MTL - This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic-Chapter 382 Vampire Society
Chapter 382 Vampire Society
Soon the administrator here came after hearing the news. Mu You took Coke and explained to the administrator that this was just his cat.
Coke was not registered at all. To be precise, it sneaked in to eat and drink.
The administrator also found out after watching the surveillance that this cat had sneaked in here a week ago, probably because he didn’t want to be locked up in the cage. It will appear quietly, and then eat other kittens' cat food through the cage. Occasionally, when the adopters come to see the cat, it will also take the opportunity to appear, acting cute and grabbing some cat snacks or something.
However, whenever an adopter takes a fancy to it and wants to adopt it back, the cat will immediately flee the scene and run away after eating and drinking, which is a complete 'scumbag' behavior.
After Muyou showed some evidence of raising Coke in the past, proving that this was indeed his cat, the person in charge here didn't make things difficult, and asked him to take the cat away.
A moment later, Mu You returned to the pet shop with Coke.
As soon as he returned to a familiar place, Coke meowed excitedly, rushed into the hall and ran wildly, marking smells everywhere.
"Don't pee, and don't go upstairs, wait until I give you a bath first."
Mu You hastily told him that this guy didn't know how he got here these days, his body was so dirty that he even had fleas.
Seeing that Mu You was going to put water in the pet bathroom, Coke rushed to the cat food machine and patted the empty food bucket.
"Mu You, some cat food first! Cat food!"
Mu You had no choice but to open a bag of cat food for it first.
"Clatter..."
As the cat food machine came out of the food, Coke immediately buried his head in the cat bowl and drank the food, trembling from the deliciousness: "Yes, this is the taste! Those stray cats eat what kind of garbage food, and it really is your food The best..."
While wolfing down, Coke remembered something again, and hurriedly raised his head and begged Chao Muyou: "Hurry up, Muyou, mobile phone, give me your mobile phone, I want to go online!"
"Where's your phone?"
"My phone was soaked in water the day you left..." Coke looked like he was undergoing withdrawal from Internet addiction.
Mu You had no choice but to get a spare phone and throw it to play with it before going into the bathroom by himself.
"...so many new animations have been updated this month... Well, the pesticide has a new skin..."
Coke buried his head in the cat bowl while cooking, and at the same time held the phone in front of his face, scratching the screen with his two paws non-stop, his eyes and mouth were in charge of their own affairs, and he was extremely busy.
At this moment, Mianmian walked out of the bedroom on the second floor with her pillow in her arms, rubbing her sleepy eyes: "Muyou, what is so noisy..."
Hearing a series of strange sounds below, Mianmian yawned and walked down the stairs.
But as soon as she came to the first floor, she saw a cat food machine not far away, a cat was sticking its **** and buried its head in cooking, while it was still skillfully playing with its mobile phone with its two cat paws.
Mianmian was taken aback for a moment, then woke up instantly, looked at the cat in disbelief, and was stunned in place.
At this moment, Coke also noticed the girl who was going down the stairs in the distance, her movements froze for a moment, she turned her head, and after looking at each other for a second, Coke's hair all over her body burst into bursts, her ears were pressed tightly to the back of her head, her spine was raised high, The eyes of the blood wheel were frightened.
It's not the girl that makes it scary, of course, but what's behind the girl.
In the shadow behind the girl, a dark human figure quietly emerged, baring its teeth and claws at Coke, and let out threatening growls one after another.
Shadow Ghost’s sense of oppression is certainly not something that Coke, who has no combat power, can bear. Coke was so frightened that he ran away with his tail between his legs, turned around and slipped into the bathroom all the way.
Seeing Mei Duan fleeing, the little girl came to her senses and hurriedly chased after her.
Chased into the pet bathroom, only to find that Mu You was inside, and the cat was hiding under the bath and shivering.
"Muyou, this cat has become a spirit, it can play with mobile phones!" The little girl hastily pointed at Meishou and complained to Muyou.
"I know. It's called Coke. It's my cat. It was lost before and I just found it."
It was only at this time that Mu You remembered that the two didn't know each other. When the little girl came to the store for the first time, the Coke just happened to be sent away.
"Muyou, who is she? Why are there strangers living in our territory?" At this time, Coke's voice also rang in Muyou's head.
"Her name is Mu Mianmeng, you can call her Mianmian. As for the thing behind her, you don't have to be afraid, as long as you don't mess with it, it won't attack you." Mu You introduced it.
"Mu..."
Coke looked at him in shock when he heard the words: "How long have I been away, and you already have a daughter?"
"It's just an adopted daughter." Mu You shook his head.
"boss…"
At this time, Xiaoya also just came to work, opened the door and entered the store, saw the little girl standing in front of the bathroom door, subconsciously walked over to take a look, and was immediately surprised.
"Cola?!"
"Meow…"
Coke saw Xiaoya, and immediately responded weakly from the bottom of the bath, but unfortunately there was a shadow ghost blocking it outside, so it didn't dare to show its head.
"Why is Boss Coke back?"
Xiaoya walked in in surprise, knelt down by the bathtub, and wanted to hold Coke out, but when she saw Coke clearly, her surprise suddenly turned into shock: "Coke, why are you so thin?"
The current Coke has changed greatly from when it left before, from the fat cat with all over the body to the current skinny look, which looks like it has suffered serious abuse.
"Meow…"
Cola immediately cooperated and let out an aggrieved voice begging for comfort.
Xiaoya couldn't help looking at Muyou and asking.
Mu You sighed: "It's a long story, let's wash it first."
"oh…"
Xiaoya hurriedly carried Coke out, put it into the bathtub, took out the tool, and cleaned it skillfully.
While washing, the two also listened to Coke's intermittent description of its experience during this period.
It turned out that after it was sent back to the academy, its owner, Fu Ya, quickly brought it back to its hometown, and accepted the 'plane reset' ceremony in the ancestral home to help it get rid of the influence of the door.
However, before this ceremony can be performed, it needs to get rid of the otherworldly substances in its body first, so that it can return to its original state of magic power.
So the first thing it needs to do is lose weight.
However, because Coke takes in too many substances on the earth, it will take a long time to get rid of them all, and time is precisely what they lacked most at that time, because every day the amount of Coke is doubled. Therefore, its owner could only take some radical measures, using some kind of secret method to replace all the flesh and blood in its body, sucking it into a 'cat dry' in almost a day, and finally reached the ceremony requirements.
In the end, the conversion ceremony was successfully completed, but the Coke was smoked half to death, especially in order to prevent it from rebounding, its owner strictly controlled its diet and work and rest, and there was little water in the soup every day. Not used to it.
Cola couldn’t stand it any longer, cat food withdrawal and internet withdrawal occurred at the same time, making it feel that the cat’s life was hopeless, and life was worse than death every day.
One day, Coke was so greedy that he couldn't take it anymore, and wanted to steal some of the cat food that Muyou had left for him, but his owner found out and destroyed the cat food directly. This scene caused Coke to completely collapse. In grief and indignation, it chose to run away from home, but it did not go far, hiding and playing near the ancestral house.
Later, when it was chasing butterflies, it found a dry well in the backyard of the ancestral house. This well made him feel a little familiar. Driven by curiosity, he jumped down to have a look. When it climbed out, it found that the surrounding scene changed suddenly, and it actually returned to the forgotten land!
After that, it began its wandering life on earth.
Coke couldn't find the address of the pet store, and was afraid that the bad guys would catch it and sell it. He didn't dare to communicate with strangers, so he could only wander around in the street, trying to meet an acquaintance, but of course it didn't turn out that way. Easy, after being hungry for two days, it foraged for food all the way, found the nursery base in the suburbs, found that there was food and drink there, and lived there, living on food and drink every day.
"So pathetic, Coke!"
Xiaoya's heart softened after hearing this.
Mu You was thinking about what it said just now.
"You mean, the dry well in the backyard of your master's hometown is directly connected to a certain dry well in K City?" Mu You looked at Coke and asked.
Cola said that it entered the well and then came out, and the surroundings changed from the astral world to the earth. This could only be the effect of space cracks.
"It's meow! And I remembered it as soon as I came here. The last time I was brought back to the ancestral house by the master, when I was out to play, I was swept into the dry well by a gust of wind, and ended up here!" Coke nodded hastily.
"Then you didn't try to go back into the well after that?" Mu You asked. If the well is really a space crack, it stands to reason that if you can come here, you should be able to go back at any time.
"Of course I tried meow, I tried several times, but no matter what posture I jump into the well, I can't return to the astral world." Cole said.
"Oh?" Mu You frowned after hearing this, isn't it a space crack?
He couldn't figure out anything after thinking about it here, so Mu You planned to go to the scene to see for himself.
After Xiaoya cleaned up Coke, Mu You took it out, and Vivienne followed.
The two searched for a long time under the guidance of Coke, and finally found the so-called 'dry well' in a barren mountain forest in the northern suburbs of K City.
This dry well is located on a mountainside, surrounded by overgrown weeds, and the mouth of the well has been completely covered by weeds. If there is no guidance from Coke, even if he passed by here, he would not be able to find a well here.
Mu You lifted the weeds, and there was indeed a square wellhead below. The interior was built with irregular stones. It was about ten meters deep, and the inside was pitch black. A pinch of crumbs.
Mu You collected some of these wood chips and wrapped them in paper, and prepared to take them back to study.
Then he took out his wand, condensed the light technique, jumped into the well, stepped on the wall of the well and slipped to the bottom of the well.
Sure enough, as Coke said, the bottom of the well is flat and nothing unusual.
"Look with your heart's eye." Vivian reminded at this time.
Mu You hurriedly closed his eyes and opened his mind.
In the perspective of the mind's eye, the surrounding scene has changed.
Under the bottom of the well he was stepping on, there was indeed a faint blue space crack, which was very similar to the cracks I saw in Japan before, but to him, or to the earth, this crack was just a piece of space. The illusory projection cannot be touched at all.
"What is this?" Mu You asked strangely.
"This is a 'permanent space crack' that has been artificially stabilized." Vivian said.
"Permanent?" Mu You was taken aback: "It means it won't close, and you can freely move between the two sides at any time?"
"Yes." Vivienne glanced at the crack below: "However, this crack has been tampered with and sealed into a one-way crack, which can only come here from the astral world, but go from here. No star spirit world."
"It turns out that..."
Mu You nodded, no wonder Coke came over without hindrance, but couldn't go back, this well is actually one-way.
"Can this seal be lifted?" Mu You asked again.
"I can't solve it, the sealing method is very clever." Vivienne said solemnly, and then added: "At least I don't have this ability."
"Understood." Mu You nodded, since even Vivienne couldn't do anything about it, it must not be something he can solve in a short time.
Immediately, Mu You left the dry well, found some large stones from the surroundings, buried the dry well layer by layer, and treated the surface until no traces could be seen at all.
I don’t know who drilled this well for the time being, but since it is connected to the ancestral house of the owner of Coke, it must be related to her family. You can ask her when you see her in the game.
…
At night, in the pet shop, Mu You re-logged into the game.
The time in the game came to 7:00 p.m., the scheduled time for the Sanguine Clan Association, and Mu You and his cheap sister arrived at the place on time.
【You and Mai came to the 'Abandoned Dark Church'. 】
[The Dark Church is the former site of the Holy Light Church, located in the 'North Street of the Old City', but after the Great Migration of the Undercity thousands of years ago, the residents collectively moved to the new city, the old city was completely abandoned, and now it is filled with all kinds of ghosts and insects The territory of monsters. This dark church is also one of the abandoned buildings. 】
[In today's old city, there is a thin white mist. This is the mist created by the heart of the mist. It will make outsiders who stray into it get lost in the mist. This guarantees the smooth holding of the vampire clan meeting. 】
The Heart of the Mist was handed over to Uncle Jonas by Muyou in the morning. According to him, the Heart of the Mist is a treasure belonging to all the blood races, but the custody right was awarded to Liston, who has made great achievements in battle, by the former Duke. So after the clan meeting is over, Mu You can go to the Duke of the vampire to get it back.
【In front of the church gate, blood race participants from major families showed up one by one, greeted each other, and after being verified by the vampire at the door, entered the church one by one. 】
【You and Mai pass the review and step into the church. 】
[At this time, an exaggerated long table has been set up in the church. The long table is full of delicacies and delicacies. In addition to the main seat, there are 72 seats on both sides, representing 72 families. After the seat there is a second seat. 】
【You and Mai found the location of your Rhine family at the end of the long table, in a very inconspicuous corner. 】
This seat order is based on the existing strength of each family, and the Rhine family did not report the news of Liston's return. In the eyes of outsiders, the most powerful family in their family is a viscount. It is normal to be ranked at the bottom. .
Of course, Mu You didn't care about sitting in the back at all. He didn't even intend to sit at the head of the family. Instead, he was going to let Mai show his face. He took the second seat to hide. After all, he wasn't sure if there were other players in this meeting. participate.
If there are players, the players can recognize each other at a glance.
【When you sat down, you let your younger sister Mai sit at the head of the family on the grounds of lack of memory and unfamiliarity with the situation. 】
【You sat behind her and activated the hermit card. 】
【As the number of people in the church increased, after a while, all family members finally gathered. 】
【The only surviving Duke of the blood clan, Vanjo Brand walked into the venue, sat at the head of the long table, and announced the official start of the clan meeting. 】
The clan meeting started, and Mu You was also quickly checking the information of everyone in the hall at this time.
The vampires present were basically the most elite group of vampires. Mu You made a simple count. There were a total of one duke and seven marquises, each of whom belonged to different families. There were more earls, forty There were as many as six, but a few of them were sitting in the second seat. There were only thirty-nine earls who truly represented the highest title of the family.
As for the rest of the family, the highest status is only the viscount.
Therefore, the family status of the blood clan is naturally divided into three levels according to their titles: the eight marquis and duke families belong to the upper-class families and hold most of the right to speak; the thirty-nine earl families are middle-class families and belong to the blood clan The mainstay of the family; and the last twenty-five viscount families are low-level families, basically all of which are sparsely populated, without the protection of masters, and may disappear at any time.
As a result, after looking around, Mu You did not find the existence of other players, and all the players on the scene were aborigines!
【Duke Brand took out ten containers containing blood drops, and announced the first topic of the clan meeting today: the distribution plan for the ten drops of ancestor blood. 】
【"Below an earl, each promotion requires only one drop of the ancestor's blood, while from an earl to a marquis, three drops of the ancestor's blood are required, and from a marquis to a duke, ten drops are required."】
【"According to the rules left by the ancestor before his death, in order to improve the strength of the tribe most efficiently, ten drops of blood will be distributed in the form of 331111."】
[Brand took the lead in distributing three bottles of blood drops and put them aside: "First of all, the first batch of these three drops of ancestor blood will be distributed to the earl family that has made the highest comprehensive contribution to my blood family in the past thousand years. The nominated families have : The Vagro family, the Mecca family, and the Ferrato family, these three families maintain the stability of the group in intelligence, economy, and enemy defense. The family patriarch votes to decide."]
Mu You watched texts pop up.
The distribution of blood drops in this clan association seems to be quite principled. The ten drops of blood are not directly monopolized by those high-ranking families, but are going to be given priority to families below the Marquis.
Because among the rules of titles, there is one: each time a person with a high title is promoted, he can give up to three drops of heart blood. The rule of helping other blood relatives of the same family to upgrade only applies to blood relatives with the same surname.
For example, for the Rhine family, if Muyou gets blood drops and is promoted to Marquis, he can share three drops of heart blood to help Mai Yi and Uncle Viscounts upgrade to Earls, and after they are upgraded, they can continue Divide their hearts and blood, and help other barons in the family to be promoted to viscounts.
Therefore, as long as the leader of each family is promoted once, the whole family can be promoted to a higher level.
331111, that is to say, to be distributed to two earl families and four viscount families.
Earl Muyou needs three drops of blood to be promoted to Marquis. He must be useless for the first three drops of blood. His skin has been sleeping for a thousand years, and it has not made any contribution to the blood race.
Now he is aiming at the distribution of the second batch of the three drops of blood.
