As the saying goes, once born and twice cooked.

When confronted again with the subspace rift opened by the Dimensional Diamond, it took Murphy less than five minutes to seal it this time. The reason why it is so fast, in addition to Murphy's skill, is also because the crack in front of him is not really opened, but only a crack is intervened in time.

It can be called a typical example of the successful resolution of the "subspace incident".

As for the Burners who rushed into the material world along the rift and the Chaos eggs who used to maintain the rift, in front of big names like Triss and Shanny, such a small problem was not worth Murphy's own action.

"It's calling to me on the other side, hell."

Triss rubbed her forehead in front of the closed subspace gap, and said to Murphy:

"I can hear its screams, has that guy learned to pretend to be pathetic?"

"It's not necessarily pretending to be pitiful, it's really willing to give everything to make you one with it, but we won't allow that to happen."

Murphy stroked Tracey's cheek with a hand wrapped in omega power, sobering her up from that called state, such a gentle "detoxification" made Xia Ni next to her stomp her foot very dissatisfied, what do you mean by Murphy the dog?

When you were detoxifying the old lady just now, you slapped me directly!

Isn't it different?

Look at me for a while and punch this dog Murphy hard, so that you can feel the power of women's boxing in a physical sense!

"Slow down, tap! Hell, I've got something in my heart, pull it out first. ”

It was only after both the Burner and the Chaos Egg were eliminated that the Blooddread Grand Duke Pablo was released as a sacrifice.

His weakness was not normal, and he was leaning against the burned altar with his heart in his hands.

André put on his gloves with a serious face, and then reached out and clasped the thing that was nailed to Pablo's heart, and with a great effort, a strange wooden nail that almost pierced his body was pulled out at the cry of pain from the bloody captain.

When the thing was taken out, it was still emitting light and heat, causing the surrounding vampires to cover their noses and retreat as if they had seen the hapless god of a vampire.

The first time Murphy had seen something like this work against a vampire, and Trace, who was beside him, explained to him:

"This is the sacred wood nail used by the Songhai hunters of the Land of Origin, made of sun wood and blessed by the priests of the Glorious Sun Church, and is effective against all dark creatures, but it is especially damaging to vampires.

While it can't kill us, it can temporarily seal away our midnight power, and once nailed to the heart, it will leave us immediately weak.

The most troublesome thing is that the effect of this thing doesn't diminish just because you rank up, even if Xia Ni and I are just as weak as when we are nailed into the Holy Wood Spike, but don't worry, the number of real Holy Wood Nails is very small.

It belongs to the category of scorching sun magic weapons, and even the Songhai people cannot manufacture them in batches. ”

"It sounds evil."

Murphy commented with a straight face, and then put the dozen or so holy wood nails that André had pulled out of the hearts of the other blood-feared vampires into his bag without any psychological burden.

Such a useful thing must be put to good use, after all, there are many enemies in the vampire society.

"I knew the Blooddread Clan was composed in a strange way, but I really didn't expect you, the pirate leader, to fall to such a point."

Murphy crouched down, threw a bag of blood to a weak-looking Pablo, and said:

"I was expecting you, the serpent of the land, to help my gnolls in their work, but you yourself are in prison and I have to help you myself. Counting the time you were besieged by the nezumi before, this is the second time that the Blood Vulture Clan has lifted the siege for you, so, Captain, is your performance a little too vegetable? ”

"This time it was an accident, ahem, I was also holding back my strength to show my hand in front of you old families, who knew that I would be betrayed as soon as I came back."

Pablo's face couldn't hold back, and he no longer maintained the posture of "pirate cool cover", and said with a sad face:

"I owe you this time. Claire, don't admire your new clothes, hurry up and retrieve our captured flagship, and then invite our distinguished guests to the ship to talk, it's too frustrating to let your guests stay in such a sloppy place. ”

"What are they going to do?"

Andre helped Pablo to his feet, and pointed to the rebellious pirates who had remained where they were, looking at the captain with fear and dazed eyes, and the Count of White Mountain whispered:

"These people are traitors, and you should punish them."

"Punish Mao, we Blooddread Clan don't do this, if you can't accept a group of crew members who want to overthrow you, then you're not fit for this business."

Pablo sighed, and shouted to his subordinates:

"Get out, follow Claire's first mate to retrieve the flagship!

Hang all the traitors on board the mast until they are sunburned, and as for your treachery, one of you will receive thirty lashes and hand over a third of your treasure, and those who do not want to find a way out in advance, and do not cry out when they are killed by the Blooddread fleet. ”

"Yes, of course I do!"

"Thanks to the captain's great kindness, we can't repay it!"

When the group heard that they didn't have to die once, they immediately became noisy as if they had been pardoned, and they hugged their hot first mate Claire and left here to reclaim the flagship occupied by traitors.

A killing disaster disappeared invisibly.

But it's not that Pablo is merciful, it's that the human pirates' punishment of traitors can't be used against vampire pirates.

Punishments such as walking on the board or dragging the keel mean little to the undead vampire, so in the Blooddread fleet, the most severe punishment for rebellion is the sunburn, followed by the surrender of treasure and caning.

They made quite peculiar whips.

Thirty lashes are enough for a vampire to lie down for ten days and a half a month, and it will leave a scar that represents shame, and this painful experience can teach them to be more rigorous in their next rebellion.

Soon the underground temple fell silent.

It was only then that Pablo looked at Murphy, and he said with a complicated expression:

"You know everything?"

"Well, I know all the things you don't want me to know, the things about the Burners, the big troubles you're facing, and because I know them, I've confirmed that you have no cards to play in this contact.

I mean, it's a tragedy that you're left to slaughter me. ”

Murphy calmly patted Pablo's shoulder, whose face was becoming more and more sad, and said:

"Tell me, how long has the Burning Demon Soldiers been chasing you?"

"It's been more than a year, but it's bitter as if it was a tragedy that happened yesterday."

Captain Bloody pulled out a lame chair and sat down, he took half a bottle of wine from his hand and bit it open, and said as he poured it:

"They appeared out of nowhere on a stormy night, and in the center of the sea they smashed into the deck of my fleet in the form of a burning meteorite, and that night I lost four ships, but failed to kill a single enemy.

That was the beginning of a terrible nightmare.

From that day on, there would be an inexplicable disappearance of the Blooddread Pirates every month, and soon the news spread throughout the fleet, and everyone began to panic, Claire and I were attacked several times in quick succession, and the core members of the Blooddread Clan suffered heavy losses.

We had to make a trip to the Far East, and as I told you before, the astrologers of the Dragon Emperor explained to us the origin of the Burning Demon Soldiers, and made us realize that the sins of two hundred years ago took revenge on the Blooddread clan of this era in a burst way.

A lot of people were terrified, and Werther was just the most extreme of them all.

But don't worry, Werther's rebellion was done in secret from the other factions, and his self-destruction was enough to discourage the weak-willed ones in the fleet.

With this fool's lesson, all Blooddread pirates will know that there is no other way left for us than to fight to the end.

Murphy, you know we're in big trouble, and the Burner will continue, but I don't have enough leverage to ask you to help us who are going to face the scourge of extermination 200 years later."

"Now it's there."

Murphy interrupted the pirate captain, pointing in the direction of Broken Fang's territory, and said:

"Now that the Wave Fishmen are taking advantage of the pirate infighting to attack your port, the panicked pirates above need someone to lead them in a counterattack.

You!

Pablo, you go and lead them!

I don't care what you do, you have to twist the pirates here into a rope as fast as possible, and take them into the assault on the territory of the Broken Fang Clan, and then you will step into the sequence of attacking the Moss Valley.

As long as we kill the Lord of the Hunt, then I promise you that I will do my best to help the Blooddread Clan out of trouble!

Anyway, subspace and I are destined not to be friends, and it's easy to help you, look, I'm generous, right? There's not even any other strings attached, so it's rude for you to say no to me. ”

"Hey, that's enough for you."

Pablo grinned, and the weak vampire pirate muttered:

"You'll see us on the battlefield, but I suddenly feel that Werther is not all bad for this to happen, and rather than wait for the other pirates to be crushed by fear, I'd take a step forward to solve this problem, lest they do something like this again.

It just so happens that the Grand Duke of Blood Vulture and the Grand Duke of Thorns are here, and I, the unworthy Grand Duke of Blood, want to ask the two of you a question as a junior.

If it were the two of you, what would I do in my current situation? ”

In the face of Pablo's humble inquiry, Tracy and Shani glanced at each other, and the two beautiful women made eye contact, and then Tracy whispered:

"If it were me, I would take this opportunity to send the blood of the source of blood fear, and eliminate the calamity and make a good name."

"That's right, we already know that even if you drink the source blood to get rid of the control of the blood contract, as long as you are still a member of the Blood Fear, the Burning Demon Soldiers will not let you go, but the other pirates don't know this."

Glancing at Murphy, Shani added:

"You just need them to participate in the next two battles, just use the freedom that you pirates talk about, if they want to get rid of the vampire's blood pact system, then give them freedom."

"The Burning Demon Soldiers are your common threat, let them try to get rid of the never-ending pursuit on their own, and when they can't find a way, they will naturally come back and beg you."

Murphy also spoke:

"It's a much more useful way than trying to maintain the false unity within the clan at this fateful moment, and those guys think they can do it themselves, and if they do, you can still get rid of the curse.

But to be honest, in my experience with subspace, those Burners are the vanguard of the original sin, which means that until we solve the original sin of the shadows of the subspace, you will not be able to evade the pursuit of the Burners.

But that thing can only move where the subspace aura exists, so the stupidest thing to do is for you to hide in a place where a large-scale invasion of subspace is impossible.

The sea is full of wave-fish people who worship evil gods, and you can't avoid the attacks of subspace creatures, so my suggestion is that you might as well move back to the mainland and learn to be a landlubber again. ”

"Nope! I refuse. ”

Pablo exploded when he heard this suggestion, and he shouted:

"Lao Tzu was born on the sea all his life, and he will die in the sea when he dies, isn't it just the Demon Soldiers of the World, let them come, I won't abandon my pirate career because of such a problem.

But your advice is very damaging and effective, and I should be able to convince the other Blooddread factions to fight with me with Source Blood.

As for the other pirates, let me think

Mossy Valley is a mecca for the Gnolls, so there must be a lot of valuable things there, right? ”

He asked, and Murphy shrugged his shoulders and said:

"That place was a sacred place for the Shadow Elves before it was taken away by the Gnolls, Shadow Elves, you know? They are the richest guys in the world. If pirates want to make a fortune, they have to seek wealth and danger.

Well, you've rested long enough! ”

Murphy took the Night Good Luck shotgun handed over by Andre, gave it to Pablo with both hands, and said:

"Go, unite your pirate army, Hogg is still waiting, Lord Pa Ying is waiting, and even the entire continent is waiting for good news.

Your Excellency, you don't want to let those who have expectations disappointed because of you, do you? ”

"Okay, okay, don't rush, I'm going to get rid of those fools in the nest."

Pablo picked up his favorite gun and took his captain's hat from a flattering vampire pirate, but after taking a few steps he sighed knowingly:

"Oops, I gave the source blood to those bastards under my command, my own fleet is about to fall apart, how can no one in my hands continue to rule my sea? I don't know of any good vampire lord who can give me a little bit of his unafraid of death.

I could even give them a couple of boats as a gift."

"That's what you said, Pablo."

Murphy grinned and said:

"Those bastards are going crazy when they want to go to sea, and when this round of the Black Plague is over, you will get the undead crew you want, and even the fellows of Transncia who go to sea can be attached to your Blooddread fleet, but I don't care about training them and arming them.

Hogg's wolf army also has Gentiles, so you can get in touch with them first.

Gnoll pirates, that sounds handsome, doesn't it? ”

——

"There's news from Master Murphy! Our allies in Bloodraid Harbor are ready, and it will take a day and a half at most for them to enter the territory of the Broken Fang Clan from the rear. ”

In the Broken Tooth Territory, the tent of the Archseer of Bobock, who was polishing their weapons for battle, was opened by the wolf, and Hogg walked in quickly, and said to it:

"Popock, the battlefield of this battle is left to you, you immediately command the Blue Wolf Army to assault in the direction of the coast, and join our allies to hold back the main force of the Broken Fang Clan.

I will personally lead an elite army to the Holy Land.

As long as I get in there, the big picture is decided! ”

"Ah, it's been so long, Lord Virtuous Wolf, I still can't get used to calling a vampire an ally."

Popock complained:

"But I already know the great history of our past under your teaching, you said that we were once the guardians of the whole world, and those pesky vampires were also the objects of our protection, since this is the case, then I reluctantly accept the vampires as my comrades.

It's just that

It's not that I doubt your claims, it's that my stupid sister Nanak has been unwilling to believe the truth you have brought, and many of the warriors in the Blue Wolf Army are stupid but stubborn, and they still believe in the brutal teachings of the false gods of the Lord of the Hunt.

I don't know what's in the Holy Land, but if you can, you must bring out something that is enough to prove our great history. ”

"Look, the brutal war has taught Popok to think, and you're going to do something great in the future, Popok."

Hogg said a few words of encouragement.

It emphasizes:

"All of our problems now can be solved in the Holy Land, provided that we step into it, and you and your army of blue wolves will become the heroes of the next era of the gnolls, Popok.

Hold on!

Protect yourself!

I also look forward to seeing the astonishment on your stubborn old father's face when you return to the Black-Eyed Clan with the supreme glory of the Creator. ”

"Hehe, I'll tell you the truth, I'm looking forward to it too."
