The messages in the group chat were not active for long.
After everyone reported the status of their respective idols, they greeted each other and asked each other to help pay attention to their respective artifacts. Then they all went offline, presumably to go back to revise the new city construction plan and prepare the dungeon strategy.
Mu You didn't rush to log off, but chatted with Solomon privately.
"Master, what's the matter?" Solomon was suddenly knocked privately by Mu You, and he was a little uneasy.
"Oh, it's nothing serious. I received a mission here. I need to find a character named 'Redas Caesar'. This man was the emperor of a desert country in history. Isn't your Daybreak City parked in a desert area? ? So I want you to help inquire about relevant information." Mu Youyou.
Daybreak City is located on a piece of land with the highest concentration of sand in the Star Spirit World. Tens of millions of residents in the city have to kill monsters and complete various tasks in the desert every day. The probability of encountering relevant information is relatively high.
"This is something..." Solomon immediately felt relieved after hearing this. He thought there was something important related to the gods, but it turned out that he was just looking for information. That was too easy!
Solomon immediately promised: "Don't worry, Lord, I will issue a reward for information in the name of the city lord. As long as this person is really in the desert, there will definitely be news!"
"Thank you very much."
"Haha, you're welcome."
…
After closing the forum, Muyou logged into the game again. After transferring the equipment and props, he took the character back to Red Rose Academy.
In the past week, he has been busy dealing with matters in the Undercity. He has fallen behind a lot in the academy's courses. The progress of the three high-level magics he had started previously stalled. Taking advantage of his free time, Mu You hurriedly came back to cram in a few magic classes. By the way, I went to the library for a walk. On the one hand, it was out of the mentality that "criminals always want to go back to the scene of the crime to take a look afterward", and on the other hand, I also wanted to find information about "White Maple City".
Bai Maple City is the place name in the children's song that he found in the Silent Library before. The word "Devil" is mentioned in the lyrics. This may be a breakthrough in his inheritance mission.
But the result surprised Mu You, the library was actually closed!
[You arrive in front of the Red Rose Library, only to find that the door is locked. There is a circle of students surrounding the library, all pointing at a magic notice in front of the door. 】
[You move closer to look at the notice in front of the door. 】
["Yesterday, Mrs. McKenna, the librarian, was attacked by a mysterious gangster during her routine patrol late at night. Mrs. McKenna insisted that she was attacked by a pervert. This was a premeditated act of indecency! The school highly regarded this We take it seriously and have decided to temporarily close the library to preserve evidence! Next, the school will cooperate with the Imperial City Public Security Bureau to investigate the murderer on campus. The library will not be open to the public until the real murderer is found. If any teachers or students find relevant clues, please contact us in time The staff reported it, thank you all for your cooperation..."]
"???"
Mu You was confused after reading it.
satyr? obscene?
Was there another criminal nearby last night?
Or is this referring to him?
The problem is, didn’t he just knock a sap, and why was he inexplicably falsely accused of obscenity...
Mu You's expression was strange, and he was labeled a pervert for no reason. The key point was that he couldn't defend himself. He couldn't clean it up even if he jumped into the Yellow River...
But when he thought about it carefully, he suddenly realized that this matter was not that simple.
If it was just to investigate last night's attack, why did the library have to be closed? And he also specifically stated that it would not be opened until the murderer was found...
Mu You had already guessed something.
Last night was the night of the full moon, and the librarian was attacked last night. Those at the top of the school, and even those at the top of the imperial capital who knew about the existence of the Silent Library, must have thought that someone might have entered the Silent Library last night!
Therefore, looking for the murderer is probably an excuse. The fundamental reason is that what happened last night has aroused the vigilance of some senior people in the Imperial City. In order to prevent the secrets in the Silent Library from being leaked again, these people simply found an excuse to completely seal it off. Got this library!
"This matter is making a fuss..."
Mu You shook his head helplessly and controlled the character to leave the library.
Fortunately, he had already searched for the much-needed information last night and had no other needs for the library in the short term.
Moreover, after experiencing the closure of the library, Mu You suddenly recalled where he had seen the name 'White Maple City'.
——Elf Horn!
White Maple City once appeared in a mission given by the Sun Elves. This mission required him to escort a Sun Elves envoy, sneak into an abandoned city occupied by the undead, and install a teleportation array to allow the Sun Elves to invade. Drop in, blitz the undead, and take back the city.
And the name of that city is Bai Maple City!
Mu You took out the horn in the game and took a look. The last time the horn was blown was around midnight last Sunday, and there were still five or six hours of cooling down.
Next, Mu You spent some time making cards at home, and when morning came, he blew the horn on time.
[You blew the elf horn. 】
[Dark Elf Queen Freyd Exile appears in front of you. Frederic glanced at you, but shook his head at you, indicating that there were no tasks to assign to you this week. 】
"oh?"
Mu You was startled, there was still no mission? This was the first time that someone was spawned but no tasks were assigned.
Fortunately, he has a pocket watch, otherwise wouldn't this be a waste of horn times?
Mu You hurriedly went back according to the watch and continued to blow.
I encountered the forest elves for the second time, and the mission was still the "Utopia Mutation" that would not change for thousands of years.
Mu You went back and started over. His goal this week was very clear, which was the mission with the Sunlight Elves.
Then it was refreshed several times, during which the fairies and fairies remained invisible.
It can be seen from the example of the dark elf that even though there was no mission, Freder still came forward to inform him. This shows that something happened to the elf and fairy, causing her to be unable to respond to the horn call.
Muyou continued to refresh, until the seventh time, he finally spawned the Sunlight Elf. However……
[The Sun Elf Princess Selina Sunshiner appears in front of you, but says that she has no tasks to assign to you this week. 】
"?"
Mu You was stunned, why don't you have any more tasks?
He remembered clearly that the escort mission had appeared last week, but suddenly disappeared this week. Could it be that... someone had already completed it?
Mu You frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered something: that escort mission seemed to have a level limit...
The undead in Bai Maple City are very sensitive to the breath of high-level creatures, so the tasker level needs to be kept below level 17 as much as possible.
Last week, Muyou was still able to get through when he was level 19, indicating that he still barely met the requirements at that time, but this week he reached level 20 and broke through the bottleneck, completely exceeding the task limit.
Wanting to understand the reason, Mu You could only smile bitterly.
There is really no way for him to avoid the fact that his level exceeds the mission requirements. It is impossible to suppress your level just to wait for your mission.
But at this time, Mu You still decided to ask one more question without giving up.
[After Selina finished speaking, her figure disappeared. 】
[You hurriedly stopped her, saying that you had recently noticed that there seemed to be traces of undead activities in Bai Maple City, not far from the Sunlight Elf territory. You tentatively asked Salina if there was anything you needed help with? 】
[Salina glanced at you unexpectedly, hesitated, and nodded: "There was indeed a secret infiltration mission that needed you to do. Unfortunately, your level is too high now. If you break into the land of the undead, you will almost certainly be discovered. She can only find a way to entrust others..."]
Sure enough, this is the reason!
Mu You hurriedly continued typing.
[You hurriedly said that it didn’t matter. You also had something to go through Bai Fengcheng recently. Maybe you could try to help her complete this task. Even if you couldn’t complete it, there would be no loss to her. 】
This is equivalent to actively asking for a task, but this is not the first time Mu You has done this. When the forest elves dealt with the trolls before, he also used a similar method to get an attack troll from Riley. Tomb mission.
[Your statement seems to have moved Salina. 】
[After Salina pondered, she nodded to you: "Okay, but this task is difficult. If you can't do it, don't force it. And if you can complete it, I will give you an arcane mage suit as a reward."]
[Congratulations, you triggered the special mission 'Surprise Attack on White Maple City'. 】
[Task content: Sneak into White Maple City with the 'Micro Anchor Teleportation Array' given by Salina, find the right time, place the teleportation array within 500 meters of the city center, and guard it for more than 5 hours until it automatically Take shape to ensure that the elf army can parachute into Bai Maple City at any time. 】
[Task reward: An optional Arcane Mage suit accessory (epic level). 】
[You have obtained the 'Miniature Anchor Teleportation Array Disk'*1 and 'White Maple City Map'*1. 】
Mu You's eyes lit up, and sure enough, this mission was triggered again!
This time, he was no longer required to escort the envoy. Instead, he was given a prop that would automatically build a teleportation array if dropped. However, the process took up to five hours. During this period, he needed to resist the undead and protect the array on his own. intact.
To be honest, Mu You is not really interested in Salina's mission. When the time comes, he will complete it if he has a chance, and if he doesn't, he will pull it off.
What he really needs is the included map!
Mu You hurriedly pointed out the 'Map of White Maple City' and looked at it.
The detailed terrain of White Maple City and its surrounding areas was drawn on the map. Mu You searched around the map, and sure enough, he quickly found the words 'Tower of the Brave'.
The Tower of the Brave is located outside Bai Feng City, in a village on the southeastern outskirts, and the name of this village is the 'Village of the Brave'.
At the same time, on this map, the Tower of the Brave and the entire Village of the Brave were classified as a red 'forbidden zone' with a warning of 'absolutely prohibited'.
"There is indeed something fishy about this place..." Mu You thought to himself.
It seems that the lyrics of that children's song are not groundless. You may really be able to find traces of the 'Devil' in this place.
Without further ado, let’s go now!
Mu You put away the map, controlled the character to teleport to Phoenix City, and then rode a chocobo to White Maple City.
After about an hour of traveling, the characters finally arrived.
[You have arrived, Bai Maple City. 】
[What appears before you is a city occupied by the undead. Wherever the undead army passes, the ground will be polluted into a corroded surface full of plague. It makes the land barren, the water sources breed plague, and the remains of all things turn into undead. 】
[Looking up, you see a large number of skeleton soldiers and skeleton shooters composed of thick bones, wandering aimlessly in the city. The cold wind blows, making the whole city look particularly cold and strange. 】
[You put away the chocobo, switched to the mysterious man skin, and activated the hermit card. After taking all concealment measures, he quietly stepped onto the soft, desolate and corroded surface. 】
[Unfortunately, your high level and living aura make you as dazzling as a firefly wandering in the dark night in the perception of the undead around you. 】
[Soon a nearby undead discovered you. 】
[A skeleton soldier holding a sword and shield rushes toward you with a clicking sound of bone fragments colliding with each other. 】
【your choice……】
As expected, it was difficult to hide, and Mu You didn't expect to sneak all the way in. If he couldn't hide, he could just kill him.
【You chose to challenge! 】
[You kicked the skeleton soldier to the ground, then quickly chanted magic, and a bright light flashed brightly on the tip of the wand. You released the Holy Light Technique. Under the illumination of the Holy Light, the skeleton soldiers disintegrated and disintegrated in mourning, and soon turned into powder and dissipated. 】
[You have killed a level 15 skeleton soldier, and your experience value will be +15. You obtained 'Skeleton Bone Powder'*1. 】
Killing these undead creatures has no lifespan, and the materials given are completely useless, which is quite a loss. This is why players are always not very interested in undead monsters.
Mu You continued to explore the road.
[You killed the level 16 skeleton soldier...]
[You killed the level 13 skeleton shooter...]
[You killed the level 17 rickets ghoul...]
…
In a place like this where the undead are everywhere, the Holy Light spell is extremely useful, because light magic can cause extra damage to most undead creatures. His level 5 Holy Light spell can damage thousands of people with one shot, as long as it is not encountered. Surrounded by multiple undead, you can easily deal with them.
Mu You followed the map and continued deep into White Maple City. He encountered various undead creatures along the way, and he solved them all one by one. He originally thought that he could reach the place so smoothly, but after a while, a line suddenly popped up in the game that surprised him. text.
[You see a person dressed as an assassin passing in front of you. When the person notices you, he raises his weapon towards you and stares at you warily. From the ID above the opponent's head, you recognize that this is a player. 】
[Veda (Level 17)...]
Um?
Mu You was stunned, there were actually players in this damn place?
And he is also a very advanced player. Players of this level must have joined Sky City. Isn’t mining or clearing dungeons in Sky City better than clearing the undead here? Why do you come to a place like this when you have nothing to do?
Mu You was a little confused for a moment, but he didn't have time to think about it. At this time, the game was still asking him if he wanted to take action.
"no."
The ID of Veda should be a player from the Indonesian region, and the Star Spirit Realm area corresponding to the Indonesian region is the Tasino Empire located next to the Sunlight Elves. Mu You is here to do business, and has no intention of provoking local players for the time being.
[You chose to stand still. The fighting here may disturb other undead. 】
['Veda' was also obviously aware of your extraordinary strength. He also did not dare to take action against you. Instead, he kept vigilance and walked around you, stepped back quickly, and quickly disappeared into the darkness. 】
The mysterious man's skin that Mu You is currently using does not display his ID or level. Fortunately, the other party is quite discerning and can intuitively feel the difference in his attire, so he ran away.
Mu You didn't care and continued the game.
[You continue to move forward and find that behind the stone wall in front of you, a headless skeleton knight is riding an undead horse and patrolling the empty streets left and right. 】
[Headless Horseman (Level 23): Attack power 125-130, defense power 120, health value 18500, abilities: bone gun charge, bone gun piercing, shield block, bloody judgment...]
As soon as I took two steps, I encountered a high-level monster. The Headless Horseman, who was as high as level 23, was definitely an elite monster among the undead. It had high attack, high defense, and a row of abilities, so it was really difficult to deal with.
Moreover, this guy is in the direction that the player came from just now. Mu You estimates that the player must have encountered this elite monster and found that he couldn't beat it, so he retreated or went back to shake people.
No matter what the player thinks, since the other player is gone, this monster belongs to him. An elite monster of this level will definitely drop some good things.
Mu You immediately switched to the vampire skin and controlled the character to prepare to fight.
But at this moment, another text prompt popped up in the game.
[You vaguely hear a rustling sound coming from behind, like the sound of the night wind blowing through the grass. 】
[But your intuition made you aware of the crisis. You looked back calmly with your peripheral vision. 】
[From the perspective of night vision, you can clearly see the hay more than ten meters behind you. The player 'Veda' who just left has returned and is crouching furtively in the grass, peeping towards you. Come……】
"oh?"
Mu You frowned, what is this? Oriole behind?
Is this the plan to wait for him to fight the Headless Horseman, then this guy will jump out and attack, killing two birds with one stone?
Mu You saw through the other party's conspiracy at a glance, but didn't pay much attention to it.
If you are an ordinary player and are suddenly attacked from both sides, you will indeed suffer a heavy blow. It's a pity that the other party still underestimated his fighting power. If he were to deal with these two, he wouldn't be able to do it one against two, not to mention that he had seen through this person in advance.
[You ignore the potential enemies behind you and rush directly towards the Headless Horseman in front, shooting multiple arrows from a distance. 】
[Your arrows did not cause actual damage to the Headless Horseman, but it was more than enough to anger the opponent. 】
[The Headless Horseman discovered you, and the horse under his crotch made an angry hoofbeat. The Headless Horseman raises his bone gun and launches the 'Death Charge'. The man and his horse turn into a bolt of lightning and charge towards you. 】
[You are still shooting arrows stupidly on the spot, not knowing what the danger is. The next second, you were pierced by the bone spear and flew away far away, crossing a parabola and landing right near the grass where Veda was hiding! 】
[In the distance, the Headless Horseman quickly turns his horse's head and charges in your direction again. 】
[You heard a burst of curses behind you: "Damn it, where did you come from?"]
[The next second, the assassin's silhouette jumped out of the grass and flew into the distance, trying to escape the attack range of the Headless Horseman. 】
[You activated 'Godly Speed' and instantly escaped in front of the assassin at a faster speed. 】
[The Headless Horseman's horse is still charging towards you, but it is forcibly stopped by the assassin blocking the road ahead. The bone spear penetrated Veda's body, and the headless horseman raised Veda high above his head like a public display...]
