(New Year's Plus ~ Happy New Year everyone~)

"Hey, hey, the spirits wandering here are so strange! How could they be twisted like this? ”

On the destroyed Nord position, the mummy Nifitali is roaming around on her own champion bug Pemba, but she is not running to play, this time it is business.

Murphy specially invited her to come and help the spirits on the battlefield who could not rest in peace.

Probably because of the influence of the subspace atmosphere, the souls on the battlefield could not embark on the path of the dead, and even vampires like Murphy who did not specialize in spell casting felt those cold spirits wandering around, and there were several "haunted" incidents last night.

As a result, the professionals of the Church of the Dead Moon came to take a look, and found that the situation was really a little strange and wrong.

"So, what the hell happened to them?"

Murphy, who was following Nephitali, frowned and said:

"Some of the soldiers were stupefied last night, they said they saw terrible monsters."

"It's really scary, little Murphy, I've been doing this for so long, and I've never seen a spirit twisted like this except in the abyss of resentful spirits in the Mamluks."

Nephitali sighed and jumped from behind the champion bug, flicking a strange spell in front of the vampire's eyes, giving Murphy a temporary "vision" status.

He blinked his eyes and looked at the ruins of the torn earth to see the souls that had been forcibly glued together by external forces, and they had lost the appearance of human souls, replaced by "aggregates" like invisible monsters.

It's hard to describe that form, because the spirit itself doesn't have a fixed form.

But Murphy did see two-headed, three-headed, and weird creatures with no heads but eight legs, and the closer they got to the gap in the subspace, the more distorted the spirits became, and they seemed to be confined to the position and unable to leave.

In Murphy's vision, he could clearly see the "black spots" on the ground.

The place where the burners had died was like chains, locking the howling spirits in place.

"Legend has it that the breath of subspace has all sorts of evil effects, and distorting and restraining spirits is only the most insignificant of them, look! Little Murphy, there is already a weak spirit body that has been invaded by the subspace breath and has begun to transform into a fallen spirit.

It's hard for me to explain the concept of 'fallen spirits' to you in a few words, you just need to know that it's a more terrible thing than a ghost, and that a spirit can be redeemed, but a fallen spirit doesn't. ”

The mummy mother explained a few words in the compassionate tone of the Dead Moon Priest, and then she pulled out a few strange pieces of amber and said to Murphy:

"Now if you don't mind, I'm going to get to work, these spirits are so twisted that I have to bring them back to Sico City for purification. It would have wiped them out, but it was much more merciful than staying here in this form and suffering. ”

"Wait!"

Murphy reached out to stop Nephitali's spirit capture.

He frowned and took a few steps forward, looking at the distorted two-headed spirit in front of him, and he could tell that one of the heads belonged to Colonel Duke, and the other head should be Captain Moritz, Colonel Duke's aide-de-camp.

Both men are true heroes.

According to the players' accounts, they drank the decisive wine in the battle against the Burning Demon Soldiers, and killed the two Demon Soldiers at the cost of their own lives, but their fate was not generous, and the heroes actually fell to such a bleak state.

"Can I talk to them?"

He looked back at Nephitali, and the mummy shrugged her shoulders and said:

"Meaningless, little Murphy, they are not only distorted by their bodies, but also by the consciousness and memory and even existence of the spirits, which are forcibly blended together by the subspace, and the spirits in this state have no reason to speak of.

But if you want to give it a try, there's no problem. ”

After saying that, the little mummy reached out and patted Murphy on the shoulder, and the bandage on her arm wrapped around Murphy's shoulder, beating with the mysterious dead moon rune, giving Murphy the ability to talk to spirits.

"Colonel Duke! Remember me? ”

Murphy asked, and the two-headed spirit in front of him screamed as if it hadn't heard it at all:

"Kill! Kill all the invaders! For the glory of the Winter Wolf Legion! Kill! Long live Nordov."

"Look, I said it, it's hopeless."

Nephitali sighed very humanly and said:

"These soldiers are brave, but unfortunately I wasn't here at the time, otherwise I would have been able to save their souls with the Soul Summoning Ritual."

"But he's angry."

Murphy whispered:

"Even after death he was still angry, he was unwilling to stop fighting, he still wanted to continue fighting the invaders after death, this was probably the last wish of Colonel Duke and Captain Moritz, I think all the soldiers here have similar wishes.

Nephitari, I've read in your Necronomicon that you have the means to make a Colossus of the Dead, and that powerful construct needs an angry and determined spirit.

Can they? ”

"Well, theoretically."

The mummy mother scratched her head, and after a few seconds of thought, said:

"But no one has ever used such a twisted wrath as the core of the Undead Colossus, I can try, anyway, there are a lot of materials in Sike City, but I can't give you a positive answer, but we now have a core scepter of the Mutant Ten Thousand Souls Feast, and I plan to use that thing as the foundation of the underworld in Sike City.

It has all sorts of magical effects that may help these warriors regain a little bit of their senses. ”

"It's okay, let's try it."

Murphy lifted his vision, and looked at the spirit of anger slowly dissipating in front of him, and he turned to Nephitali and said:

"Give these warriors a chance to choose between the soul and the battle, and that is a dignified death, not a silent death like dust.

The Transansians are preparing to build Valhalla, and while these warriors are not as immortal as the Gentiles, their names are undoubtedly eligible to be included in Valhalla, and the names of all those who died in the Black Plague will be engraved on the stone.

As long as Transcia is still alive, the Warriors will not be forgotten! ”

"Well, this attitude towards heroes is correct, we Songhai people do this, it is said that there is also a monument to heaven in the palace of the Dragon Emperor, which is full of the names of heroes and knights of the ancient kingdom of Callum, and the people there regard this as the supreme glory that can be obtained in their lives."

Nephitali whispered:

"Only a country that knows how to respect its heroes can have hope, this is a phrase that Mentor Bayek often says, speaking of Mentor Bayek, I received a secret letter from the Church of the Dead Moon a few days ago.

The Pharaoh has decided to send a solar ship into the Chardo Peninsula, where the war is said to have gone wrong, and we are to meet our vanguard there to prevent the worst. ”

"Huh?"

Murphy blinked, and he immediately thought of the Brass Fortress, which was still in the midst of a lack of information, and said:

"That's important news, it's important to me, thanks, Nephitali."

"Hey, do you have to talk about white teeth when you're grateful? It's a pragmatist Transansian, and it's hard for me to imagine you if you don't have something real, little Murphy. ”

"Hmm, what do you want? I've already brought two specializations to your shamanic school, the Sunwalker and the Wind Rider, and you've benefited from them yourself, haven't you? Little mummy, I know your brain is in water, but that's not a reason for you to be ungrateful. ”

"I want the lightning staff in Tracy's hand! That thing was originally a shaman's goody, and it was a waste of resources for Trisi to hold it, so you hurry up and coax Tris, put her to sleep hard, and then bring me the staff.

I've been hungry for a long time!

Using that thing to assist the Songhai shaman's secret method for secondary processing, it is possible to make a real divine weapon.

So, does Murphy need an aphrodisiac?

We Songhai people are very good at this, I can prepare you with a great medicine, the kind that is specially provided by the Pharaoh's royal family. ”

"Shut up! I'm such a mighty vampire lord, how could I possibly need it. Uh, you said it was made by the Pharaoh? Let's have a few bottles, be prepared. ”

——

"Buzz"

The scarlet door flickered open, and the portal under the personal auspices of the eldest lady Phimes worked very well, unusually smoothly and greatly reduced the risk of astral trek.

But the probability of this kind of thing is always a situation where the face is black, so after a few seconds, a large group of jackals wearing the sacrificial robes of the Plague Clan rushed out to find that there were four people missing.

Before they could complain, in the weird laughter of Mannes the Endless, the four unlucky ones were thrown back into the material world, the kind that hit the ground first, the gnoll player screamed in pain, and one of the unlucky eggs broke his tail when he landed, and the vigorous tail became weirdly curved, and he screamed in pain.

"I said, this thing is too unreliable, when will the development team come up with a truly safe and stable portal system!"

The hapless bastard, whose tail had broken and whose ID was "Half Xuanhemen", got up, leaned on his very evil gnoll bone staff, pulled his dust-stained dark hood, and raised his middle finger at the gloating bastards around him, only to be laughed again.

The ugly guy couldn't help but complain:

"Didn't you say that Lady Triss was good at this?"

"There is no safety in this world's teleportation technique, haven't you heard from the psionic master of the Plague Clan?

Because there is a problem with the mapping of the astral plane and the material world, it is very common for us to follow Lord Murphy, and there is a powerful boss like Men to escort us.

So, stop complaining and get ready to work! ”

The leader of this group of Plague Gnoll players is a guy with the ID "Wang Laoxi", who, like the Wolf under the Moon, decided to follow the Gnoll story route before entering the game.

The adventures of these guys proved to be quite worthwhile, and unlike those who were born in Transasia and were difficult to grow quickly due to the "intensive cultivation" of their predecessors, the resources that these gnolls born in the Dark Mountains could get in the early stage were amazing.

After all, this is an XJ domain that has not been plagued by players, and there are many random events and various legendary ownerless treasures waiting for people to obtain, as long as you are a little lucky, you can grow up quickly.

Wang Laoxie himself found a set of dark warlock suits left behind by tearing flesh from the Plague Valley that is now renamed "Soul Stealing Valley", and with the help of the Plague Clan's Jackals, his current 7 undead minions are all elite monsters of Yishui, and he has already booked a Silver Undead Skeleton Warrior, and he can return to the Soul Stealing Valley contract after his silver trial is completed.

He formed a guild called the "Soul Stealer", and the more than sixty brothers around him were all members of the Soul Stealer, of course, their gnoll's guild form was called "Clan", so Wang Laoxie could also be regarded as the chief of the "Soul Stealer Clan".

Their guild is full of gnolls spellcasters, and because of their abundant resources, their little-known guild has the strength of the budding ones second to none.

"Old evil! Someone is coming, in heaven! ”

A short ancient gnoll necromancer pointed to the sky, Wang Laoxie nodded, made a gesture, and in the next moment, several gnoll players cast spells, summoning a large number of undead vultures to fly into the sky for air defense, but soon they confirmed that the person who came was "their own people".

"Whoosh"

The pig folded its wings and fell from the sky, and the fat vampire stepped forward enthusiastically to shake hands with his gnolly brothers as he landed on the ground.

But Wang Laoxie was very vigilant, he made a gesture to signal the pig to stop in place, and then coughed twice and said the code:

"Palace Jade Liquor?"

"Ahem, sledgehammer eighty, sledgehammer forty!"

"Well, that's right, I'm right."

The old evil nodded with satisfaction, and then stepped forward to shake hands with Hai Zhu.

He was shocked to find that the equipment owned by these more than sixty gnolls was of high quality and terrifying, and the same dark flow style made these ruffian guys gather together like a dynamic social organization, which made people wonder what kind of profession this group of gnolls were doing in reality?

"Don't talk about more, brothers, all the things you want are hidden at the meeting place at point C in the nearby tunnel, and you can pick it up yourself."

Hai Zhu handed over a map to Wang Laoxi, and advised:

"After taking your things, go all the way down Tunnel 9, then change to Tunnel 2 in Bafengte Canyon and continue on, this section of the road is long, but there are no detours that are suitable for you to advance. The end of Tunnel 2 is the Bafengte Earth Palace, where you will do your next work.

Qin Ye has prepared a trading place for you at the No. 11 assembly point above the dungeon, which is in charge of Miss Winnie, the mage of the Red Devil Pavilion of the Blood Vulture Clan.

The overall map of the Bafonte Dadi Palace was also in the hands of Miss Winnie.

That NPC is our brother's 'sister-in-law', and it will regularly sell some rare summoning spells with no restriction on class, so it is very popular among players, so be polite after you pass, it's our own people. ”

"That's it."

Wang Laoxie made an OK gesture with his paws, and with a wave of his hand, more than sixty gnolls necromancers summoned mounts at the same time, and the undead wolf made of bones resembled the skeleton war horse that is currently very popular among players, but it is obviously cooler.

There are also a few guys who have summoned the Bone Wyvern as an air force.

The strength of this group once again impressed Hai Zhu.

Damn, these guys were ridiculed by players when they first chose Gnolls, but now it seems that people are really smart. are all newcomers to the same batch of games, and the quality of Wang Laoxie's equipment can be fought with old players.

Damn, it's really envious, jealous and hateful.

Seeing the Soul Stealer clan leave in the dark, Hai Pig opened the communication of the Calculation Orb and reported to the boss Chenlong:

"The hyena has entered the nest!"

"Huh?"

Chen Long asked suspiciously:

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"Whisper, you idiot president, shouldn't you use code language to communicate in this case?"

Hai Zhu said a little frantically:

"Isn't that your plan? Dog stuff, you forgot it yourself? ”

"Aha, mistake, mistake, now that the matter is done, let's come back, we just received the map of the second and third treasure sites of Mejewa Treasure from Ms. Villanzer, everyone at Fort Courage is ready to go on an adventure."

Chen Long said with some embarrassment:

"I'm discussing the distribution with a few guilds, I'm going to unite a few budding guilds to eat a treasure land alone, these old players are really ruthless, we have to find a way to make up the money, we should return to the Maginot Line after the equipment here, and we have to find a way to improve a wave of strength before the decisive battle."

Anyway, come back quickly, I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning. ”
