Chapter 498
Tail? So the sealed thing below is really some kind of creature?
However, if the bitter mother tree on the surface is just the tail end of this tail, and the fairies are born from the mother tree, doesn’t that mean that all fairies are separated from this organism?
Moreover, a tail can extend from the surface to such a deep underground. How long is this tail? How huge is the body of this creature?
Mu You didn’t have time to think about it. It took more than a day to analyze the order here. Now there is not much time left here, and he must act as soon as possible.
[You found a fusionable paraphyseal circuit prosthesis. Do you want to fuse it immediately? ]
When Mu You clicked on the text of ‘Wind Kylin Arm’, this paragraph of text popped up.
“Parathic prosthesis?” Mu You was stunned for a moment, and soon realized that this Kylin arm had obviously been processed and turned into something similar to a prop that can be equipped and disassembled at any time.
"Fusion!"
[Fusion of prosthetic limbs, expected to be completed in five hours...]
"So long..."
Mu You frowned. He thought this thing was just a glove, which could be used directly after being put on. He didn't expect that it would take four or five hours to wear it.
There was no choice but to wait patiently.
The three clones found that Mu You's spying was over, so they set out on the journey again. However, this time the action was much simpler. There was no need to explore the way carefully. They just needed to follow this tail all the way down to find the main body of this thing.
While waiting, Mu You paid attention to the situation of the clones. As a result, the length of this tail was much longer than they expected.
Until five hours later, the fusion on Mu You's side was over, and the four people had not found the end!
[Fusion of the parasitic circuit prosthesis was successful, and you obtained the 'wind unicorn arm'...]
The prompt of the completion of the fusion has popped up, and Mu You had to temporarily retract his gaze and check the effect of the prosthesis first.
[Parasitic circuit prosthesis: a parasitic prop transformed from the broken arm of the wind unicorn, with a part of the power of the wind unicorn.
Abilities:
Summoning Kirin Arm: The fused Kirin Arm is usually in a dormant state. When used, the circuit can be activated to summon the main body of the Kirin Arm and control the size of the Kirin Arm.
Infinite Power: As long as the wearer steps on the ground, the Kirin Arm can burst out with endless power.
Scale Armor: The Kirin's entire body is covered with strange scales, which can isolate all curses, seals and weakening effects.
Wind Vacuum: The Wind Kirin can automatically absorb the wind element in the surrounding space, making nearby wind magic and divine arts ineffective.
Wind Burial Cannon: The Kirin's broken arm full of wind elements can fire a wind burial cannon with amazing destructive power, tearing objects in a straight line in front into dust. Firing the wind burial cannon will instantly drain the energy in the user's body. The more energy absorbed, the more powerful the wind burial cannon. After each firing, a three-day cooling period is required to accumulate wind elements again before it can be used again. 】
"So many?" Mu You was surprised.
He thought that this arm had been cut off from the divine beast and transformed into equipment, and the effect must be very limited. As a result, so many entries popped up at once, and each ability seemed to be very amazing!
Let’s not talk about the first one. The ordinary summoning is similar to the divine skin, which is equivalent to a switch.
Mu You looked at his right arm in reality.
Since the prompt that the fusion was completed just now, he felt itchy in his right arm. At this time, his right arm did not change at all, but it was covered with a maze of energy circuits, as if a circuit diagram was carved into the skin.
This should be the "circuit prosthesis" mentioned in the instructions. The arm of the Qilin usually exists on the user's body surface in the form of an energy circuit. When it is needed, you only need to input energy into these circuits to activate the Qilin arm.
Mu You immediately entered the backpack space and found an open place to try it.
As energy was input into the circuit, a layer of translucent substance suddenly emerged from the circuit, quickly wrapped his entire arm, and condensed into the shape of a beast arm.
The surface of this beast's arm is covered with green scales. It is only a circle thicker than Mu You's arm. The size is not exaggerated. There is a beast claw at the front of the arm. The five sharp claws flash with cold light, which can be tightened or opened synchronously with Mu You's fist.
As Mu You began to increase the energy input, this arm also began to expand rapidly, and the longest can be extended to dozens of meters, which is consistent with the size of the Qilin arm described at the beginning of the game.
This summoning mode is similar to the divine skin. It can be large or small. The larger the appearance, the faster the energy consumption.
After thinking about it, Mu You walked to the only hill in the space, controlled the Qilin arm, pressed it on the mountain, and tried to exert force.
"Boom..."
Accompanied by a loud bang on the ground, countless rocks and soil collapsed on the mountain. At the same time, the mountain actually moved a section in the direction he pushed.
Mu You looked at the phantom of the beast claw on his right arm in surprise. He guessed that it might be possible to push the hill, but what he didn't expect was that he didn't feel anything?
There was no such thing as a reaction force. He just felt that he pushed a ball of air forward, and then the mountain moved.
Obviously, the laws of physics do not apply to this kind of divine beast.
Mu You retraced the time according to the table, restored everything, and looked back at the instructions in the game.
This should be the second ability in the prompt: as long as you step on the ground, the Qilin Arm can burst out with almost infinite power.
The "Scale Armor Covering" and "Wind Vacuum" below are both passive abilities. One can protect the Qilin Arm from any curse-like state, and the other can absorb the wind elements in the surrounding environment into a vacuum, thereby indirectly shielding wind magic and divine arts.
This should be the reason why wind magic cannot be used in the dark cave. This thing is definitely the nemesis of all wind mages, let alone other things!
The last ability is also the ability that Mu You is most interested in, the Wind Burial Cannon, a super-powerful offensive means.
Even the game text uses the description of "amazing destructive power". It is clear that the power must be quite extraordinary.
Unfortunately, there are many restrictions. It can only be fired once every three days, and all energy must be exhausted at once.
Mu You clicked to read the detailed description and found that the "energy" here is not necessarily the divine energy to launch divine arts, but also magic power.
In other words, this wind burial cannon actually has two modes. Using magic power to fire is magic, and using energy to fire is divine art. The appropriate usage can be determined according to the occasion. Mu You is not sure how powerful this thing is for the time being, but he thinks it should at least reach the level of forbidden spells, right?
Mu You was just about to find a place to experiment with the newly acquired "big move" when the lamp god in the oil lamp on his waist seemed to have noticed something and turned into smoke and floated out of the pot mouth.
"The energy outside is a bit manic, what are you doing?"
The lamp god yawned and asked, but as soon as he asked, he saw the beast claw on Mu You's right arm. He was stunned at first, and then his eyes widened: "Qilin arm?!"
"Where did you get it from?" The lamp god looked at Mu You in surprise.
Mu You had to explain to him as briefly as possible what he encountered in the game just now, and he happened to have a lot of questions that needed the lamp god to answer.
"The sealed gun... Under the bitter garden, there is actually such a thing buried..." The lamp god looked a little ugly after hearing it.
"What is the Sealing Spear?" Mu You took the opportunity to ask.
"The Sealing Spear is the artifact of the God of Sealing. Later, it was tempered by the God of Fire and upgraded to a super artifact, claiming to have the ability to suppress any creature in the world!"
"This thing is so powerful that even his master, the God of Sealing, will have all his power sealed when he touches it, and he can't muster any strength." The lamp god sighed.
"That's why this thing must be used in conjunction with the Kirin Arm. The 'scale armor covering' of the Kirin Arm is the only thing known to be immune to the effect of the Sealing Spear."
The lamp god's face became solemn as he spoke.
If there was only the Kirin Arm, it would be fine, but there was actually a Sealing Spear... He had already sensed that something was wrong, because the creature that needed to be suppressed by the Sealing Spear would definitely not be an ordinary creature.
"Go and confirm what is sealed under the city?" The lamp god looked at Mu You and urged.
"Okay."
Mu You nodded, and had to give up the idea of testing the wind burial cannon, and returned to the game to continue controlling the character.
[You took away the Qilin arm, and the order automatically closed. ]
[You continued to move forward along the way you came. ]
[You suddenly smelled a pungent and familiar smell, and you immediately recognized that it was the smell of Houttuynia cordata powder. ]
"Oh?"
Mu You was stunned for a moment, and soon realized that Houttuynia cordata, as one of the most common materials for refining medicine, had a strong smell. In addition, there was no wind in the dark cave, and even if it was casually sprinkled on the ground, the smell could remain for a long time.
This was obviously Houttuynia cordata powder scattered by the herbalist to show him the way. As long as he followed the smell of Houttuynia cordata, he should be safe all the way.
"Smart." Mu You nodded with satisfaction. In this environment where vision is invalid, making full use of the sense of smell is undoubtedly the best solution.
It is much easier to have the smell to guide the way. Next, Mu You directly let the character ride on the broom and start flying close to the wall.
The reason why he couldn't use the flying spell before was because of the existence of the Kirin Arm. Now that the Kirin Arm has been taken away by him, as long as it is not activated, it will no longer affect the nearby wind elements.
In order to catch up with the clones as soon as possible, Mu You directly turned on the high-speed mode of the broom and flew at full speed. Since the four people had explored this road before, most places were unobstructed. Mu You flew smoothly all the way, and there was still a chance to go back if he really encountered obstacles.
While rushing on the road, Mu You cut off the night watchman's perspective and found that the four seemed to have found the end of the source.
[The terrain ahead suddenly flattened, and you continued to track along the direction of the spread of the tree roots, but found that the tree roots suddenly coiled up in front and disappeared into the darkness. ]
[The light of the pumpkin lamp in your hand flickered and went out quietly. ]
[You hurriedly sprinkled a handful of lucky dust into it, but it didn't help. ]
["People light candles, ghosts blow out the lights?" In the darkness, the faint voice of the herbalist suddenly sounded. 】
【"Don't make such a scary joke, okay? We're not here to rob a tomb..." You said guiltily. 】
【"Look over there!" Linglong suddenly said. 】
【"Which side is that?" you asked. 】
【"You'll know if you turn around!" Linglong said impatiently. 】
【You tried to turn around, and when you turned to one direction, you suddenly saw a faint light flickering in the darkness ahead, like a lighthouse in the vast ocean, which had a fatal attraction to you. 】
【"Go and have a look!" said the herbalist. The footsteps of several people gradually faded away. 】
【You had no choice but to follow them and walk forward in the dark. 】
【Fortunately, the road was flat, and after a few minutes, you successfully arrived in front of the light. 】
【What appeared in front of you was a lonely platform, with an inverted hemispherical barrier in the center of the platform, filled with liquid energy visible to the naked eye. It was this barrier that was emitting light to the surroundings, so that this place was not completely dark. 】
【And inside the barrier, a male goblin was sitting on the ground, meditating with his eyes closed with a smile on his face, and he was unaware of your arrival. 】
【"It's the Goblin King!" Gargamel pointed at the goblin and shouted in surprise: "I've seen its portrait at Master Olmedo..." 】
【When Gargamel said "Olmedo", the goblin in the barrier changed his face and suddenly opened his eyes. ]
[Seeing the four people outside the barrier, the male fairy frowned: "How can a human come here? Wait..."]
[The fairy suddenly realized something, and looked at you, Linglong, and the herb collector in shock and fear: "You...are you the Fool?"]
["What's wrong with the Fool?" You blurted out.]
[Just after you finished speaking, you heard a panting sound from above. The four of you looked up at the same time, and saw a pair of beast eyes suddenly opened in the dark dozens of meters above your heads.]
[The moment you looked into these eyes, you only felt your consciousness violently shaken, and an indescribable fear filled your heart. Your body trembled constantly, and you took several steps back, and finally sat down on the ground.]
[The other three people had similar reactions. Linglong and Gargamel both screamed and fell to the ground in fear. Only the herb collector insisted on standing where he was, but you could still see his legs shaking violently, but the pride in his bones did not allow him to bow his head in front of others. 】
【"Fool, don't look at the tool!" The Goblin King cursed inwardly, and hurriedly closed his eyes, holding his breath and concentrating, adjusting his emotions. 】
【After a while, as the Goblin King's face returned to calm, the eyes above slowly closed, and the fear in your hearts gradually subsided. 】
【After a while, the Goblin King, who had regained his calm, opened his eyes again, looked at you, and said expressionlessly: "Why did you come here?" 】
【"Yes, Master Olmedo asked us to come. The master asked us to take you back..." Gargamel wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his face still a little pale. 】
【"Olmedo, is she still waiting for me..." A touch of nostalgia appeared on the Goblin King's face, but he quickly regained his calm: "You can see that I can't leave. I need to stay here and suppress this thing." 】
【"You seemed to have said 'tool' just now. Is that the name of this thing? What kind of creature is this?" You took the opportunity to ask. 】
【"To be precise, it's called 'Gu Snake'. I don't know what it is specifically. I only know that it has been sleeping in the ground of the Bitter Garden since the beginning. It was because of the birth of you, the Fool, that the Gu, which should have been sleeping all the time, woke up and caused the goblins to stop producing." The Goblin King said calmly: "If I hadn't come here in time to suppress it, it would have drilled out from the ground eight hundred years ago. By then, not only our goblins, you, the Fool, but also the entire Star Spirit World, would have been buried with it..."】
【"You can suppress something that can destroy the world? Uncle, how did you do it? Can you teach us? Is it with this barrier? What's in it? Nutrient solution? You've been soaking in it for eight hundred years, don't you need to do that..." You looked at the Goblin King in surprise, turned into a curious baby, and asked more than a dozen questions in a row. 】
【The Goblin King looked at you in silence, and the expression he tried to maintain gradually began to collapse. 】
【You heard that the giant beast above seemed to be panting again. 】
【"My current emotions are directly connected to the tool, so you'd better not provoke me, otherwise... believe me, you can't bear it." The Fairy King tried his best to stay calm and warned. 】
