"Which player is it?" Blue Eyes White Dragon asked on behalf of everyone.

"It's not a player, it's a real local creature, a 5-star sparrow man." Mu said.

5 stars?

Everyone was even more confused.

If it's only 5 stars, the master should be able to handle it himself...

They have all heard that the city lord has been hunting 5-star creatures around with his bone dragon in recent days. There is a nest at one end, which is extremely cruel.

"This kind of sparrow man is very fast and has strong hiding ability. I'm afraid it will run away." Mu You explained.

"I see……"

Only then did everyone understand.

Naturally, they did not refuse Mu You's request, it was just a matter of effort.

Of course, to deal with a 5-star creature, you don’t need too many people. A dozen or so people are enough.

Next, Mu You and the others made some arrangements, selected ten stronger players, and first set up an ambush near the top of the mountain.

Mu You returned to the game, temporarily left the village, and teleported back to Dawn City through the green lantern on the mountain road.

【You appear in Dawn City. 】

[You come to the statue of Order, and the statue’s eyes emit a soft light that envelopes you. 】

[Current total amount of divine pool: 335,000. 】

[Current total experience pool: 84.5 million. 】

[Currently unlockable branch magic: 1 star, 15 kinds... 2 stars, 13 kinds... 3 stars, 11 kinds...]

After being promoted to 3 stars, Mu You can now operate and unlock all branch magic below 3 stars.

He came back this time just to unlock a magical spell that he had seen before and use it to deal with the Sparrow Man.

Mu You searched through the list of 2-star magic spells and quickly found the one he liked.

[Low-altitude combat: After turning it on, creatures within your vicinity must remain below a certain height. If they exceed the warning height, they will be hit hard and a layer of order locks will be imposed. 】

To put it bluntly, this magic is to create a no-fly zone around the body. All creatures within the range must fight on land. It is specially designed to deal with flying creatures that are good at high-altitude strikes.

If it were somewhere else, Mu You wouldn't have exchanged it for a magical spell just to catch a crow.

However, the surrounding areas of this mountain range are now covered by no-fly rules. Only a few local creatures such as Crows, Sparrows, and Big Birds can fly normally. Other players, including Bone Dragons, are strictly restricted by this rule.

As long as the sparrow man escaped to high altitude, they could only watch the other party escape without any recourse.

If you want to capture that sparrow man alive, this rule is almost necessary!

[The branch magic 'Low-Altitude Combat' has been unlocked. Order believers above the fanatic level can spend 100 points of divinity to understand this magic. 】

[...You have learned 'low-altitude combat'. 】

[You spent 195 points of divinity, and your 'low-altitude combat' was upgraded to LV4. 】

After spending 100 divinity to master low-altitude combat, Mu You casually threw away some divinity and upgraded the magic to level 4, slightly increasing the scope of the no-fly field.

After doing this, Mu You returned to the Crow tribe through the soul-inducing lamp in the city.

[You appear under the soul-inducing lamp of the Crow Tribe. The nearby mountain roads were deserted. 】

[You returned to the arakkoa village, and soon you saw the rogue arakkoa from before in front of a stall near the entrance of the village. 】

[The thief was surprised for a moment when he saw you coming back, but he immediately regained his composure and pretended to continue selecting goods. 】

[You ignored the thief and walked straight to the arakkoa vendor from before, scanning the goods on the ground. 】

["Guest, tell me what you like!" Under the expectant gaze of the Yaren vendor, you pointed at the three divine attack and defense potions and life potions in the second row, and bargained: "Boss, can you give me these potions? Cheaper?"]

[The Crowman vendor was happy when he heard this, but he immediately put away his smile, turned into a troubled expression, and said hesitantly: "Guest, you don't know, the potions of God's Attack and Defense are rare goods, and the annual output is very limited. We purchase them. It’s not easy either. 1,000 bottles is already the lowest price in the market...”]

[After the Crow Man vendor finished speaking, he saw your slightly frowning expression and changed his words: "But for the sake of my friendship with your Fool ancestors, if you buy three potions together, I can give you a 10% discount on three bottles. The potion is packed with 2700 divinity, how about it?"]

The other party proposed a bundled sale, and Mu You immediately guessed that there must be some differences in demand among the three potions. Among them, the power of God potion is the most practical, has the most demand, and is the best-selling. With limited funds, everyone will definitely give priority. Choose God's Power, followed by God's Defense, and finally Life Potion.

The three potions are sold in packages, which avoids the embarrassing situation of the God's Power being sold out early, leaving the two potions unattended.

Mu You didn't care about this. He had originally planned to buy all three potions, but it would be nice if they were cheaper now.

[You showed a slightly emotional expression and quietly activated 'Presence', which greatly enhanced the sense of presence. 】

[The eyes of many people around you were attracted to you. After hesitating on the spot for a few seconds, you told the Crow Man vendor that you agreed to his deal, but your funds were a little short and you needed to get some divinity first so that he could save it for you. Several potions. 】

["No problem!" the arakkoa vendor happily agreed. 】

[You then turned around and swaggered out of the village under the gazes of the surrounding arakkoa people. 】

[While returning to Kunpeng's lair, you noticed that the rogue Crowman also followed you out of the village, but did not approach you, but followed you from a distance. 】

[You pretended not to be aware of this, went straight to Kunpeng's lair, fed Kunpeng 30 points of divinity, and asked Kunpeng to take you back to the top of the mountain. 】

[Kunpeng swallowed the divinity, raised his head and made a sound with his hoofs, and opened his mouth to swallow you...]

[…A few minutes later, Kunpeng’s mouth opened, and the environment around you has turned into the familiar Scorpion Mountain Top. 】

[After watching Kunpeng fly back, you go down the mountain and come to the jungle at the foot of the mountain. You search nearby and quickly find a nest of 3-star wild monsters. You rush up with a dagger...]

Muyou let the character hunt wild monsters alone in the forest, and at the same time opened the forum on another mobile phone.

At this time, in the group chat, news about the Crow Tribe had spread. A group of people were having a heated discussion about how to raise money to summon the big bird. Everyone went over to light up the green lanterns in turn.

Mu You formed a group alone and brought ten people including the Blue Eyes White Dragon whom he selected just now into the group. At this moment, the game characters of these people had already been ambushing near his leveling point, and there were Lu Yao's relics. Helping cover up their aura, even Mu You couldn't feel their presence at all.

"There's no movement. Is that person not coming?" One person couldn't help but say.

Everyone watched Mu You's character grind monsters alone for more than ten minutes. However, the scene was always calm and there was no unnecessary abnormality.

"Don't worry, it will definitely come." Mu You said confidently.

The arakkoa followed him out of the village in the end, and it was impossible for him to let go of such a good opportunity.

As for the delay in showing up at this time, Mu You guessed that the gangster was cautious by nature and was still waiting and watching. He would not show up until it was confirmed that there was no danger.

Mu You asked everyone to calm down and hide themselves, while he continued to clear the wild while paying attention to the divinity column on the panel at all times.

It went on like this for more than an hour. After he swiped seven or eight waves of wild monsters, finally, at the moment when the last wild monster fell to the ground in front of him, Mu You suddenly saw the data in the divinity column change.

[The divine crystal you carry: 54 points...]

Mu You immediately retraced his steps and quickly typed a message in the group: "Here he comes, get ready!"

The group that was lively just now suddenly became quiet, and everyone was looking at their respective games attentively.

After Mu You looked back, he silently counted down the time.

9…8…7…

2!

At the last second before being stolen, Mu You suddenly pressed a button on the panel.

[You have released the magical spell 'Silence', and all the magical effects within your field of vision will immediately become invalid! 】

[While casting the spell, you noticed that an invisible arakkoa appeared quietly three meters behind you, keeping its sneaky movements, and met your eyes, frozen in place in disbelief. 】

[At the same time, the Bone Dragon emerged from the ground not far away, roaring and rushing towards the Crow People, while many Fools hidden around them also jumped out and swarmed towards the Crow People. 】

[The crow man was suddenly startled and hurriedly turned around and ran away. After running two steps, he instinctively transformed into the form of a crow, spread his wings and took off...]

[You were well prepared, following closely behind, and at the moment the opponent took off, you released the 'low-altitude combat'. 】

[A halo of light formed above your head. The crow that had just taken off fell straight down from the air as if it had been hit hard, and happened to fall into the circle of people. 】

[Everyone and the bone dragon swarmed up and launched a brutal and inhumane attack on the crow. The crow people struggled desperately to break through the siege. Unfortunately, under the blockade of the silent barrier, the crow people had nowhere to display their abilities and could only be beaten in embarrassment. 】

[Your blood-sucking poison velvet hit the crow multiple times, and the defense of the arakkoa was greatly reduced. At the same time, a layer of spider web gradually formed on the arakkoa, sticking it in place...]

What follows is a simple siege, with nothing to say. More than a dozen top players plus a dragon, as well as the silent barrier sealing magic, if they can still let it escape, they should stop opening up wasteland and return to the star spirit world as soon as possible to retire.

Two minutes later, the arakkoa with more than 7,000 health was severely injured and had no blood left. He completely lost the power to resist. He was entangled with the body of the bone dragon, with his petrified eyes staring at him, unable to move.

"Okay, stop fighting." Seeing that the opponent's health was only in double digits, Mu You hurriedly stopped everyone. He needs to capture this guy alive, because the reward is only for those alive.

With an order, everyone stopped in a sensible manner.

Muyou controlled the character to go forward and search.

[You grope around the seriously injured bandit. 】

[You have obtained the 'Ma Bandit Mask', 'Ma Bandit Gloves', and 'Ma Bandit Backpack'. 】

[You found 3827 divine crystals in the 'Ma bandit's backpack'! 】

Nearly 4,000 divinities were found in the bag alone, and with the bounty order, it could be exchanged for 1,000. In this wave, not only did the lost divinities get back, but an additional two or three thousand were made, not to mention the search. Three kinds of props are released!

"Come, come, come and see me."

Mu You was not stingy either. As soon as he got the divinity, he immediately gave 100 to each of the ten people present as a reward.

Everyone declined at first, but with Mu You's insistence, they all accepted it with a smile.

100 divinity is equivalent to the income of hunting a 5-star creature alone. For them, it usually takes a long time to get it, and it is very likely to be injured, but now they can get it without injury after squatting for an hour. Such an easy job , they will accept as many as they come.

"City Lord, let's go first..."

"Contact me if you have any questions..."

"See you later!"



After the division of the spoils was completed, everyone said hello and then retreated, and soon only Mu You and Gu Long were left on the scene.

Only then did Mu You have time to check the effects of the three props.

[Sparrow Mask: A special mask made by the Sparrow Man. After being assembled, the Sparrow Man's appearance can be perfectly transformed into a Crow Man. Even the Crow Man himself can hardly tell the difference. Can only be equipped by Sparrow Man. 】

[The Robber's Gloves: The master's hand is empty, and the thief will not go empty. After assembling it, you will gain the ability to steal. If you get close to the target carrying the divine crystal within three meters, you can randomly steal a certain amount of the target's divinity, but there is a certain probability that the theft will fail. After failure, will expose itself. Through acquired practice, the proficiency in stealing can be improved, the failure rate can be reduced, and the proportion of stealing divinity can be controlled to a certain extent. Can only be equipped by Sparrow Man. 】

[Ma bandit backpack: a backpack specially designed to store divine crystals, with a maximum capacity of 100,000 crystals. After assembly, the stolen divine crystals will appear directly in the backpack. Assembly column +2 when assembling. Can only be equipped by Sparrow Man. 】

"They are all good things!"

Mu You was overjoyed after reading this. The descriptions of the three items are all very eye-catching.

The first thing Mu You noticed was the 'Ma Bandit Backpack'. Not to mention how much divinity it can store, this thing can actually add two assembly slots at once!

This means that while he is assembling the backpack, he can also get an extra assembly slot for free. For this reason alone, the value of this thing is no less than a hidden relic!

Not to mention the remaining masks and gloves.

The Sparrow Mask is the basis for the Sparrow People to disguise themselves as Crow People and blend into the Crow People tribe. With this mask, no one can reveal their identity unless they are exposed themselves.

The Sparrow Gloves are the core props of the Sparrow people, a thieving race. This thing reminds Mu You of the 'Thief Saint Gloves' of the Star Spirit World. They are also gloves that give the ability to steal. Even the appearance is somewhat similar. Mu You I even wonder if the Saint Thief Gloves in the Star Spirit Realm were designed based on the Bandit Gloves...

Mu You has not been able to use the Thief Saint Glove since he acquired it due to the limitations of the skin. (Because the level of the Saint Thief Gloves is too high, it needs to be downgraded with degradation stones before it can be used. However, Muyou has not encountered degradation stones so far.)

Unexpectedly, he had not developed the Saint Thief Gloves yet, and now in the real world, he accidentally acquired a more advanced real prop...

Unfortunately, this glove also has limitations: only Sparrowmen can equip it, which directly blocks the possibility of other races using this glove, unless someone can transform into a Sparrowman...

Wait...become a sparrow man...

Mu You suddenly remembered something.

Among the blood laws he obtained in the Vampire Paradise, there was a rare blood law called 'Transformation', which is the signature ability of the shapeshifter clan: after killing a creature, it can perfectly transform into the other person's appearance.

Then if he learns this blood law and kills a sparrow man with his own hands, wouldn't he be able to assemble these props?
