Fast forward to the next day, and when Tracey's Alchemy Lodge reopened at eight o'clock in the morning, players who were impatiently waiting for new products to be put on the shelves so that they could quickly complete the Black Iron Trial finally saw what they were looking for.

An abundant amount of Burning Oil was placed on the shelves and then sold out by players waving their gold coins.

The Burning Oil is an "upgraded version" of the better quality Blazing Gel, and the lead pigeon, who is the chief apprentice of the Alchemy Hut, pats his chest to ensure that it will only be more efficient to kill elite ghouls with this thing.

The other alchemy apprentices also persuaded their brothers to buy more.

There's a reason they're so aggressive, and the cunning Tracey ties their pay to the cottage's turnover.

For every item sold, players who are already working in the Alchemy Hut will be rewarded.

It's not much, but compared to players who don't have a stable income in the game at the moment, it's acceptable to work for the Grand Duke of Bloodvulture.

However, even with the all-important incendiary oil and bullets that are designed to deal with vampires, not everyone can complete the Black Iron Trial as smoothly as Xiao Wei Ming and Bang Brother, these auxiliary methods only increase the success rate, it is not 100% effective.

Both Lumina and Bang Ge repeatedly emphasized in their posts that they must practice their main skills to the minimum and master them before challenging them.

But that can't stop the coquettish hearts of the players.

The main thing is that everyone else has already passed, and if I'm still stuck, wouldn't that prove that I'm a rookie?

However, the paradox is, who in the online world can admit to their own food?

"Isn't it? Brother Mudhead, do you want to try it too? ”

In front of the alchemy hut, the happy stick who came to join in the fun and stood on the street saw an old acquaintance, and he grabbed the mud-headed car that was chatting with Lele and the old man in the park in the crowd, and said in surprise:

"Aren't you three casual plus executive players? Why did you come here to do a strength test? Isn't it cool to be an officer in a camp? ”

"Cool, we all have a position allowance now."

The mud truck laughed, waved his hand and said:

"But since it's a game, you always have to challenge yourself once in a while, or it always feels weird to be stuck at level 10. I know you're worried, but don't be afraid, the four of us aren't going to the sewers to challenge the dangerous ghouls, we're going to go and practice with those gnolls.

There are elite leaders among them, too!

And these guys are notoriously bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, set up traps and hit them into serious injuries, they will run away, and when the time comes, it will be OK to rush to harvest.

By the way, you can also help the guard recruits in the all-risk half-hanging training camp, killing two birds with one stone. ”

"Well, that's a good idea, after all, no matter how big the sewers are, there aren't so many elite ghouls to give the players a disaster."

The happy stick rubbed his chin.

He also felt as if he needed to move the "battlefield", after getting rid of the gangster underground treasure trove they were currently looking for, why not take his brother out to "fight the jungle"?

"Yo, rich brother?"

Just two days of chatting, the "rich brother" who is now known to everyone in the players came over to join in the fun.

This guy is on his head with his little manticore lion who has cultivated subtle feelings, the little guy is already the size of a fat cat, the tiger is curious about everything, one person and one pet are looking left and right outside the crowd, and the result is joked by the happy stick next to him:

"You're only level 3 now, and you're thinking about the Black Iron Trial? Is it so aggressive? ”

"I'm here to buy a 'growth potion' for my stinky treasure."

The little rich brother grinned, waved his hand and said:

"The upgrade method of our summoner is different from yours, they all rely on the output of the baby, I am not in a hurry to upgrade, I have to get the first hunt of the stinky treasure first. But I don't want to take it to the sewers, do you have any good recommendations for Brother Bang? ”

"Come with us to farm the gnoll camp?"

The dump truck invited:

"It's not far from the camp, it's about ten minutes to ride a horse, the main thing is to brush up the NPC's combat experience, you can follow and mend the knife next to it, it's not dangerous."

"Okay, how much?"

The rich brother asked happily, and directly gave the mud truck a whole day.

The middle-aged man was surprised and said:

"What kind of money does this cost? Do you have a lot of money and nowhere to spend it? ”

"Ah, there's really nowhere to spend money on this game! There's not even a recharge window, you said you sell fashion, and I want the vampire midnight hunter uniform, but unfortunately I can't buy it. However, isn't power-leveling to be paid? ”

Touching you, he scratched his hair, and then took the little manticore on his head in his arms and strained Rua, and he said:

"Isn't it free? And this kind of good thing? This kind of unwanted thing doesn't sound reliable, so you're not going to use me as a jackal bait, are you? ”

"You can register as a junior manager in the camp, and you can follow the NPCs, not only do you not need money, but you will also be paid a weekly work allowance. There is a lot of money and less things to do, so you only need to allocate two hours a day to help NPCs deal with camp affairs.

The simple and enjoyable game mode is best suited for a rich guy like you.

Walk.

Brother, I'll take you to see and see. ”

The mud truck patted the little rich brother on the shoulder, and the cunning middle-aged man planned to fool a new recruit to join their "administrative group".

The two of them talked and laughed in the direction of the camp outside the city, the original survivor camp has been divided into "sub-bases" outside the city, mainly for the collectors and cleaners who work in the ruins of the city, there are also many NPC merchants haunted, and some players can find a little strange things in their hands.

While the young players were starting their daily games, Murphy, who had just finished a few hours of dormancy in the Blood Vulture Corridor, arrived at his office on time.

Unlike other vampires, Murphy always takes a few hours out of the night to sleep, which is his "little secret". However, when he yawned open the office door, he was greeted by an "uninvited guest" sitting in it.

"Lady Shanny?"

Murphy quickly sorted out his slightly loose appearance, and he said in surprise:

"Why did you wake up so early?"

"I also want to ask, why do you, a vampire, sleep peacefully in the blessings of the night? Shouldn't it be to enjoy a quiet dream in a coffin under the curse of daylight? ”

Xia Ni looked Murphy up and down, and said a little teasingly:

"Sure enough, you're an 'atypical vampire,' as you claim to be."

"I'm just being transformed for a short time, and my human habits are still stubbornly affecting my new life, and I don't plan to break this 'bad habit' at the moment."

Murphy responded very decently, and glanced at Andre, the Earl of White Mountain, who was standing next to Grand Duke Shani.

The latter's gaze rested on the cold tooth blade at Murphy's waist, which no longer belonged to him.

The emotions in the gray eyes are complicated, and there are a few traces of frustration in them, everyone is a new vampire cub who was transformed last year, and they are all vampire novas of the black iron rank, but why is the gap so big?

He felt that when Murphy was at full strength, he was estimated to be able to knock him down in less than twenty moves.

Murphy has a somewhat different view on this.

He felt that he could do it in ten moves at most.

If it was a battle of life and death and then used the necessary evil, he felt that he could even create a "second kill". Of course, these words cannot be said, which is too discouraged from the confidence of others, and it is too unseemly.

"Surely a life as honorable as yours would not have been so formalized in my office on an annoying morning just to play a joke with me. So, I guess, our conversation last night has already come to fruition? ”

Murphy strode to his desk, took out his lord's memo and put it on the table, he staggered his fingers and looked at the very dignified Grand Duke Xia Ni sitting in front of him.

The expression on the handsome face became serious, and he asked:

"May I assume that you are speaking to the governor of Transencia on behalf of Her Majesty the Wolf Maiden of the Kingdom of Nordutov?"

"No, you can't!"

Xia Ni maintained the standard courtly manners, and she said clearly:

"I do now represent the will of Her Majesty Angelina Alekseevna Normanov, but you, Your Excellency Murphy, are not yet the Governor of Transylasia recognized by our country. At least until you're done with the rest of the business, you'll only be considered an 'acting governor'. ”

"Oh?"

Murphy smiled and said:

"In other words, Her Majesty the Wolf Maiden has agreed in principle to the four requests I made?"

"Yes, in principle, but at the practical level it will definitely change."

Lady Shane waved her hand.

The Earl of Baishan next to him immediately took out a set of luxurious palace tea sets from the psionic bag, and skillfully cooked the fragrant black tea.

While he was busy, Grand Duke Shane took a scroll from her lady's bag and opened it in front of Murphy's eyes, she coughed, and read:

"With the consent and instructions of Her Majesty Angelina Alekseevna Normanov, the Nordtov Kingdom will release the captured Transian armed blood servants from next month in a quota of 6,000 people.

When there is a shortage of soldiers, we will provide a part of the reduced troops to replenish the Transnesia region, which will be used to replenish the production system in the region, which is badly damaged.

At the same time, when the official legions of the Earldom of Cadman in Transylasia are formed, the three arsenals and seven supply chambers designated by our queen will provide firearms, ammunition and necessary military supplies for the legions under the command of Earl Murphy.

Her Majesty has asked Earl Murphy to purchase supplies every two months, and the quantity of each purchase must not be less than one campaign base!

Fifteen days later, a team of envoys from the Ministry of Finance of the Kingdom of Nordtov will enter Transcia to discuss large loans with Count Cadman's retainers and professionals.

This amount will be paid in kind by our country to the Transnesia region, and you will need to pay it off year by year over the next five years.

As a sign of the importance Her Majesty attaches to the Transnesia region and her desire to resume production, the first instalment of the loan will come with interest that is a loss in all respects, and subsequent loans will be made on a case-by-case basis.

Finally, Her Majesty appointed the Thorns Clan with full responsibility for the implementation of the 'mine-for-food' programme in the Crimean Fortress and the mines of southern Translasia. ”

Thinking of this, Grand Duke Charni glanced at Murphy.

The latter listened attentively, and the vampire lord's eyes filled with joy after hearing that all four of his requests had been granted.

But in the next second, Grand Duke Xia Ni's tone changed.

She stretched out her voice and said:

However, from the long-standing relationship with Transencia to the reform process of the kingdom of Nordtov, the queen wanted to see her acting governor fulfill the contract with more seriousness and professionalism, so the queen attached two hard conditions to the treaty.

First, because the Pact was based on the two sides working together to deal with the threat of the Scourge, the Queen had to confirm that the Translancian region was capable of confronting the Gnoll army.

So, the queen would give Earl Murphy three months.

Count Murphy must clear the current flooding of the Translancian region of the Gnoll bandits before the deadline arrives, so that these wilderness creatures do not become the vanguard of the Gnoll Tide when the Black Plague breaks out.

Second, the Queen wants to confirm that her soon-to-be-appointed Governor of Transencia is a professional who is well versed in government affairs.

Therefore, before the three-month deadline arrives, order must be restored to the region of Translasia, which is still in chaos! According to the estimates of our generals, the number of people in Translancia is between 150,000 and 200,000.

Therefore, in three months' time, Earl Murphy must control at least 60% of the people of the land, and make them recognize your rule and your majesty.

If Earl Murphy is unable to do both, then unfortunately, Her Majesty will appoint a more professional and good member of the royal family to the position of Governor of Transnesia. ”

At the moment when Grand Duke Xia Ni finished speaking, Andre, Earl of White Mountain, also happened to hand a cup of fragrant black tea to Murphy.

The vampire lord looked at the gray-blue eyes of the emaciated young man in front of him, and he clearly understood who the royal family member of the deed would rule the land in Murphy's place.

André was also looking at Murphy.

Count Baishan had no expression in his eyes at this time.

He was just looking at His Excellency the Count of Transencia with a look of "opponent".

"Three months?"

Murphy chuckled, reached out and took the palace black tea handed by Andre, put it under his nostrils and sniffed, nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Very well, I accept this challenge from the Queen! But I also have a proviso that I don't have to worry about it, it doesn't even have to be officially recorded in the upcoming contract. ”

Murphy took a sip of black tea.

The warm feeling mixed with the smell of spices hit my nostrils, but it wasn't unpleasant.

He liked the taste of victory.

Even more so than wine with blood, it was a pleasure for his human soul.

The vampire lord put down his teacup, stood up, pointed at Andrei and said to Archduchess Shani:

"For these three months, I want your heir and his minions to stay in Transcia to assist me in what I want to accomplish. He can also act as the wolf girl and your eyes to report on the upcoming changes in the land for both of you. ”

"What a guts!"

Madame Chanie couldn't help but praise:

"Are you so confident that you can impress your heirs with your charisma by your own actions? Very good! This bearing alone is worth learning from Andre.

He's talented.

But always lacking confidence, always eager to prove yourself but full of impatience peculiar to young people, but these problems are rarely seen in you of his age, I wonder what kind of story you have experienced to make you so calm.

Then, Earl Murphy, I entrust my heir to you.

His original mission was to travel to the Dark Mountains to support the Knights of the Blood Alliance on behalf of the Thorn Clan, and now having him work in the rear of Transencia would have the same effect.

But I warn you, don't spoil my little Andre. ”

"Don't worry, Your Excellency."

Andrei whispered beside him:

"I've always been slow to learn."

"Then sign it."

Madame Shane placed the contract on the table and handed Murphy a sumptuous court pen.

Murphy didn't sign it immediately, but read the deed very patiently from beginning to end, and after confirming that there were no dark holes and problems, he picked up a pen and wrote his name, and then turned the seal ring on his finger upside down, covered it with psionic energy, and then printed it under the deed.

"Wait a minute, Grand Duke Shani."

Seeing that the Grand Duke of Thorns was ready to leave after finishing his business, Murphy called out to her.

Under Shanny's questioning gaze, Murphy smiled and said:

"I hope you will stay in my realm for a few more days, you are the Venerable One representing the Thorn Clan and the Kingdom of Nordtov, and I am the Acting Governor appointed by Her Majesty the Wolf Maiden. I thought I should let my people know that.

You can go on a parade in my realm to proclaim the majesty of Her Majesty the Werebro.

I mean, my warriors

They really love and admire your outstanding demeanor. ”

He handed over an arithmetic orb, and the Grand Duchess of Shani took it with some hesitation, and then she shook her head and said:

"But I don't like them, a bunch of impudent people!"

"Yes, yes, yes! That's the gesture! Maintain this posture, with pride and gentleness, and maintain a trace of due arrogance in gentleness. My warriors are drawn to your presence.

It's better to be a little more tsundere or bring your disguised but really beautiful smile. ”

Murphy reminded:

"Don't be fooled by the outward appearance of my warriors, who are very simple and zealous warriors on the inside, and who can do all the work you command! I promise you'll love them once you've reached out. ”
