My players are so fierce

Chapter 242 241. A reckless man’s stupidity will always bring him more opponents.

The players set off back to the Scarlet Castle early the next morning. It would take two days and three nights to transport a large amount of supplies from here, which made the players madly complain about how hard-core and realistic the game was in this aspect.

You said it would be great if you opened a portal and let everyone return to the main city directly!

It’s not like we have to waste time on the road like now.

Fortunately, there are still some wandering gnolls along the way, so there is nothing to do. A few points can be used to pass the boring travel time.

However, those Wolfsbane cubs who were captured last night have been sent back to Scarlet Castle one step ahead of schedule.

Because the matter was so important, they were personally escorted by Hunting Baron Kudel. These guys were sent to the Blood Vulture Corridor before the first ray of dawn arrived.

Murphy and Tris got the news in advance.

But it was not the two of them who came to receive these prisoners, but the cold-faced commander of the Knights of the Blood Alliance in Transia, the Knight of the Silver Bow, Ms. Leonia Galanord Cappadocia.

Clearly, Murphy was up to a trick.

He did not intend to personally accuse the Wolfsbane Clan of colluding with the Jackals to subvert the Scarlet Castle to the Knights of the Blood Alliance. He knew that the truth would only make sense if the right person discovered it personally.

Miss Bow Knight is also happy to play the role of "torture officer" at this time.

Judging from the coldness radiating from this lady's body, she obviously has "opinions" on the Wolfsbane clan intervening in the situation in Transia in this way at this time, and she also talked about "torture" among the vampires. The art of blood torture, even the best blood torturer of the Blood Vulture clan, can only bow down in front of the arrogant descendant who can directly smell the sin.

As long as Lenia thought about it, these Wolfsbane captives in front of her would definitely even tell them honestly how many lovers their mother had.

Of course, this process will be accompanied by indescribable pain, which is the inevitable punishment for committing crimes and being exposed, but this is not what Lord Murphy needs to worry about now.

He is currently waiting in the Blood Eagle Corridor to welcome the eldest lady and her group who have returned from successfully completing their mission.

"Adele, there is a new blood rat gang in the sewers, and the leader is Dorothy. They have some abilities and may be of great use in the future, so they are under the control of your Shadow Intelligence Bureau."

Murphy put his hands behind his back and ordered to his vampire butler:

"Now there is a 'big job' in the hands of the Blood Rat Gang. I need you to take over immediately and be personally responsible for the next actions. Dorothy will introduce you to the specific situation."

"As you command, Master Murphy."

Mrs. Adele nodded, and then quickly disappeared into the shadows of the corridor.

As Transia's first intelligence director, she occasionally guest-starred as Lord Murphy's housekeeper. She was always busy with a lot of things. This trip with the eldest lady to West Corridor was regarded as "administrative leave" for her. "Yes.

She should probably thank the unknown Lady Cecilia for training her over the past many years, so that she has long been accustomed to the identity and thinking of an outstanding lieutenant to assist the superiors in their actions.

"Count Andrei, you and your servants can rest in the cloister for a few days, but there are still important tasks entrusted to you next."

Murphy then said to the Earl of White Mountain, whose status in today's Transia is quite "delicate":

"In addition, my consul is negotiating aid with officials from Nordtov's Ministry of Finance in Bataxin City. I heard Miriam report that the remaining members of the White Mountain Faction of the Thorn Clan will also arrive in Bataxin City in the near future. .

As their leader, I think you should go and greet them yourself.

I will designate an 'embassy area' for you midnight exiles in the Blood Vulture Corridor. When my city reaches a certain scale, I will also build a diplomatic residence for you that is not exquisite but is definitely sufficient. . "

"Thank you for the reminder, Count Murphy. This matter is very important to me."

Andre thanked Murphy with impeccable royal etiquette, and said to Murphy with a hint of "gratitude" that may or may not have been present:

"At the same time, I would also like to thank the Blood Eagle Clan for accepting us, a group of losers who have nowhere to go, during this precarious time for us."

"You're welcome."

Murphy waved his hand and replied in a gentle and distant tone:

"In the face of a situation like the Black Disaster, everyone should work together for a win-win situation. What's more, the alliance formed by Grand Duke Shani and Grand Duke Tris is enough for us to treat each other as 'brothers' at this moment. What I mean is that these words are out of context. There is no need to say more.

Be prepared.

The brothers Blood Eagle and Thorn will face a common enemy next. You will know the specific actions soon, and I am also looking forward to your performance on the battlefield. "

Earl Baishan nodded and left the corridor entrance with his servants.

Needless to say, the dozen vampires headed by "Scarlet Widow" Mary who followed Femis all had their own responsibilities in the Scarlet Castle, and they did not dare to do anything in front of the increasingly authoritative Murphy. escape.

There was no need for the Governor's orders at all, these guys just took the initiative to disperse and do their work.

So only Murphy and Femis were left at the entrance of the corridor. Murphy made a "please" gesture, Femis nodded and went first, and Murphy followed half a body behind.

"I must report to you that Andre behaved very appropriately during this trip."

The eldest lady said softly to Murphy:

"Unfortunately, I didn't find an opportunity to be exploited throughout the whole process. He is very smart, he knows his situation so he doesn't overstep anything, just like a cunning little mouse."

"It doesn't matter, we will seize the opportunity sooner or later, we can wait patiently for a long time, and Mr. Andre, who is walking on thin ice, only needs to make one mistake to fall into despair. The advantage is on our side!

What's more, given the current situation, these Yankee exiles living under someone else's roof are no longer a big problem. "

Murphy sighed and told Femis what he had just learned about the peace between the Wolfsbane clan and the local gnolls.

The eldest lady's expression after hearing this was quite wonderful.

She couldn't help but asked:

"So has Old Edward lost his mind and gone crazy? Why would he choose to cooperate with the Jackals at this juncture? And he is secretly supporting a dangerous Jackal warlord? Isn't he afraid that Lord Pa Ying will come in person to cause trouble?"

"According to Tris, this may be a solo attack by an internal faction of the Wolfsbane clan, just like the foolish actions of Andre's White Mountain faction in Bataxin City."

Murphy replied in a cautious tone:

"I think Tris's guess is 80% correct, and this matter has nothing to do with old Edward.

However, there is still a possibility that Lord Wolfsbane may have known all this from beginning to end, but he was obviously choosing to play dumb. After all, whether the Gray Claw faction succeeded in destroying us alone, or his restless subordinates were eliminated, he would have a problem. A harvest that satisfied him.

Standard tactics of blocking both ends.

But this is a hot potato for us, and we don’t even want to take it now.

But the good news is that my warriors and the Cadman People's Army have come to the end of the cleanup of the gnolls in the Dark Baron, and they have achieved an undisputed victory!

They will then spend a day or two preparing themselves again.

After the witch hunters clear out the gnoll scourge in the Barony of Moreland, I will lead my army into your territory, and we will compete with the ambitious gnoll warlord in the hills of Undermar.

The battle begins and the decisive battle begins!

We cannot fight a war of attrition with them, and in this battle, you will be the absolute core. "

"Um?"

Femis looked at Murphy in surprise and said:

"I know that is my territory, but Murphy, I don't even have a decent armed blood servant under my command, and I can't even talk about the slightest control over the Under Armor Hills. But you say that I am the core of the battle. I am a little helpless. understand."

"You don't have to try to understand, because we have a new plan this time."

Murphy smiled mysteriously.

He reached out and pushed open the door of Tris's office. When Femis walked in, he saw the Duke of Blood Vulture, who always liked fishing, concentrating on studying a seemingly complex psychic model.

The beating scarlet light spots were suspended in front of her, forming miniature maps of psychic spells nested one after another. It looked like she was solving a super difficult geometry problem.

Tris would frown as she tried to reorganize and complete the creation of a new psychic spell from these complex spell mappings.

This is a completely unimaginable operation for ordinary psionicists, but for a psionic master like Tris, it is only a slightly "difficult" subject.

how to say?

Anyway, after Tris regained her strength, Murphy never saw Tris use ordinary psychic skills in several battles. All the skills used by the Blood Vulture Archduke were her "original" fighting style.

Although most of them are based on minor modifications to ordinary psychic powers, the ability to create a unique skill tree for yourself based on your own fighting style is generally called a "super genius"!

Murphy watched all this with satisfaction. He felt that his "girlfriend" was perfect except for being too "mature" due to her age.

And Femis's eyes widened.

She looked at Tris's mysterious operations in front of her. As a high-level psionicist, she could only find some ideas and tracks from those strange operations. She could barely see that the purpose of this ultra-complex technique was Break some kind of "isolation".

"I heard that there is a hard condition in the promotion assessment of the psionic masters in the Tower of Rings, that is, the high-level psionic masters must complete the development of a new psionic power as a way for them to dedicate themselves to the mysteries of psionic power and pray for more power and wisdom. 'sacrifice'."

Murphy stood behind Femis.

He stretched out his hands and put them on the shoulders of the short Femis. This scene was very similar to the way brothers and sisters get along. He said to the dumbfounded eldest lady:

"Look! The subject you need to complete is right in front of you, and Tris will serve as a 'special instructor' to guide you in completing this spiritual mystery that belongs only to you. The moment it is released for the first time in this world, you also He is now qualified to proudly call himself a 'Psionic Master'.

Oh, right.

I have given a name to this psychic mystery that is about to be born.

Tris and I agreed that we should call this yet-to-be-born legion-level psychic spell ‘Cataclysm’!

If you think this name is too serious, then we’ll use something more playful.”

The vampire lord grinned. Under Tris' curled gaze, he stared at the complicated psychic models that he couldn't understand at all, and said:

"We can call it 'Youth Mini Luxury Edition Star Boundary Tearing Technique'."

"Well, let's keep calling it 'Catastrophe'."

Femis said with twitching eyes:

"The cynical and joyful style of the second title may be a little too early for a traditional vampire like me, but I guess your warriors will definitely like its dangerous and playful naming method.

They are always attracted to everything that is 'abnormal'.

I'll do my best to complete this mystery, but there's something I need to report to you and Tris, Murphy.

About my discovery in the County of Siko"

"Well, this matter can be put aside later."

Murphy said goodbye politely to the two ladies who were about to get busy. He shook his head and said:

"The rightful owner of the Xiko Territory has not yet appeared. It would be too ugly for us to discuss how to occupy that land. After we have solved the war in the Earl of Under Armor first, we can talk about this as a victor." Not too late.

Therefore, I, an unlearned summoner, will not disturb these two super academics as they delve into the mysterious mysteries of psychic energy.

See you later. "

——

"That's how it is, Your Majesty."

Thirty minutes later, in a dark room in the Blood Eagle Corridor.

Ms. Leonia, who had just completed the torture, was communicating remotely with her immediate superior, the third knight lord of the Blood Alliance Knights, "Arrow of Punishment" Yvette Liad Cappadocia, through a blood-colored crystal. report.

She told her lord all the information she had tortured from the Wolfsbane prisoner, and after a few seconds, a lazy and hoarse woman's voice came out of the blood crystal.

"So, you are sure that you have evidence that the Gray Claw faction of the Wolfsbane Clan is colluding with the Gnolls? Do you know what this means?"

"Yes! Your Excellency."

Leonia replied sternly:

"This kind of behavior should be despised in normal times, not to mention the moment when the black disaster is approaching. This can already be called a 'rebellion on the battlefield'! The leader of the Wolfsbane faction actually fought against the enemies of order in order to eliminate the remnants of the Blood Vultures. To make peace, they must be severely punished.

And I am very willing to complete this punishment in the name of the Lord and the Blood Alliance clan! "

"So, do you need me to send troops to support you? You currently only have thirty reserve knights and an equal number of blood followers. Facing an established warlord, it is difficult for these people to be of any use."

The third lord opposite yawned in an imaginative way, and she said in a breath with a slightly weird rhythm:

"But I don't have many knights that I can mobilize right now. The situation in the Dark Mountains near the outer defense area has begun to deteriorate. Lenia, you know the responsibilities we shoulder and the work we do should work harder!

Didn't you eat? You pathetic guy. "

"."

Hearing the scolding, Leonia, who tried to maintain her seriousness, couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Of course she knew what her lord was doing.

Just as Tris complained that the three knight lords of the Blood Alliance Knights were all lunatics, the loyal knights of the bow had to admit that Grand Duke Tris's complaints in this regard were completely correct.

Lord Palano's pursuit of "pure love" regardless of occasion is at best inappropriate, but the problem of the corrupt personal life style of the third lord opposite is obviously more serious. It has become so serious that their subordinates have to fight for the third lord. To the point of covering up.

And the most terrifying thing is that the amorous third lord will not only look for handsome men, she will not let go of beautiful women. She is simply ruthless when it comes to her appetite.

However, considering the "origin" of the third lord, this "bad habit" is not surprising.

After all, the third lord of the Blood Alliance Knights is a shadow elf. He is recognized by all the forces on this continent as the most "playful" race, no one! Yvette is already considered a "conservative" among the shadow elves. At least she only "plays" with humanoid creatures that she approves of.

Therefore, for Leonia herself, being able to come to Scarlet Castle for a "business trip" at this time is not just about relaxing.

She felt like she could almost "escape from the devil's cave" with a stopwatch stuck on.

The reason why I say this is because she is already one of the few people under the third lord who has not succumbed to "sexual harassment in the workplace", but the problem is that as a shadow elf, the third lord has no intention of "severely humiliating" someone on certain occasions. "She, the once noble moon elf, is obviously very interested."

Oh, I feel embarrassed just saying it.

"I know that you are facing a lot of battle pressure at this time, so I am not asking you to send troops to support our battle in Transia. I am just asking you for permission to officially participate in the cleansing war currently being carried out by the Blood Vulture Clan. .”

Leonia tried her best to ignore those strange "voice-overs" and said seriously to her direct lord:

"My reserve knights and I will participate in the punishment of the Wolfsbane clan as a force under Lord Murphy, and I will temporarily hand over the command to Lord Murphy."

"That's right!"

Ms. Yvette's satisfied voice came from the blood crystal. She said softly:

"But pay attention to safety and don't cause unnecessary attrition. In addition, I need you to come back 'in person' in a few days to report on your work. I also prepared a very 'beautiful' dress for you."

"Sir! This is complete sexual harassment in the workplace, and Lord Paying will punish you for it! And last year alone, you were punished 245 times for this problem!

I think even if you are a shadow elf with bad character, you should learn a lesson from those whips. "

"Wouldn't that be better? Thinking of the Lord's majestic and handsome appearance and demeanor makes me feel hot all over.

Then think of his punishment.

Ah, let the hot whip come down with stinging pain. The more intense the pain, the more wonderful pleasure it will bring. It is best to be executed by the Lord himself. No, it’s just how I feel.”

"Snapped"

When the third lord's voice became louder and sharper, Blood Crystal Stone's communication was decisively hung up by the expressionless Leonia in time.

She felt that if she continued to listen to it, she would suffer irreversible "mental pollution."

"Obviously he is as cruel and cold as death on the battlefield, why is he so corrupt in private? Are the rumors true?"

The silver bow knight put away his blood crystal stone and couldn't help complaining in his heart:

"It is said that Lord Paying's ancient bloodline is too powerful, causing the descendants he personally transformed to be unable to withstand the strengthening of power from the source of the blood clan, and any blood descendant who accepts the Lord's first embrace will suffer from various diseases. Weird habits.

All three knight lords are like this.

So, is this the price for gaining power?

It feels really scary. "

Thinking of the disgraceful rumors about the superior, the stern-faced arch knight pushed open the door of this secret room.

As expected, Lord Murphy was waiting for her outside the door.

Through the view that opened through the crack in the door, Murphy could see several Wolfsbane prisoners who had turned into strange glass-like stone statues in the darkness. This was the first time he had seen "Eternal Silence" in this unique form.

“Their awakened sin burned their will, burned all their vitality from the inside out, and ushered in eternal silence in extreme pain.

This is the unique power of the Prideborn.

It sounds very similar to the emotional ignition of the Thorn clan, but the two are not the same thing. We can only use it on people who are guilty, and there is a limit on the number of times within a certain period of time. It is very convenient for torture, but in battle The level is not as effective as the talent of the Thorn Clan. "

Leonia explained, and then said to Murphy in a knightly manner:

“Wolfsbane’s sin has been confirmed!

In the name of this unforgivable betrayal, the reserve knights under the third lord of the Blood Alliance Knights applied to join the disciplinary war against the gnolls and the Wolfsbane clan! Please allow me, Lord Murphy. "
