MTL - This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic-Chapter 379 sleeping dream

  Chapter 379 Sleeping Dream

  Half dreaming and half awake, Mianmian found herself at a beach.

  On the beach ahead, a little girl with bob hair and wearing a kimono is squatting on the ground, concentrating on building a sand castle.

  At this time, the little girl seemed to be aware of her existence. She looked up, and when she saw her, she smiled at her, waved her hand, and called her to play with her.

   Mianmian subconsciously walked over.

  However, before she could take a few steps, multiple black shadows suddenly appeared behind the girl. The black shadows covered the girl's mouth from behind and took her away. No matter how the little girl struggled, it was useless.

   Seeing the girl being arrested, Mianmian hurriedly chased after her. However, after running, she realized that her body was so heavy, her whole body seemed to be filled with lead, making it difficult for her to walk every time she lifted her foot.

Not only that, the sand under her body suddenly turned into quicksand. Every time she took a step, she sank a little bit until her legs were completely sunk in the sand, and she couldn't move at all. She could only watch helplessly as the girl cried and walked away from her. farther away...

"No…"

  Mianmian woke up from the nightmare, only to find that she was lying on the bed, and the quilt in front of her was moving up little by little.

  Mianmian looked aside along the quilt, and saw a group of dark human figures standing beside the bed, with both hands carefully pinching the corners of the quilt to cover her body, the movements were extremely gentle, for fear of waking her up.

  At this moment, Mianmian woke up, her eyes met, and the shadow ghost's movements froze for a moment. After two seconds of sluggishness, she let out a whine, then turned around and quickly fled out the door.

   "Mengmeng!"

  Mianmian hurriedly got up from the bed, chased Shadow Ghost out the door.

  However, Yinggui floated extremely fast, and when she chased her down the stairs, Yinggui had already quickly floated to Mu You who was playing with his mobile phone at the front of the store, plunged into his shadow, and disappeared.

  Mianmian trotted all the way here, hurriedly lay down on the ground, looked left and right around Mu You's shadow, but couldn't find any shadow ghosts.

   "Are you awake?" Mu You looked at her.

   "Mu You, where is Meng Meng?" The little girl hurriedly looked up at Mu You.

   Mu You glanced at the shadow on the ground.

  Through the shadow, he could see the shadow ghost hugging the shadow pompom, shivering in a certain corner of the shadow between the shadows.

   "If you block it like this, of course it won't dare to show up." Mu You shook his head at her.

   "I...just want to talk to her..." Mianmian lowered her head a little disappointed.

"Don't worry, now Shadow Ghost's intelligence is like a newborn baby, it is fragile and sensitive, especially when facing you. If you want to communicate with it, you must first make it feel safe, and wait for it to take the initiative to approach you , instead of you chasing it abruptly, which will only make her afraid of you." Mu You said.

   "What do I need to do?" Mianmian hurriedly looked at Mu You and asked.

   "It's very simple, as long as you smile more."

   "Laughing?"

"This shadow ghost was born to protect you. It is the meaning of its existence to help you drive away all the pain. It will feel at ease when it sees you happy. On the contrary, if you are sad every day, it will also suffer along with it." Mu travel road.

  After listening to Mianmian, she hurriedly tried to free up her facial muscles, trying to make a 'laughing' expression.

However, the experience of living in the dark for a long time has made her develop a physical habit that is close to facial paralysis. "Laughing" is a very unfamiliar word to her body. At this time, she forced herself to laugh, and the result was the expression she made All sorts of fragments.

   "This is so hard..."

  While complaining, Mianmian was still facing the mirror, kneading her cheeks with both hands, practicing the expression of smiling seriously.

  “There are many ways to express happiness, and it doesn’t have to be a smile on your face…”

   Mu You gave her a funny look, took out a temporary ID card from the drawer, and handed it to her: "Your."

"What?"

  Mianmian took it subconsciously, and glanced at the certificate. The signature on the certificate was 'Mumian Meng', and next to it was a photo of a little girl with black hair and black pupils and delicate facial features.

   "Who is this little girl who looks familiar and has the same surname as you?" Mian Mian looked at Mu You strangely.

   "Of course you..."

   "Me?" Mianmian was taken aback, then subconsciously glanced at the photo and the signature next to it, looked up at him, and corrected: "My name is Mianmian!"

   "I know, but Mianmian is a nickname. From now on, if you want to live normally on Earth, you must have an official name." Mu You laughed.

   This certificate is the result of his busy work all afternoon. He declared the identity of the little girl as an "orphan who wandered from another world". He picked it up some time ago and has taken her in the store for a while.

   Such things are not uncommon in the past six months. The existence of space rifts often causes creatures from other worlds to flow to the earth, and some children occasionally appear among them. After the public beta test, there is already a special law in this area. People who adopt these orphans from other worlds need to go through strict scrutiny of their identities, and can only adopt them if they meet the standards in all aspects. Children who are not adopted will be sent to special orphanages .

Of course, the normal adoption process cannot be so fast, but after all, Mu You is an insider, and he has just reached a cooperation with the country (ancient tree of knowledge), so there will be no difficulties in such unimportant matters, and the green light is given all the way in the process. That's why he settled down so quickly.

  As for the photo above, it was taken by Lin Xue for the little girl. Of course, it has undergone some processing, such as correcting the color of the eyes, and the red eyes in the ID photo are still a little abrupt.

   "Mu follows my surname, Mianmeng is you and Mengmeng's names each took a word. You see if it fits, if you don't like it, you still have a chance to change it." Mu You said to her.

   "Mumianmeng, Mianmeng, Mengmeng and I..." Mianmian murmured as she looked at the name on the certificate, her eyes gradually lit up, and she quickly raised her head and said, "There is no need to change it, this is what I want!"

"sure?"

   "Sure! Mu Mianmeng, this is my name...I'm going to practice now..."

  The little girl walked around happily holding the ID, and then quickly ran upstairs with the ID in both hands.

  As soon as Mianmian left, the shadow ghost hidden in the shadow also poked out again, and followed behind her like a follower.

   Mu You watched one person and one ghost playing hide-and-seek amusedly, and ignored them, returning his attention to the game.

  The jack-o-lantern was triggered just now, showing traces of someone being attacked on the ground, and asked him if he acted bravely.

  Of course Mu You chose 'Yes'. Currently, there are no negative options for jack-o-lantern triggers.

  【You followed the traces of the trail, and soon came to the depths of the dark alley. 】

  【The pumpkin lantern emits a faint blue light, reflecting the scene ahead: a vampire is biting a comatose young woman's neck from behind, eating it! 】

   "Vampire?"

   Mu You was taken aback for a moment. He intended to find a werewolf, but he didn't expect to run into a vampire first.

   It’s true, there are not only werewolves but also vampires who attack humans at night.

  Mu You didn’t have this need because he raised a gargoyle and automatically helped him suppress his blood-sucking desire every day, but normal vampires need to **** blood every day.

  【The vampire noticed that someone was approaching, and immediately became vigilant. He let go of the unconscious woman in his hand, opened his mouth full of blood, bared his fangs, and made a threatening voice at you, warning you not to approach. 】

[However, a few seconds later, the vampire suddenly put away his fangs, wiped his mouth hastily, came to you in fear, and bowed down to salute you: "It turns out that it is the Earl, but the villain has poor eyesight, and thought it was the church and the demon hunter People from the guild..."]

"Um?"

   Mu You was taken aback for a moment. It is true that he has the skin of a vampire now, but wearing a thousand faces, his appearance should have changed. The other party actually recognized him?

   Just as he was wondering, another prompt popped up in the game.

  【The vampire family has a strict hierarchy. As a vampire viscount, the other party can recognize the aura of a superior on your body, so he respects you. 】

  【Now, you may take the opportunity to ask the other party for some information. 】

  【Ask the clan association. 】

  【Ask the blood race. 】

  【Ask the Rhine family. 】

   "Is it just a title..."

  Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the other party only recognized his level, and didn't know his specific identity.

   When he came back to his senses, Mu You looked at the three options below, and clicked through them one by one with his pocket watch.

  【You ask the other party about the vampire society. 】

[The vampire tells you that the clan meeting that was originally scheduled to open three days ago has not yet been held, because the Rhine family that holds the heart of the mist has not been able to hand over the heart of the fog for a long time, so the clan meeting cannot be opened. On behalf of the entire tribe, a stern warning was issued to the Rhine family, requiring them to hand over the Heart of Mist before the dark night, otherwise the Rhine family would be expelled from the blood race. 】

   "Heart of the Mist..."

Mu You was a little embarrassed, this Rhine family was actually the family where his skin owner belonged, before this family even sent a blood servant to the Misty Mountain to get the Misty Heart, but he killed it and left it for him The clan association invitation letter' was also forgotten by him, after all, he never thought of coming to any clan association.

   Unexpectedly, this vampire's clan would collide with this mission, and if he didn't come to the clan meeting, the consequences seemed to be quite serious, directly implicating the entire clan where the skin belonged to being expelled.

   Now Mu You is also a little embarrassed.

  The vampire skin has provided him with great help. He is short-handed. From a moral point of view, the skin family is in trouble, so he should help.

But on the other hand, after all, he has already extracted the skin. If someone sees his identity as a fool, it means that the original vampire earl has died in his hands. Will he be hated or even hunted down by the Rhine family? ?

   Mu You couldn't make a decision for a while, so he had to continue to look down.

  【You ask about the basic situation of the other party's blood race. 】

  【The vampire gave you a strange look, but did not question it, and quickly explained to you the basic composition of the vampire. 】

  【The blood **** believed by the blood clan is the blood god, and the clansmen under the **** are divided into ancestors, dukes, marquises, earls, viscounts, barons, and ordinary blood clans according to their status. There are also man-made blood servants under the ordinary blood family, but they are not classified into the category of the orthodox blood family. At present, there are 3,421 surviving orthodox blood clans, divided into 13 clans, and further subdivided into 72 families. Large families have hundreds of people, and small families have only dozens of people or even single-digit populations. Usually, families are basically clustered. , living in seclusion all over the world, except for clan meetings and some fixed festivals, the families do not communicate with each other. 】

   "So the entire blood race is only more than 3,000 people?"

   Mu You was taken aback for a moment, the number of people was much smaller than he imagined.

  【Time goes by, you ask the other party about the situation and location of the Rhine family. 】

[The vampire tells you that a powerful vampire count once appeared in the Rhine family thousands of years ago, and was once one of the top ten families. However, since that earl disappeared, the glory of the Rhine family has continued to decline. It is an ordinary small family with a total population of more than ten people, and the highest status is only a viscount, which is inconspicuous among the blood clan. 】

  【As for the location of the Rhine family... The vampire said that because vampires often move, the location of each family is not fixed, and he does not know the current specific location of the Rhine family. But, a few days ago, he met people from the Rhine family near the dark forest in the north of the city, maybe you can go there and look for it...]

  The Rhine family seems to be very weak...

   Mu You relaxed a little, so even if he was really hated and hunted down by this family, it didn't seem like a big problem.

   After asking about the address, Mu You didn't make things difficult for the vampire anymore, and prepared to leave.

  【You declined the proposal of the vampire viscount to invite you to enjoy 'food' together, left the alley and rushed to the dark forest. 】

  【On the way...】

   Mu You still decided to look for the Rhine family, but he didn't intend to show up. Instead, he planned to leave the Heart of Mist to them in secret, which would be regarded as the utmost kindness to the owner of the skin.

  This forest is outside the Dark City, not too far from the city. It belongs to a low-level leveling ground, and some people who don't like the city's hustle and bustle will live in this forest.

  Ten minutes later, Mu You arrived at the place.

  However, just as he was thinking about how to find someone, a text popped up in the game.

  【Before you came to the dark forest, before you stepped into the forest, a call came from behind you: "Brother?"】

  【You turn around and find a 'bat' hanging upside down on a big tree behind you. The bat quickly spread its wings and landed, turning into a graceful female vampire. 】

[The vampire came towards you uncertainly, and stopped a few meters in front of you. After careful identification, he suddenly showed a pleasant smile, walked quickly to your side, and took your arm: "My lord brother , It really is you!"]

  【You look at the other party, and the information of the vampire is fed back from the omniscience crystal. 】

  【Rhein Mai (not evolved at level 20): Rhine Liston's younger sister, the eldest daughter of the Rhine family, a vampire viscount, has unlocked the family talent: super sense. 】

   Mu You's eyelids twitched when he saw that, Rhine Mai, was the owner of the blood servant he killed before, that is, his own sister with this skin, unexpectedly met the rightful owner when he first arrived.

   But what puzzled him was why the other party could still recognize him even though he was wearing a thousand faces?

  Mu You was considering whether to go back and avoid this encounter, but the text popped up again.

  【Seeing the blank expression on your face, Reinmai looked at you with some concern: "Brother, you don't know me anymore? Sure enough, your'amnesia' has struck again?"】
