My players are so fierce

Chapter 516 515. Long live, Murphy and his Aunt Shani are having a secret affair

The first game of the "Governor's Challenge", the finale of this Holy Blood Festival, came to an end. Although it didn't last long, the battle between the pair of forties was full of challenges and topics from the beginning.

Murphy's performance did not disgrace the Transians.

Especially at the last moment, less than five seconds before and after Mrs. Tris's enhancement fell, the cool scene of His Excellency the Governor resolutely responded with a super-wide "Dimension Slash" made everyone who saw this scene They all shouted outrageously.

A layman would think that Mr. Murphy was cheating, but for an expert, the move just now revealed a lot.

"You chose the astral guardian for yourself?"

When Murphy returned to the lounge, he was not surprised to see Mrs. Shani leaning against the door. The golden assassin was playing with her double braids and looking at Murphy with a "terrible" look.

she says:

"Which astral demigod is it? I just saw a vague spiritual vision of a snake, so is it the descendant of the astral dragon? 'Rain God' Li Ji?"

"No, Your Excellency Li Ji's rumored ex-boyfriend."

Murphy shrugged.

There is absolutely no need to hide this kind of thing. For the powerful, the identity of the Endless One can be locked through the characteristics when it releases its power.

"Oh, Mannis the Endless."

Shani is obviously a well-informed vampire prince. She immediately captured the information she needed in Murphy's teasing answer. Her eyes changed for a few moments and she said:

“But that seems to be an evil demigod from the chaotic alignment?

How did you get involved with such a difficult guy? And don’t you know? The relationship between Mannis and other demigods is very poor, and becoming its collaborator means that you will not get assistance from other demigods in the astral realm.

How could you, being so shrewd, make such a choice?

I'm curious. "

"Isn't it enough power for me?"

Murphy was obviously unwilling to tell the terrible fact that he was deceived by a snake, so he blinked and said to Shani in a pretentious manner:

"You don't think that the acceleration and slowness I just used are all the power Mannis gave me, do you?"

"Oh? Did it give you more?"

Shani became interested and asked:

"Is it the kind of powerful force that can directly change the trend of the battle?"

"um, yes."

Murphy opened the door to the lounge and said casually:

"Even you will be played by me when you are unlucky. Speaking of which, do you want to try it?"

He asked in a teasing tone, Shani shrugged and said:

"I don't mind playing with you little guy, but I think Tris will be jealous. Considering that this is the territory of the Scarlet Witch, I don't want to go too far, so let's do it next time, when it's just you and When I'm here, I don't mind showing you how hot our Thorn Clan girls can get.

You, a young man, may not be able to withstand the wrath of an old aunt like me.

Although I also know that it is a terrible sin to disturb a vampire's joy during the duration of Holy Blood Festival, but the situation is such that we must get down to business, Murphy.

Regarding the verification of the last incident and your jackal servant Hogg, I must get a satisfactory answer from you. "

"Of course, it's necessary."

Murphy's expression became serious.

He invited Shani into the rest room to talk in detail, but before even making a cup of tea, Tris entered the lounge with a cold face without knocking.

Obviously, she was very dissatisfied with the "secret meeting" between Murphy and Shani.

However, the news brought by Mrs. Shani was so important that Tris had no choice but to sit in Murphy's arms in front of Shani, just like declaring sovereignty.

This action made Shani blink her eyes strangely. She looked at Tris and Murphy with a subtle smile. With very precise control, she took out a document and handed it to them before Tris became angry. .

After arousing Tris's anger, she actually got down to business.

This damn Yankee succubus!

"I went to the Thieves Guild headquarters on the Genoa Peninsula, used my influence and received the support of several Steam Lords, and was able to view secret documents from recent decades."

Shani sat leaning on the chair in a gentle and dignified posture as a wife. She held hot tea and blew it while whispering:

"The list of confirmed stolen remains has been sorted out. This information is recorded in the documents in your hands. Last time I said that 8 golden remains were stolen. Now this information needs to be corrected.

Three of them have been recovered and decontaminated. "

"Um?"

This news made Tris and Murphy look at each other, and the Scarlet Witch asked:

"Who did it?"

"A league."

Shani didn't hide it, she said seriously:

"We are not the only ones who have discovered that the remains of the dead are stolen at dusk. Those inheritor families who have lost their ancestors' remains have secretly formed a loose organization. They have a common goal, which is to regain the desecrated remains of their ancestors.

The group conducted two successful hunts and victories seven years ago and four years ago. Unfortunately, after that, Dusk's trail became more subtle and difficult to trace.

I talked with their representatives in the Cato area. They call themselves the 'Hermes Rangers' and are composed of members of six ancient families whose peace has been disturbed by their ancestors, as well as many peripheral members.

Base camps are at Cato and Greene Island.

After confirming my identity and the information I brought, they said they could cooperate with us on this matter. "

"Hermes? Isn't that an island city in the north of the Antani region? It is said that that city has been unwilling to obey the leadership of King Louis and was denounced as a 'traitor island' by the Plantagenet Kingdom."

Tris asked:

"So, these are Kate people?"

"Well, some of them are staunch Greene Zionists, and their behavior is quite rough. They even planned the assassination of King Louis. But because His Majesty understands the importance of security, the Helms people There hasn’t been much progress in our actions.”

Mrs. Shani brushed the ends of her hair and said:

"They should have a common language with you, and as for me, I would love to see them enter into a partnership with the Nordtov Royal Intelligence Service. Well, I know you don't like politics, so let's get back to the matter itself.

I have informed the Helms Rangers about the remains of the powerful man stolen in the eastern part of the central area of ​​the continent. They said that they will try to send an elite team into Transia in the near future to assist us during the Black Disaster. Chasing the traces of that 'source'.

In addition, through my verification, I can confirm that there are indeed different factions in the dusk, and the source should be responsible for all matters related to the undead.

Because the source of what the Helms Rangers have traced over the past ten years can all be attributed to that ‘source’.

Best of all, I got some unverifiable tidbits. "

Shani narrowed her eyes, she stared at Tris and said:

"A veteran of the Helms Rangers told me that she confirmed that the 'Source' is a vampire, and a vampire from the Blood Vulture Clan! That guy has a pair of amazingly large wings. So, Tris, are you hiding it? What information do I have?”

"No!"

Tris replied calmly:

"If there is, I will tell you, Shani, we are partners now."

"Haha, let me think so."

Shani didn't dwell too much on this matter. She wrote all the information about Helms Ranger on the file. When Murphy looked down at the file, the Golden Duke talked about the second thing.

"I talked with that Hogg in Batasin City, and I have to admit, Murphy, your ability to train the gnolls is simply astonishing!"

Shani put down the tea cup and exclaimed without concealment:

"That Hogg gives me the feeling that there is a cunning soul of a halfling hidden under the Jackal's holster. What's even better is that it has regarded 'Lord Murphy' as an absolutely trustworthy back-up. As for it not even showing more timidity in my conversation.

I admired that cunning soul, so I chose to cooperate with its request.

I will mobilize the hunters of the Thorn Clan in the Dark Mountains to go to the Barren Mountain defense line to hunt down the gnoll warlock named 'Tearer' and assist Hogg in doing something he cannot do in the future, but I can't do this in vain. thing.

Murphy!

Your jackal servant is very poor and has little money at the moment, so as the master, you have to propose a reward that satisfies me. "

"Xia Ni, Hogg's career is related to whether the Black Disaster can be ended. In this matter, you shouldn't ask me for payment. You should ask Lord Pa Ying."

Murphy said without raising his head:

"I have reported this matter to the Lord. He is now the highest person in charge. Like you, I am only the executor."

"But you promised Hogg that after Hogg gets the Civilization Slate, you can help him complete the certification ceremony for the Civilization Spokesperson!"

Shani is obviously not that easy to fool.

She stood up and said to Murphy:

"This proves that you have at least one clue to the Land of Creation. I even made a wild guess that you and Tris have mastered a secret Land of Creation! I have no other requirements, but when you certify Hogg , I want to go with you!"

"Um?"

Murphy was very surprised when he heard this request. He raised his head and looked at Shani with a serious face and asked:

"You are a vampire, Shani, why are you so interested in the mysteries of the Creator?"

"Oh my god, Tris! What do you two talk about when you're not making love? Why can't you fulfill your duty as an ancient person and educate poor little Murphy about the past that has been plaguing vampires? ?”

Shani said to Tris in an exaggerated tone:

"You haven't told this little cutie about those pre-era visions that the vampire princes will see, right?"

"Shut up! Shani!"

Tris gritted her teeth and said:

“Stop adding more stress to my little Murphy!

He has enough things to consider. That is the burden of the Lord of the Blood, not something other vampires need to consider. Moreover, Lord Paying does not allow us to investigate those illusions in private. I don't want to be regarded by the Lord as something that must be cleared away. Dangerous elements.

If you want to die, you can, but don't get involved with me! "

"nonsense!"

Shani scolded rudely:

"That's not something I am willing to do, Tris! Since I became the Grand Duke of Thorns, almost every midnight dream, I will see those fragmented memories that I can't understand at all.

That's not something I've experienced at all, but it just doesn't want to be forgotten!

I guess every archduke goes through something like this. It took me a hundred years to quietly investigate before I learned from a Songhay priest passing by Nodtorf that what I saw was related to the lost history of the Creator. .

I must go to the land of creation

But now all the known places of creation on the continent are under the control of the Songhai people. The place of creation you explored is likely to be the key to us uncovering those illusions of the past. "

"No, Shani! I've been there, I've studied there, and my condition hasn't gotten better."

Tris dissuaded her in a low voice:

"It won't bring you any good things if you go in there, and Murphy is the curator. He has the final say whether you can go in or not."

"Well, then the problem is simple."

Shani knelt down with a weird smile. She looked into Murphy's eyes and said:

"So, little Murphy, what price does Aunt Shani have to pay to allow your poor aunt to enter your Murphy's Wonderful House to find some answers that can soothe your soul?"

"Please stop driving a wedge between me and Tris. This is my only request."

Murphy sighed and said:

"You can go if you want. If this can strengthen the trust between us, I will be happy to take you in. But I still have to ask, are those strange images you just mentioned really only visible to the Grand Duke of the Blood Clan? "

"Um."

This time it was Tris who answered him. The Scarlet Witch stroked Murphy's hair and said:

“That was a legend, and I didn’t believe it until the first night when I became the Grand Duke of the Blood Vulture.

I saw with my own eyes the fragments of unexplainable images that had no logic or order, like smashed glass, and you had no idea what those images were describing until you put them back together.

In the Land of Creation, I wanted to spend as much time as Shani to verify, but not only did I find nothing, but it also made the memories in my mind more aggressive."

"Hmm, so your reasonless anger in the past few days has nothing to do with our contact that night? It's just because you can't find peace of mind at the spiritual level?"

Murphy blinked and said:

"That's great. I thought I really offended you with my excessive request."

"Ahem, if you two don't mind, I would like to know what you two did in the Land of Creation?"

Shani looked gossipy and asked:

"Has the evil Tris finally taken action against the pure Murphy? How far has it gone?"

"Shani!"

Tris stood up angrily and screamed.

She obviously didn't want to talk about it, so she angrily grabbed the file and glared at Murphy before turning around and sending it out.

Now the witch was really angry because of Murphy's unrestrained speech.

But just after Tris left in shame and anger, the expressions of Shani and Murphy in the room became serious at the same time. Murphy bent down and propped up his chin. He whispered to Shani who was squatting in front of him:

"What else did you find out about 'Source'? Why do you think she must be related to Tris?"

"And you?"

Mrs. Shani showed the gentle smile of a married woman, and asked without giving in:

"You didn't say a word just now, but from the fact that you deliberately spoke so openly that Tris wanted to talk to me in secret, I can be sure that you are hiding something from Tris! You already know that Tris has been trying to Covered up secrets, right?

If you want to get information from me, you have to give me something that interests me first. "

"source"

Murphy hesitated and said:

"Her name is Luna Christine Emmagil. She is a forest elf. She is most likely the first blood descendant of Tris. According to the clues I found, this guy should be dead. He died in Sarokdar. A moment that hurt Tris.

In order to protect Tris, she was killed by Salokdar using Necessary Evil.

To be honest, I don't think Salokdar would make such a mistake. He was not crazy at that time. As a grand duke, he would definitely kill people without leaving any consequences.

Therefore, I am more inclined to think that this 'source' is probably a special undead.

This would also explain her proficiency in necromantic powers. "

"Totally wrong!"

Shani shook her head and said:

"Yuan is a living vampire. Helms Rangers can confirm this, and the last time they fought Yuan was just four years ago. I trust the judgment of those ancient families in this regard.

As for why she is good at necromantic power

Maybe it’s because of ‘Yuan’’s experience in the Songhai Empire? "

The Grand Duke of Thorns smiled and took out a piece of paper with a unique "scent" from his clothes and stuffed it into Murphy's palm. She whispered:

"The traces left by Yuan in the Songhai Empire have been found by the nightwalker I deployed in the place of origin. That guy once sneaked into the Holy City of the Moon with Tris. Perhaps she acted weirdly after being killed by Salokdar. Way to go there.

In short, I confirm that you are willing to risk your life for Tris, so I leave these piecemeal and unsystematic information to you without much value.

If you have a chance to go to the Songhai Empire, maybe you can help us find that bastard.

But I hope you can be patient. The most important thing when fighting against an organization like Dusk is patience. Don’t try to take shortcuts and end it as soon as possible. We must proceed step by step and contact me when you are ready to hunt. Your Aunt Shani is very good. Would love to help with this.

In addition, these news related to your dear Tris are regarded as my ticket money to enter the land of creation. Now you won’t feel any discomfort, right? "

Murphy looked at the stack of papers in his hands.

After a moment, he smiled and said to Shani:

"I finally know why your nickname is 'Winter Fox', Mrs. Shani. You are really cunning and know how to use your wisdom. I can finally regard you as a trustworthy friend with peace of mind.

Also, can you describe the incomplete illusions you mentioned? "

"Why do you need to know this?"

Shani stood up and brushed her hair and said:

"Although I don't agree with Tris' overly doting 'parenting style', I agree with Tris on this matter. Vampires other than the Grand Duke are just asking for trouble if they know this."

"Then what if I told you"

Murphy grasped the hilt of the necessary evil and whispered:

"I've seen similar things, are you surprised?"

"Um?"

Shani suddenly turned around, looked at Murphy, and said:

"Are you serious?"

Murphy explained the strange visions he had seen when he tamed the necessary evil. The more Shani listened, the more "wonderful" the expression on Shani's face became.

After Murphy finished speaking, the Duke of Thorns rubbed his aching head and sat back on the chair.

she says:

"Okay, it does sound consistent with the scattered pictures we saw. Then I will tell you the pictures I saw of the unknown place."

“It’s called ‘Eden’!”

Murphy interrupted Shani and said:

"I guess those scenes we saw were scenes when Eden was destroyed by some kind of event. I'm just curious, why can the Vampire Archduke see these?

I have a hunch without any evidence, I guess, this reason can effectively help us solve the mystery of the birth of the vampire clan, and why we use the "Seven Deadly Sins" to describe ourselves.

Yes!

This answer is very important to all vampires. "
