Chapter 157: Intelligence on the Ghost(2/3)
The next second, Mu You appeared in a sea of water, and the water pressure of the deep sea hit from all directions.
Fortunately, I put on the fish-man mask in advance, and after adjusting my breathing, I quickly adapted to the water pressure.
Mu You picked up the lamppost on the side, without having time to take a closer look, stuffed it into his backpack, found a few stones to cover the teleportation array, and then hurriedly swam out to the sea.
Above the sea is a group of rocks located on the wild coast.
Mu You climbed up the reef, and the teleportation array was built near the location where the fishing nets were arranged.
After walking around on the nearby reef, Mu You quickly saw the buoy not far away, and walked over to pull up the fishing net to take a look.
As expected, it was really empty inside...
There was a big hole in the bottom of the fishing net, and the leak was repaired crookedly with obviously different materials. Now there are only a few fish scales hanging on the holes under the fishing net.
Apparently, some fish had visited us before, but after circling around in the net, they turned around and slipped away.
Mu You shook his head. He didn't expect to catch any fish with this broken net.
Throwing the fishing net into the water again, he opened his backpack, took out the prepared can of bait, poured a bottle of sleeping potion into the bait, and then wrapped the crumpled bait with spider silk and hung it in the center of the fishing net.
"I hope this potion will work..."
Mu You breathed out. This fishing net was restricted by rules and could only be harvested once a day. He planned to come back and have a look when he returned tomorrow, hoping that his trip would not be in vain.
After setting up the fishing net, Mu You climbed up to the coast, found a high place to take a look, and quickly found the direction of the city.
It was more than ten kilometers away, a city built on the mountain, half embedded in the mountain and half built in the water.
There are obviously many residents in this city, and the lights are still bright late at night. The brilliance of various magic lamps illuminates the city brightly, like a city that never sleeps in the water.
There are some drainage canals around the city. The game characters must have escaped from these waterways before. However, I don’t know if it was affected by the appearance of wanted criminals yesterday. At this time, sentry patrols were arranged around these waterways to closely monitor them.
Follow every move under the water.
Of course, Mu You brought a mask this time, so just go through the main entrance.
Mu You put on the fisherman's skin, put on the Thousand Man Thousand Faces, and activated the mask's effect of deeply hiding his aura. Within the next twenty-four hours, he would not be able to detect the Fool's aura.
Mu You picked up a bamboo basket by the river, filled it with some water plants, pretended to be a fisherman returning from the sea, and walked towards the city gate.
Along the way, he saw many players who went online at night.
Obviously, this massive hunt in the Star Spirit Realm has put a lot of pressure on the players, forcing them to work in the dark and wander around the city. No one dares to approach the city gate.
Muyou took the time to observe the player's game characters for a while, and found that the players and NPCs were very easy to distinguish. There was no difference in appearance, but the difference in behavior was too obvious: those actions were sneaky, and they were stuck from time to time.
Those whose actions are obviously dull are definitely players.
Arriving at the city gate, as expected, many knights of the Guard gathered at the city gate, carefully checking the pedestrians passing by.
Mu You believed in the effectiveness of the mask, but he still made some preparations before approaching. He hid his pocket watch and wand in his sleeves, and if he found something was wrong, he could backtrack at any time.
As a result, he was released smoothly.
The soldier guarding the gate was completely unable to detect his Fool attribute. After an interrogation, he even distributed a brand new identity certificate to him.
Mu You picked it up and looked at it. It was an identity token engraved with the pattern of Sunset City. It stored his justice camp reputation data. Currently, it only had the fourteen points obtained from killing the werewolf, so it was only the lowest Black Iron Token.
As the reputation increases, the token level seems to increase.
As for the use of higher-level identity tokens, Muyou doesn’t know yet.
Entering the city, Mu You looked at the night market in this other world.
The nobles and wizards of this city basically live in the mountains, and those living below the mountains are generally ordinary civilians. As for the poor who cannot afford to live in houses, they can only crowd in the cold and damp underground rivers below.
Mu You didn't want to come into contact with the aborigines for the time being, so he walked along the streets alone, passing through several of the busiest commercial streets, and when he came out of a dark alley, he suddenly heard someone calling him next to him.
"Huh? A new-faced fisherman, could it be that he is new from another city? Welcome to Sunset City, why don't you come and take a look at my products, guaranteed to be of high quality and low price!" A green-skinned, pointed-eared, short goblin
There was a stall on the roadside. When I saw Mu You passing by, my eyes lit up and I immediately said hello.
Mu You turned around and saw the green goblin setting up a stall on the roadside, and was immediately happy.
Isn't this the goblin businessman who wanted to trick him yesterday?
I didn’t even think about looking for you, but you came to my door yourself!
Mu You approached decisively: "What do you sell here?"
As he asked, his eyes swept over its stall, and he saw that on the yellowed tablecloth, there were only some bread, fruits, colorful stones, some dirty antiques, metal jewelry, etc., but basically they were all
It's just scrap metal, nothing of real value.
"Come and see this!"
The goblin picked up a pack of biscuits and promoted them enthusiastically: "This is the latest elf biscuit. If you eat one piece, you can go without eating for three days. This pack can provide at least three months of rations. It only costs 20
Lifespan, how about it?"
Mu You sneered secretly, because he had clearly seen the properties of this cookie through the omniscient crystal.
Spoiled elf biscuits: You will not be hungry for three days after eating them, but you will have diarrhea for three days afterward.
If you really eat this thing, you will probably collapse. It is really evil to sell such fake and shoddy products.
However, Mu You did not point it out directly. Instead, he scanned the other products on the stall, showed a noncommittal expression, and suddenly said: "Do you sell information here?"
"Intelligence?"
The goblin was stunned. He obviously didn't expect that a fisherman would ask such a question. He hesitated for a moment and then nodded: "Sell, of course, but generally the information that can be sold is relatively valuable..."
Mu You immediately glared at it displeasedly: "Why, do you think I can't afford it?"
"No, no, no, just ask."
The goblin businessman quickly changed his mind. He had been doing business for many years and had developed extraordinary eyesight. Therefore, he immediately saw that the fisherman seemed to be confident in what he said. He was probably holding a huge sum of money and was waiting to squander it if he had an unexpected encounter outside.
So it immediately changed its attitude, rubbed its hands and looked at Muyou in a flattering manner: "If you want to ask for any information, just ask!"
"The information I want to ask about is about a ship named 'Ghost'."
"Ghost?"
The goblin was stunned when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed and said confidently: "You have asked the right person. I guarantee that I am the only one in Sunset City who knows this news! Because I am the only one who has ever seen the survivors of that ship."
p>
"Survivor? You mean, the ship sank?" Mu You frowned.
"This is information content. I can only tell you after you buy it. It's not expensive and only requires one year of life!" Goblin said.
"Okay, I bought it." Mu You nodded without hesitation.
[You agreed to the information transaction with the goblin merchant, lifespan -1.]
The moment he agreed, a reminder sounded in his mind.
The goblins obviously also received the prompt. After a moment of joy, they hurriedly spoke: "In the southern sea thousands of kilometers away from Sunset City, there is a piece of water called the 'Devil's Zone'. That triangular sea area.
It is said that people who have been eternally cursed will have their bodies eroded by the curse if they die within the Devil's Sea, and their bodies will not be able to be resurrected. As a result, they will become earth-bound ghosts after death and be trapped in that sea forever."
"More than seven hundred years ago, the Ghost hit a reef in that devilish sea. The ship was destroyed and everyone died. More than 400 crew members on board were all buried at the bottom of the sea. There was only one lucky boatman who didn't have time to board the ship.
Survived."
As the goblin spoke, he took out an ancient sheepskin scroll from his body and said with a smile: "The pirate who escaped also died in an accident three years ago. I spent a lot of money to get it from that pirate.
The map you bought marked the wreckage location of the Ghost. Now, you only need to spend a little more life to buy this map. You see..."
Sure enough, there is a backup plan!
Mu Youxin said that this guy was following the same pattern as the black-hearted scarecrow. The information was only sold for one year, but the truly valuable things were waiting behind.
"Show me the map." Mu You stretched out his hand to ask for it.
"That's not possible. You have to buy it before you can watch it." The goblin quickly and vigilantly put away the parchment.
"How long does it take to live?"
"Not expensive, 500 years!" the goblin said, spreading a hand.
Mu You's eyelids twitched, and he thought to himself, can these profiteers see the balance of his life span? How come they can always quote the upper limit of his life span?
Before, Mu You would definitely use a pocket watch at this time and use its map for free.
But this time it doesn’t have to be so troublesome.
"It's a little expensive!" Mu You frowned.
"It's not expensive! Boss, think about it. As long as you have this map, you can get all the treasures left by the pirates. It only has a lifespan of 500 years. This is definitely a hugely profitable deal!" the goblin said hurriedly.
Mu You sneered when he heard this. This guy only mentioned the benefits, but did not mention the dangers at all. Is it so easy to get the pirate's treasure? Four hundred crew members died, which means that there are now more than four hundred ghosts on the pirate ship. Ordinary people
In the past, there was absolutely no life or death.
This guy is probably eager to wait until he has died before selling the information to others.
"How can I be sure that your map and information are true?" Mu You asked after thinking about it.
"You can rest assured about this! For such a large order, we can sign a blood contract to ensure that it will not be fake."
The goblin was overjoyed when he saw Mu You's move, and hurriedly took out another familiar scroll from his body, which was the blood contract scroll that Mu You had used.
To be continued...
