467: Chapter 282: Mysterious Thief’s Appointnt Letter_3 467: Chapter 282: Mysterious Thief’s Appointnt Letter_3 Mu You went to the dining table and brought back the KFC bucket that the little girl had left from last night, ward it up in the microwave, then sent it into the ga through his ring.

“You suddenly pull out a bucket of hot food.

The rich aroma spreads, causing the drool of the young man in the adjacent cell to drip, his stomach to grumble, and he anxiously begs you for food.”

“You ‘reluctantly’ tell him that this is your own stock of food.”

“The young man says he’s willing to give up ten years of his life in exchange for this food!”

Mu You thought to himself: This young lad really is the naive son of a rich landlord.

He is willing to spend ten years of his life for a bucket of KFC without even blinking, deal!

“You agree to his trade offer, lifespan 10.”

“The young man receives the food and begins to eat eagerly.

The taste is so good that he is moved to tears, claiming that he’s never had anything so delicious.”

He was truly starved…

Mu You shakes his head amusingly.

The prison is run by octopuses, making communication impossible.

Even if he were rich, there’s no way for him to bribe his way out.

“You suddenly feel the temperature around you start to rise, and the air in the cell becos uncomfortably hot.”

“With the arrival of the day, under the curse of the vampire skin, you start to feel drowsy.”

“Oh?”

A new notification pops up at this point, and Mu You quickly checks the ti.

It’s 5 AM on Earth right now, and with the two-hour ti difference in the ga, that makes it 7 AM.

Apparently, it’s considered dayti, and the significant day-night temperature difference of the Fourth Level of the prison is starting to show.

“Ti to leave…”

With daylight coming, Mu You plans to leave the prison and complete his daily tasks with the Elf Clan.

He attempts to set up a Teleportation Array inside the cell, but a warning imdiately pops up.

“Warning, this area is under the Octopus King’s surveillance.

Any deployed Teleportation Arrays will be detected and may have unforeseen consequences.

Do you still wish to deploy the Teleportation Array?”

“No.”

Mu You sighed.

It seems that he cannot arbitrarily set up a Teleportation Array.

“You switch to your Cultist skin.”

“You unlock the cell door and walk out of the main cell door.”

“The mont you leave the cell, the sweltering air hits you imdiately.

Your skin feels burning hot, as if there were heated knives constantly cutting across your face.

The pain is intense.”

“Under the high temperature, your HP begins to slowly deplete…”

“That was fast…”

It’s just the beginning of the day, and the temperature has already risen to this level.

He could already imagine the intense heat at high noon.

Anyone who dares to wander around this fourth level at that ti is sure to be burnt to a crisp in a matter of seconds.

While the temperature is still manageable, Mu You quickly has his character return to the Old Elf’s cavern.

Upon entering the cavern, the temperature imdiately returns to normal.

Mu You finds an open space and releases a Dark Transfer.

This ti there isn’t a warning, and the Teleportation Array is set down smoothly.

Mu You directly teleports to the Elf Forest, rides the Gryphon to complete his patrol quest, then leaves an anonymous note near the training hall.

It vaguely ntions a group of Elf Clan mbers who disappeared in the Evil Spirit Sea Area seven hundred years ago, and contains so information about the Octopus King and the Underwater Prison.

That should be enough to stir up so discussions.

By now, it was broad daylight and the pet shop was starting its day of business.

Busy until 3 PM, Mu You logs back into the ga, and teleports back to the Underwater Prison.

Considering the ti difference, it should be 5 PM in the Evil Spirit Sea Area by now, and the scorching temperature of the Fourth Level should be over.

“You enter the Fourth Level of the prison using the cavern.”

“Here’s temperature remains a bit sweltering, but it’s already at a level that the human body can withstand.”

As expected, the temperature has returned to normal, and there is a two-hour period of comfortable temperature ahead.

Mu You hurries back to the chubby kid’s cell.

“You have reentered Cell No.

4302.”

“The chubby young man in the adjacent cell is overjoyed to see you, eagerly asking if you’ve brought him more food.”

Mu You had figured the chubby kid would be hungry again.

He had already bought a KFC bucket in advance, but he didn’t rush to give it to him.

Instead, he asked.

“You ask him how he managed to survive on just one bowl of prison food a day with such a big appetite.”

“Upon hearing your question, the young man doesn’t give it much thought and truthfully tells you: before he was imprisoned, his father was afraid that he would starve, so he gave him a ‘Hunger Gem.’ This is a rare and valuable gem, possessing it can significantly alleviate hunger, thus allowing him to survive.”

Mu You was stunned, there’s actually a gem that staves off hunger?

If it’s true, he’s quite interested in this gem.

His vampire skin inherited the Gluttonous Curse, and if he had this gem, it could probably directly counter the curse.

“The young man seems to have noticed your interest in his Hunger Gem.

He very generously offers to give you the gem if you can provide him with two servings of the previous food, morning and night, every day until his release date!”

A promising lad indeed!

Mu You nodded approvingly.

The chubby kid looked dull, but he sure was sharp.

“You pass a bucket of aromatic food to him, and he, true to his word, imdiately gives you a gem.”

“You obtained a ‘Hunger Gem’ × 1.”

A new gem in hand, but before Mu You could check out its effects, another notification imdiately pops up.

“You have received a ‘Thief’s Notice.’

“The Phantom Thief Valen Justin has taken an interest in your newly acquired gem.

He will arrive near you in one hour and will attempt to steal the gem for 30 minutes.

During this period, the gem cannot be bound, cannot be transferred to another realm, can’t be stored in any space items, and the Phantom Thief Valen Justin can know the location of the gem at any ti.

If he fails to steal it within 30 minutes, the attempt is considered a failure.”
