This Text Adventure Game is definitely poisonous-Chapter 1187 - 535 Coffin of Cain_3

"And you, with your ’Innate Absorption,’ are the only person I know of who has this potential," Mansour finally revealed his true purpose for seeking you out, "Join us, and we will help you collect all the talents, making you the true Vampire King!"

You looked at him, puzzled, and asked, "Aren’t you afraid that after I gain power, I will become the new Regent King?"

"No, because I know that you outsiders, who come from another world, will mysteriously disappear after half a year, returning to your own world. Only outsiders like you won’t be intoxicated by the power here."

"We guarantee that within one month, we will help you gather all the Blood Rhythms, and you will lead us to overthrow the Regent King’s rule. With the remaining time, you can enjoy the decadent life of a king here. After half a year, when you abdicate and leave, you will return to us a Vampire City where everyone is equal. I think this is a fair deal," said Mansour.

"emmm..."

Mu You’s expression was bizarre. He hadn’t expected his character to be so popular in this scenario, with every faction trying to woo him and even willing to offer the throne.

Mu You shook his head. As good as these words sounded—better even than the conditions offered by the Regent King—it was a pity. Katerina had already told him, he had no friends here; anyone who tried to woo him was only out to use him.

Mansour had sincerely extended his invitation, and you decide...

You politely declined, saying that the matter was too significant to make an immediate decision, and you needed some time to think it over.

"Of course, that is only right. Whenever you are ready, you can come and find me," Mansour didn’t insist on your staying, smiling as he saw you off the ship.

You took a small boat back to shore, releasing your superpowers, not noticing anyone following behind.

You choose to go...

First, Mu You made his way to the Regent King’s residence to report in.

...You arrived outside the Regent King’s reception hall, where you could hear the sound of a noisy argument coming from inside.

"...Mad Jack, a first-generation vampire, it can’t be wrong, it must be that servant of Cain!"

"Cain is emerging, the prophecy of ’Fire Burn Doomsday’ is about to come true, and soon we’re all doomed..."

"Calm down, Cabasha, Katerina wasn’t as reckless as you when she managed the Death Whisperer..."

"But she’s already dead, becoming the first victim of the Fire Burn Doomsday!"

"Damn it, we Transformers don’t believe in any ’Fire Burn Doomsday.’ These prophet’s nonsense prophecies have never come true..."

"Exactly, a first-generation vampire? Too far-fetched. The second-generation vampires have been extinct for how many years now, who would believe such ghost stories? If he’s out there, let him come to me!"

...

The hall continuously echoed with indistinct arguing voices, some of which were familiar to you.

Not until several minutes later did the arguing finally stop, then the doors were thrown open, and a dozen high-ranking vampires came out one after another, their faces showing worry, anxiety, or cold laughter as they left the building.

Only then did you enter the hall.

At that moment, the Regent King was sitting behind his desk, massaging his forehead with a headache while the masked man stood respectfully behind him.

"You’ve come," the Regent King’s sullen face brightened upon noticing your arrival, returning to his usual calm demeanor, and with a smile, he said to you, "Well, did you find the Stone Coffin?"

You decide...

Tell the truth, informing the Regent King of everything that happened tonight.

Conceal the matter of you and Mansour.

Mu You raised an eyebrow. With only two options given, he was certain it was the Admin who had intervened. After triggering both factions’ scenarios, it seemed that the Admin wanted to forcefully make the player choose.

It wasn’t hard to understand, really: these two options represented either joining the Regent King or the Reformers.

Regardless of which side was chosen, the player would acquire a comfortable environment and treatment for the next half a year, yet there was also the risk of being overthrown by the opposing side. Therefore, no matter which faction was joined, the player had to fully assist their side in overthrowing the other.

Unfortunately, Mu You wasn’t planning to join either side; he just wanted to go on being Jack, scare people daily, collect some Blood Rhythms, and watch the drama unfold from the sidelines.
