Chapter 420: Server No. 2
[You faced the Demon King without fear, held the Lunar Eclipse Scepter, and launched the 'Tengu Moon Eclipse'. 】
[With a distant whining sound, in the sky where the bright moon hangs, an illusory beast figure stepped on the dark clouds and suddenly came, opened its huge mouth, and gnawed on the full moon. 】
[The clouds surged in the sky, the thunder rolled, the wind howled on the ground, and the earth, which was originally illuminated by the moonlight, quickly dimmed. 】
[You look up and see that the full moon is being eaten by the tengu at a speed visible to the naked eye, which makes you, who believe in the moon god, disappear all kinds of moon phase increases all over your body, and become extremely weak. 】
[The demon king roared, and seemed to feel the oppression from the strange beast in the sky, and rushed towards Ling anxiously. ...... you choose]
[You choose to run away!] 】
[You launched the Wind God Step, your speed increased greatly, and you turned around and began to flee from the Demon King.] 】
You have sinned against sloth! Your whole body is rapidly decreasing, but with the protection of the Anemo Boots, your speed has not diminished in the slightest. 】
[Finding that you avoided and did not fight, the demon king became even more angry and chased after you at full speed.] 】
[Your speed is slightly inferior to the Demon King, and between chasing and escaping, the distance between you and the Demon King is gradually shortening......]
Mu You looked helpless. The Anemo Boots can lock the speed without dropping, but the lock speed depends on Mu You's own Aeolus level.
Mu You had already experimented in a previous attempt, if he raised the level of Fengshen and Fengshenbu to 10 stars, and then 'sent' the speed-limiting equipment to the Demon King, he could guarantee that he would run with the Demon King the whole time.
It's a pity that although his customs clearance process this time has been relatively extreme, it has not reached the point of complete perfection after all, resulting in insufficient faith, and the level and magic of the wind god are a little weaker, and he can still be caught up by the demon king at this moment.
Fortunately, the 'probability invalidation' provided by this cursed doll still has a chance to dodge the attack even if he is caught up by the Demon King.
[The Demon King has finally caught up with you!] The Demon King raised his hand and unleashed the magic 'Demon King's Claw' on you......]
[The cursed doll is excited, trying to curse the demon king, the current effective probability: 11.3%.] 】
[Curse failed!] You were slapped by the Demon King's claws, and the terrifying power caused your liver and gallbladder to collapse, and your internal organs were displaced, and you were seriously injured in an instant! Current Health: 55027/83027]
[The difference between your life percentage and the Demon King is more than 30%, you have committed the sin of jealousy!] The 'fire of jealousy' is burning in your heart, and your life is going on......]
"Backtrack!"
This thing can shoot out nearly a third of his life with a single claw, which is outrageous!
Mu You hurriedly came back according to the watch.
The effective probability of the curse doll depends on the difference between the two parties' attributes, and the current probability is as high as 11%, which is not too difficult to trigger.
What Mu You is really worried about is, what should I do later? Because the sin of sloth continues to burn his attributes, this probability is bound to get lower and lower in the future, and may eventually decrease to a point where it is enough to make people bald.
There's no way, so I can only stick to it for now......
[Curse Success!] The cursed doll appeared and climbed behind the demon king, with a hideous wild laugh, turned into a troublemaker, and went wild on the demon king. In its way, the Demon King's attack missed, and a claw slammed into the ground beside you. 】
[You were unharmed and took the opportunity to distance yourself!] 】
……
"Okay, that's it!"
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he could maintain this rhythm, it would be over after ten minutes.
Mu You glanced at the stopwatch on the table next to him. In the stopwatch is a six-hundred-second countdown, which was pressed punctually at the moment of activating the lunar eclipse, and now there are 583 seconds left.
In other words, the current demon king can catch up with him about once every fifteen seconds.
However, this number can be magnified a little more as the Demon King steals the slowdown props he has carefully prepared.
Mu You stared intently at the text.
The countdown quickly came to 540 seconds, and after a minute of cooldown, the Demon King really launched 'Greed' again.
Mu You decisively rolled the deceleration gear over.
[The Demon King has committed the sin of greed, and your 'Heavy Armor' has been forcibly seized by the Demon King. 】
[The heavy carapace slows down the Demon King's speed, but it's still slowly chasing you ......]
……
Mu You made a special count this time, and now the time for the demon king to catch up with him has been extended to nearly nineteen seconds, which is a significant increase, and there are other deceleration props after that, and it will become more and more difficult for the demon king to chase him after that!
【…… The Demon King found that his speed had slowed down, and he suddenly turned into a beautiful young girl, casting a seductive look at you, which made your heart flutter and your steps were vain. You have committed the sin of lust, and all your attributes have been reduced......]
The demon king is alive again, but it doesn't matter, there are Fengshen boots, and whether the attribute drops or not will not affect his speed.
The description of the Anemo Boots is 'When the speed drops for the first time in combat, lock on to the current speed.' There is no mention of the effective time in the note, so it should be possible to maintain the whole session.
[Curse Success!] The Cursed Doll appears...... With it in its way, the Demon King's attack was once again ineffective. 】
[You are unscathed, and once again take the opportunity to distance yourself! ] 】
……
[The Demon King has committed the sin of greed, and your 'Waddling Sheep's Staff' has been forcibly seized by the Demon King. The center of gravity of the sheep's head staff sways from side to side, making it difficult for the demon king to maintain balance, and his speed decreases again......]
……
The next battle began to proceed according to Mu You's expected process, he kite the demon king throughout the whole process, constantly circling around the small area at the top of the tower, while using his pocket watch to dodge the occasional attack of the demon king, and then every minute, 'send' it a negative item.
The only thing that worries Mu You is that his attributes have been reduced to the point where he can't bear to look at them directly, under the continuous weakening of the sin of laziness and lust.
The direct impact of the reduction of attributes is that the trigger probability of the curse doll continues to decrease, and it becomes more and more difficult for Mu You to dodge the Demon King's attacks.
【…… You look at the sky between escapes and witness the last rays of the moonlight being engulfed by the tengu, and the entire full moon is completely engulfed in black shadows, leaving only a dark red ring, and the whole land becomes pitch black. The moonlight is completely gone, and your weakness has reached the extreme......]
Mu You swept his eyes, the countdown finally passed five minutes, the lunar eclipse was halfway through, the moon was completely dark, and the next thing was the process of Tengu spitting out the moon.
Mu You continued to play steadily, running all over the field with the Demon King.
[The Demon King has caught up with you again!] The Demon King raised his hand and attacked you......]
[The cursed doll is excited...... Current probability: 0.1%. 】
[Curse Success!] The Demon King's attack fails, and you take the opportunity to distance yourself ......]
……
Dodged the attack again, but Mu You's face was a little solemn, because of the attack just now, he had to go back more than a thousand times before it was finally triggered.
The key is that this is just the beginning, as time goes on, this probability will definitely continue to decline, and at this rate, how low the probability will be in the future, he can't imagine.
……
It turns out that Mu You's guess was right.
In the next two minutes, in the face of the Demon King's five successive attacks, Mu You almost vomited according to his watch.
Especially in the last two times, the probability of triggering the cursed doll has been reduced to less than 0.01%, which means that he needs to rewind more than 10,000 times on average before he succeeds once!
And what makes him even more desperate is that it has only been seven minutes now, and his attributes will continue to decline, and the next three minutes will basically be all this kind of refined mode, and the number of backtracks will continue to increase!
Mu You's scalp was already a little numb when he thought about it.
【…… The demon king failed to attack again, yelled in annoyance, and reached out to grab the little ghost who was laughing wildly on the back of his neck, but unfortunately the curse doll flexibly avoided the capture of the demon king and quickly retracted into the prop. 】
[At this moment, the bright moon in the sky is slowly being spit out by the tengu, and the earth is brightening again, and the demon king seems to have finally realized the crisis! 】
[The Demon King looked at you who were running frantically in front of him, but this time he didn't choose to continue chasing you, but suddenly raised the Demon King's claws and grabbed at his heart! 】
[In the gushing of green blood, the Demon King's life began to decrease rapidly......]
"Huh?"
Mu You was stunned.
He has a headache, how to spend the next three minutes, why did the demon king suddenly stop chasing, and began to self-harm?
【…… The Demon King completely ignored you, and stood still, the Demon King's claws pierced into his heart again and again, and his health slipped down at a speed visible to the naked eye......]
What the hell, the Demon King gave up on himself?
Mu You frowned, this strange scene made him always feel that he had ignored something.
Until half a minute later......
[The Demon King's HP has dropped below 70%!] 】
[The difference between the percentage of the demon king and your life is greater than 30%, the demon king has committed the crime of jealousy, the fire of the demon king's jealousy ignites in your heart, burns violently, and your life begins to slide rapidly! 】
"Wait......"
Mu You's eyes suddenly widened, and he finally understood what the Demon King wanted to do!
The sin of jealousy, this ability that has been ignored by Mu You before, the effect is that as long as the difference in the percentage of life between the two sides is 30%, whether the demon king is more than him or he is more than the demon king, the result is that he loses blood until the life gap returns to less than 30% again!
If it's just that, forget it, if the demon king wants to use this method to make him burn blood, he first has to lose his own blood and take the initiative to widen the blood gap to 30%, so it is impossible to kill Mu You with this method, because even if the demon king mutilates himself to only 0.1% of his life, Mu You's life bar will remain at 30% and will not fall down again.
The problem is that the Demon King can quickly regenerate health through the 'Sin of Gluttony', and at the same time, under the suppression of the Sin of Gluttony, all the enemies of the Demon King cannot recover their health by any means!
This means that Mu You's health bar in this battle is a little less and can never recover, but the demon king can pull him into the water and return to full blood by himself through gluttony.
And at this time, since the difference between the lives of the two sides is greater than 30% again, the sin of jealousy will take effect again, and Mu You's life will continue to be burned until he is completely burned to death by the fire of jealousy!
"Nima, this is too laid!"
When he came back to his senses, Mu You suddenly scolded secretly.
It is only now that he realizes that there is such a loophole hidden in his seemingly unsolvable 'lunar eclipse' play!
But what surprised him even more was - shouldn't this demon king be a virtual character simulated by the Tower of the Brave? Such a virtual character still knows how to judge risks and card bugs?
Just now, the Demon King obviously realized that Mu You had the ability to make the curse doll forcibly trigger, and it was useless to continue to chase and kill, so he urgently changed his tactics.
[The Demon King watched your life finally begin to slide, and showed a cruel smile, and the devil's claws stabbed at himself even harder......]
[The Demon King's life has fallen below 50%, and your life has fallen below 80%......]
[The Demon King's life has fallen below 30%, and your life has fallen below 60%......]
[The Demon King's life has fallen below 10%, and your life has fallen below 40%......]
[The Demon King stopped his self-harming behavior, sneered and glanced at you, and quickly rushed to a dining table in the center of the top of the tower. With the Demon King seated, countless delicacies from the mountains and seas suddenly appeared on the dining table......]
[The Demon King completely ignores you, and begins to feast, and the health is quickly restored......]
……
Sure enough, things began to go according to his predictions.
Mu You can't do anything now, his attributes have been reduced to the point where he is unable to launch any attacks, and he can only watch the Demon King eat and regain blood.
Now the question is, is there enough time for the Demon King to complete his plan?
There were about 100 seconds left in the time, and Mu You quickly estimated it in his heart.
The recovery speed of gluttony on the demon king's side is 1% per second, and it only needs to recover to more than 70%, and it is Mu You's turn to lose blood, and as the difference between the lives of the two sides grows, the more the fire of jealousy will burn, and the faster Mu You's blood will be......
Mu You soon found that the calculation was useless, because he didn't know how fast the subsequent fire of jealousy would burn his life, so he could only wait at the moment.
Soon, sixty seconds passed.
Time came to the last 42 seconds of the countdown, the Demon King's life recovered to more than 70%, and Mu You's life began to burn again.
And the Demon King is still at the table at the moment overeating, continuing to recover his life, wanting to speed up the burning speed of the fire of jealousy as much as possible.
Mu You hurriedly retraced to the stopwatch dozens of times in a row, and at the same time noted the specific value of the blood volume that had slipped during this time, and finally figured out the law of the fire of jealousy burning blood.
And what made him breathe a sigh of relief was that even if the Demon King continued to eat until he recovered full blood, the last little time was not enough to burn his life directly, and in the end, he would probably have about 3% of his life left!
"In this way, it should be over......"
Mu You let out a sigh, now there are only the last thirty seconds left in the countdown, as long as the Demon King doesn't do anything anymore, then ......
"Damn!"
Mu You scolded halfway through his thoughts, because the text suddenly changed again.
[The demon king in gluttony suddenly became agitated again! 】
[The Demon King is eating, and he is also paying attention to your life and the changes of the bright moon in the sky. And as the situation becomes clearer, it seems to finally realize that it will not be able to kill you if it continues to eat, because it will be devoured by the tengu before you! 】
[The Demon King suddenly roared, overturned the table, and then stepped over the food all over the ground, and rushed towards you quickly! ] 】
"Gan!"
The corners of Mu You's eyes jumped, and he hurriedly let the character run away again.
However, the top of the tower is so big, no matter how far he runs, he is only circling with the demon king, and according to the speed of the demon king before, it only takes more than twenty seconds to catch up with him.
In other words, before the end of the lunar eclipse, he will definitely be attacked by the Demon King again!
Thinking of this, Mu You hurriedly clicked on the 'Curse Doll' in the text above, wanting to confirm what the current curse trigger probability is.
Outcome......
[When the cursed doll is excited, the current curse trigger probability: 0.] 】
???
Mu You almost thought that he was wrong, why was it 0%? Can this probability be directly reduced to 0?
But after a little thought, he quickly reacted: it was because he was burned blood!
Life was originally the only relatively intact attribute in Mu You's panel, but now it was burned to the residual blood by the Demon King's operation, which naturally magnified the gap between him and the Demon King again, and finally the quantitative change caused the qualitative change, which led to the probability of the curse directly zeroing......
Thinking of this, Mu You hurriedly went back in time and equipped all the props on his body that could support attributes, wanting to pull the probability back.
It's a pity that there are very few props that directly add attributes, and Mu You rotated all the high-level equipment, and the probability is still 0.
It wasn't until Mu You tried to replace the 'Lucky Dice' with a piece of equipment that the text of the curse doll finally changed.
Lucky Dice must be assembled in the inventory in the Tower of the Brave to take effect, and Mu You rarely wears them because the effect is too weak, and it is far less useful than an artifact or hidden relic.
Unexpectedly, at this moment of near despair, this inconspicuous prop played a role!
[In the excitement of the curse doll, the current curse trigger probability: 0.0001% (bottoming probability)]
Bottoming probability!
In other words, it is not that adding this one die directly magnifies the probability by 0.0001, but because this is already the smallest number that the probability can display!
Mu You suddenly remembered the heart of the Sen Ling, the percentage value displayed by the core of the Sen Ling is also to four decimal places, it seems that this is the rule of the Star Spirit Realm, and all statistical values can only be to the last four decimal places.
However, Mu You was not happy, because, 0.0001%, which is equivalent to one part per million......
A backtrace of 10 seconds, one in a million, equals an average of 2777 hours, 115 days, and nearly 4 months for a trigger! Nearly four months of sleepless press the watch, and there can be no distraction on the way......
Mu You suddenly recalled the fear of being dominated by the door lock of the witch's house!
Moreover, the difficulty of this matter now is twenty times more difficult than opening the witch's door lock in the first place......
Mu You didn't know what to say for a while, and he didn't have time to hesitate, at this time, the attack of the Demon King had arrived.
[The Demon King has caught up with you!] The Demon King raised his hand and attacked you......]
[The cursed doll is excited...... Current probability: 0.0001%. 】
[Curse failed!] The Demon King slapped you to death with one claw on the spot......]
"Backtrack ......"
Mu You sighed, pressed his pocket watch, and began a long journey of backtracking.
His current life is wiped by the demon king and he will die, and there is only a glimmer of hope for the cursed doll here.
However, Mu You didn't really sit in place stupidly, and mechanically pressed the table for four months without sleep, so that his brain would become mush, but changed into vampire skin, turned on the 'god speed', and went to the study to get a bunch of messy books.
Anyway, this time is idle, so it's better to simply use the speed to amplify the time and use it to read or something.
Retrospective every ten seconds, when you are tired, enter the state of 'god speed' to read a book, take a break, and distract yourself.
A speed meeting lasts a full eighteen minutes, and Mu You sets an alarm clock, but he doesn't have to worry about delaying the watch because he is fascinated by reading, and he doesn't have to worry about missing the game result because his brain turns into paste under long-term mechanical action.
After dealing with it like this, the backtracking process has finally become a lot easier to accept.
Moreover, I don't know if it was because of the blessing given by the fairy fairy before, which directly doubled his luck, Mu You's luck this time was quite good, in fact, it was far from being as long as going back to a million times, about 17 or 80,000 times, and the result came out directly.
Mu You closed the book in his hand and looked at the game screen.
[The Demon King has caught up with you!] The Demon King raised his hand and attacked you......]
[Curse Success!] The Demon King hit the devil with one claw, his frustrated eyes were bloodshot, and his muscles were bruised, and you took the opportunity to distance yourself......]
Then the Demon King began to hunt him down again, but the time had come to an end, and the Demon King had no second chance to attack him.
Finally, the countdown on the table has gone to the last second, and it is completely zero!
[The lunar eclipse is over, and above the canopy, the bright full moon exudes a dazzling clear light, illuminating the earth again!] Bask in the moonlight, and as a follower of the moon, you have regained your strength! 】
[A tengu phantom roared and rushed towards it and bit the demon king. 】
[The Demon King let out a miserable howl, his body shattered inch by inch, and he fell straight to the ground. 】
[The Demon King died tragically on the spot, and the 'Curse Doll' and 'Humble Precepts' on his body automatically separated from his body and flew to a certain floor under the Brave Tower, waiting to be discovered by the Brave next time. 】
[Congratulations, you have successfully killed the Demon King and become the first brave to clear the Tower of Braves!] 】
You have acquired the status of 'Fool'. 】
[As the first person to pass through the 'Tower of Fool Server No. 2', you have obtained the status of administrator of the server, and one of your causal threads is automatically connected to the Mountain of Genesis.] 】
……
At the same time, a series of other prompts popped up below, as well as a server-wide prompt announcing that someone had cleared the game.
But Mu You didn't have time to pay attention to the other bits and pieces of tips, and his attention was all focused on the last one.
"Tower of Fools...... Server? ”
Mu You looked at this one with some surprise, so this tower is essentially a 'server'?
What does the 'admin' mean later? And the Mountain of Creation, does it mean the 'Mountain of Creation'?
