Although he did not single-handedly plan the racial gameplay of the Gnolls, it has to be said that the first batch of Gnoll pioneers did capture the essence of the gameplay of this new race in a short period of time.

Their publicity in various aspects has indeed attracted a group of reserve players who are very interested in it.

However, it is a pity that the jackal player is now embarking on a journey to find his roots, and the distance from Translancia is so far away that Murphy also feels like he is out of reach.

But fortunately, Hogg wears the Traveler Armor and can communicate with Murphy in real time through the Creator's quantum communication, allowing the Vampire Governor to fine-tune the order of the new birth of the Gnoll player through remote command.

For example, these few nights, Hogg would have a long talk with his Murphy master.

It urgently needed to learn more about Murphy's art and skill in guiding the player's actions, and the Virtuous Wolf had fully realized the potential and power of the Gnoll's players, and the fact that more than a hundred people had formed a tribe of 3,700 people for it in three days was enough for Hogg to regard them as his ministers.

However, the traditional culture of the Jackal is like this, which is destined to be different from the way the Jackal players play and other race players, and the two sides don't even have much experience to learn from each other, and Murphy can only tell the Virtuous Wolf some ideas and central ideas, and the specific operation has to be done by Hogg himself.

But fortunately, after the creator's civilization spokesperson program strengthened his wisdom, the virtuous wolf did not lack such strength.

Murphy was still sitting in the Dark Valley at this time, and he had not had any idle moments in the past few days, the defenders of the Black Flame Pass had been sent to the Maginot Line, and Kudell had given them a week's vacation to take turns to rest to restore some morale, and the materials and military weapons that had been brought out had also begun to be erected and assembled on the position.

There is no news from the Plantagenet Kingdom and Nordutov for the time being, but Murphy estimates that they will not be silent for long, and the battle report of the Black Flame Pass is enough to wake up King Louis and the Wolf Maiden.

The Governor is worried about the tunnels that have been dug since noon today.

The final drawings of the Brotherhood of Stonemasons have been handed over to the High Lord of the Silver Dwarves and approved by the master builders, and the hundreds of earth priests in the valley have begun to excavate and construct a huge three-dimensional tunnel system with a width of thirty kilometers from the underground starting point in the Shadow Valley according to the plan of the first phase of the drawings.

I don't know how the dwarves are going to do it, anyway, Murphy was dizzy when he saw the tunnel system.

It's like a ball of yarn entwined, like the construction drawings of some viaduct, and you can't even read it without a certain amount of construction experience, let alone tasting.

It is said that this set of drawings is still modified by Lao Chen Tou and his three students based on a certain combat tunnel in another world, anyway, what Murphy is worried about at this time is not whether this set of tunnels can play the role of blocking operations, but whether his players will get lost after they really enter it.

In terms of the complexity of this thing, if the player really gets lost, it is estimated that there is only one option to commit suicide and reopen, and if you want to rely on the sense of direction of the city people's crotch to get out, tsk, I'm afraid it's a little difficult.

"Can you finish the excavation of this phase of the project before the filthy spirit energy in the Black Flame Pass dissipates?"

Murphy stood in front of the entrance to a large pit that had been dug by earth magic, and asked Lord Ofg, who was holding a measuring staff beside him, the little old man and the dwarf lord would be thinking about the blueprints, and was a little dazed by this question, but then shook his head and said:

"These tunnels are fully planned, and they don't need to be reinforced with earth spells, just digging can be done in a week. You wouldn't think that the Earth Priests dug the tunnels with their hands and shovels, did they?

This is essentially a form of psionic magic, Your Excellency the Doge.

We only need to plan the beginning and end point under a certain section of the ground, and then mobilize the power of the earth to easily complete the shaping of the tunnel, but to be honest, this kind of unreinforced tunnel is very dangerous once the node is discovered, and the gnolls can paralyze an entire section of the tunnel with only one precise seismic spell.

Even if they don't use psionic energy, the sheer number of kobold minions alone will be enough to offset the slight advantage you have gained using the tunnels.

If it's just a tunnel, it's not enough to slow down the passage of the gnoll's army. ”

"Of course it's not just the tunnel, have you read the war plan submitted by Lieutenant Colonel Qin yesterday?"

Murphy whispered:

"Our arsenal has received material support from the Black Flame Pass and has begun to mass-produce mature anti-infantry mines.

Once the gnolls enter the Barren Mountains, they will have to deal with a denied area of hidden minefields and tunnels, and my goatmen spell group has provided us with some simple techniques for stealth and damage.

They reinvented the concept of landmines and created a lot of psionic runes that could fill in our gaps in explosives.

In this arrangement, the gnolls would have to pay huge casualties if they wanted to advance quickly, and we had tunnel support, and even if they took human demining measures, they would definitely not be able to keep up with the speed at which we lay mines in the rear.

And once they start sweeping operations in order to ensure the safety of the communication line, it will completely fall into the strategic planning of Lieutenant Colonel Qin.

If the Black Flame Pass is an unshakable shield against the invasion of the gnolls in a direct and resolute manner, then the Barren Mountain is a vast web full of barbs.

We won't fight them directly, but as long as they can't get rid of us all at once, they'll be trapped in this net little by little, strangled by their necks and suffocated to death.

Of course, in order to achieve this, our arsenal will have to produce explosives with mature technology at all costs, and the materials in the Black Flame Pass can only be supplied for half a month's full production, and the rest cannot be raised by relying on Transnesia.

It's also something I want you to help us advance when you return to Fort Silver. ”

"I'd rather stay here, Governor Murphy."

Lord Ofg sighed and said:

"Mother Earth has just lost her holy place, and the gods have stopped answering the prayers of the faithful, and the combination of these two events makes me, a sincere person, feel uneasy from the bottom of my heart.

We have lived up to the expectations of the gods, and the Silver Dwarves need to be involved in the war to cleanse their hearts of guilt. ”

"But with your status and seniority, it's obviously more useful to stay behind."

Murphy persuaded:

King Louis was slow to make up his mind, apparently fearing that a massive mobilization for war would interrupt the domestic reforms he had just restarted, but it was no longer the time to do both.

He needs some pressure.

I can't expect Loren to do this, he is a loyal dog at the feet of King Louis.

Of course, I also have friends in the Plantagenet Kingdom, and the Count of Lyon of the Capet family will be your temporary ally in the Plantagenet political arena, with the help of the two of you, I believe that the Sun King will definitely be lost. ”

"Me"

Lord Ofg wanted to say something more, but saw the scarlet streamer flickering not far away, and Master Yuri, the leader of the Winter Wolf Monks who was supposed to be stationed at Fort Courage, walked out of it with a heavy face.

He saw Murphy, stepped forward quickly, and whispered:

"Bad news! The Wolf Blood Holy Sword has fallen.

Our priest had a premonition of bad news related to the god of the north wind three days ago, and after our continuous investigation and confirmation, the holy artifact made of Su's fangs had lost its purity, and it had become a killing object at the hands of the gnolls. ”

"Huh? A holy relic directly related to the gods has fallen? ”

Murphy didn't quite understand the seriousness of the matter, but Lord Ofg, who was also a believer, suddenly widened his eyes, and he was so shocked that he even plucked out a few of his beards, and he exclaimed:

"Didn't the god of the north wind send down an oracle? You must return to the Great Chapel of the North Wind and tell the Winter Wolf Pope of the bad news!

Once the Gnoll enters Nordtov with the Fallen Thing in his hand, it can be used in any large shrine in the territory of the God of the North Wind to directly damage the God of the North Wind's body, which is too serious. ”

"That's what I'm going to do."

Guru Yuri's face was extremely haggard, and he said in a deep voice:

"It is imperative to determine where the fallen Wolf Blood Blade is and where it will be taken, I have anticipated the reaction of the Great Templar of the North Wind to this matter, Governor Murphy, a large number of Winterfang Monks and Winter Wolf Swordmasters will soon be sent to this area, and their goal is to destroy the fallen thing.

I hope that your intelligence network will be able to assist in this matter to the best of its ability. ”

"Of course, I'd love to do that."

Murphy looked worried on the surface, but in fact he was happy in his heart.

Hey, let the wolf girl watch from the wall, and let you stay out of the way, this is a big deal, right?

The god of the north wind is the national god of Nordutov, the god of protector of the country, once Su is hurt, even just a little skin is enough to set off a terrible political storm in Nordrotov, if even the Winter Wolf Church is angry at the wolf girl's inaction, then the young wolf girl is probably only one step away from being ousted by a coup d'état.

It can be expected that the speed of the North Yankee's reaction will definitely be much faster than that of the Plantagenet Kingdom this time.

Wonderful!

Thank you, Jackal brothers, for the divine assistance!

If it weren't for the fact that the two sides had really come to the point where they wanted to beat each other's dog brains out, Murphy would really think that one of the other Gnoll's top executives was definitely his own undercover agent. Well, at least one!

Watching the sad-looking Guru Yuri leave, the Silver Dwarf Lord pursed his lips, pulled Murphy's trouser leg, and said:

"Take the smile from your face, vampire, and sit back and take pleasure in the suffering of others and take pleasure in your own gains, it's wicked."

"Oh, is it really that obvious?"

Murphy put away the smile on his face, and he glanced back at the halfling airship that was rapidly slicing through the sky of the Shadow Valley, which ended in Fort Grit, and was filled with the first batch of Vam barbarian berserkers to enlist.

They were to rush to the land of destiny, where they would sacrifice a merciless slaughter for their gods.

The Vampire Lord whispered:

"Ah, that's a pleasure. Ahem, I mean, sad day. Allow me to retire for now, Lord Ofg, I still have some things to do. ”

"Is it important?"

The silver dwarf asked, and Murphy nodded, saying:

"It's very important, a guest from afar is about to visit my territory, and I, as the host, must personally go to greet it, this is the etiquette of our vampires."

——

"Yo, your condition seems to be good, and you can still eat a lot, it seems that it is not as miserable as you said in the communication."

At the location of the operation and maintenance department of Alpha Company in the real world, Mrs. Shui, wearing a mask, sat on the side of Sister Cement's hospital bed, she looked at the emaciated guy who was holding a box of fruit in front of her and sending it to her mouth, and couldn't help but quip:

"You know, I almost wanted to cry when I thought about your miserable appearance on the way. Cement, you bastard is always going to do weird things, and there's no way to reassure people. ”

"Are you saying that the last time we met, I knocked on a research grant from you?"

The cement sister in a hospital gown glanced at one of her few friends, and she said:

"Remember that, anyway, you're a rich woman and you don't lack that."

"I'm talking about this time!"

Mrs. Water did not take off her mask, but her eyes were serious, and she said:

"You almost played yourself to death, and you said that you wanted to see us before you died. Are you telling the truth? I don't think you're going to die. ”

"It's going to be soon, it won't take more than twenty days."

Sister Cement shrugged her shoulders and said with a strange "none of your business" attitude:

"My journey to death is not what you think, strictly speaking, my soul is not yet decaying, but it no longer matches my body. When I ventured to launch the prototype before, I was destined for this catastrophe.

But you know what? ”

She put down the fruit box in her hand, wiped her mouth with some awkward movements, held Mrs. Shui's hand, and said:

"I've actually been thinking about it for the past few days, and I realized that maybe it was fate."

"Don't make a fuss, you don't believe in this kind of thing."

The Water Lady whispered:

"You only trust your own brain."

"Isn't it a little late for me to believe now?"

Sister Cement grinned, shook her head, and said:

"Those observers tell me that this is not the end of my life, that the real excitement may not come until after death, that I will escape this boring reality and enter another, wilder world, but unlike you 'experiencers', I am going on a journey with no return.

I've bought a ticket and it's non-refundable now.

I'm dying, Awen, but don't worry, I'm not going to leave you, and in another world, we can finally do whatever we want without constraints.

You know, I see it all as a sign.

I don't want to give you fear.

But the truth is, we may also experience what the other world is experiencing, perhaps decades from now, maybe hundreds of years from now.

This is not just a game, while you have fun and satisfaction, you should also focus more on learning the valuable knowledge that exists there.

Time is also intolerant in another world."

"Are you hinting at something terrible?"

Mrs. Water suddenly became vigilant, and she said:

"You guy, can you not be a riddler?"

"I want to say it too, but I'm afraid you'll have to say goodbye to your husband and children after you hear it, these are all confidential, my old cutie."

Sister Cement sighed and said:

"Anyway, let's talk about it over there, you should go back, see you, talk in private, I also ate the fruit you brought, just think you attended my funeral."

Now go back, Awen.

Thank you for taking the plunge to meet me at this time.

I'm guessing we'll meet again over there soon, so remember to make a spot on your team, and it seems nice to be a psyker and learn a different truth from scratch. ”

He yawned, as if he had given an eviction order.

Mrs. Shui bit her lip, but didn't say anything, got up and bent down to kiss her cheek, which was already so thin that she was out of shape, under the surprised gaze of Sister Cement, before turning to leave.

But a few minutes later, the door was pushed open again, and Sister Cement, who had just closed her eyes, turned around in surprise and saw Mrs. Shui, who had gone and returned, coming over with a courier box.

Mrs. Water placed it in front of the hospital bed, took out a distinctive white game helmet from it, and placed it in Sister Cement's arms.

She said:

"It seems that you don't have to wait until you die, it seems that the people over there can't wait to see you, come, bring it, sprout new cement."
