Chapter 242 241 The Stupidity of a Reckless Man Always Brings Him More Opponents

Chapter 242 241. A reckless man’s stupidity will always bring him more opponents.

The players set off back to the Scarlet Castle early the next morning. It would take two days and three nights to transport a large amount of supplies from here, which made the players madly complain about how hard-core and realistic the game was in this regard.

You said it would be great if you opened a portal and let everyone return to the main city directly!

It’s not like we have to waste time on the road like now.

Fortunately, there are still some wandering gnolls along the way, so there is nothing to do. A few points can be used to pass the boring travel time.

However, those Wolfsbane cubs who were captured last night have been sent back to Scarlet Castle one step ahead of schedule.

Because the matter was so important, they were personally escorted by Hunting Baron Kudel. These guys were sent to the Blood Vulture Corridor before the first ray of dawn arrived.

Murphy and Trish got the news in advance.

But it was not the two of them who came to receive these prisoners, but the cold-faced commander of the Knights of the Blood Alliance in Transia, the Silver Bow Knight Ms. Leonia Galanord Cappadocia.

Clearly, Murphy was up to a trick.

He did not intend to personally accuse the Wolfsbane Clan of colluding with the Gnolls to subvert the Scarlet Castle to the Knights of the Blood Alliance. He knew very well that the truth would only make sense if the right person personally discovered it.

Miss Bow Knight is also happy to play the role of "torture officer" at this time.

Judging from the coldness radiating from this lady's body, she obviously has "opinions" on the Wolfsbane clan intervening in the situation in Transia in this way at this time, and she also talked about "torture" among the vampires. With his art, even the best blood torturer of the Blood Vulture Clan can only submit to the arrogant descendant who can directly smell the sin.

As long as Lenia thought about it, these Wolfsbane captives in front of her would definitely tell them honestly even how many lovers their own mother had.

Of course, this process will be accompanied by indescribable pain, which is the inevitable punishment for committing crimes and being exposed, but this is not what Lord Murphy needs to worry about now.

He is currently waiting in the Blood Vulture Corridor to welcome the eldest lady and her group who have returned from successfully completing their mission.

"Adele, there is a new blood rat gang in the sewers. The leader is Dorothy. They have some abilities and may be of great use in the future, so they are under the control of your Shadow Intelligence Agency."

Murphy put his hands behind his back and ordered his vampire butler:

"Now there is a 'big job' in the hands of the Blood Rat Gang. I need you to take over immediately and be personally responsible for the next actions. Dorothy will introduce you to the specific situation."

"As you command, Master Murphy."

Mrs. Adele nodded, and then quickly disappeared into the shadows of the corridor.

As Transia's first intelligence director, she occasionally guest-starred as Lord Murphy's housekeeper. She was always busy with a lot of things. This trip with the eldest lady to West Corridor was regarded as "administrative leave" for her. "Yes.

She should probably thank the unknown Lady Cecilia for training her over the past many years, so that she has long been accustomed to the identity and thinking of an outstanding lieutenant to assist the superiors in their actions.

"Count Andrei, you and your servants can rest in the cloister for a few days, but there are still important tasks entrusted to you next."

Murphy then said to Earl White Mountain, whose status in today's Transia is quite "delicate":

"In addition, my consul is negotiating aid with officials from Nordtov's Ministry of Finance in Bataxin City. I heard Miriam report that the remaining members of the White Mountain Faction of the Thorn Clan will also arrive in Bataxin City in the near future. .

As their leader, I think you should go and greet them in person.

I will demarcate an 'embassy area' for you midnight exiles in the Blood Vulture Corridor. When my city reaches a certain scale, I will also build a diplomatic residence for you that is not exquisite but is definitely sufficient. . "

"Thank you for the reminder, Count Murphy. This matter is very important to me."

Andre thanked Murphy with impeccable royal etiquette, and said to Murphy with a hint of "gratitude" that may or may not have been present:

"At the same time, I would also like to thank the Blood Eagle Clan for accepting us, a group of losers who have nowhere to go, during this precarious time for us."

"You're welcome."

Murphy waved his hand and replied in a gentle and distant tone:

"In the face of a situation like the Black Disaster, everyone should work together to achieve a win-win situation. What's more, the alliance formed by Grand Duke Shani and Grand Duke Tris is enough for us to treat each other as 'brothers' at this moment. What I mean is that these words are out of context. There is no need to say more.

Be prepared.

The brothers Blood Eagle and Thorn will face a common enemy next. You will know the specific actions soon, and I am also looking forward to your performance on the battlefield. "

Earl Baishan nodded and left the entrance of the corridor with his servants.

Needless to say, the dozen vampires headed by "Scarlet Widow" Mary who followed Femis all had their own responsibilities in the Scarlet Castle, and they did not dare to do anything in front of the increasingly authoritative Murphy. escape.

There was no need for the Governor to give orders at all, these guys just took the initiative to disperse and do their work.

So only Murphy and Femis were left at the entrance of the corridor. Murphy made a "please" gesture, Femis nodded and went first, and Murphy followed half a body behind.

"I must report to you that Andre behaved very well during this long journey."

The eldest lady said softly to Murphy:

"Unfortunately, I didn't find any opportunities to exploit throughout the journey. He is very smart. He knows his situation and does not overstep his boundaries. He is like a cunning little mouse."

"It doesn't matter. We will seize the opportunity sooner or later. We can wait patiently for a long time. Andre, who is walking on thin ice, only needs one mistake to fall into despair. The advantage is on our side!

What's more, in the current situation, these Yankee exiles who are dependent on others are no longer a big problem."

Murphy sighed and told Femis what he had just learned about the peace between the Wolfsbane Clan and the local jackals.

The eldest lady's expression after hearing this was quite wonderful.

She couldn't help but ask back:

"So is old Edward crazy? Why would he choose to cooperate with the gnolls at this juncture? And is he secretly supporting a dangerous gnoll warlord? Isn't he afraid that Lord Paying will come to cause trouble in person?"

"According to Tris, this may be a faction within the Wolfsbane Clan going it alone, just like the stupid behavior of Andre's White Mountain faction in Batasi City."

Murphy answered cautiously:

"I think Tris's guess is probably correct, and this matter should have little to do with old Edward.

However, there is another possibility. Grand Duke Wolfsbane may have known all this from beginning to end, but he is obviously choosing to play dumb. After all, whether the Gray Claw faction succeeds in destroying us alone or the restless subordinates are eliminated, he will have a satisfactory harvest.

A standard tactic of blocking both ends.

But this is a hot potato for us, and we can't help but take it now.

No The good news is that my warriors and the Cadman People's Army have come to the end of the cleansing of the gnolls in the Dark Barony, and they have won an indisputable victory!

They will need a day or two to regroup.

After the witch hunters have cleared the gnolls in the Moreland Barony, I will lead the army into your territory, and we will compete with the ambitious gnoll warlord in the Undermar Hills.

The battle is a decisive battle!

We can't fight a war of attrition with them, and you will be the absolute core in this battle.

"Huh?"

Femis looked at Murphy in surprise, and she said:

"I know that it is my territory, but Murphy, I don't even have a decent armed blood servant under my command, and there is no rule over the Undermar Hills at all. You said I was the core of the battle, which I can't understand.

"You don't have to try to understand, because we have a new plan this time.

Murphy smiled mysteriously.

He stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of Tris' office. When Femis walked in, he saw the Blood Eagle Archduke, who always liked to slack off, concentrating on studying a complex psychic model.

The jumping scarlet light spots floated in front of her, forming a miniature mapping of psychic spells nested in circles, which looked like she was solving a super difficult geometry problem.

Tris frowned at this time, trying to reorganize and complete the creation of a new psychic spell from these complex spell mappings.

This is completely unimaginable for ordinary psychics, but for a psychic master like Tris, it is just a slightly "difficult" subject.

How to say it?

Anyway, after Tris recovered her strength, Murphy had never seen Tris use ordinary psychic skills in several battles. All the skills used by the Blood Eagle Archduke were her "original" fighting style.

Although most of them are based on the psychic power of ordinary schools with minor modifications, this kind of behavior that can create a unique skill tree for oneself according to one's own fighting style is generally called "super genius"!

Murphy looked at all this with satisfaction. He felt that his "girlfriend" was perfect except that she was too "mature" because of her age.

And Femis' eyes widened.

She looked at the mysterious operation of Tris in front of her. As a high-level psychic, she could only find a little bit of ideas and tracks from those strange operations. She could barely see that the purpose of this super complex technique was to break a certain "isolation".

"I heard that there is a hard condition in the promotion assessment of the psychic master of the Ring Tower, that is, the high-level psychic must complete the development of a new psychic as their "sacrifice" to the secret of psychic power and pray for more power and wisdom."

Murphy stood behind Femis.

He stretched out his hands and placed them on the shoulders of the short Femis. This scene was very much like the way brothers and sisters get along. He said to the dumbfounded eldest lady:

"Look! The task you need to complete is right in front of you. Tris will serve as a 'specially invited mentor' to guide you to complete this psychic secret that belongs only to you. The moment it is released for the first time in this world, you will be qualified to proudly call yourself a 'psychic master'.

Oh, right.

I have given a name to this psychic secret that is about to be born.

Tris and I agree that we should call this unborn legion-level psychic spell 'Cataclysm'!

If you think this name is too serious, then we can use a more playful name."

The vampire lord grinned, and under Tris's pouting gaze, he stared at the complex psychic models that he could not understand at all, and said:

"We can call it the 'Youth Mini Light Luxury Version of the Star Ripping Spell'."

"Well, let's continue to call it 'The Great Disaster'."

Femis said with a twitch in the corner of his eye:

"The cynicism and joy of the second name may be too early for a traditional vampire like me, but I guess your warriors will definitely like its playful naming method that reveals danger.

They always flock to everything 'abnormal'.

I will try my best to complete this mystery, but there is one thing I want to report to you and Tris, Murphy.

About my discovery in the Earldom of Xi Ke"

"Well, this matter can be put aside for later."

Murphy said to the two The lady who was about to start working said goodbye politely, shaking her head and saying:

"It's a bit too ugly to discuss how to occupy that piece of land when the real owner of Xike Territory hasn't appeared yet. It's not too late to talk about this as a winner after resolving the war in Earl Undermar Territory.

Therefore, I, an unlearned summoner, will not disturb the two super scholars from delving into the mysterious secrets of psychic energy.

See you later."

--

"That's what happened, Lord."

Thirty minutes later, in a dark room in the Blood Eagle Corridor.

Ms. Leonnia, who had just finished the torture, was reporting remotely to her direct superior, the third knight lord of the Blood Alliance Knights, "Arrow of Punishment" Yvette Liad Cappadocia, through a blood-colored crystal.

She told her lord all the information she had tortured from the wolf poison captives, and after several seconds, a lazy and hoarse female voice came from the blood crystal.

"So, you have evidence that the Gray Claw faction of the Wolfsbane Clan is colluding with the Jackals? Do you know what this means?"

"Yes, sir."

Liannia replied sternly:

"This kind of behavior should be despised at ordinary times, let alone at this moment when the Black Disaster is approaching, it can be called "betrayal on the battlefield"! The leader of the Wolfsbane faction actually made peace with the enemy of order in order to eliminate the remnants of the Blood Eagles. They must be severely punished.

And I am willing to complete this punishment in the name of the Lord and the Blood Alliance Clan!"

"So, do you need me to send troops to support you? You have There are only thirty reserve knights and the same number of blood followers. Facing a powerful warlord, it is difficult for these people to play any role. "

The third lord on the opposite side yawned, which made people think a lot. She said in a slightly strange rhythm of panting:

"But I can't mobilize many knights now. The situation near the outer defense area of ​​the Dark Mountains has begun to deteriorate. Leonnia, you know our responsibilities and our work. Work harder!

Haven't you eaten? You pathetic guy. "

"."

Hearing the scolding, Leonnia, who tried to maintain her seriousness, couldn't help rolling her eyes.

Of course she knew what her lord was doing.

Just like Tris complained that the three knight lords of the Blood Alliance Knights were all psychopaths, the loyal bow knight had to admit that Grand Duke Tris's complaints in this regard were completely correct.

Lord Palano's pursuit of "pure love" regardless of occasion is at most inappropriate, but the third lord's corrupt personal lifestyle is obviously more serious, so serious that their subordinates have to cover up for the third lord.

And the most terrifying thing is that the promiscuous third lord will not only look for those handsome men, she will not let go of beautiful women, and she is simply ruthless in terms of appetite.

However, considering the "origin" of the third lord, this "bad habit" is not surprising.

After all, the third lord of the Blood Alliance Knights is a shadow elf, which is recognized by all forces on this continent as the most "playful" race, no one else! Yvette is already a "conservative" among the shadow elves, at least she only "plays" with humanoid creatures that she recognizes.

Therefore, for Leonnia herself, being able to come to the Scarlet Castle "on a business trip" at this time is not just as simple as relaxing.

She felt that she could almost be regarded as "escaping from the devil's cave" with a stopwatch.

The reason for this is that she is one of the few people under the Third Lord who has not succumbed to "sexual harassment in the workplace", but the problem is that the Third Lord, who was born as a shadow elf, is obviously very "interested" in "severely humiliating" her, a once noble moon elf, on certain occasions.

Alas, it's embarrassing just to say it out loud

"I know you are under great pressure right now, so I'm not asking you to send troops to support our battle in Transya. I'm just asking for your permission to formally participate in the cleansing war that the Blood Eagle Clan is currently carrying out."

Liannia tried to ignore the strange "voice-over" and said to her direct lord very seriously:

"My reserve knights and I will participate in the punishment of the Wolf Poison Clan as a force under Lord Murphy, and I will temporarily transfer the command to Lord Murphy."

"Okay!"

The voice of Ms. Yvette with satisfaction came from the blood crystal stone, and she said softly:

"But be careful and don't cause unnecessary casualties. In addition, I need you to come back in person in a few days to report on your work. I also prepared a very "beautiful" dress for you"

"Sir! This is complete workplace sexual harassment. Lord Pa Ying will punish you for it! And last year alone, you were punished for this problem 245 times!

I think even if you are a shadow elf with bad character, you should learn a lesson from those whips."

"Isn't that better? The thought of the Lord's majestic and handsome appearance and demeanor makes my whole body hot.

Think of his punishment.

Ah, let the hot long whip fall with pain. The more intense the pain, the more wonderful pleasure it will bring. It's best if the Lord himself can do it. Hmm, my feeling comes."

"Snap"

When the voice of the third lord became high and sharp, the communication of the blood crystal stone was decisively hung up by the expressionless Leennia in time.

She felt that if she listened any further, she would suffer from irreversible "mental pollution".

"He is so fierce and cold on the battlefield, like a deadly god of death, why is he so corrupt in private? Is the rumor true?"

The Silver Archer Knight put away his blood crystal stone and couldn't help but complain in his heart:

"It is said that because Lord Paying's ancient bloodline is too powerful, the descendants he personally transformed are unable to withstand the power enhancement from the source of the blood clan, which will make all kinds of strange habits appear in any blood descendants who accept the Lord's first embrace.

All three knight lords are like this.

So, is this the price of gaining power?

It feels really terrible."

Thinking about the indecent rumors about the superiors, the archer with a stern face pushed open the door of this secret room.

As expected, Lord Murphy was waiting for her outside the door.

Through the view opened by the crack in the door, Murphy could see several wolf poison captives who had become strange glass-like stone statues in the dark. This was the first time he saw "eternal silence" in this unique form.

"The sins they awakened burned their wills, burning all their vitality from the inside out, and ushering in eternal silence in extreme pain.

This is the unique power of the descendants of pride.

It sounds very similar to the emotional ignition of the Thorn Clan, but the two are not the same thing. Ours can only be used on people who are carrying sins, and the number of times is limited within a certain period of time. It is very convenient for torture, but it is not as effective as the Thorn Clan's talent in combat."

Liannia explained, and then said to Murphy in a knight's manner:

"The sin of Wolfsbane has been confirmed!

In the name of this unforgivable rebellion, the reserve knights under the command of the third lord of the Blood Alliance Knights apply to join the punishment war against the jackals and the Wolfsbane Clan! Please allow me, Lord Murphy."
