My players are so fierce.

Chapter 412 411. Lumina’s birthday gift
"Ah, I'm home."

In an airport in the real world, Lumina, wearing a windbreaker, dragged several suitcases dusty from the empty passage into the departure hall.

She looked a little haggard, tired from the last few days of traveling back and forth and traveling half a world away.

However, a naturally beautiful girl is still very beautiful even if she doesn’t take care of it very much. That is to say, the epidemic is getting worse and public facilities such as airports have been closed, so there are not many people here. Otherwise, Lumina’s figure and appearance will definitely attract a lot of people. People pay attention to.

Although she always complains that she is a "local girl", in fact, her clothes are very good.

He wears a gray windbreaker lined with a plaid warm shirt, slim-fitting jeans and high boots. He wears sunglasses and a mask. His long shawl hair is constantly flowing as he steps forward, revealing a sassy air.

In the empty airport, they were the only international students who had just returned from abroad, and the embassy staff were coordinating.

They cannot go home directly and have to be quarantined in an arranged hotel for a month. In the past, this kind of treatment would have been criticized, but now everyone knows that the situation is bad and they are naturally waiting for arrangements.

Lumina first called home to let her worried parents and grandparents know that she had returned home safely, and then sent messages to Mrs. Shui, Xiao Ashina, Orchid and Pomegranate to inform them of her itinerary.

Everyone agreed to meet up in Transia in an hour. After settling these matters, Lumina got on the bus and headed to the quarantine hotel.

She looked through the window at the empty streets in front of her. In her memory, the city where she grew up had never been so quiet, as if the whole city was asleep.

It’s the first week of lockdown, and the impact of the pandemic has spread across the world, and at first many people thought it was just a common infection.
The world is changing so fast that even "outstanding young people" like Lumina are at a loss.

But this moment when she returned to her hometown and stepped onto this familiar land, she felt the peace from the bottom of her heart.

She looked out the window at the green grass on the street that looked a little messy because it had not been repaired. There were also a few brightly colored flowers among them, which were out of tune with the surroundings. It was as if everyone had their own thoughts and opened themselves up in different seasons. .

"Finally home."

Lumina leaned on her seat and took a deep breath. She said something to herself and then touched her bag. The hard helmet inside made her feel another level of peace of mind.

"Sister, you always seem to be wearing that helmet these days."

A girl next to her who was about the same age as Lumina asked curiously through her mask:

"Is that some kind of sleep device? I see that your sleep quality is really good after wearing it. What brand is it? Can you recommend it to me? I haven't slept well since I was a child."

"Well, this is not a sleep device. It's hard for me to explain to you."

Lumina said hesitantly:
"You can think of it as some kind of VR gaming glasses. Although it also has the function of treating insomnia, it is not currently on the market. If you need it, you can fill out an application."

As she spoke, she sent the link to the game application.

The round-faced girl was originally quite interested, but after carefully reading the link and seeing the application with as many as 99 questions, her expression became awkward.

Lumina could clearly feel that the other person looked at her like he was looking at a liar or a marginalized person in society who did nothing but play games.

She shrugged helplessly and ignored the other party.

During this time, she had tried to give people around her the "Real World", but not everyone was interested in it.

After all, the technology it represents belongs to a field that humans have not yet set foot on, and any rational person can come to a very simple conclusion. Even if there is such a thing, the controllers will not use it to make a game.

Maybe in the eyes of others, a "stinky game player" like me is an outlier, right?

"My birthday is the day after tomorrow. Oh my, this is the first birthday I have celebrated alone since I was a child."

Lumina was thinking about whether she should cook something good for herself as a reward, but then she thought about her poor cooking skills and had no choice but to give up.

After all, she is already a big child. She can rely on herself to deal with the unsatisfactory life. She is no longer a little brat who cries when she can't get the cake.

An hour later, in a single isolation room, Meimei took a shower and ate the lunch delivered to the door. Lumina, who finally relaxed, lay comfortably on the bed, picked up the baby helmet and buckled it on her head. .

Hey, to hell with real-life unhappiness!
"Real World" starts!

"Swish"

As the light danced, the bard, ranger, and alchemist Ms. Lumina Yanghen climbed up from the tent in the camp outside Transia.

She stretched her body and bounced on the spot. She was about to contact other sisters to start today's busy work, but as soon as she opened the calculation orb, she saw a unique message:

[With your selfless help, Mrs. Tris has completed her first attempt in the field of 'alchemy from another world'. This is the transfer of knowledge and the collision of wisdom. For the birth of that outstanding thing, Tris Madam has decided to give you a gift. Please go to the No. [-] underground psychic chamber of the Blood Vulture Corridor as soon as possible to receive the reward. 】

【Ding!The first link of the hidden mission 'Learning from Another World' has been completed!Get X1 from the Alchemist's treasure chest key. Please go to Mrs. Tracey to get it. 】

【Ding!The hidden mission 'Learning from Another World II' is open!Please continue to look for more valuable gifts of otherworldly knowledge to Mrs. Tris to help Mrs. Tris progress in the field of otherworldly alchemy and obtain more rewards. 】

【Ding! The first ring of 'Caventina's Warrior' has been completed and you have obtained the special title 'Caventina's Warrior'.

The effect of this title is: Those who wear this title will be allowed to enter Madam Tris's alchemy laboratory and read and study Madam Tris's Alchemy Notes: Black Iron Chapter, and automatically obtain the title of 'Honorary Knight' of the Blood Vulture Clan. In the Blood Vulture Clan, The clan enjoys the same treatment as a family knight.

The mission 'Caventina's Warriors II' has started!
Please continue to improve your impression and status in Mrs. Tracey's heart, and new tasks will be issued when the time is right. 】

Lumina was a little overwhelmed by the series of prompts, but it was always a good thing to have rewards, and obtaining the special title of "Caventina's Warrior" also made her very satisfied.

After putting on this title, which she was the only one to hold in the game, she walked out of the tent, jumped on her demon-hunting steed, and rushed towards the Blood Vulture Corridor.

She was really looking forward to what kind of reward Mrs. Tracey would give her.

At the same time, in the fourth underground psychic chamber of the Blood Vulture Corridor, Murphy was looking at the unique drop of blood swimming in the exquisite blood-drawing device in his hand.

This does not originate from within the Blood Vulture Clan, but from the only "Moon Elf" Ms. Lenia on the land of Transia.

In order to get this drop of blood, Murphy had to plead with his loyal servant Maxim. I don’t know what the hell method Mark used to successfully convince Leonia to give him this drop of blood.

This is quite an achievement for a vampire.

After all, vampires have many ways to use blood as a guide to impose various curses and negative states on the owner of the blood. Even if they don't do bad things, just a real-time monitoring based on the release of blood will make people feel very uncomfortable. .

"Are you planning to use this drop of blood to analyze the psychic properties of the moon elves, and then weave new forms for your warriors?"

Tris, who had already made preparations for modifying the shape of the psychic projection, poured herself a glass of wine and poured a glass for Murphy. She asked:
“This is not an easy job.

Even for those psionicists who specialize in the study of life forms, it will take years of research to fully analyze the unique psychic characteristics of a certain race.

Let me tell you, all Lumina needs is the appearance of a moon elf. She is a pragmatist, and as long as she has this appearance, she is satisfied. "

"But I'm not satisfied. Just a change in appearance is not a 'race change' in the true sense."

Murphy shook his head and said:
"My little player wants to become an elf, so I have to help her realize her wish. Even if it is based on the contribution she has made to Transia in the past period of time, I must satisfy her desire.

This is not difficult for me. "

As he spoke, Murphy unplugged the blood drawer and dripped the drop of Lenia's blood onto his tongue under Tris' curious gaze.

This drop of blood, which is not essence, is not enough for Murphy to cast various curses, not to mention that he does not know those. But when the blood is absorbed, Murphy feels a unique cold aroma, and as he expected, the prompts come quickly. Appeared in front of him: [Coming into contact with the blood of the elf race, the moon elf royal family, the collection of racial templates increases! 】

There is also a progress bar that appears along with the prompt, and the numbers on it are constantly beating, which means that while Murphy is using the vampire's ability to analyze the blood of the moon elves, he is also gaining a deeper understanding of the template information of the elves as a race.

Unfortunately, just a drop of blood was not enough for Murphy to fully understand the racial mysteries of the Moon Elf. When he opened his eyes, the collection of racial templates in front of him could only reach 20%.

"Leenia's blood belongs to the Moon Elf royal family, which is one of the bloodlines closest to the origin of elves. Unfortunately, after she accepted the first embrace of the Blood Alliance clan, the arrogant power from the Blood Alliance covered and modified the blood. A lot of hidden information.”

Murphy sighed and said:
"I couldn't tell much more.

It would be great if we had a real Moon Elf on hand, I guess, if I could give the Moon Elf the first embrace, I would have a complete grasp of the Moon Elf racial template.

But it's okay now.
I already knew some of the mysteries of the Moon Elves, and with the addition of Adele, I also got involved in the mysteries of the Shadow Elves.

Sadly the forest elves and sea elves are still a mystery to me.

I'll help you, Tris.

To be precise, you assisted me.

I come to control the process of racial transformation, and you help me reshape Lumina's psychic appearance. If she chooses Moon Elf, the success rate is only one-fifth.

If she chooses Shadow Elf, the success rate is one in three. "

"Thankfully your warriors are not afraid of death. Otherwise, with this poor success rate, anyone who dares to try this kind of experiment will undoubtedly commit suicide."

Trish complained:
"Even an 80% success rate seems low enough to me."

"But the current strength of the development team is only so much. Young players should also understand the difficulties faced by programmers. How can such complex functions be built overnight?"

Murphy rolled his eyes, destroyed the blood-drawing device in his hand, and then looked back at the entrance of the No. [-] psychic chamber. A few seconds later, Lumina knocked on the door and poked her head out to look at it quietly.

It seemed that he was afraid that he would come at the wrong time and break some unseemly things between Mr. Murphy and Mrs. Tracey.

"My warrior, come quickly. Grand Duke Tris has just completed a shocking research."

Murphy greeted Lumina with a gentle tone, allowing Lumina to boldly enter the laboratory. Before she could ask, Tris threw a test manual to her and motioned for her to take a look.

Lumina opened the manual and did not trigger the mission, but she quickly noticed the complex phrases translated by the calculation orb. After seeing the keywords "elf", "race conversion", and "appearance and talent change" Immediately afterwards, Lumina's eyes widened.

She was filled with ecstasy.

"Racial conversion is finally going to be developed!"

The bard elf shouted in his heart:
"Ah ah ah, I finally got the reward after all the hard work! It was indeed the right choice not to turn into a vampire despite the pressure! I knew that the development team would never leave such a lot of game resources unused.

Ah, development team, you are my god! "

"Don't be so excited, my warrior."

Murphy didn't even need to read Lumina's mind. Just by looking at her excited expression, he knew that this girl had taken the bait. He reassured:

"This experiment on changing the form of psychic projection is just the beginning. Tris and I are still very clumsy in our attempts in this regard. I must remind you that this experiment is risky.

You can now choose the appearance of Moon Elf or Shadow Elf, but the success rate of both is not high. To be honest, you should probably be more cautious before making a decision. "

"I choose the Moon Elf!"

Lumina immediately raised her hands and shouted:
"No need to be cautious anymore, the worst result is death, but I will return to Transia in three days!

Mr. Murphy, you know how much I like everything I pursue. Although I was not born in Transia in the form of an elf, I still hope that I can complete my legendary adventure on this continent as an elf.

I am willing to take these risks, and I am also willing to be a guinea pig to help Mrs. Tracey complete this psychic experiment!
Do I need to sign a liability release agreement? "

Seeing her being so excited, Murphy and Tris looked at each other. The vampire lord shrugged, pointed to the stone platform next to it decorated with complex psychic spells, and said:
"Lie down and don't panic no matter what happens. In the worst case scenario, Tris will restore you to your original state."

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaae, I know, it’s about formatting.”

Lumina jumped up quickly and rolled her eyes around where she was lying. She saw Mrs. Tris preparing some alchemical solution, and also saw Master Murphy raising his fingers to touch her neck.

"Don't worry, this is not the first embrace. I will not transform you into a vampire against your will, my warrior."

Murphy whispered:
"I guess that after you wake up, you will restart your second life in Transia with the attitude you desire."

Cold fingers touched Lumina's neck.

As the sharp nails penetrated her skin, it felt like needles piercing flesh and blood. Lumina's consciousness quickly became drowsy but she could still maintain the last bit of consciousness.

In that confused perception, she heard Master Murphy speaking to her gently:

"I just saw a look of exhaustion in your eyes. I guess you just encountered something disturbing in your world. I don't know how to comfort you. I hope you like this gift.

Hope it cheers you up.

Happy birthday to you too, my friend Lumina. "

Wow!
When she heard Lord Murphy's gentle voice, the confused Lumina immediately felt a little bit broken.

This is the first birthday blessing she has received in the past few days that have made people exhausted. It is like the moment when she was forgotten by the whole world, blessings from friends in the distance were sent back.

If she hadn't been close to coma under the influence of psychic energy, she would have hugged the handsome Mr. Murphy and cried a lot.

She is not stupid.

She knew that there must be other factors behind her ability to return home smoothly at this time, almost stuck. After all, even Mrs. Shui's private plane could not take off at this time, but she was picked up like a dream, even that one The other international students on the plane should be grateful to her for this.

She knew this, she just tried not to think about it.

But at this moment, Lumi felt an impulse.

No matter what kind of secrets behind Mr. Murphy and Transia, she didn't want to pay attention to it anymore, and Lumina seemed to finally be able to understand Xiao Ashina's unique feelings for Mr. Murphy and Transia.

The person in front of me is not an NPC.

Nor is his territory an illusion spun out of cold data.

He is his friend.

I like this place
That's it.
