Chapter 128 127 So Is Opening Blind Boxes a Special Way to Play This Game?
Chapter 128 127. So is opening blind boxes a special way to play this game?
Murphy is going to hold a celebration in the ruins of Cadman City tonight.
The reason is to celebrate that the survivors of Cadman City have finally survived the most difficult time, the suffering on this land has finally passed, and a new life is just around the corner.
Of course, there is an important part of the celebration to commemorate the poor people who left in the city disaster. Although not all the missing people have been confirmed dead, to be honest, it is indeed difficult for those ordinary people who are involved in the astral world in large numbers to survive in that mysterious different plane.
Anyway, according to Tris, if you throw a gold-level strongman who is not prepared into the astral world, it is hard to say whether he can survive seven days.
It is a place completely different from the material world, with a completely different environment and rules. Even a psychic master like Tris has a very limited understanding of it, and only what is known so far is enough to make a regrettable judgment.
For example, Tris had clearly told Murphy that the spatial and temporal mappings in certain places in the astral world were disordered, and this alone was enough to kill 99% of the life in the material world.
But these were not the issues Murphy needed to consider at this time, especially tonight!
He had to fulfill his duties as a lord, not only to protect the personal safety of his subjects, but also to take care of their spiritual needs.
The night was getting darker and dusk was approaching.
Under the leadership of the camp guards, the strong survivors began to move some long tables made by carpenters into the cleaned city square in the outer city.
The chefs in the camp were busy here since the afternoon under the leadership of the chief chef Franks Shawan.
They set up the big pot that the little players had found in the city, and were throwing some dried meat, beans, wild fruits and high-end seasonings found in the ruins of the city restaurant into it to cook. This was the free food that would be provided to all participants in tonight's celebration.
It smelled good, but the taste was barely okay.
But considering that this stuff is provided for free, don't ask for too much.
There were also some chef apprentices making grilled fish nearby. These fish were caught by the fishermen in the camp this morning in the nearby river. Some of them were the result of the efforts of senior fishermen. In the camp on weekdays, this thing is a "special ration" and needs to be exchanged for labor points. Tonight, it is also free.
But each person only has half a fish.
The leader of the gatherers in the camp, Ms. Pallen Fedor, a big and strong woman, is directing her girls to pour the berries picked from the forest into a large barrel, wash them, and then put them on the long table with bamboo baskets.
These will be the side dishes for tonight's celebration.
Farther away, several young men from Maxim's Cadman Self-Rescue Army drove donkey carts, moving barrels of wine and water stored as "strategic resources" from the cellar below the defense line and transporting them to the square.
It was just the most ordinary wine and water.
But the current scene has aroused the greed of many drunkards, making them follow the donkey cart with a smile on their faces to help.
Murphy decided to hold tonight's celebration in the form of a buffet to get as many people as possible to participate. This is a way to maximize efficiency, and it is not his original idea. This kind of celebration already exists in the Transian region, so the survivors in the camp are very skilled in their work under the command of the old man.
Miss Miriam announced in the camp at noon that there would be no work this afternoon and evening, so even though the celebration has not yet begun, the ruins of the city are already full of people.
Some are helping in the square, and some children are running and playing carefree in the crowd. Some people go to their former residences together and send a rough candle to the ruins to commemorate the past.
Laughter and crying echoed again at dusk, making Murphy, who was standing on the collapsed city wall watching this scene, a little silent.
"There used to be 150,000 people in Cadman."
Beside him, the fully armed Maxim took off his mask and sighed in an emotional tone:
"Now there are only so few left."
"But they are still alive!"
Murphy held the evil hilt of the necessary evil at his waist and said softly:
"So, this is something worth celebrating. Surviving death is the greatest luck. Whether they are willing or not, they will have to carry the hopes of those who have passed away and continue to live here.
Rebuild the city and rebuild their hometown."
Maxim nodded.
He was absolutely convinced by Master Murphy's words, and he was also a little nervous and expectant at this time, because after tonight's celebration, it would be the time for him to complete his first embrace.
From now until midnight, it will be his last time to wander on this land as a human.
"Go, say goodbye to them, and say goodbye to human life."
Murphy said.
Maxim hummed and turned to leave. Murphy reminded him:
"Don't wear your armor and don't care about your face. Go openly. They all know you, they all know your name, they have heard about your struggle and rescue in the city. You are their defender, and you deserve respect.
Others can call you a monster, but you can't think so yourself."
"Don't worry, sir."
Maxim said as he walked down the wall:
"I no longer think so, and 'monster' is no longer a sarcasm to me. It is more like a compliment for my uniqueness and difference."
After the loyal servant left, as the wind blew and the blood wings folded, Mrs. Adele fell from the sky and landed accurately next to Murphy.
She reported in a low voice:
"Sir, a total of 122 people who are unwilling to stay have already set off. Director Miriam has sent guards to escort them to Morland Village, where the witch hunters are camping."
"Let them be."
Murphy looked intently at the children playing in the square in the distance and said:
"People without a sense of belonging are never important. They are meaningless to this land. Rootless duckweed individuals are meaningless to anyone. I heard that you picked from Maxim Three heirs?”
"Well, the few surviving guys from the traitor Jed's group are all in bad condition. I selected the three best women among them and formed a blood contract with them. Maxim has also selected Three as his future servants and heirs.
The last four were handed over to Ms. Bonnie, and Mrs. Tracey needed to reorganize her chief's guard. These guys were originally selected by Jade from the reserves of the chief's guard. "
Mrs. Adele finished her report, and then whispered:
"But when I went through the ceremony of signing the blood contract, I truly realized how precious you gave me in that first embrace. I must thank you again, Master Murphy."
"It makes me sad that it took so long for you to thank me."
Murphy made a joke and shook his head, saying to Adele:
"You were once an excellent stalker and rogue, so next I hope you can become the 'professional trainer' of my warriors, helping those warriors who are interested in walking the path of shadows to better explore their talents. strength.
You can step down as soon as Lord Pallenor's retinues come to us.
In addition, I will give this thing to you as your new responsibility in the Blood Eagle Clan. "
He took out the miser's seal, placed it in Mrs. Adele's hand, and said:
"You were once an excellent steward of Femis, and now you are the steward of the entire Blood Eagle Clan. There will also be a dedicated accountant in Miriam's camp to deal with you. Please pay more attention to this aspect.
Tris also wants to complete the rewards for you, Maxim and Bonnie tonight, so I want to ask, do you have any requirements for your territory? "
"Requirements. Actually, I don't have much demand for power."
Mrs. Adele put the scarlet seal ring on the little finger of her right hand and watched it turn into an exquisite and simple blood stone tail ring. She hesitated and said:
"But if I could, I'd like to have my own territory near the Foul Swamp."
"That's not a good place. It's more like being sent to the frontier than a reward."
Murphy glanced at his heir in surprise, and then asked:
"Is it related to your life experience? I heard you say before that your mother left you something?"
"Not inheritance, my lord, but my birthplace."
Mrs. Adele could now share her deepest secrets with Murphy without any worries. In the light of dusk, she brushed her long hair and whispered:
"It is a hidden valley near the barren mountains further south of the Filthy Swamp. It is on the outermost edge of the Dark Mountains. It is full of mixed elves like me. Our origins are very complicated and cannot be explained in a few words.
But it had been there for nearly sixty years, and my mother had been one of the leaders there.
I would like my territory to be near there so that I can more conveniently serve your cause in the future. "
"How many people are there?"
Murphy blinked and asked, and Mrs. Adele raised three fingers and said:
"There were still three thousand people there when I left, but twenty years have passed. I can't answer you what it is like now."
"That's thirty places."
Murphy quickly completed the conversion in his mind, nodded, and assured Adele:
"I will discuss this matter with Tris. You don't have to worry for the time being. After the ruins are rebuilt on the right track, I promise you that I will dedicate a force to help you fulfill your wish."
"No need, Master."
Adele shook her head stubbornly and said:
"I can do this kind of thing myself. Because of some historical reasons, my tribe is quite exclusive. Contact with them cannot be rushed."
“But maybe create external opportunities?”
Murphy whispered:
"After all, the Black Disaster is coming, isn't it?"
Adele's eyes suddenly lit up.
She nodded but said no more about this topic. A few minutes later, as the hovering figure of the blood-eating vulture Revno appeared in front of Murphy's eyes, the vampire lord moved his shoulders and spread his blood wings in the dusk.
He said to Adele:
"Go and enjoy tonight's celebration, in the way you are accustomed to. I have to go see my warriors. They have been looking forward to today for too long, and I can't keep them waiting."
——
As the familiar light spots converged into stars and dissipated in the blink of an eye, the little players who were resurrected after three days of death opened their eyes almost at the same time.
They once again returned to the game world they were used to and liked, but this time they resurrected not next to the familiar Lord Murphy, but in another place.
The huge and empty underground warehouse was clearly the area where the tribune Kudel used to house the survivors in the Blood Eagle Corridor, but it has been renamed the "Midnight Chamber" to serve as the save point for the young players in the Novice Village.
With the official opening of the territory system and the recovery of the Blood Eagle Corridor, Murphy also placed the first "birthplace" of the players here.
Of course, as his territory gradually develops, the save points of the young players can also be chosen by them.
Perhaps as long as they talk to the special NPCs in various places in the territory, they can complete the binding. The only regret is that there is no magical hearthstone in this world that can allow them to return to the city instantly. Well, it's not that there is no such thing, but there was no demand for it before. After all, astral travel is not a safe thing.
But for young players, it's really great to be able to return to the city quickly with a little risk, so maybe we can ask "Dora Cuisi" to study this aspect?
It would be even better if we could get a scroll to return to the city or something!
"There's a celebration outside tonight! It must be very lively, let's go!"
It was the first time that Xiao Ashina experienced resurrection. She patted her "novice suit" with great curiosity and disdain. She dragged Lumina out of the warehouse and saw a "locker"-like thing at the door.
The names of the players were on it. It was locked with a simple psychic spell, just like a smart lock, unlocked with a fingerprint.
Xiao Ashina quickly found her personal locker, opened it, and took out the equipment she was wearing before her death, especially the two scarlet revolvers that she bought at a high price, which she still loved.
After quickly changing into equipment, the noisy little players quickly left the save point.
Most of them were not as interested in tonight's celebration as the female players. What they really cared about was the rewards they could get after a hard battle.
The surviving Wu Miaoge, Che Che and Niu Niu were also waiting for them outside the warehouse at this time. It was the task prompt that asked them to come here to receive the rewards.
Just as the little players gathered in front of the birth point, they saw a pair of huge blood wings spread out in the shadows in front of them, and then the handsome and handsome Lord Murphy folded his wings and glided down, landing in front of them in an elegant posture.
"My warriors! Welcome back to your second homeland!"
Murphy opened his arms with a smile, and announced to the little players in front of him with the enthusiasm unique to NPCs:
"I announce to you, my most trusted and lovely warriors, with great joy and satisfaction: our crusade against Sarokdar was a great success! Our new territory has finally survived the most difficult time under your inexhaustible courage to defend it!
And with this, I can also give my insignificant gratitude to the real warriors.
Accept the thanks from Cadman City and the Blood Eagle Clan with an open heart, warriors of the dark night, this is what you deserve!"
As Murphy's voice fell, the light sound of Ding Ding Ding sounded on the player's character interface, which was the wonderful sound when the task was completed:

"Yeah!!!"
The crowd suddenly burst into cheers.
The news of the arrival of fashion, titles, physical rewards and the new version made the players cheer, but the six-member group of Wu Miaoge in the crowd looked at the prompt to claim the Blood Vulture Clan Treasure Box, and these guys felt an uneasy feeling in their hearts.
"Zhao! Open a blind box!"
Succubus Old Qu scolded:
"How can a good planner have such a dog face! Do you have to show off such a bad work? Can't you just give a fixed weapon or equipment three or four choices of rewards? You have to gamble on luck, right?"
"Think about it in a positive way."
The pretender who joined the group later didn't realize the seriousness of the problem at this time. This cousin said very optimistically:
"Maybe our luck exploded today?"
Murphy, who was surrounded by young players and heading to the Blood Eagle Secret Treasure House, glanced at the six-member group of Wu Miaoge in the crowd.
Hey, it was you guys who called me "dog planner" just now, right? I heard it all!
Very good!
Very courageous!
Make another note in the little notebook of "Book of Hate"!
Let you see what a real dog planner is!
If the six of you can become famous today, I Murphy will write Cui Si's name upside down!
