MTL - This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic-Chapter 346 Reaper

  Chapter 346 Acting on behalf of the God of Death

   Outside the Skull Mountain.

  Three figures passed through the grass one after another, and quickly approached the foot of the mountain.

   "This product is really rich..."

   Mu You looked at the fleeing Z-world walker in front of him, his eyes twitching slightly.

Just now he and Shadow Wolf tried every means to torture this guy, but this guy is like a treasure chest connected to Doraemon, whenever they are about to subdue him, he can always throw some inexplicable things Things come, including but not limited to scrolls, potions, props, and occasionally call out a few summoned creatures.

  Although they are basically disposable props, they are not weak, and many of them have control effects. Mu You and Shadow Wolf occasionally have to stop to avoid the edge.

In addition, the two of them had to watch over them all the time, preventing each other from doing things that could easily kill them, such as flying directly to a height of 100 meters and being strangled by the airflow in the space, so they had to spare their energy to be on guard at all times, which led to chasing and beating Fighting, came here all the time, but didn't find a chance to subdue the opponent.

   And just when the three of them arrived a few hundred meters in front of the Skull Mountain, they saw the cloud and mist in front of them suddenly rolling, and there was a faint impact sound from the mist, and it was obvious that someone was approaching them.

  z Worldwalker's eyes lit up, as if he had finally arrived at a savior, he hurriedly threw a scroll backwards, and then quickly ran forward in the violent magnetic storm.

   "Hongxiu, it must be Hongxiu, it must be Hongxiu..."

  z Jiexing seemed to be praying in his mouth.

   All the way to the front of the fog layer, the figures in the fog just broke through the fog.

  The person who came was wearing a familiar scarlet robe. Although he didn't know why half of his face was **** with a rough cloth on his head, it was obviously the red sleeve!

  Z-level walker was overjoyed.

   Sure enough, Hongxiu was the one who got the inheritance, so at least he has a chance to fight back!

  However, before he could ask for help, he saw Hongxiu running towards him in a panic. As soon as he saw him, he immediately shouted: "Brother Nan, run!"

"Um?"

  z Jiexingzhe was stunned. He really didn't expect that the first sentence that Hongxiu came out was to tell him to run away... Could it be that she didn't get the death inheritance?

  Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a thick low growl from behind, and then the ground began to tremble, like some kind of prehistoric monster walking out of the fog.

Soon, a huge figure appeared from the fog: a skeleton giant with a height of nearly 20 meters, using blue energy as 'flesh and flesh', jointly built a giant body, holding a sickle, and went straight to the two come quickly.

  z Worldwalker immediately understood what was going on: Hongxiu really failed to get the inheritance, or in other words, she only got a small part, and he had already noticed the giant's missing left arm.

   "...Xiaoxue?"

  Mu You and Shadow Wolf also rushed to the vicinity at this time, looking at the giant figure in the distance in shock.

   At this time, the one wrapped in the center of the giant was obviously Lin Xue, but when Mu You saw Lin Xue's appearance clearly, he immediately noticed something strange.

   "What happened to her eyes?"

   "Hongxiu, quick, kill me!"

   On the other side, after confirming the current situation, Z Worldwalker hurriedly looked at Hongxiu and quickly made this request.

  Not even getting the inheritance of the **** of death, now there is no possibility for them to fight head-on. The only hope is to let him regain the time-stop ability, so that they have a chance to retreat unscathed.

"What?"

   Hong Xiu was still a little confused about the situation, and was stunned to hear such a request suddenly.

   "Kill me, don't you understand this?"

  z Jiexing Zhe really hates iron and steel at this time, and wants to explain clearly as quickly as possible, but there is no time.

  Accompanied by a strong coercion, the giant in front had already raised the sickle in his hand, and slashed towards their position.

   "Brother Nan, run!"

  Hongxiu subconsciously pushed Z World Walker away, then hurriedly raised his arm, the shadow of the giant arm quickly appeared on the arm, and collided with the giant hand attacking from above.

  Although the two giant arms were separated from the same body, the difference in size was huge after all. Under the impact of the two phases, it was like hitting a stone with an egg. The giant remained motionless like a mountain, while the red sleeve was thrown far away.

   When Mu You and Shadow Wolf saw the battle, they immediately wanted to help, but Vivian stopped them.

   "She is not stable now, you will only affect her in the past, let her do it herself."

   The two looked at each other, and had to stop again.

   On the other side, when Z World Walker got up from the ground, he suddenly felt a strong coercion, covering his body, and couldn't help shivering.

   Turning his head mechanically, he saw that the giant's gaze was completely locked on him at this moment, and he was walking towards him step by step.

"Oops…"

  z Jiexingzhe's heart rang out, he is not afraid of death now, no matter how strong ordinary things are, he is not afraid.

  However, the inheritance of the **** of death is not in the category of "ordinary", because this thing can directly harvest souls...

  Once the soul dies, he will have no chance to be resurrected, let alone regain the ability to stop time.

  z Jiexing hurriedly took out all the offensive props he could find on his body, threw his head back, and then didn't look at it, turned around and fled quickly, and couldn't care about anything else.

   A series of bombing sounds kept ringing behind him, but these props hit the skeleton giant, just like scratching an itch. It couldn't startle any waves, and couldn't stop it for even a second.

  z Worldwalker heard the footsteps behind him fading away, and immediately knew that the other party hadn't fully grasped the usage of Death God's inheritance, and the speed was much slower than expected. This is an opportunity!

  However, just when he was thinking about using the speed difference to escape, a dull bell suddenly rang.

  The bell sounded as if it came from the sky, and it seemed to explode directly beside his ears. With the sound, he was dizzy, his seven orifices were bleeding, and his feet seemed to be stuck in a quagmire. He was staggering, making it extremely difficult to move.

What's even more frightening is that at this moment, from the ground around him, arms and the figures below are continuously drilled out, like a ghost from hell, rushing towards him fiercely, pounced on his body and limbs , Clinging tightly, clinging tightly.

   "Get out of here!"

  z Jiexing used all four limbs and struggled desperately, but it was useless. Every time he kicked one, more ghost servants immediately rushed on him.

  z Jiexing Zhe was entangled in place until he couldn't move.

And behind him, the giant's footsteps were slowly approaching, and the z-world walker looked back in shock, the giant skeleton was indeed coming towards him, but at this time he was not holding a sickle, but an ancient bell. phantom.

  Others didn't know what the bell was ringing, but Mu You saw some clues through the Omniscient Crystal.

  【Suppressing Evil Death Knell: One of the props used by the legendary Reaper when hunting targets. When used on a target, it will have different suppression effects according to the target's 'evilness value'. The more evil people, the stronger the effect. A maximum of one ring per day is allowed. 】

A death knell, according to the description, it should be a prop of the same level as the death scythe, but this prop cannot be used for attack, it can only be used for suppression, and the scope of use is limited, special attack against evil, that is, it is specially used to deal with those who do evil things. .

   Just like the walker in the Z world in front of him, it is obvious that he usually does a lot of evil.

  At this moment, the ghost servants around him are all manifestations of the people he killed, which directly suppressed him to the point where he was completely unable to resist.

  At this time, Z Worldwalker could only watch in despair as the giant death **** walked up to him step by step, raised his sickle, and passed over his head.

  A ghostly blue soul was immediately taken out of his body, pulled by the tip of the knife, and sent into the mouth of the **** of death.

   The death giant is like eating rice cakes, elongating the soul, swallowing and chewing bit by bit.

   It wasn't until the soul of the walker in the Z world formed an extremely thin 'noodle' that no more could be pulled out, that the **** of death raised the sickle again, and slashed across the root of the soul, cutting off the soul completely.

At the moment the soul was broken, the ghost servants around Z World Walker immediately disappeared without a trace, and the empty shell body of the Z World Walker was blown away by the air flow caused by the giant's movement, flying away like a kite with a broken thread Go, in the middle of the air, there are various items falling down like rain, and it doesn't stop until Z World Walker completely falls to the ground.

  Because the body of the walker in the z world has lost his soul, his body began to decay at a speed visible to the naked eye as soon as he landed.

But at this moment, Hongxiu, who had just been smashed into the air, suddenly appeared in a teleport, and appeared next to the corpse of the Z-world walker, and panickedly used the giant hand on his right arm to wrap the Z-world walker's body in energy. Only then did the corpse stop decomposing, leaving at least one whole corpse.

   Mu You didn't have time to take care of her, but looked to the other side, where Lin Xue was, in a strange way.

  Just after the phantom of death swallowed the soul of the walker in the z world, he began to chew, but after chewing for a long time, he still couldn't swallow it.

   This situation is a bit weird. Before the **** of death devoured the soul, whether it was a snow monster or a person in white, they all digested it quickly. Is the soul of this z-world walker so difficult to chew?

  Just when Mu You was wondering, the phantom of the **** of death squirmed its neck, and finally swallowed its soul, but there was something left in its mouth, which was the culprit that made it unable to swallow.

  After trying to chew it for a few seconds, it seemed that the thing was too harsh, and the ghost of death finally gave up, spitting out a small thing like a peach pit.

  Mu You's eyes lit up. He didn't know what it was, but it was definitely not an ordinary thing that could make the Grim Reaper bite his teeth. He immediately threw out the chain claws and hooked the thing before it hit the ground.

   Start with something, it's cold.

Mu You picked it up and saw that it was a hollow cube the size of a thumb, but all the beams on the surface were already covered with cracks, and it seemed to be crumbling. Inside the cube, there was a smaller crystal fragment inlaid. .

   Mu You had never seen this thing before, and instinctively wanted to use the Omniscient Crystal to check it out.

   As a result, the Omniscient Crystal didn't report back any results!

   Mu You had no choice but to put it away first, and looked up to the front.

  On Lin Xue's side, after devouring the soul of the walker in the z world, the phantom of the **** of death continued to walk in the direction of Hongxiu, and its harvesting operation has not yet ended.

   When Hongxiu saw the fast approaching death giant, he didn't react. He still knelt down on the ground, protecting her husband's body with her arms.

   Hong Xiu didn't look up until the giant stopped in front of her.

   Staring at Lin Xue who was hiding in the giant's body, Hongxiu's eyes were full of resentment, but more numbness.

  After she was disfigured and her husband died in front of her, she was ashamed.

   So much so that when she faced the raised fist of the death giant, she didn't make any more struggles. Instead, she closed her eyes, as if she was ready to face death.

   The Grim Reaper is ruthless, and will not feel pity casually. The giant fist he swung continued to hit heavily.

However, just when the giant fist was about to fall, Mu You suddenly felt a strange fluctuation, the fist froze in mid-air, motionless, not only that, everything around, the vegetation on the ground, the dust in the air, The energy that was originally rippling like waves on the Grim Reaper's body was frozen at this moment.

"This is…"

  Mu You was startled, this effect, could it be that time stands still?

   Mu You didn't know who started the time stop this time. The question is, after time stopped, he was still conscious?

   Not only consciousness, he even feels that his body can move freely!

  Just as he was about to try to take a step forward, Vivian's voice transmission suddenly sounded in his mind: "Don't move! Hold your breath and slow down your heartbeat as much as possible."

  Mu You was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly stopped, and did as she said.

   At the same time, he suddenly saw that Hongxiu, who was kneeling on the ground in the distance, seemed to be moving, but it wasn't her moving, but her stomach moving.

  In her protruding belly, at a certain moment, something suddenly tore a hole from the inside, and then two small hands came out, stretching the hole wide, and a small head covered in mucus poked out from the hole.

  The face of the seven-month-old doll was not even fully formed, but soon after it appeared, the doll's face changed rapidly, and finally condensed into an old face, and opened its eyes.

After the doll's head appeared, the originally still red sleeves suddenly moved, but instead of standing up normally, they stood up from the ground one by one like an unconscious zombie until they stood up, then bent down and dragged up. After picking up the body of the Z-world walker on the ground, he turned around, walked away with the steps of a zombie, and walked away in a leisurely manner.

   Not far in front of her, an oval teleportation port appeared at some point.

  At this time, Vivienne didn't say what to do, and Mu You didn't dare to move. He could only watch helplessly as the two stepped into the portal until they disappeared.

   And just a few seconds after they disappeared, Mu You saw two floating phantoms suddenly appear out of thin air at the place where Hongxiu stayed just now.

  Some familiar upper body human figure, lower body smoke shape, holding a knife and fork and a giant axe.

   After one of them appeared, it rushed straight to the portal that hadn't disappeared yet.

  The other one turned its head to look around for a week, and scanned the people present one by one. After confirming that there was no problem, it followed the footsteps of the previous one, entered the portal, and disappeared.

  As the two strange creatures also left, the distant portal automatically shrunk and disappeared, and the surrounding time quietly resumed its flow.

   "Boom!"

  The fist of the giant in the distance smashed down, but naturally it didn't hit anything.

   Mu You didn't have time to ask Vivian in detail, because after Lin Xue's time stop ended, the phantom of death on her body quickly faded until it disappeared.

   And Lin Xue looked at them, as if she wanted to come over, but just after taking two steps, one of them lost his footing, fell to the ground, and stopped moving.

  Mu You and Shadow Wolf rushed to approach her, helped her up, and checked her.

   Fortunately, she just fainted from exhaustion, and there was no wound on her body.

However, in the Omniscient Crystal, Mu You saw that Lin Xue's attributes at this time, except for her agility, which was still in double digits, had all dropped to the lowest point, and after her name, she also followed a "weak state" 'Tag of.

   "What happened just now? Why did it suddenly stop when it was turned on, and why did it stop when I seemed to be immune?"

   After confirming that Lin Xue was fine, Mu You had time to ask about the situation just now.

   "You stop being immune because of what you just got." Vivienne said.

   "You said this?"

  Mu You hurriedly took out the hollowed out cube just now, but only after taking it out did he find that there seemed to be more cracks on the surface of the cube.

   "This shell is called the 'time sensor', and it is a prop specially used to be immune to time stop." Vivienne said.

   "So I just need to hold this, and if there are people who stop time in the future, I will follow it no matter where I am?" Mu You asked.

   "Of course it's not that powerful. It's just a passive sensor. It will only be triggered if there are people around you who turn on it or stop and walk from time to time. This is the same as me." Vivienne said.

"oh…"

  Mu You immediately understood. Just like Z World Walker, only when this guy pauses time near them, Vivian can follow into the stop world.

  Otherwise, the z-world walker stopped in the astral world countless times before, wouldn't Vivian be forced to stop every time?

  It was the same just now, only when the baby and those two strange creatures were present, he could see the scene of Time Stop, and when those people left, Time Stop immediately ended.

   "This sensor is already in a damaged state, and the damaged time sensor will continue to collapse with the number of times it is turned on, until it is completely broken. You can't use it a few times."

  Vivian took a look at the things in his hand, and continued: "What's really useful to you is what's in the sensor."

   "This fragment?"

   "Yes, you can take it out and try to integrate it into your pocket watch." Vivienne said.

  Mu You immediately followed suit, pinched the cube, used a floating technique, and carefully moved the fragments out of the gap little by little.

   Immediately took the pocket watch and moved the fragment closer to it.

   When the fragments touched the surface of the pocket watch, there was a shimmer of light, and they automatically merged into it.

   Mu You hurriedly looked at the pocket watch with the Omniscient Crystal, and the feedback information at this time became:

  【Time Pocket Watch: Press the pocket watch to go back ten seconds before, and the cooldown time is ten seconds. 】

   Mu You was surprised to see that such a small piece actually doubled the function of the pocket watch!

  Backtracking five seconds becomes backtracking ten seconds, and there are many more operations that can be completed.

Not to mention, just for the matter of refining potions, the combination of the pocket watch and the Fool's card can already make a retrospective, which can be extended to an hour at most, so that he can train some advanced potions with more complicated processes !

   "What is this thing?" Mu You hurriedly looked at Vivian.

   "A fragment of the heart of time." Vivian said.

   "The Heart of Time...where can I get it?" Mu You asked.

   Something that can upgrade a pocket watch is too hot for him.

  Vivian gave him a weird look: "You don't have to think about it, unless you also want to be hunted down by the time guardians like the old man just now."

   "Old man? Time Guardian?"

   Mu You was taken aback.

  The old man is obviously referring to the strange baby that got out of Hongxiu's belly just now, and the time guardian should be the two floating creatures just now.

   It turns out that they are in a hunting relationship, no wonder they appear one after another.

"Time Guardians are regular creatures that guard the order of time. Anyone who stops time without permission will be hunted down by them. But the old man made a bigger mistake. He directly stole the fragments of the Heart of Time, and even There may be more than one piece, so he will be hunted down forever, as long as he dares to show up in any area of ​​the real world, he will immediately attract time guardians." Vivian said.

   "Wait, you said that people who stop time at will will be hunted down, so why aren't Z-world walkers hunted down?" Mu You asked.

   If it is a crime to suspend time at will, then Z World Walker is definitely an outlaw lunatic. As a result, this guy has never been controlled.

   "This, I don't know, maybe he has something special."

  Vivian shook her head: "This is probably why the old man chose him to train..."
