  Chapter 4 Only Children Make Choices

   Moreover, Mu You thought that in this world full of magic, things like magic spells should be very cheap, but unexpectedly, spells are the most expensive commodity!

  One of the most common low-level flame spells has a lifespan of 100 years! Don't even think about those more advanced magics, they are definitely not something that he can get his hands on now.

   Mu You shook his head regretfully, and was about to leave the store.

  Unexpectedly, at this time, a new text popped up in the game.

  【The owner of the old cat shop seems to have seen your difficulties. As a new customer benefit, it gave you a roll of healing bandages for free. I hope you can take care of its business in the future. 】

  【Healing bandages: emergency supplies for wounds, which can heal injuries instantly after use, or avoid a death when receiving physical attacks. 】

   "Oh hoo?"

  Mu You's eyes lit up, and he was instantly moved.

   What kind of peerless boss is this?

  Although this bandage can't directly increase life span, it can avoid one death, which is exactly what he needs most now.

   What's more: FREE FREE FREE FREE!

  In this world full of malice, only the owner of the cat can feel a little warmth.

  【Before leaving, the cat shop owner told you that three random items will be put on the shelves in the owl shop every morning. Remember to come and see it every day, maybe there will be something you need. 】

   "No problem boss, when I get rich in the future, I will definitely take care of your business every day!"

   Mu You silently said something in his heart, and chose [Leave].

  【You left the owl store and started on the road again. 】

  【You see at the end of the snowy road, a little bit of lights, a very familiar scene. almost there! Not far ahead is a village! 】

  【You hurry up and finally come to the front of the village. 】

  Mu Youxin said it wasn't easy. After being bullied by various small animals all the way, he finally found a safe zone... In other words, there is no danger in entering the village, right?

  【You are about to enter the village, when you suddenly find a bearded hunter lying in a pool of blood at the entrance of the village in front of you, do you want to go forward and check? 】

oh? What event is this triggering?

  Years of game experience told him that this kind of plot is mostly beneficial, so Mu You hurriedly chose 'Yes'.

  【You go up to check. This hunter with a shotgun on his back seems to have been injured while hunting in the forest. His whole body is covered with wounds bitten by some kind of wild beast. He is bleeding profusely. He looks at you weakly and begs for help. your choice…】

  【Root him: There are many treasures on the hunter, and it is a good time to rob him while he is weak. 】

  【Heal him: Use your bandage to heal his injury, maybe he will appreciate you and give you some benefits. 】

  【Turn a blind eye: You walked into the village pretending you didn't see him, and let him die silently. 】

   "Root him!"

  Three options, Mu You decisively chose the first one.

  【Greedy eyes flashed in your eyes, and you chose to take advantage of the danger to rob the hunter. 】

  【The hunter was furious, he was on the verge of death, he turned back, jumped up and hacked you to death with an axe! 】

   "I'll go, Brother Hunter, I was wrong!"

  Mu You realized that he had really overestimated his combat power, even if he was a dying hunter, he couldn't imagine it.

   Backtracking Backtracking.

  【Time flies, you stand in front of the hunter again, this time, you choose...】

   "Heal him."

  Mu You chose the second option.

  Although healing the hunter will consume his own bandages, the current situation should trigger some kind of plot, let’s see if it’s worth it first.

  【You choose to heal the hunter with a bandage. 】

  【The bandage emits a faint white light, healing most of the hunter's wounds. The hunter survived, he is very grateful for your help, and decided to give you some benefits in return. Whether to accept? 】

I'm coming!

   Mu You was waiting for this moment, accept it decisively!

  【The hunter is a well-known hunting master and beast tamer in the village, and he is also proficient in long-range shooting skills. You can choose one of the following three spells in return for saving him. 】

  【A hundred shots and one hundred hits: The shooting spell, within a short time after it is released, your shooting accuracy of various long-range weapons is greatly improved. 】

  【Beast trap: Trap spell, consume wood or metal, create a hidden animal trap on the ground, and trap creatures in it when they pass by. 】

  【Animal Dialogue: Beast Taming Spell, after release, the animal has spirituality and can understand your commands. The higher the animal, the lower the success rate. 】

   "Spell!"

   Muyou surprise!

   Three options, all spells!

   And, look at the description, each effect is very powerful!

   Soon Mu You fell into a happy trouble, because he could only choose one of the three spells...

  Um, wait...

   Mu You suddenly remembered something.

  Why did he choose?

  Others may need to choose, but he sometimes has a pocket watch, can he have all of them?

  Spells are different from other physical rewards. Spells are a kind of memory.

  If it is a physical reward, after the time is reversed, the physical object will disappear.

   But memory, it was directly engraved in his mind, even if time went back, he would never forget it again, right?

  Of course, Mu You is not sure whether the game will allow him to take advantage of such an obvious loophole, so try it first.

  Mu You chose the third 'Animal Dialogue'.

   As the owner of a pet shop, there is no more practical magic than this!

  【You have learned 'animal dialogue'! 】

  The moment the text popped up, Mu You only felt that there was a complicated formula in his mind, which was obviously in a language he didn't know, but he could pronounce it proficiently like a native speaker.

   It was too late to savor the connotation of this mysterious spell, five seconds were fleeting, Mu You hurriedly pressed his pocket watch.

   Back in time, back to before the option.

   There are still those three options in front of me.

  At the same time, the spell memory in Mu You's mind has not disappeared!

   It's done!

   Mu You is overjoyed, he can actually get stuck with bugs!

  【Please choose one of the following three spells...】

   "Sorry, I want them all!"

   Mu You resolutely followed suit, and soon learned the other two spells.

  Feeling the three spells floating in his mind, Mu You was satisfied. It turns out that this is the most IMBA way to go back in time!

Keep going!

   I spent three precious spells for nothing, and the two lives I sacrificed before seem to be less distressed.

   And he has already arrived at the village in the game, there must be more novel events waiting for him to discover in the future!

  Muyou is now at the time when the enthusiasm for the game is at its highest, and he can't wait to click to continue the game, and the result...

  【Fool, you have run out of mobility today, and if you forcefully move in a state of fatigue, it may cause your body to dissipate. You'd better stop immediately, rest and recuperate, and continue on the road after your mobility recovers tomorrow. 】
