Chapter 15 Your delivery owl has taken off
In the middle of the night, the sky outside was already dark, only the street lamps on the side of the road, flickering on and off, providing some faint light sources.
Mu You, with a pale face, a red dress, and a jack-o-lantern, strolled along the deserted streets.
Honestly speaking, his current image is actually a bit scary. If he happens to be seen by a passing security or film police, he will be designated as a criminal and arrested on the spot.
So along the way, Mu You tried to walk on the unmanned path, and finally turned into the park next to the community.
After walking around the park twice with a lamp in hand, Mu You, who was extremely bored, found a bench in the corner and sat down.
Said it was patrolling, but he didn't know exactly what to do.
According to the description of the mission, he only needs to 'leave the house and patrol outside for an hour', and there are no other requirements.
"Should be able to catch fish..."
Mu You looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, he turned off the lantern and took out the phone.
At this time, the time has already passed zero, and the physical strength in the game should be refreshed.
"It doesn't matter, try it first. If playing with your mobile phone is not considered work, then go for a walk for an hour later."
Mu You clicked on the 'Fool' icon on the phone.
The game is online, still in the cabin.
Mu You first tried to manipulate the game character to 'go out'.
Fortunately, the imagined situation of being killed by a werewolf as soon as he went out did not happen, and the werewolf seemed to have left.
However, the werewolf just killed him a few hours ago, so he should still be in the village at this time. If he goes out for a stroll, there is still a chance that he will run into it again.
"It doesn't matter, let's explore the map first!"
Mu You controlled the character to go out, and among the three route options that popped up, he chose the direction to the village entrance.
He plans to go to the scarecrow at the entrance of the village first, and ask for information about werewolves, at least to know himself and his enemy.
【After walking along the path to the west for a long time, you came to the gate of the village again. 】
【In addition to the scarecrow at the entrance of the village, there is also an old friend—the owner of the owl store. It seems that he has moved his log cabin to the village. You can come here to buy goods in the future. 】
【The Scarecrow and the old cat manager both saw you and greeted you one after another. Where are you going to go shopping first? Scarecrow, Owl Shop. 】
The owl store has also moved to the entrance of the village?
Mu You was refreshed, and the change diary he got in the afternoon told him that he needed to buy a dictionary from the owner of the old cat shop to learn foreign languages. He also thought about leaving the village to find a store and it would take a lot of energy, but the store moved in by itself. congratulations!
With two options, Mu You decisively advanced to the owl shop.
【You have entered the owl shop, the old cat store manager is delighted with the arrival of the first customer tonight, and it enthusiastically shows you the three items for sale today. 】
【Reinforced Iron Bone: A low-level defensive spell that makes the bones and skin of the whole body hard as iron after being released. Value: 100-year lifespan. 】
【Vampire Sword: A magic sword made of mercury mixed with vampire flesh and blood, which can cause high damage to blood-sucking creatures. Value: 110-year lifespan. 】
【Very poisonous apple: This is an ordinary apple, but the witch accidentally sprinkled the poison against werewolves on it, turning it into a highly poisonous apple. The smell it emits has a fatal temptation to werewolves. After eating, the life span will be reduced by 5 years, and the life span of werewolves will be reduced by 10 years. Value: 1 year lifespan. 】
"oh?"
Mu You raised his eyebrows, and he found that the three items put on the owl store every day seemed to be a spell, plus two props.
And since he got three spells from the old hunter before, he knew that spells can be used for nothing by going back in time.
It's a pity that the spells sold in this store have a lifespan of at least 100 years. If he wants to prostitute for free, he must first gather at least 100 lifespans, and now he can only look at it dry-eyed.
"Steel and iron bones, vampire sword... Well, if you can't afford it, just skip it."
Mu You looked directly at the last product, the witch's poisoned apple.
This seems to be a prop that harms others and does not benefit oneself. It is specially used to deceive people. Normally, Mu You might not even look at it, but he was killed by a werewolf just last night...
Since it is confirmed that there are werewolves in the village, this apple can be bought as a deterrent. If we encounter werewolves in the future, at least there will be a way to resist.
"It's just a little lifespan, and it's not expensive, buy it!"
【You bought a highly poisonous apple, the lifespan is -1, and the remaining lifespan is 53 years. 】
After getting a new item, Mu You clicked on the text to take it out to have a look, and then put it back decisively.
Hey guy, how long have you kept this rotten apple?
It's been at least half a year for this appalling smell!
Absolutely, even if this thing is not poisoned, its power is comparable to biochemical weapons.
I don’t know that werewolves are so tempted by this kind of thing...
Mu You hurriedly took a few breaths of fresh air to the side, and then regained his composure, and watched the game again.
After buying the products, Mu You didn't leave in a hurry, but tried to click on the text of "Old Cat Shopkeeper".
The store owner is also an NPC, so it should be possible to interact...
Sure enough, as soon as you click on the text, a line of prompts will pop up immediately below.
[The owner of the old cat store seems to have seen that you have other needs. You can write the products you need in the input box. After paying the deposit, it can help you purchase goods from other stores, and then send owls to deliver the goods to you superior. 】
"Can you still shop online?"
Mu You was dumbfounded, this one-click delivery, the professional owl courier delivered the goods, much better than JD's service attitude!
The input box pops up, and Mu You writes 'Protoss Dictionary' in it, and clicks send.
【Protoss Dictionary: A book that contains all the characters and symbols of the Astral world, which can automatically translate Protoss into the language the reader needs. Value: 5-year life, reservation price: 6-year life. (An additional 20% shipping fee is required for pre-ordered goods)]
【Do you want to consume 6 years of life and order a book of Protoss Dictionary? 】
"Booking!"
Mu You directly clicked OK.
Ordering will consume a little more lifespan, but he has enough lifespan now, so he doesn't care about these two points of consumption, time is the most important thing.
Not only for translating that diary, Mu You has a feeling that as the exploration of the astral world continues to deepen in the future, translation will definitely be used in more and more places.
Language is something that must be learned sooner or later. The earlier you buy this dictionary, the earlier it will play its value.
【You ordered the ‘Protoss Dictionary’, lifespan -6, remaining lifespan is 47 years. 】
【Your delivery owl has already taken off and is expected to be delivered within 24 hours, please pay attention to check. 】
"24 hours delivery, this speed is quite good."
Mu You nodded in satisfaction, chose to 'leave the store', then turned around and approached the scarecrow again.
