis furnace takes four hours, and what is produced is not achieved overnight, but will gradually take shape over the course of four hours, so the result cannot be reset with a pocket watch, and Mu You can only bet on a 50% chance.
Fortunately, I was lucky the first time.
Four hours later, the first bottle of legendary potion was released!
[Dreamless Sleeping Potion (Legendary Level): A super sleeping potion that will cause creatures to fall into an extremely deep sleep after drinking. It has a huge effect. Do not try it easily! 】
The description uses words like "super" and "don't try it easily". I'm afraid the effect of this thing is really terrible. Most people will fall asleep immediately after drinking it...
But to deal with the Octopus King, something of this level is needed to be effective. In short, the deeper the Octopus King falls into a coma, the safer it will be to move around in its body.
Not only that, you need to prepare more of this kind of stuff to avoid it not taking effect long enough.
Mu You spent the next day refining medicine and was busy until late at night.
At 11:30 pm, the elf horn was refreshed. In the game, Mu You teleported out of the prison, found an open space outside, and blew the horn immediately.
[You blew the elf horn. 】
[The Sun Elf Princess Selina Sunshine appears in front of you and issues a task to you. 】
[Surprise attack on White Maple City: White Maple City is a human city located south of the Sunlight Elf territory. It was originally the territory of the Tasino Empire next door. It was abandoned during the war many years ago and turned into a deserted city.
This empty city was originally used as a buffer zone between the Tasino Empire and the Sun Elves, but the city was recently occupied by a group of undead legions.
The arrogant undead continue to expand to the surrounding corroded surface where only the undead can survive, which has seriously threatened the security of the Sun Elf territory. At the same time, the Tasino Empire next door is also ready to use the hands of the undead to invade the Sun Elf tribe. It's obvious.
Selina decided to take the lead, eliminate the undead, capture the city, and re-establish the war barrier!
However, directly sending a large army to sweep away would give the Tasino Empire leverage to take action, so it was necessary to ensure a quick victory while concealing the truth. 】
[Mission content: Escort a Sunlight Elf Array Master, sneak into White Maple City secretly, and set up a teleportation array within 500 meters of the city center to ensure that the Elf Army can reach White Maple City instantly.
Because the undead are very sensitive to the breath of living people, it is required that the number of escorts must not exceed one person, and the level must not exceed level 17. At the same time, because the combat effectiveness and mobility of daylight elves will be greatly reduced at night, this task can only be entrusted to you, who is a fool and has sufficient credibility. 】
[Reward: An optional arcane mage set accessory (epic level). 】
The horn sounded, and the first mission was for the Sun Elf. Following the completion of the familiar pre-mission last time, a more important follow-up mission was indeed released for him this week.
It seems that the sun elves are preparing to attack an undead city. As for the specific intrigues between them and surrounding countries, Mu You is too lazy to care. In short, the task is to escort a sun elf into the undead city, set up a teleportation array, and help the elven armies descend and fight. A blitzkrieg.
The reward is directly given to an optional arcane mage suit, which is equivalent to giving away 20,000 reputation!
You must know that it is relatively difficult to obtain the reputation of the Sunlight Elves. The value of these 20,000 reputations is quite high!
The difficulty of the mission is hard to say, but the rewards are pretty good, but Mu You is not in a hurry to choose, and will look at other missions first.
[As time goes by, you blow the horn again. 】
[The Forest Elf High Priest Riley Piper appears in front of you and issues an urgent mission to you. 】
[Exploring the Undersea Prison: Seven hundred years ago, a group of forest elves traveled to the sea under the leadership of an elder. However, they encountered an accident outside, and there was no news at all. They have not returned yet. Recently, news has spread that the disappearance of the elves that year may be related to the Octopus King in the Evil Sea. 】
[Mission content: Go to the underwater prison to investigate the authenticity of the news about the missing elves. If it is true, try to rescue the surviving elves. 】
[Task reward: Depends on completion. 】
Sure enough, the rumors he spread before worked. The mission of the forest elf has changed. It is no longer the Utopia mission, but an "urgent mission" temporarily assigned to him to investigate the underwater prison.
This task can be completed right now, and it is a task where there will be no store after passing this village, so you need to prioritize it.
Next, Mu You went back a few times.
The result was as expected, the fairies and fairies were still pigeons, and the dark elves were still the original dungeon missions.
After confirming that there was no more suitable task, Mu You did not need to hesitate and directly chose Riley's task.
[You have accepted the mission "Exploring the Undersea Prison". 】
After taking over the task, it was close to early morning.
Mu You teleported to Phoenix City, preparing to go to Sunlight Grove to catch some mana floating dragons.
But at this moment, a friend message suddenly popped up in the game.
[Your friend Edward Jack sent you a private message. 】
"Jack?"
Mu You raised his eyebrows. The 26th was only two or three days away, and the ownership of the nine fragments had all been clarified. At this time, the spare tire gave him news...
Mu You clicked to check.
[Edward Jack: Brother, are you there? 】
[Lamplighter: Yes, what? 】
[Edward Jack: Brother, where are your fragments? Didn't you take action? 】
[Lamplighter: No. 】
[Edward Jack: That's good...I've found a fourth collaborator. Come on, let's get ready to meet up! 】
[Lamplighter: Oh? 】
[Lamplighter: I thought you would abandon me after you found all three fragments. 】
[Edward Jack: What are you talking about? Am I, Jack, such an unloyal person? 】
[Lamplighter: Let me ask, what is your relationship with the Emperor now? 】
Mu You didn't rush to follow his words, but first made some insinuations about the emperor's situation.
Last time, after an encounter outside the Evil Spirit Sea,
I don’t know if there have been any other exchanges between Tianzi and Jack, so I would like to take this opportunity to find out.
[Edward Jack: Emperor? Forget it, we just met him yesterday. We originally went up to negotiate with a friendly attitude. Unexpectedly, the grandson bombarded us without saying a word when we met. Now we have declared war with the emperor! 】
[Edward Jack: Of course, even without this, it would be impossible for us and the Emperor to coexist peacefully, because according to the information I have, the Emperor holds one and nine entrance fragments at the same time. In other words, we want to If you find the entrance, you have to either follow the emperor, or you can only steal the fragments from the emperor! 】
[Edward Jack: In short, there will almost certainly be a battle between us and the emperor! 】
[Edward Jack: By the way, brother, why are you asking this all of a sudden? 】
[Edward Jack: Wait...haven't you already defected to the emperor? 】
[Lamplighter: Don’t worry, not yet. 】
What Mu You returned was not yet, not not, which meant that he did not rule out the possibility of joining forces with the Emperor.
The other party suddenly came to the door at this time, revealing something strange. It is said that he has already obtained three fragments, so he should not need him... So Mu You planned to use this method to deceive the other party's purpose.
[Edward Jack: Man, this is not fun! 】
[Edward Jack: Really, you can join forces with anyone, but you can’t join forces with the Emperor! 】
[Lamplighter: Oh? How to say? 】
[Edward Jack: Well, brother, as a show of sincerity, I will not hide it from you. I also just got the news not long ago: Many people thought that among the nine fragments of each map, only "one or five" "Nine" are valid fragments, and the others are just for making up the numbers, but that's not the case, every fragment has its own value! 】
[Edward Jack: Someone has already collected all nine fragments of the same Sky City. From the deconstructed map, this person came to a conclusion: after entering the Sky City from the two entrances, there are two different places in the city. It is not possible to go straight to the center of the city in a straight line, but you must follow a fixed path and jump along the perimeter. Only after passing the fixed path can you enter the city center. The specific path is two roads that are in the shape of a loop: "One, two, three, six, five," and "Nine, eight, seven, four, five." 】
[Edward Jack: You can connect these two columns of numbers on the nine-square grid to understand the meaning of the route. 】
Mu You drew on the nine-square grid.
1, 2, 3
4, 5, 6
7, 8, 9
12365 is equivalent to taking a paper clip-like route. Similarly, 98745 is the same paper clip route, which is completely symmetrical with the previous one.
In other words, if you want to reach the city center, there are only two fixed routes, and you must cover at least five grids.
[Edward Jack: This is equivalent to a nine-square grid game, and if there is no map for each grid, the difficulty and time will be greatly increased. It is not an exaggeration to say that the time difference between passing through the same section of road with and without debris is more than ten times! 】
[Edward Jack: Now the Emperor already has four fragments of "One Three Six Nine" in his hand. If he gets your "Two" again, his first route will almost be complete! In other words, after entering the city, he will reach the city center unimpeded! 】
[Edward Jack: In addition, the two entrance locations are in his hands. When the city entrance opens, the emperor will be able to drive straight in. Even if we can track the entrance location, after entering the entrance, we will not be qualified to fight with him at all. The other party is racing, and they will leave us behind and go straight to the center of the city to take the position of city lord. 】
[Edward Jack: So, brother, your fragments must not fall into the hands of the emperor! 】
"So that's it..."
Mu You understood when he saw this. No wonder the other party came to the door specially at this time, not to take him a share of the pie, but to ensure that he did not fall to the emperor.
By the way, through Jack's words, Mu You finally clarified the current distribution of fragments.
In the emperor's hand: one, three, six, nine.
In Jack's hand: four, seven, eight.
In his own hand: two and five.
From this point of view, there is actually no conflict between him and Jack, because all the "one-three-six" he needs are in the hands of the emperor.
But at the same time, Jack's three fragments have zero effect on him, and it is useless even if the fragments are combined.
[Lamplighter: Don’t worry, I will not join forces with the Emperor. 】
[Edward Jack: Great! 】
[Edward Jack: Brother, tell us your position quickly, and let’s quickly sign a cooperation agreement. It’s a formal one, and we won’t cheat each other! 】
[Lamplighter: OK. 】
[Lamplighter: There is just a little problem. 】
[Edward Jack: What? 】
[Lamplighter: I am now being held on the fourth floor of the underwater prison. If you want to find me, I’m afraid you have to visit the prison on the fourth floor first...]
[Edward Jack:? ? ? 】
[Edward Jack: Dude, your joke is not funny at all! 】
[Lamplighter: No kidding, I’m really on the fourth floor. 】
[Lamplighter: My fragments are here too. If you don’t believe me, you can take one of the fragments and walk around near the entrance of the underwater prison. By looking at the direction of the fragment’s arrow, you can easily determine whether what I said is true or false. 】
After the message was sent, there was no news from the other party.
Mu You estimated that the other party was conducting experiments, so he ignored it and continued to control the character to enter the Sunlight Forest to complete the reputation mission.
After about half an hour, Jack's message finally popped up again.
[Edward Jack: I*, you are cruel! The underwater prison is the Octopus King's private territory. It's also the fourth floor, where serious criminals are located. What on earth did you do? 】
[Lamplighter: Haha, it’s a bit embarrassing to say this. After I came to the Evil Spirit Sea this week, I heard a secret news: the young master of the Dragon Knight Pirates was arrested and imprisoned in the Undersea Prison for making some mistakes. On the fourth floor, the Dragoon Pirates were offering a high price to help him escape from prison, and I just happened to buy a map of the undersea prison from Beaver some time ago. Plus, I had a variety of stealth and escape methods. If I felt like it was a good idea, I would I wanted to try to get the bounty, but the result...]
[Edward Jack: You were arrested? 】
[Lamplighter: I admit, I underestimated the strength of this prison... So now I am locked up on the fourth floor with a sentence of one hundred years. 】
[Edward Jack:...You are really cruel! 】
[Lamplighter: Now I actually have given up hope in this city master competition. I just hope that someone can come and rescue me from prison. 】
[Edward Jack:...]
[Lamplighter: Anyway, I don’t want this fragment anymore. I’m going to post this on the forum later to ask for help. No matter you or anyone else comes to visit the prison, as long as he can find a way to save me from prison, I promise to give him the fragment for free! 】
