This Text Adventure Game is definitely poisonous-Chapter 984 - 463: Return

"You have obtained the God of Order’s skin, automatically gaining 1 point of Divine Power."

"Fusion of the Bone of the Demon God in progress, estimated to end in twenty-three minutes..."

In the pitch-black space, Mu You withdrew his hands from the God’s Corpse before him and looked down at the surging blue energy across his body.

After the fusion with the Divine Blood, inheriting the Divine Skin had been much simpler, requiring only his body to come into contact with the energy of the God’s Corpse.

At this moment, he had effectively inherited the Divine Skin, but the God’s Corpse was still perfectly intact before him.

Because the manifestation of the Divine Skin was strictly a process of energy summoning, that is, summoning the god’s power into oneself, rather than directly summoning the god’s remains to the surface of the body.

As for how much energy could be summoned, it depended on how much energy his body could withstand, and having just fused with the Bone of the Demon God, his physical strength had greatly increased, allowing him to manifest much more Divine Power than with his initial skin.

Besides, the fusion with the Divine Bone had also triggered a qualitative change in his attributes!

The Bone of the Demon God had not completely fused yet, but by now, his free Attribute Points had already surged by as much as 91 points!

There was also an increase of 93 points in physical defense, and 11% ’against Magic Power’, that is, resistance to magical abnormal statuses.

Based on the current growth trend, Mu You guessed that by the time the Divine Bone completely fused, the final increase in Attribute Points should be around 95 points.

This meant that with each piece of Divine Bone fused, he could gain nearly 100 Attribute Points as a reward! This was much more generous than the modest rewards from leveling up.

Of course, the specific increase values should be related to the quality of the Divine Bone. The reason Mu You could gain such a high increase this time was mainly because the Bone of the Demon God was of high quality, having been referred to by the Lamp God himself as belonging to the highest class of Divine Bones.

If ordinary Divine Bones of a lower star level were used, then these increment numbers might drastically reduce, even halving is possible.

For now, Mu You wasn’t sure how many Divine Bones a person could ultimately fuse, but there was definitely a limit, so the quality of each Divine Bone fused became even more crucial. To maximize final attributes, each fusion must use the best Divine Bones available.

"Not bad, the inheritance went smoothly." The Bard, sensing the overflowing Divine Power from Mu You’s body, nodded with satisfaction, then reminded him, "However, keep in mind that your Divine Skin’s Divine Power is still interconnected with Sky City’s operation. When you summon the Divine Skin, Sky City will automatically enter a suspended state, unable to move. Its various non-essential buildings will also temporarily shut down, maintaining only basic functions such as levitation. So before you enter battle with the Divine Skin, remember to keep Sky City in a safe place."

"Okay."

Mu You nodded, not too surprised. In simple terms, the God’s Corpse, now his skin, also served as the power source for Sky City.

Of course, he could choose to take away the God’s Corpse and use it exclusively for himself, but without its power source, Sky City would then be rendered useless.

"Puff puff..."

While they conversed, the Shadow Fur Ball hopped from the darkness into Mu You’s hands, looking at him with a face full of grievance.

When Mu You had opened his primary faith to obtain the Divine Skin, he had again tossed it out first. Being abandoned twice in a row made the little guy feel very insecure.

Mu You looked at the black fur ball in his hands. After a period of daily consumption of shadows, the Shadow Fur Ball’s size had noticeably increased, and its level had reached LV3.

However, none of its several upgrades introduced new abilities but strengthened the existing ones instead.

"Go in."

Mu You rubbed the Shadow Fur Ball’s head and tossed it back into the shadow.

Now that the primary faith had been firmly established, it was natural to place the Shadow God in the position of secondary belief, as secondary beliefs could be changed at any time.

As for what to do once a real secondary belief was established, Mu You had already thought ahead after his first fusion with the Divine Bone: the little guy was not a genuine god but merely a shadow, and accommodating it didn’t require the luxury of a complete secondary belief.

Its rejection by the Divine Skin was essentially due to Divinity Repulsion—thus, all he needed was to find the Shadow God’s corpse and fuse the Shadow God’s Divine Bone into it, making the Shadow God’s authority a part of the Divine Skin, naturally eliminating any rejection issues.

After the fusion was completed, Mu You, carrying the Divine Lamp, left the power room and returned to the Underground City, then teleported back up to Sky City.

Near the entrance of the Underground City, Fuya, dressed in Magic Academy attire, was anxiously pacing back and forth.

Until suddenly, a burst of light and shadow flickered in the open space ahead, and Mu You’s figure quietly appeared.

Fuya paused, then recognizing it was Mu You, she burst with joy and hurried towards him, "You’re finally out! I have to tell you, things aren’t good, over at the Forgotten Land, something’s happening, something’s..."

"Hmm, I know."

Fuya was still organizing her words when Mu You simply nodded.

"Let’s go, we’ll head back now and discuss on the way."

With that, Mu You headed towards the City Lord’s Castle, placed his fingers by his mouth, and whistled.

"Roar!"

Accompanied by a deep dragon chant, the Bone Dragon, which had been perched like a sculpture on the spire of City Lord’s Castle for many days, suddenly came to life, wriggling its body free from the castle and flying rapidly towards the direction of the Underground City, instantly drawing the attention of countless onlookers below.
