The soul said this in fits and starts, and then vanished.

Mu You frowned and looked at the location where the soul disappeared.

I don't know what the purpose of this man was to leave him such a message before he finally died.

However, now that he knew about it, whether it was a trap or not, he had to take a look.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Mu You went to several other areas to take a look, only to find that the children who were originally imprisoned in these areas had disappeared, judging from the traces on the ground, it was probably when the shadow god broke out before, and he took the opportunity to escape.

After turning around, there were no living people in this underground factory except for the three of them.

Immediately, Mu You and Lin Xue returned to the high platform above the Gu Pond, and on the north side of the high platform, they found the floor tile that the ghost said.

"Knock Knock ......"

Mu You leaned over and tapped on the brick, and the sound was indeed different from the other bricks around him.

Use the Levitation Charm to remove the bricks from the ground, and below is a hollow compartment containing a knob trap.

Flipping the knob, there was a series of 'click' sounds under the lattice, and the bricks at the bottom were indented layer by layer, and soon a chimney-like passage was revealed, leading straight to the ground more than ten meters deep, and it was pitch black when you looked down.

Mu You switched to a robot skin and activated the sand spider nest.

Dense sand spiders poured into the passage, climbing all the way down, and soon reached the bottom.

Through the perspective of the sand spider, Mu You saw that there seemed to be something like a notebook underneath, wrapped tightly in a transparent insect-proof bag.

After a dozen seconds, swarms of sand spiders crawled back to the ground with the thick notebook in their arms.

Mu You took the note, took it out and checked it.

The title on the cover of the note: "Shadow Pom-pom Cultivation Log".

I opened it and flipped through a few pages, and it was really like the name, which was full of the growth and changes of the shadow pom-pom in various periods.

According to the instructions at the bottom of each page, this log is recorded once a year on an annual cycle, and in the upper right corner of each page, there is also a hand-drawn picture of the real-time shape of the shadow pom-pom.

Mu You quickly flipped through it, and it could be seen that the shadow pom-pom did grow up year by year, and its appearance gradually grew from the initial cute hairball form, and finally became a fierce and ugly giant monster.

Of course, as it looks ugly, its level and abilities will also increase step by step.

Judging from the description in the notes, after basically cultivating the first few years, after entering the growth period, the shadow pom-pom will have a preliminary combat ability, and then every few years, an existing ability will evolve, or a new ability will appear.

According to the article, once it has been cultivated for more than 50 years, after the shadow pom-pom enters the mature stage, it no longer needs to look around for shadows to feed it, because at that time it already has the ability to prey on its own, and even if you want to stop it from growing, you can't stop it.

It was also from this time that the person behind the scenes realized that he had lost control of the shadow pom-pom, and from then on began the long confrontation phase with the shadow god......

Of course, this is not a problem for Mu You, and he originally did not plan to feed the shadow pompom for a long time.

After it eats the hundreds of shadows that it devoured before, Mu You will stop feeding it, and will not let it grow to the stage where it can forage on its own.

What's more, Mu You also has a perfect shadow ghost by his side who can completely restrain the shadow pom-pom. As the host of the Shadow Pom-pom himself, coupled with the box shadow ghost, and the existence of sleep, it can be said that the people behind the scenes have pursued the conditions of controlling the Shadow God all their lives, and they have gathered around him, even if the Shadow Pom-pom really grows, there is no problem that it cannot be suppressed.

Mu You continued to flip back.

It wasn't until the last hundred pages that the journal finally began to contain more captions that looked like the tone of a diary.

"Over the past year, whenever the shadow god fell into a deep sleep, I was occasionally able to connect to its perspective, and the shadow god would recall some scenes in his dreams that he had experienced, and it was through these images that I learned a lot about the 'Protoss'......"

"The 'Protoss' is a complete and highly developed civilization, and each 'God' is as tall as a giant, so they also call themselves the 'Giant Race'...... Of course, not all giants have 'divine power', similar to the structure of ordinary races, the vast majority of people in the Protoss are actually just ordinary giant humanoid creatures, and the remaining few giants with 'divine power' have infinitely raised the upper limit of this race, using various divine powers, they can do many things that ordinary people can't imagine, which also makes the Protoss look like a god high above ordinary beings......"

“…… I was immersed in using the perspective of the Shadow God to tour the world of the gods, but soon, I discovered a truth that made me desperate and terrifying...... Originally, the Star Spirit Realm was controlled and protected by the Protoss, all races had their own self-confident gods, everything was in order, all the races were prosperous, all things were peaceful, and there were few disputes...... But since one day tens of thousands of years ago, the gods suddenly disappeared, and the entire god race seems to have suffered some kind of catastrophe, and no god has ever appeared alive since then......"

“…… The shadow god is the last living god, or rather, the body of the shadow god has also died in the catastrophe, and it is only because of the particularity of the shadow god that he survived the crisis in some special state of suspended animation by relying on the shadow, escaped to the star spirit realm in the form of a shadow pom-pom, and then waited for a long time to be resurrected in a parasitic way......"

“…… What puzzles me is that the history of the Astral Spirit Realm that I know is pitifully short, and all the records of human writing and language can only be traced back to about 2,000 years ago, and even through those long-standing tombs and the bones of immortals, their maximum existence time is only more than 3,800 years...... So in the tens of thousands of years since the extinction of the gods and the birth of the existing civilization, has the astral spirit realm always been a blank? ”

Several pages in a row, one after another, describe some extremely informative content.

Mu You frowned, the Protoss was actually exterminated?

From the strength of the shadow god, you can imagine what a terrifying race the complete god race is, and such a race has actually been destroyed, so what kind of existence should be there to destroy them?

Mu You hurriedly continued to rummage back, and in the next log, there would be some additional content from time to time, but there were only a few words, describing one or several dream pictures, which looked quite confusing, and two words were mentioned many times: the Great Disaster and the Small Disaster.

Connecting these fragmented information, it seems that every 4,000 years or so, there will be a 'cataclysm' in the astral spirit realm, and all living things will be wiped out in the cataclysm, and the scope of the astral spirit realm will become smaller after the cataclysm.

And what is the 'Little Calamity', but there is no specific description, only mentioning 'related to fools'.

These chaotic descriptions go on for dozens of pages, suggesting that the people behind the journal were in a state of distress during this period.

It wasn't until the last page that Mu You finally saw a longer and logically complete additional text.

"We live in a world where the gods are dead, no gods to control us, no gods to take care of, let us fend for ourselves, every four thousand years, the astral spirit realm will usher in a cataclysm, the cataclysm will destroy everything, cleanse everything, and now, until the next cataclysm, there are only more than a hundred years left...... One hundred years from now, the world will come to an end...... I must control the power of the Shadow God as soon as possible to escape the disaster......"

"Recently, however, the Shadow God's dreams have become more and more unstable, and I know that in the near future, it will awaken and its power will completely overwhelm my master, and thus consume me...... Before I can do that, I'll need to find traces of Number 14, or create a new perfect artifact, so I can suppress it......"

"If anyone finds this journal, it means that I have failed, and it is likely that I have been devoured by the Shadow God......"

"Well, remember this place: Mount Genesis."

"In a hundred years, the world will come to an end, everything will be destroyed, and the Genesis Mountain is the only place that can change everything."

"To be honest, I don't know what this place is, but based on what I've learned so far, the possibilities are endless as long as you find this place......"

The text stopped abruptly here, Mu You subconsciously flipped back again, and the last half of the page was blank.

But when he turned it over, a piece of paper fell out of the cover of the book and fell to the ground.

Mu You picked it up and saw that there was a hand-drawn pattern on the paper, depicting a mountain, hidden in the misty clouds, and it was not real, and he could barely make out an outline.

"This is Genesis Mountain?"

Mu You was dumbfounded. He also thought that the other party had left a map or something in the end, but it turned out to be just a stick figure, and this drawing was too abstract, how could he find it?

Shaking his head, Mu You looked back at the log on the previous page.

The various bits and pieces of information in this journal actually say three things in a nutshell.

First, the Protoss was wiped out for some reason a long time ago.

Second, there will be a cataclysm in the astral spirit realm every four thousand years, and the cataclysm will destroy everything, and now there are only more than a hundred years left before the next cataclysm.

Thirdly, there is an important location called 'Genesis Mountain', and it seems that if you find this place, you will have a chance to stop the catastrophe from happening.

In addition, there is actually a hidden hint in the message left by the other party: those who control the power of the gods can avoid the catastrophe, and the other party is in a hurry to control the shadow god, which is precisely for this.

"Boom ......"

When Mu You was pondering, there was a violent tremor on the ground under his feet.

The ground shook in the entire underground factory, countless gravel and dust fell from above, Mu You looked up and saw that a large number of cracks had appeared on the ceiling, and they were all expanding rapidly.

"It's going to collapse here!" Mu lobbied.

"Trap?" Lin Xue subconsciously looked at the books in Mu You's hand, as soon as they took out the books, this kind of change occurred, it was hard not to think that it was the back-up trick prepared for them by the person behind the scenes.

"That's not ......"

Mu You shook his head: "It's impossible for a landslide of this magnitude to kill us, not to mention that he doesn't have time to arrange...... It should have been arranged in advance, as long as the log book he hid was taken away, the place would automatically collapse, burying all the sins of the Undead Society. ”

The tremors were still intensifying, and the density of rockfall overhead was rapidly increasing.

The two of them didn't have time to talk nonsense, and hurriedly set up a teleportation array on the ground and teleported back to Dawn City.

"Lord!"

Dawn was silent at this time, except for the Shadow Wolves patrolling near the gates of the Lord's Castle with bows and arrows.

"No outsiders came up, did they?" Mu You asked her.

After the octopus king was killed and all the players were wiped out, the current city of Dawn was completely empty, and it was the weakest time, and it would be very troublesome if someone came to attack at this time.

"Nope."

The Shadow Wolf shook his head. The two of them had been away for less than two hours, and even if there were really people nearby who coveted Dawn City, it was impossible to react so quickly.

However, in order to be safe, Mu You immediately operated and released two million people among the players who applied to enter the city, filling the gap in the number of residents and providing some defensive strength for Dawn City.

A large number of players suddenly appeared in Dawn City, running around the city, and immediately brought a lot of life to the dead Dawn City.

Many enthusiastic players also teleported to the gate of the City Lord's Fort, trying to interact with Mu You, and the gate of the City Lord's Fort instantly turned into a vegetable market, and all kinds of chattering inquiries were endless, making him one head and two big.

After sending these players away, Mu You and Lin Xue didn't stay long, they came through the spatial rift, and the crack was time-limited, it would only open for about seven hours, and now four hours have passed.

If they don't go back before the crack is closed, they will be left in the Star Spirit Realm, and those who come through the crack will not be deducted from their life here, but after that they will be counted as people from the Star Spirit Realm, and it will be difficult to go back, if they go back through the door, they will be deducted from their life on the other side of the earth.

The only way is to wait for half a year to pass, and the spatial rift will open again, so that they can return to Earth without sequelae.

And this is impossible, their home and roots are on the earth, and it is impossible to leave for half a year.

However, it is possible to take advantage of this opportunity to transfer the two realms at will to transfer some creatures from the other side of the earth.

Like two-headed dragons and baby spiders.

These two are pets that need to fight often to upgrade, although there is the light of evolution in staying on the earth, but for high-growth pets like them, it is difficult to evolve again, and it is slow to improve by staying on the earth, it is better to transfer to the star spirit realm, and you can usually follow him to fight monsters and upgrade, and Xiaoya's evolution light can also be used in the game.

The two quickly returned to the rift, and after transferring the pets, they returned to Tokyo.

Before leaving, Mu You sealed the dry well that hid the cracks in the space, and the stone slab above it was re-covered, this thing will not be opened again until half a year later, and after the undead will be destroyed, knowing that this place exists, there should be only the two of them left, and he doesn't plan to say it for the time being, maybe he can still use it in the future.

Back in Tokyo, it's almost early in the morning.

Lin Xue took the little girl to teleport back to China first, and Mu You had to go back to find the people of the exchange group.

took out the satellite phone from the space, turned it on, and sure enough, there were a lot of missed messages, all from the Blood Emperor and others.

He had been absent for four or five hours, and he had not participated in last night's operation at all, and at this moment a group of people were busy looking for him.

Mu You hurriedly sent them a message, explaining the situation last night, his statement was that after the riot last night, he found a relatively weak humanoid ghost in Aoki District, because the mobile phone signal was blocked, he could only track it alone, and finally spent some effort to eliminate the other party.

The humanoid ghost he was referring to was naturally the little girl from last night, and the little girl killed someone before leaving, and when he checked it, he knew that there was a problem, which could completely corroborate his words.

On the whole, they won a great victory in this mission, and of course the Blood Emperor and Director Wang did not pursue anything after hearing this, but only reprimanded him a few words, asking him not to act alone next time, and then revealed the matter.

Then Mu You rushed back to the guest house to meet everyone, and then there were some handover matters with the Japanese side.

Here in Tokyo, last night's shadow ghost outbreak caused a lot of damage, but most of it was economic, and there were not too many casualties because of the advance warning in terms of personnel.

Those ordinary shadow ghosts have a single mode of action, and after the initial chaos, the folk masters of the Japanese side are also forced to participate in the war one after another, which gradually suppresses the shadow ghosts one by one.

However, even so, this incident still caused quite a stir in Japan, and as the truth gradually broke out on the Internet after the incident, public opinion was in an uproar, and various duties and abuses continued to erupt, making a group of people in the Defense Agency busy......

They couldn't take care of Mu You in this regard, and after hurriedly handing over the formalities, the exchange group stepped on the plane back to China.
