Chapter 275 Complete Ice Spirit
This skin does not have a lifespan task, but the talent of 'survival of the fittest' is really powerful. The lower the life, the faster it can evolve to adapt to the current harsh environment. Died in a harsh environment.
Of course, if you suffer from physical or magical attacks, hunger, bleeding, etc., you will die or die.
【Your skin is full, do you want to devour the skin with the Count Vampire skin? Note: After swallowing, the skin's talents and curses will be fully inherited, and an additional random curse will be obtained. 】
This skin talent also belongs to the talent that can be used to gain benefits in battle, and like the vampire count, it has a "burning sun" restriction during the day, basically it can only be used at night, and it can be swallowed directly with the vampire skin.
【You merged the skin of 'Servant Rodney' into the skin of the Count Vampire. 】
【The fusion is successful, your Vampire Count skin has acquired the talent 'survival of the fittest' and the curse 'greed'. 】
【The Fusion Curse is randomized... the Vampire Earl's skin has acquired the curse of 'high myopia': the scenery three meters away is blurry to you, you'd better get a pair of glasses as soon as possible. 】
Mu You raised his eyebrows. Sure enough, the talent this time is very strong, resulting in a random curse that is not weak. The curse of myopia is fine if it is a life-type skin, but it has a great impact on the combat skin.
"Backtrack!"
Mu You pressed the pocket watch and rolled the curse again.
【...You got the random curse 'death memory': every time you die, you will permanently reduce the upper limit of 100 points of health. 】
"Backtrack!"
【...You got the random curse 'Silver Fear': silver utensils are your weakness, once you are stabbed by silver utensils, it will cause high damage to you. 】
"Backtracking..."
…
The following random curses were indeed a powerful batch. After dozens of times of randomization, Mu You finally picked out a curse that was relatively less scary.
【Death Punishment: The experience and lifespan you lose every time you die increases by ten times. 】
A ten-fold increase may seem scary, but in fact, it means losing one year of life after one death, and losing ten years of life after one death. After all, life can be obtained infinitely. The chance of coming back is not like the previous one that deducted the upper limit of health points. If it is reduced, it cannot be replenished. It will become less and less until the body becomes a glass bottle that dies when touched. That is the truly terrible curse.
Besides, it is not so easy to want him to die once under the vampire's skin.
So Mu You stayed on this curse, and did not continue to randomize.
After collecting the skins, the next step is the main reward: Heart of Mist.
【Heart of Fog: Create a large-scale ring-shaped fog around it. The range of the fog can be controlled. People in the fog may lose their sense of direction. 】
This thing is indeed the source of the mist around the Misty Mountain. Mu You had experienced the effect of the mist before. It can be said that if he hadn't had a jack-o-lantern, it would have been impossible to find the entrance to the tomb.
To put it bluntly, this thing is a magical tool for avoiding the world. It is no wonder that the vampire clan needs this thing. With its cover, these vampires who can't see the light can open the clan meeting normally.
It is a very powerful treasure, but if Muyou takes it away directly, the mist in the Misty Mountain will recede, and this tomb will be exposed to the eyes of most people, so usually this bead should be stored in the Misty Mountain first, and it will be stored in the Misty Mountain when it is really necessary. Take it away and use it.
After watching the two trophies, Mu You didn't rest, and the character got into the fireplace, ready to go to the top of the mountain to have a look.
The dwarf blacksmith left him a map of the top of the mountain before, which is said to be the location marked on the map, showing the storage location of a piece of 'cold iron essence', which is a necessary material for repairing the synthesis furnace. The ability to survive on the top of the mountain, Mu You is going to get it back immediately, so as not to have long nights and dreams.
【You climbed all the way up the stone chimney, and after ten minutes, you finally came to the exit of the chimney. 】
【You have come to the top of Misty Mountain. 】
【Under the severe cold of the snow mountain, your health began to drop rapidly...】
【...Your life value dropped to a point, and under the effect of the survival of the fittest talent, your life value stopped depleting. 】
【Although your hands and feet have been sore from the cold, your consciousness is blurred, and your bones and flesh are almost frozen into lumps of ice, but you are still tenaciously alive...】
Mu You who was in the study shivered, and under the effect of sharing the pain, he could clearly feel the stinging pain from the extreme cold around his body, as if there were countless tiny needles pricking his body.
The pain felt after being reduced by ten times is this kind of feeling. It is really hard to imagine what kind of pain the game character in the opposite star spirit world is experiencing.
【With trembling hands, you took out the 'simple map of the misty mountaintop', and started to look for the location marked on it along the map...】
【You found a 'Ice Spirit Grass', which is a relatively rare ice-type spiritual plant that only grows on extremely cold snow-capped mountains. It is an important ingredient for many frost-type potions...】
【Cut off the sickle, you collected 'Ice Spirit Grass'*1, Herbal Essence*1. 】
…
[You found a plant of 'Snowball Pashmina', which is a kind of dandelion fruit that grows on snowball grass. It looks like a dandelion. The cilia on the surface are ice crystal snowflakes, which will fly to other places with the cold wind , until it blooms and bears fruit again, it is one of the main materials for refining ice resistance potions...]
【Cut off the sickle, you collected 'Snowball Pashmina'*1, Herb Essence*1. 】
…
There are many ice-type spiritual grasses on the top of the snow-capped mountains. Plants that can survive in this kind of freezing weather are often more precious, and it is completely worthwhile to pick them physically. It's a pity that because the body is frozen and ordinary mounts can't bear the temperature here, Mu You can only walk on two legs, and the moving speed is extremely slow. It takes about half an hour to pick a herb.
Fortunately, because it was too cold, there were almost no monsters on the top of the mountain. Even if he dangled a little blood, he didn't have to worry about being attacked.
【After trekking all the way through the ice and snow, you finally arrived at the location marked on the map. 】
【You searched around and found nothing...】
【You searched around and found nothing...】
…
Arrived at the place, Mu You repeatedly jumped around for more than ten times, and even sprinkled lucky dust, but still failed to trigger any text prompts.
It is said that if there is metal hidden in this unobstructed place, it should be easy to find it under the jack-o-lantern.
"Could it have been taken away?"
Mu You couldn't help but think of this possibility.
After all, hundreds of years have passed, and there is a possibility that someone came to the vicinity halfway and just discovered the iron essence.
But he didn't give up that easily. Anyway, he used up all the dust. There are not many reserves of this thing now. There is only the last bottle and a half left, and he can use it for about seven times. The key is that after the moth fairy disappeared, the dust is gone. As for the supplementary method, one time is less once used, and he is very unwilling to use dust but have no harvest, so he expanded the search range and continued to search nearby.
Fortunately, after searching around like this, he really found some clues.
【In the strong glow, you see some strange hexagonal snowflake-like ice crystal traces on the ice and snow in front of you, extending in one direction and disappearing into the night. Are you following them? 】
"Snowflake?"
Mu You was taken aback for a moment, he thought he had found some footprints, but it turned out to be just traces.
"Tracking!" Whatever it is, have to go see it first.
【You followed the traces of the hexagonal ice crystals all the way, and soon came to a snow cave, and the traces disappeared in the dark snow cave ahead. 】
【You choose to step into it. This is a carefully carved ice and snow cave, surrounded by walls made of smooth ice crystals, and under the feet is a mirror-like frosty ground. 】
【You see an irregular stone pillar in the depths of the cave. The top of the stone pillar is condensed with ice crystals into a snow nest, and a spherical silver metal is placed in the snow nest. 】
【This is a piece of cold iron essence. This active metal, like a mass of unconscious slime, wriggled in the snow nest, and as it collided with the surrounding frost, the metal surface set off waves like ripples. 】
Han Tiejing, I found it!
However, the description in this text is a bit strange. The iron essence is stored in a snow cave, and this snow cave is actually 'smooth as a mirror'. Judging from the description, it seems to be artificially made.
Are there still people living on this snow mountain?
【You walked towards the depths of the cave and came to the snow nest, wanting to pick up the iron essence. 】
However, just when he was about to succeed, an accident happened.
【Just when you touched the metal, you suddenly heard a cry of 'Fu' from behind. 】
[You subconsciously look back, and what appeared at the entrance of the snow cave was a little fox with silver hair all over its body. When it saw you stealing the iron essence, it immediately grinned at you angrily, and then raised its paws. The next moment , countless ice thorns emerged in the hole, flying towards you one after another. 】
【The stiff body caused your movement speed to be greatly reduced. You were unable to react in time, and were instantly hit by countless ice thorns, losing your last little life. 】
【You are dead, experience value -100, lifespan -10 years...】
"Depend on!"
Mu You's eyelids jumped when he saw it, there really was something living here!
Hastily pressed the pocket watch, and then clicked on the 'life barrier' on the panel as quickly as possible.
【Time flows, you go back to five seconds ago, and immediately cast a 'life barrier' on yourself with a swing. 】
【Because of the extreme cold state, your singing speed is 300% slower than usual. 】
【The fox's cry reappeared, and in the next second, countless ice thorns formed around you, flying towards you like thousands of arrows piercing your heart. 】
【Fortunately, your spell is completed first. 】
【The protective barrier rises around you, blocking all the ice thorn attacks for you. Amidst the crisp and crisp collision sounds of countless frosts, you maintain the last bit of life and stand still. 】
【You took advantage of the five seconds when the barrier was in effect, set down the dark teleportation array aside, then took away the metal on the stone platform, and jumped into the array before the next round of attacks arrived. 】
【Before teleportation, you turn around and the white fox is already very close to you. At close range, the omniscient crystal feeds back the other party's information for you. 】
[Shui Ling (ice form) (full body): an elemental creature formed by the condensation of pure water elements. Due to long-term exposure to the extremely cold environment, it has mutated into an ice spirit form, and has evolved into a complete body, possessing a high degree of wisdom and a certain degree of transformation. Shape ability, and can call the surrounding ice elements to fight, has a good combat effectiveness. 】
【Amidst a sense of dizziness, you returned to the secret chamber of the tomb...】
"Ice Spirit?"
Mu You was surprised. He thought the little fox was some kind of beast that lived on the ice field, but it turned out to be an elemental creature?
And unlike the Fire Spirit and Thunder Spirit seen before, this Ice Spirit has evolved to a full body! Not only has the ability to change form, but also has a very strong combat power.
The mature fire spirit owned by the owner of Coke before, adds 6 points of fire talent to the bearer. According to this rule, the full ice spirit can add at least 8 points of water talent!
That is to say, if he can get this ice spirit, even his water element talent can be instantly promoted to the top level!
Mu You admitted that he was moved.
Unfortunately, it is not easy to capture this ice spirit, especially on the top of this snow mountain, which is completely the home field of ice spirits. Ice elements are everywhere, and its attacks are easy to come by, making it difficult to parry.
However, Mu You's movement speed and spell casting speed on the snow-capped mountains will all be greatly reduced, and 10% of his abilities will not be able to use 10%. The most important thing is that he still has only a little blood. When fighting, it is basically the same as before, and there is no time to do anything. You will be beaten like a mouse.
Unable to think of a solution for a while, Mu You had no choice but to ask Vivienne about Bing Ling's weakness.
"Ice spirit..."
Unexpectedly, Vivian shook her head after listening to it: "If you are a perfect body, you don't have to expect extravagantly. Elemental spirits need to be cultivated from childhood to fully obey humans. The wild perfect body ice spirits already have extremely powerful abilities." High intelligence, even if they capture them, they won't make a contract with others."
After finishing speaking, Weiwei paused, and added: "However, because of its high intelligence, although it cannot be contracted, it can be treated as a real 'person'. If you can let it treat you If you let go of your guard and trust, you will have the opportunity to ask it to help you with some favors, such as helping you comprehend spells and the like, in short, it is a relationship similar to employment, not a master-servant."
"so…"
Mu You nodded, but smiled wryly in his heart.
In short, if you want to get Bingling's help, you need enough favorability, but he just stole Tie Jing face to face. From the description, it seems that Tie Jing was raised by Bing Ling as a baby, and was snatched away in person' Child', it's no wonder that Bing Ling doesn't hate him to the bone, how could he have any liking for him.
"pity…"
Mu You shook his head, and didn't regret it for too long. After all, the most needed iron essence has already been obtained. As for the ice spirit, it is of course best to have it. If it is not, it is just to learn less magic. It is not a big loss.
After the matter was settled, Mu You immediately sent the cold iron essence to the dwarf blacksmith.
【You came to the door of the blacksmith. 】
【The dwarf blacksmith was woken up by your knock on the door, got up angrily and opened the door for you...】
【After receiving the three bottles of unknown wine from you, the attitude of the dwarf blacksmith suddenly turned 180 degrees, and he invited you in very politely...】
This old blacksmith is much easier to deal with than the Pandaren, and he is very happy to drink a few bottles of modern wine.
【You take out the synthesis furnace and the cold iron essence you just obtained, and give it to the dwarf blacksmith, and ask him to repair the furnace for you. 】
【The blacksmith looked at the fist-sized living metal exuding an extremely cold breath in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. When he put the iron essence seedlings on the snow-capped mountains, they were only the size of soybeans. He never expected that in just a few hundred years, they would grow into mature iron essences the size of fists...]
Looking at the blacksmith's emotions in the text, Mu You felt even more guilty. The iron spirit's ability to grow so fast probably had something to do with Bingling's long-term nurturing. As a result, he has stolen all his hard work for so many years. No wonder That ice spirit would act so angry.
【The blacksmith brought the synthesis furnace into the workshop, lit the fire, and began to work with clangs. 】
【The synthesis furnace is being repaired, it is expected to be completed in seventeen hours...】
It will take a long time to repair, so Mu You temporarily left the blacksmith shop.
Originally, he was planning to go back to the old grandma to have a look, but he was halfway there when a message popped up in the game that surprised him.
【The Hydralisk guard you installed on the Ghost sent back a message for you: The Ghost seems to have been attacked by the enemy just now, you'd better go back and have a look as soon as possible. 】
"oh?"
Mu You raised his eyebrows, the Ghost was attacked, this was the first time since he got the pirate ship.
But today is already Thursday, so the ship should be approaching the Sea of Evil Spirits soon. There must be a lot of pirates near the Sea of Evil Spirits. Could it be that other pirates have already spotted them?
Before he had time to think about it, Mu You immediately turned back to the blacksmith and went to the ghost ship through the teleportation array.
【You appear in the captain's cabin of the Ghost. 】
【When you walk out of the captain's cabin, you will see a panic on the deck, a smell of gunpowder smoke, and some parts of the hull are slightly damaged. 】
【The guardian of the forest is raising his thick treant arm, and smashing magic stones in a certain direction in the distance. 】
【A crew skeleton soldier saw you and rushed to report the situation to you: The Ghost spotted another ship ten minutes ago. The crew obeyed your order and did not attack it, but avoided it first. But what I didn't expect was that just now, another ship appeared behind the Ghost and launched a long-range bombardment directly at us. 】
Two ships came at once? Flanking back and forth?
Mu You frowned, and didn't rush to give an order. Instead, he summoned the war eagle in the game, and sent the war eagle to fly high into the sky to inspect the situation.
As a result, the news that came back surprised him even more.
【Through the perspective of the war eagle, you can see the front, back, left, and right sides of the Ghost, and there are faint shadows of sea ships in all directions, floating in the mist on the sea. 】
【After some inventory, you found that there are a total of eight seagoing ships with pirate flags nearby, encircling the Ghost in the center in a standard octagonal formation. 】
Eight ships!
Mu You's face is weird, this is not being attacked, this is clearly surrounded...
It is said that this is his first appearance in the Sea of Evil Spirits, and no one knows him. If there are only aboriginal pirates on the other side, it would be too outrageous to dispatch eight pirate ships to encircle him at once.
In this way, are the surroundings handwritten by players?
Just as he was thinking, a new prompt popped up in the game.
【Player 'Son of Heaven' applied to add you as a friend, do you agree? 】
