Chapter 549: The Blind Man Touches the Elephant

[You don't hesitate to turn around and run away......]

Next, Mu You began to lead the giant in the direction of the lake, and at the same time notified the others in the group to prepare for action.

【…… The giant is red all over and approaches you at lightning speed, and you hurriedly turn back to defend yourself against the enemy, but you are knocked out by the tremendous force, and your life plummets......]

[Sins of Wrath triggers, and you immediately inflict the same damage on the giant, slightly delaying its attack......]

[Under the influence of the Vampire talent, your true health slowly recovers at a rate of 1 point per second + 0.5% of your maximum health......]

With the vampire's ability to regenerate blood this time, it is much easier to entangle with this giant, even fleeing with defense, and by the time the other party catches up with him and strikes a second blow, often the damage from the last time has been fully recovered.

After chasing and escaping all the way for about half an hour, Mu You finally lured the giant to the beach again.

[The wind rises sharply ahead, and you appear in front of a stormy sea. ...... you choose]

[You activate 'existence', and your sense of existence becomes extremely thin. 】

You plunged headlong into the icy waters. 】

[The giant behind him came in an instant, but suddenly stopped before approaching the sea......]

[The giant looked at the rolling waves in front of him, beating his chest angrily, but he didn't dare to cross the thunder pool after all, and after glaring at the water with resentment, he could only turn around helplessly......]

Everything seems to be a copy of the last time, Mu You played the giant twice in the same place, the difference is that this time it is not so easy for the other party to leave.

【…… The giant cursed and turned back, but at that moment, the water suddenly swelled, and a low roar full of anger sounded from the depths of the water. 】

[When you look back, you see a huge shadow passing by you like lightning, rushing out of the water, and swooping down on the giant on the shore. 】

[Through the surging river, you can see clearly that it is an octopus as big as a mountain, with tentacles full of suckers, sharp mouthparts, and a pair of copper-colored eyes flashing with cold-blooded light. 】

[The giant was caught off guard and was instantly pounced on by the octopus, and hurriedly struggled to stand up, but the tentacles of the octopus monster had already tied it tightly......]

【…… The giant's hands were sucked by the suction cups and could not break free...... The giant struggled with all his might, but the tentacles of the octopus monster became tighter and tighter, and in an instant, the giant's body was covered with scars, and the blood flowed like ......]

【…… The octopus opened its jaws and bit down on the giant's head. The giant ducked sideways while kicking the monster in the abdomen with his foot. 】

[This kick caused the octopus monster to temporarily release its tentacles, and the giant took the opportunity to break free and retreat backwards......]

[However, the octopus monster did not give up, and the tentacles moved in unison, and chased after the past with amazing dexterity......]

[The two giant beasts disappeared into the mist one after the other......]

"I'll go, there's something like this hidden under the water!"

At the same time as the octopus appeared, Bluebeard let out a row of stunned expressions in the group of city lords.

At this moment, the eleven city lords in the city lord group, except for the two city lords of Starlight and Dark Night, the other nine people were all on the scene, and like Mu You, they saw the scene of the octopus monster coming out of the water through the game.

This octopus is much larger than the giant, and the nine-star giant does not have the slightest resistance in front of the octopus.

"Okay, don't be in a daze, don't miss the opportunity, act now!" Mu You typed a reminder.

This time when the octopus left the bottom of the water, it was an excellent opportunity to smuggle to the other side of the black hole to open up the wasteland, and this kind of thing, of course, the more people in the past, the better.

But the personnel are too messy, and it is difficult to manage, and it is easy to go wrong, in case there is too much movement, so it will be bad for the giant to be alert in advance.

Therefore, Mu You only notified a few city lords and asked them to bring their elite members and wait by the lake early.

The others had also been prepared for a long time, and as soon as the octopus appeared at this moment, they were amazed and amazed, and they all immediately issued orders in their respective groups.

For a time, nearly 1,000 players jumped into the water like dumplings.

Mu You also controlled the character to dive for the first time.

[The underwater light is thin and cold, and only the glowing aquatic plants along the shore provide some light to the dark underwater......]

[You sneak down, and several octopuses several meters long suddenly appear around you, swim around you several times, and then suddenly attack you......]

Mu You's current character is still wearing the molt of the octopus king, but probably because he attacked the big octopus last time, this time the octopus skin didn't work, and these little octopuses directly regarded him as an enemy.

[You summoned the skin of the gods, resisted a round of octopus attacks, and then broke through the more and more octopuses around you, and accelerated down to swim ......]

[You activated 'Existence', your sense of presence became extremely thin, and the octopuses chasing behind suddenly lost your trace......]

[You took the opportunity to dive and temporarily escaped the ...... of the pursuers]

Mu You has a blood law to protect himself, so he can escape so easily, but the others are not so lucky.

There are thousands of small octopuses under the water, and there are too many of them, and almost everyone of them is entangled by octopuses.

Fortunately, the strength of this little octopus is not strong, and the body shape of several meters is placed in the giant world, which is actually at the level of two to three stars.

The players rely on each other's cooperation, as long as they are not too unlucky, and they are entangled by more than a dozen at the same time, there is always one out of three or two people who can escape.

At this time, Mu You couldn't care about the others, and dived alone.

More than ten minutes later, Mu You was the first to reach the bottom of the lake.

[The rocks at the bottom of the lake are full of grass and trees, and there are many colorful and exotic plants growing ......]

[You can see at a glance the center of the bottom of the lake, the black and dull circular gap, which is the ...... of the 'Pitch Black Vortex']

[You sped down and swam up to the dark vortex.] 】

[Looking down, I saw that the gap below was as black as ink, bottomless, and the surrounding undercurrents were surging, like a giant mouth of a monster that chose people to devour. 】

[Through the dark vortex, you will instantly reach another vortex far away in the sky, and you will be greeted by a new space, but it is also accompanied by unknown risks, do you step into it? 】

"Yes."

Ignoring the risks, you continue to dive and plunge headlong into the whirlpool. 】

[Before your perspective is engulfed in darkness, you faintly hear the familiar roar of an octopus monster sounding again near the water above......]

[Your eyes are completely occupied by darkness......]

[With a strong whirlwind of the sky, when your sense of direction is restored again, you have reached another body of water, and the cold and biting feeling instantly dissipates, replaced by a warm current......]

[Shortly after you appeared, a series of figures swirled out from the dark vortex behind you......]

"Nima, you can be considered alive! That big octopus is too fierce! In the group, the Baron of Hell left a message, and his heart palpitated.

"What happened?" Mu You asked.

"The big octopus just now came back and chased us like crazy, and a slap could kill a whole group, and my gang fled for their lives, and only a few strong ones survived......" Hellboy explained.

"There were also heavy casualties on my side, and only six of the more than eighty people survived, and I knew that I wouldn't have brought them with me in the first place......" Solomon also sighed.

Mu You received Xiaoya's message at this time, and when he opened it, it was a crying expression, even she was poisoned by a big octopus, you can imagine how many people died in the last wave.

"The big octopus has returned, is the giant dead?" Holy Light Nana suddenly asked.

"It's dead, and the big octopus only realized that it was wrong to return after biting the giant to death...... The good thing is that the corpse of the giant remains, and now my people are already condensing the remains of the giant. The Son of Heaven left a message to explain.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, in this way, these people finally did not die in vain, at least the plan to kill people with a knife was successful, and they were lucky to exchange for a complete giant corpse.

"Let's count how many people are left." Mu lobbied.

"I've got seven more here!"

"I'm nine."

"I only have three left......"

……

Everyone reported their team's battle damage.

According to the last statistics, a total of more than 900 people were launched, and only 32 survived, and the survival rate was quite tragic.

"It's still the old rule, they all explore separately, exchange information at any time, and in addition, this time it's mainly to open up the wasteland, try not to take risks." Mu You typed and said.

There are only so many people left in the opportunity to open up the wasteland that I have won so hard, and each of them is very precious, so we must be cautious, try to understand the situation here first, and then talk about anything else.

“OK!”

"Understood."

……

Everyone replied one after another, and then commanded their own personnel to disperse in all directions.

Mu You also manipulated the characters and officially began to explore.

[You dived along the way, and soon surfaced......]

[This warm water is very calm, and you easily swim to the shore and climb ashore. 】

[In front of you, is a green space of fragrant grass, look up, the thin fog in front of you churns from time to time, such as into a fairyland, you see hundreds of meters away, some pavilions, brick walls and tiles hidden in the fog, vaguely recogniz......able]

"Pavilions?"

Mu You was stunned.

"Huh? This place has so much visibility! In the group, someone has already taken the lead in exclaiming.

This is something that others have discovered as well. At the exit of the Tower of the Brave, the visibility in the fog is only a few tens of meters, but here the visibility easily breaks through a few hundred meters!

However, compared to the visibility problem, what everyone cares about more is the scene they see.

"Strange, how do I see a 'building' and it seems to be floating on the sea......"

"Me too, is this a city built in water?"

"Even if it's a city, it should be abandoned, anyway, I haven't been reminded to see the shadow of the giant......"

"I don't know, it looks pretty safe here at the moment, let's take a walk around first......"

……

The crowd exchanged ideas as they continued to explore.

Mu You also took out the fog-breaking mirror, ready to break through the fog first and wait and see.

As soon as you want to use it, a prompt pops up immediately.

[You take out the fog-breaking mirror, only to find that the surface of the lens barrel is stained with some green moss-like substance, which is slippery and sticky, and it is still spreading rapidly......]

[You try to activate the Fogbreaker Mirror...... Activation fails, and the Fogbreaker Mirror is impregnated with a layer of special substance, temporarily unusable. 】

“?”

Mu You frowned, then took out other props and looked at them.

【…… The assembly failed, and the Demon Breaker Hand Cannon was impregnated and clogged with a special substance, making it temporarily unusable......]

【…… The small round shield is impregnated with a special substance and cannot take effect for the time being......]

The results were all the same, all suggesting 'impregnated with a special substance'.

"I can't use props here?" Mu You groaned secretly.

At this time, news of other people also came from the group.

"I'm Gan, why can't I use my props!"

"Me too, all the props are 'rusty'......"

……

Sure enough, he wasn't the only one who encountered this problem.

Mu You didn't waste any more time trying, and now there are not many practical props, and really practical pocket watches don't need to be used in the game.

【You continue to explore the ......】

[You see a familiar green lantern floating on the shore of the water in front of you, exactly the same as the soul-attracting lamp at the exit of the Tower of the Brave!] 】

"Soul Lamp?" Mu You's eyes lit up.

If there is a soul-attracting lamp, it proves that a fool has set foot in this place, and maybe he can find the message left by the ancestors.

[You quickly ran to the front of the green lantern and reached out to touch the green lantern......]

[However, your palm pierced through the lamp and did not touch any physical ......]

"Huh?" Mu You was stunned, what's the situation, fake? Illusion?

Just then, news of other people popped up in the group.

"Holy, what the hell!"

"What's wrong?"

"Suddenly I was reminded that I hit a tree and hit ......"

“…… Do you walk with your eyes closed? ”

"No, I didn't see anything in front of me, but suddenly I hit a tree!"

"Huh? So how do you know it's a tree? ”

"Because after hitting the tree, my character said that he felt the shape of a big tree in front of him, but he couldn't see ......."

"Invisible trees?"

"Seems to be true! I just got a prompt too! ”

"You hit a tree too?"

"No, I've been attacked by something 'invisible'!"

"Everyone, be careful, there are really monsters here, and they are transparent, and I have someone hanging under me......"

……

The repeated discussions quickly made the atmosphere in the group tense.

The new world of opening up the wasteland is the most uncomfortable in this regard, everything in front of you is completely unfamiliar, and when you encounter something that has nothing to refer to, this sense of unknown is the most terrifying.

"The Invisible Tree...... Invisible Monster ......"

Mu You looked at the news of everyone in the group, but couldn't help frowning.

Combined with the green lantern phantom he had just encountered, he had a bold conjecture: Could it be that everything they saw now was fake, and the real scene in front of them was obscured by these illusions, so they couldn't see it?

Mu You immediately manipulated the character and touched it around.

Sure enough, except for the ground, all the objects around him were all 'through the body', and there was no entity at all, but he encountered several 'invisible' stones and trees in a row along the way, and his head was broken and bleeding.

It's as if the vision has been transferred to another place, and what you see is a completely unrelated scene, and the real scene you are in can only be explored by other senses such as hearing, touch, etc.

Mu You immediately informed the others of this discovery.

"It seems to be true, the obstacles you see around you are all fake!"

"I wipe it, even if the props are invalid, the vision is deprived, how can we open up the wasteland, a group of blind people play blind people and touch elephants?" Some people can't help but complain.

"The most important thing is that there are monsters around......"

……

The news announced by Mu You made everyone's already little confidence cast another layer of haze.

"Don't worry, these monsters don't seem to be able to see our ......," the Son of Heaven suddenly left a message.

"Yes." Mu You spoke almost at the same time as him.

In the gap that everyone discussed just now, he had successfully solved an 'invisible' monster by backtracking.

[You have killed 'Poison Gland Conch' (2 Stars), gain Conch Shell Fragment*1, Dream Pink*1......]

In the process of killing this monster, Mu You deliberately backtracked dozens of times, using various methods to probe, and it turned out that this conch really couldn't see him, as long as he made a slight detour, the other party would fight wits and courage in the air all the way.

In other words, all living beings here are equal in terms of vision, and all of them are blind.

"You killed the monster? Did anything special break out? At this time, the Son of Heaven sent a message to ask.

"In addition to the basic materials, there is a thing called 'Sweet Dream Powder', what about you?" Mu You returned. The other party has obviously gone through a similar monster killing test, and now that he asks this, most of them have also exploded special items.

"Mine is called 'Nightmare Powder.'" The Son of Heaven returned.

"Oh?"

Mu You first clicked on the description of 'Dream Powder'.

[Sweet Dream Powder: After taking it, it can make you have a sweet dream the next time you fall asleep. 】

The Son of Heaven also sent a message of 'Nightmare Powder', which was almost the same as the description of the Dream Powder, but the final dream became a nightmare.
