A confused Lumina and the other four little players just went online when they were put on a mission by Trissy.

Fortunately, they had already read the update announcement on the forum before, and knew that the seductive and sexy NPC in front of them was an important plot character, so they did not hesitate to take the task, and took the main quest of Disaster Day from Murphy, and then followed the route suggested by the friends in the group and began to explore the city.

It's already night in the real world, and except for these five players who have just gone online for special reasons, most of the players have already used up their game time for the day and are collectively lying in the broken shed of the city wall defense line and going offline.

This made the five young players feel a little lonely, but soon they ran out of time.

Because there are so many facts that can be done in the ruins of the city!

Although the few blocks near the city walls had been raided by others during the day, there were still many details that had not been cleaned up, and the attentive Lumina soon found the old wine that Madame Tracey needed in a half-collapsed shop, and rescued the boss and her family from the basement that was crushed by debris.

They were trapped for more than 6 hours, tired, hungry and scared, and when they were rescued by the five of Lumina, they were sent to kowtow to thank them.

"The interaction mode of this NPC is so real, I just saw that little girl hiding in her mother's arms and wiping her tears, other games don't have this detail."

The old man of the mud truck with a gun on his back said to the shovel beside him while searching the things on the side of the street:

"Do you think it's possible that all the NPCs in this game are played by intelligence... Shovel, what do you see? So distracted. ”

The asked forklifter withdrew his gaze from the miserable ruins and whispered:

"It's been more than six hours since the city was dragged into the disaster, right? People like this boss's family who were trapped can still live, but it's hard to say if it takes a little longer. Remember the list we made for the fire protection system?

According to them, the probability of still surviving after 24 hours in the real world is..."

"It's the game!"

The mud truck pouted disapprovingly and said:

"It's a matter of a single line of code for them to survive, and you're thinking a little too much."

"Yes, I know it's a game, but this game claims to be completely realistic, don't ignore that! If the dev team could be 100% realistic and they were willing to design it, the NPCs buried in the city wouldn't survive tomorrow night! ”

Shovel shook his head stubbornly, and he said:

"I don't doubt that they have the technology to do the kind of truth they want, I suspect, um, just doubt that oh, if you read this mission description carefully, it clearly says that the number of NPCs we rescue will affect the subsequent development of the plot.

I'm starting to suspect that this is a hole buried by the development team, you know what I mean?

They deliberately didn't point this out, probably because they wanted us to find out for ourselves! ”

"Damn! That's kind of what you mean. ”

The mud truck pondered for a moment and read the main quest description repeatedly, then patted his knee hard and said:

"The two of us are going to be awesome this time, hurry up, probe the NPC's tone, and call the three of them together."

"Hmm."

Shovel used to tell Lumina and Brother Jie Chong and Brother Heisi about his guesses, and the two rough men felt that Brother Shovel was thinking a little too much, but Lumina didn't think so.

This girl with a super high IQ thinks that the shovel brother's guess should be correct.

So the five of them escorted the shopkeeper and his family back to the safe area of the city wall, and after handing over the task to Triss and getting high praise from the other party, they ran to Murphy, who was hunting the fear tokens alone, and told Murphy about their speculations and concerns.

"It's great that you've noticed this, and I've overlooked this important situation!"

Murphy was also shocked.

He suddenly realized that in recent days, he had been too involved in the player's mind and ignored the truth of the world, and for him, this horse riding was not a game at all! These civilians trapped in the ruins of the city were sleepy, hungry, and eroded by the energy of the astral plane, and it was absolutely impossible for them to survive for two days.

And he, a real vampire, still needs players to remind him of this, which is a big mistake.

Although Murphy doesn't care much about the lives and deaths of the unfriendly people in the city, the unexpected ideas that these five cuties bring him unintentionally bring him new inspiration.

Just like what he thought about on the vault before, the last link of the novice guide mission requires Murphy to get his own exclusive territory, and now that the Blood Vulture Clan has been raided, its ruling system has completely collapsed, and Cadman City is about to be swallowed up by the astral plane, the human and material resources in the city can be used by him!

He can take the opportunity of this rescue to make use of the indigenous manpower he currently has at hand, and from this rescue onwards, he can establish his own prestige and governance system among the survivors of Cadman City.

After all, what could be more worthy of following than a leader who can lead everyone out of disaster and find a new life?

Murphy blinked.

He is also an official member of the Blood Vulture Clan.

In this situation, as the last member of the vampire family that has ruled this region for more than 400 years, it is only right to inherit the rule of the Blood Vulture Clan over this land and the people, right?

So, if everything is done correctly, the disaster that happened at Cadman City may not be a problem for him, but it can be the absolute key to completing the rookie orientation and breaking the situation!

Yes.

This idea and plan is completely feasible!

The premise is that you can really save more lives from the rubble with the survivors, so that they can intuitively see their abilities, wisdom and strength.

Murphy made up his mind in just a few seconds, and the thoughts on his expression were noticed by the players, which lifted their spirits.

Could it be that there is really a hidden mission?

"Ding"

As Murphy gripped the arithmetic orb hanging from his chest, a few seconds later, a wonderful quest trigger made the five players look down at their player interface in unison:

【Large Hidden Mission·" "Rescue in the Dangerous City" has been triggered!

Mission Description: Thanks to your sharpness and kindness, the outwardly cold but kind-hearted vampire Murphy has finally realized the biggest danger in the city right now, and he has decided to take immediate action, and he wants you to join in the race against death.

Mission Time Limit: Until the search and rescue of the ruins in the outer city is completed.

Task rewards: Awarded based on the completion of the task. 】

"Damn! There really is! ”

The mud truck clenched his fists fiercely, and he whispered to the shovel beside him:

"It's so hidden, but I'm glad you kept an eye on it."

"I also thought of it suddenly."

Brother Shovel was a little embarrassed, he scratched his head, and then said with a serious expression:

"The biggest problem now is that we don't have the professional tools to find those who are trapped, and we can't save a few people even if we bring all sixteen players with us."

"No, my warriors, you have overlooked a very important point."

Murphy, who was already confident and ready to act on it, shook his head, and said to his little players:

"There is a power in this world that you cannot understand, let me handle the matter of confirming the location of the survivors, and you will rush to the survivor camp immediately! Pass my orders to Miss Miriam, the supervisor there, and ask her to gather all healthy adult men who can still move.

I need them to be part of this rescue for their fellow citizens.

Maxim!

You escorted my warriors over and helped Miriam gather those men by the way. ”

Murphy said to his loyal servants and young players:

"Restoring order is not a simple matter, and we must learn to use violence in the current situation.

Those who take advantage of the situation in the camp, who do not obey the management, who provoke Miriam's majesty, who intend to escape! Those black sheep who do not intend to obey the rules in the face of disaster, in my name, will be executed on the spot!

I need to let them know who can lead them at this time!

I also need to let them know that obeying my orders at this time will help them get out of this nightmare faster. ”

"Yes, my lord!"

Maxim felt that what Master Murphy said was very reasonable, and accepted the order without any psychological pressure, he always regarded it as his duty and mission to spread the majesty of Lord Murphy, and then took a few horses and handed them to the little player.

The mud cart would ride a horse with a shovel, and the other three were not, but they were all docile old horses, and they were also on the road under the leadership of Maxim.

Miriam's survivor camp is still some way from the city because it has to avoid the onslaught of astral energy.

Taking advantage of this time, Murphy found the eldest lady who was emo on the edge of the defense line and Lady Adele beside her, the latter had a very complicated expression when she saw Murphy, and a voice in her heart demanded her full allegiance to Murphy, but her own reason was obviously resistant to this call.

But Murphy didn't care about his first son's hesitation.

He looked at the eldest lady with a numb face, combed through the draft in his heart, and said to her:

"There are a lot of people in the city who are trapped and can't afford to escape on their own, and I'm planning to get them out. Not because of how much they mean to me, but Cadman City is the territory of the Blood Vulture Clan, and we Blood Vulture members are responsible to them.

I hope you'll join me!

Vampires' keen sense of life makes it easy for us to locate the living, and now that it's 5 hours before dawn, if we're fast enough, we'll be able to save at least a few hundred.

I remember when we first met, you complimented me on my revenge for the vulture's people, and you thought it was your duty to protect them, right? ”

The eldest lady did not answer.

She sat on the stone as if she had lost her highlights, and she had maintained this state since she had spoken to Tracy, and must have suffered a terrible blow from seeing something unacceptable in the inner city.

Murphy waited for a few seconds, and when the eldest lady did not answer, he shook his head, got up and said to Lady Adele:

"I ask you to join the action! In the name of the Honorable Minister. ”

"I..."

Lady Adele's expression changed.

She clenched her fists, but then she let go, bowed her head respectfully, and said in a dumb voice:

"As you wish, Murphy... My lord. ”

"Let's go, there's not much time left."

Murphy beckoned, leading Lady Adele to Trace's side.

He needed to plan out three paths before he could be as efficient as possible, and the only thing he was thankful for now was that the rift in the city had split the city in two, leaving Murphy and the young players to explore a quarter of the original city.

It's a bit cruel to say that, though.

But with the remaining three-quarters of the city completely engulfed by terrifying astral energy, plus the ravages of astral beasts and dread tokens, there was basically no need to look at it.

Unless a miracle happens in this dark place, there is no way that ordinary people can survive that situation.

"Murphy!"

Just as Murphy turned to walk away and took a few steps, the eldest lady's dry and hoarse voice came from behind him, and the embarrassed and lost Furoli stood up straight, she looked at Murphy, a fringe of the family, with a desperate gaze.

She said:

"The Vulture is finished... Literally! Our family pool was polluted, and as I saw with my own eyes, the entire Corridor of Blood Vultures was shrouded in dangerous energy that I could not comprehend, and our most elite clansmen struggled in the filth of the astral plane, unable to leave the corridor.

They are hopeless!

There are only a few of us left, Murphy, and we're the last of the blood vultures.

We don't have a home anymore! ”

"No wonder she was hit like this."

Murphy suddenly understood in his heart, the fact that the eldest lady who puts the interests of the family first estimated that it was difficult to accept the fact that the family was gone for a while, but unfortunately, not everyone could understand her emotions.

For example, Murphy...

He turned his head and glanced at the eldest lady, and said in an accentuated tone:

"Does that have anything to do with what you're going to do now? Does this have anything to do with the civilians who are trapped in the city and are afraid that they will die at any time? Miss, you can fly away, no one can stop you.

Or, you can do something final about the people in the city who have paid the blood tax for the Vulture Clan's prosperity.

Actually, in my heart, I've always felt like you didn't fit in with other vampires... I don't know why I think this way, but I can sense that your attitude towards humans is really different from that of other vampires.

Maybe we can work together? ”

"But what exactly are you going to do now?"

The eldest lady suddenly burst out in an instant, she grabbed her hair and screamed:

"I've heard what you've told your servants to do, and what are you going to do when you're trying to proclaim your majesty and power among the survivors? Do you want to win people's hearts? Are you going to step on the bones of a blood vulture and build your own family?

You're this... Careerists and traitors! ”

"She actually saw through it at a glance, am I pretending to be too bad or does this eldest lady really have a set?"

Murphy wondered a little.

He felt that he had hidden his mind well enough, but when he thought that there might be an old goblin who was hundreds of years old on the other side, it all made sense.

It's really not enough to see this bit of Taoism in front of others, so Murphy simply admitted it very shamefully.

He nodded and said:

"I do intend to do it! I'll tell you the truth, Phimis, the Blood Vulture Clan you love and are willing to give everything for is a different picture in my eyes, and I don't intend to bury it, but I do want those who call you 'masters' alive.

It doesn't matter if you don't want to help!

Just don't make a mess, I'm not afraid of you with Trissy.

Other than that... Traitor?

Oh, I don't know what happened to you in the Smuggler's Woodland, but how did you survive? Miss, why did that horrible guy who slaughtered the entire Midnight Hunter let you go? It's not because you're cute, is it? ”

Murphy narrowed his eyes and asked rhetorically:

"So, before standing on the moral high ground of the family and accusing me, please wash away your suspicions first."

"You... Don't spew blood! ”

Phimes's face flushed.

She was about to retort, but found Triss standing in the darkness not far away, pointing at her heart with some strong threat.

The eldest lady, who was still angry just now, was suddenly like a deflated ball, and the whole person's spirit weakened under Murphy's surprised gaze.

She waved her hand weakly and said:

"Okay, I'll help you, but I also have my request! After the astral tides fade, you'll have to go with me to the Vulture Corridor, I'm going to figure something out!

And in this matter, I can't trust anyone but the last of the Blood Vulture members, which is you and Adele. ”
