My players are so fierce

Chapter 680 679. Enshrinement of the Witch - Additional updates with monthly tickets [910]

After the boss of the development team temporarily went offline, Xiao Fei, a member of the test team who had always been considered not to work well, finally fulfilled his responsibilities.

Three hours after the server suddenly shut down, an official post was posted on the forum. This time the development team finally sincerely explained the cause and solution of the incident:

[Instructions for the 51st online update of "Real World":

1. The main cause of the server shutdown problem has been investigated by the development team. The cause is that a special BUG about the 'two forms of jackal' hidden in the character modeling program was triggered during the server operation, triggering a large-scale data Redundancy causes the main framework of the program to crash.

At present, the development team has temporarily sealed the gnoll race selection function and is expected to reopen it in 24 hours!

In order to compensate players, the development team decided to provide all players with two legendary appearances for free, "Frederick, the Conqueror of the World" and "Hogg, the Original Son, the Wise Wolf" based on the original racial appearance settings of the Jackals.

Please note!

This compensation event will expire after thirty days.

2. Explanation on the loss of player equipment during the internal testing phase.

First of all, the development team must make it clear to players that the loss of equipment due to death is one of the advanced gameplay features of this game. The development team originally planned to test this feature in the next game stage, but problems occurred due to a sudden server shutdown.

After urgent consultations with the strategy team, the development team decided to launch the gameplay mechanism that was originally scheduled to be released after the Black Disaster ended!

The following is the functional description of the "Real World·Map Layering Mechanism":

In order to achieve the goal of 100% real game experience, the development team will launch a new map mechanism after this online update. All map areas in the entire world will be divided into three categories: 'High Security', 'Low Security' and 'Chaos' grade.

The important areas of Transia and each kingdom are "high security areas".

When a battle occurs in this area, even if the player dies, his equipment and property will be properly protected by various forces.

It is highly recommended for novice players to play in this area.

The border areas between Transia and each kingdom are "low security zones".

When a battle occurs in this area, players have a small chance of losing their equipment and property after death, but the various forces in this area will fully assist players in recovering their losses.

It is recommended that players of Black Iron level and above are active in this area and be alert for accidents at all times.

Areas without any sovereign power, such as the Dark Mountains, Ice Bay, and Sea of ​​Mist, are all "chaos zones."

When a battle occurs in this area, players have a high probability of losing all their equipment and property after death. Due to the lack of effective checks and balances in this area, players need to rely on their own wisdom and strength to recover when encountering such a situation. own loss.

But the development team hereby solemnly reminds you!

All the equipment and properties that have been generated in "Real World" will never disappear out of thin air! Thieves and robbers will definitely leave clues after they do bad things. Players can eventually recover their losses as long as they persevere.

In addition, the development team will also open the 'Prophecy and Lost Property Tracking' service of the 'Blind Prophet' Ms. Villanse. When players who have suffered losses ask for help, Ms. Villanse will be happy to use her astonishing prophecy to help players. provide help.

But please note that as a powerful shadow elf, Ms. Villanse believes in the principle of ‘fair trade’!

Therefore, players must bring enough sincere sacrifices when seeking her help, or be prepared to receive some very difficult reward tasks from Ms. Villanse.

3. Compensation plan for player losses caused by server downtime:

After emergency consultations, the development team and the testing team decided to fully compensate for the losses caused by this unplanned downtime. If players do not intend to use Ms. Villanse's 'lost property tracking' service, they can go to the Scarlet Castle Finance Department. , and receive gold coin compensation based on the estimated value of the lost equipment.

In addition, the development team enthusiastically helped these players who suffered losses develop a new task chain called ‘Mejeva Secrets Group’.

Interested players can go to the Adventurer Guild's station at the Maginot Line and look for President Natalie to trigger this task. After the task is completed, the player will obtain the secret treasure of Medjeva City.

Please note!

This task can only be taken by players who have lost equipment due to server outage, and although this task is highly rewarding, the difficulty is uncertain. 】

Such a statement was posted on the forum, which naturally triggered a heated discussion among players.

On the one hand, this bastard's "Real World" development team is so proficient in the art of "turning bad things into good things" that they managed to completely complete the map system settings through a work mistake, and they did it in a decent way. .

Especially when EVE players saw the familiar high-security and low-security zone settings, they all remembered the miserable scene when their poor ore ship was exploded, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

On the other hand, the development team does have sincerity.

It is not a simple and boring compensation for lost items, but three solutions are given.

Players who are unconvinced can ask Villanse to predict who owns their losses, and then go and get them back with their own hands!

Players who don’t have so many thoughts about killing and killing can directly exchange their losses.

The last option is obviously a trick played by the development team, saying that there is a secret ahead. Which player can resist this temptation?

While the fools were still thinking about how to choose one of the three options, the little clever guys quickly tasted some strange ideas from the development team's statement.

"Holy crap! Choose any one! I want all three!"

Brother Meow Meow on the forum is noisily expressing his thoughts:

“They didn’t say you can only choose one of the three routes!

First, he gathered the brothers who had suffered losses to get the Shadow Elf secret treasure, and then asked Ms. Villanse to divine the location of his lost equipment. Everyone went to grab it back along the way and teach those damn jackals a lesson.

In the end, if you really can't get it back, go to Scarlet Castle to redeem it.

Tsk tsk, one fish and three meals!

This may be a beautiful thing. "

"Damn it, man! This idea is awesome!"

Tata Kai and Yi Zimo Tata Kai below immediately expressed their admiration. The armors that these two unlucky guys changed from Black Flame Pass exploded before they were warmed up. This was the time when they were heartbroken and sad when they saw Brother Meow Meow. The thought of having one fish and three meals suddenly made me excited.

But someone soon discovered a problem.

The gentle and graceful Mrs. Shui: [Wait! Brother Miao Miao, you didn't suffer any losses at all. Weren't you picking things up at the quartermaster when you were disconnected? My husband saw it with his own eyes! You simply can't take on this mission. 】

Meow Meow King: [Who said I didn’t lose anything! Mrs. Shui, you can't talk nonsense. I clearly 'lent' some of my unused equipment to Mengxin. Many people can testify to this!

Now that the newbies have lost their equipment, don’t I also lose it?

Of course I can take the mission!

Moreover, President Natalie has triggered a quest line to retrieve the "Holy Artifact of Avalon: Emerald Wind", which only members of the Church of Avalon can take.

Why don't you come quickly? 】

The gentle and graceful Mrs. Shui: [? ! Wait for me, come over now! I suddenly remembered that I seemed to have lent some equipment to Brother Belly. The unfortunate guy had lost it after following a group of people while exploring the kobold crypt.

Hey, I can go find the secret cache too.

Great! 】

Ashina Female Swordsman: [Tsk, tsk, tsk, someone is a bad learner, but I won’t say who it is, and my idiot mother lost all the weapons I lent her, so I have to find justice for her. 】

Frostfang Claw: [Ms. Dorothy told me that this time is a real big secret! Godslayers come quickly. 】

So the little players, who were easy to fool, immediately put aside their dissatisfaction and rushed to trigger the mission, allowing Villanse, who was preparing to travel far, to quickly gather an expedition team of 500 people.

A small part of them are unlucky people who suffered losses due to server downtime, and most of them are the team members of the unlucky people.

This is an obvious bug caused by task sharing through the teaming mechanism, but the development team turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it. It’s not that the remaining players didn’t want to come, mainly because the Splitclaw clan launched another attack. , Black Flame Pass now needs people to defend. They were recruited by Lord Heather and couldn't get away for a while.

Even if this matter is over.

But Murphy encountered a little "trouble" here.

"Explain it to me clearly! What is 'power transfer'?"

In the living area of ​​the Swamp Exhibition Hall, Murphy, who had changed into a casual robe, stared weakly at Tris who was preparing an evil ritual in front of him.

He said in a deep voice:

"You said you can transfer the power of your ancestors to me? What does this mean?"

"Don't worry, it's not a complete transfer. It's just a 'copy' of the power I have and handing it over to you. I will become weaker because of it, but considering that my rank is much higher than yours, this kind of weakness does not matter. It won’t affect my fighting ability.”

Trish explained:

"This spell is an evil spell I discovered from the wave fish people when I traveled to the mainland.

Those guys will use this method to create a 'Wave Destroyer' for their tribe. Each of their members will be engraved with such evil runes before fighting. In this way, when a fishman dies, its power will be Transfer to other fishmen.

Until there are only one or two super powerful bastards left in the end.

Wave fish people are very capable of giving birth. Those guys lay eggs and can give birth to many more children than kobolds. Unfortunately, their combat effectiveness is generally poor, but their civilization system is more advanced than that of kobolds. "

"This is evil magic, Tris. I know you care about me, but there is no need to use this method."

Murphy shook his head and said:

"You will put me in spiritual debt."

"You owe me a lot of things, Murphy, not less than this one. Of course, I also owe you a lot of things."

Tris snorted and started the ritual without giving Murphy a chance to refuse.

Black smoke poured out from various lit items, and seemed to take away part of the power in Cuisi's body. Then, under Cuisi's control, the black smoke was gathered together to form a black, round pearl. .

This must be very painful and makes Tris's cheeks turn pale, but as she said, with the power of the Golden One, such a little pain will not cause long-term damage.

Maybe all it takes is a nap to replenish the lost energy.

She handed the black pearl to Murphy and motioned for him to eat it.

Murphy couldn't refuse the kindness. He took it and put it in his hand to start the item identification:

Name: Power Transfer·Eternal One

Grade: Disposable consumables

Effect: Transfer Tris's ancestral power [Eternal One] into the body of the user. After the transfer is completed, Tris's ancestral power will be weakened to its original form, and the user will gain the ability of the Immortal, which is also the original form. state.

Item Description:

[The side effects of this thing are much greater than you think. Tris relied on it to survive under Salokdar's plot. This wave of witches will give you the means to save their lives.

Beauty is the hardest thing to accept, my poor Alpha.

By the way, considering that you are likely to get something tonight, I suggest you go to the family planning supplies dispenser to get a 'safety kit' before doing anything. 】

"That's enough."

Murphy was a little numb at the damn implication.

He glanced at Tris, who was resting on the chair in front of him, and swallowed the black pearl in his hand with his eyes closed.

This thing melts in the mouth and has no taste, but when Murphy absorbs the power, he can hear some sounds from the waves, and there seems to be phantom sounds ringing in his ears.

Without him needing to react, the Omega Purification Program was activated.

Just one contact completely dispelled the evil thoughts that tried to invade Murphy's consciousness through this ritual.

This is also the reason why Tris dares to use this evil ritual to transfer power to Murphy. Only Murphy on this continent has the ability to be completely unaffected by the evil ritual.

The next moment, a line of prompts popped up in front of Murphy's eyes:

"Power is being received! The power of the ancestors, the Eternal One, has been obtained!

A vampire with this ancestral power will remain young forever and will not grow old until the eternity comes.

The upper limit of the vampire's health with this ancestral power is permanently increased by 30%. When suffering fatal damage, he will not die immediately, but he will suffer the negative status of slipping in rank and dissipating power.

Before this state disappears, if you encounter another fatal injury, you will enter eternal silence.

hint!

The Ancestral Power, The Eternal, has been discovered to be a necessary component of the Golden Law of Time, and it resonates wonderfully with the power that Manis the Infinite bestows upon you.

The duration of Celestial Acceleration and Astral Slow is increased to 30 seconds, and the cooldown is reduced to 8 hours.

The duration of Time Exile is extended to 10 minutes, and energy consumption is reduced by 30%.

hint!

Ancestral Power·Eternal is a passive skill that cannot be effective through practice, but it can be strengthened by tapping into the vampire's ancestral power. "

"You gave me your most important power, Tris."

After Murphy received the gift of immortality, his blood bar soared by 30%, which relieved some of the weakness in his body.

He stood up, walked to Tris, and raised the other person's charming face. He saw Tris's unconcealed exhaustion and suppressed pain.

The side effects of this ritual are definitely huge.

"I just"

Tris whispered:

"I almost lost you, Murphy. It turns out that the moment you fell, my already riddled heart was broken. I almost couldn't suppress the demon in my heart, and almost let her appear again. .

It’s not that you need me, I need you too.

The series of bad things Luna has done have left me mentally and physically exhausted.

I was really a failure in the first half of my life. Not only did I almost cheat myself to death, I was also an unqualified elder.

Luna is the demon I created myself, and I tried to turn her into another Scarlet Witch.

My upbringing turned out to be too successful.

I don't want you to suffer the same outcome. "

"What else can I say? It seems I'm not the only one in the Blood Eagle Clan who has psychological problems."

He hugged Tris, and the Grand Duke also stretched out his arms to hug him, as if hugging something lost and found. She hugged her tightly, for fear that Murphy would suddenly leave this world quietly like those foreigners.

Murphy sensed this emotion, and he guessed that Tris might have discovered the "truth" about him.

But she would never say it.

This is a secret that belongs to both of them.

"You see, after experiencing death, even if it was only for a moment or two, I realized that the two of us have been struggling with some weird things."

Murphy kissed Tris's earlobe and said softly:

"I think we should probably take the final step, what do you think?"

"You madman, are you thinking about doing bad things just after you came to life?"

Tris pushed Murphy away in disgust.

She complained:

"So what has death taught you? Carpe diem?"

"It taught me to cherish the people in front of me, and it also taught me that men should take the initiative."

Murphy took Tris's finger and pulled her up from the chair with a slight force, but the next second, the Scarlet Witch turned around lightly and pushed Murphy back to the chair.

She reached out and untied her clothes, and sat on Murphy with a very strong posture. She stared into those eyes.

she says:

"Once you do something, you can't go back, and my troubles will become your troubles."

"When I came back after being rescued, and when you were rescued by me, we were already tied together. Isn't it a little too late to say this now?"

Murphy stretched out his arms to hold Tris's neck and pulled the face as charming as a midnight rose towards him.

When the two kissed each other, it was like sparks rising up, detonating the gasoline called love in an instant, and the next instant, a fire broke out.

Tris's slight cry of pain and Murphy's heavy breathing were intertwined, like a small boat sailing on the waves, being lifted up into the air and then falling down by the waves. You don't know at which moment the boat will be destroyed. People die.

"Call my name"

He looked at the Grand Duke in front of him, swaying like a dancer, and saw the scar in the dim bedroom. He didn't feel that this mark of the past had damaged Tris's beauty.

He reached out his hand and touched the scar.

This movement made Tris tremble, and then Murphy held her neck and pulled her over. After a passionate kiss that made even vampires feel suffocated, he whispered something in Tris's ear.

"Murphy."

Tris responded immediately.

She raised her head and bit Murphy's neck, just like the scene of a vampire's first embrace. She gasped and said:

"You're my Murphy!"

"So good."
