This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous

Mu You took out the Fool's card, carefully read the instructions on the back of the card several times, and after contemplating for a while, an idea gradually came to his mind.

He took out the pistol he picked up in Qubai Mountain yesterday, loaded the magazine, and opened the safety.

Then he looked around, fixed the pistol on a table a few meters away, tied a wire to the trigger, and connected it to his experimental table.

After making all the preparations, Mu You stood in front of the table, pointed the muzzle of the gun directly at his head, held the watch in his left hand, and pulled the string with his right hand. After exhaling, he exerted force with his right hand.

"Boom!"

The long wire was pulled, the trigger was pulled, and a bullet was fired from the muzzle of the gun, hitting his head straight.

And at the moment when the bullet was fired, Mu You's body was once again covered by that layer of transparent spherical barrier, similar to the scene in the forest that day, everything outside the barrier became extremely slow, including the bullet.

This bullet, which fired at a speed of close to 300 meters per second, slowed down to a speed that any normal person could easily catch with the naked eye under a 360-fold deceleration.

The table where the pistol was fixed was about three meters away from Mu You, and the bullet flew for nearly four seconds in his perspective before it barely entered the range of the barrier.

"Sure enough...but the bullets fly too fast..."

Mu You shook his head and pressed his pocket watch.

Four seconds is too late for him to do things, because it takes at least 10 minutes to prepare a potion, and the time converted to outside the barrier is 1.66 seconds, that is to say, the flight time of the bullet must exceed 1.66 seconds.

And based on the bullet's average speed of 300 meters per second, he needs to be more than 500 meters away from the pistol!

500 meters... Not to mention where he found such a large venue, more importantly, ordinary firearms can't reach the range of 500 meters.

"It works in principle, but the method needs to be improved..."

Mu You stroked his chin and pondered for a while, then went upstairs to the warehouse to find some copper wires and iron sheets, as well as a remote control toy that was scrapped when he was a child.

Disassembled the toy, took out the various parts and circuit boards inside, and made a simple delay trigger with an electric soldering iron and copper wire.

This busy work took him more than three hours directly, which made Mu You, a graduate of the electrical department, quite emotional. After graduation for many years, his hands-on ability has indeed plummeted.

After recovering, Mu You fixed the trigger on the pistol wrench.

Since the bullet is fired too fast, don't let it actually fire, just create an adventurous atmosphere.

Therefore, he adjusted the time of the delay trigger to 7 seconds. After he pressed the switch on the remote control, the other side had to wait for 7 seconds before shooting, which gave him two seconds of adjustment time.

Of course, Mu You is actually not sure whether this idea can work, so let's try it first.

Standing at the gunpoint again, Mu You squeezed the pocket watch tightly with his left hand, and pressed the remote control with his right hand.

As a result, half a second passed, and there was no movement around him.

Mu You was not too surprised by this, after all, he couldn't feel any tension in his heart now.

After thinking for a while, he suddenly turned his back to the muzzle of the gun, and said silently in his mind, 'I won't move a step for the next ten seconds'.

This sentence is not just a simple idea, but an extremely serious plan.

He kept hinting to himself that even if death was imminent, he would definitely carry out this order resolutely.

And at the moment when this thought came up, Mu You only felt his body lighten up, and a familiar sense of peace enveloped him.

Opening his eyes, sure enough, the layer of transparent mask has appeared in front of him again.

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that he guessed right. The triggering of the Fool's enchantment is only a part of the environment, and the more important thing is the psychological factor. As long as he can think from the bottom of his heart that he is in a crisis, the ending can be triggered. protection of the world.

After confirming that the Fool's Barrier can be triggered, the next thing will be much easier.

Mu You went back in time, set up the still in front of him, and made half a bottle of distilled water, which was also one of the materials described in the recipe scroll.

Then use a mortar to grind all kinds of dried herbs into powder and put them aside for later use.

After making these preparations, Mu You put the pocket watch outside the range of the enchantment, where he could reach it with his hand.

Then the alcohol lamp was lit and the crucible was set up.

In addition to the materials for potion refining, the most important thing is the heat. This alcohol lamp he specially bought is a knob alcohol lamp that can adjust the size of the flame, in order to cooperate with the detailed heat control on the scroll.

"The first is the herbal essence..."

Mu You took out a piece of herbal essence that he took out from the game before. The so-called herbal essence is actually a piece of light green soft waxy paste, a bit like jelly. Mu You threw the whole piece into the crucible and watched it slowly melt under the flame.

"Any kind of spiritual grass..."

From the dozen or so kinds of spiritual herbs that Mu You obtained today, he randomly grabbed a spirulina and threw it into the crucible.

"Then a handful of ordinary medicinal powder as auxiliary materials..."

Mu You grabbed a small handful of ginseng powder that had just been ground next to it. In fact, he has no idea how much he needs to add, but anyway, he can try infinitely, and with a little experimentation, he can always try it out.

"Well, there is also distilled pure water...an appropriate amount..."

Looking at the content described on the scroll, Mu You felt a headache. He hated the words like 'a handful', 'a spoonful', 'appropriate amount' the most. How big is a spoon? How big is it? Do you dare to make it clear?

Shaking his head, he pushed aside the test tube of distilled water and poured half of the tube into it, just submerged the three materials, then picked up the glass rod and started stirring.

At this time, under the heating of the flame, the inside of the crucible had already started to bubbling, and a strong medicinal bitterness emanated from it, quickly covering the entire basement.

Mu You didn't have time to pay attention to the taste. After adding all the ingredients, the next step is the most important cooking process.

According to the parchment scroll, Mu You carefully stirred while adjusting the size of the flame at any time.

Seeing the medicine in the crucible turn from yellow to red, then green, and finally began to faintly black...

Mu You already faintly felt that something was wrong, because according to the description on the recipe, the final plaster should be bright green, and the lighter the color, the better. Why did it turn black?

Sure enough, another three minutes later, the entire crucible exploded with a 'pop'.

The pot was not fried, but the black hot sticky matter inside was completely fried, splashing everywhere.

Mu You wiped off the black ointment on his face depressedly.

Obviously, the first potion preparation in life ended in failure.

"Could it be that the auxiliary medicine is useless?" Mu You thought to himself.

It is mentioned in the formula that the medicinal properties of the auxiliary medicine should also match the medicinal properties of the main medicine as much as possible. So, maybe the ginseng powder does not meet the requirements? Then try something else.

Mu You was not discouraged, and immediately went back in time, and then started the second attempt.

"Snapped!"

As a result, it exploded faster this time than last time.

"Come again!"

the third time……

"Backtrack!"

the fourth time……

...

After going back more than a hundred times in a row, Mu You tried all kinds of combinations of medicinal materials, and finally found that among all the traditional Chinese medicines, the medicinal properties of 'Angelica' are the most compatible with Spiraea, although the result still failed, but When using 'Angelica' several times, the cooking progress can be greatly improved.

Mu You feels that the material should be chosen correctly, and the rest should be a matter of technique.

Then test and fry!

In trial after trial, Mu You continued to fine-tune various cooking details.

After 421 consecutive failures, the 422nd attempt, finally! He completed all the steps perfectly, the crucible did not blow up again, and the paste inside finally took shape for the first time!

But at this time, what appeared in front of him was an ointment as black as ink...
