Chapter 487: Nameless Goblin
Mu You's attack was ready, but he didn't expect a voice to suddenly tell him to stop, and the reason he said made him unable to ignore.
Mu You had no choice but to choose 'cancel the attack'.
[You cancel the small fireball spell and teleport backwards, distancing yourself from the two caterpillars.] 】
[After retreating to the safe area, you turned your head, only to see that under a small tree not far away, a fairy girl only the size of a palm, hiding most of her body behind the tree, showing her head and looking at you cautiously. 】
[This goblin has blue hair, green eyes, a white hat on its head, a blue-and-white dress, and a pair of wide butterfly-like wings on its back, with white wings in the center and rippled sky blue edges, and the whole goblin looks like a butterfly hovering in mid-air. 】
[Although it has an eye-catching color, she noticed that the fairy girl's face was stained with a lot of dust and stains, and the originally clean and beautiful wings were also covered with scars and chips, which greatly damaged the beauty. 】
[At this time, the two caterpillars that you threw away in the distance have already roared and squirmed towards you again.] 】
["It's too late, if you don't mind, please use my pollen......" The fairy girl takes a transparent bottle from her body and throws it at you. 】
[You subconsciously catch the mini bottle and take a look, the bottle contains a small half bottle of flower powder, but it emits a more pungent smell, which seems to be some kind of hoodoo. 】
[Fairy Maiden motions for you to sprinkle pollen on herself.] ...... you choose]
[Trust her, this goblin looks like a good person.] 】
[Refuse her, such a pungent thing is not normal at first glance.] 】
Of the two options, Mu You immediately chose 'believe', but he held the pocket watch in his hand before choosing.
[You open the bottle and pour the pollen over you.] 】
[In the pollen scattering, you only feel a smell similar to Chinese medicine enveloping you, bitter and pungent, making you sneeze. 】
[Curse 'Bad Luck' in You: You will be plagued by bad luck for the next few hours, and it is best to be careful with every move.] 】
"Is it really poisonous?"
Mu You raised his eyebrows, instinctively wanting to press the pocket watch.
But then, something new popped up in the text.
[Two caterpillars rushed to your side, but suddenly stopped, and after sniffing around you, the anger in the eyes of the two caterpillars dissipated, no longer treating you as an enemy, bypassing you and squirming in the other direction to leave the ......]
"Toxic, but effective......"
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the fingers holding the pocket watch.
[After confirming that you are out of danger, you walk towards the fairy girl.] 】
[You didn't notice a stumbling block at your feet, you fell gorgeously and a dog gnawed on mud, life -10.] 】
Mu You's eyelids twitched, did this curse come true so quickly?
A mere 10 points of life is not worth going back to, Mu You directly let the character get up and walked in front of the goblin.
["I'm sorry, it's all my bitter dust, I'm a useless goblin. Seeing you wrestling, the fairy girl hurriedly flew to your side, looking at you apologetically, her eyes full of mist. 】
[This fairy girl doesn't look very smart, but after all, she is a local, and you are new to the city, so you may be able to consult her about something.] 】
Three options: [Ask about its name and background], [Ask about Bitter Dust], and [Ask about weirdness].
There is no question of price, Mu You clicked it in turn.
[You ask about the fairy girl's background.] 】
[The fairy girl tells you that she was originally also an upper-class goblin with a name, and her job was to build sacred idols, but because she made a mistake, she accidentally cut off the nose of the idol when carving the idol, which led to the anger of the gods, and was deprived of her name and most of her abilities, and became a low-level goblin, and was assigned to work in the garbage dump, and has been with garbage all day long. 】
[You ask about bitter dust.] 】
[The Garden of Bitterness is a city of flowers, 70% of the area in the city is full of flower fields, collecting pollen from flowers, is a skill that every goblin is born with, but only the middle and upper goblins can pick sweet pollen, and then make it as 'lucky dust', the more advanced the goblin, the more powerful the lucky effect of the dust.
And the bottom goblins, especially the nameless goblins like her who have made mistakes, can only collect bitter pollen, and the dust produced will not only not be blessed with luck, but will also bring bad luck to the user! 】
"Bitter pollen, that's how it came from......"
Mu You understood after reading it, no wonder the pollen in the bitter forest could not find a source, and the pollen was an inferior product produced by the goblins in the bitter garden.
It's just that I don't know how to use this pollen to transfer to the bitter forest, and it is sucked into the body by various creatures in the forest, so killing creatures in the bitter forest will definitely burst pollen.
[You ask what happened to the giant caterpillar just now?] 】
[The girl tells you that those are monsters from the corpses of goblins that once died, and in this bitter garden, there will be such monsters every day, born from the corpses of goblins and small animals, and no one knows how they were formed and why they appeared, in short, all black monsters are called 'weird'. 】
[Strange will wander unconsciously in the Garden of Bitterness every day, they will not attack the native creatures of the Garden of Bitterness, but they will attack outsiders, and once they kill one of them, they will usher in other strange crazy revenge until the intruder is eliminated.] So there are also rumors that the weirdness was created by the gods to protect the security of Sky City. 】
[And if outsiders want to avoid strange attacks, they must borrow dust made by goblins to cover their own smell and disguise themselves as native creatures.] 】
Xenophobia?
Mu You frowned. He knew that the other three elves were more xenophobic, and now it seemed that the goblins were the same, but not the goblins, but the elves were urban xenophobic.
This kind of monster that automatically recognizes and attacks outsiders can indeed make outsiders have nothing to hide here.
However, if he can avoid weird hunting with fairy dust, can he also use the lucky dust he collected before?
Thinking of this, Mu You found lucky dust in the props and prepared to sprinkle some on his body to try.
As a result, the text pops up again.
[The fairy girl looked at you curiously, and carefully asked you the purpose of coming to the Bitter Garden? ...... you choose]
Two options: [Tell the truth] and [Fool the past].
Mu You chose to 'fool the past'.
[Out of caution, you did not tell the other party your purpose truthfully, only that you were a traveler who accidentally wandered here with your friends. 】
[The fairy girl was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly asked if you would like to accept her help. If she wishes, she'll follow you for the rest of the day, providing you with a constant supply of pollen, protecting you from weird attacks, and acting as a guide for you. 】
“?”
Mu You's face was strange.
If the other party offered some deal in exchange for her guide services or something, he could still understand it, and as a result, the goblin actually wanted to serve him for free, not only to provide pollen, but also to be a guide, and willing to follow him...... This made Mu You a little drumming, you must know that the free ones are often the most expensive.
Mu You couldn't figure out the purpose of this goblin for a while.
But after thinking about it, he still agreed, after all, he is really unfamiliar with life now, and he urgently needs a guide.
Moreover, this goblin is a very weak kind of goblin at first glance, with almost no combat effectiveness, and if the other party really wants to harm him, he can counteract at any time.
[You agreed to the fairy girl's proposal.] 】
[When the fairy girl heard this, she showed a relieved smile,]
["Great! Please come with me, go back to my lodgings first, I see that you seem to have some injuries, you can heal from them at my lodgings first. The fairy girl couldn't hide her joy and flew around you, taking the initiative to lead the way. 】
Mu You didn't say much, and the controlling character silently followed behind.
Along the way, you can really encounter 'weird' from time to time, what centipedes, green insects, poisonous ants, all kinds of poisonous insects, all of them are 'black gas', but under the cover of dust, no one has ever come to trouble him again.
However, the weirdness is solved, but the curse can't be shaken off.
[You stepped on a mess of mud and slipped and fell to the ground, life -10 ......]
[You were hit by a coconut fruit falling from a high altitude, and your head was broken and bleeding, and your health value was -100......]
[A bird quacks and flies over your head, leaving a cloud of bird droppings on your shoulder......]
……
Along the way, all kinds of unlucky events emerged one after another, and the loss of life was still secondary, the key was mental pollution, which made Mu You's nerves tense all the way, and he realized for the first time that people can really be unlucky to the point of drinking cold water and stuffing their teeth.
Mu You even wondered for a while, could this fairy girl just deliberately follow him and want to see his unlucky appearance for fun?
However, the fairy girl apologized to him along the way, blaming herself for being too incompetent, causing him to suffer, and promising to work hard to compensate him in the future.
The texts are sincere and sincere, and there is really no sense of lying, and it seems that they are really in extreme guilt and self-blame.
Now Mu You is also in a trance, is the goblin clan really so kind and hospitable?
[You follow the fairy girl and come to a budding room. 】
[In front stands a small wooden house made of flowers and plants, only more than two meters high, a little narrow for you, and the interior furniture is all small and exquisite, but it is clean and tidy, and the room is filled with a fresh fragrance of flowers. 】
[The fairy girl led you into the wooden house and looked at you embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, the humble house is shabby, and there is no good furniture, so I can only grieve you to rest here first." ”】
Mu You was looking at the information fed back by the omniscient crystal at this time, and his face was quite exciting.
[LV15 Flower Bud Room: The abode of the fairy, resting inside, can quickly recover injuries, physical strength and energy. 】
Level 15 houses!
Mu You's eyelids jumped, do you goblins all chat like this? If this is all called a humble house, then what is the real estate system that has just been launched in Dawn City?
Moreover, in their Sky City, all the buildings are only level ten at the highest......
It can only be said that the Garden of Bitterness is worthy of the original Sky City, a house with a low-level goblin can have fifteen levels, then the level ceiling of this Sky City will only be higher, twenty or thirty levels are possible!
In this cultivation, those attributes that he had lost from the previous divine skin were estimated to take less than a day to fully recover!
[The fairy girl beckoned you to sit down on the soft flower bed, while busy rummaging through the cabinets in the room, and after a while, she took out three pine cones from a cabinet and placed them in front of you in a panic.
Then he took out a small and delicate teapot, carefully poured out a small cup of viscous clear liquid, and placed it in front of you, and you immediately felt the fragrance of flowers between your mouth and nose. 】
Mu You probed with the omniscient crystal.
[Gold and Silver Nuts: A special plant of the Bitter Garden, it immediately recovers all stamina after eating, and in the next hour, all recovery and healing effects are doubled, and the free attribute is permanently increased by 1 point, with a maximum of 10 points. 】
[Fairy nectar: The upper elf through the collection of a large amount of sweet pollen, carefully brewed nectar, contains a strong luck power, each upper elf can only produce a small cup of nectar per year, you will be lucky within a day after taking, and the luck value is permanently +1, each person can eat up to three times, after eating three times, you will get a random blessing. 】
Mu You was surprised, he thought that the goblin just took some ordinary food to entertain him, but the result was ...... It's too precious, isn't it?
["Please, please use it! ] Honeysuckle can satisfy hunger and help you recover from injuries faster, and fairy nectar can help you temporarily counteract the effects of curses. "The fairy fairy pretended to be generous to introduce you, but you noticed her secretly swallowing when she looked at the gold and silver fruit. 】
[As if noticing your gaze, the fairy girl waved her hand in a panic: "Just eat it as soon as possible, you're welcome, we have this kind of fruit everywhere here, I can eat it every day, and I'm tired of eating it for a long time...... Mutter! ”】
Before the goblin could finish speaking, her stomach suddenly let out a loud protest. The fairy girl's face turned red suddenly, and she turned into a blue light and flew out of the bud room, disappearing, only the voice came from afar: "You rest first, I'll collect pollen ......"]
Mu You waited for a while to make sure that the goblin had really left, and then sighed.
As for the food at hand, he didn't move, mainly because he hadn't figured out the purpose of this goblin yet.
These two things were obviously the best things in the goblin's house, and they were all brought out to entertain him. Mu You couldn't understand why a strange goblin who met for the first time would be so kind to him for no reason?
Of course, he didn't let his guard down because of this.
Mu You didn't forget that when he first landed, he fell into a coma because he fell on his head, and at that time, someone approached him and gave him something to drink, causing him to fall into a deep sleep.
Also, when he landed, the text suggested that he smelled the 'scent of earth', but when he woke up, he found himself in a stinking junkyard, suggesting that he had probably been moved by someone after he landed.
In addition, he immediately encountered two weird people after waking up, and the fairy girl happened to appear nearby, helping him get out of the weird hand in time, the time was too coincidental, so Mu You had to wonder if this would be a designed drama.
After thinking about it, Mu You summoned three clones in the game.
[No. 1, No. 2, and Linglong appear in front of you in turn. 】
[You take out a whole bottle of lucky dust, divide it into three parts, and give it to the three of them.] 】
[You have given three tasks to each other: No. 1 and No. 2, to carry out exploration missions in two directions, east and west, and explore freely while ensuring your own safety, but be sure to return before the dust is consumed.] 】
[You take out the 'Invisibility Cloak' and give it to Linglong, her mission is: to track down the fairy girl and investigate her true purpose. 】
["This task is good, it suits my appetite! Linglong licked her lips, took the invisibility cloak, gestured OK to you, and gladly accepted the task. 】
