Chapter 271 Dreamland Traveler
After hanging up the phone, Mu You turned on the stealth card and hurried back home.
It was not until he returned to the pet shop that Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, opened the wine bottle, and let the little girl out.
The little girl crawled out of the bottle and quickly returned to her normal size.
"I accepted your commission. I will find a way to save your sister in the future, but not now." Mu You looked at the little girl who got under the table as soon as she came out, and looked at the surroundings carefully while holding the table legs.
Right now everyone is busy robbing the City of Sky, and he is no exception, and the Cook Islands are also at sea, so they need a boat to go there.
"oh…"
The little girl seemed to have expected that Mu You would say this, and she didn't show too much excitement, but her face was slightly disappointed.
As soon as the words fell, her stomach suddenly made a very loud protest: "Goo!"
The girl hastily covered her stomach tightly, buried her head in her collar, her face was as red as a tomato.
"Let me order a takeaway for you."
Mu You didn't laugh at her either, he took out his phone and opened the ordering software.
"From now on, you will live here first, as long as you don't run around, you will be safe here..."
This girl is also currently a shady identity, and she cannot be allowed to show up in front of people for the time being.
While Mu You was considering where to place her, he suddenly felt his clothes being pulled.
Looking down, the girl was tugging at the hem of his clothes, looking at him expectantly, and asked cautiously: "Can I go and see the cat?"
"Go."
Mu You didn't refuse either, and opened the zoo's backpack entrance for her.
"Wow!"
Looking at the animals in the garden, the little girl's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to run into the garden.
There were too many people here yesterday, she didn't dare to show her face, she took a peek at the kitten and left in a hurry, but now she is alone, and finally she can play with the animals to her heart's content.
The little girl looked around, looked around, her face was full of novelty, and her eyes felt a little insufficient. Finally, she ran to the cat nest in the center and interacted with the two kittens.
"Cuckoo!"
At this time, Mu You was placed in the bird cage on the table, and the voice of protest from the wicked bird came.
"Got it, got it, I'll take you to pick the eggs." Mu You lifted the birdcage, opened the lock cylinder space and walked in.
Just now, the Wicked Bird will do its best to help him defeat the enemy. Of course, there is a condition. The condition is that it will choose three silver owl eggs to take away after returning.
Entering the space, the Wicked Bird immediately dropped Mu You and flew to the edge of the glass incubator to pick eggs.
Mu You took a bucket of canned vegetarian food and went to feed the unicorn.
After most of the animals were relocated to the zoo, the unicorn had fewer playmates and got closer to Mu You. It would no longer hide from him as before. Every time Mu You came to feed, The unicorn will also excitedly wag its ponytail and circle around him, taking the initiative to get close to him.
Watching the unicorn happily eating fruit from the can, Mu You was thinking about the newly obtained piece.
As for the shards of Lie Sun City, he knew that the lions were collecting them, and he had already found a collaborator, showing the contents of the map.
And Muyou didn't have any preparations for this city, and he was busy fighting for Liming City, so he didn't care about competing for other cities for the time being.
Since this is the case, it is better to simply give this fragment to the lion, and let him exchange it for a fragment from another city.
For the other fragments, what Muyou needs most is of course Dawn City, but according to the current situation, the emperor, Jack, and himself, the fragments of Dawn City have been basically monopolized by the three parties, and they want to find the idle Dawn City Fragments, almost impossible.
Besides, even if the lion is really lucky and finds the fragments, it will not be handed over to Mu You until next week, and the competition in Dawn City is probably over by then.
After ruling out Dawn City, the most suitable one left is Eternal Night City.
Mu You now has a way to obtain a fragment of Eternal Night City, and it is still a valid fragment. If he successfully replaces this fragment in his hand with a fragment of Eternal Night City, he is equivalent to holding two fragments of Eternal Night City, so he is naturally eligible to participate In the battle for Eternal Night City.
At the same time, Eternal Night City is the last city in the sky to be opened. After completing the competition for Dawn City, he still has plenty of time to prepare.
"Let's discuss it with Lion at the meeting tomorrow..." Mu You thought secretly.
As a result, he was contemplating, when a voice suddenly came from beside him: "Wow, is this a unicorn?"
"Um?"
Mu You turned her head, looking in surprise at the little loli in kimono who suddenly appeared beside her.
"How...how did you get in?"
After he entered the lock cylinder backpack just now, he closed the entrance. Ordinarily, without his permission, it is impossible for other people to come in, but this little girl appeared here so abruptly...
"ah?"
The little girl tilted her head and looked at him with an innocent look on her face.
But this time Mu You won't let her pass the test so easily, and started a detailed questioning of the little girl.
…
Half an hour later, the little girl sat at the dining table in the shop, staring at the fried chicken bucket in front of her, grabbing a chicken leg with one hand, and devouring it. It seemed that she had been hungry for a long time.
Mu You was thinking secretly.
The tireless questioning just now made him finally vaguely understand the girl's ability.
This girl's ability, in layman's terms, is that she can transfer between various backpack spaces!
Of course, the reality is not that simple. According to her, this ability is not stable. To enter or leave a certain backpack space, she needs to be in a half-dream and half-awake state to complete it. At the same time, when she leaves the backpack space, she cannot take it with her. Anything that doesn't belong to her.
"In the astral world, there is a type of person called 'dream traveler' who can do what she said..." Vivienne suddenly sent him a voice transmission.
"Dream Traveler?"
Mu You was taken aback, he had seen this name before.
The name is mentioned in the task of the Elven Horn and the task of the Forest Elf.
The name of the task is "The Change of the Ideal Land". The ideal land mentioned in it is a beautiful and pure dreamland, and only when you are in a dream can you have the opportunity to enter it. 'People, according to the task description, under normal circumstances, dream travelers can enter the dreamland at any time while they are asleep and move freely.
"You mean, the world connected in each backpack space is the so-called 'Utopia'?" Mu You looked at Vivian and asked.
"Yes."
Vivienne nodded, seeming to be quite familiar with this: "The caretakers of Ideal Township, or managers, obtain resources by leasing the land of Ideal Township to creatures, and these leased lands will be cut from Ideal Township like tofu. Separated, transformed from a dreamland into a real space, and then made into various backpack props by the creatures."
"And this manager will also select some people from the living beings as its emissaries. These people are called 'Dream Travelers'. These people will obtain part of the manager's ability, and they can enter the ideal town at any time and be free in the ideal town. Walking. Some advanced dream travelers can also switch their states between dream and reality in the dream land, so that they can freely enter and exit those backpack spaces that have been rented out."
"I see…"
Mu You nodded, if the identity of the little girl was brought into the dream traveler, then all the abilities she showed could be explained.
No wonder she was able to come all the way from the other side of the ocean to the Celestial Dynasty alone, and also avoided countless pursuits. Her so-called "jumping over here" actually refers to transferring again and again through other people's space backpacks.
What makes Mu You strange is that this little girl is a native of the earth, and she is not qualified to enter the game at such a young age. Judging from the feedback from the Omniscient Crystal, she is indeed not a player.
Here comes the question, how can an ordinary child acquire this kind of ability unique to the star spirit world?
"What's your name?" Mu You looked at the girl and asked.
"Wojiaoye...my name is Ye Rumeng!" The little girl swallowed what was in her mouth before explaining her name clearly.
"Ye Rumeng? Are you from the Celestial Dynasty?"
"My father is from the Celestial Dynasty... Besides, my nickname is Mengmeng, and my sister's name is Mianmian." After the girl ate, she seemed to relax a lot, and she gradually talked more.
"When did you start to have this ability?" Mu You looked at the girl and asked.
"When?" The girl looked at Mu You strangely, without thinking: "It has always been..."
"Always have... You mean, you have this ability since birth?"
"Um!"
The questioning has come to an end here, and the child's thinking is relatively escaping, and she can't explain things that are too profound to her.
After she finished eating, Mu You led her upstairs.
"I'm going to prepare a place for you to live in, and you will rest here tonight."
Mu You took her into his bedroom, and since the store didn't prepare a special room, he had to let her spend the night here first.
"Thank you uncle!" The little girl bowed to him in a crisp voice.
"...My name is Mu You, you should call me by my name directly from now on."
"oh…"
…
This girl can’t show her face in front of people. It’s okay to say at night, but she can only stay in the space during the day.
Several robots started working immediately, and the sound of humming and rumbling resounded inside the space.
And Mu You didn't have time to rest, so he went back to his study and started making cards. Tomorrow is the day of this week's secret art meeting, so he has to hurry up and make two new magic cards into cards.
He kept making cards like this until five or six in the morning, when he finally converted the 'Electric Arc Sword'.
Transformed into a black magic arc sword, the name is still called the arc sword, and the effect is still the effect of adding an arc blade to any weapon, but the black magic version of the arc blade can be extended as you like, up to 40 meters away!
In short, it is possible to turn a originally short and powerful weapon into a "40-meter-long machete" at any time, or the kind that cuts iron like mud, which is very useful for cutting some huge creatures or buildings .
However, this secret technique also has a limitation, that is, the longer the arc is extended, the greater the resistance will be, and the slower the weapon swing will be.
Afterwards, Mu You continued to make cards for a while, and after making the 'Hydralisk Guard' into a card, he made several copies of each of the three new cards of this week.
After all this work, the time has come to seven o'clock in the morning.
"boss?"
"Strange, haven't woken up yet..."
…
Mu You heard movement outside, and knew that it was Xiaoya and Lin Xue coming.
He was about to go out to have a look, but he heard Xiaoya's exclamation right after.
"Ahh..."
"What's wrong?"
"It's not good, sister Xue, the boss has become a little lolita!"
"What?!"
…
"Cough, what nonsense..."
Mu You walked out of the study speechlessly, and saw two people gathered around the door of his bedroom, looking inside in surprise, but they didn't dare to step in the door.
Hearing the voice, the two turned their heads, only to see Mu You walking behind them.
"Boss? Then this is..."
Mu You walked past the two of them and went to the door to have a look. The little girl was scared under the bed by Xiaoya's voice just now, and when she saw Mu You appearing, she hurriedly crawled out from under the bed and ran to Mu You, He grabbed the hem of his clothes and hid behind him.
Both women looked at Mu You in a daze, and then at the girl behind him.
"Boss... When did you have a little Japanese niece?" Xiaoya looked at Mu You strangely.
Looking at the kimono the girl was wearing, Xue Lin quickly realized: "This is the little girl you mentioned yesterday?"
"Yes." Mu You nodded.
"Ah? What little girl?" Xiaoya looked at the two blankly. What did I miss?
Mu You briefly explained to the two of them what happened yesterday.
"In short, this child will live in the store recently, and she needs to keep her identity secret so that no outsiders can find out."
"It's too bad for these people, to actually attack such a young child..." After hearing this, Xiaoya immediately overflowed with sympathy, and her mood was probably the same as when she met those abandoned stray kittens on the side of the road.
"Is it okay to stay in the store?" Lin Xue looked at Mu You. The store is usually open, and people come and go, which seems to be more exposed.
"It doesn't matter, I prepared a house for her in the space, and let her stay in the lock cylinder space during the day, just persist for a while..."
Mu You opened the entrance to the lock cylinder space.
At this time, another wooden house has been erected next to the small wooden house at the entrance of the space.
Mu You went in and took a look. There were beds, tables, chairs, benches and windows. Although the place is small, it has all internal organs and all necessary facilities. It is no problem to live there.
"good!"
Mu You was very satisfied with the efficiency of the robot, and looked back at the three of them.
I wanted to ask for their opinions, but I didn't expect to receive unanimous opposition.
"No way, this..."
"Yeah, boss, this is too simple..."
"Too much flavor..."
…
"Uh, can't you?" Mu You asked.
"It's too rough, there are too many wood thorns, and the smell of construction is very pungent." Lin Xue's evaluation.
"Yes, boss, look at such a beautiful kimono, wear it and walk around, and it will all be scratched, are you willing to..."
"The space is too small, and there is no privacy here, she is a girl..."
"And there is no wardrobe, where do I put the changed clothes..."
"Where do you go to the toilet..."
"The sound insulation is too bad, are you sure the kids dare to sleep here alone at night..."
"It will get damp in a wooden house on a rainy day..."
…
"Well…"
The two of you talked to each other, which quickly confused Mu You.
He is used to a life where one person feeds the whole family and the whole family is not hungry. This place is also based on his own standards, and it must be enough for him to sleep, so he really didn't care about these details.
"Let's do it!"
After discussing for a while, the two women came to the conclusion that Muyou is unreliable, and they should take over the issue of arranging the little girl's accommodation.
"I leave it to you."
The two of them were willing to work hard, and Mu You was happy to be a hands-off shopkeeper. He resolutely handed over the command of the robot to them, and proposed that all the expenses for her placement and shopping would be reimbursed in the store.
…
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the pet shop is closed.
After seeing off the last batch of customers, Mu You turned around and heard Xiaoya and Lin Xue already discussing the little girl's height in full swing, and going to a certain shopping mall to buy various clothes for the girl after get off work...
Mu You was both ashamed and a little lucky, but fortunately there were two women at home, otherwise, if he was really asked to drag the daily life of a half-sized girl, it would definitely give him a headache to death.
After watching the two motherly women leave in the car, Mu You returned to the store, took out the phone, and the fool activated it.
The game was launched, but his character was still wandering around in the streets of Phoenix City.
But today was lucky, after a while, he finally found a semi-permanent job in Phoenix!
【You came to the south of Phoenix City and saw the captain of the guard, Eric, pacing anxiously in front of the city gate. 】
【Eric found you and walked towards you quickly. 】
【Eric, who has been hiding from you for two days, probably understands that he can’t escape forever, so he came to you specially today, and proposed to you, hoping to cancel the previous agreement to exchange reputation with ratmen. 】
【Of course as compensation, Eric will offer you another job. 】
【Out-of-control Mana Wyvern: The Sunlight Forest is the birthplace of the Mana Wyvern. The Mana Wyvern is a companion species of the Sun Elf family. It can be contracted as a pet by the Sun Elf and help them better release arcane magic. But strictly speaking, the mana dragon is not a real life, but an arcane creature formed by condensing pure arcane energy after receiving sufficient light. Feeds on arcane energy.
However, a small number of mana dragons cannot control the energy in their bodies. After absorbing too much energy, they will fall into a state of loss of control and will not disappear at night. They will attack and devour other mana dragons to become more violent. If they are left alone , they can wreak havoc on the ecology of sunny woodlands. Therefore, these runaway mana wyrms need to be removed regularly. 】
【The forest ranger who was guarding the Sunshine Woodland has temporarily left Phoenix City for something, and needs your help to take his place for a while. Every time you kill an out-of-control mana wyvern, you can get 10 reputation points, with a daily limit of 100 points. The arcane crystal obtained after killing the mana wyvern can be exchanged for one year of life in the mystery shop. 】
【Do you accept the task? 】
"accept!"
There is nothing to hesitate about, finally there is a reliable fixed task, Mu You decisively confirms it.
As for the missions of the Ratmen... The Ratmen on the grassland have already been cleaned up in sevens and eighties, and the physical exertion and prestige will not be directly proportional if they continue to brush up. Naturally, they should be replaced with new missions first.
What Mu You didn't expect was that after receiving the task, there was actually a paragraph of text below.
【Erik was slightly relieved to see that you had accepted the task, and then told you a new piece of information. 】
【Ms. Emma from Chengnan Knitting Shop has just submitted a request to the guards: her cat ran into the Sunshine Forest in the afternoon and has not returned so far. It is likely that she got lost in the forest. 】
【Eric hopes that after you enter Sunshine Grove, you can help Madam Emma find her cat by the way. If you can find it, he will pay you 50 reputation points, and Madam Erma will also give you an extra reward. 】
