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. This made the players madly complain about how hardcore 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!

You don't 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 of great importance, 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 Tris 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 Knight of the Silver Bow, Ms. Leonia Galanord Cappadocia.

Obviously, Murphy played a little 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 be meaningful if the right person discovered it personally.

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 own 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 corridor for a few days, but there are still important tasks to be entrusted to you."

Murphy then said to the Earl of 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 Battaxin City. I heard Miriam report that the remaining members of the White Mountain Faction of the Thorn Clan will also arrive in Battaxin City in the near future.

.

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

I will designate 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 for 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, and 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 corridor entrance 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 appropriately during this trip."

The eldest lady said softly to Murphy:

"Unfortunately, I didn't find an opportunity to be exploited throughout the whole process. He is very smart, he knows his situation so he doesn't overstep anything, just 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, and Mr. Andre, who is walking on thin ice, only needs to make one mistake to fall into despair. The advantage is on our side!

What's more, given the current situation, these Yankee exiles living under someone else's roof 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 asked:

"So has Old Edward lost his mind and gone crazy? Why would he choose to cooperate with the Jackals at this juncture? And he is secretly supporting a dangerous Jackal warlord? Isn't he afraid that Lord Pa Ying will come in person to cause trouble?"

"According to Tris, this may be an independent attack by a faction within the Wolfsbane clan, just like the foolish actions of Andre's White Mountain faction in Bataxin City."

Murphy replied in a cautious tone:

"I think Tris's guess is 80% correct, and this matter has nothing to do with old Edward.

However, there is still a possibility that Lord Wolfsbane may have known all this from beginning to end, but he was obviously choosing to play dumb. After all, whether the Gray Claw faction succeeded in destroying us alone, or his restless subordinates were eliminated, he would have a problem.

A harvest that satisfied him.

Standard tactics of blocking both ends.

But this is a hot potato for us, and we don’t want to take it now.

But the good news is that my warriors and the Cadman People's Army have come to the end of their cleanup of the gnolls in the Dark Baron, and they have achieved an undisputed victory!

They will then spend a day or two preparing themselves again.

After the witch hunters clear out the gnoll scourge in the Barony of Moreland, I will lead my army into your territory, and we will compete with the ambitious gnoll warlord in the hills of Undermar.

The battle begins and the decisive battle begins!

We cannot fight a war of attrition with them, and in this war, you will be the absolute core."

"Um?"

Femis looked at Murphy in surprise and said:

"I know that is my territory, but Murphy, I don't even have a decent armed blood servant under my command, and I can't even talk about the slightest control over the Under Armor Hills. But you say that I am the core of the battle, and I am a little helpless.

understand."

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

Murphy showed a mysterious smile.

He reached out and pushed open the door of Tris's office. When Femis walked in, he saw the Duke of Blood Vulture, who always liked to fish, actually studying a very complex psychic model attentively.

The beating scarlet light spots were suspended in front of her, forming miniature maps of psychic spells nested one after another. It looked like she was solving a super difficult geometry problem.

Tris would frown as she tried to reorganize and complete the creation of a new psychic spell from these complex spell mappings.

This is a completely unimaginable operation for ordinary psionicists, but for a psionic master like Tris, it is only a slightly "difficult" subject.

how to say?

Anyway, after Tris regained her strength, Murphy never saw Tris use ordinary psychic skills in several battles. All the skills used by the Blood Vulture Archduke were her "original" fighting style.

Although most of them are based on minor modifications to ordinary psychic abilities, the ability to create a unique skill tree for yourself based on your own fighting style is generally called a "super genius"!

Murphy looked at all this with satisfaction. He felt that his "girlfriend" was perfect except for being too "mature" due to her age.

And Femis's eyes widened.

She looked at Tris's mysterious operations in front of her. As a high-level psionicist, she could only find some ideas and tracks from those strange operations. She could barely see that the purpose of this ultra-complex technique was

Break some kind of "isolation".

"I heard that there is a hard condition in the promotion assessment of the psionic masters in the Tower of Rings, that is, the high-level psionic masters must complete the development of a new psionic power as a way for them to dedicate themselves to the mysteries of psionic power and pray for more power and wisdom.

'sacrifice'."

Murphy stood behind Femis.

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