The lighting of the achievement system surprised Murphy, but he quickly calmed down and decided not to tell the young players the good news about it yet.

Today's casualties are too heavy, but such a big victory is already necessary to have a lively celebration.

It's not just the player and his lord who need to celebrate the victory, Salokdahl's death represents the end of a series of tragedies in Cadman City, and Murphy's lords are in desperate need of a ritual to release their stress and grief.

He quickly made up his mind!

Three days later, after all the young players are resurrected online, the prologue of the main quest will be announced in public, and they will be rewarded with rich loot.

The most important thing right now is to get the current situation in order, and find someone to dig up the rewards that the little players deserve from the collapsed Vulture Corridor. Murphy had previously obtained the key to the vault from Scrooge Zuckerberg, but that place was close to the Hall of the Holy Blood and was buried under the rubble.

However, the vault is so strong that it should not be completely buried beyond repair.

"The reopening of the Astral Rift will allow primordial madness to fill this area, and I think we'd better get out of here before we talk about anything else. What do you think? ”

After a great battle, the knight lord Paliano was in desperate need of a wash to ensure his perfect appearance, and he put away the scented notebook in his hand and gave advice to the others.

Naturally, no one would object.

Everyone who came out alive is now in desperate need of rest, and even the young players who have always been full of vitality are a little overwhelmed.

Escorted by the Cadman Self-Salvation Army, they passed through the Great Rift in the city, rested in their tents in the ruins of the outer city, treated the wounded and then moved to the survivors' camp.

Miriam had set up a doctor here in advance, and Tris went to help.

The three young players found a safe place to lie down on the ground and went offline to blow on the forum, while Murphy also found a tent and wiped his body with water.

He's probably in the best shape of all the people who survived.

After all, he had just undergone a template upgrade that made him energetic, and at this time, he walked out of the tent wearing only a loose linen robe to see how the others were doing, so as to fulfill his obligations as a lord.

The blood-eating vulture Revno, on the other hand, was ordered to move freely, and the spirit bird of prey was now soaring high in the sky of Transcia under the darkness of the night, as if it were patrolling its own territory.

It also quickly found "new friends".

Natalie's Saker Swift and Tracey's spirit pet Three-Eyed Raven Webber are chased around as "prey", relying on its size to fly fast and do whatever it wants, bullying its fellow winged compatriots, but it doesn't have much malice, just has a personality that jumps out of its way to play with them, and by the way, claims the sovereignty of this night sky.

As spirits, it does not desire to feed on flesh and blood.

Even the fat rat just caught was just for the "hunting ritual" that took place after the birth of the new world.

The other self did not leave the slightest thought or emotion, allowing the vulture born from Murphy's consciousness to have the simplicity of a true beast.

But the other Murphy did lend him his eyes as agreed.

As long as Murphy closed his eyelids at this time, he could use Revno's vision to observe the dark earth below from above.

There was no delay in switching between the two perspectives, and the thinking of both sides was also the same, and Murphy could feel the joy of rebirth and the joy of freedom in Revno's heart at this time.

With the sympathetic spirit pet Refno, Murphy can finally take a more macro view of his new territory.

Soaring freely, the swift and super-fast Vulture soon noticed something noteworthy as it circled over Cadman City in the air, seeing a blood knight under Paliano's command standing in front of the eldest lady's tent, talking to Lady Adele, who was guarding there.

From the vulture's sharp vision, Murphy could see that Adele's expression was not good-looking.

This made Murphy's eyes narrow.

He stretched out his hand and waved lightly, and a black shadow flew out of the tent behind him with a whoosh, circled around him, and was held by his backhand.

The necessary evil of the Desire Demon Sword is very weak at this time.

It longs for blood to replenish its missing strength, but it does not dare to make a mistake in front of Murphy, and it is not only because Murphy is bound to its soul and is its new master.

What's more, the sword of miracles knew exactly why it had fallen into such a bad position.

It obeyed Murphy not only because Murphy had conquered it, but also because it felt awe in its heart at the terrifying purifying power called "Omega" hidden in Murphy's body, if a sword really had such a thing.

But it is a powerful force that can confront the chaos of subspace head-on and purify them.

In terms of absolute power, Murphy's "anti-virus program" may not be enough, but in terms of personality, this thing is obviously on the same level as those subspace shadows that play with living beings and the world, if not higher.

The Blade of Desire does not have an impersonal will, but it does have its own unique character.

Arrogant and arrogant when he is in power, and he knows how to protect himself when he is down, which is indeed very similar to the racial character of vampires.

Judging from the large oak blades that Murphy has come into contact with, it seems that all miracle creations have their own personalities like Necessary Evil.

"Be nice."

Murphy wore the magic sword around his waist and quietly disappeared into the night.

Arriving at the eldest lady's tent in the silent gliding of blood wings, Lady Adele felt the breath of the Honorable Lady, and she immediately stepped out of the tent to see Murphy emerge from the darkness with his hands on his back, and immediately leaned down to the Honorable Lady.

"What is the Blood Knight running for?"

He asked:

"Is it related to the eldest lady?"

"He has come to inform the eldest lady that she will return to the Dark Mountains with Lord Palianor in two days, and it is said that it was an order from Lord Pa Ying to report to him and explain the cause and effect of the events in Cadman City."

Lady Adele said in a dumb voice:

"It's not certain that Lord Paliano didn't notice anything unusual about the eldest lady, but it stands to reason that he shouldn't have that much time to investigate this. After all, as soon as Madame Tracey summoned him, he joined the battlefield of the Cloisters.

The eldest lady is still in a coma at this time, I. I'm hesitant to tell her about it? ”

"What if you don't tell her? Will you be able to escort Phimes to the other side of the world? ”

Murphy shook his head and sighed:

"Since Lord Pa Ying ordered in advance, it means that the strongest ancient person in the vampire society has noticed this, and you and Fiimis are fleeing now only to prove that you have ghosts in your hearts, and the follow-up will definitely attract the thunder strike of the Blood Alliance Knights.

But you don't have to worry too much about it.

Triss had made it clear before that under the fact that Salokdal was dominated by subspace, all the sins and taboo breaks in Fimis's body could be attributed to him.

And now, as a hero who broke through the subspace rift and saved the Transnesia region, even Lord Pa Ying must be cautious in dealing with the eldest lady.

But for the sake of caution, we still have to put another layer of insurance on this. ”

"Huh?"

Lady Adele didn't quite understand what Murphy meant.

She looked at her elder suspiciously, but Murphy didn't explain, he said:

"You and Maxim will take someone into the collapsed area of the Vulture Corridor early tomorrow morning, and clear the place where the secret treasure vault is located first, and my three warriors will assist you, and this matter must be completed as soon as possible.

I'll take care of the eldest lady's business!

Also, inform Miriam that I will be talking to her about the victory celebration early tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes, my lord."

Adele now has no resistance to Murphy's orders.

She leaned down to say goodbye.

Take a few steps back and spread your blood wings and fly into the night sky to deliver Murphy's orders, and by the way, find the right people to prepare for the excavation that begins tomorrow.

Before she became a vampire, Lady Adele was the eldest lady's butler, taking care of all the chores for the eldest lady, and now Murphy's orders are just a breeze for her.

After Adele left, Murphy reached out and lifted the curtain of the tent and walked inside.

The darkness could not block the vampire's vision, and he could clearly see the eldest lady lying on the simple bed with her back to him, her shoulders shrugging and muffling her voice, apparently crying silently.

She had woken up before.

Tonight is a difficult survival counterattack for others, and for her, it is no less than the most terrifying nightmare of her life.

As it turned out, her birth and upbringing was a plan for Sarlokdal, and it is highly likely that the Archduke the Vulture never considered Femis to be his family, and that all of his kindness and care was a show and a necessary part of the project.

For the observers, it was a sad story.

But for the protagonist of this story, the feeling of life breaking down Murphy hardly needs to think about it, let alone substitute it to understand a thing or two.

"On the bright side, you have at least one brother who is going too far, Adele is still loyal to you, and my warriors are still willing to go to the trouble for all your orders."

Murphy stood beside the bed and whispered:

"You didn't lose everything.

Although lies occupy most of the first thirty years of your life, it is precisely because the lies are so fierce that the little truth in your hands seems more precious Well, I can't make it up, and I don't know what I'm talking about.

I haven't experienced anything like you, and I really can't empathize with you.

But as I said before.

I'm starting to pity you, Phimis, you're so miserable, and all the suffering Trass and I have suffered in the past seems nothing compared to you. ”

"Get out!"

Fiimis said in a hoarse voice with a crying voice:

"Leave me alone! I don't want to talk about this now, you've got everything you want, territory, prestige and power, you've got it, let me stay here alone. ”

"But I'm here to return something, miss."

Murphy walked up to her and reached out from his psionic bag to pull out a delicate bronze crate, which was the binary mechanical lockbox that had been used to store the core orb.

He placed the thing in front of the eldest lady's eyes and opened it gently.

A crimson streamer appeared in the tent, not unlike the usual vampire hearts that would be dug up.

Instead of immediately turning into a solid bloodstone, Salokdal's heart beat slowly through the chest as if it still had some kind of eerie vitality.

To be honest, this scene looks a little scary.

"When I executed him, he didn't even put up any resistance, it only took one psionic concussion to repel and seriously injure me, but he didn't do that."

Murphy whispered:

"I don't know what he did for that, but that doesn't stop me from thinking he might have wanted to leave something to you as a 'father'. Well, in this sad situation right now, let's just think about things in a better, warmer direction.

So if you want to stay it"

"Triss needs it more than I do."

The eldest lady doesn't look at the vampire heart that is placed in front of her.

She was disdainful and uninterested in the power of the door, and covered her head with the quilt, and said in a dumb voice of disgust:

"Tracey was tricked by my father into using her own blood essence to create me as a monster! She sacrificed herself for my birth.

This is what I owe her.

It's also what her father owes her, so take it to Trace.

And, Murphy! You hypocrite, that's what you thought at first, didn't you? Putting a father's heart in front of a desperate daughter, what kind of comfort are you? ”

"Well, I think I acted well enough just now, but you still found out the clues, I have to say, Miss, you are really sharp and poisonous when you don't suppress yourself so much."

Murphy put away the mechanical lockbox in his hand in a brisk tone, and he took a step back, looking at Phimes, who was staring at him with red eyes.

He thought for a moment and said to her in a very serious tone:

"A bad guy died tonight! If you're a bad person, then you should feel scared, and if you're a good person, you should celebrate. In any case, crying should not be in this option.

He doesn't deserve your tears.

And I wanted to remind you last time.

You're a vampire, Miss, and you can't shed a tear at all.

Something as tender as tears doesn't belong to us, and crying isn't a common way for vampires to get through their grief. We usually catch a few unlucky people on the street at random and suck their blood to please ourselves, you heard the conversation between me and Adele just now, right?

You're about to follow the knight of Paliano to meet Lord Pa Ying, and I think that is a more alarming experience for you than facing your nightmare father.

So, instead of wasting time on things that can't be changed anymore, be realistic.

Think about how you can survive at the hands of Lord Pa Ying, who is ten times more terrifying than your father. ”

After speaking, Murphy was polite and elegantly bowed down to say goodbye to the eldest lady.

And when he walked to the entrance of the tent with the mechanical box, the eldest lady behind sat up, she wiped her sore eyes, and whispered:

"At first I thought I was a vampire of noble birth, a true midnight nobleman, and I had learned to be as cold-blooded, cunning and vicious as my fellow citizens.

But I never learned.

That's not because I'm stupid.

On the contrary, I just have more emotions than they do, emotions that don't belong to vampires.

Now I know why.

I'm a monster, Murphy.

I wasn't supposed to imitate a vampire's life in the first place, and luckily, you seem to be an outlier in our race too, so I can ask you how I can continue with the life I've broken down or never existed, after I just learned the truth that I'm actually a racial outlier? ”

"Good question!"

Murphy snapped his fingers, looked back at the eldest lady, made a cheering gesture towards her, and said with a blank face:

"Keep it up! Pluck up the courage to face everything head-on, don't be like a sissy! Fimis, you're the genius of the Vulture Clan, and Triss has admitted that you're only a little dumber than her. ”

"So, after you've seen for yourself what I've been through, the best advice you can give me is to 'work hard'?"

The eldest lady clenched her fists and said:

"I'm not kidding you, I'm really asking for advice."

“Emmm。”

Murphy tilted his head and thought for a moment, and said to her:

"Then my suggestion is to play this game on the spot. It's up to you to stay out of the way or immerse yourself in it, just don't care so much about the outcome, and enjoy the process is the most important experience in a game. ”

"Games?"

"That's right, the game! And voila, the stage is open, the lights are on, and the supporting characters are in place! The new upgraded and enhanced version of Miss Fimis is coming! Will she let down those who pay attention to her? Will she be crushed into a brunette by the heavy waves of fate?

Hehe, let's wait and see from those of us in the front row who have already bought tickets. ”

Murphy turned and walked into the night, waved his hand without looking back as the huge blood wings closed and unfolded, and said to the eldest lady who was looking at him:

"If life is a game, then the only criterion for enjoying it is not whether you can beat it, but whether you have fun with it? After all, a game that is not fun is good enough for a ghost to play.

If life is a game, then everyone who is still alive is the lucky one who has been qualified for the test! If your life game is only pain and no joy, then I think you should think about it.

Is there something wrong with the way you play this game?

Well, while there's still some time, let's reflect on it. ”
