My players are so fierce

Chapter 956 955. Night in the Shadow

Nash's persuasion to surrender was a great success. When Adele, Lisa and the members of the Silver Moon Group entered the valley under the guidance of signal flares, what they saw was a group of gnolls stacking weapons and protective gear together. scene.

Those violent men who gave up the fight would still stare at them with fierce eyes, but no one would step forward to provoke them.

After putting down their weapons, more Jackal soldiers sat by the rocks not far away. They showed very tired postures. Some had already laid down and fell asleep, while others were whispering to comfort the frightened cubs. .

They told the cubs that they would go home soon, which made the cubs who were ignorant of the world cheer.

They couldn't understand why they had to leave their hometown and cross a small half of the dark mountain range to come to this strange place. They also didn't understand why they had to return to their hometown again after doing nothing. Their minds couldn't think about such complex problems, but they could return. Home is always a good thing.

We have had enough of being hungry and frightened here.

Of course, there are some gnolls who don't believe in the integrity of humans and vampires, but in the face of the large-scale spread of the "spiritual plague", they can't recruit more fellow travelers even if they want to resist.

Even the most vigilant Adele was convinced that they were no longer a threat after seeing the weird postures of these jackals.

But how to deal with such a large number of captives is indeed a problem. Although Governor Murphy has reached an agreement with the Wise Wolf and will send these old and weak women and children to the Creation Plains, the Jackals are currently suffering from malnutrition and spiritual depression. If we really force them to go on the road, less than half of them will die on the road.

Regarding this issue, Hogg is still thinking of a solution.

Before it comes up with a feasible plan, these prisoners will be temporarily arranged near Fort Courage. Therefore, the first thing they do after surrender is to build themselves a large enough prisoner of war camp. Fortunately, this prisoner of war camp is not The civilized camp needs to pay for maintenance, and Murphy does not have to worry about making countries hostile to each other or even war due to cost issues.

"The soldiers under your command have all participated in this black disaster. Their hands are stained with blood, so they will be handed over to the Blood Claw clan and taken into the filthy swamp."

At this time, Adele, on behalf of Governor Murphy, conveyed the order for the disposal of the prisoners to Governor Hass. She said seriously:

"Your soldiers need to help the Bloodclaw clan build at least five towns in the Filthy Swamp before their war crimes can be paid off. At that time, they will be sent back to the Gnoll Kingdom according to the agreement between the two parties.

The old and weak women and children of the Splitclaw clan did not really participate in this black disaster, so they did not have to endure hard labor. After Wise Wolf paid compensation to Transia, they were free.

We will be responsible for escorting your people back to the Plains of Creation when everything is ready.

Do you have any objections to this result? "

"Am I going to do that hard labor too?"

Warlord Hass asked, Adele nodded and said:

"Of course, you are also one of the war criminals! Mr. Haas, but I have heard your request from Chief Nash. In principle, we can agree to guard Xu Gesen's grave. Governor Murphy also plans to build a building near the swamp restricted area. some buildings.

You can finish your hard labor there and fulfill your last wish.

But the conditions there are rough, so you might want to be prepared. "

"That's good. I have nothing more to ask for."

Warlord Hass lowered his head, placed his hunting helmet on the table and handed Adele the roster of his elite warriors.

The transfer of this thing represents the official start of the work of receiving prisoners.

Part of the defenders of Fort Courage had already marched to Shadow Valley to maintain order during the transfer of more than 100,000 gnolls. Later, Murphy also arrived here accompanied by Maxim.

"Hogg is preparing to meet with His Highness Khufu. I guess after that conversation is over, the ransom for these prisoners will be paid."

Murphy stood in front of the Avalon Temple, which was heavily damaged by the Jackals, and said to Adele:

“Miriam said she would use part of the compensation to repair the town in Shadow Valley, and the Silver Moon Group would also raise funds to rebuild and expand it.

If the Shadow Half-elves give up their claim to this place, they can still get a large sum of money from the Silver Moon Group, which is enough for Lisa and her people to build their own town near the Ancestral Woodland.

Adele, your people are safe. "

"This is the best result they have achieved in a hard-fought war. I only played a small role in it."

Adele shook her head and touched the sword at her waist. She hesitated and decided to tell her master what happened before. After the meeting and the other party's true identity, Murphy frowned.

"So, that guy is what Villanse calls a 'traitor'."

Vampire said:

"Spider Girl has always suspected that there is an inside story in the fall of Medjeva City. Now it seems that the big BOSS of the main line of the Shadow Elf race has surfaced, and the opponent's identity as a Twilight believer can be integrated into the main line.

But what I am worried about now is whether what Saliv has done to the city of Mejwa is the end or the beginning?

If he has malicious intentions towards the Shadow Elf civilization, I suspect that his actions in the Eternal Rift will not stop, and one Shadow Elf family after another will suffer the same fate as Mejwa City.

And your father

Aren't you curious why Salifu persuaded you to go back to Medjeva City? "

"I thought about it."

Adele whispered:

"That may be a trap, but it may also have some deep meaning. After meeting him, I realized that I knew too little about my father. He is more complex and powerful than I imagined. Maybe I should go back. A trip, but not now!

Your cause still needs my dedication. "

"It will take some time."

Murphy saw that Adele was in a bad mood. He reached out and patted Adele's hand and said warmly:

"While waiting for Lord Paying to reactivate the Holy Blood Seal, we are all going to participate in that operation. Its route will happen to pass through the Eternal Rift Valley. Then I will accompany you to Mejwa City for a stop."

"You don't have to, I can do this myself, it's my family matter after all."

Sister E wanted to refuse, but Murphy held her hand tightly.

This action made her feel Murphy's determination, and also made her no longer resist the decision from Murphy.

"Hey, Adele! I'm back and I brought you a gift."

Just when the two were silent, a cheerful voice sounded from behind.

Adele and Murphy turned around and saw the eldest lady Femis flapping her huge wings and falling from the sky. She enthusiastically gave Adele a hug as if meeting old friends. Sister E had no choice but to give her a hug. He was able to respond and even reached out and patted the eldest lady on the head.

A doting gesture.

But Murphy looked at the unique caster robe on the eldest lady with strange eyes. If he remembered correctly, this style should come from a TV series related to magical girls, right?

And what's going on with your staff and strange fan?

Why did you change the Ye Xiao staff that the Lord gave you to look like this! Also, why do you need to carry a rose bow on your back?

Zhuo, you really are in line with Enshen in all aspects, right?

Has this guy who was poisoned by Mahou Soju actually started playing such a high-end hobby as COS?

"Be careful of turning into a headless horseman!"

Murphy made a small complaint, then threw a look at Adele and asked her to go talk to the eldest lady. That guy has been sitting in Fort Courage on behalf of the Blood Vulture Clan and Transia throughout the war, thanks to her Only by strictly abiding by their duties can the Jackal's logistics be constantly under attack.

Although she did not directly participate in the final decisive battle, the eldest lady's contribution is definitely no less than that of the commanders who fought fiercely on the front line.

Even though this guy has been completely ruined by being immersed in otherworld dramas, her growth is indeed obvious to Tris and Murphy.

She is already a trustworthy faction leader in the Blood Vulture Clan. The only problem is that under the leadership of this magical girl Femis, it is hard to say what kind of bad style her Midnight Faction will develop into in the future.

After all, as senior members of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, the student party's spell casters Che Che have already learned the blood version of the Rasengan and Blood Release Blood Dragon Bullets developed by the eldest lady herself. Every time they participate in a battle, there is a "lively" scene. Murphy didn't even have the eyes to see it.

Alas, what a misfortune our family has.

With such emotion, he watched Adele take the bouncing Femis's hand and leave like sisters, then turned and walked into the heavily damaged Temple of Avalon behind him.

This is the only place in the Valley of Shadows that is related to faith and gods, but don't expect the gnolls to be very pious.

This place originally looked like a hall, but now it has been destroyed. Most of the tributes were eaten by hungry gnolls. The wooden statue of Avalon was also carried away and chopped into pieces for firewood. Only the remaining A base was built to give it a desolate appearance.

Murphy was a little silent.

Then he wanted to contact Cuisi to see what his wife was doing, but if he thought about it carefully, it was not difficult to guess that he had given Cuisi the spiritual knowledge of weaving illusions left by Ao before. The scarlet witch was a man of action. The character has probably gone to the Plains of Creation to practice with the Lord of the Hunt's Broken Kingdom.

This is a really good thing. It means that Murphy finally does not need to use the system's own copy snapshot mechanism to create new copies. With the Yunlan illusion in hand, the development team can finally come up with some new tricks.

"How about creating a replica of the God-killing War?"

Murphy rubbed his chin and thought:

"It always feels like there is something wrong in not opening a raid for such an important event. Ao said that Yunshui Illusion can create a completely realistic combat experience based on the skills of the operator. Such a good mechanism is not used to express the super technical strength of the development team. It's a pity indeed.

And I can throw the loot directly into it, so they don’t have to exchange it for equipment. "

"You must be thinking about some evil things again. I can guess from the happy expression on your face that it must be related to your foreign heroes."

A familiar voice rang in Murphy's ears, causing him to turn around and see the spider girl Villanse stepping out of the shadows.

She looked dusty, and even the astringent feeling she had with her was replaced by a tired look, but there was a proud light in Villanse's eyes, which made Murphy couldn't help but guess whether she had picked up money when she went out. .

The next second, Murphy noticed a black bag hanging on Villanse's waist. It seemed to contain something, and a strange shape protruded from the surface of the bag.

It's like putting a little statue in your pocket

"etc!"

Murphy was shocked.

He reacted immediately, took a step back and said:

"Did you find the original shrine of the Spider Lady in Mossy Valley?"

"As expected of a powerful master, he guessed the truth right away."

Villanse brushed his hair with both hands, and then used the remaining four hands to quickly remove the pocket from his waist. He took it out in an attitude of sharing treasures and showed it to Murphy.

It was indeed a shrine.

But there is nothing majestic about it.

It is made of some kind of stone-like wood carving. It should have been very gorgeous when it was first made. But unfortunately, it has been weathered by time for a long time, and even the honor belonging to the spider lady on the shrine can no longer be seen. Several of the arms were broken, and the gaps in the shrine were even stained with traces of being buried in the soil for many years.

In terms of appearance, this thing doesn't look like something closely related to the gods. Rather, it looks like Villanse randomly found an abandoned thing in the garbage on the roadside to make up for it.

This seems to be something that Villanse's weird character can do.

But Murphy is an administrator after all. He can peel off the appearance of objects and see their true inner nature. For example, in his hands, the dilapidated shrine in front of him has a weight that is obviously heavier than its volume. It is no exaggeration to say that it is even heavier than the same volume. High-density metal is much heavier.

"Is this the weight of faith?"

The vampire caressed the dilapidated original shrine and asked softly.

Villanse looked at him strangely and replied:

"Of course not, my master, faith has no weight, although it is indeed as heavy as Mount Tai in many cases. The reason why this shrine has a weight that does not match its size is because of its material.

According to the description of the secret information in the Abyss Sisterhood, this shrine was made by the shadow elves secretly taking branches from the mother tree before leaving the Kingdom of Castile. The mother tree of the forest elves came directly from A gift from Avalon, it possesses various magical properties.

High density is just the least impressive thing.

After the Shadow Elves left the Kingdom of Castile, our ancestors went through a very difficult journey before finally settling in the Eternal Rift. It was during this journey that this shrine was carved by the priests of the Sisters of the Abyss. .

It remained in the Temple of the Abyss in Mossy Valley until the gnolls took the holy place from us during the Third Black Plague.

It is said that one-third of the members of the Sisters of the Abyss died in that war, but they ultimately failed to bring the original shrine of the Spider Lady back to the Eternal Rift.

But now, I'm done with it!

Master, just relying on my merits in recovering the original shrine, after I return to the Eternal Rift Valley, I will be able to receive supreme praise from the Sisters of the Abyss. With their assistance, the rebuilding of Mejwa City will be easy. It will become simple and easy. "

"Where did you find it?"

Murphy touched the shrine in his hand and whispered:

"I released the God's Scepter with my own hands. I am well aware of the destructive power of that thing. The entire Mossy Valley has been leveled. I don't think such a shrine can survive such a scene."

"Of course it's not just any place in the dirt."

Villanse showed a coquettish smile, put her hands on her hips, and said proudly:

"If this matter were that simple, then in the past few hundred years, the priests of the Spider Lady would not have been helpless against the gnolls. In fact, in that battle more than two hundred years ago, the Sisters of the Abyss Before the temple was destroyed, the priests hid the Spider Lady's shrine in a place where no gnoll could find it.

time!

They artificially created a time-distorted place and hid it in the cracks of time.

After you brought down the wrath of the Creator and destroyed that evil place, the crack in time was opened. You see, this shrine has only been lost for more than two hundred years but has been so badly weathered because it has been hidden in time. Accept the washing of time.

So, in the final analysis, you also played a big part in my dedication to Lady Spider. "

"Well, that's an honor for me."

Murphy smiled, returned the shrine to Villanse, and said:

"Next, you take it to see Chuchut. This is what I promised Lord Kulkan. Learn enough forbidden knowledge to help Quetzalcoatl from the story of the spider lady splitting from the face of Avalon." .

Then it is up to you to decide how to deal with this shrine. After all, this is the internal affairs of your shadow elves, and it is not convenient for me, a vampire, to interfere. "

"This is the first reason I showed you after I found it, my lord."

Villanse lowered her eyebrows and touched the shrine in her hand, and said:

"I was hoping you could do me a favor."

"Oh? Tell me, what are you busy with?"

Murphy asked.

And the next moment, when Villanse raised his head again, what caught Murphy's eyes was a pair of eyes as deep as the abyss. She didn't, he said:

"Please help me fulfill my destined freedom, Administrator. I have been waiting for too long."
