[You have arrived at the Forest of Elves. 】
[Sixty-seven skinny elves walk out of your backpack. 】
[You led the weak elves into the forest, like refugees returning home from abroad. 】
[In the surrounding treehouses, elves are coming out one after another, looking at you in surprise and confusion, looking a little at a loss...]
After communicating with Jiuyou, Mu You returned to the game and returned to the forest with the elves he had just rescued, preparing to come here to receive rewards.
These elves may have been separated from society for too long and have lost the ability to communicate. Now they don't dare to come forward to say hello when they see people of the same clan, and they all huddle behind him and dare not say a word.
Fortunately, the information transmission on the Elf side was relatively good. Not long after the group entered the forest, the person in charge took the initiative to show up.
[Piper Riley appears in front of you. 】
[Seeing the many skinny compatriots behind you, Riley hurriedly summoned a medical team and took dozens of clan members for treatment one after another...]
[After everyone is settled, Riley comes back to you and asks you what happened? your choice……】
This is the time to prepare the rewards. The rescue process must be described clearly, but the matter of the elf elder needs to be reserved. Otherwise, the elves will know that he took away an elf in the form of an elder, even if they don't ask for him to come back. It will definitely lower the rating. Remember in one second://xbiqu
[You chose to tell the truth, but you concealed the ending of the elf elder Harrington. You only said that he felt ashamed of his people and did not want to come back, so he chose to be buried in an undersea prison. 】
[You show Riley Elder Harrington's token as evidence. 】
[You notice Riley looking at you suspiciously, she seems to feel that you are hiding something...]
[Fortunately, Riley did not question your statement face to face. After all, the fact that you took the risk to save dozens of their compatriots is true. 】
[After a brief pause, Riley decided to reward you. 】
[You obtained the 'Forest Prophet's Wand' (purple). 】
[You have obtained a room in the 'Elders' Courtyard' and been promoted to an 'foreign elder' by Riley. Your status as a 'peripheral member of the Ranger Force' is automatically lifted. 】
[You have gained the allegiance of the 'Warrior Shadow Wolf'. 】
"Um?"
Mu You was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that giving him a piece of purple equipment would be good enough, but he didn't expect that two prompts would pop up in succession.
Mu You clicked to view them one by one.
[Forest Prophet's Wand: According to legend, this wand is carefully crafted from the remains of dead wood spirits. When holding this wand, the wood talent will be increased by 4 points, and the power of wood spells will be increased by 40%. It comes with the spell 'Tree Making': a tree can be created immediately within three meters of the body, with no land limit and no cooling time. The created tree will automatically disappear after one minute. 】
Mu You was delighted when he saw it, it turned out to be a wand made by Kodama!
This wand is very practical for him, because the wood element is one of his crystallized elements, and his original wood element talent is only four points. With this wand in hand, he can increase it to eight points in one go. The efficiency of learning wood magic will be greatly improved!
And the spell that comes with the staff is also good, it can create a tree on the spot, and there is no cooling down! This spell is actually a prerequisite spell specially prepared for wood mages, because most of the wood spells require trees and other plants as prerequisites, such as summoning tree men, wooden clones, etc., in places with no vegetation at all. , cannot be released.
With this wand, you can create trees anytime and anywhere to coordinate with the casting of other wood spells.
The first reward was very good, and Mu You continued to look forward to it.
The second reward is the 'Elders' Courtyard' and 'Foreign Elders'.
Needless to say, the courtyard was equivalent to giving him a private property. The key point was the identity of the foreign elder behind him.
[Foreign Elder: A special identity that forest elves occasionally give to foreigners who have made great contributions to them. People with this status will be treated as elders by other elves and will be regarded as internal members of the elves. They will enjoy the same rights as the elves and automatically gain 500 reputation points every day. 】
Mu You quickly read the detailed description, but found that the permissions had not changed much from before. One of the most important changes was that he was now counted as a member of the Elf clan and could enter the training hall and train many things that could not be unlocked before. ability.
Mu You has heard Xiaoya say a lot about this before. For the forest elves, the main things that can be learned are various beast-taming talents and wood-type talents, and these two aspects happen to be the types that Mu You is better at. It’s definitely not a waste to train more abilities.
After coming back to his senses, the next step is the last one: the allegiance of the warrior shadow wolf.
[Warrior Shadow Wolf: A brave and skilled female elf hunter, level 23, who is good at archery and scimitar, and has unique experience in the use of wind elements. 】
[The warrior shadow wolf has sworn loyalty to you for life, and will always follow you and be responsible for protecting your safety, but you also need to bear her daily consumption. The daily life span is automatically reduced by 3 years, and you need to be responsible for her daily food. Accommodation (please note that Shadow Wolf eats a slightly larger amount of food). 】
"Depend on!"
Mu You was stunned. Did Riley think that his level was too low and specially arranged a bodyguard for him?
The price for being a bodyguard up to level 23 is that he has to spend three years of his life every day to support her...
If this bill is calculated in terms of value, it is definitely worth it. A level 23 warrior can now run rampant on the earth, and he is also a permanent loyal follower. In the future, he can be trained with confidence. With him as a potion master, he can be raised to level 25. There will be no bottlenecks in potions, and sooner or later he will be able to reach the legendary level.
As for the daily consumption of three years, this is really not a problem for Mu You now. His daily city lord salary alone includes 50 years of fixed lifespan.
The only thing that confused him a little was the line 'Please note that Shadow Wolf eats a little too much'. What is the amount of food that requires special parentheses?
I couldn't figure it out for the moment, and Mu You didn't have time to study it carefully. Anyway, it must be a good thing to have such a high-level bodyguard.
I looked at the time and worked hard. It was already ten o'clock in the evening, today was Wednesday, and it was soon time for the secret meeting.
Mu You temporarily went offline and quickly made a few cards.
When twelve o'clock arrived, Mu You and his clone stepped into the portal on time.
The light circulated, and Mu You appeared again in the simple and majestic hall.
First, he turned around and looked around. There were twelve people there, not bad.
In this meeting, everyone's mood was obviously different, and it was much more relaxed than the previous ones.
After all, just one day ago, the Lord of Dawn City had just been confirmed, and as expected, it fell on Aries, and they all followed suit and got into higher-level positions, earning a high salary every day.
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief, and finally Libra spoke on behalf of everyone: "Congratulations, arbiter, the divine right of kings is indeed no match for you."
"When I received the news that I had killed the Emperor, I knew it was safe." Scorpio smiled.
At that time, several people had turned on the remote support of the Death Contract. The moment the emperor was killed, everyone received the notification.
"Haha, what threat can the little emperor pose? If the boss takes action himself, he will be killed in minutes!" the lion laughed.
Mu You smiled bitterly when he heard the crowd's admiration. Judging from the results, he indeed suppressed the other competitors alone and came out on top. Coupled with his legendary reputation, it would be easy for outsiders to exaggerate this battle. He believed that his strength far exceeded the divine right of kings.
However, in reality it is not that simple. The competition among city lords is far more intense than ordinary people imagine. His battle is also full of dangers, full of opportunities and coincidences. If something goes wrong in some aspects along the way, the final result will be really terrible. It's hard to tell.
"But so to speak, is there really a time limit for the opening of Sky City?" Capricorn looked at Muyou and asked.
He and Libra hold two Twilight City fragments, and they are preparing to fight for them next. They are currently actively preparing for the war, and are relatively sensitive to the issue of fighting for Sky City.
Previously, the virgin provided information similar to a prophecy: the city of fools will rise at dawn and end in the lightless night. At that time, they analyzed that it might be related to the opening time of Sky City, and the appearance time of Dawn City yesterday seemed to prove this point.
"Yes."
Mu You nodded and did not hide anything. He directly informed everyone: "The inheritance crystal of Dawn City will appear on time at four o'clock local time. According to this rule, the time of each subsequent city should be two hours later than the previous one. ...Of course, it is also possible that the birth time is directly determined by the name of the city. For example, dawn and dawn are the time period from five o'clock to seven o'clock in the meaning of the word. For the specifics, we just need to wait and see the birth time of the next few cities. Time will make it clear.”
This rule is undoubtedly very important, and everyone secretly notes it.
"I just received news from the meeting when I came here before. I heard that the entrance to Dawn seems to have been opened last night, and the location seems to be in the Qingyan Desert area..." At this time, Cancer took the initiative to provide a piece of information.
"Qingyan Desert? That place seems to be near the Corrupt Swamp..." the lion said.
"Yes, there is a time difference of about three or four hours with us. According to the birth time just speculated, after our meeting is over, Dawn City may be born!" Cancer said.
"Damn, so fast?" Lion and others were surprised. The birth of Dawn City took more than ten days, and Dawn City just came out yesterday, and in the blink of an eye another city was about to be born. Such a fast pace made them a little uncomfortable.
"After all, at this stage, the fragments of each city have almost been found, and the locations are almost determined. As soon as the city in front is opened, the city behind will be able to follow immediately, and the speed will only get faster and faster."
Libra analyzed: "At this rate, I'm afraid it won't take half a month before all the sky cities will be born."
"Holy crap! Boss, are there any other rules?" The lion hurriedly asked Mu You for advice.
The Burning Sun City he wants to compete for is the sixth one in sequence. According to the current rule of one city a day, he only has about three days to prepare. This is like telling you that the college entrance examination will be in three days, but you just started reviewing today, and your sense of urgency is instantly heightened.
Libra and Capricorn immediately pricked up their ears.
"There are a lot of details. I'll sort them out for you later."
Mu You glanced at the three of them, and then looked at the others: "What about you, do you still want to fight for other sky cities?"
Mu You asked around, but everyone shook their heads, indicating that they had no plans in this regard.
"Is there only the scorching sun and twilight..."
Mu You felt a pity in her heart. The archer was still preparing to fight for the city, but that was the Ice Emperor's needs, not her own.
In this way, including Li Ming and Yong Ye, whom he plans to fight for next, there are only four city lords that their association can potentially obtain.
Of course, this is actually a lot. One organization has captured four city lords, which is enough to shock the whole world!
"By the way, boss, there is also this thing, from Yongye City..."
At this time, the lion took out a map fragment and handed it to Mu You.
This is the fragment of Eternal Night City that Muyou received last week in exchange for giving the fragment of the blazing sun that little Loli got to the lion.
Mu You took it and looked at the number first.
"No. 4..."
"What about it, boss? Isn't it suitable?" The lion asked a little uneasily, "How about I try to change it?"
"No, it's fine."
Mu You shook his head and smiled. Number 4 was actually a good result for him. After all, the reward for his mission in the Undercity was Number 9 from Eternal Night City, which happened to be on the same route as Number 4. This fragment could at least be used.
"Oh, that's good." The lion breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well……"
Taurus, who had been watching the movie silently with headphones on since entering, suddenly let out a sigh, attracting everyone's attention.
At this time, Jin Niu looked at Mu You and said thoughtfully: "It was you who opened the newly born city in the sky?"
"Yeah, what?" Mu You was also a little puzzled. Their meetings in the past two weeks had only discussed matters about Sky City. The Abyss boss had just reacted now?
"Nothing, just ask." Jinniu shook his head, put on his headphones and re-entered the world of the film, ignoring them no more.
"..."
Everyone was a little speechless. They were expecting Taurus to have a talk, but in the end they just asked casually.
"Let's... start the meeting too."
Mu You shook his head helplessly and had no choice but to bring the meeting to the point.
Then everyone started the usual card exchange session. Mu You's new card this week was only a Hydralisk Guard. Fortunately, the demand for his previous cards was still high.
After the final exchange, Mu You acquired three new secret techniques: dazzling spell, magic blocking, and blizzard.
Among them, the dazzling spell and magic blocking are both spells that Mu You has already experienced. One of the effects is to create a blinding light, making the enemy enter a blinding state; the other is to block the flow of magic, making the target unable to use magic and props. .
These two spells were of great use in the previous battle with the man in white, especially the magic power blocking, which became the unique method to block the man in white at that time.
As for the blizzard, it is a new high-level black magic created by the virgin, which creates a powerful blizzard and carries out multiple extreme cold shocks to the creatures in the target area. Its power is not weaker than the thunder and earth net, and it also provides freezing and The deceleration effect can basically be regarded as the strongest AOE magic of the ice system.
In addition to the cards, there were also some other transactions, such as the mana floating dragon that Mu You promised last week. At this time, he distributed it to everyone in turn and told them the contract method.
After all the transactions were completed, the time was almost up. Everyone chatted for a while, and the time was completely over.
Black mist filled the hall again, and everyone else disappeared one after another as they said goodbye.
However, just when Mu You was swallowed by the black mist and was about to leave, he suddenly felt his body being pulled by a strange force. Despite the rejection of the black mist, he was still forced to stay in place.
Mu You frowned and looked at Taurus next to him.
At this time, he and Taurus were the only two people left in the hall. Of course, the only one who could do such a thing was the Lord of the Abyss.
"Your sky city, be careful not to fly too high..." Jinniu looked at Mu Youyou.
"Huh?" Mu You was stunned.
"Otherwise, it will cause consequences that you cannot bear..." Taurus said, his voice starting to become a little forced.
"Oh why?"
"The Sky Force... yours... are high in the sky..."
"High in the sky? Is there anything somewhere?" Mu You asked hurriedly.
Taurus shook his head: "You only need to know this...I can't tell you more...this thing, everyone who understands understands it, and those who don't understand can't say more..."
"???"
Mu You had the face of an old man on the subway with his mobile phone at that time.
"Which movie did you learn this from?"
""The latest collection of high-energy clips"..."
"Depend on!"
Mu You was completely speechless. What did her friends show her...
"If you have time, come to the abyss..." Taurus spoke again.
"Huh?" Mu You was stunned.
"Now you... almost have this ability..."
Jinniu's voice became intermittent, and Mu You was completely swallowed by the black mist and disappeared into the hall.
