383. Hogg the Wise Discovers New Ways to Generate Income
Murphy didn't know what the offline situation of Ah Feng's unique player was, but he didn't need to know either, because the lost souls of this exotic land in the area under his actual jurisdiction were already safe.
Although it is only temporarily safe.
"I must be pessimistic to inform you that my previous assumptions about this soul were correct."
Bella the Witch quickly completed the spirit examination of the little player "Pants Demon", explaining in her uncomfortable voice:
"This guy's soul has somehow been hooked out of his body, and he can't return to his shell in normal ways, which means that he has to use the fragile psionic energy he is now projecting to survive in this dangerous world.
However, he did not understand anything.
If he wants to live, if you want him to live, then he has to learn from me from now on the knowledge of death that originates in Hades. ”
"So, are you going to take an apprentice?"
Murphy asked with interest in the shadows:
"I thought you didn't have such a deep affection for us."
"I have no feelings for you, I have no feelings for the world of the living, I just saw a miracle with my own eyes, and I don't want it to dissipate before it shines."
Bella did not hide her dislike for the living, saying:
"Although I have not been to the source of all the mysteries of death, and I have not been able to personally visit the legendary eternal silence of the Moon Holy City, I am sure that this spirit is extremely rare and rare even in the Songhai Empire.
His very existence represents the graceful possibility of death interfering with the material world, and only symbolically speaking, this guy is a rare test subject.
As for apprenticeships
How can I, a poor corpse witch, be worthy of an apprentice?
But if your warriors can snatch the Dome of Spirits from the Flesh Ripper, then I may be able to complete the knightly transformation of this spirit as a way to complete the mystical trials that death has given me, and take the first step towards becoming an immortal lich.
Ah, the legendary ritual of ascension."
At this point, Bella, the corpse witch, softened his tone full of a twisted longing, and he tapped the rotten bone staff in his hand on the ground and said:
"It's a thing that doesn't hurt either of us, Murphy. Lord, maybe we can cooperate! I mean to start a real collaboration.
But before I do that, I have a little question for you. ”
Its blue flame eyes stared at Murphy, and it said:
"How are you going to plan little Adele's future?"
"Why do you ask?"
Murphy was surprised and said:
"Didn't Adele tell you? I have given her the source blood that can break the bloodline contract, and the power of freedom is in her hands.
I never interfered with her choice. ”
"Ah, if that's the case, then it's even worse."
Bella said regretfully:
It seems that it is not violence and intimidation that binds poor little Adele, but her heart that has begun to change, and the poor child has inherited her mother's emotional sensitivity and impulsiveness.
It's a tragedy, mother and daughter stepped into the same river and tripped on the same rock twice, but Mona's impulse eventually rewarded her with the man who loved her the most in the world, and it is still unknown whether fate will continue to favor her daughter."
Speaking of which, Bella asked again:
"And what do you think of little Adele, Lord Murphy? I mean, well, I'm dead, and the rules of the living can't bind me anymore, so let me be more direct.
My little Adele may have seen you as her destiny for the rest of her life.
I know it's a vampire's damn bloodline pact at cover, but her lack of choosing to take Source Blood already illustrates this horrible situation, and I don't know what you think of her. ”
"All I can tell you is that she is free."
Murphy whispered:
"As for me, I already have a heart."
"Tragedy! Utter tragedy! Why doesn't Mona's baby deserve a happy ending? Why can't she receive such a gift? ”
Bella scolded:
"You are a vampire, Lord Murphy, you have no moral yardsticks to speak of, and you don't need to be bound by stupid loyalty, you can have as many lovers as you want.
I've barely been through these things while I'm alive, so let me teach you some lessons as a person who has come before, young vampire.
Some men have very small hearts, and they can hold very little tenderness, and it is not enough to give them all to one person.
But other men have big hearts, and their gentleness, even if they are divided into a lot, is enough to make their partners feel warm and happy."
"How dare you, a rake-eared corpse witch, preach to me?"
Murphy retorted very unceremoniously:
"Adele told me everything about you and Lady Bernice, Bella, when you were still alive, you were suppressed by the powerful Lady Bernice in the gladiatorial arena of the shadow elves until you died in battle, Adele said that you have a good relationship, but in my opinion, this relationship has always been dominated by Lady Bernice.
Do you still have the face to persuade me to open a harem?
You're dead, why are you still so bad? Are you trying to make me achieve some regrettable pursuit in your life that you have not been able to achieve? ”
"Ahem, it's just a little suggestion in terms of feelings, you don't want to accept that it's your business, please don't speak ill of me.
It's not my fault that I'm in this situation. ”
Seeing that his old bottom had been exposed, the corpse witch hurriedly changed the subject, and pointed to the top of his head with a shriveled finger, and said:
"Just a few hours ago I felt an unusual confluence of death's aura, and if I'm not mistaken, a true user of death power has been born among your warriors.
It's a surprise!
Do you have a secret text that can give others control over death? ”
"You're talking about the captured tome in Tracey's hand."
Murphy waved his hand and said:
"It can make beginners become magicians or coffin bearers, there are already several tricksters, and now it seems that this unpleasant coffin bearer has also been inherited, but I don't know which lucky one has this power.
Forget it, leave them alone for now.
Tell me about this warrior. ”
The vampire lord looked at Ah Feng lying on the stone platform, and he said to the corpse witch:
"I need to talk to him, how long will it take him to wake up?"
"You'd better let him rest a little more in my place full of the aura of Hades, it will be very helpful for his weakened spirit."
Bella whispered:
"Seven days, or more, I need at least seven days to stabilize and heal his spirit to make sure he doesn't lose his soul from direct sunlight.
After this series of examinations and treatments, I will wake him up.
Please be patient.
After all, time has been so generous to you, just as it has been so harsh on me. ”
——
"! Why is this coffin bearer's job change so pitiful? ”
At this time, in the camp of the Crimson Castle, in the camp of the student party, the new player "Honest Dog" who has just entered the game is looking at the "coffin bearer" transfer he has just completed with a desperate face.
Judging by the way he dressed, he must have taken the route of a psychic master.
This guy is a rare guy among players who has the talent of [spatial awareness], and he could have become an excellent teleporter, and he also planned to do so when he was a gluttonous party on the forum, but I don't know why he became a coffin bearer after going to Tracy in a daze.
The psionic master "senior" next to him led the big pigeon and the invincible tyrannosaurus chariot Cheche also stared at his good brother with wide eyes.
The problem is that the two of them, the Blood Torturer, don't have as much understanding of death psionic abilities as the smugglers' woods, so they can't make any good proposals.
Speaking of honest dogs.
This guy is a "legendary figure" in the student party, he and Che Che and Hao Pigeon are students enrolled in the same class, but everyone else is already in their third year of college and is about to intern, and Brother Goudan has taken no more than ten classes in the past three years, and even the embarrassing situation that the teachers who repeatedly don't go to class and call the roll call are angry and cry.
It is definitely unrealistic to pass the exam or graduate smoothly with such a performance, and the legend of Brother Dog is legendary, although he does not go to class, he has a very clear plan for his future.
He wanted to be a mathematician
Well, that's a bit too formal, to be precise, Brother Dog wants to make studying mathematics the pleasure of the rest of his life.
As for work, what about it?
Hey, he had already received an offer from a civil science research organization when he skipped class in his sophomore year, and he wasn't the kind of genius in Lumina's small team, but Brother Dogan did have his own talent.
For example, his three character specialties in the game, in addition to the [spatial perception] that increases spatial psychic knowledge, there are also [Unforgettable] and [Draftsman], it is not an exaggeration to say that these two talents are enough to ensure that Goudan has no worries about food and clothing in the real world for a lifetime.
It can only be said that God is really eccentric, some people have to work hard to find a way to eat, but some people are forced to put rice into their mouths by God with a spoon in his hand.
But the legend in the student party is now panicking.
Because he felt that there was something wrong with the profession he had transferred to at the suggestion of Lady Triss or "Bewitchment", the Coffin Bearer was the primary class in the Death Psionic System, but the biggest problem with this profession was that it specialized in undead manipulation.
Therefore, the premise for Dogan to practice skill proficiency is that he must find an undead minion for himself.
But the next problem is that the only undead in the vicinity of the Crimson Keep are the ghouls in the sewers, which are "high-level monsters", so the current dogs can only give away human heads.
"Damn, can't this ghost game really be washed?"
The dog covered his face in despair and screamed at the car and the good pigeon:
"Or am I going to kill myself and start again?"
"You're killing yourself!"
The good pigeon shouted:
"If you die, you can only wait until you are resurrected in three days, okay? You're a fucking talent, too, and told you to go to the eldest lady to become a psychic, how can you run to Lady Trissy?
The difference between the two places is 108,000 miles.
You've been lurking in the forums for so long, didn't you know that Lady Tracy was the famous Scarlet Keep Fungi?"
"Ahem, I found it by accident."
The dog coughed embarrassedly, and really didn't have the face to tell his brothers that he was attracted by Mrs. Trissy's "beauty".
No way, this modeling is too demonic.
"So what's going on now?"
Cheche had played with Brother Goudan for a period of time before, and the two often played ranked together, and he was the one who had the best relationship with Brother Goudan in the student party.
This will be a little anxious to scratch his ears and cheeks and say:
"Why don't you leave your main profession behind? Go and change to a secondary job first, level up, pass the Black Iron Trial, and then catch a ghoul, and then slowly practice your skills? ”
"That's a way to do it."
The good pigeon nodded and said:
"Do you want to take the Hunter Line? Let me tell you, according to our current observations, the hunter profession is super strong in the early stage, especially after the catfish shark developed hyena domestication and the Hyena Puppy prestige mission opened on the side of the big boss Hogg, the hunter's spring is here.
Now when I go out with four or five dogs, I am basically invincible alone, and I am going all the way. ”
"But I don't have any specialization! There was neither taming nor shooting, and in reality I had never touched any of this. ”
The dog said with a sad face:
"And if I turn to a hunter, won't my talent for spatial perception be wasted? I'm also going to be a first-class teleporter in the game. ”
"That's just as well. Instead of being a mediocre hunter, it is better to put effort into doing a good job in this main job, and the officials have said that there is no sewer profession. ”
The two student parties hesitated, exchanged a few words in private, and Che Che said:
"Why don't you ask Sister Lumi? She has a lot of ideas, maybe she can find a way for the dog. ”
"Ask, ask."
The good pigeon waved his hand, and then took out his psionic bag, and took out the psionic equipment he had used before to complete the armament for Brother Godan.
Although the student party is not very large, they are probably the most united group in the game at the moment, and they are very pure.
While the other guilds had begun to prepare for the Black Apocalypse, the Student Party was the only one who didn't care about it, as all of them were vampires, which led to them being scrapping the reputation of the Vulture Clan and the other two vampire clans and the Bloodclaw Gnolls.
They firmly believe that the main NPC, Lord Murphy, will not leave them behind.
As for Murphy, Lord Lords also like to deal with the student party, these guys are pure and hot-blooded, and they are very useful little players.
"I mean, don't you know a lot of girls?"
In the camp tent, the good pigeon helped the dog and egg brother change his equipment, and whispered:
"Why don't you find a few girls to come in? Otherwise, it's not interesting for a group of big men to form a group. ”
"Women are annoyed, don't don't."
The dog waved his hand and said impatiently:
"Once they get together, there's a lot of it.
It's nothing for them to get together to play games, and you don't know that the people in your dormitory are playing games, and I've heard about it.
Do you want to know what those girls thought of you in the first place, and how their attitudes changed after they learned that you made money?
Let me tell you, the current students are not pure, they are young, so they dare to do anything and dare to say anything, and with a good skin, they feel that the whole world has to make way for them.
Shallow!
It's too superficial, I'm too lazy to hang out with them. ”
"Tsk, the master of the love field is really different."
The good pigeon grinned, and said no more about it, and after a few minutes, the cheerful car re-entered the tent, snapped his fingers, and said to the dog:
"Let's go! Let's go to the Smuggler's Woodland to find Hogg, the Bloodclaw Clan has a way to help you get the undead minions, and Sister Lumi has arranged it for us.
All she needed to do was help Hogg dispose of some of the skeletons in the woodland in exchange for help, and she said Hogg had a secret method in his hand to bring you a fully obedient undead minion.
You don't even need to use psionic skills to subdue it, you can use it as you go, and there's even 'high-end units' like Skeleton Cavalry and Skeleton Mage for you to choose from.
Hey, blessed are you kid. ”
Che Che patted the bewildered dog on the shoulder, and he said:
"The undead minions that Hogg can provide are high-end goods with the [Elite] label, although they are not elites, I estimate that they have a promising future for cultivation!"
On the other side, in the Bloodclaw Clan's camp, Chief Hogg had just put down the Orb of Arithmetic in his hand, and he had received a request from his "Kobold Strategist" Xiao Wei Ming, to help one of the warriors under the command of Master Murphy obtain his undead servant.
Hogg knew why this had fallen on it.
The cunning and skinny gnoll chief grabbed the cold command staff in his hand, and with a flick of it, a skeleton sword and shield soldier wearing armor to cover the white bone body clicked in front of it.
The black hole in the white skull danced with blue spiritual fire in the eyes, waiting for his "master" to give orders.
Hogg had thought that his possession of the Scepter meant that the Bloodclaw Clan had extra elites to use, and that an army of more than two hundred elite skeletons would be enough to sweep across the Smuggler's Woodland and advance into the Filthy Swamp.
But now, Hogg discovers that the scepter may bring him more than just pure power
"I can sell them!
If there are already followers of the Death Force under Master Murphy's command, it means that such a legacy will take root in the Crimson Keep, and there will only be more and more people with similar needs, and the only place in the whole of Translansia that can provide them with obedient and useful undead minions is currently here!
This is the 'location advantage' that Master Murphy has been emphasizing! Ah, I see, unique resources need to be put to good use. ”
The skinny gnoll wagged his bald tail and laughed:
"The warriors who are hungry for power will pay for it with everything I need, and this skeleton army can bring more good rewards to my clan.
Well, it's not enough to have an army of skeletons, I should capture more strange undead from the swamp to satisfy the warriors' bizarre pursuits.
Ha!
Best of all, there are a lot of them near Plaguetown. I'm going to 'restock'!
Right!
That's it. ”
