My players are so fierce

Chapter 31 31. This time things have really changed.

Name: The fourth generation psychic calculation orb trial model·Code name 003
Efficacy: It has all the functions of the third-generation computing orb, with larger memory, faster computing, and more diverse functions.

The latest five-unit ultra-large psionic difference machine matrix it carries inside has a dual-core mode, which can handle multiple thread operations at the same time. Thanks to the fine-tuning of psionic energy by the best gold-burning catalyst, it has " "Remote takeover" unique permissions.

Users who hold the fourth-generation psionic orb can block and terminate the calculation process of the third-generation psionic orb when necessary.

When forming a super-large computing matrix, the fourth-generation computing orb as the superior node can view and copy the information circulating in the matrix regardless of any information encryption, but when activating this function, it will consume more spiritual energy of the user.

Item description:

[Halflings have made three of these things in total, and have no plans to put them into actual production in the short term. Now one of them has traveled thousands of miles and fallen into your hands.

Of course, you can explain that you just completed a standard "black fight" that was not even based on your own decision. However, I don't think those halfling combat mechanics who are scratching their heads and very angry are full of emotions. A steam walker equipped with various explosives is willing to listen to your quibbles
Anyway, I mean, you're in big trouble, kid. 】

This label does not affect its use, but when it comes into contact with the forces and characters related to the item, items carrying the "stolen goods" label will reduce the other party's favorability and trigger a series of Uncontrolled follow-up affairs.)

The current designated functions are simplified and reproduced as: character card interface, occupation and experience value system, biological detection, and item identification.

"What are you doing to it? Why is it emitting red light! Hey, the color of this light is wrong! It should be yellow or green for normal operation!"

Beside the box of confiscated calculation orbs, Miriam saw the fourth generation calculation orb in Murphy's hand.

She didn't know the specific information about this thing, but after seeing Murphy activate it, the red-haired girl was frightened and stepped forward to stop this stupid vampire from playing with the power he didn't understand at all.

But before she got close, she was pushed away by Maxim next to her.

The loyal blood servant stood with his sword in hand and yelled:

"Master Murphy has his own plans. It's not your turn to teach him a lesson in this tone. You rude fellow, don't disturb the master."

"You brainless dog! You have no idea what he's doing."

Miriam immediately retorted:

"It takes at least a month of training for ordinary people to learn to use the Calculation Orb. To people who have never been exposed to it, this thing is just like something from another world. Your master is just a superstitious vampire living in a closed area. !
He had never even seen an automatic hunting crossbow before!
Oh my God, he's going to kill us. The Calculation Orb will explode when it's overloaded! "

"Okay, Miriam, I am not a barbarian addicted to blood-sucking as you think. I will also learn what I don't understand, if it really helps me.

And luckily, I've always been a quick learner. "

Murphy spoke up to stop his two assistants from quarreling over these trivial matters.

He glanced at the computing orb in his hand that was "initializing" by absorbing the spiritual energy from his body. The progress bar on it was advancing slowly. It was estimated that it would take six to eight hours to complete the restoration of the administrator system's functions.

The fourth-generation orb in your hand can be used as the core of the large computing matrix to activate the remaining lower-level orbs. At that time, other orbs will need to be initialized for information synchronization.

In this way, your little players can have their own player interface.

There are 3000 calculation orbs here!
Each player keeps one batch for replacement and emergency use, which can satisfy their own consumption for a long time.

This was a real surprise.

Murphy felt as happy as if he had drunk three kilograms of chocolate.

He showed a heartfelt smile, smiled at Maxim, nodded to Miriam, and finally spread his hands and placed them on their shoulders.

He said in a deep voice:

"We have experienced difficulties together! We have fought our way out of desperate situations together until now. I don't pray that you two will love each other, but the fact is that we are already a small group worth relying on.

So don't quarrel, learn to communicate. Good communication can solve 99% of the problems in life.

Miriam, I understand your nervousness.

But there are no other bystanders to this matter today. As long as you don’t tell anyone, no one will know that these orbs finally fell into our hands.

Even if the halflings do come, they will only cause trouble for the Blood Vulture Clan. "

Murphy stretched out a finger and scratched his mouth, making a silent gesture towards Miriam, and said:

"When we return to Cadman City, you can embark on the road back to Port Chardeau to continue your studies. I will give you enough wealth to make you have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life. This is my promise, and I will definitely do it. arrive!

But you have to forget about tonight!
You know, it's for your own good. "

The red-haired girl lowered her head and glanced at the box with the arithmetic orb at her feet.

She gritted her teeth and felt very conflicted. Once the halflings knew that she had participated in this matter, her unfinished studies would definitely be ruined and she would even be imprisoned, let alone the future she had planned for herself.

So after a few seconds, Miriam raised her head and said:

"I went to check on Mrs. Adele and the eldest lady. I didn't see anything tonight and I don't know anything. Hey, Murphy, your new jewelry is nice.

Hide it well.

Be careful of being stolen. "

After saying that, she wrapped herself in her cloak and turned around to leave.

Maxim stared at Miriam's leaving back. After she completely disappeared, the loyal blood servant whispered to Murphy:
"Master Murphy, if these things that I can't understand are important to your career, then keeping this girl is a hidden danger. She has obviously been brainwashed by the deviant knowledge of the halflings. I know that Transia is indeed It sucked, but all she wanted to do was escape from her hometown.
She can't be trusted.

not as good”

He didn't finish.

But the downward motion in his hand represented his thoughts.

"I also hate people who abandon their hometown, Mark. I think everyone has obligations and responsibilities to their hometown. However, if this hometown is like the ghost of Transia, then it is another matter."

Murphy shook his head and said to Maxim:
"You have been a blood servant since you were a child. You are very aware of the suffering suffered by ordinary people on this land. Miriam is much luckier than others. She has gone out with wisdom and learned knowledge, and she is no longer willing to return to the darkness of superstition and surrender to vampires. It's normal to be alive, don't be hostile to her because of it.

She is very smart.

She knows what is best for herself.

We are a team and we have to trust each other, Mark, at least for now! "

"I admit that Miriam is very smart. She is almost the smartest fellow human being I have ever met, Master Murphy, but I think you are too indulgent towards her."

Maxim nodded, but emphasized:

"If you appreciate her, then give her the honor of becoming a blood servant. A leader like you will surely become a big thing in the future, and her serving you will not insult her humble wisdom.

Although I have never been to a halfling city, I have seen the lives of those ambitious young girls who want to climb up in Cadman City, and I think it should be similar in other places.

I admit that wisdom is a good thing, but people like Miriam who come from a lower class background, have no background and no wealth, cannot use it at all!
Her intelligence is not even as useful in this world as her beauty.If you are not lucky enough, the best destination is to be the mistress of an old and stupid noble, or like her mother, who has clearly seen the bigger world, but can only marry a stupid and short-sighted person after spending her youth. The blood servant village chief.

Even worse.

If you really value her, you should help her escape this sad fate.

Just like you gave my life hope. "

These words surprised Murphy. He looked at his loyal servant and said:
"I didn't expect these words to come out of your mouth, Mark. It seems that I don't know you well enough, but loyalty is always a two-way street, just like you and me.

I don't want a servant who is forced to obey. That would be laying a mine for myself that I don't know when it will explode.

She is different from you. Becoming a vampire is obviously not in her life choices. Even if I really want to recruit, I have to figure out what Miriam really wants first.

Okay, let’s not talk about this topic for now.

You carry these boxes onto our carriage, and you must guard them at all times and don't let anyone else get close!

These things are very, very important to our cause, and I can only hand over this responsibility to you. "

"Snapped"

Maxim beat his chest and said in a deep voice:
"I will guard them with my life, Master Murphy, please trust me with everything!"

"Ah."

Murphy nodded, hung the computing orb that was still absorbing psychic energy around his neck with a rope, and placed it close to his body before walking away. However, after taking a few steps, he turned back to Maxim explain:

"Those cavalry in the pit"

"It's been taken care of, Master."

The loyal blood servant whispered without looking back:
“Those little things shouldn’t take up your precious time.”

"Ah."

Murphy nodded, waved his hand and said:

"Don't let my warriors know about this. They are kind-hearted and will feel sad about this."

After saying that, Murphy left the dead woodland briskly. After experiencing a life-and-death struggle with Joe Pan Markchi and winning, the vampire nature in his body had revived a lot.

death.

These two words can no longer cause any more waves in Murphy's heart, especially these strangers who have little to do with him.

Murphy still doesn't know whether this resurgence of dark instincts is good or bad.

But for sure, it can help you survive better in this cruel world.

Just like a finger will retract when it encounters flames, just like an ant will run away when it encounters danger, these biological instincts accumulated over thousands of years of survival will never harm him.

A few minutes later, Murphy arrived at the outskirts of the woodland.

A bonfire was lit here, and Mrs. Adele and Miss Femis were lying in the tent next to them. Miriam was helping Mrs. Adele change the bandages and medicine.

As a housekeeper serving vampire nobles, Lady Adele will not be short of these first-aid items in her psychic bag.

"Do you also have psychic talents?"

Murphy saw Miriam take out several bottles of potions from Lady Adele's psychic bag. He stood a few steps away from the bonfire and said:
"I've never seen you cast a spell."

"I can't cast spells. My psychic talent is too poor. Being able to open the psychic packet and activate the calculation orb is already the limit. But then again, aren't most people in this world like this?"

Miriam said angrily:

"You have some psychic talent, more or less. When you were a child, you would dream of becoming a psychic master. But when you grow up, someone will tell you that you can't even pass the primary examination of a psychic apprentice, so you learn all you can to no avail. knowledge and are not willing to go back to a small place to marry someone you don't know.

So you can only bite the bullet and obey the adjustment, and finally be transferred to a major that you don't understand what it means.

In short, what I want to say is that some halfling professors who specialize in the phenomenon of 'psionic erosion' have written papers.

They say that we ordinary people, like those metals and objects that have been exposed to the psychic environment for a long time, will also be penetrated and corroded by psychic energy and thus change.

Perhaps in tens of thousands of years, everyone in the world will be able to release psychic energy at will.

But not yet.

The extent to which psychic energy corrodes the human body is too weak. It is not as good as extraordinary creatures like you, who are born with the ability to establish a connection with psychic energy. "

"That's not a good thing. I can hear some strange sounds every time I release my psychic energy, and I can even occasionally see strange pictures in my dreams.

It is said to be a call from a spiritual source, and some say it comes from subspace. "

Murphy shook his head and said:
"Being too immersed in the mysteries of psychic powers can make your mind go crazy. How about this kind of supernatural power that never simply blesses the two of them?"

"The eldest lady is okay, her severed hand has grown back, but Lady Adele's condition is very bad."

Miriam sighed and said:

"The wolfsbane vampire injected some kind of toxin into her body. She has had a high fever for several hours and is almost dehydrated. I have no idea how to treat her.

perhaps"

She looked up at Murphy and said irritably:

"Perhaps you could turn her into a vampire here? A first embrace, as you say? Use the power of another vampire to fight the malice that another vampire used to mutilate her.

She is not a bad person!
Didn't she save you? "

"Mrs. Adele is not my blood servant. I am not qualified to do this. The rules of the blood vulture are not like this."

Murphy shook his head, glanced at the eldest lady in the other tent, and said:
"Looks like it's time to wake her up."

"That young lady must be very tired."

Before Miriam finished speaking, her eyes widened as she saw Murphy casually popping up a ball of dark psychic energy and hitting Miss Femis on the face.

After being attacked, the latter suddenly sat up. Although his eyes were closed, he also made skillful defensive movements.

"you you you you."

Miriam was stunned and exclaimed:

"That's your master! How dare you."

"First of all, I don't have a master! Even if I do, it's not her."

Murphy corrected her statement and looked at the embarrassed young lady who was rubbing her eyes to regain consciousness.

A subtle smile curled up at the corner of his mouth in the darkness, and then he looked at Mrs. Adele, who had saved his life before and was now in pain, coughed, and said in a deep voice:
"Secondly, moving loyalty should also be rewarded. As you said, we need to use the power of one vampire to fight against the other."
