This Text Adventure Game is definitely poisonous-Chapter 1609 - 689 World-Creating Mountain Emerges_2

The Medicinal Plant Gatherer and Ling Long were both separated from his body, so their reliability was naturally not a concern. Both of them, like the Watchman, had spent four thousand years in the Bitter Garden. These were genuine years of experience, not merely inherited memories, so there was no need to worry about their mental endurance.

As for the final conflict over divine power, it was even less of a problem for the clones. After all, the clones could not gain divine power to begin with. This choice of host for the power of a Jinchūriki seemed tailor-made for them.

The most ideal situation next would naturally be if Gusha could persuade the Mirage Tapir and Flaming Cow, so that the three avatars could each make a contract with a Beast of Catastrophe. This would give them much more confidence in facing the God of Chaos in the future.

"Huh? We have to go right now?" The Watchman scratched his head, somewhat troubled. "Doesn’t that mean we won’t be coming back for a long time?"

It was obviously impossible to find the Mirage Tapir and Flaming Cow through the game. Only Gusha himself could go to the Sky High World, and due to their connection, wherever Gusha went, he had to follow.

"Nonsense!" Gusha rolled his eyes at him. "In the future, you’ll have to get used to traveling in the wilderness with me for a long time. You’d better quickly adapt to our Disaster Beast lifestyle."

"Alright, alright, I’ve already adapted anyway." The Watchman shrugged, not complaining much. He was already prepared for this before signing the contract.

"Then stop wasting time and let’s get going!" urged Gusha, already eager to experience the feeling of freedom.

"I know, I know..." The Watchman smiled wryly, preparing to leave the underground.

"If something comes up, contact me through the Stone Plate."

Mu You handed a Gemini Stone Plate and a newly crafted ’Forbidden Garment’ to the Watchman.

Mu You had already explained the function of the Forbidden Garment to the clones.

Even with Gusha’s protection, it was hard to defend against something as formless and intangible as a Parasitic Beast. Having this made it much safer, and the Watchman accepted it gladly.

Mu You watched the Watchman fly out of the dark cave, then turned back to gaze at the Seal Spear lying on the ground in the distance.

Mu You walked forward, summoned the Kirin Arm, and lifted the Holy Spear again, attempting to place it into his inventory.

This divine artifact was a universal artifact with no class restrictions, usable by anyone who acquired it.

Successfully equipped, the gigantic Holy Spear automatically shrank to a size suitable for humans.

However, although the size reduced, the weight did not decrease at all. Mu You tried to hold the spear single-handedly, but without utilizing the Kirin Arm’s ’immense strength’ feature, he couldn’t even keep it level!

It should be noted that after his journey in Jie Lin, Mu You’s strength attribute had significantly increased. Besides, the Scarlet Battle Armor provided him with boosts in strength and speed comparable to those of a wild man.

Even in such circumstances, the spear was still too heavy for him; using it with one hand was difficult, probably requiring both hands for a more comfortable swing.

"A two-handed spear, huh..."

Mu You glanced at his hands. His right hand had the Kirin Arm, allowing him to directly touch the Seal Spear, but the problem was with his left hand.

"Looks like I need to get another Kirin Arm..."

To withstand the sealing power of the Holy Spear, only the special effects of the Kirin Arm would suffice.

Fortunately, he had previously acquired many Wind Kirin Scales. While it might not be enough to forge a complete Kirin Arm, it should be sufficient for crafting gloves or something similar.

Mu You made up his mind; once he got home, he would have the Medicinal Plant Gatherer make a pair of ’Kirin Gloves’.

Then both hands could touch the spear, and this Holy Spear could almost be used as a weapon. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

...

A few hours later, Mu You returned to Earth, directly teleporting back to the basement of the pet shop.

Upon stepping out of the basement, it was already deep into the night. The house was dark, with no lights on.

Just as he entered the living room, Mu You noticed a figure sitting at the distant desk, holding a phone, with the light from the screen flickering.

At first, Mu You instinctively thought it was the Medicinal Plant Gatherer, still burning the midnight oil.

But when he got closer and turned on the light near the wall, filling the room with illumination, he realized it was Lin Xue sitting there.

Next to Lin Xue’s chair was someone else curled up—Mian Mian, covered with a blanket, legs bent as she slept with her head on Lin Xue’s lap.

When the light came on, the intense brightness seemed to bite into the little girl like sunlight to a Vampire. She let out a pained groan as her features scrunched up, unable to bear opening her eyes. She just kicked her legs a few times in protest.

Mu You quickly turned off the light, allowing the room to return to darkness, at which point the little girl finally settled.

"Little Snow? Why didn’t you go back?"

Mu You walked up to ask.

Both of them had Night Vision, so the darkness didn’t matter. The reason he hadn’t recognized them was because his eyes hadn’t yet adjusted after coming back from outside.

Lin Xue put down the phone, a trace of hesitation appearing on her face. "I encountered something... and I’m not sure if I should talk about it..."

"What’s there to be unsure about? Just say it directly." Mu You pulled a chair to sit across from her.

Lin Xue nodded and said, "I sensed it, the aura of the other half of the Grim Reaper!"

"Oh? On Earth?" Mu You raised an eyebrow.

Lin Xue’s original inheritance of the Grim Reaper wasn’t complete; a portion of an arm had gone to another heir of the Grim Reaper, known as Red Sleeve.

So the ’other half of the Grim Reaper’ she mentioned clearly referred to Red Sleeve’s aura.

"No, a game character. The prompt was triggered in the Sky High World."

Lin Xue said, "The strange thing is, this kind of aura theoretically shouldn’t just leak out messily... unless the other party is actively releasing it, trying to lure me in..."

"I see..."

Mu You nodded, no wonder Lin Xue hesitated. Such an overt signal could very well be a trap.
