Chapter 618: Unexpected Encounter and Suppression of Vision
Mu You was stunned after hearing this: "You want to go to Gaotian? Then you have to create a game character first..."
Katrina and he cleared the server of the Blood Clan together, so theoretically she is also a Fool now, and should be able to create a game character.
But Catalina shook her head: "No, Lord Allah said that the Sea of Blood is an ocean formed by the blood of countless believers squeezed by Cain. It exists in an illusory world, which is full of endless resentment and evil spirits. The mind clone, which is what you call the "game character", cannot be formed in the Sea of Blood. It will be crushed in an instant. I must take Lord Allah there in person."
"This..."
Mu You frowned and looked at her: "You should know the God Devourer, right? Aren't you afraid of being infected when you go to Gaotian?"
The reason why the Fool's ancestors went through so much trouble to create the "Fool" game is to restrain the parasitism of the God Devourer.
Catalina still shook her head: "God said that I will not be parasitized."
Mu You was stunned: "Why?"
"God didn't say, but I believe in God's judgment." Catalina said firmly.
"..." Mu You looked strange.
Looking at her determined eyes, Mu You didn't know how to persuade her. It is difficult for people to convince a true fanatic believer.
Mu You had to turn to Lilith in the cage: "Is what she said true?"
The girl in the cage blinked, indicating that it was true.
"Okay."
Lilith herself said that there was no problem, and Mu You had nothing to say. He estimated that the Blood God should have some secret method to prevent being parasitized. After all, the Blood God's authority is very strange. It is the only god system that does not need to rely on divinity to advance. Anyway, Lilith can't cheat her own believers.
"But, take this necklace." Mu You took out the wild man's tooth and bone necklace from the game and gave it to Catalina.
"What is this?" Catalina took the somewhat rough handmade product and looked at the dry fang on it, a little confused.
"This is a wild man's tooth, maybe it can have some effect on the parasitism of the God Devourer." Mu You said.
In Abby's suicide note, he said that he had encountered a giant in the wild, but he was not parasitized. The only difference between Abby and other fools at that time was that he always carried this necklace given by the wild man with him. There is a certain possibility that the wild man's teeth on this necklace prevented the parasitism of the God Devourer for some reason.
Of course, it is just pure speculation. Mu You cannot verify it now. He can only give it to her first. It is better to have it than not.
As for the wild man, after taking the memory potion, he no longer needs this necklace to identify Mu You.
"How are you going to go to Gaotian? Do you need me to help you contact Sky City?" Mu You asked.
Now, the only way to go to Gaotian, except for the server, is to take a ride in Sky City.
In addition to Dawn City and Daybreak City, there are six sky cities that are about to fly into the sky. Basically, they are not fully occupied, and there are plenty of places.
"No." Catalina shook her head: "God said that he would take me to the exit of Enoch City, and it would be closer to the Sea of Blood from there."
Enoch City is the exclusive server of the Blood God. After Cain escaped into the server, in order to prevent being hunted by the gods, the exit was completely sealed.
However, Lilith, as the owner of the server, has the ability to reopen the exit, which is not surprising to Mu You.
"Take this stone with you, and contact me at any time if you have anything." Mu You gave one of the twin stones to Catalina.
The high sky world is vast and vast. Players can still contact each other through the Internet when they are on Earth, but she went there alone. If something happened, no one would know. The twin stones are the only remote communication method.
Mu You and Catalina explained the role of the twin stones.
Half an hour later, Catalina carried the birdcage carrying Lilith and left the pet shop with the eyes of several people.
This time she came back by borrowing another player's door, and she had to rush back today.
"It's time for us to set off..."
After watching Katarina leave, Mu You returned to the game.
Now that he had the arm's guidance, the priority of resurrecting the Blood God was greatly increased. It was self-evident that he could resurrect a true god as soon as possible.
Katarina said that Lilith's other arm was in the Sea of Blood, and she would bring it back. In this way, the two arms and the head were already complete, and the torso and legs were left.
Back in the game, Mu You led the savage and the bone dragon and set off in the direction pointed by the arm, starting the long journey of "looking for corpses".
...
Two months later.
[…You activated ‘Existence’, quietly bypassed from behind, and approached a blue bison that was grazing on water grass by the stream…]
[Thunder Blue Bull (7 stars)…]
[When you approached within a hundred meters, the bison discovered you, roared, and lightning flashed all over its body. It stomped its four hooves on the ground and charged towards you. At the same time, a mouthful of shining plasma spurted out of its mouth, cutting through the air and blasting towards you…]
[The halo of ‘Song of Peace’ was shattered, and the flying plasma cannon disappeared like bubbles. A layer of order locks wrapped around the blue bull.]
[The blue bull roared to the sky, and the electric light surged wildly all over its body. In the arc shooting, it actually broke free from the restraint of the order lock and continued to rush towards you…]
[You activated ‘Silent Field’, and the electric light on the blue bull was instantly extinguished, and the momentum of the charge dropped sharply…]
[You activated ‘Magic Hands’ and locked the special material on the blue bull in advance: Thunder Horn.]
[The bone dragon emerged from the ground and wrapped around the hind legs of the blue bull. At the same time, a monkey-like cry sounded from the sky. The wild man Muro swung his vines and descended from the sky. He stepped on the blue bull's head and stabbed the spear in his hand deeply into the bull's back...]
...
[After a fierce battle, the blue bull fell to the ground with a cry and died. With the help of the wild man and the bone dragon, you easily killed the Thunder Blue Bull. ]
[You gained enough experience points, and your level was raised to level 26, all attributes +1, free attribute points +5...]
This Thunder Blue Bull has a strong body and a variety of thunder magic. At the same time, it is thick-skinned and extremely resistant to attack. Although it is only 7 stars, its strength is stronger than many 8-star creatures.
Unfortunately, no matter how powerful the wild monster is, facing the siege of the three of them, there is no room for struggle.
As early as half a month ago, Mu You had completed the conversion of 4-star faith and returned to the city to upgrade as soon as possible. Now he is a serious 5-star believer. With the addition of the divine skin, his combat power is equivalent to that of a 7-star creature.
The star level of the bone dragon has not fallen behind. In the past two months, he has been following Mu You to kill monsters and devour divinity. Now his strength has recovered to 6 stars.
Not to mention, there is also a 9-star wild man who serves as the main combat force.
Although the wild man does not know divine arts, his physical strength is no less than that of any creature. In an environment without divinity, the wild man is almost invincible.
And Mu You's silent field can just block the surrounding divine arts. He and the wild man cooperate in combat and are almost invincible.
In the past two months, the combination of the three can be said to be invincible. They have killed all the way and have never encountered a monster that can really stump them.
"The level has also been upgraded..."
Mu You saw the last prompt and cut out the panel to take a look.
Although killing monsters in the High Sky World no longer displays experience, in fact, every kill will earn experience, and 1 point of real life corresponds to 1 point of experience.
Any high-star monster in the High Sky World can easily have more than 10,000 real life. After two months of hard work, Mu You successfully piled up experience points above the upper limit of level 25 and reached level 26.
[“Eat…beef legs…” The savage Muro excitedly raised his spear, rushed to the body of the blue ox, pressed the body of the ox with one hand, held the ox legs with the other, and used his arms to forcefully tear off the two hind legs of the ox, and then he was going to make a fire and roast them...]
[You condensed the remaining body of the blue ox, and you got 801 divine crystals, 1 thunder horn, 2 thunder hides...]
The savage was not interested in divine crystals at all. For him, killing monsters was equivalent to hunting, and the only trophies in his eyes were meat.
So the distribution of the spoils after the three fought was very harmonious: the savages were satisfied with cutting off the meatiest part of the prey as food, and the bone dragon was only interested in the divinity, so Mu You and the bone dragon split the divinity equally, and Mu You took the rest of the materials with a smile.
Mu You now has more than 200,000 divinity deposits. He doesn't care much about the dozens or hundreds of divinity he gets every time he kills a monster. What he cares about is the materials.
After getting the materials, Mu You immediately threw the horns he just got into the synthesis furnace.
[You put 1 Moon Velvet Knife and 5 Thunder Horns into the synthesis furnace. ]
[Material compatibility 48%, there is a certain probability of failure, do you confirm the synthesis? ]
"Confirm!"
[...Synthesis successful! Your Moon Velvet has received a significant upgrade! 】
【Moon Velvet (7.5 stars): God's Power +17, God's Defense +3, Strength +30, Agility +30, Intelligence +30...
Whenever the Moon Velvet Knife attacks, it can choose to consume 1 energy to release the "Moonlight Flash", emitting a blinding light to interfere with the opponent's vision. The darker the surrounding environment, the stronger the blinding effect. 】
"Finally it's done!"
A few minutes later, Mu You looked at the synthesis result and breathed a sigh of relief.
Thunder Horn is one of the two 7-star materials he chose, but this material has a very low affinity with the Moon Velvet Knife, less than 50%, resulting in a sharp increase in the failure rate of synthesis.
This is the 96th Thunder Blue Bull that Mu You has killed in the past two months. Even with the guaranteed drop provided by the "Master Hand" of the Thief God's authority, he can stably explode a bull horn every time, but he can't withstand such a low probability consumption. He failed dozens of times in a row, and finally succeeded in upgrading the star today.
As for the synthesis effect, it was not unexpected.
The Thunder Blue Ox has a signature ability, 'Blinding Flash', which will suddenly burst out with thunder light to blind the opponent's eyes during the battle, making it impossible to defend against it.
That is, Mu You suppressed the signature ability of the Blue Ox from the beginning under the authority of silence, which is why he could easily attack this creature.
Now this ability has been successfully inherited by the Moon Velvet Knife. In addition to blinding, this ability has another very useful use, which is to cooperate with the 'Open your eyes at dawn' rule.
Generally, when creatures are flashed in the eyes by strong light, they will subconsciously close their eyes to protect themselves, and this is exactly the rule of 'Open your eyes at dawn': every time the opponent closes his eyes, he will lose his vision permanently. If the opponent flashes a few more times in the battle, even if he is not blinded by the strong light, he will be blinded by the rules.
Mu You was watching the newly-released Moon Velvet Knife with satisfaction, and a red prompt suddenly popped up in the game.
[Warning: In the field of vision of the Golden Crow Eye, you vaguely see a figure that looks like a giant passing by you a thousand meters away! Do you want to go and check the situation? 】
"Hmm?"
Mu You was startled. A giant appeared?
"It's not good to find a giant in this position..." Mu You frowned.
During these two months, the other six sky cities have also flown into the sky one after another. In order to determine the location of the Blood God's body, Mu You once took the Blood God's arm and visited all the landing points of the sky cities. Finally, it was determined that when in Sunset City, the Blood God's sense of her body was the strongest.
Therefore, Mu You finally chose to start from Sunset City. The current location is only thousands of kilometers away from Sunset City.
This distance is not too close, but it is definitely not far. At least it is definitely within the daily limit of the savages. It is not impossible for a giant who is unlucky and accidentally encounters Sunset City while on patrol.
"Yes."
[You chased in the direction where the giant disappeared, and expanded your super-sensory vision to the maximum. ]
[Soon, you saw the huge human figure hidden in the fog again. 】
【It was a giant wearing light armor and a cape on his shoulders. The light-colored cape and hood on his body were looming in the mist, looking like an illusion. If you didn't have the illusion-breaking ability provided by the Golden Crow Eye, you might not be able to detect the existence of this giant...】
【At this time, the giant was walking and stopping in the mist, staring at a certain direction in front, groping on the ground from time to time, and then recording something on the scroll in his hand. His sneaky look was very suspicious...】
"..."
Mu You frowned. It was indeed a giant, and it seemed that he was a giant with the ability to hide. Judging from his actions, he looked like a scout, investigating something.
Fortunately, he had obtained the Golden Crow Eye before, and now his field of vision is comparable to that of a god-level creature.
And this giant was obviously not at the god-level, so he was completely suppressed by him in terms of vision. Mu You discovered the other party, but the other party could not detect his existence.
After thinking about it, Mu You controlled the character to get closer and tested the limit of the giant's field of vision.
[When you approached the giant about 800 meters away, the giant in front suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at you fiercely...]
"Only 800 meters..."
Mu You had an idea in his mind and silently pressed the clock.
With the Eye of the Golden Crow + Super Sense, his current limit of vision is twice that of the opponent, so it is easy and pleasant to track.
Mu You did not rush to show up. After confirming the opponent's vision, he directly controlled the character to go around in front of the giant, wanting to see what this person was investigating.
[You hid in the fog, bypassed the opponent's vision, and arrived first, and went around to the road in front of the giant, looking in the direction the giant was paying attention to...]
[You saw a fool, who was walking carefully in front, obviously did not notice the giant behind him, and the direction the fool was going was the location where a soul-guiding lamp was hidden...]
"..."
Mu You's eyelids jumped.
This giant scout is actually tracking the player?
So, has the God-Eating Beast really discovered that the fools have returned to the sky?
However, since the giants were still following and did not attack directly, it meant that they should not have determined the specific location of Sunset City.
At this time, they were secretly following in order to find out the location of Sunset City.
Mu You was somewhat fortunate that he happened to be nearby and discovered the giant by suppressing his vision. Otherwise, the player might not be able to detect the existence of the giant even if he was followed back to Sunset City.
Thinking of this, Mu You hurriedly wrote down the player's ID and sent a friend request to the other party on the forum.
"Ah??? Ghost Captain? Am I dazzled? Is it me?"
The player named 'Zi Feiyu' quickly accepted the friend request and started with a series of incredible exclamations.
"It's me..."
"Fuck, Master, I'm your super fan..." The other party seemed very excited.
Mu You didn't have time to chat with him and went straight to the point: "Fan brother, you are being followed by a giant!"
"What? Giant? Following me? Where?" The other party's answer proved that he really knew nothing.
"It's in the fog behind you, about 700 to 800 meters away from you. It has been following you all the way. It should be trying to follow you to Sunset City... Don't look back, continue on your way normally, so as not to alert the enemy." Mu You quickly typed.
"Fuck... That great god, what should I do? Should I commit suicide on the spot?" Zi Feiyu panicked.
"Don't panic, do as I say next."
