At the bottom of the post, there is also a picture.

On the table in the picture, there are eight map fragments arranged in a standard octagonal shape, and the arrows on the backs of the eight fragments all point to the center point.

Mu You clicked on the picture and observed it carefully. It was indeed a fragment of the map, and the arrows were pointed in a similar way.

However, does this mean that all eight fragments belong to Yongye City? Mu You expressed his doubts. Otherwise, how could he explain the three eternal night fragments on his body?

There are a total of nine fragments for each city. Eight plus three make eleven fragments. It is impossible for the fragments to be repeated.

Obviously, there must be some fragments of other born cities mixed in to make up the number.

However, since the other party dared to post so blatantly, he should have a lot of Eternal Night fragments in his hands. Even if the remaining six fragments were in the other party's hands, he would not be surprised.

Muyou looked back at the post and found the column of the person who posted it.

Bloody Dawn, Tyrant.

Both names look vaguely familiar.

Muyou searched the forum and found a lot of results immediately.

Bloody Dawn, a top-notch force in a certain South American country, ranks twenty-sixth in the world's power rankings. Looking at its strength alone, it is not particularly outstanding.

However, the area that this South American country is dealing with in the Star Spirit Realm happens to be the Undercity, which is what most people now think is the hidden location of the entrance to Eternal Night City. No wonder they are so confident in taking over Eternal Night City. It turns out that they have occupied all The location is favorable.

This is similar to the situation when Dragon Team Ice King captured Sunset and Dusk. Their entire power is rooted here, and their local operations are deeply rooted. It is impossible for forces from other countries to intervene.

Therefore, the competitors faced by the Dragon Team Ice King at the beginning were almost all other domestic forces, while the foreign forces all had the wisdom to abandon these two cities on their own initiative.

The situation in the Undercity this time is even simpler, because Bloody Dawn is the only first-class organization in their country. It almost dominates the country with one hand and has no competitors at all.

At the same time, the president of this guild, 'Tyrant', is also a player with extremely outstanding personal strength. He is currently level 21 and is one of the few epic level players in the world. In addition, it is said that the tyrant has a very powerful wolf. King Skin, and relying on this skin, he commanded all the aboriginal werewolves in the Undercity and established an underground werewolf tribe. His subordinates also acquired a werewolf skin by brushing each other's shards, and some high-level guild members also had various With an advanced version of the werewolf skin, it would be no exaggeration to call this organization a wolf den.

And this also means that the actual power of Bloody Dawn in the Undercity includes not only their guild itself, but also the entire aboriginal werewolf tribe!

After reading the search results, Mu You understood the source of the opponent's confidence: in other places, the strength of this guild may not be enough to support their competition in Sky City, but in Yongye City, they are the real leader, and there is no other. Player power is comparable to that.

"A local snake..."

Mu You pondered for a moment.

It's a pity that he has no intention of giving up in Yongye City.

Now that he has three fragments in his hand, he is ready to let Lin Xue take the city lord of Yongye City.

Lin Xue has the inheritance of the God of Death, and he also has a level 30 shadow ghost at hand that he can use. Even without the help of the Octopus King this time, these two trump cards alone are enough for them to crush them in terms of strength.

After all, only fools can enter the entrance to Sky City. No matter how many werewolf aborigines the opponent commands, they will not be able to be used in the final competition. As long as they enter the entrance of Eternal Night City, the opponent's actual combat power is still only that of Bloody Dawn itself. those people.

After roughly understanding the opponent's strength, Mu You closed the forum and returned to the game.

After completing today's dungeon dungeons, Mu You took out the Elf Horn.

The Elf Horn was actually refreshed last night, but he was dealing with the Shadow God at the time, and later he was busy dealing with various real-life matters, and he never had time to log into the game, and he didn't get around to it until now.

[You blew the elf horn. 】

[Dark Elf Queen Freyd the Exile appears in front of you and issues a task to you. 】

[The feud of the lightless night: Werewolves and vampires are both an important part of the residents of the Undercity. The feud between the two races can be traced back to an extremely long time. For thousands of years, the two races have been fighting endlessly in the Undercity, and they have harmed each other. mortal enemy.

Due to the laws of the Undercity, the two races can barely maintain superficial peace, but whenever there is a lightless night (that is, a full moon night underground, whenever there is a full moon night on the ground, all the light sources in the Undercity will fail and become a completely dark night), the werewolves will collectively transform, and the strength and perception of the entire group will reach its peak, and this is also a good opportunity for them to hunt vampires.

Therefore, every time there is no light, a bloody battle breaks out between the two races to resolve their old grudges. The two sides will fight to the death in the streets and alleys of the Undercity regardless of the occasion. During the fierce fight between the two sides, It often causes great damage and disturbance to the Undercity itself and other residents. Over the years, the residents of the Undercity have been extremely annoyed.

And now it coincides with the opening of the vampire clan's once-in-a-millennium clan meeting. A large number of vampires from outside the city have poured into the Undercity. At the same time, a new wolf king has been born among the werewolves, leading the scattered werewolf tribes. It can be predicted that during this lightless night, the intensity of the battle between the two sides will reach its peak, and the tolerance of the residents of the Undercity towards the two races will also reach its peak.

As the ruler of the Undercity, Fred could not destroy the "free and open" purpose of the Undercity and expel one party from the city, so he could only entrust the Fool to act secretly. 】

[Task content: Prevent the dispute between the two parties on the next lightless night! Six days later will be the lightless night of this month. You can choose to help either the vampire or the werewolf. You must make the other disappear into the Undercity within a week and permanently solve this hidden trouble for the Undercity. 】

[Task reward: Depends on completion. 】

The horn sounded, and unexpectedly, a brand new mission appeared for the first time.

The mission of the dark elves is to help solve the problem of the old enemies of werewolves and vampires.

Judging from the mission description, the Queen of Darkness has obviously tolerated these two races for a long time and has long wanted to drive one of them out. However, as the lord of a neutral city, she cannot personally favor a certain race and drive them out. Go the other way, so it became a task for him.

As for the method of completing the task, it seems extremely troublesome, but if you think about it carefully, it is not too difficult. It is precisely because of their equal strength that vampires and werewolves can coexist in the Undercity for a long time. Otherwise, if one of them is too strong, the other will have been beaten away long ago.

Therefore, if he wants to complete the task, he only needs to destroy the balance of power between the two parties. He does not need to do the rest. The stronger party will naturally drive away the weaker party.

This mission is relatively new, but what Mu You cares about more than the mission itself is one word in the mission description: lightless night!

"The city of fools will wake up at dawn and end in the lightless night."

This is a prophecy provided by the virgin.

The first half of this prophecy has been fulfilled. Dawn City was born at dawn, and other subsequent sky cities also rose at their corresponding times.

However, Mu You has never understood the meaning of the "lightless night" in the second half of the sentence. He can only follow the rules and guess that Yongye City will be born between 2 and 4 o'clock in the middle of the night.

Of course this can be explained, but it is a bit far-fetched after all. After all, dawn is a certain period of time, but lightless night seems to refer to a certain night and the entire night.

It was only now, after seeing this line of explanation in the game text, that Mu You finally understood: It turns out that the so-called "lightless night" refers to the full-moon night in the underground world!

As we all know, the Undercity is a city that never sleeps. The fluorescent stones and sunflowers on the ceiling permanently provide a light source for this underground city. However, whenever the moonlight illuminates the earth on a full moon night, the underground light sources will collectively failed, plunging the Undercity into complete darkness.

In other words, the birth time of Yongye City is not limited to a certain time of day, but is limited to the full moon night of each month!

After confirming the content of this task, Mu You didn't rush to choose one. He pressed his pocket watch and looked at other tasks.

The result is still the same, the pigeon fairy is still a pigeon, and the forest elves and daylight elves still have their original missions.

After some comparison, it turns out that the mission of Undercity is the most suitable. After all, the Lightless Night is coming soon. If you miss this time, Eternal Night City will have to wait another month for it to be released.

It just so happened that his competitor this time, the Tyrant, was still the leader of a werewolf tribe, and was directly related to this mission. He simply stayed in the Undercity for the past few days, while dealing with the Bloody Dawn organization and collecting map fragments. By the way, complete this task.

[You have accepted the mission 'The Feud of the Lightless Night'. Please rush to the Undercity as soon as possible and try to prevent the upcoming dispute between werewolves and vampires. 】

After accepting the mission, Mu You was not in a hurry to go to the Undercity. Instead, he controlled the character to jump off Dawn City and return to the Cook Islands.

He didn't forget that there was still an unfinished task of 'finding Louise' here. He now knew Louise's ending, turning into a shadow ghost in the final experiment, and had probably been eliminated in one of their previous battles with the Undead.

And now, at least those eight pages of the diary must be given to Louise's grandmother, which is the last relic left by the little girl.

Although there is no reward for this task, since you have accepted it, you still have to finish it from beginning to end.

【You have arrived at Yuyu Village. 】

[You found Louise’s grandmother at the west end of Yuyu Village, near the original Yubaba’s residence. 】

[The old lady trembled when she saw you coming, as if she had guessed something. After being lost for a few seconds, she walked towards you anxiously. 】

[Coming to you, the old woman carefully asks you about Louise's whereabouts, you choose...]

The options are [tell the truth] and [weave a beautiful lie].

The Undead Society was destroyed, and there was no need to hide anything at this time. Mu You directly chose to 'tell the truth'.

[You will truthfully tell the truth about what you saw and heard in the Society of the Dead, and give the eight fragmentary pages of Louise's diary to the old woman. 】

[The old woman held the broken page of the diary with trembling hands, looking at the familiar handwriting on it, she couldn't help but burst into tears. Her already old figure seemed to have aged by more than ten years. 】

[After reading the diary, the old woman has understood her granddaughter’s experience and ending over the years. Although the sadness is unspeakable, there is finally a result. She no longer has to worry and wait day after day...]

Mu You sighed while looking at the text description. This kind of thing is very tragic. However, things like this happen almost every day at the bottom of the Star Spirit World. There is only so much he can do.

Shaking his head and ending the mission, Mu You was about to leave, but at this moment, a new text suddenly popped up in the game.

[You were about to leave when the old lady suddenly stopped you. 】

[You are a person who keeps your promises. You have completed her commission from beginning to end and helped her bring back her granddaughter's belongings. The old woman took out a 'Devil-Eating Gu Jar' from her body and wanted to give it to you. 】

[The old woman tells you that now that her shadow has returned, she is planning to leave the sad place of the Cook Islands and see the outside world while she still has a few years to live. This Gu insect jar was originally prepared to deal with the people of the Undead Society. Now that the Undead Society has been destroyed, this thing is no longer useful to her, so I will give it to you as a reward for the mission. 】

[You have obtained the 'Devil-eating Gu Jar': a poison jar specially used to cultivate voodoo worms. One devil-eating Gu can be born every day. 】

[Devouring Gu: It can be set up as a trap, or planted on a unit during physical contact. After entering the body, the Demon-Eating Gu will continue to devour the magic power in the host's body at a rate of 100 points per second until the magic power is lower than 10%. Or until the voodoo is removed. If you forcibly remove the poison, you will lose 100 life points. 】

"Huh?"

Mu You's eyes lit up.

The jar for raising voodoos is a good thing. It automatically produces one voodoo every day, which can be planted to the enemy during battle to make them sick.

Swallowing 100 points of magic per second can't be said to be fatal, but it will definitely make the enemy uncomfortable if it is delayed for a long time. And if the enemy forcibly removes the voodoo, not to mention having to dig out the heart and liver first to remove the voodoo, 100 life points will be permanently lost... Anyway, no matter how you choose, as long as the voodoo is used, the enemy will be disgusted. light.

And if there are no enemies, this Gu can also be used by himself. Combined with the devouring of the golden silkworm, it is equivalent to gaining five points of mobility every day, which is not a loss at all.

Sure enough, it is right to have a beginning and an end!

Mu You accepted the Gu jar with satisfaction, then said goodbye to the old lady and left.

After returning to Sky City, he teleported directly to the Undercity.

[You appear in the Undercity. 】

Since he ran a familiar mission in the Undercity last week, he already had an understanding of the city's regional divisions.

The Undercity is divided into the inner city and the outer city. The inner city is where the dark elves gather, while the outer city is where other races live together.

Mu You directly controlled the character to go to the outer city and wander around the streets with a jack-o'-lantern.

His current goal is to first find a werewolf, then track the werewolf to find their lair and explore the situation.

Werewolves usually appear in human form and are difficult to identify, but these guys also like to hide in some dark and remote places to kill civilians and steal their lifespans, so Mu You also specializes in patrolling such places at this time.

After jumping around for an hour in some hidden streets nearby, the jack-o'-lantern finally got a prompt.

[Pumpkin lantern special effects, trigger! 】

[In the narrow, dark alley ahead, you see a few drops of fresh blood scattered on the ground. Through the glow of the jack-o-lantern, you could see some traces of struggling and dragging on the ground. 】

[Judging from the footprints left at the scene, the victim was most likely a young woman who was attacked by some kind of creature and dragged into the alley. Judging from the freshness of the blood, the attack had just occurred. 】

[This seems to be an opportunity to act bravely. Do you want to follow the traces immediately? 】
