Chapter 1102: Chapter 503 Mu Lan: The Keeper of Order
[You are still being continuously devoured by the pale blue worms...]
[You have died, HP -1, Experience -20...]
[You resurrect not far away, and the blue worm, like a baby searching for its mother, crawls towards you again, closing its mouth around your head, your HP continuing to plummet by 200 per second...]
"..."
In reality, Mu You had been closely following the progress in the game.
Because he couldn’t move, from his current perspective, he could only see very limited situations, but he had roughly figured out what was happening. It seemed that his three avatars had dealt with the Fairy King, and the Watchman had entered the barrier in its place, suppressing Gusha.
But because Gusha had fallen into a deep sleep, the worms that had been helping him resist Gusha’s spiritual attacks lost their target, turned back, and once again treated him as a plaything. The rate of his HP slipping suddenly skyrocketed from the passive devouring of 10 points per second to the upper limit of 200 points per second!
Mu You hadn’t cared much about the 10 points per second rate, since just the equipment on his character could negate that, but now at 200 points, it was a bit terrifying.
His true HP was only at 6 points now, with a total HP of only 70,000 points. With 200 points taken every second, it would take only about 6 minutes to devour one of his lives.
The loss of lifespan was secondary, the key was the experience value, which continued to double in no time and would soon rise to a number he couldn’t afford.
After some thought, Mu You took out a bottle of epic Sweet Potion from his ring, which was a byproduct of making the legendary potion.
According to the current situation, the potion should have been invented by the Medicinal Plant Gatherer, who was also known as the Lord of Calamity. He created it in the Bitter Garden to combat the rampage of Black Magic, and it was probably not out of mere interest, but more likely, it had something to do with the fairies.
The transformed form of the fairies was indeed similar to the manifestations of uncontrolled Black Magical Power, so Mu You speculated whether the potion would also be effective against the transformed creatures?
[You take out an epic Sweet Potion and feed it into the worm’s mouth.]
[The worm swallows the potion without resistance, and the thick black miasma around it starts to dissipate immediately, its body rapidly shrinking in size.]
[Seconds later, the worm has shrunk to the size of a palm-sized blue caterpillar, but it still clings to your arm, diligently devouring your flesh, your HP slipping by 50 points per second...]
It’s really effective!
Mu You’s eyes sparkled. It appeared that the blackening of the fairies and the loss of control over Black Magic Power really were the same type of contamination.
From this point, it seemed that the Lord of Calamity invented the Sweet Potion, not to negate the price mages paid for using Black Magic, but to save the Fairy Clan.
However, it seemed that the potion alone wasn’t enough to revert the fairy lady directly back to her original form.
Mu You pondered for a moment. Previously, from the fairy lady’s memory, he had learned that fairies are creatures heavily governed by emotions. Fairies turned bizarre mostly because they could not find a reason to live or were in an extremely bad mental state.
If these two fundamental issues were not resolved, no matter how many potions were used, it would not be possible to turn the aberrations back into fairies.
The basic reason the fairy lady had mutated was that she had lost her name, which had always put her on the verge of losing her sense of living. The indirect reason was the contract he had previously made with her, which gave her the last hope, but soon, this hope had been cruelly extinguished, leading her to complete collapse.
Thinking of this, Mu You decided to help her once more. Since the root cause was the loss of a name, he decided to give her a new name and a new reason to live.
[You raise your right hand and aim the Pen of Order at the blue worm...]
He was still affected by the Chaos Curse, with his Deviation Value at a high level, which didn’t allow him to make too many rule changes, but he could still give her a new name.
[You forcibly correct the nameless fairy’s name to: Mu Lan, Guardian of Order.]
Mu Lan was her name, and "Guardian of Order" was a surname of the Fairy Race, directly determining their identity, though only a few sprites, like the Fairy Lady and Fairy King of the Royal Family, had the surname "The Blessed One."
"Guardian of Order," however, was a surname not belonging to the Fairy Race, meaning one who protects Order. This was a surname exclusive to the God of Order, which no other deity could bestow.
With this surname, it meant that from now on, the fairy girl was under the protection of the God of Order.
And the Statues of Gods she had once removed the nose from, irrespective of the deity, would not have a higher rank than the God of Order. With the protection of the God of Order, that deity’s will could no longer deprive her of her name.
At the same time, this name also provided her with a reason to live: to live to guard Order! It was a long-term job, and although its specific content was not quite clear, it was enough to save her from her previous aimless existence.
[With the new name, the berserk worm quickly became calm, no longer gnawing at your flesh.]
[Deep in your heart, you sense the worm regaining its clear consciousness and sending feelings of gratitude and remorse towards you.]
[You see the worm’s eyes incessantly welling with tears, and as they fall and hit the air, they solidify into transparent solid crystals.]
[Soon, the crystalline tears have completely enveloped it, forming a worm cocoon on your arm, with the blue worm coiling up inside the cocoon, falling into a deep sleep, awaiting the day it breaks free and transforms...]
