Chapter 162 The Elven Horn (6200 words)

   "Fuck, she has eaten all the bait!"

   Mu You looked at the empty bait pocket in the fishing net and was speechless.

  His bait filled with sleeping potion is specially reserved for magic fish. He also dreamed of catching fish in a net, but he was eaten up by one fish, and it was a mermaid...

  If this mermaid was caught by ordinary fishermen or slave traders, I am afraid that Noh would be crazy.

  A Nicaro mermaid that looks similar to humans and is not cannibalistic will definitely fetch a sky-high price when auctioned! No matter how poor the fishermen are, they can get rich and reach the pinnacle of life with this mermaid.

   But to Mu You, this thing is not so beautiful, but a hot potato.

   When the mermaid was in his hands, the most he could do was ask her for some fish scales to refine medicine, and it had no other effect.

  The two choices of ordinary people, killing and selling, are unworkable for him. People who have killed mermaids will be contaminated with a smell that only mermaids can recognize. After being discovered by other mermaids, they will be madly retaliated.

   It is the same if he is sold, once he is discovered, he will be hated by the Mermaid Clan for life, which means that he must stay away from the ocean in the future, otherwise the Mermaid Clan, as the overlord of the sea, will not let their enemies go in the water.

   Mu You has just inherited the Ghost, and will inevitably have to deal with sea water for a long time in the future. This kind of thing that will cut off the road must not be done.

  The options left to him right now are to take it back and raise it, or to put it on the spot.

   But Mu You looked at the sleeping mermaid in the net bag, and he wasn't sure when the mermaid ate the bait, and how long he was going to sleep for?

   Just throw it here, and it is very likely that other fishermen will find it and take it away and sell it.

   "Forget it, let's take it back first..."

   After thinking about it, Mu You decided to bring the mermaid back to Earth, at worst, and release it the next time he comes.

   In other words, finding such a mermaid is not all bad. Mermaids are intelligent life after all, they can communicate, and they don't hate fools like wizards in the astral world.

  If you can build a good relationship with the mermaid tribe, you may be able to ask them for help if you encounter various troubles in the sea in the future.

   Mu You took the whole fishing net into his backpack and found a puddle on the grass to put it there.

  After such a big commotion, the mermaid was still sleeping unconscious, showing no sign of waking up, which shows how powerful the sleeping potion is.

   Then he moved the packed materials in the backpack, mainly bait and wine, and some experimental equipment, and moved them out to store next to the teleportation array on the seabed. Then he put away the backpack, stepped into the teleportation array, and returned to the northern snowfield.

  Suddenly returned to the ice field from the bottom of the water, and the howling cold wind immediately covered him with frost. Mu You hurriedly set a small circle of fire to disperse the moisture on his body.

   "Boss, you are back!"

  At this moment, Lin Xue and Xiaoya were already wearing plush coats and waiting for him at the door, while the war eagle was circling in the sky, inspecting the surrounding environment.

   "Nothing happened at home, right?"

   Mu You patted the frost on his body, and glanced at the two of them. After a day of leveling, Lin Xue and Xiaoya's levels had improved significantly.

   "No, Sister Xue and I have been brushing monsters all day, and we have almost finished brushing all the wild monsters we can find around..." Xiaoya quickly explained their experience of the day.

  They need little experience to upgrade in the early stage, and with the support of Warhawk, there are basically no monsters that cannot be defeated on the snowy field, and the upgrade speed is fast.

   Halfway through, Lin Xue and Xiaoya changed classes, and Xiaoya came out to brush monsters for a long time. In the end, both of them broke through to level six, and Lin Xue was even close to level seven.

"That's good."

   Mu You nodded, opened the backpack at the door, entered and took out all the things in it.

   This backpack will become unable to open when it returns to the opposite side of the door. You can only take out the things in advance and bring them in the door yourself.

   Seeing that there were only five minutes left before the closing time, Lin Xue and Xiaoya hurried out to help carry things.

  However, when they saw Mu You carrying a mermaid out at the end, both of them were stunned in surprise.

   "Boss, you actually kidnapped a mermaid back???" Xiaoya's mouth became O-shaped.

   "I said it was picked...do you believe it?" Mu You said sincerely.

  The two looked at each other, with quite the same expression: I don't believe it!

  The legendary mermaid would not be so precious if it could be picked up anywhere.

Mu You himself didn't know how to explain it. He felt that this little mermaid seemed to be more dull than normal mermaids. After being trapped by a fishing net once, he dared to throw himself into the net, and he was also greedy. He dared to eat things he didn't know. Blindly stuffing it into his mouth, he didn't have the vigilance that intelligent creatures should have at all.

  The three returned home, Mu You called Zhan Ying back, and waited at the door for the time to run out.

   After confirming that the door was completely closed, I asked Vivienne to seal the door back into the secret card.

At this time, Lin Xue and Xiaoya had brought the mermaid into the backpack space, found a shallow water fish tank in the store, put the mermaid in it, and filled the tank with river water from the river. It is said that the mermaid cannot leave for a long time Water is coming, I don't know if it is, but let her soak it first.

When Mu You came in, Lin Xue and Xiaoya were already in front of the fish tank, watching the mermaid curiously and pointing. Even unicorns and mandrakes came to join in the fun. This kind of wisdom that has lived underwater for a long time Organisms, to which they are also entirely new species.

   "Boss, what's going on?" Seeing Mu You coming in, Xiaoya hurried over to gossip with him, and Lin Xue also pricked up her ears to listen carefully.

   "Actually, it's not as complicated as you think..."

   Mu You had no choice but to explain the cause and effect to the two of them.

   "It turns out that..."

   After hearing this, both of them looked at the mermaid with strange expressions.

   "This mermaid, isn't his brain working well..." Xiaoya asked suspiciously. How did such a stupid mermaid survive till now?

   "Probably... too confident..."

Lin Xue thought for a while and said: "This mermaid has lived near the sea for a long time, and has seen many fishermen's fishing nets. After breaking free from fishing nets many times, she may have assumed that such nets are not dangerous, but she did not expect that there is such a thing as sleeping potion... "

   Mu You nodded. What Lin Xue analyzed was probably the truth. Things like sleeping potions were indeed not something that the fishermen at the bottom of the astral world could produce.

   Moreover, judging from the performance of Coke, we can see that this kind of bait produced on the earth and added with attractants must be very attractive to these alien creatures, which attracted a mermaid to take the bait.

   At this moment, the mermaid is still sleeping, and she doesn't know how long she will sleep, so she can only wait for her to wake up.

   Put everything on Mu You's side, leave the space, and send Lin Xue and Xiaoya home.

   Then he took out the three mobile phones and looked at them separately.

  No one contacted him that day, only Zhang Yang sent a few messages, saying that there were a few small tasks, asking him if he was interested in participating or something.

  While processing the news from Zhang Yang, Mu You opened the game of fools.

  The game was launched, and it was still next to the teleportation array outside Sunset City.

  Mu You first sent a series of props such as the murloc mask into the game, armed the game characters, and then went to pick up the supplies stored next to the teleportation array, and put them all into the backpack.

   Then he surfaced, found a deserted place on the shore, and took out another prop: the fairy horn!

   This is the hidden relic snatched from the werewolf at the beginning. It can summon elves and fairies. It can be used once a week. When I first got it, there was still a five and a half day cooldown. It just ended at 12:00 noon today.

   But at that time, he was busy on the boat in the sea and had no time to check it. Now that he was free, he immediately took it out and activated the horn.

  【You sounded the horn of the elves. 】

  【Dark Elf Queen Fred Exile appeared in front of you and issued a mission to you. 】

[Looking for sunflowers: Since the dark elves live in the dark city underground for a long time and cannot accept direct sunlight, I hope you will go to the sunny place in the hottest city of the star spirit world within a week to pick more than a hundred flowers Sunflowers, as the sun for the Undercity. 】

  【Reward: Wings of Darkness, a pair of devil's young wings, which can give you the ability to fly after loading. 】

"Um?"

   Mu You stared blankly, and blew the horn, but what appeared was not the elf fairy in his imagination, but some dark elf queen?

   Before he had time to think, he hurriedly pressed the time pocket watch and returned to before the horn was sounded.

   Carefully recalling the text description just now, Mu You found a pen and paper, and wrote down a few paragraphs.

   "Dark elves, Undercity, the mission is to pick flowers in the Sun City..."

  Mu You opened the Fool’s Forum, and searched for ‘Scorching Sun City’ on the World Channel. This search easily yielded results: Lie Sun City is a city located near the equator in the Astral World, which in reality corresponds to a certain place in Africa…

  The equator of the astral world, is that a place that can be visited in a week?

Although the reward is not bad, giving a pair of wings, it is basically impossible for him to complete the task. The distance is too far, and it is absolutely impossible to arrive within a week in the game. In reality, unless he knows Africa, The player next to him, ask someone to collect it in advance, and then he will fly all the way to get it?

   Not to mention how to trust each other? How should the price be assessed for such a complicated task? There are too many troubles.

   After thinking for a while, Mu You blew the horn again.

  The promised elf fairy did not appear, but a dark elf came out. He always felt that this mission was not right: there should be many elf mission releasers, right?

   Sure enough, what happened next verified his guess.

  【Back in time, you sounded the elven horn. 】

  【The high priest of the forest elves, Riley Piper, appeared in front of you and issued a mission to you. 】

  【Life Potion: A rare lesion has developed on a bud somewhere in the World Tree, which requires a bottle of high-grade life potion to restore vitality. Within five days, bring back a bottle of life potion above epic level. 】

  【Reward: Fengxing Bow, a rare elf longbow, mastering the power of wind, can shoot powerful wind arrows. 】

   Mu You's eyes lit up, and there were indeed other elves!

   Moreover, the task this time is much more normal, all they need is a bottle of life potion, which is only a first-level potion, but the difficulty lies in the potion above the 'epic level'.

   You must know that Mu You has never successfully refined an epic-level potion so far. Of course, if you are willing to use some Zuixianjiu, you may have a chance to refine it.

  However, he doesn’t really need this task reward. He already has a mithril bow, which is enough for daily use. Another high-quality bow will not improve him much.

   Mu You shook his head, went back in time again, and tried to blow the horn a few times again.

  【Back in time, you sounded the elven horn. 】

  【The Queen of the Sun Elf, Selina Sunshine, appeared in front of you and issued a mission to you. 】

  【Catch the flying dragon alive: Within a week, go to the bottom of the great abyss of Lohmadi, capture a flying dragon of the abyss alive and bring it back. 】

  【Reward: A phoenix egg. 】

  …

  【Back in time, you sounded the elven horn. 】

  【Fairy Fairy Aurea Blesser appeared in front of you and issued a mission to you. 】

[World Tree Leaves: Within five days, take her handwritten letter and rush to the Emerald City in the center of the Elven Forest to find the guardian of the World Tree, Priest Riley, and ask for ten World Tree leaves to suppress the leylines of the undead erosion. 】

  【Reward: Choose one of the following two blessings to obtain. 1. Permanently obtain 7 free attributes. 2. Permanently reduce the cooling time of all magic and props by 10% (not valid for the Fool's Relic). 】

  …

  After trying more than a dozen times in a row, Mu You discovered that there are actually only four elves in total, appearing constantly in rotation, and representing four different types of elves: forest elves, daylight elves, dark elves, and fairy fairies.

  Each elf issues different tasks and gives different rewards.

   Among them, the most expensive reward is of course the Sunlight Elf, who will directly send a phoenix egg!

  Of course, the difficulty of the task is also extremely high. Entering the great abyss of Lohmadi, you have to capture a flying dragon alive...

  Not to mention catching the flying dragon alive, just entering the abyss for a circle and then coming out alive is already a century-old problem for him.

  This task can only be looked at greedily.

   Mu You shook his head, hesitated for a while among the four tasks, and finally chose the task of the Fairy Fairy.

  One is because the rewards are good, whether it is attribute points or cooling time reduction, they are very useful blessings for him.

  Secondly, because the task is simple, you only need to rush to the border of the forest elves with a letter.

   Moreover, the word 'world tree' was mentioned in this task.

  I'm not sure about other trees, but the world tree should be considered a **** tree, right?

At the same time, the person I'm looking for in this quest happens to be the quest releaser of the forest elves above, the High Priest named Riley, and Mu You knows what this person needs, a bottle of epic life potion, if he advances After refining it, if you see someone take out a potion and bribe it, there is still a chance to ask for some benefits.

  He doesn't want to be able to cut down other people's precious trees directly, but as long as he can get a seed or something, he can take it back and catalyze it by himself. It is not difficult to get some wood...

  The only question now is, how to get to this Emerald City?

  But there is no need to ask others about this, Xiaoya is now one of the priests of the Elven Forest, she should know this.

  Mu You called Xiaoya directly and asked about the Emerald City.

   "Emerald City? That is the base camp of the forest elves. It is located in the center of the entire elf forest, far away from the area under my jurisdiction...but you can take the elves' teleportation array there."

   "How do you charge for your teleportation array?" Mu You asked.

   "For outsiders to pass, there will be a charge for 20 years... But as a forest priest, I have three opportunities to ride the elf teleportation array for free every month. You can hide in my backpack and I will take you there. You should not be found."

"That's great…"

  Mu You was overjoyed when he heard it. After listening to the first half of the sentence, he started to feel pain in his body. It takes 20 years for one time, and 40 years for a round trip. Fortunately, as an insider, Xiaoya still has the opportunity to ride for free every month.

   This saved forty years, and Mu You couldn't help feeling that there were indeed people in the DPRK who were good at handling things.

  Originally, the biggest difficulty of this task was how to get to the Emerald City, but now this problem was directly solved by Xiaoya, and it became a costless task for him.

  Next, Mu You didn't hesitate any longer, and blew the horn a few more times, spawned the Fairy Fairy, and immediately accepted her task.

  【You have accepted the task of 'Collection of World Tree Leaves'. 】

  【You have obtained the ‘Letter from the Fairy Fairy Aurea’. With this letter, you can gain the permission to meet the forest high priest Riley, and it will expire after five days. 】

  【You collected a bottle of 'Lucky Dust' at the place where the fairies left. 】

  Confirmed the task, Mu You cast the fishing net back underwater, arranged the bait, and then took the teleportation array back to the hut in Anning Village.

  The Elven Forest is a vast forest located in the north of the Laner Empire. It takes about a day's journey to ride a donkey all the way north through the village, not too far.

  After returning to the village, Mu You didn't leave in a hurry, but took advantage of the effect of the hidden breath of thousands of people and faces, and went to the owl shop at the entrance of the village to have a look.

  【Welcome, distinguished guest! 】

  【Seeing a strange customer coming, the owner of the owl shop warmly greeted you and showed you the products for sale today. 】

  【Basic Fire Element Experience Book Page: After studying it, one LV2 fire magic can be upgraded to LV3, and the spell power and casting speed can be increased by 25%. Price: 10 years lifespan. 】

  【Teleportation imprint: Bind to a location. When resurrected after death, you can choose to teleport back to the predetermined location, and you cannot teleport across planes (after the new imprint is overwritten, the original imprint location will become invalid). Price: 50-year lifespan. 】

【Sold out. 】

  To Mu You's surprise, there was no spell scroll in the store today, but a 'experience book page'.

   Muyou saw this thing on the forum, it is specially used to improve the magic level.

From LV1 to LV2 of the spell, you can upgrade by brushing the number of releases, and after LV2, you must use this kind of experience book page of the corresponding department. There are three types: junior high school and high school. Intermediate experience is required, and advanced experience is required for LV4 to 5.

   And depending on the level of magic, the number of experience pages required to upgrade is also different. For example, only one is needed for elementary magic to upgrade, five for intermediate magic, and ten for high-level magic!

  As for LV5 and above, any external objects are useless, and you can only improve by your own personal experience in continuous use.

  Although it is a pity that the product is not a spell scroll, it is still a free thing. Muyou decided to use it after buying it.

  【Your 'flaming fire ring' has gained a bonus of fire experience, and the upgrade progress is LV2 (1/5). 】

  The circle of flames is an intermediate magic, which requires five pages to improve.

   But this is not a problem, if one time is not enough, go back a few more times.

  【Your 'Fire Ring' has obtained enough fire experience bonuses to upgrade to LV3. 】

  It's a pity that Muyou only has this kind of fire-type white magic now, and there is no level of black magic, so the white prostitution can only end here.

   Then Mu You looked at the second product below and sent the imprint.

   This is also a very good thing. After death, you can be resurrected, and you can choose to teleport back to the predetermined location to avoid being chased and killed in the same location.

  The price is 50 years, which is a little expensive, but it is still necessary to have one of this thing. Since it happened, Mu You bought it as an insurance.

  【You bought the 'Teleportation Imprint', the lifespan is -50 years, and the remaining lifespan is 427 years. 】

   After purchasing, Mu You immediately found a circular formation rune on the back of his right hand, but it was still in a faint state, indicating that it had not been activated yet.

   Mu You thought for a while, returned to the cabin, and decided to place the mark inside the house. With the door, he will often travel in other worlds in the future, and the real danger will happen in the opposite star spirit world.

  The wooden house is his real estate in another world, and it seems to be the safest place so far.

  As for reality... firstly, only Phoenix Feather can give him a chance to be resurrected, and secondly, it is basically impossible for him to encounter life crisis in reality.

  If it came to the reality that he had to be resurrected to save his life, and someone was planning to plot him so hard, then there is no place on earth that is absolutely safe. Wherever this mark is placed, people may be ambushed.

  【You arranged the teleportation imprint in the watchman's cabin. When you resurrect outside in the future, you can choose to teleport back here at any time. 】

  【You left the village and came to the wild forest...】

  【You met an 'unknown person' on the roadside in the forest. 】

  【The unknown person took out a 'flying broomstick' and invited you to ride the broomstick together. 】

   Not long after leaving the village, Mu You met a player in the forest and invited him as soon as he came up.

   Mu You was not surprised by this, because this player was actually Lin Xue.

  Lin Xue's birth location in the game is in another small town not far from Anning Village, and she has been leveling in the nearby forest recently.

  After calling Xiaoya just now, Mu You also contacted Lin Xue and explained the situation to her.

   After Lin Xue finished listening, she immediately decided to go to the Elf Forest with him.

  No matter how large the sphere of influence of the Wizarding Association is, it is impossible to cover the entire star spirit world. After all, there are still some places that they cannot touch, such as the sea, such as the forest of elves.

  Instead of being chased outside and running around, it's better to go to Xiaoya's elf territory to practice leveling with peace of mind.

  As for the broom in Xue Lin's hand, it was a relic she got when she entered the game.

  【Flying broomstick (common relic): A broomstick that can carry you flying in the sky without the need for a flying spell, but it is slower and can carry up to two people. 】

   It’s just an ordinary relic, but it is more practical among ordinary relics. It provides newcomers with convenient flying ability in the early stage. Whether it is used for traveling or avoiding pursuit, it is very useful.

  The road to the Elven Forest is still relatively long, and it takes a long time to ride a donkey, so Mu You asked Xiaoxue to wait for him nearby, just in time to rub her broom.

  【You agreed to the invitation of the unknown person, took the other party's flying broom, and set off for the forest of elves. 】

  【In progress, expected to arrive in 10 hours...】

  10 hours, in fact, the speed is not very fast, but at least flying in the air, you will not be stopped by those mobs on the ground at any time, you can hang up with peace of mind.

  Games were hanging in the background, while Mu You took the time to run into the space and took a look at the situation of the mermaid.

   As soon as I entered the space, I found that the fish tank was empty at this time, and there was a puddle of water stains on the side of the tank, extending to the lake under the waterfall.
