"Can't go ahead! The power of death in the Plague Valley is too strong, and it is easy to be discovered if you enter it rashly, and these gnolls are really a bit of a doorway. ”

Sent to scout the Plague Clan, Adele hides in the shadows, holding a telescope enchanted by Lady Triss and carefully observing all the details of the valley.

Murphy's intelligence officer also chose a very clever position, standing precisely on the periphery of the "invisible line" that would trigger the detection power of the Plague Valley, like a thief god who was stuck in the "hatred range" and trying to jump monsters.

It's a heartbeat to play.

But Adele's face-to-face reconnaissance is not reckless, although it does not have the "passive stealth" magic skill that is loved by Midnight like the Thorny Nightcrawlers, but Sister E has a part of the blood of the shadow elves, so her connection with the shadows is not weak, and because of her years of training, she is super strong in stealth detection.

Before the players transferred to the Thorn Clan, Adele had already studied and learned the Scout Clan's reconnaissance and combat skills through the channel of the Earl of White Mountain, and although she was low-key, her potential to be enhanced by the source blood had also been quickly released.

Sister E didn't tell anyone, but she was indeed on the verge of triggering the Silver Trial.

However, like Maxim's excellence, Adele is not in a hurry to complete her Silver Trial, she currently has two ancestral powers, which is enough for ordinary vampires, but Sister E can't stop at "good" and "okay" if she wants to follow Master Murphy.

Excellence is just the standard!

We must strive for perfection in order to make our position in the eyes of our owners deeper and more stable.

The impact of Hogg's conversation with her on Adele is still slowly fermenting, but it is certain that she is no longer a Buddhist.

Murphy handed over all the intelligence work of the Vulture Clan to Adele, definitely not only because Sister E is very popular, but her business ability is indeed as outstanding as her amazing form.

"Andrei and his followers are already close here, and the Earl of White Mountain claims that they have a secret way to enter the valley without disturbing the gnolls warlocks, so let them do the next close reconnaissance and precision assassination."

While Adele was taking a closer look at the valley, Lady Bonnie sent a message with her onomatopoeia technique, which made Adele nod.

Lord Murphy had contacted the Earl of White Mountain when he set out from the Black Flame Pass, and it stands to reason that this could have been done without Andre and his Assassins, but it was clear that His Excellency the Doge was unwilling to give up his good teammates who had been together in the first place.

Earl André needs some good results, and Murphy is happy to give him a chance to break away from mediocrity.

The Earl of White Mountain clearly understands this.

He and his faction's elite rushed here from the Black Flame Pass in two days without wings to accelerate, fully proving their reliability and tenacity.

It is still unknown what the other vampire factions of the Thorn Clan are, but at least Andrei's White Mountain faction, under the leadership of its master, has become more and more close to the style of the New Thorn Clan.

That's a really good thing.

"I have mapped out a safe path in and out of the valley for André and his Assassins, and asked them to join me here."

Adele responded to Bonnie in the back.

The madwoman didn't answer, but the silence meant she was carrying out her orders.

Sister E plans to change her position to observe the Thorn Clan's stealth action pattern in the danger zone on the periphery, so as to steal a trick or two, the seven clans have their own skills, and some "secret techniques" cannot be easily revealed, but peeking at this unique power and trying to learn it is a skill that every qualified vampire should master.

After all, you don't have a lot of skills.

A few minutes later, Adele flapped her wings and landed silently on a foothold on the nearby rugged mountain wall, calling for the shadows to wrap herself, and then erected a mechanical telescope with higher magnifications and adjustable focus.

It's a goodie she bought from Old Flywheel's old baby, Lady Taylor, and is said to be a "high-end gadget" that the Thieves' Guild's halfling masters use when they work.

However, just as Adele adjusted the focus of the telescope and captured the footsteps of Andre and his twenty elite assassins infiltrating the valley, the cold black blade silently fell from behind and hit Adele's snow-white neck.

This sudden incident did not make Sister E's observation move out of shape, she still maintained a half-kneeling posture, quietly turned the direction of the telescope, and observed and analyzed the strange method of Count Baishan at this time to manipulate the shadow to resist the erosion of death spiritual energy.

She said in a calm tone:

"In this position, if you want to cause an accident, you don't need to use a sword, just crush my wings and push me down from this height, gravity will help you do the rest.

Then you can describe my death as a 'regrettable accident' in your debriefing to Master Murphy. ”

"But Murphy won't believe it."

Bonnie's hoarse voice sounded from behind, and the madwoman whispered:

"He trusts you, though not as pure and beautiful as his attachment to Grand Duke Tris, but he does pay attention to you, and that is beyond the attention that should be between superiors and subordinates, you crazy little slut!

I've never seen a vampire who dares to rob a man with an archduke.

But I've heard that you're a quarter of a shadow elf, so it's no wonder.

It seems that the debauchery and erosion in the blood are still affecting you, poor Adele, can't you live without a man? ”

"It's hard for me to explain this to you, just as it took me a lot of effort to convince Mark to let go of his murderous intent against me, but I don't feel like I need to explain it to you."

Adele turned the telescope, and as she adjusted the focus, she said:

"You can't understand no, maybe you can understand the emotion, otherwise you should have done it on the way we came.

However, I guess, it wasn't Lady Trace's orders.

If the Scarlet Witch wants to get rid of me, she has so many options, and using her own guard captain as a killer is the stupidest choice of them all, can you explain why? ”

"There's no reason, it's just that you're unhappy."

Bonnie withdrew her swordguard black blade, and the madwoman stretched out her left hand with blood-red armor and clasped it on Adele's shoulder, as a powerful vampire elder, her five fingers made Sister E's face twist slightly.

It hurts, you brute force bastards!

"Grand Duke Tris is a merciful leader, and her wisdom and wisdom are comparable to those of Salokdal before she went mad, but she has been hurt, not just in the scars on her body but also in the hollowness of her heart.

It was a pain and regret that only Governor Murphy could fill.

I'm just warning you, Adele.

You can be a little wildcat as you like, but you can't try to sabotage the Grand Duke's healing process, it may take many years, but I believe that one day Grand Duke Tris will be able to transform back into the Scarlet Witch he once was.

Powerful, majestic and perfect! ”

Bonnie said in a deep voice:

"Only such a leader can lead the shattered Blood Vulture Clan back to life. You are also one of us, you have to think about the big picture! ”

"Can't Master Murphy lead us?"

Adele asked rhetorically:

"Lady Trissy's brilliance will dim compared to him, and you can't deny that! Otherwise, with the strange tempers and ways of behaving of the ancients, you would not obey Lord Murphy's commands at all.

You're crazy, but you have your dignity, don't you? ”

Bonnie was silent for a moment.

Just when Adele thought she was going to remain silent, the madwoman said very awkwardly:

"Lord Murphy is perfect, but the world in his heart is too big, the small Blood Vulture Clan can't accommodate his talent and ambition, we don't need a leader who has the world in mind, we just need an archduke who thinks about the Blood Vulture Clan."

"Stupid and narrow-minded conservatism, it is because the Seven Great Clans are full of people like you that we have been divided for more than a thousand years and have to fight among themselves."

Adele scoffed and said:

"Lady Triss is willing to give up her dominance and act at the will of Governor Murphy not because her heart is all about Master Murphy, you can't do it from an emotional point of view, Grand Duke Tracey made the right choice, you can't understand that yet.

You just need to do what you do best, follow orders, and don't think about the superfluous.

That's not friendly to your crazy brain. ”

"Hmph."

Bonnie wasn't going to argue with Adele, which wasn't her area of expertise, but the warnings she had given had been done, so Bonnie withdrew her hand, moved her fingers, and then left.

The reconnaissance was complete, and she was to return to Murphy with the chief's guards, lest the Governor stumble and fall into the pit and drown herself because there was no one to take care of her.

However, the moment Bonnie got up, Adele suddenly turned the mechanical telescope in her hand and changed direction.

She reached out and grabbed Bonnie's wrist and said:

"Someone came over there, and the shadow sign I placed there was touched, it's not our people!"

"Huh?"

Bonnie looked up in surprise.

As an ancient person who has existed for more than 500 years, although her absolute strength has not yet surpassed the golden one, because she has lived for a long time, the potential exploration of vampires is by no means comparable to that of "young juniors".

Her Bloodline vision in the darkness of night was much better than most telescopes.

After nearly half a minute of observation, Bonnie said:

"It's the messengers of the Splitting Claw Clan, and I see their battle banners! And the Plague Clan's hunters are leading the way, damn it! These soft-boned bastards intent to surrender are going to surrender tonight. I don't know what Murphy's plans were, but maybe he had to know about the contingency. ”

"No, wait."

Adele stood up.

She squinted her eyes at the restless night ahead, and after a short period of thought, Sister E realized that the scene in front of her seemed familiar.

She seems to have read a similar story in the historical section of the forum.

It was an emissary of a powerful dynasty from another world who visited a tribe that wavered between the two powers, and in order to force the weak ones to make a decision, the bold emissary killed all the envoys sent by the other party in their territory, forcing them to make a choice in this cruel and precise way.

Well, two choices are exciting, but when there is only one option left in front of you, anyone with a little brain knows what to do.

"It's too late for us to inform our master, the death spirit energy overflowing from this valley is also hindering the operation of the Orb, we must make a decision immediately!"

Adele Says:

"Let's kill these emissaries of the Claw Clan! Cutting off the back road of the Plague Clan, the Virtuous Wolf needs the strength of this clan, and it is the best choice not to cause a head-on conflict.

There's something beneath this valley, and once we let that stuff awaken, our strategy will be horribly affected.

Bonnie!

Can you and your men stand up to these Claw Messengers? ”

"It's a little difficult."

The madwoman compared the numbers and strength of the two sides, and replied:

"But if you and your Assassins join in, then you should be able to do it."

"Then go and gather your warriors!"

Sister E waved her hand decisively and said:

"Ambush them on the narrow route of the second valley ahead, the Claw Messenger is the first target, get rid of them at all costs."

"You know, you don't have the authority to command us, do you?"

Bonnie whispered.

Adele was not in the mood to discuss the issue of command with her at this time, and she commanded very strongly:

"If you don't carry out my orders and let the Claw Splitter enter the Plague Territory, causing a full-scale conflict, then all the blame lies with you! Grand Duke Tris may forgive you, but you have no connection to the rise of the Vulture Clan in this life.

I'm saving your precarious career, idiot!

Immediately!

Execute the command! ”

"Shh

Adele's strength makes Bonnie very unhappy.

In women-to-woman communication, she often plays the role of the "strong" side, but the situation is really urgent at the moment, so Bonnie stopped rapping and flew into the night sky with her wings outstretched.

Sister E also breathed a sigh of relief.

While she spreads her wings and glides to gather the Nightkin Warriors, she also turns on the quantum communication on her personal armor and briefly reports to Murphy about her decision and the current situation.

To this, Governor Murphy's response was brief:

"Paliano is rushing over there, if the enemy is strong, wait for reinforcements, don't let them enter the Valley of Plague."

"Yes."

Adele responded, but she didn't plan to wait for the Golden Knight to come before making a decision, and the Blood Alliance clan didn't have wings that could travel quickly, and it was difficult to navigate on mountain roads, and it would take at least twenty minutes for the Rose Knight to get here.

There is not so much time left.

"Members of the Shadow Intelligence Agency, follow me!"

In the darkness of the night, Adele announced to her heirs, Dinah and Dorothy:

"Enter the battlefield under the cover of the patriarch's personal guards, target the messengers of the Claw Clan, and kill them for the cause of the Blood Vulture Clan and Lord Murphy!"

——

Murphy was very happy with Adele's decision.

Sister E can also quote scriptures and find experience from otherworldly stories to support her decision, which means that Adele is adapting to her "dual identity".

This is exactly the template for the "perfect NPC" that Murphy wants to see, a certain Miss of the Bloodless Clan who hides on the forums and only knows how to watch dramas and anime, and at the same time imagines that she is a "horse monkey shochu".

After all, the manpower of the New Blood Vulture Clan is tight, and every valuable guy should properly play his or her own value.

"Go around the circle in front of you! It's a voodoo trap that triggers an alarm just by stepping on it. ”

Just as Murphy pondered the strange idea of a charming female subordinate growing up rapidly under his own tutelage, the cold voice of tearing flesh quietly sounded, making Murphy's already raised foot retracted.

The Governor glanced at the Moon Corpse Witch with the Death Moon Sect's arcane hood beside him, and said:

"What? Is Your Excellency still angry at our previous unpleasantness? Isn't the grudge between us that you tried to kill me, and I fought back and shattered all your dreams?

What a deal!

Your pattern needs to be opened up a bit. ”

"Shameless vampires."

Tearing the flesh sneered:

"You're doing what countless people can't do if they want to, you're taming the gnolls, what a bold madman! Hogg is frightened by you, but one day, the wolf will realize that he has enough power to turn the world upside down, and at that time, you will be the first to be bitten to death by a loose tiger.

Your tragic end is enough to wake up all those who come after you!

Gnolls are never slaves! ”

"Well, that's a good point, if it hadn't come from the mouth of a guy who has been a dog for Dusk for more than forty years, I would have believed it."

Murphy snorted and said:

"Your inferior intellect is utterly incomprehensible to the marvelous relationship between me and Hogg, and do not describe me and my brother Hogg by the allegiance of that backward master and servant. We are a real subordinate relationship, bound by an old 'labor contract'.

You think Hogg has no skin and no face, you think it has no leader's majesty.

But in reality, the virtuous wolf is only fulfilling the natural mission of the jackals, it is only doing its part.

That's a truly noble act.

Old stuff!

You can't keep up with the times, be honest and be an assistant, and you will see the light you desire, although it will never be in the way you imagined.

Right now!

Take me to that Twilight Walker!

I have a lot of new things to show him, well, in the name of the Creator Messenger and my personal vendetta with the Source, I can't wait. ”
