MTL - This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic-Chapter 381 a stray cat
Chapter 381 A stray cat
【You take out a bottle of powerful purification potion, give it to Uncle Jonas, and signal him to take it to expel Wolfsbane. 】
【Jonas wanted to refuse, but under your strong request, he had no choice but to take the potion. 】
【After the potion entered the body, Jonas's wounds healed a lot, but unfortunately the chamaejasma still exists in the body, and there is no sign of weakening. 】
"Invalid?"
Mu You frowned. He thought it was just an ordinary wolfsbane, and the dispelling potion should be effective.
Besides, what he gave was a powerful purification potion, which was a third-tier potion. Except for those permanent curses, ordinary toxins and curses could be removed directly.
As a result, it is completely useless in the face of this wolf poison? Is the priority of this poison so high?
【The banquet is over, you bid farewell to everyone, temporarily left home, and headed to the Undercity. 】
With the wolf poison incident, Mu You is going to go back to the city to find a werewolf first, and find out the bottom line of this wolf poison. After all, he will also need to deal with werewolves next, and may encounter this kind of poison.
This kind of toxin will not only make the wounds of vampires unable to heal, but also prevent the resurrection of vampires, which is a bit scary, like a restraint weapon specially made for vampires. The original mutual restraint relationship between werewolves will become one-way restraint. No matter how many vampires there are, it will be difficult to fight against werewolves.
And after communicating with the tribe just now, he already has an idea of how to catch the werewolf.
These werewolves no longer hid and stabbed humans, but adhered to the principle of "high-end hunters often appear as prey", and changed their disguise as prey to catch vampires.
Then he only needs to pretend to be a vampire hunting in the city, and wait for the werewolf to come to his door.
【You are hiding in a dark corner on the streets of the Undercity, waiting for the prey...】
Then keep this reminder in the game, and it took about half an hour before the change finally occurred.
【You heard footsteps coming from the street ahead, and they were getting closer. 】
【Tens of seconds later, a human woman in high heels walked past the alley. 】
【The moment the opponent passed the alley, you threw out the chain claw in your hand. 】
【The chain claws flew across quickly, and amidst the woman's exclamation, dragged her into the alley. 】
【You clamped down on the woman and bit her neck, but the mouth was filled with sweet and fragrant blood, and when you looked down, the woman under you had already passed out from fright. 】
【Obviously, this is just an ordinary human being. 】
"Backtracking..."
Mu You pressed the pocket watch.
【Time passed, you ignored the woman passing by in front, and continued to wait incognito. 】
This wait was more than ten minutes.
【After waiting for a long time, new footsteps finally came. This time it was a human male who passed the intersection, looking around in the same way, turning his head three times at every step, as if he was afraid that some strange monster would appear behind him. Walking at night in a multi-ethnic city like Undercity is always easy to encounter all kinds of bizarre events. 】
【The moment the opponent passed by, you threw out the chain claw again. 】
【The chain claw retracts, flying towards you with the prey at an extremely fast speed. 】
【The man was restrained by the chain claws. While in the air, his body shape had changed rapidly. He became taller at a speed visible to the naked eye. His whole body was quickly covered with gray hair, and the human head on top of his head also turned into a wolf's head. 】
【You hooked back a werewolf! 】
[Moon wolf (level 17) (werewolf form) (toxin-enhanced state): A type of werewolf whose combat power changes with the moon's profit and loss. and cannot return to human form). The moon wolf's blood has been inoculated with a certain kind of special venom, and it is in a state of toxin enhancement. The scratches and bites of the vampire will cause additional damage and poison it. Talents: Moon phases, attributes and abilities change with the phases of the moon. Abilities: Disembowelment, Berserk, Transformation, Wolfsbane Infusion. 】
There is no player logo, it seems that this is a werewolf native!
Mu You has already noticed that the other party's explanation specifically mentioned 'toxin enhancement', which means that this ability to restrain vampires is not born with it, but is planted with something similar to a virus, but This virus is not harmful to werewolves themselves, but is designed to attack vampires.
【The werewolf landed on the ground and saw the vampire in the shadows in front of him. He had a scheming smile on his face, opened his **** mouth, and directly turned on the berserk state, and rushed towards you with teeth and claws. 】
【You punched the werewolf on the head, and the werewolf let out a wail, and was beaten down at your feet like a dead dog. 】
【The werewolf looked up at you again with fear in its eyes. It has realized that it has kicked the iron plate, and the level of vampire in front of it is much higher than it! 】
【The werewolf immediately turned around and wanted to escape, but you overtook him at a faster speed, and punched him again, and a wolf tooth flew out of the werewolf's mouth with blood. 】
【You dragged the desperate werewolf back into the darkness...】
【After a battle without any suspense, the werewolf died tragically at the claws of your vampire. 】
【You killed Moon Wolf, experience value +17, lifespan +1, and you got 'Moon Wolf Skin Fragment'*1. 】
【You collected at the place where the moon wolf died and disappeared, and got a 'moon wolf fang' and a bottle of 'moon wolf venom'. 】
Started with things, Mu You didn't continue to stay nearby, took the two things out of the game, and then went offline.
In reality, Mu You took the bottle of dark green venom and the mace from the dagger into the space backpack, and sat down in front of his alchemy table.
Analysis of poisons, reverse configuration of antidote according to the composition of poisons, is also one of the professional fields of potion masters.
Before starting, Mu You first tested himself with a pocket watch, respectively in human form and vampire form, and drew an ordinary wound on his body with wolf teeth.
As expected, the wounds of the wolf teeth in the human form healed quickly without leaving any scars, while in the vampire form, no matter whether it was the passive recovery ability of the butcher wolf or healing magic such as holy light, it could not Healing wounds can only stop the bleeding at most, and at the same time, he also has a state of "chamaermasma in his body and cannot be revived".
Confirming this, Mu You pressed his pocket watch and went back to before he was injured, and then began to use various instruments to study the ingredients in the bottle of venom. The process was similar to the previous assessment by the Potion Society.
The result was rather embarrassing. Mu You could identify most of the ingredients in the venom, but there were still several ingredients that he didn't recognize at all.
No way, Mu You had no choice but to make a big move: Vivienne.
Vivienne quickly followed him to the table, using the levitation spell to control a drop of venom and spread it on the test paper.
After observing carefully for a while, Vivienne suddenly frowned and said, "The other party is a veteran poison maker, and the poison has been used in the 'vital blood', so it's normal if you don't see it."
"Living blood? Blood of a living person?" Mu You was taken aback, this was something he had never touched before.
"More than that, to be precise, it's 'retaining blood'. The blood of the dead and the blood that was forced to leave the body are useless. Only when the blood donor is fully cooperative and willing can he have the opportunity to take out the 'living blood' by himself. This kind of blood has the effect of restraining the same kind, and if the poison-making method is clever, it can indeed produce some powerful and highly targeted toxins."
"Oh..." Mu You nodded half understanding.
"You don't need to study this poison anymore." Vivian said suddenly.
"ah?"
"Because the poison of promoting blood circulation is used, there is generally no solution. Unless the blood donor himself is found, the blood in his heart is drained, and the heart is ground into powder, it is possible to develop an antidote to reverse the poison of promoting blood circulation." Wei Wei Vian said.
"So troublesome..."
Mu You sighed instinctively, but then realized something: "Wait, you just said... blood circulation is used to restrain the same kind?"
"That's right." Vivian nodded.
Mu You's expression became strange. The 'living blood' can only be taken out if the person is willing. Doesn't this mean that this kind of poison is from the hands of a blood clan?
That is to say, there are ghosts in the vampire family? Someone is taking the initiative to help the werewolves deal with the vampires!
This is where it gets interesting. Generally speaking, the blood clan is a group with a strong sense of racial honor. Because the ancestors are the same, no matter how far away the families are, they are still somewhat blood related to each other. There may be some power struggles internally, but the external interests are always quite consistent.
On the contrary, there is not such a strong bond between werewolves. Most werewolves maintain the habit of beasts, and they basically live in isolation. This is how they are called "lone wolves".
But now it’s the other way around, the werewolves are united under the leadership of the wolf king, but the inner ghost appeared first in the blood clan that should have been monolithic...
Mu You, who can't get out of the blood family, doesn't really care about it, even if it's someone else who is poisoned by wolf's poison, he wouldn't care about it at all.
However, the person who was poisoned was the blood relative of the vampire skin, and the uncle gave him a good impression. If there is a chance to catch the ghost, it is better to save it.
After a busy night, it was early morning, and the sky outside was already bright.
Mu You logged on to the forum, contacted Jiuyou with the account of Captain Ghost, handed over the evolution potion refined during this period, and wrote a request for new materials by the way.
In the list of materials this time, he deliberately added the item 'blood'.
He can buy blood himself, but buying blood in large quantities by himself is a bit too conspicuous, and it is easy to be seen as abnormal, so he simply leaves it to Jiuyou to solve it.
"Great God, do you have any specific requirements for the 'blood' you want?" Jiuyou quickly sent a message to ask.
"No, the hospital's ordinary standard blood bag is fine, and the blood donor's identity and blood type can be arbitrary, as long as it is a human being." Mu You said, and then added: "Don't worry, it's not for evil research... To put it simply , has something to do with the vampires in the game."
"Understood." Jiuyou breathed a sigh of relief. Don't blame him for being careful. After the era of superpowers, there are still some taboos about things like blood. If you give it out casually, there may be problems. And now that Mu You mentions vampires, he understands that they are just used as food.
finalized the materials with Jiuyou, and Mu You was just about to go back to take a rest, when another cell phone rang suddenly.
Mu You took it out and saw that it was an old-fashioned mobile phone given by Lu Yao.
"Have you returned to China?" After connecting the phone, Lu Yao's voice came from the opposite side.
"Well, back."
Mu You said: "Don't worry about the equipment I promised you, I will give it to you tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
He promised to give the other party a piece of blue equipment as a reward, but the previous times of the synthesis furnace were used to synthesize high-level potions, and the synthesis of equipment stagnated for a long time. It's easy to say, but it's not a problem to make a few pieces of blue equipment in a short period of time.
"Oh, there's no rush, you just need to remember."
Lu Yao didn't seem to be calling for this matter, so she paused for a while before asking, "Did you... have you raised a cat before?"
"Cat? I have raised one, why?" Mu You was taken aback.
The pet store also sold pet cats a long time ago, but those are commodities after all. If it is said that the cats he raises himself, there is only Coke.
"I saw a stray cat yesterday. It looks a bit like your short-haired cat... Uh, I can't say it's similar. The shape is quite different, but the pattern is a bit similar, so I'm not sure if it is. It's not from your family, but it's a pity that there was a rush and I didn't have time to take pictures..." Lu Yao said.
Mu You was startled when he heard that, Mei Duan...could it really be Coke? But wasn't Coke sent back to its owner long ago? How did it appear on Earth?
"Where's the cat?"
"Do you remember the conservation base for cute pets of the times? There is a special shelter for stray animals. I usually pick up some stray cats and dogs and send them there. The cat I saw in the base when I went there yesterday. " Lu Yao said.
"Okay, I'll go and have a look."
Mu You nodded. 'Moving Pets of the Times' was the nursery base where he bought the goods at the beginning, but after the shop was transformed into a magic pet shop, he never went there again.
Hung up the phone, Mu You immediately went out, riding a broom to the outskirts of the city.
The distance of dozens of kilometers is only a few minutes at full speed. After three months, I came to this animal base again.
The last time I came here, there was a long queue here, and you had to go through the door to get in, but this time, the gate was empty, and there were not many people in sight.
After the public beta, magic pets quickly became popular, while the popularity of the ordinary pet industry plummeted, and even these upstream pet bases were on the verge of bankruptcy.
Mu You didn't have time to feel emotional, so he went to the gate and the concierge to explain the situation.
"Beautiful shorts? Haven't we received any beautiful shorts recently?" The concierge, who was playing with his mobile phone, was a little confused after hearing this.
"Are you sure?"
"All the pets taken in in the past week are here, go in and have a look for yourself." The uncle directly handed him a registration form, and then continued to press his phone with his head down, cursing: "Your uncle, a slime like this Arrogant, eat me with an axe!"
Mu You had no choice but to enter the base with the list, and soon found the 'stray animal adoption area' in the base.
There are more people here, and many young men and women choose various cats and dogs as adoption targets in the base.
As soon as he entered the adoption area, Mu You immediately noticed a cat among the many animals.
It was a smooth fur and sweet-looking puppet, not only because of its good looks, but more importantly, it was the only animal on the scene that was not locked in a cage.
When Mu You came in, there were a lot of young girls surrounding the puppet, stroking it in various ways, and constantly sending out various compliments such as 'so cute' and 'so cute'.
And the puppet is also very cooperative, with its legs upturned, exposing its belly to be stroked, and its mouth is purring loudly.
"Well…"
When Mu You saw the appearance of this puppet, he immediately had a very familiar sense of déjà vu: If the current puppet was replaced with the chubby face of Coke, there would be no sense of disobedience.
"Cola?"
Mu You tried to call out.
The ears of the puppet, who was enjoying with his eyes closed in the distance, moved immediately, but he still didn't open his eyes, thinking it was an auditory hallucination.
"Cola!"
Until a louder call came, the whole cat of the puppet froze for a second, then suddenly a shock bounced from the ground, startling all the little girls around.
The puppet didn't care about these things, and hurriedly shook its head looking for something, and soon found Mu You standing at the door.
"Meow! Mu You!"
The puppet meowed, and the sound of Coke rang in Mu You's mind, and then the whole puppet also changed rapidly, turning into a scrawny, dirty beauty.
As soon as it changed back to Meishort, seeing its dirty appearance, a group of little girls around who had loved it just now immediately became disgusted, and many of them hurriedly checked their hands, only to find that their hands were full of stains.
Mei Duan no longer cared about others, and ran towards Mu You quickly, circling around his feet, and finally grabbed his lap, looking at him with tears in her eyes.
"Mu You, I've finally found you meow! Do you know what I've been through during this time? It's terrible meow!"
