MTL - This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic-Chapter 362 The boss behind the scenes of the undead society
Chapter 362 The boss behind the undead society
【You have come to the west area of the underground factory. 】
【You pretended to be a cleaning robot and passed by nearby, cleaning all the way here. 】
【You can see checkpoints and monitoring equipment at the entrance of the west area ahead, and the yellow lines drawn on the ground represent that this is a no-go area. 】
【Sensing you approaching, the surveillance camera above is immediately aimed at you. In front of the entrance, an elderly administrator wearing presbyopic glasses and sitting on a recliner reading a book also looked up at you. 】
【You had to turn around before the forbidden line, and continued to sweep forward...】
Mu You looked at the text in the game, and it really wasn't that easy to get in when he arrived. The entrance here specially arranged for an administrator to guard it 24 hours a day.
Next, he manipulated the character to wander around, but unfortunately, all the places that looked like entrances were tightly guarded, even cleaning robots were not allowed to approach.
But still the same sentence, no matter how tight the defense is, it is always impossible to be airtight.
Since there is a Gu pond in the west area, thousands of Gu worms must produce a large number of worm corpses every day, how to discharge these garbage?
Mu You continued to look around patiently.
About half an hour later, he found a place.
【You find dozens of cleaning robots gathered in front of you, guarding in front of a black river. 】
【You stepped forward and found a large number of Gu insect corpses floating in the river. It was these insect corpses that dyed the river into pitch black. 】
【These cleaning robots are like assembly line workers standing on both sides of the river, constantly pulling out insect corpses from the river and throwing them into the trash cans on their bodies. After the trash cans are full, they are transported out in batches for destruction. 】
【You squeeze into the robot team to help, and at the same time look around, and soon find that there is a pipe mouth connected to the end of the river, and black water is continuously being discharged from the pipe...】
Mu You understood when he saw this. This pipe is obviously a sewage pipe, and it is likely to be directly connected to the Gu pool. As long as you follow this pipe, you should be able to reach the Gu pool directly.
【You moved away from the river, and walked around the pipeline at an angle that other robots couldn't see. 】
【You entered the mouth of the pipe. The pipes are filled with rotting insect corpses, pushed forward by the flowing water at the bottom. 】
【You walk against the current, the two mechanical arms push away the corpses around you, and crawl deep into the pipe. 】
【Many Gu insect corpses are acidic and corrosive, and will corrode all creatures that stray into the pipeline, even the mechanical body cannot escape the fate of being corroded. Your mecha shell is being corroded and softened a little bit, but fortunately you are equipped with active armor, which can continuously repair your damage, and the speed of damage and repair tends to be balanced. 】
【After crawling forward for a certain distance, you find that living Gu worms gradually appear in the pipe, and as you move forward, the number increases rapidly. 】
【All kinds of live Gu crawled all over your body, constantly wandering on the surface of your body, as if trying to find a breakthrough to penetrate into your body. Fortunately, you are now a mechanical body and cannot be parasitized by Gu insects. 】
【Although Gu worms cannot penetrate into your body, the appearance of a large number of worms still greatly hinders your forward speed, especially many worms have penetrated into your joints, making body movements more difficult. 】
【...The Gu worm completely blocked all your joints, you can't move! 】
"Depend on."
Mu You's eyelids twitched.
A super-powered robot can be stuck to a dead end by bugs. It is conceivable how dense the bugs are here.
Fortunately, this is a word game, and a few lines of words will be passed by lightly. If it is a 3D game, no one can bear the impact of this kind of picture.
Mu You had no choice but to log out of the game and log in again after half a minute.
【You appeared in the sewage pipe full of Gu worms, relaxed and continued to climb forward. 】
When going offline, the character will enter the collapsed state in place. At this time, of course, the bugs attached to the body surface cannot enter the collapse, and they will be naturally discharged and fall back into the pipeline. When they go online again, the game character will become clean net.
However, this state could not last long. After about a minute, the text indicated that the mecha was covered with bugs again and could not move again.
There was no other way, so Mu You had to go online and offline every minute to keep cleaning the bugs on his body.
Crawling through the pipeline step by step for more than an hour, finally, a new prompt popped up.
【You climbed out of the end of the pipe and entered an extremely wide curved pool. 】
【The pool is full of dense Gu worms, dozens of times denser than the Gu worms in the pipeline. 】
【Thousands of worms wriggle around in the pool, making the whole pool look like a boiling worm lake...】
Finally arrived at the Gu pool described in the diary, this place is really amazing, the number of bugs is much more than he imagined.
Of course, the more such a place is, the more likely it is that the nemesis of bugs will appear.
Mu You hastily manipulated the character to continue crawling hard in the Gu pool.
Now his body is pressed to the bottom of the Gu pool, and the top of his head is at least covered by a swarm of insects several meters high, and he can't see what the outside world looks like at all.
Mu You simply activated the sand spider nest.
【Hundreds of sand spiders gushed out from your body and explored in all directions of the worm pond. 】
【A large number of detection screens flashed in front of you, but the screens were basically covered by dense insects...】
The scope of this pool is ridiculously large. More than a hundred sand spiders were working at the same time. It took half an hour before the first information was finally sent back.
【One of your sand spiders found a crumpled note in a crack in the wall at the edge of the Gu pool. 】
Mu You hurried over to check.
【This note was wrapped in an antiseptic book cover, but it was still pitted and gnawed by bugs. 】
【You opened the note and vaguely recognized the writing on it. 】
【Fragmented pages of Louise's diary. 】
[…I was taken into the dark underground by that weird Granny Tang, in a dormitory, or in a hospital. According to Granny Tang, I got a very serious disease and had to be hospitalized here for several years. Treatment... After entering the hospital, I realized that there are many children waiting for 'treatment' like me... I was assigned to Ward 15 of the North District Treatment Center. It seems that there were people living here not long ago, because there were many former Items left by the master, but now, they are all mine...
The girl who lives in ward 14 next to me is a girl named Mianmian. She looks about my age, with a pair of ruby eyes and straight long hair. Her facial features are also so exquisite that she looks like a doll. She is as cute as a doll... I tried to say hello to her, but she didn't pay attention to me. When she looked at me, she didn't even have a trace of expression on her face. I was a little lost... Until that night, when everyone turned off the lights and went to sleep, I suddenly heard a faint knocking sound from the wall, which came from the 14th ward next door... I was lying on the wall trying to hear it clearly, knocking The sound of the beating stopped suddenly, and then a note was sent from the bottom of the wall...
I opened the note, and it said "you can go anywhere, but don't enter the West End, where there is a terrible 'monster'"... This is the first time I heard the legend about the 'monster', from the patient next door a kind reminder…
—1/8】
This time it is the first page of the diary. There is not much valuable content on this page. Apart from mentioning the keyword 'monster' again, the only useful information is probably saying 'Ward 15, North District Treatment Center 'This specific location.
The North District was the abandoned area he had searched before, but the area was too large, and he just passed through most of the places, and had not searched with the search spell, and this ward was the room where Louise lived for a long time. There might be other clues in there.
Of course, there is no rush, let’s settle the matter in this pool first.
It was almost as if Mu You had just read the contents of the diary when a new reminder popped up.
【One of your sand spiders saw a golden light on the other side of the Gu pool, which was so dazzling among the black bugs all over the sky. 】
[You immediately control the sand spider to approach and continue to investigate. Soon the sand spider got out of the insect swarm, and saw a small blank area in front of it. In the center of the blank area, a golden silkworm chrysalis grew, surrounded by worms The sea surrounded the silkworm chrysalis, but they all seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, and did not dare to approach it at all, which made an open space appear around the silkworm chrysalis. 】
【Golden silkworm chrysalis: The young eggs of golden silkworms can hatch into mature golden silkworms. The contracted golden silkworm will help you devour the Gu worms at any time, and feed back your physical strength and magic power. Every time you devour a Gu worm, you will recover 500 mana points and increase your action power by 5 points at the same time. 】
Mu You's eyes lit up when he saw it, it really was a golden silkworm!
Moreover, the specific effect of the golden silkworm also surprised him quite a bit. Not only can it dispel Gu, but it can also help restore physical strength when devouring Gu insects.
Eating a Gu can restore five points of action power, so as long as he can get this golden silkworm, he will be able to act in the Cook Sea area in the future, which is equivalent to having unlimited physical strength!
Mu You hastily brought the character closer to this side, ready to walk out of the sea of insects and take away the silkworm chrysalis.
Before he could do anything, a new prompt popped up in the game.
【You are about to approach the silkworm chrysalis, when you suddenly hear a faint human voice in front of you. 】
【"President, everything is normal here, you don't have to worry..." This voice is quite familiar, it is the voice of the hemp man who brought you into the underground factory before. 】
【At this time another voice sounded: "Well, I can't move now, and I need to concentrate on another body recently, so I entrust you with full authority to take care of the affairs in the meeting."】
【"What's the trouble in the Forgotten Land?" The voice of the stick man. 】
【It's a little troublesome. I was injured by the design of the fools, and those fools seem to have mastered the method of identifying us, and started searching with great fanfare." Another voice. 】
【"Then what are you going to do?"】
【"How long is the next opening of the space crack? I need a specific time."】
["According to the law, there are still 43 hours and 32 minutes for the space crack to open. This time it is a long-lost space crest. After opening, the crack will last for up to seven hours. After the crack ends, it will not open again for at least half a year in the future." The voice of the stick man. 】
["Yes, it seems that Tianshi is on our side, and then we only need to survive the probe of those fools for 43 hours... However, in order to avoid the space cracks being found by the fools in advance, during this period, let the core Other shadow emissaries in the 'sleeping' area, put some bait out from time to time, remember, be sure to throw the 'bait' in an area far away from the crack, to divert the attention of those fools." Another voice. 】
【"Yes... But, what about No. 14?" The voice of the stick man. 】
【"Number 14... just fell into the hands of someone who is not easy to mess with, so I can only give up temporarily..." Another person's voice was a little gnashing of teeth. 】
【"Then... the former residence of No. 14, do you need to send someone to monitor it? That person got No. 14, maybe he will investigate." The voice of the stick man. 】
【"Don't make extravagances! The residence of No. 14 is very close to the crack. Sending people over there may be discovered, but it will attract the fool's attention here."】
[Go and tell the other shadow emissaries that no one should approach the cracks recently. Everyone’s top priority right now is to **** me back to the Astral World safely. For this, everything else can be sacrificed...you understand what I mean Bar? "Another voice.]
【...Understood. Don't worry, President, I will persuade them to be a good bait with peace of mind, and I will give them a decent end later and let them return to the embrace of the Lord." The voice of the stick man. 】
【"Well, good." Another voice. 】
【The conversation ended here, and at the same time there was a sound of footsteps. 】
[Through the perspective of another sand spider, you can see the hemp man walking down from the high platform in the center of the Gu pool and falling into the Gu pool, but there is a golden silkworm nest fixed on his waist, and a golden silkworm nest is inside the silkworm nest. Silkworms are slowly wriggling. 】
【Under the deterrence of the golden silkworm, none of the surrounding Gu worms dared to approach the Ma Gan man, and consciously made way for him. The Ma Gan man followed the road and walked out of the Gu pool until the sound of footsteps disappeared into the darkness...】
Mu You patiently read the long paragraph of text without taking any action on the way.
He didn't expect someone to be standing on the platform next to the Gu pool, about tens of meters away from him. Fortunately, he was buried deep at the bottom of the worm tide, so he was not found, and by the way, he overheard the other party dialogue.
And this conversation is extremely informative.
First of all, the first point, the other party mentioned the space crack!
In other words, these shadow people have not been going back and forth to the earth through the gate, but through the space crack. They can even calculate the exact opening time of the space crack, and the next opening will be 43 hours later. Saturday morning.
This person seems to be planning to let his shadow escape when the space rift opens, and in order to achieve this goal, he even does not hesitate to use other shadow people as bait, just to prevent the space rift from being exposed in advance.
Secondly, this person just mentioned that he is now 'unable to move', that is to say, when the shadow man casts his shadow into another world, his body will enter a state similar to 'bed rest'. Moreover, this person seems to be the behind-the-scenes boss of the Undead Society, and he is not locked up with other shadow people, so it is necessary to pass the message through the stick man...
But having said that, since the boss of the Undead Society is very close to him now, there is only one person, and he is still in a state of being unable to move... then can he do it directly?
If you can directly kill the boss behind the scenes here, many problems will become much easier.
Thinking of this, Mu You immediately grabbed the pocket watch, and at the same time gave the game character the command to 'fight'.
[You realize that this is an excellent time to kill the opponent's leader, so you make a decisive decision, jump directly from the worm swarm, and appear, machine guns, cannons and other weapons emerge at the same time, aiming at the high platform next to the Gu pool, ready to fire fully open. 】
【However, before you can shoot your gun, in the darkness above the high platform, some kind of terrifying existence suddenly opened its eyes...】
【You are shrouded in a powerful coercion, you can't move, and your consciousness is blurred. 】
【You feel something coming towards you...】
【You are dead! 】
