546. Late Aid: An Alien Visitor's Troubled Time
"Master, two-thirds of the members of the Blood Vulture Clan are currently registered, and the rest are still coming as soon as possible, and in three hours, your Blood Clan army will be ready.
The number of vampires involved in this battle will reach 400, and it will be the largest operation of the Blood Vulture Clan since the Cadman City disaster. ”
On the rocks at the entrance to the Valley of Shadows, Adele crept out in the shadows, her wings folded and her hands folded on her abdomen, like the best butler, and reported to Murphy, who stood there looking out at the commotion in the camp below:
"If you count the servant army, then the scale of this battle will be more than 800 men. I've just spoken with a few elders in the Valley of the Shadows, who are reluctant to send their precious soldiers into battle, but they are willing to provide a 50-man Ranger squad to provide us with fire support.
I beg your pardon for my clumsiness, but it does take a little time for me to convince them to serve you wholeheartedly. ”
"I don't think it's a failure, Adele, it's remarkable that you only spent one night trying to persuade them to join our camp. After all, this is not a strategy game, and you can gain 100% loyalty with a single mouse box.
We live in reality, where loyalty is always a treasure trove of hard finding. ”
Murphy waved his hand, signaling that Adele didn't have to be so humble.
Then, he withdrew his gaze and turned to look at his "former bloodline", and said:
"You don't have to call me 'master' anymore, for you are free, and the most desired thing of the blood of the sin has been taken by your own hands, Adele, and I am proud of your performance. Then I have to ask, how does it feel to be free again? ”
"I wanted to tell you that everything was perfect, so that I could pretend that I was grateful for your kindness, but in reality, it sucks."
In a very calm attitude, Adele shook her head and said:
"Like a ship without the guidance of a lighthouse, I am crossing the angry sea called free will, and every wave that hits me can be lost in the so-called call of freedom, or even worse, because I am not bound by some kind of rule, and I am wrecked in the ship.
Freedom was good, hosts.
But not everyone needs it.
If you really want to give me freedom, then you shouldn't interfere with how I plan my life, just as my choice to be your loyal servant is a manifestation of that freedom, isn't it? ”
"Sophistry!"
Murphy snorted and said:
"It seems that you have also learned some of the vices of the Otherworldly in the Forum Tavern, and you know why I am doing this, Adele, I couldn't say anything about our relationship before, but now, I think we can talk about this embarrassing topic for both of us in the midst of the warriors' assembly.
About your distorted, unsupposed feelings for me."
"How can you say such a thing in front of a lady!"
Adele's cheeks turned red, and it was rare to see such an expression on a vampire's face.
She scolded in a bit of a panic:
"I don't think we should discuss my personal affairs in this situation! Master, isn't there a war now? Shouldn't we think about how we can save our fellow citizens? Is it really right for you to put your mind on this kind of thing? ”
"I'm just doing my best, and with the greed and cunning and uncontrollable nature of the Blooddread Clan in the past few days, I don't think I'm going to save them now and leave them to fend for themselves, even if Lord Pa Ying is close to me, I can't say anything to reprimand.
It was the stupid pirates who did something wrong to put them in this awkward situation, and we didn't have a dime!
I'm not the patriarch of the Blooddread Clan, so why should I think about them? ”
In front of Adele, Murphy did not choose to disguise his mildness, he pouted with a hint of irritation and said:
"If it weren't for the Black Plague, where all forces need to be united, I would have just rushed to the place where the Blooddread Clan was killed and laughed at those idiots loudly, well, I'll admit that the topic I started was a bit abrupt.
If you don't want to talk, then we can change the time, or I can help you make an appointment with a foreigner psychologist to give you a counseling or something. ”
With that, Murphy politely made a gentleman's elegant gesture of farewell, spread his wings and prepared to go to the players to brush his face.
But as he levitated, Adele looked up.
It was obvious that she was embarrassed, but she did not shy away from the question.
She ruffled her hair and said to Murphy:
"I confess, master, that over the past period of time, the influence of the blood pact has made me have some 'undeserved thoughts' about you, and I can't deny that.
But now, the strange feeling after drinking the source blood is gone.
I have been able to view my relationship with you from a sane point of view, and I must tell you that I am aware of your anxiety in this matter, presumably because you have regarded Archduke Tracey as your companion for life.
You don't want to be emotionally burdened by this.
I have to confess that I will not be a burden to you in this situation. ”
"Ah, it's reassuring to hear your answer in such a certainty."
Murphy let out a sigh of relief.
He folded his wings and landed again on the stone, and said to Adele:
"I'm really, really happy to see you come out of that twisted relationship, just like the story of me and Tracy, who almost became a licking dog at Trace's feet under the influence of the blood pact.
It was Tracey who offered to ask me to drink the blood of the source to end this terrible relationship, and I thought it was my genuine love as you did, but it wasn't until I calmed down that I realized it was just a vicious call from the blood of the Sinners.
Blood Pact.
It's a weird thing that shouldn't exist!
I think it is precisely because of the existence of this thing that the vampire civilization cannot be brought onto the world stage in a dignified manner, and it is precisely because of this completely unequal and distorted relationship that our civilization will sink into the mud pit of intrigue.
I'm glad, Adele, that you've found yourself again. ”
"I'm glad I saw myself come to my senses, master."
Adele smiled, and she whispered:
"But I will still call you my master, not only because you saved me from the catastrophe of death, but also because I have witnessed every victory you have created and participated in it myself.
In fact, all members of the Blood Vulture Clan, including Grand Duke Tris, know that you are the true master of the Blood Vulture Clan.
I don't call you master because I have lost myself.
It is precisely because I have found myself that I am more aware that only certain traits in you that are incompatible with the decaying thousand-year-old tradition of the Blood Clan can lead the Blood Vulture Clan to truly rise.
You're not just my master!
You are also the master of all the Blood Vulture Vampires, and you are the Destiny Lord of the Crimson Keep and Transnesia.
This title represents unreserved allegiance, and in the face of that loyalty, my personal feelings are no longer significant. Of course, I realized that you told the story of you and Archduke Trissy.
Can I understand that as long as I sink into your masculinity in a state of sobriety, chasing you in the name of an undistorted love, that means that you will no longer resist it and will choose to accept it? ”
A straight ball slammed in, catching the vampire lord who was enjoying his subordinates' touting off guard.
"Ahh
Murphy didn't expect Adele, who had always been well-behaved, to suddenly ask such a tricky question, and he was a little unable to answer for a while, but when he saw Adele's eyes waiting for an answer, the vampire lord hesitated for a moment and said:
"We're vampires, Adele, and we have endless time to splurge. Tracy once told me that after my first hundred years as a vampire, the way I see the world and my feelings will change.
I'll be honest with you, I wasn't prepared.
But if .
If a hundred years from now, I really degenerate into the nasty guy that Triss predicted, maybe you will be one of my targets, after all, I can't deny your amazing femininity with a clear conscience.
You're really outstanding, in every way. ”
"Thank you for your compliment, I feel honored from the bottom of my heart."
Murphy's straightforward answer made Adele stunned for a moment, this was refusal, but then she found that there was no anger or loss in her heart, but instead she was full of a kind of joy of being affirmed.
She lowered her head, took a step back, and whispered:
"Well, my master, it seems that I will have to wait for you for a hundred years, and fortunately, as you say, time has no meaning to vampires. I'll have a map and information on how to get to Camp Bloodterror, and with three hours to go, you might need to take a break given how different your schedule is from the other vampires.
In addition, the Earl of White Mountain has just sent a message that he and his faction also want to join the rescue operation. ”
"Ah, Andrei's stupid man who is eager to show himself is really unwilling to let go of every opportunity to rub his achievements, okay okay, tell him, Adele, I'm only going to wait for him for three hours."
Murphy waved his hand and flapped his wings into the night sky.
As a unique vampire who "goes to bed early and wakes up early", he really needs to take a break from these three hours to recharge himself, after all, his biggest killer is to need an energy bar as a spellcasting resource.
Watching Murphy leave, Lady Adele remained in the dark night, letting the wind of the Shadow Valley blow her hair, her face as calm and indifferent as the previous intelligence director, but the vampire heart in her chest beat as fast as the heartbeat of a normal human.
Murphy could never understand how much psychological pressure it would take for a woman like Adele, who had been educated as a conservative aristocratic servant since childhood, to say that kind of thing to her face, which is basically equivalent to "confession".
Sadly, Murphy chose to decline.
Fortunately, he didn't completely refuse.
"One Hundred Years"
Adele stroked her hot cheek.
For a vampire, warming up her skin is not a good sign, which means that her control of the blood in her body has become out of control.
Madame Shadow struggled to calm herself down, and she stroked her seductive lips, letting out a sigh of relief at the unique touch.
"It's only been a hundred years, Adele, and you're a shameless lucky one."
Despite this scolding herself, the smile on Adele's face could not be concealed in any way as she turned and flew towards the Valley of Shadows to convince the elders to send more rangers to support the rescue.
Okay, okay.
She didn't tell Murphy all about her real changes, she didn't tell Murphy that she decided to fall in love with her handsome and great master only after she was sober
But it doesn't matter anymore.
A smart woman always knows how to reduce the pressure on the man she admires.
Adele is smart enough, and she knows very well that she doesn't need to wait foolishly until a hundred years to act, and she decides to use this hundred years as a foreshadowing, so that this night in a hundred years will be the sublimation of her relationship with Murphy's master, rather than the beginning.
Oh, only a fool would start on race day, and in fact, the outcome of all matches is predestined before the starting gun goes off.
Well, thank you to the Mother of Midnight for giving me this wisdom, to the Mother of Midnight for giving me this charm, and to the Mother of Midnight for allowing her to be born with such a seductive body, so that she doesn't have to spend more time shaping herself to perfection.
Adele, you're a lucky guy.
Of course, Adele did not forget to thank her "personal emotional advisor".
"Lady Water, I did it, according to your deviant advice, a straight ball, you are right, this is the most direct way. He, he refused, but he gave me a hundred-year covenant. ”
"Well, it's fantastic, it's full of vampire romance. Although I certainly don't see the day when this relationship will come to fruition, I am truly proud of you, Adele, that you actually did what I said! You're so brave.
Also, don't call me Mrs. Water, that's too raw.
We're already best friends across the world, aren't we? We shared our hearts with each other. So, call me Ah Wen in the future. ”
On the other side, Murphy, who was high in the air, put down the core orb in his hand with a cold face.
He finally knew who gave the conservative Adele "military advice" in terms of feelings, you water lady! It's so bold that you dare to participate in this kind of thing, and it seems that your "book of hatred" has another name on it.
Very good.
Tonight, the Black Hand Clan has added another fierce general! ——
"Boom"
The dazzling purple flames were inflicted in the shadowy fog of war in a vicious spell bloom, like distant fires rising through the mist, though they knew that something bad must have happened there.
But it always takes a little more courage to see through the fog.
This is true for ordinary people, but it is even more difficult for a group of pirates.
The Blooddread Clan had just lost the left flank of their stronghold, and it was supposed to be time to send a spearhead to recapture it so that they could hold on to what little advantage they had left in this long, painfully long battle of attack and defense.
But a group of grizzled vampire pirates in the central trench, you look at me, I look at you, and none of them took the initiative to come forward and say that they wanted to retake the captured flanks.
Hey, do the bastards stationed there have a good relationship with themselves?
Will he give himself a lot of money?
If not, then why should I save them?
Is it just because we are a group and we are now on the verge of death under attack by a group of vicious cultists, so we have to give up the first rule of piracy and run to do something stupid that will not bring you benefits?
!
What's a good thing to think about?
Besides, it's almost time for the "underground monsters" to attack, and they have to store up all their ammo and firepower to give the bastards some color.
"Ah, the flanking fools are finished, now their treasure hidden on an island in the Misty Sea is ours, we just need to flee back to Bloodraid Harbor to find their treasure map, and everyone else can make a small fortune.
The premise is that those guys have to die here, so who's going to make up for our poor compatriots? ”
A bastard in a black pirate headscarf dressed almost exactly like a classic pirate grinning.
Outwardly, he was no different from the scum of the Misty Seas, but his scarlet eyes and overly pale skin represented his unusual identity, and lo and behold, a rare vampire pirate!
The high-end goods in the pirate profession.
And even if more devastating spells were smashing near them at this time, it couldn't stop the group of misty bastards from letting out a treacherous laugh like wolves.
They were all dressed in a vulgar manner, eager to adorn their exaggerated costumes with all their valuables, each with a pirate knife inlaid with gold and silver, a dwarven musket stuck in his belt or on his chest, and some with a sharp harpoon in his hand, or a strange barbed net.
These guys, who shouldn't be on land at all, have been suppressed miserably.
But they are very cunning, so they don't lose much in a few days of offensive and defensive battles, and these old birds who are used to naval battles at sea know how to protect themselves in danger, and more importantly, they are just a group of vampires!
They are not afraid of death, and they will not die.
Each of the seven clans has its own abilities, with the Blood Vultures dominating the skies, the Thorns running in the shadows of the night, the Blood Pact judging sins, the Wolf Venoms roaming the wilderness of strange powers, and the Blooddread Clans possessing a gift of grotesque power based on their greedy nature.
These guys can plunder the power of others for their own use in battle, and they will not die contented if their desire to plunder is not satisfied.
It can be said that this clan is a perfect match for the pirate profession, which also makes the Blooddread Clan banished to the Misty Sea for 200 years after the Blooddread Apocalypse, making this vampire clan that is about to be removed from history the most terrifying nightmare in the entire Misty Sea.
Eleven out of ten bad things that happened on that sea had something to do with these guys!
They are one of the four great forces in the Misty Sea, alongside the Wave Fishmen, the Mystic Sea Beasts, and the Atlanta, and for 200 years, the Blooddread Clan has extended their tentacles to every corner of the Misty Sea, and their prosperity has even directly led to the vigorous development of piracy on this continent.
Unfortunately, the Blooddread Clan is still only a part of the pirate business and not the true Pirate King.
They are few after all.
Of course, if you count the children and blood servants who have been developed, then the Blood Terror Clan is undoubtedly the most prosperous of the Seven Great Clans, and even the Wolf Venom Clan can't compare to them in numbers.
However, in this black plague, Lord Pa Ying showed great mercy and allowed the Blooddread Clan to return to the mainland, and the sins caused by the Blooddread must be repaid by Charlemagne's descendants, so only the current backbone of the Blooddread Clan was allowed to enter the mainland.
It was a 2,000-strong pirate marine, commanded by their current patriarch and the bloody captain of the famous Mardder.
But let's be honest
Lord Pa Ying felt that he had been gracious, and the other Grand Dukes of the Blood Clan also thought that this was a rare gesture of kindness from the Lord of the Blood, but for the members of the Blood Terror Clan, few of them were willing to take the initiative to participate in the mess of the Black Calamity.
This mentality may explain the reason why these guys have been landing for almost two months but still haven't entered Transasia, and people don't care about "redemption" at all.
You can't expect a bunch of pirates to have a conscience
They just can't afford to mess with Lord Pa Ying.
The benevolence of the honorable ones was so heavy that the bloody captain did not dare to say even a word "no".
"Bang"
As the old fur seals were discussing how to distribute the treasures of the dead fools, a strange muffled sound erupted from the fog.
It was the roar of a strange firearm, and to the fur seals of the Blooddread fleet, they knew it was the captain's order to fight back.
"Ah, my dear Claire, hurry up and take a shower, change into the most sassy clothes and draw a mouth, and when your captain returns victorious, he will eat you, my dear first mate, today we are going to play something different~
Where did you put my whip? Why can't I find it? ”
"Fuck off, nasty scoundrel! Beware of your head being cut off, I've divined, and you're out of luck today. ”
The voices of a man and a woman rang out behind the mist, mocking and indecent, but all the pirates who were fishing shouted excitedly at the sound of the voice.
That's their captain, the legend of the Misty Seas.
"Bang"
The wine bottles smashed into the trenches, and the captain's scolding resounded in the fog of war, and in the face of the unsettling voices coming from the eeriely quiet position ahead, he shouted loudly:
"The raid has begun! The old rule, everything you grabbed today is yours! I don't want a penny but victory! Rush! Rush over and bring back the cultist's head! Who are you fools more afraid of?
They?
Monster?
Or me? ”
And so in the next moment, the lazy fur seals rushed out of the trenches one by one with a roar, brandished their vulgar pirate knives, poured the last of their precious rum into their mouths, and howled at the cultists on the other side.
Bah!
Landlubbers, pirate lords are going to use your hearts to accompany the wine!
The morale of the pirates was boosted, but no one knew the fears in the hearts of the confident captain, who were running out of their way if there was no more support. I have to run away with my charming first mate, and I don't dare to run alone.
Does the ghost know if his beautiful first mate will steal his treasure and then spend all his time drinking and cuckolding himself?
Alas, it's hard to be a pirate!
It's harder to be a man.
It's so hard to be a pirate man.
Curse this damned earth, curse Lord Pa Ying, curse the Blood Vulture Clan, curse the whole world except for your own ship and your own first mate!
To hell with it.
