Chapter 48 Soul type, right?
"...Brother, why did Grandma Gu kill Manager Wu?"
In the dark ancestral temple, Xiao Yecao grabbed Li Muyang's hand and asked in a low voice.
At this time, the two of them had already seen the exit of the ancestral temple, and through the gap in the door, they could vaguely see the light coming from outside.
Li Muyang could only choose to accept the old man's strange request.
Because he tried to say no.
After rejecting the old man's request, the mysterious old man on the candlestick would sneer lowly.
Then all the light in the darkness was instantly extinguished, and Li Muyang felt some kind of wet and sticky object squirming in the darkness and touching him.
Then……
[You have died, the game has failed]
After rejecting the old man's request, the game character Jiang Xiaoyu will die suddenly.
So Li Muyang actually had only one choice. After reading the file again and going through the process again, he chose to accept the task of the mysterious old man Gu Granny this time.
Xiao Yecao's question at this time was also Li Muyang's.
He and Xiao Yecao were just little shrimps in the village and had no status.
Let the two of them kill Manager Wu... isn't this a free gift?
If Granny Gu has any objections to those outsider demon cultivators, she can just take action herself. Why does she have to do it to Li Muyang, a little shrimp?
Li Muyang was confused, but he could only do as he was told.
"Grandma Gu must have her own ideas..." Li Muyang whispered perfunctorily.
This old woman is a bit scary.
She may seem amiable, but if she refuses, she will die instantly without giving her a chance to regret.
The other party's cruelty made Li Muyang gain a deep understanding of Heiyun Village again.
I originally thought that between the two forces in the village, Granny Gu's side was at least friendly.
Only now have I confirmed that they are not good things.
One side is evil and cruel, the other side is weird and gloomy, only he and Xiao Weicao are left in the middle.
The later stages of this game feel a bit difficult...
Li Muyang and Xiao Yecao walked to the door of the ancestral temple, but the closed door happened to open, and Granny Gu with a kind smile stood at the door and said.
"Okay, Xiao Yu'er, you can go."
"Remember what you promised the old lady."
The old man in the sun has a kind smile.
The little weeds shrank behind Li Muyang in fear.
There is obviously a Granny Gu in the ancestral temple, but there is another one outside... Are there two Granny Gu?
Li Muyang didn't say anything more and left directly with Xiaoweicao.
After the two left the ancestral temple, a dialog box popped up in front of Li Muyang.
[Heiyun Village is too scary, how about I run away with the little weeds...]
[Can't run, can't escape. We have to find a way to kill Manager Wu. Kill him so that Xiao Yecao and I can survive]
[There are two Grandma Gu in the ancestral temple. If I tell Steward Wu about this... will Steward Wu protect me? 】
Three dialog boxes appeared in front of Li Muyang. This was the first time.
The previous system options were two.
Obviously the three choices correspond to three different routes.
Li Muyang hesitated for a moment. The first choice to escape was obviously unreliable.
During the second stage of development, Li Muyang also tried to take Xiaoweicao to escape from Heiyun Village and find excitement in the boring daily life.
However, no matter how far the two of them ran, they would eventually be captured by the demon cultivators of Heiyun Village.
The farthest time, Li Muyang fled thousands of miles away with Xiao Yecao and lived a civilian life for half a month incognito. Then one night, the demon cultivator from Heiyun Village broke in through the window and was directly captured.
The group of demon cultivators in Heiyun Village obviously have some way of tracking the little weeds.
Looking at the three options in front of him, Li Muyang followed the old rule and saved the file first.
After the archive ended, he chose the second one.
At present, it seems that killing Manager Wu may be the main plot.
If he moves closer to Manager Wu, the little weeds will be trained towards witches.
And the game is called Fairy's Game... isn't this hint obvious enough?
I must cultivate the little weed into a noble and otherworldly fairy.
Although Li Muyang could not imagine what Xiao Yecao, a cunning, cunning, and evil-minded wild girl, would be like if she became a fairy...
In short, let’s take the main line first.
Li Muyang chose the second option and left Heiyun Village with Xiao Yecao.
In the three stages of development, the difficulty has increased significantly.
In the previous stage, he was just doing daily tasks, but in this stage, he suddenly wanted to kill Manager Wu.
It's like just getting familiar with the novice tutorial and game operations, and then smashing the gatekeeper BOSS into the player's face.
This difficulty level is too big...soul type, right?
Li Muyang, who was walking in Heiyun Village, breathed a long sigh of relief, but his eyes were quite excited.
Although the difficulty increased, he was not discouraged, but was very happy.
Because previous experience has shown that the higher the difficulty of this game system, the richer the rewards.
In the novice tutorial, Li Muyang worked hard and achieved a perfect ending, and then directly obtained the top artifact such as the Endless Spirit Rice Jar.
As for this development game, the difficulty of the first two stages is too low, so the rewards for completing the level are mediocre.
Now that the third stage suddenly increased the difficulty of the tasks, Li Muyang couldn't wait to know what the reward would be after clearing the level.
Anyway, what he lacks most now is time. Although he has no strategy, he can only explore by himself.
But as long as the game is here, he will be able to pass it sooner or later.
After walking out of Heiyun Village with Xiaoweicao, Li Muyang came to the mountains behind Heiyun Village.
The interior of the back mountain is almost empty, with a series of continuous caves connected together, creating a unique cave.
Guanshi Wu, a group of outside demon cultivators, usually hides in caves to practice and builds the caves in the mountains into their caves.
Manager Wu used to live in the village, but the demon cultivator who lived in the village was replaced two years ago.
They seemed to take turns living in the village.
Li Muyang took Xiaoweicao into the cold cave, stepped on the wet ground, and met Manager Wu who had been waiting for a long time.
Manager Wu, who was wearing a blood-red robe, looked impatient.
"Where did you die? Why is it so late today?"
Manager Wu’s eyes were not friendly.
In Li Muyang's field of vision, a system dialog box popped up.
[(Apologise to Manager Wu and make up a lie to explain why I came late)]
[(Tell the truth, tell Manager Wu that Granny Gu called her to help)]
These two options…
Li Muyang chose the first one without hesitation.
No matter how you look at it, the second one is a gift.
He told Manager Wu that he was going to Granny Gu, and Granny Gu asked him to kill him... Isn't this just seeking death?
Li Muyang made up a lie to explain why he came late.
After listening to his explanation, Manager Wu looked gloomy.
"You obviously went to see Granny Gu, but you didn't dare to tell me...then what bad thing did the old lady ask you to do?!"
The next second, Manager Wu's robe suddenly waved, and blood splattered.
[If you die, the game has failed]
…
Li Muyang sat up suddenly on the field ridge, a little confused.
"Damn! Did you die so casually?"
As expected, the difficulty of this third stage has increased a lot. You will die at every turn. The frequency of death is even higher than in the first stage. There are traps almost everywhere.
Manager Wu, who was relatively easy to talk to in the previous two stages, now kills people whenever they disagree.
It feels like after entering the third stage, the NPCs in the entire Black Cloud Village have become more murderous.
Could it be that the conflict between the foreign demonic cultivators and the local people in the village has intensified?
Li Muyang closed his eyes curiously and entered the game again.
