"My god sent down an oracle yesterday in the Sanctuary of the Crimson Keep."

After the warriors gathered in the temple happily accepted the god-killing mission that almost sent them to death, Natalie, who was carrying the Watcher's Greatsword, stepped forward, and the Witching Queen, who had been in a much better state of mind recently, and even her expression was no longer silent, said in a serious tone:

"Father Eugene and Mama Marianne and Mama Jules and I heard the whispers of my god clearly, and the god of nature wants to see the defeat of the evil god of filth, and he wants to see the cycle of the black plague end once and for all.

So, in this matter, the church of Avalon will provide all the help we can! I myself will also participate in the hunting and destruction of the Lord of the Hunt as part of the action after completing the Chosen Rite bestowed upon me by Avalon. ”

"The oracle of clarity is sent down like my lord!"

Turner, who was dressed in the robes of the Winter Wolf Warrior Monk, replied in a deep voice:

"Not only me, but several of the masters of the Wolf God's Eye Monastery have also received oracles, and there is a shadow of twilight in the events of the Lord of the Hunt, which is destined to have a terrible impact on this world, therefore, in the name of the gods, we will participate in the attack of the Trancian and Hogg Lord against the evil gods.

The cold winds and fangs of our Lord will destroy the power of the evil god and the pathetic ambition of the masterminds behind it all. ”

"Well, my lord has also sent down an oracle."

The last Liwen knight was a little weak, especially her strength that had just begun to rise by leaps and bounds when she came in, but it was still not strong, so she was a little embarrassed to say:

"But the power of the Eastern Holy Spirit has not entered Transcia and the Dark Mountains, and our Lord has asked me to participate in this god-killing war all the way, but my Lord promises that when necessary, the power of the Eastern Holy Spirit will protect the warriors from walking in evil and filth without interference."

The three Chosen Ones spoke one after another, and the virtuous wolf Hogg was ecstatic in his heart at this moment.

Seriously, Hogg was full of confidence, but it was only a lie, it was a crippled gnolll from Transnesia who trembled at the thought of killing the evil god, it was created to evolve intelligence, and of course it understood the danger of this.

If it weren't for Murphy's promised help, Hogg would have had the heart to pick a son.

But now, the servants of the three gods have all given "military advice", so what else is there to say?

That's it!

Even if you use elementary school math to calculate, you will know that there are three gods on your side, and there is only one on the other side.

Hey, I'm the advantage!

"Vampires don't have gods, and we don't get any decent oracles, but that doesn't stop the four major vampire clans from deciding to join this great cause."

Murphy concludes by saying:

"The Knights of the Blood Pact, the Thorny Assassins, and the Blooddread Hunters will be the vehicles for the vampires to demonstrate their power in this hour of darkness, and we, the Blood Vultures, will send the best of Translancia's warriors to the perilous battlefield.

I have personally tested these warriors, and I am confident that my warriors will not let this continent down.

However, although it is a bit demoralizing, I would like to say a few things that must be noted at this time, my warriors. ”

The Vampire Lord looked at the restless little players.

These guys are dressed quite human-like in this "cutscene", probably because all kinds of strange decorations have not yet become popular, most of them are wearing mighty family guard armor, a small number of people have been exchanged for the arms of the clan king, and there are guys like Pomegranate and Cat Brother wearing red and gold patriarch guard suits.

In short, just looking at the appearance reveals an elite style.

However, for Murphy, this is obviously just a symbol of a good player, Murphy belongs to that kind of "old-school aesthetic", for example, he has always thought that the hairs in the sea soul shirt are much more elite than the heavily armed hairs, and for example, in the experience brought by many games, the more bells and whistles the player wears, the more painful it is to beat people.

However, now the game has only been in operation for five months after all, and those illusion things that truly embody the "identity of the strong" have not yet appeared, so I can only convince myself with the "neat military appearance" in front of me.

He coughed twice and said loudly:

"While no one doubts your courage, it would be murder to send you Black Iron to the God-Slaying Battlefield just like that, so I've discussed it with Wolf Hogg, and we've decided to give you some special training before we actually let you into the Mossy Valley.

The first training session will be provided by His Excellency Virtuous Wolf, who will train and rearm you in the Gnoll-style combat style.

The second training session will be led by Lord Pa Ying, and you will travel to the positions of the Blood Alliance Clan to sharpen yourself in the Black Plague and gain the approval of the Blood Alliance Knights, who have carefully crafted the weapons and armor for this battle.

Wait until you've completed these two phases of combat training before you can actually set foot on your way to Mossy Valley.

But you have to watch the timing.

There is not that much time for you to get used to, and this god-killing feat must be completed in four months! This is the shortest time for the birth of the Lord of the Hunt, predicted by the Lord of the Biting Bone.

In four months, you will complete the Silver Trial!

Only then will you be able to avoid losing yourself on the battlefield against the evil gods. ”

"Yes, I have prepared the first stage of trials for you."

Hogg immediately followed the steps he had previously stated, took out an "old version of the Centennial Treasure Map" that he had made only yesterday, and handed it to the Happy Stick, the best at treasure hunting among the warriors.

It explains:

"This map chronicles the whereabouts of the last of the Bone King's hunting guards, and the loyal warriors who still guard the 'Vault of the Bone King' after death! The legendary armor and weapons of the Biting King are buried there, and only the bravest of you will be qualified to pick it up and inherit Lord Philip's will to war.

I must warn you that this trial is difficult, and you have no more support, so you will have to enter the tomb on your own.

Ninety days!

If you can't do it in 90 days, I'll have to choose someone else with regrets. ”

"Who do you look down on?"

Brother Meow, who was carrying the beheader of Vam, immediately retorted:

"We're going to prove our prowess, we're going to get those legendary weapons, and we're going to use them to beat the shitty hunters. We are not afraid of any evil gods! ”

"That's right! We're the Fourth Plague! No matter what evil god you are, a wave of bulldozing for you, and the hood will be pulled down for you! ”

An arrogant declaration suddenly sounded in the crowd, causing Murphy to laugh dumbly.

The effect of Hogg's agitation seems to have been a little too good, making the guys scream and prove themselves.

But it's a good thing.

The players who got the treasure map didn't waste time, and after confirming that the place was in the depths of the forbidden place of the Filthy Swamp, these people discussed the "strategy order" and set off overnight without hesitation.

Although the girls of the Silver Moon Regiment also took over the stronghold task about the Shadow Valley from Adele, that task was obviously not something that could be completed in a day or two, so they didn't hesitate to follow the others to teleport to Wolf Castle.

But not everyone is so reckless.

After most of the people had left the temple, Happy Stick and Brother Meow ran to Murphy's side, and they whispered:

"Lord Murphy, while we are glad that we have been chosen as god-slayers, our compatriots do not want to pass up the opportunity to be part of such a great legend. So, can we pick some followers to join in? ”

"Absolutely!"

Murphy explained softly:

"I've tested forty of you on the Holy Blood Festival, and I know you're absolutely qualified, and that playful battle wasn't just for my personal enjoyment of the battle, it was all part of the 'big plan'!

As gifted individuals whom I recognize, the others you have chosen must also be true warriors.

Hogg is not so rigid and only needs a hundred and twenty people, in fact, this black plague will screen out the real brave for us, and when the big thing is going on, all the brave who dare to challenge the evil god will have a chance to become heroes.

I believe that you are the best warriors among the Gentiles, and you will not give up this glory to others.

But if other warriors prove to be better than you along the way, Hogg may change his mind, as Lord Wolf is the one in charge of the action.

Moreover, the second stage of selection was personally inquired by Lord Pa Ying, and even I was not qualified to make more suggestions in front of the Millennium Lord.

If the stern lord thinks you are not qualified, then you need not be sad, and you can return to the positions of Transcia to help fight the gnolls.

Others may despise you and ridicule you, but Tris and I will never give up on you, and you don't have to cry when you are angry outside, Transcia is your warm home forever! ”

Hearing Master Murphy talk about the "big plan" that he hadn't said for a long time, Brother Meow and Brother Bang suddenly felt a burst of relief, it seems that their main NPC has not forgotten the great wish they made.

But after listening to Murphy's description, the two guys suddenly felt the pain in their eggs again.

Okay.

It turns out that the quota of this god-killing group of 120 people is not fixed! Is this still a competitive model? However, considering that the players who enter the game later are estimated to not be able to surpass their old qualifications within 90 days, unless they are all combat geniuses.

But if you think about it with your ass, you know that that kind of person can't be rotten on the street.

Scald!

It's time to take action, if someone robs the place, it will be a shame to die, how can you hold your head up on the forum in the future?

Looking at the way Woo Meow and Happy Stick gritted his teeth, Murphy, who was a dog planner, suddenly showed a subtle smile, and now this legendary quest is probably the heaviest quest line since the game's closed beta.

He was sure that once the mission progressed to the final step, any player with some skills would not miss that scene.

Although this thing is essentially a sneak attack, and the Lord of Pa Ying will also arrange people, it is good that Transcia can be allowed to send 120 people, but the Lord did not say that Hogg and Murphy will not be able to issue some support peripheral blocking and other missions at that time.

How?

It's the warriors who attack the fortifications, but the ones who do the logistics work, right?

You can't treat this kind of thing differently.

In short, now is the time to stir up the gimmick first, so that all players know about the existence of this legendary quest chain, so that it is convenient to concentrate on doing big things in the later stage! This is the operational technique that Murphy learned from one of the most famous cases in the gaming world, the "Angela Opens the Door" incident.

Hey, there's always been a trick to getting players from the chaos camp to twist together.

Murphy walked out of the temple with his hands behind his back and was in a happy mood, and saw Adele and two half-elf elders waiting for him there.

"Master, I will personally lead the two elders and several half-elf chiefs in the valley to Transasia, do you have any other orders?"

"Take care of our friends and let them walk around Transylasia and see the new home we have created with our own hands."

Murphy said to Adele:

"I believe that our half-elven friends can see in them the determination of the Transans to withstand the catastrophe, and that will convince them to consider Transncia their future home with peace of mind.

In addition, the arrangement of the Shadow Elves under Verantor is a question, and I have instructed Verantor to purge her Shadow Elf followers to ensure that the rest are loyalists, and then convert them into members of the Vulture Clan.

However, their faction status is delicate, so I want you to lead and manage them.

I know, Adele, I know you're very resistant to everything related to the Shadow Elves, but the problem is that I can't find a second person in the current Blood Vulture Clan to lead these Elven vampires other than you. ”

Adele's expression was very resistant to Murphy's proposal, her resistance to the shadow elves was from the heart, but after a few seconds, Adele looked up at Murphy.

Biting her lip, she asked:

"Master, do you want to see me lead these evil beings for you?"

"Yes, I hope, it's the best solution I can think of."

Murphy replied seriously, so Sister E took a deep breath, she nodded and said:

"Then I will take this order, and I will convince myself to accept this group of people who are not liked by me, because it is your order."

Adele's decisiveness made Murphy blink.

He said:

"You can actually refuse, you don't have to force yourself because of my orders. Well, I'll tell you the truth, Adele, you may already know about the destruction of Mejeva, but you certainly don't know the details.

That city was destroyed by the nezumi along with the inner demons, who were the servants of Dusk, and Dusk was our enemy.

This means that if the confrontation continues, there is a good chance that we will go to the city where you were born, you know what I mean? I know you don't like it, but you have to be prepared for the worst. ”

Adele fell silent.

The news brought by Murphy made her feel heavy, Sister E had been freeing herself from the entanglement of the Shadow Elf bloodline in the first half of her life, but she had never been able to get rid of the shadows of the past in the second half of her life.

It seems that even fate dictates that she must confront the past that she wishes to be forgotten, and the story of her and her mother and her father is far from over.

It wasn't until this that Adele realized Murphy's intention of asking her to take command of the shadow elf vampires.

She hesitated for a moment and asked softly:

"Are you going to help them rebuild the city of Mejwa? I think that the cunning lifeweaver girl of Villansor must have used this condition as a bargaining chip for allegiance. ”

"Yes, I agreed, but that doesn't mean I really want to do it."

Murphy trusted Adele and explained to her:

"Even if we really want to rebuild that Shadow Elf city in the end, I won't give it to Veranther, if we want to have a plan for the shadow elves in the future, then there is only one person in my mind to be the master of Mejewa City."

The Vampire Governor put his hand on Adele's shoulder, and he could feel the trembling of Sister E's body.

He said:

"You! Adele! There's no one better suited to rule that city than you, but don't worry, it's just a preparation for a possibility in the future. I will not force you to accept a fate that you do not want to accept, just as I have just made that excessive request and want to hear you reject it.

You're free, you can say 'no' to the world. ”

"I can, but not because I want to."

Sister E lowered her head, and she said:

"I just don't want you to add more trouble, just as you left me a hundred years to think about the future, I think I'll only come back to you eventually.

If you want me to be the lord of Mejewa City, I'll convince myself too, not because I want to, but because you want to.

That's all. ”

"Well, Adele, you're kind of scaring me, really."

Murphy sighed and said:

"Okay, okay, I'll talk about that later, but please take our guests on a trip to Transencia now, they are also your people, and doing something for them may make you happy."

"Well, goodbye then, master."

Adele retreated, and after she left, Murphy stood silent in the dark night of the Valley of Shadows, until a dozen seconds later he looked back at a stone behind him.

Paliano, the knight of pure love, was standing there, looking at him faintly.

The guy also had a golden dagger embellished with roses in his hand, which wasn't his usual weapon, but Murphy could almost guess what the Rose Knight was going to do with it.

"I can explain!"

Murphy screamed, and the Pure Love Knight snorted, saying:

"No need to explain! I have only seen a depraved elder who tempts his offspring, and I declare that you are no longer the beauty of my heart, you filthy creature. Give me back my roses! You don't deserve it! ”

"Ah, I think I can actually salvage it, really."

Murphy covered his face, sighed and said:

"You believe me, Paliano, I really didn't do anything bad, and in order to prevent Adele's mind from continuing to be distorted by the blood pact, I even gave her the source blood! She's not my heir anymore. It's a secret that only a few people know. ”

"Huh?"

Paliano, who was about to snatch the rose from Murphy, stopped.

He looked at Murphy suspiciously, and the latter gave him a helpless look, and after confirming that Murphy was not lying, Paliano hesitated a little.

"That, you've been in this business for so long, have you ever encountered this kind of thing before?"

Murphy whispered:

"Can you give me some advice? Big guy. ”

"Hmph, how could the vampire's elder and heir have such a relationship? What elder would be willing to give up a promising heir like Ms. Adele?

You're probably the only one who will give precious Source Blood as a gift, especially if the Blood Vulture's pool of Holy Blood has exploded.

What a generous attitude. ”

The Golden Knight pursed his lips and said:

"It's the first time I've seen this, well, I'll allow you to keep my roses for now, but I'll keep an eye on you, cheap Murphy! If you dare to break your oath, there will be a place for you in my rose garden. ”
