Homecoming through online games

=====================

After a brief surprise, Ye Mu calmed down.

He has been misidentified several times, but it was all misunderstandings caused by the secret language system, and it was the first time that he was called "Lord Demon God" face to face.

"—I'm assuming, you didn't recognize the wrong person?" Ye Mu said.

The man looked up with a surprised expression.He said: "The demon seed chose you. You don't have the memory to inherit it?"

"What does that mean?" Ye Mu began to have a bad premonition. Thinking of the effect of the magic seed, he vaguely felt that he might have picked up a big trouble.

"Uh, maybe because you were originally a human being, it takes time to inherit memories...?" The man scratched his head in confusion, looking a little silly.

Sensing Ye Mu's sight, the man's hand holding his head froze, put it down as if nothing had happened, coughed lightly, and said: "I really don't understand why the demon seed would choose a human being. But it chose you, you are the new one." Demon God. When I say this, it may sound difficult for people to accept, but you are no longer a human being, and it will be good for you to know about this earlier." He pointed to Ye Mu's head, wondering, "It's It should be in your mind now, I don't know when it will work... Don't you really feel any discomfort?"

Ye Mu didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him at all, he didn't feel that there was anything extra in his mind, and he didn't feel that he was "not human anymore".The man's words sound ridiculous, but since this is not a scientific world...

Ye Mu held the mentality of judging the authenticity, and continued to ask: "You said that I am a demon god, but as far as I know, your priest is enshrining a 'devil god'. Next, do you want to tell me that it There is also a 'demon seed' of this kind?"

"The devil is the only one." The man replied decisively, with a posture of knowing everything and talking endlessly, "The demon you mentioned just eliminated many high-level demons who once knew the truth about the demon god, and claimed to be the 'devil god'." ', just to bluff those newborn monsters. Even if it is powerful enough to kill the previous Demon God, if it cannot be recognized by the Demon Seed, it will never become a real Demon God, and cannot possess the power of the Demon God."

The uniqueness is what he said.Ye Mu's heart sank, and he still looked at him suspiciously on the surface: "You said it got rid of those demons who knew the truth, so how did you know this? Also——you look a lot like me before Someone I've met before." While saying this, he was secretly ready to attack.

He didn't really believe that the other party would tell him so much out of kindness, no matter what he said was true or not, he would ask for more information while he could ask, if the man showed any signs of attack, he would not be honest Waiting for the opponent to make the first move.

The man nodded, and said, "We met before, and you gave me some dry food." His purple eyes flashed, and they were incredibly beautiful for a moment, "For this reason, I advise you to give me some food before the influence begins." When the time comes, leave here as soon as possible and find a safe place. The process of inheriting the memory may take a long time, and the breath of the demon seed may attract high-level demons. As for why I know this..."

He closed his eyes, as if there was brilliance flowing on him, the white robe surged and swelled, like a tree taking root, and five or six tentacles that looked quite familiar and the thickness of arms spread out from the hem, like It seemed to be alive. After stretching out, it slowly lifted into the air, and each of them swayed their heads and brains.

This was the main reason why Ye Mu didn't attack right away - the tentacle didn't show any ferocity, to be honest, it still looked... stupid, a bit stupid.He saw with his own eyes that when the two tentacles protruded from under the robe, they bumped into each other, and then suddenly separated and straightened as if they were shocked, like two wooden sticks, stretched for a long time, and then softened again.

The man opened his eyes, and the gray-black stone eyes looked at Ye Mu silently. He obviously didn't speak, but a voice sounded: "You killed the dolphin mother, and I inherited the memory of 'it'. Although the demon species didn't choose it , but let it become a guardian. The demon seed gave it knowledge about the demon god, gave it the magic energy to enhance its strength, and also affected it and changed it. But this change is negligible——and will happen in Compared with the changes in you, they are insignificant."

The tentacles waved slowly, the voice continued, there was no emotional ups and downs in the tone, like a prophecy, "Now, now you are still a human being, but the change has already begun. The demonic energy will gradually erode you, and this process must be faster than yours. Much faster than imagined, you will become a complete monster. You will find that you can initially influence those low-strength monsters and make them obey you, but more powerful monsters will detect you and resist you, demon species Attracting them, to defeat you, to kill you. Death, means the end. Live, 'you' will become a demon god."

"What if I 'leave'?" Ye Mu asked thoughtfully.If the demon seed can affect the demon, what will happen if you stay away from the demon?

"You have no choice." The man's eyes turned purple again, he retracted his tentacles one by one, and said, "Unless you can completely control the power of the demon seed, then you can go anywhere. Before that, it It will absorb a lot of magic energy to change your body. When you kill monsters, their magic energy will be absorbed by you, and the balance will be maintained. If there is no supplementary magic energy, the demon seed will give you magic energy by itself. Never a good thing, if you want to preserve your consciousness in this erosion, try to avoid it doing so."

He looked at the sky and said, "I've been out for too long, it's time to go back." After saying this, he didn't turn around and leave immediately. Instead, he stood still for a moment, turned his hands behind his back, and looked at the empty Looking at Ye Mu again, he turned around and stood by the door, saying, "Ah!...Are you leaving too? Next time we meet, you will be the real Demon God. Please."

"Thank you for the news." Ye Mu said, "... Are your tentacles all right? It looks like it hurts from stepping on it."

He just saw a tentacle sticking out from behind the man's feet, then retracted and hid it under the robe. He thought that the man deliberately left a hand to attack from behind.As a result, when he watched the man turn sideways, he just... kicked... heavily... stepped on it.

So, it's not a sneak attack, but it's not being able to take it back because of poor control...?

It just hurts to look at it. It's a good thing he can hold back and say such a bunch of words without changing his face.

The man's face changed, and his pretended calm expression broke. He immediately moved his feet aside, lifted his robe, fished out the tentacle dragging behind him, held it in front of him with both hands, and examined it carefully.The tip of the tentacle was swollen from being stepped on, and it was red and bright like a small light bulb.The man raised his hand, touched it cautiously, and retracted instantly like lightning, his face twitched in pain.

Ye Mu put away the weapon without a word, took out a flat box on himself, and said, "Take it. Apply it externally to relieve swelling and pain." He raised his hand and threw it over.

The man raised one hand, just caught it, and said awkwardly: "...Thank you." He spread some translucent light green ointment in the box on the tentacles, and his expression was visibly relaxed.He looked at Ye Mu with his tentacles, cleared his throat, gave up trying to hold up the unfathomable posture, and said, "Well, the strength is growing too fast, and I can't get used to it for a while. It's a joke. The last meeting was too hasty, and I didn't Give me a name. My name is Wang Tianliu, who are you?"

"Ye Mu."

Wang Tianliu let out a "huh" and said, "You are Ye Mu? The one from Xiliang?...Let me tell you, the priest who kidnapped me has noticed you. It's better not to use your real name recently. .”

Priest... Yuanzhou?Ye Mu was quite surprised. After thinking about it for a while, he guessed that it was probably because he made too much noise in Xiliang and showed his whereabouts.He nodded and said, "Thank you for reminding... How is the situation in Changyi City?" He took advantage of the situation and asked.

Wang Tianliu showed a complicated expression, and said: "Being surrounded, the situation can't be said well. But we are still fighting, so... the situation is okay?"

He seemed unwilling to talk about it, waved his hand, grabbed the tentacles and hurried away.Ye Mu walked to the door, and from a distance, he could still vaguely see him trying to tuck the tentacles back under his robe as he walked, but he almost tripped when he didn't pay attention, and more tentacles popped out in surprise.

Watching the white robe disappear into the night in a hurry, Ye Mu withdrew his gaze and decided to leave immediately.The matter of the holy fruit can be investigated later, the most important thing right now is to understand the impact of this "demon seed".

He slipped out of the village with ease, passed through the valley where the monsters were stationed, wandered secretly around the edge, and selected a single black-level monster, and shot suddenly, killing him with one blow.

——The moment Daofeng harvested his life, he felt the "demon seed".

This feeling is hard to describe. There is no change in what the naked eye sees, but one can feel something being called and flowing from the demon.

In the next moment, it was as if a slender worm had penetrated into his body, and he felt a severe burning pain and a feeling of passing through.

Ye Mu's hand trembled, and he almost failed to hold the knife.He dodged into the shadows, half-kneeling on the ground with a knife in his hands, sweating profusely.At this moment, I can clearly feel that flowing thing swims from the arm all the way to the throat, head, turns around in the brain, then splits into two, and rushes into the eyeball quickly!

His eyes darkened, and he tightly covered his eyes. The pain seemed to be stirred by someone with a dagger, and he almost suspected that his eyeballs had been broken.But the intact touch under the palm told him that all this was an illusion.The pain faded away quickly, and a warm feeling gradually surrounded her, like... like the peace of mind of being in the arms of a mother in the vague memory of childhood.

Ye Mu moved his hand away, slowly opened his eyes tentatively, and blinked subconsciously.

What appeared before his eyes was a brand new world.

The dark night unveiled its mysterious veil to him, and the darkness still enveloped him, but it no longer obstructed his vision.The moonlight and the night were intertwined to create the best brilliance, strands of black mist rose from the ground, clustered and rolled up to the ankle height, and then gently spread out.And around him, the mist jumped and shuttled happily, and melted away when it touched his body, which brought that extraordinarily warm and comfortable feeling.Ye Mu reached out his hand to grab a handful, but there was nothing in the tentacles, the mist was picked up on his hand like a cloud, and then quickly disappeared in his palm.

This is... magic energy?

He stood up holding the knife and looked around, as if the sky was divided into two sides.The land I was in at this moment, the moon and stars in the sky, shone coldly on the black sky, and beyond that invisible dividing line, on the farther side of the sky, endless darkness suddenly swallowed everything , just by taking a look, it seems that they will be involved in the deep and dignified black.

In some parts, the junction between the sky and the darkness is somewhat blurred and distorted, as if it is being eroded by the darkness.

After identifying the direction of the darkness, Ye Mu murmured: "The southeast wilderness..."

——A place where demons inhabit.

He glanced at the information bar:

Transformation experience: 3/10000

It's really the way the game is displayed... With a wry smile, Ye Mu's mood was quite complicated for a while.The change brought about by the demon seed has been verified, which means that he has to face the fact that he will become an unknown creature.Thinking about it optimistically, he remembered that the picture of the transformation of the demon seed he saw was a very handsome figure, so it should be similar here... right?

It's fine in human form, really.

Shaking his head slightly to stop his wild thoughts, Ye Mu calmed down and considered how to deal with this matter.

In terms of game information, he couldn't find any way to undo the "binding" of the magic seed.Hunting demons is not difficult for him, the key is to replenish the demon energy in time to avoid the erosion of consciousness by demon seeds.He could faintly feel a hunger-like weakness in his body, and it seemed that he needed more magic energy.also--

Ye Mu looked down at the King Butterfly imprint on his wrist.From the standpoint of natural spiritual beings, he has no doubts about how they will react when confronted with "demon seeds".He is not worried about Ye Cang and the three of them, but Qing Guang's attitude is very appreciable, he doesn't want to have an unpredictable crisis at any time.It's time to break the companionship contract.

However, first find a place where you will not be disturbed.After all, it's hard to say whether Qing Guang, who has lived for a long time, will recognize the demon seed.In the worst case, he may have to face an enemy with "extreme" strength the second he is summoned.

The riverside is a good place. The side of the human sphere of influence will not attract monsters. After solving this matter, it will be very convenient to come back and hunt monsters.On the way, he could go to Changyi City to say hello and exchange information with Jiang Wang.

Ye Mu thought, and hoped that Jiang Wang would not be too surprised when he heard the news about the demon seed.Not long ago, he was chatting with Jiang Wang, wanting to see if there was a way to kill the Demon God. Who would have thought that within two days, he would become this "Devil God"?

...But it seems quite rare to see Jiang Wang's surprised expression.

Remembering Jiang Wang's rare look of astonishment when he heard him say it, Ye Mu couldn't help laughing.The bottom of my heart was much more relaxed, and I suddenly felt that it was not so important to become a monster who didn't know what it was.

For the future, let's make plans when he really has the ability of the so-called "demon god"!

Thinking about sending a message to Ye Cang and the others first, to prepare them psychologically.Ye Mu called up the map, and was startled when he browsed the marked dots.

Ye Cang's spot of light—disappeared from Jiangnan, and appeared in Changyi City.

What happened?He immediately tried to whisper to Ye Cang, but saw words appearing on the information bar:

In a special state, sending information failed.

He tried to whisper to other people again, but still got the same feedback.After a few times, I had to give up, blaming it on the "transformation state" of the demon seed.

Not knowing whether this situation is temporary or permanent, Ye Mu remembered the restrictions on the transformation of the monster in the game.

You cannot use any props and martial skills...

During this period of time, he has become proficient in various attack methods of the Palace of Seven Kills, and he doesn't rely much on system assistance during the battle. The surprise attack just now was also controlled by himself.He re-selected a monster, and secretly tried to launch an attack with a systematic skill. He felt his body pause heavily on the spot for a moment, and the attack was launched!

Ye Mu's complexion was very bad after killing the monster with a few knives.

The moment he tried to activate the skill, he completely lost control of his body.This is different from the previous state of launching skills with the help of the system. In the system skills, he can feel how his muscles are exerting force and how his body is moving. But just now—just now, he lost all sense of his body in an instant , like a ghost, exists in the world without any support, without any connection.

This feeling has never been worse.

He temporarily gave up his plan to try to use props again.Judging from the troubles in the martial arts, he felt that he might have food poisoning after drinking a bottle of milk.

In the future battles, you need to be extra careful.

Ye Mu changed back to the monster's disguise, and quickly set off to return to the direction of Changyi City.He strangled and killed all kinds of monsters along the way, taking care not to show his tracks, but trying his best to pretend to be fighting among the monsters.

The change of the monster species is still going on, and Ye Mu is beginning to be able to detect the breath of the monster, and even judge its strength.This provided a lot of convenience for his assassination.In addition, the nails on his hands became hard and sharp, with a faint metallic luster, and he seemed to have grown taller.Thank goodness there wasn't an extra tail or two extra horns.

When he arrived at the demon camp outside Changyi City, even if he did not disguise his human appearance, no demon would doubt his identity as a demon—a ghost-faced horse who is most sensitive to demon energy followed him step by step. The rein lead is also so obedient that it does not leave a step, and from time to time it pokes its head to nibble the ground he walked on.

This beast is the mount of a monster killed by Ye Mu, and after the death of its master, it followed Ye Mu.It seems to be able to see the devil's energy, and every time it likes to take advantage of the nearby devil's energy to gather towards Ye Mu, and when it rolls up a wave, it chews it down, eating it very happily.Ye Mu recognized that it was the kind of beast that Jiang Wang had ridden before, and he needed an inconspicuous mount to walk in the monster's territory, so he didn't drive it away.He didn't know that this move inadvertently saved him a lot of trouble.

After showing the token that Jiang Wang had given him in advance, he entered the camp smoothly. When Ye Mu raised his eyes, he saw many familiar school costumes.

People from Yinyu Building?He was taken aback, and when he looked more carefully, he found that these Yinyulou disciples had pale complexion, numb expressions, and demonic aura in their bodies, obviously they were not alive.

ghoul.

Ye Mu frowned, walked directly through the camp, and walked towards Jiang Wang's tent.There were two Yinyulou ghoul guards outside the tent. They seemed to have received an order in advance. After seeing the token, one of them said, "Your Excellency is not in the tent, follow me."

The voice is hoarse and the tone is flat.Carrying a somewhat dilapidated giant bow, he looked very young, probably in his early twenties, but was frighteningly thin.

Suppressing the slight strangeness in his heart, Ye Mu left the beasts outside the tent, and under the leadership of the ghoul, he walked around half of the camp and saw Jiang Wang at the edge of the camp near Changyi City.

There are many tall monsters parked here, and Jiang Wang is standing at the foot of one of them, talking with a Yinyulou ghoul.

Sensing someone approaching, Jiang Wang stopped talking and turned his head.Ye Mu was about to raise his hand to say hello to him, when Jiang Wang saw him for the first time, his slightly smiling expression suddenly changed.

He left the person he was talking with, walked over in strides, and in a blink of an eye, he was in front of him. With a stern expression, he raised his hand and grabbed Ye Mu's shoulder. other people.After raising his hand and waving the ghoul away, he raised his eyes and asked, "What did you do—what happened to you to make yourself look like this?"

The voice squeezed out of the throat was tense, completely no longer clear and calm as usual, and even sounded a little distorted, almost like another person was speaking.

Jiang Wang's appearance like this is really scary.Ye Mu quickly explained: "I found a natural selection cult human village in the priest's residence, killed the heaven-level monster dolphin mother enshrined in it, absorbed a demon seed for no reason, and then it was like this." The expression is more innocent.

"Demon Seed?" The ending sound rose, with doubts.Jiang Wangzai looked at Ye Mu carefully. After taking a deep breath, he tried to keep his voice gentle and calm, and asked, "...are you okay?"

There was still concern in his tone.

Feeling warm in his heart, Ye Mu patted his hand reassuringly, and said, "I'm fine...huh?"

The skin touched was not as cold as expected, but slightly warm.Surprised, Ye Mu changed to holding his palm, only then was he convinced that it was not an illusion.Just as I was about to ask what happened, I heard a loud shout from a distance:

"stop!"

Before the person arrives, the voice arrives first.The person who made the sound was not much slower than the sound, Ye Mu and Jiang Wang followed the sound, and saw the fierce sword light attacking like a horse training!

The two reacted quickly and dodged each other. The saber light chased after Jiang, and the menacing force made him dodge for a while, forcing him to move a few meters away.The offensive stopped, and a figure appeared, but it was Ye Cang standing on the field with a long knife in his hand, staring at Jiang Wang with red eyes murderously, turning his back to Ye Mu and not turning back, nervously said: "Father, are you okay? Don't be fooled, this guy is a monster."

"..." Ye Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "I know."

"Ah?" Ye Cang heard Ye Mu say this, saw that Jiang Wang didn't intend to fight, and realized that he might have misunderstood.The tip of the knife drooped, and he took a few steps back to stand beside Ye Mu, but still stared at Jiang Wang unrelentingly.Just as he was about to speak, he seemed to notice something, his nose fluttered, he sniffed suspiciously, and then sneezed earth-shatteringly.

Ye Mu wanted to speak, but Ye Cang stopped him with gestures. He rubbed his nose, looked around, and finally stopped on Jiang Wang, sniffed again, and sniffed again.He stared at Jiang Wang in disbelief, looked and looked, and let go of his hand, and the long knife fell to the ground with a "clang", showing an expression of being struck by lightning.

He maintained this expression of being struck by lightning, turned his head to look at Ye Mu, pointed at Jiang Wang with trembling fingers, and asked, "Daddy...he, is he that female demon?!"

This is different from what I imagined!What about the hot body?What about the enchanting looks?What do you think of this man... He, he is a man, right?

Jiang Wang raised his eyebrows, stood there leisurely, and was not angry when he was pointed at. When Ye Cang looked over, he showed him a loving smile.

Ye Cang shuddered, turned his head quickly with a click, and looked back at Ye Mu, with red eyes full of accusations, waiting for the answer.

This kind of embarrassing scene... Ye Mu coughed dryly, feeling that he had committed a crime and couldn't live, if he had made it clear earlier, there would be nothing wrong with it?If you know a mistake, change it.He looked at Ye Cang, and replied seriously: "There are no female demons. It's my fault that I didn't make it clear to you earlier. The person I like is him."

There is a subtle feeling of coming out of the closet for the first time...

Ye Mu watched as Ye Cang changed from being struck by lightning to blank.Guiltily called out: "Cang'er?"

Are you really too scared?

Ye Cang blinked, blinked again, and slowly came back to his senses.He looked at Ye Mu, then at Jiang Wang, and remained silent for a while, wondering what he was thinking for a while.

Then he turned into a child with a "thump".

Under Ye Mu's suspicious eyes, the little boy walked up to Jiang Wang with short legs and stood still, raised his head, with a straight face, and said:

"What a disrespect just now. Mother."

The last two words are pronounced in a correct manner, and in the raised red eyes, the meaning... is profound.
