The moment the Goblin King returned to the barrier, the riot of the snakes immediately slowed down. Dozens of venomous snakes rushed in and hit the edge of the barrier. They shattered inch by inch like paper until they dissipated.
The remaining vipers gave up and turned around to continue besieging the three clones.
"So what's going on now?" The watchman asked, looking at the herb picker who jumped back into the encirclement.
"I don't know..." the herb collector said impatiently.
"Should I keep killing snakes here forever..." Linglong looked horrified.
"I said, it's not like I can kill these things... Do you want to take the main body and escape immediately?" the watchman asked.
"What should I do, No. 2?"
"No. 2, think of a solution quickly..."
…
The two of them each said that the questions were all directed at the herb collector, as if they had already acquiesced that he was the decision-maker when the main body was absent.
While the herb collector was busy facing the enemy, he was also bombarded with questions from the two men, and was a little upset for a while.
At this moment, his expression suddenly condensed, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a black shadow quickly break through the darkness and rush towards the main body.
The herb collector subconsciously jumped out and landed in front of Mu You. He swung his sickle and slashed towards the incoming black shadow.
"Wait! Don't kill her, she is..."
Just when the sickle was about to hit the black shadow, another familiar voice sounded from behind.
The herb gatherer frowned, and the sickle in his hand hovered in the air without cutting it off.
The black shadow that rushed towards him at this moment was completely exposed before his eyes. It was a strange blue caterpillar with a body that was wrapped in rich black air and a body length of three to four meters.
The caterpillar had a huge mouth and completely ignored the three clones, bypassing the herb collector and rushing straight towards Muyou. The herb gatherer hesitated for a second while holding the sickle, but still did not make a move.
Because after synchronizing his memory with the main body, he recognized the caterpillar the moment he met it. It was the nameless goblin from before, but he didn't expect that she had turned into a monster in just two days.
According to the fairy tribe, weirdness is something that will be formed after the death of fairies. However, the herb collector felt a faint sense of reason from this weird body. In other words, the fairy girl may not have fully recovered yet. Die.
The herb gatherer stopped his hand, and the caterpillar quickly squirmed in front of Mu You, with black energy surging all over its body, wrapping Mu You in it.
In the darkness behind, a goblin with red hair and wings quickly flew out, it was Tina.
"Miss Tina? Why are you here? Didn't you say that goblins can't enter the dark cave? How did you find this place?" The watchman said in surprise when he saw the red goblin appearing.
"You are Tina's contractor. Tina can vaguely feel your location, but it's very vague. There is only a general direction. Tina can only find this place with her leading the way..." Tina pointed to the distance. caterpillar.
"she?"
The three of them looked at the caterpillar again, only to find that the huge bug was lying next to Mu You, holding his head in its mouth, saliva overflowing, and seemed to be trying hard to swallow him.
"What's going on? Why does it seem to be planning to eat the main body?" the watchman asked.
"Even if he is swallowed, he is just a game character. He will be resurrected...probably..." Linglong said uncertainly.
"What happened? Why did she become like this?" The herb collector frowned and looked at Tina.
Tina was startled by the serious expression of the herb gatherer, and hurriedly floated behind the watchman. Only then did she dare to show her face aggrievedly, and explained to the three people what happened at the entrance of the dark cave.
"Could it be that she is taking the yandere route? She was ruthlessly abandoned by her main body and turned into a black man, so she wants to eat her main body to vent her anger?" Linglong muttered to herself.
"No matter what it is, are we sure we don't want to stop it? If we don't care about it anymore, it will really be eaten..." the watchman said helplessly.
Thanks to the unremitting efforts of the blue caterpillar, one third of Mu You's body had been swallowed into its body.
The herb picker frowned and glanced at the caterpillars on the ground, shaking his head: "Let's take a look first and then talk. Anyway, no matter what, it won't be worse than the current situation..."
…
While the three of them were busy dealing with the snakes, Mu You immediately felt something unusual in reality.
"Huh? The increase in deviation value has slowed down?"
Mu You felt the number of red runes in his body.
Since a certain moment just now, the deviation value that had been steadily increasing suddenly slowed down. Although the slowdown was extremely slight, Mu You immediately noticed this change because his life was at stake.
Mu You immediately guessed what happened to the clone and hurriedly took out his phone to check.
[A blue worm is lying on your body, trying to swallow you into the body. 】
[You feel a very familiar aura from this worm. This is the weird transformation of your contracted fairy. 】
[But the goblin at this moment is obviously no longer the gentle and kind goblin girl you know, but a weird one that only has the desire to devour you. 】
emmm…
Mu You looked weird. He hadn't watched the game for a while. Why did it suddenly develop in such a strange direction? Where did the fairy girl come from? She actually turned into a monster and wanted to eat herself?
In-game text continues to pop up.
[In the process of being swallowed, you feel that this blue worm seems to retain some sense. You see tears in the corners of its eyes as it devours you. As a contractor of the nameless goblin, you can vaguely feel the worm's inner cry-like appeal: it is begging you, don't abandon it, open your heart to it, And accept it all. 】
[Do you choose to accept this weird thing? Choosing to accept it will deepen the contract between you and the nameless goblin, and your deviation value recovery speed and upper limit will be doubled, but doing so may also bring you some unknown risks. 】
[Accept], [Reject].
"Oh?" Mu You was startled. You must know that his character was completely out of control before, but now an option pops up?
Muyou hurriedly tried opening the panel first.
Unfortunately, except for this option, all other texts in the game are still inoperable.
Mu You had no choice but to look back at that option.
Whether to accept weirdness...
The text description is vague and does not mention what the specific 'risks' are.
However, after Mu You pondered for a few seconds, he decided to 'accept' it. After all, he had no time to think about the risks. The most pressing issue now was the deviation value.
The deviation value suddenly slowed down just now, which was obviously caused by this caterpillar. In addition, the text also mentioned that as long as the opponent is accepted, the upper limit of the deviation value can be doubled!
This alone makes Mu You unable to refuse. The benefits brought by doubling the deviation value are immeasurable. First of all, the deviation value crisis in front of him will not be a problem in an instant. At the same time, the scope of all the rules he can change will also be greatly increased in the future. !
[You chose to accept the other party...]
The moment he clicked on the option, Mu You suddenly felt countless memory images pouring into his mind. It was very similar to the feeling of synchronizing with the clone before, but the memory level of the two was completely different.
Before synchronizing with the clones, the memories of only a few days at most could be digested almost instantly, but this time it was thousands of years of memories, and most of them were negative memories, which made Mu You very dumbfounded. for a while.
In a trance, Mu You saw the whole process of the fairy girl from her birth to the present, from her noble birth, to her short life as a high-class fairy, to her accidental destruction of the face of a statue of a god, her deprivation of her name, and her return from heaven. Go to hell and live with garbage all day long.
Because of his naturally cowardly and submissive character, he never knows how to resist when faced with bullying from outsiders, and thus becomes a target for everyone to bully.
In the world of fairies, fairies who have lost the meaning of their existence, or fairies who are in extremely bad mood, will transform into monsters. This has always been the rule of the Bitter Garden, and it is also the most common way of death for the fairies.
Therefore, most goblins will complete their work conscientiously every day and try not to make any mistakes, because once they make a mistake and are deprived of their name, it means that there will no longer be a fixed work assignment in the future, and the meaning of survival will easily be lost.
This is also the reason why the life cycle of the nameless goblin is always so short. Becoming a nameless goblin is basically a death sentence. It's just a matter of time.
The fairy girl possessed all these two conditions for death, and she was able to persist for hundreds of years without mutating, all thanks to her miraculous desire to survive. She even regarded the bullying she suffered as a need for her by others. Only under this extreme self-hypnosis did he survive.
But no matter how hard she tries to self-hypnotize, the pain accumulated over the past hundreds of years will not disappear. No one can bear so much negative energy. If she does not explode in silence, she will perish in silence. The character of the fairy girl makes her choose If you don't endure it to the end, your demise will become doomed.
Five days ago, the day Mu You traveled to this world, the fairy girl who could no longer deceive herself had already felt the signs of a collapse of her will. She was kind-hearted and did not want to cause trouble to anyone even before she died. So he left the garbage dump silently, found a deserted place, and prepared to end his life in silence.
But just when the black energy surged all over her body and she was about to transform into something weird, Mu You descended from the sky and happened to interrupt her mutation process.
The goblin girl looked at this outsider who had obviously smuggled in and fell unconscious. For the first time, she had some greedy thoughts.
Maybe she can continue to live. If there is no meaning in existence, then she can create meaning by herself.
The goblin girl did the first selfish bad thing in her life: she cast Sleep Blessing on the comatose Mu You, moved him to a garbage dump, and dumped him in a place with strange haunts. Then she directed and acted in an "accidental encounter" 'The drama.
The fairy girl's idea is simple: outsiders must need pollen. As long as they rely on their own pollen and ask for help from her, she will have the meaning of living.
Unfortunately, she didn't expect that Muyou brought his own pollen, which was the highest grade lucky dust. After that, she could only humble herself and pray to follow Mu You, trying to maintain the meaning of her existence until two days ago, when everyone arrived at the dark cave.
Mu You wanted to enter the dark cave and never return. The fairy girl finally found no reason to continue to follow him, so it was natural for her to transform into Weird.
However, there was another change in the process of incarnation. I wonder if Mu You chose to make a contract with her before, which gave her too much hope, which caused the elf girl to be too obsessed with him, and she failed to become completely weird in the end. Instead, relying on the support of that obsession, she jumped into the dark cave until she found him.
'As long as I swallow him, he will be mine forever! ', this is the only remaining obsession that Mu You saw in the fairy girl's last stage of memory.
Relying on this simple and crazy obsession, the fairy girl helped him resist the mental attack of the snake and suppressed part of the effects of the chaotic curse, giving Mu You a chance to breathe.
After completing the acceptance, Mu You has clearly felt that the recovery speed of the deviation value in the body has been greatly improved! Now even if Mu You does not restore order, the deviation value in his body will not increase anymore, but will slowly decrease. This shows that the recovery speed of the deviation value provided by the fairy girl alone is higher than the curse of the God of Chaos. Effect!
If nothing else, at least the life crisis has been resolved.
Of course, there are costs.
[You fully accept the fairy girl, which means accepting that she completely takes over your subconscious by devouring her deep inside. For the rest of your life, you will continue to lose life at a rate of 10-200 points per second, depending on the fairy girl's mental stability, until the contract is terminated or either party dies completely. 】
The price is clearly stated in the game: never-ending blood deduction!
It can reach a maximum of 200 points per second, which looks scary, but compared with doubling the upper limit of the deviation value, this price is really not a big deal. After all, what is deducted here is only ordinary life, which can be offset by stacking recovery equipment.
[The fairy girl helped you resist the spiritual attack of the snake, and your right hand was temporarily freed under the protection of the unicorn arm. 】
[Now, you can use your right hand to perform some operations. 】
Mu You was delighted to see the two new texts.
The reason why his character escaped from control just now was because he was suppressed by the double suppression of the curse of chaos and the snake. The snake acted on the spiritual level, making him unable to control his body consciously.
The chaos curse directly acts on the body, making him unable to move. However, this 'chaotic state' is a curse after all, and if it is a curse, it will be restrained by the Qilin Arm.
Before, the reason why the Kirin Arm could not move was because in addition to the chaos curse, he was also suppressed by the spirit of the snake. But now, the spirit of the snake is blocked by the fairy girl, so naturally the curse of chaos alone can no longer suppress the Kirin Arm.
Mu You hurriedly sent the Pen of Order into the game.
There is only one right hand that can move, so it can't really do much, but it is still okay to control the Pen of Order.
[You summoned the unicorn arm, grabbed the pen of order with the unicorn arm, and headed in the direction of the Goblin King. 】
[You wave the pen of order and begin to try to restore order on the Fairy King...]
From the previous text prompts, he had already seen that there must be something wrong with this Goblin King. Otherwise, why would the snake suddenly open its eyes and launch a mental attack on him when he should have been sleeping just now?
Of course, this does not mean that the Goblin King has switched sides to the snake and has become a servant of the snake. Otherwise, it only needs to commit suicide directly, and the snake can escape at any time.
Since the Goblin King is still playing the role of suppressor, it means that it has not been completely controlled by the snake. However, during the eight hundred years, its spirit must have relaxed sometimes, and the snake is a monster that plays with people's hearts. …
Mu You estimated that the Goblin King might have been subtly occupying part of its will by the snake, but it was not even aware of it.
And Mu You now wants to help it get rid of this part of the invading will and let it return to normal.
Now that he has the poison of chaos in his body, it is impossible to re-strengthen the seal of the Holy Spear, and he will be kicked out of that world soon, so for the next four thousand years, the snake will be in a state where the seal is loosened In this state, if you want to prevent the snake from getting out of trouble, you can only rely on the suppressor to make it sleep for a long time.
The only thing that worries Mu You is that only eight hundred years have passed, and the spirit of the Goblin King has been corrupted to this extent by the snake. Will it still be able to persist for another four thousand years?
