• Less than twenty minutes later, fishmen attacked again with sea turtles and spellcasting fishman mages, whose attributes shocked Mu You.

Mu You and the soldiers endured a Fishman assault complicated by contagious plague, then learned the attacks were being drawn by an Ancient Altar beyond the gate. He agreed to join an elite mission to the swamp and received equipment and a teleportation mark before heading out.

• Mu You warned Zhang Yang that Murloc Voodoo Priests could spread a deadly plague, but the warning reached the defensive lines too late to prevent widespread infections and casualties.

• Flowers in the Mist warned the group that a flock of Swamp Wyverns was approaching, and the ensuing battle overwhelmed the players with stacking poison and repeated deaths.
• A second, larger flock approached, forcing the leaders to split the group into small teams; Mu You had already teleported away alone.
• Mu You switched to the Vampire Skin, summoned Warhawk and other creatures, restored his Magic Power, and hunted monsters while making his way north.
• Mu You spotted a hidden observer among the monsters, lured him closer, then used the Chain Claw, Throat-Sealing Curse, and Cripple to disable him.
• Mu You teleported out of the encirclement with the captive, made him drink a sleeping potion, and put him in his backpack before seeking a secluded place for the Secret Art Meeting.

• The Black-Robed Man said he targeted Mu You because Mu You had killed Werewolf and taken the Chain Claw, which the man claimed had belonged to him.

Mu You stalled the Black-Robed Man and escaped through the Mystic Arts Association’s Teleportation Array to attend the Secret Art Meeting. There, he revealed the Illuminati and Ten Commandments Society’s role in the Sea Tribe Invasion and asked four members to lend him their secret arts.

He ended by suggesting that players seeking a route to the Imperial Capital gather in nearby riverside or coastal cities, though he could not yet guarantee passage.
