Chapter 184 Harvest and price

   At this time, the monsters at the bottom of the river had already been cleaned up, and Mu You didn't encounter any obstacles, and quickly swam ashore from the icy river.

   As expected, Mu You was greeted by a row of black muzzles as soon as he emerged from the water.

   Mu You didn't care about it. Such a big thing happened, and the enemy on the other side was secretly manipulating it all. It's strange that no one is guarding here.

  These soldiers are only performing their duties, not to mention that after being equipped with three suits of armor, ordinary firearms are now useless to him.

   "My own people, my own people!"

  Zhang Yang had been waiting by the river. When he saw Mu You who had come ashore, he hurried over and signaled the surrounding soldiers to put down their guns.

  Mu You walked up to the river bank, wiped his face with water, and showed his identity card at the right time. Then the soldiers saluted him, put away their guns and let him go.

   "Brother, are you not hurt?"

  Zhang Yang hastily pulled Mu You aside, first checked around, and after confirming that there were no wounds on his body, he was relieved.

   "No, it's a pity that I encountered a group of flying dragons shortly after entering, and got separated from the main force..."

Mu You briefly explained what happened in the swamp, but only before meeting the black-robed man Rhodes, and he naturally had to conceal what happened after that. I also found that the space in the swamp was disturbed and felt that it was dangerous, so I turned back in advance.

   "Haha, what's the matter? You're fine."

   Zhang Yang laughed and comforted, thinking that Mu You was blaming himself for not being able to help.

He didn't care about this at all. You must know that he waited by the river for several hours just now, and saw many players retreat one after another on the way, but the news they brought back was more terrifying: first, they were attacked by flying dragons, and the team suffered heavy casualties. Later, there was news that the space in the swamp was disturbed, and all teleportation imprints immediately became invalid!

   This kind of thing is obviously made by someone deliberately, and the purpose is naturally to target players who are going to the swamp.

  Muyou was the lowest level among all the people who entered the swamp at that time, and all the other high-level players came back one by one, but Muyou did not return for a long time, Zhang Yang felt so uneasy.

   It wasn't until seeing Mu You's safe return at this moment that the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

   "You are?"

   When he came back to his senses, Zhang Yang noticed that Mu You was still dragging a person by his hand.

  At first, Zhang Yang thought it was another player who was rescued on Muyou Road, but after a closer look, he found something wrong. This person's pants had been ripped off, and his whole body was **** with ropes. He looked more like a prisoner.

"This guy is a member of the Illuminati. After I got separated from the main force, this guy tried to ambush me, but I caught him instead..." Mu You said, holding the clothes on the back of this guy, and picked him up , shaking like a towel, shaking out the stagnant water in his mouth and nose.

   This person was dragged into the lake by him in his sleep just now, and poured a lot of river water. However, after such a toss, this guy still didn't wake up, but his expression became a little more painful, which shows how abnormal the effect of this sleeping potion is.

   "What did you say? People from the Illuminati attacked you?"

   Zhang Yang was taken aback when he heard that.

   "Yes, so I guess, there is Illuminati involvement behind this incident..."

   Mu You didn't say too much. When the other players come back to these things, more evidence will surface one after another. At that time, everything will be revealed naturally, so there is no need for him to say more.

   Zhang Yang was startled when he heard the words, and immediately frowned.

  As a branch director of the Dissonance Bureau, he certainly understands what this situation means.

  Zhang Yang nodded solemnly: "Okay, I understand, leave this person to me, you go to rest and eat something, and I will arrange a plane to take you back later."

"good."

  Mu You handed over the captive and the **** Gouyu to Zhang Yang, and asked him to return it to the Blood Emperor later.

   Then Mu You went back to the prepared rest room, changed his clothes, and took out the mobile phone from the lock cylinder backpack while eating the boxed lunch prepared by the army.

   Xiaoya and Lin Xue sent him a lot of messages on WeChat, all of which were asking about his situation. Mu You glanced at them for a while, then replied to them one by one, reported that he was safe, and then clicked on the "Fool" game.

  The game was launched, and I was still in the Qingsang tribe of the forest of elves, in the midst of the task of repeatedly brushing trolls.

  Xiaoya's game character stayed aside.

   On the day he left, the two girls had been taking turns patrolling. In addition to completing the task of spawning monsters, they also guarded the Tree of Life to prevent it from being poached by trolls in advance.

  Mu You manipulated the characters to walk to the tree of life. Today, the tree of life has grown to a height of 65 meters. It stands out from the crowd in the entire forest of elves.

  Mu You used crazy growth ten times as usual, completed today's 'birth', and then checked it out.

[The tree of life that is approaching maturity: the luxuriant branches and leaves of the tree of life provide abundant vitality for the surrounding plants. The current height is 88.5 meters, but the excessive catalytic growth also leads to the rapid exhaustion of the potential of this sapling. Its wood quality and final height will be much lower than normal ancient trees of life. 】

   Sure enough, it is close to maturity!

  According to this speed, one day later, that is, after tomorrow's 'fertilization', this tree of life should be fully mature, and the height will definitely exceed one hundred meters by then.

As for what caused the potential to be exhausted due to excessive growth, this Mu You can't help it. He didn't wait for this tree to grow into an ancient tree for hundreds of years. , as long as it is enough as the keel of the ship.

   In this way, he will be able to harvest the tree of life tomorrow morning and send it to the pirates so that they can start repairing the ship, but I don’t know if it can be repaired before the next time they enter the door.

  As soon as the word 'door' was mentioned, Mu You thought of the escaped Gemini again.

It is said that the door of my house opened half a day later than the door of Taurus. When he enters the door next time, the door of Taurus will open earlier than him, and Gemini must have taken people to hide in by then. It's very difficult to catch him again.

   But this is easy to solve. Mu You now has a cooldown reduction blessing among the rewards for this Elven Horn quest, which can reduce the cooldown time by one tenth.

  When this blessing is applied to the door, it will be opened once every ten days instead of once every nine days, which in turn will open half a day earlier than the door of Taurus!

   Mu You fetched a pen and paper, and did a little calculation of the time.

  His door was opened last Friday at ten o'clock in the evening. Based on the nine-day round, the next opening will be at ten o'clock in the evening of this Sunday.

  As for the door of Taurus, the earliest opening time is 10:35 am next Monday.

   That is to say, he will have more than twelve hours to solve Gemini.

enough!

   Mu You nodded, took out the elf horn in the game, clicked on the text, and selected 'delivery task' in the interaction.

  【Fairy Fairy Aurea Blesser appeared in front of you. You took out the ten leaves of the World Tree you collected. After the Fairy Fairy inspected it, she approved that your mission was completed. 】

  【Fairy Fairy is very satisfied with your speed, and decides to give you a blessing. 】

  【Please choose one of the following two blessings to obtain. 】

  【Permanently obtain 7 free attributes. 】

  【The cooling time of all your magic and non-relic items is permanently reduced by 10%. 】

   Two options, Mu You took the pocket watch, and tried to choose the next attribute first.

   After seeing that there were seven more free attributes on the panel, he immediately went back in time.

  It's a pity that as soon as time goes back, the attribute points are immediately eliminated.

   "Sure enough, blessings can't be done in vain..."

   Mu You shook his head helplessly, so he had to honestly choose the second option.

  【You have successfully obtained the blessing of the fairy, and the cooling time of all magic and non-relic items has been reduced. 】

  This blessing can only be applied to magic and common items, such as rejuvenation, immortality, lightning scepter, etc., and relics such as time pocket watch, elf horn, and thousands of faces are still fixed, and cannot be reduced by blessings.

  Mu You was checking the latest status of his various spells when there was a commotion outside, which quickly turned into cheers.

   The cheers were quickly contagious, spreading throughout the camp in the blink of an eye.

   Mu You's heart moved. It is estimated that the main force of the players has returned and brought back news of the success of the mission.

  Facts were just as he expected, this mission was a great success, not only broke the swamp altar, stopped the murloc offensive, but also severely damaged the power of the Ten Commandments.

Moreover, with the more than 20 players who have obtained the curse of the altar, the initiative of the door at the bottom of the river will be held in the hands of humans from now on. The monsters on the opposite side cannot invade, and the players on the earth can go to the swamp on the other side In a sense, the experience of farming monsters in the middle can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

  Of course, the price is not without it. Let’s not resist the casualties caused by the murloc invasion in advance. More importantly, after this fight, the master players have lost a lot of strength.

  Six master players were directly downgraded to below level 15, and the other masters also dropped some levels more or less, losing a lot of experience.

From this point of view, the goal of the Ten Commandments Society has actually been achieved this time. After all, the fundamental purpose of this incident is to consume the power of the players on the earth, but because of the intervention of Muyou and the Mystic Association, it failed. Just achieve the expected effect.
