Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 630 - 318: Missionary Jinmu, The Impostor Envoy_1
[You leave the monster’s belly and step towards that gloomy, quiet town. A short cry comes from behind, the farewell sound from ’Courier mole cricket’.]
[The gray light emitted by the unknown fungus on the stone wall is slightly dim, making the entire town look like a massive beast lurking in the darkness. You can only see a glimpse of the beast through the repressed dim light.]
[You are gradually approaching ’Tentacle City’...]
[There are no walls or ramparts at the edge of the town. The exposed streets and buildings all present a strong Gothic style with high-pointed roofs, buttress merlons, and large floral window glasses.]
[You step on the streets of ’Tentacle City’. The ground touch is soft, faintly revealing a weird ’activity’.]
[Just like the flesh and blood tissue you touched inside the ’Courier mole cricket’...]
[There are facilities resembling street lamps on both sides of the street. Each lamp post is irregular in shape, and there’s a small active flickering light source inside the lampshade at the top.]
[The town is silent, oppressively gloomy. You spot a gray figure lingering at the end of the street.]
[It walks aimlessly with a stagger, its large gray robe shields its figure and face, preventing you from seeing its true appearance.]
[Do you want to approach and chat?]
Divine Kingdom is the realm of the ’Desire Wet Nurse.’ You should switch to the abbot shell bearing the prefix ’Feathered’ to explore or interact.
But ’Tentacle City,’ a border town of Divine Kingdom, gives Lin Xun a very bad feeling.
After some deliberation, he decided to first use the ’Abbot’ shell to try and start a conversation and see if he could trigger an incident.
If anything seems off, he’ll immediately switch back to Star Lord Canis.
[You step forward, gradually approaching the gray figure...]
[It abruptly stops wandering, turns its head in unison towards you, and menacing, crazed eyes shine out from under its hood!]
[The gray figure lunges at you, sharp limbs flashing ominously under its robe...]
"I knew it!"
Lin Xun quickly switched shells.
[You possessed the body of ’Desire’s Star Lord Canis’!]
[You hold your sword fingers, the ’Rotating Stars Immortal Sword’ turns into a sharp sword light, cutting back and forth before and after the gray figure...]
[The gray figure is riddled with sword-light holes before it even gets close to you...]
[You defeated the ’Feathered City Guard’, and your experience value increases a little!]
[You received ’Unyielding Small Fragment of Spirituality’ *1]
[You got ’Guard’s Exoskeleton Mask’ (Rare Level Equipment)]
[You look at the fallen guard’s corpse...]
[’Feathered City Guard’: A guard who once steadfastly defended the border of the Divine Kingdom, but fell into madness for unknown reasons. Even facing a child who also believes in the ’Wet Nurse,’ it will attack without hesitation. It died due to a body full of sword-light holes. Compatibility: 85% (+55%)]
[Do you want to possess this shell?]
[You possessed the body of ’Feathered City Guard’!]
Lin Xun waited for a moment. When he didn’t see any memory recovery, he checked the panel as usual.
The panel of the city guard was much better than the abbot’s, with an attack skill called ’Scythe Blade Strike’.
Just looking at the panel, it was hard to know what this shell looked like, and the underworld game did not make a specific description of the appearance of the guard.
After some hesitation, he couldn’t resist his curiosity and materialized this shell in reality.
He glanced at the mirror and immediately deactivated the manifestation, taking a while before he finally calmed down and said, "Damn, curiosity killed the cat!"
"No wonder these guys have to wear masks, really... Even aliens from Mars would feel inferior in front of this appearance."
He made up his mind not to materialize the shells of this Chapter in the future unless necessary, and even when materializing, he would wear a mask, wrapped up tightly.
Lin Xun continued his exploration in ’Tentacle City’...
Although the architecture style of this town is similar to that of humans, the roads are interlaced in all directions, with many fork roads, like an ant’s nest, and basically every crossroad is guarded by guards wandering and waiting.
After a long period, he wandered around like a headless fly, not only did he not find a place to explore, but he also ended up back at the starting point of entering the town.
"Underworld game, do you think you can stump me like this?"
There are many methods to solve a maze, the dumbest is the brute force method, exploring every option one by one, and eventually, you will find the target.
Of course, Lin Xun had a better method, he switched to Star Lord Canis’s shell, preparing to soar with the sword...
[Suddenly, a figure jumps down from the rooftop by the street...]
[The figure is similar to the guards in that it was completely covered in robes, but what sets it apart is its stark black robe.]
[It calmly came before you, scrutinizing you through the black mask, and slowly spoke...]
[I haven’t seen an ’outsider’ in a long time. From the look of you... Hmm, you’re just a pathetic maggot man.]
[Poor maggot man, it generously decided to give you the chance to be a worm again.]
[The stranger leans in and asks in a whisper, do you know the origin of all life?]
[After some thought, you recall the information you gained earlier and answer tentatively, Desire Wet Nurse?]
[The stranger suddenly became furious, but managed to swallow his anger. He looked at you with disdain and a hint of pity...]
[Such a pitiful, stupid maggot man. How could that vile thing be the origin of all things?!]
