Chapter 39 Murloc Tribe
Su Ke, who was at home the next day, was studying the pills in his hand.

The pills were first discovered on the black market in the east part of the city.

As the number of game players increases, everyone is no longer satisfied with pure online transactions.

Black markets targeting gamers began to appear in every corner of the city.

Trading in the black market is more convenient and more concealed, and it is very popular among gamers.

It is precisely because of this that it makes the monitoring and management of the Bureau of Investigation more difficult.

By the time the Bureau discovered the problem, a large number of pills had been released.

The first person to have problems was a student from Magic City Academy.

He and his friends are both gamers and like to compete with each other.

He had always been inferior to his friends, and after hearing about the pills' effects, he bought some on the black market.

After taking the pill, his strength indeed increased greatly, but he suddenly lost control and attacked his opponent crazily.

Fortunately, there were others around to stop him, and his friend was only seriously injured and did not die.

Later, the student claimed that there seemed to be many indescribable voices whispering in his ears.

Because of the existence of that voice, at that time he just wanted to tear all the living things around him to pieces.

At that time, he had no way to control his behavior.

In a daze, he seemed to see a huge shadow lingering in the sky in the distance, with countless tentacle-like tissues constantly squirming.

"This is a classic sign of being tainted by the power of Cthulhu."

Cthulhu is a giant with an octopus head, a human body, and bat wings on his back.

In the legend of the world of Origin God, although Cthulhu has always been sleeping.

But he still comes into contact with other creatures through mental contamination.

Other creatures tainted by his spirit drive madness, eventually mutating into irrational monsters.

"Why does the Bureau of Investigation turn a blind eye to such obvious characteristics of the evil god's power?"

Zuko thought.

He rarely goes to the Exploration Bureau headquarters and doesn't know the people at the headquarters very well.

But he knew that Lu Shuchen, the director of the Demon City Exploration Bureau, was a very serious and responsible old man.

It is absolutely impossible to let go of such an obvious clue easily.

"So... what happened?"

Zuko felt uneasy.

He was ready to investigate. The Bureau of Investigation manages all gamers in the city.

If there is a problem within the Exploration Bureau, there will be big trouble.

Su Ke took out his phone and opened the Yuanshen game.

There is a hint about this pill in the game.

[You got the 'Fear Pill'! 】

[Fear pills, pills containing special energy, can stimulate the user's potential, but have some minor side effects. 】

"A small side effect? ​​Can being contaminated by the spirit of Cthulhu be considered a small side effect?"

Fortunately, these players who took fear pills returned to normal soon after they stopped taking fear pills after being controlled.

But there is no way to guarantee that all players who have problems will be able to stop using fear pills.

If they take too much fear pills, what awaits them may be the end of being contaminated by the spirit of Cthulhu.

It can even lead to players becoming evil spirits.

It is said that the man who escaped has not been caught so far.

I don't know if this incident has anything to do with him.

"What an eventful autumn!"

Zuko sighed.

But there's not much he can do right now.

You can also think of ways to improve your own strength.

At the very least, he must take the totem of the fishman tribe into his own hands as soon as possible.

As long as the strength becomes stronger, no matter what problems you encounter, you will be able to handle it with ease.

Putting the pills away, Zuko came online again.

When the game is online, he is still in his fishman hut.

Operate the game characters to leave the house, and first go around the murloc tribe.

However, as his strength increased, the number of fish-men who actively challenged him became less and less.

According to the rules, he can only challenge fishmen ranked higher than himself.

At this stage, he ranks second only to the chief and the core figures of several tribes.

These people have the right to reject his challenge.

"No matter what, go take a look outside the tribe!"

Compared to the murlocs of the murloc tribe, the rewards that can be obtained by sacrificing other creatures are relatively small.

But it’s better than nothing.

[You leave the fishman tribe and enter the Nightmare Wetland. 】

[The guards of the tribe express their sincere greetings to you. As a warrior of the tribe, you now have high prestige in the murloc tribe. 】

[However, as a well-known strong man in the fish-man tribe, walking really cannot show your noble status. 】

[So you decided to go to the tribe’s animal stable to find a means of transportation. 】

Su Ke thought so too.

As his strength has improved, he is now a popular candidate for the next Chiefs position.

And only the chief can legitimately gain control of the totem.

What he needs to do now is to show his strength and majesty among the fish-men as much as possible.

It's not that he wants to show off, it's that he has to.

Zuko went to the tribe's animal pen.

[You return to the tribe and find the stable manager to inquire about renting the mount. 】

[The manager of the animal pen tells you that as a new member of the fishman clan, you have the right to get a mount of your own from the animal pen. 】

[At this stage, there are four kinds of mounts in the animal pen: water snake, white-haired bear, muscular fish beast, and water rhinoceros. 】

[You can choose one of them as your own mount. 】

[The water snake is the most common mount of the fishman tribe, and is actually a big python.

Its combat effectiveness is average, but its movement speed in the swamp environment is amazing. 】

[The white-haired bear is a giant bear mount similar to a polar bear. Its ears and tail are very small, and its whole body is covered with thick white hair except for the soles of its feet and the tip of its nose.

This mount has a very sensitive sense of smell and is an expert at tracking.

However, due to its large size, it is relatively difficult to move smoothly in the swamp environment. 】

[The muscular fish beast is a companion beast of the fish-man. Strictly speaking, it is a mutated fish-man.

They are larger than ordinary fishmen and do not have any intelligence.

It has great strength, amazing jumping ability, and good fighting ability. 】

[The water rhinoceros is a large-tonnage rhinoceros with thick skin and amazing defense capabilities.

His huge body and armor-like skin allow him to ignore most physical attacks.

But the movement speed is slow, and it usually needs to consume a lot of food to maintain its mobility. 】

Zuko thought for a moment and chose the muscular fish beast.

The water snake is too ordinary and does not fit his current status.

The white-furred bear is good, but at this stage he mainly moves in the swamp environment.

Mounts like white-haired bears are obviously not suitable for this environment.

Water rhinos have the same problem.

In addition, his consumption of food was so alarming that Zuko couldn't afford to feed him.

He didn't want to waste all his energy looking for food for his mount.
