According to Lady Villansor, the Bafengte Great Terredient is divided into three levels, and the further down the floor becomes, the more dangerous it becomes, and at the entrance to the second floor, players have already encountered the rather powerful Goatmen, Nightmare Priests and Dream Traders, as well as the Dangerous Shadow Dogs summoned by them from the Alien Plane.

The intensity of this battle is not insignificant.

Fortunately, the pioneer team formed by Adele is composed of the elite of the players, although their combat effectiveness is uneven, but the black iron rank is already very good, and they have sufficient combat experience and the spirit of sacrifice that is not afraid of death, so after receiving the strange mummy girl Nephitali, under the leadership of Murphy, the players immediately began to "reverse charge".

It took them more than ten minutes to run down the second floor, and it took less than ten minutes to exit when they exited, and the efficiency of this transfer was amazing.

However, it is a pity that the Bafeng Special Underground Palace is an out-and-out ghost place, the roads are complicated and the maze construction is very amazing, and the more than 100 people who rushed down with Murphy will not even be half of them when they come back.

The remaining half is not dead either.

They just didn't find the right way and were trapped in the damn Bafeng Special Palace.

There is some kind of interfering force in that ghost place that makes the "automatic pathfinding" of the calculation orb ineffective, which means that once you enter it, you have to rely on your own perception and understanding of the dungeon to be able to fast in and out.

"Go, get my warriors out."

Murphy summons George, the lone wolf of the astral plane, in the dark night outside the dungeon.

This was the second summoning of the night, and George was summoned with a fresh rabbit in his mouth.

Hearing the master's command, this guy wagged his tail unhappily, and Murphy, who has a talent for beast language, heard George's complaints, but he couldn't help it, he couldn't just throw his little players in the maze so irresponsibly, right?

Not really

Wait a minute!

It seems that the purpose of their own visit is to let them explore the periphery of the dungeon?

Oh, that's fine.

"Eat your supper, you bastard."

Murphy kicked his own star wolf, who was so happy when he heard that he could touch the fish that he ran to the side to enjoy the rabbit in his mouth, and the blood-eating vulture, which knew how to delight himself, also fell down and crouched on the stone next to George.

The lone wolf sensibly shared the rabbit's eyes with his powerful companion, and Refno smiled unceremoniously.

The relationship between these two guys was not good.

But after Murphy contracted Mannes the Endless, the pressure brought to the two beasts by the astral demigods from the bad character, and under the humiliation and oppression of Mannes, George and Refnoor had to huddle together to keep warm and naturally became "natural allies".

They were still figuring out where to hunt, and Refnoor said it could be located, and George would raid on the ground, and get two or three points of meat.

George agrees with this model, but he has a problem with the distribution ratio, and he thinks that three or seven points is a good result.

Anyway, Refno doesn't eat meat and won't be weak, this guy is purely to satisfy a little appetite.

"You've raised your own astral wolves so well, if it weren't for the fact that you weren't actually in the realm of hunters, I'd have thought you'd be a great hunter and beast trainer."

Outside the dungeon, in a simple camp set up by Lady Bernice and the spirits she awakened, the strange mummy sitting across from Murphy finally finishes "processing" her body.

It's like an "anatomy lesson".

Murphy watched as the strange creature unwrapped his mummified strip of cloth, stitched up the broken hand bones, sewed up the horrific scars on his stomach, and the final step was to remove the skull and reassemble the spine that had been broken by the impact with resentful glue.

In this "unforgettable" process, she did not forget to put back the eyeballs that fell out of her sockets.

I have to say that this process is full of terrible horror and frenzy, if Murphy was not a vampire of the evil forces, he would have been scared to pee.

This is not nonsense.

Originally, there was a circle of people around the conversation between Murphy and Nefitali, and when Nephitali sewed up the hand bones, she ran a third when she sewed up her stomach, and when she took off her head and put her spine together, the remaining third of the old guys who were definitely "hardcore" also screamed and turned around and ran.

This has exceeded their limits as humans, and has drawn loud ridicule from the mummy mother.

She apparently did it on purpose.

She didn't want her conversation with Murphy to be overheard, but even if everyone ran away, there was one guy who made it to the end.

Taking off his pants, Mo Ah Feng stood not far away.

This little player, who is strange in every way, looks at the strange mummy across from Master Murphy with a very curious and strange gaze from the free-flowing "General Teacher".

As Bella's apprentice, he learns Hades and recognizes the lady as the legendary "mummy priest".

Her unique life form also represents her profession, which is one of the secret classes of the Moon Holy City, according to what Bella the Witch learned from the Spectral Grimograph, and her career path ends with a powerful life known as the "Ancient Mummy Lord", one of the most powerful creatures that can be born in Hades.

Ah Feng could tell that this Miss Nephitali had entered the second stage of this career path, which meant that she was a powerful deceased of the Silver Rank.

Moreover, she is the absolute "Orthodoxy of the Underworld" on this continent, which gives her the ability to crush other dead professions at the same level.

However, although Ah Feng was curious, he was a very polite person, and he decided to come up and talk to the mummy girl himself after the conversation between Master Murphy and the mummy mother was over.

Although such politeness is not necessary as a player, Ah Feng is a special guy after all, and he knows the essence of this "game" better than other players, which makes him full of etiquette in all kinds of actions.

So much so that many people think that Ah Feng is also an RP party.

Not really.

The RP Party represents the attitude of playing games, and Ah Feng belongs to the serious attitude towards "Second Life".

While Nefitari spits and mocks the Warriors of Transencia, Murphy, who sits across from her, observes the mummy lady.

Her outfit was no different from the unearthed mummies in Murphy's memory, with strips of pale cloth wrapped around every part of her body, but in this psionic world, this outfit obviously did not affect a living corpse, and the strips of cloth wrapped around the body were like a rather strange layer of "cloth armor" protecting the body of the undead in front of her.

It is worth mentioning that when Nephi Tali unwrapped the mummy wrap and stitched her arms together, Murphy noticed that the young lady's wrapped body skin was not in the posture of a dry corpse, although it did show some signs of dehydration and a strange dark blue complexion.

But she was no dry corpse.

Murphy speculated that the mummy's body must have undergone some kind of special treatment to keep her relatively "alive" after death.

In addition to the mummy wrap that envelops her body, Nefitari's greatest feature is the decorative gold objects of the Dead Moon Sect that she wears around her neck, on her head, and on her hands, arms, and legs, which are designed to look like jewelry, and those strange styles form a rather subtle match with the strange posture of the mummy lady.

How to describe it?

It was as if these ornaments were funerary objects specially designed for the deceased, and it became a blasphemy to give them to the living to wear.

But if you don't think about these conceptual considerations, just by looking at the appearance, this mummified lady is like a little girl who likes to dress up with jewelry, and she fills herself with this strange ornament.

She also had a pale Death Moon sacrificial robe with a desert vibe, but unfortunately her favorite sacrificial robe was destroyed during the battle with the goatmen.

"What are you looking at?"

Just as Murphy was observing her, Nephitali suddenly asked.

Two holes had been cut in her shroud-wrapped cheeks in the place of her eyes, allowing her eyes to see the outside world, but from the way she had glued her eyeballs just now, it was clear that those beautiful eyes, which could turn with her mind, were just "ornaments".

This mummy priest does not need eyes to "see" the whole world.

"Is this the first time you've met a Songhai person?"

She asked.

Murphy nodded, then complained:

"But I don't think meeting you is the first time I've 'met' the Songhai people in the real sense, and you have wrapped yourself up, so that I can only confirm the rumors that the Songhai people are higher than humans.

As for your blue skin and other features, I don't see a single thing. Well, you don't have to take off your mummy wrap because I'm curious.

It's complicated to re-wrap this thing, and I guess there's a reason why you're wrapping your body in a wrap, which may have something to do with your heritage, so I won't ask.

What I'm really curious about is your state of mind at this time."

"Huh? Is there anything wrong with my mental state? ”

Nephitali put aside the heart that had just been plucked from the captured goatman's body, picked up the dagger and plunged it into the goatman's eyes, took out the eyeballs and rubbed them in her hands, and asked curiously:

"I think I'm normal!

Ever since meditating on those strange vampire pirate ships that tragically fell overboard on their way from the Land of Origin to the vampire shores and were salvaged from the belly of a whale, I've thought I've been in a great state of mind.

I've never experienced such a vivid world before, well, it's not right, I should say that I feel so happy after I die.

Pure pleasure.

It's just that the water in my brain hasn't been able to drain completely, and it's a bit of a problem that keeps flowing through my shriveled and weathered brain, so that even those things that have fallen to death have signs of activation. ”

She sat cross-legged on the spot, and while she quickly removed the various organs of the goat-man who was still wailing with amazing skill, she complained to the stunned Murphy:

"I don't dare to move vigorously now, as long as I move, I can hear the sound of water colliding in my skull, but fortunately my brain has been processed and will not stop because of the water, otherwise it would be a little annoying.

It feels like trying to regrow your brain. ”

"No wonder you are so different from the other deceased, it turns out that your brain is in water."

Murphy couldn't understand the true thoughts of the mummy girl in front of him, but he was sure that the other party was very "happy" in this situation, and that kind of funny happiness couldn't be hidden, so just let her go.

Hey, isn't it just a brain in the water, a small problem!

The vampire lord was now concerned with something else, and he asked:

"You said to my warriors before that you have news about the Slate of Civilization? So, whose slate is it? Goatman? Or a gnoll? ”

"Huh, hey!"

Murphy's question caused the mummy priest, who was happily plucking the goatman's liver, to exclaim in surprise, and then she replied in a peculiar tone:

"Wow, you're really knowledgeable! The first question from the other fools all asked me what the Tablet of Civilization was, but it was different, it seemed that there were still legends of the Creator circulating in the shadows in this fallen continent full of hypocrisy.

And you!

You are one of those potential believers in the Creator, so, Lord Murphy, do you want me to take a moment to describe to you the Holy Father and Savior of our Songhai people? ”

"It doesn't have to be, ma'am. While saying this may cost me the love of the Mother of Midnight, I will tell you the truth that I am already a true believer in the Creator. ”

Murphy blinked, he didn't say much about the matter of faith, and from Nephitali's laughter, he knew that she was just joking, and had no intention of developing Murphy into a believer in Dead Moon.

After all, who on this continent doesn't know the terrible fact that vampires are "poop in the eyes of the gods"?

Not to mention that the mummy mother in front of her is a real clergyman, and with her background, it is estimated that Tracy is the only one left in the whole of Transencia who can discern the scriptures with her at the theological level.

Whether it is Old Eugene or Marianne, or Natalie, who is receiving psychological counseling from Raven Brother at this time, they are not the opponents of this mummy mother on a religious level.

"Back to the slate, I thought it was in your hands."

Murphy whispered:

"But now it seems that you have lost it, and I ask you, you stole it from an old jackal, right? It broke a claw? ”

"Well, it seems that that that guy's bad luck has nothing to do with you, Governor Murphy, and I know that it is definitely not common for an old, blind, stupid gnolll to run around the barren mountains with such a miraculous creature as the Civilized Slate.

I've made it my minion, Lord Governor, and the guy is still in the camp of those stinky pirates

Yes!

O Creator, behold my watered brain!

I forgot to get down to business! ”

The mummy mother exclaimed:

"Go and save someone! Mistress Murphy, your distant compatriots are under siege by strange subterranean creatures, and I have been with them for a long time, and it is the attacks of those vicious creations that have led me to risk breaking away from them and fleeing to Translia with the gnolls' tablet of civilization.

But it happened halfway

Damn it!

I can't name that. ”

"Dusk?"

Murphy asked expressionlessly:

"Was it the Twilight Believers who ambushed you halfway through? They snatched the slate and threw you into the Bafengte Earth Palace to die? ”

"Nope! No, it was the Goatman's Nightmare Priest who ambushed me. ”

Nephitali solemnly raised her finger wrapped in the strange wrap and shook it, and said:

"But considering that the damned main priest is indeed a Twilight Cultist, you are also correct in what you say, that slab was snatched by them, and it should still be somewhere in the Earth Palace.

I guess the vicious creatures that besiege us have something to do with Dusk, and once they've killed the Blooddread Clan's marines, they'll come to the Bafeng Underground Palace to take the slates.

I don't know what those guys are collecting Civilization Slabs for, but it's clear that we all have a reason to stop them and take them back!

That's what the enemy wants, and we can't let the enemy get it. ”

"Well said."

Murphy got up and said:

Can you show us the way?

I call on my clan to come here to save my pathetic blood-feared compatriots, who would have thought that the road back to their homeland would be met with so many setbacks and bumps in the road after 200 years. ”

"They brought it on themselves, don't worry about the damn pirates, my brain is flooded because they have to play a goddamn pedal game with me on deck."

The mummy mother complained fiercely:

"Isn't it just trying to steal their clan relics?

I didn't steal it!

As for being so angry with me? Those stupid vampires! They had no idea where their holy relics came from.

It wasn't a gift from the Mother of Midnight at all, it was the legacy of the Creator! Collecting them is the innate sacred duty of every Songhai person.

Shh

A bunch of idiots. ”

"Well, I don't know what happened on your journey, but IMHO, it seems like the pedal walking thing isn't playing a game with you."

Murphy blinked and complained.

He secretly jotted down Nefitari's complaint that the Blooddread Clan's relics were definitely related to the Creator, and then picked up the orb and called Trash.

Ah, Lord Pa Ying is here to help these blood-feared bastards, and it turns out that Murphy has to save them, and the mummy mother is right!

What a wretched bunch of old fur seals!
