My players are so fierce

Chapter 46 46. A heart-warming story from another world·Rescue in a dangerous city

Murphy found all the vampires around him.

In fact, there were only four of them including him. Fortunately, it was night time, and there were still four to five hours before dawn. Their senses, which were enhanced in the dark night, could easily target the civilians trapped in the ruins of the outer city.

Before the people in the survivor camp were organized, the eldest lady and Mrs. Adele spread their wings and flew in a circle over the ruins of the outer city against the astral psychic energy and the ominous black snow.

They brought back very important information.

Because Cadman City was engulfed by the energy of the astral rift rather than a real earthquake, there were actually not many people trapped under the ruins. The biggest reason why the civilians who were still alive could not escape was the shadow of the astral realm. The despair tokens that constantly appear in the game, as well as the astral beasts that wander in the shadows.

After receiving this information, Murphy quickly adjusted his plan.

"Use fire!"

Tris relied on her in-depth research on psychic energy to come up with a solution. She looked at the shadow inside the collapsed city wall in front of her and said to Murphy:
"The astral shadows in the outer city only escape from the inner city, and their concentration and quantity are far inferior to the core area that is engulfed by astral spiritual energy. These peripheral shadows can be quickly cleared away with flames.

The simplest way is to burn the entire outer city with fire, which will immediately clean it up.

But if you want to save people, you can't be so rough.

Ordinary people holding alchemical torches can also drive back despair derivatives, enough to buy those who are frightened enough time to escape.

The biggest trouble is the astral beasts hiding in the shadows.

All astral creatures can smell the emotions of creatures, and they can tell who is the easiest prey, so you don't have to follow to save people. When they use torches to open the way, you have to deal with the ones hiding in the darkness. Dangerous stuff.

To be honest, there are not many people in the outer city who can survive the first wave of star invasion and survive until now. If everything goes well, most of the unlucky ones should be rescued before dawn.

The remaining ones are too close to the crack filled with filth in the star world, and our current strength is simply not enough to clean it out.

My suggestion is to give up strategically. "

"Why don't your servants get up?"

The eldest lady had no objections to this plan, but she noticed the small shed next to the breach in the city wall and the young players lying dead inside, and said in confusion:

"In this case, shouldn't they be allowed to join?"

"My warriors are tired."

Murphy snorted, waved his hand to cover it up and said:
"The survivors you see are all rescued by them in previous adventures. They are exhausted. Let them rest. I believe that they will continue to shoulder the most difficult tasks tomorrow without fear."

"Swish"

Amidst the huge blood-colored bat wings folded, a beady figure fell from the sky, landing accurately and lightly next to the eldest lady and Murphy.

Mrs. Adele, who has mastered the blood vulture flying technique and seems to be very good at flying, whispered to the two of them:
"People from the survivor camp are coming. There are about 140 people here."

"Get them torches."

Murphy turned to Tris and said:

"Don't follow us, stay here and help us hold off the battle."

"I'm not as helpless as you think, little Murphy."

Tris was a little dissatisfied with this arrangement, but the smart lady knew that she shouldn't complain at this time. She turned around and used the alchemy materials on hand to make a simple torch that could burn for a long time.

As for weapons, there is no shortage of them.

The young players looted a lot of things from the city before going offline, and they also brought back a lot of cold weapons.

Murphy certainly would not have given the guns to these survivors.

He knew what kind of stupid things people would do when they were desperate and frightened. Before his authority was established, it would be better to control firearms.

"Each of us is responsible for one side."

Murphy clicked three times on the map of the outer city and said to the eldest lady and Mrs. Adele:

"Advance in three directions at the same time to hunt down those astral beasts. My servants and warriors will lead the survivors to complete the rescue and serve as supervising the battle team."

The eldest lady and Adele are both black iron-level vampires. They have no objection to this arrangement, but Femis glanced at Murphy. She hesitated and persuaded:
"I don't despise your strength, Murphy, but let Adele stay with you."

"unnecessary!"

Murphy waved his hand and rolled his eyes fiercely in his heart, saying that sometimes the eldest lady's words are really hurtful.

Aren't you just despising my strength?
But my character level has now reached 9, and I am only one step away from triggering the Black Iron Trial. How can I let others come to share my combat experience?
This is not really a dungeon to lead the boss. This is a real bad game that you have to kill with one knife and one shot. The early stage of starting a business is not a good time to start a business.

Seeing that Murphy was so determined, the eldest lady took out a few scrolls from her psychic bag and handed them to him and said:

"Then give yourself psychic enhancement. These scrolls count as my support for you. Bravery is a virtue, but arrogance and recklessness are not."

Murphy did not refuse. He took the scroll and looked it over in his hand. The information label quickly popped up:

Name: Femis' Psychic Strengthening Scroll X5
Efficacy: Unlock the sealed psychic spell, and apply [Elementary Eye of Mystery·Perception +1], [Elementary Midnight Swiftness +1 Dexterity], [Elementary Night Owl Guard·Endurance +1], [Elementary Darkness] to the user [Strength·Strength +1] and [Charged Explosion·Destructive Power Increase] temporary status.

This scroll is a primary scroll made by a formal psionicist, and its effect lasts for three hours.

hint!

Psychic enhancement scrolls will increase the user's mental pressure. Frequent use will cause the user's spiritual vision to increase, making the user more susceptible to evil spirits.

Producer: Femis Cecilia Lesembra

Item description:

[Making scrolls to seal psionic spells is a complex and mysterious alchemical technique. In the teaching system of the Ring Tower, scroll making is often regarded as an important dividing line between psionic masters and psionic apprentices.

However, the spells recorded in the psychic scrolls will be very rough when activated and are intolerable to the minds of ordinary people, so they are not recommended for the weak. 】

"Thanks."

Murphy himself did not use this scroll. After the five little players brought the survivors, he distributed this scroll to his cute little players as a "mission reward" to enhance their gaming experience.

"Murphy, it is very risky for you to allow these people to enter the dangerous city again."

Miriam, who had followed along, was still rubbing her eyes. She jumped off the horse, came over and whispered to Murphy:
"Most of these people were forced to come here. They have no will or courage at all. They are now a group of frightened rabble. If they encounter danger, they can easily cause trouble."

"How many did Maxim just kill?"

Murphy didn't pay attention to Miriam's reminder, but glanced at his loyal servant. He smelled the strong smell of blood from Maxim and asked.

Miriam's face turned a little pale, and she whispered:
"Seven! He killed them on the spot for disobeying Lord Murphy's orders. These people were brought here because the killing scared them, but you can't always use violence to suppress them. Their spirits are already very fragile. .”

"They are going to save their own people now! Go and save your fellow humans! Miriam."

Murphy said in a deep voice to his red-haired assistant:
"If they are unwilling to lend a hand to their own people, is it really up to a vampire like me to save them? You are the camp director, and it is your responsibility to appease them, unless you are willing to admit that you have not learned anything during the three years at Shardo University. Anything." He waved to Mrs. Adele next to him.

The latter understood what Murphy meant, and put her luxurious and useful scarlet revolver in Murphy's hand, along with an ammunition bag.

Murphy put these two things into Miriam's hands and said to her:
"You will lead the team in a moment! Maxim and my five warriors will assist you. I don't want to put pressure on you, Miriam, but if these people cause trouble and hurt themselves or others, the sad end will be theirs. ask for it!

My advice is to treat this like an administrative internship and don't put too much pressure on yourself. "

After saying that, Murphy turned around and jumped onto a big rock.

He coughed.

His eyes swept across the survivors who were forcibly brought here and gathered under the cracks in the city wall. They were all in a state of wretchedness, with pale faces and wandering eyes. It was obvious to the naked eye that they were filled with anger towards the hometown city that almost ate them. fear.

"You probably all know me. Even if you haven't met me, you must have heard of the bizarre legends in Cadman City! Yes, I am the trash vampire Murphy in your mouth.

I don’t want to waste everyone’s time, so listen to me now!

My warriors rescued you and your families from the city. You should be grateful to me and them, but the fact is that you are lucky, because there are many people less fortunate than you who are trapped in this ruins. among.

Their lives are slipping away, and I need you to join me now in bringing them back from their approaching death! "

Murphy shouted to everyone:
“I’ll give you torches!
These psychic torches made by vampires will help you dispel the fear in the shadows. As long as the torches are not extinguished, those invisible monsters will not haunt you.

You only need to enter the city in groups and pick out those who are as unlucky as you. They are your companions, friends or acquaintances. Even if you don't know them, they are also your fellow humans.

It's up to you to help them.

As for those dangerous beasts hiding in the night, it will be my and my compatriots' responsibility to clear them out.

My fellow vampires and I will fulfill the ancient laws of Transia tonight and protect those who pay our blood tax, and we will ensure that no harm comes to you.

We will fulfill our duty to lead and protect you.

But you have to do your job too!

One last time, anyone who acts without permission will be executed!
If you think that obeying vampires is more dangerous than entering the current Cadman City, then you can run away for a while, but my companions and I will not waste time on ignorant fools.

Now that I have finished speaking, is there anyone who still doesn’t understand?
If anyone has any doubts, please come forward and tell me what you think! "

He looked at the slightly agitated crowd in front of him. Maxim, who was holding a sword, was on his left, and the camp director Miriam was on his right. The young players were standing next to him with weapons in hand, and the shadows were Their silhouettes are very long.

After waiting for a few seconds, Murphy waved his hand:
"Since no one has any objections, then get the torch and follow me!"
-
"There are three hiding in the basement of the house ahead!"

Murphy, who was leading a team of searchers and rescuers along the street, moved his ears and accurately captured the sound of crying coming from the ruins next to him.

He waved his left hand forward, and Lumina and Brother Heisi, who were holding torches, immediately ran over, followed by several bold survivors. They held torches in one hand and cold weapons in the other and looked around vigilantly.

"We are here to save you!"

Brother Heisi knocked on the blocked cellar entrance and shouted inside.

Of course the people inside couldn't understand, but it didn't stop them from knowing that someone was coming from outside, so the crying and screaming sounded again, making the surrounding survivors unbearable.

Several other people began to clear away the rubble that was holding down the cellar, but it was difficult to move it away for a while. The mother in the cellar below was crying and howling. Her daughter seemed to be injured and in serious condition.

"There's a broken vent next to it, but it's too narrow for me to get in."

Brother Heisi brought back the news with some embarrassment.

He was a tall person. Lumina leaned over and looked at the narrow vent, then threw the torch in her hand to Brother Heisi. She rolled up her sleeves and was about to climb in, but Brother Heisi grabbed him. .

"Don't go! Let the NPC go!"

He dissuaded:

"No one knows what's going on here. It would have taken you three days to die."

"If we die, we will wait three days. If they die, there will be nothing."

Lumina looked at the timid NPCs around her, curled her lips and whispered:

"I know they are just a line of data, but this is so real that I can't bear it. Anyway, I don't have the guts to save people like this in reality, right? This doesn't stop me from being a hero in the game and helping people. I’ll keep an eye on it!”

After saying that, she tore open the scroll given by Murphy, added a dexterity buff to herself, and then got into the dark and narrow ventilation passage.

Brother Heisi looked at the decisive girl in front of him.

He felt that his cheeks were burning a little, so he stood up and shouted to a few hesitant NPCs beside him, asking them to quickly remove the stones blocking the entrance to the cellar, and he went up to help.

A few minutes later, there was an unusual noise coming from the vents.

Brother Heisi ran over to help him and saw Lumina, who was covered in gray and gray, crawling out with a baby in her arms. She handed the swaddled child to Brother Heisi, then got back without saying a word, and then handed the other child to him. A four or five-year-old girl was also rescued.

But after climbing in for the third time, she waited for several minutes but found nothing. Lumina had tears in her eyes when she climbed out again.

She covered her mouth, turned around frequently with a regretful voice, and said to Brother Heisi:
"Their mother couldn't be saved. She was hit on the head by a brick and she couldn't hold on anymore. She begged me to take care of her children and gave me the last bit of money in the family. I couldn't save her. well."

Brother Heisi didn't know what to say at this moment.

He glanced at the infant child in his arms. The child was sleeping soundly and sipping his fingers with his mouth. He seemed to have no idea what was happening around him. The other rescued girl was hugging Lumi tightly. The legs don’t let go.

She was terrified.

At this moment, the disgraced Heisi brother suddenly felt panicked.

The horse racing in this damn game is so realistic. As for how hard-core it is in these details?
Can't you just happily farm monsters and play games?
"Fuck!"

He cursed and kicked the wood next to him hard.

This action frightened the baby in his arms and started crying, leaving the man in his 20s at a loss. A few seconds later, a middle-aged NPC stepped forward and gestured at Brother Heisi.

He took the crying baby, held it in his arms and rocked it gently, bowed deeply to Lumina who was wiping her eyes, and then turned around and yelled at a few people behind him.

The NPCs who were still chattering just now have changed. They silently lit up torches and began to search more actively. It seemed that the baby rescued by Murphy's warriors had injected some kind of power into them, making them They also began to silently fight against fear in their hearts.

"continue!"

Lumina wiped her face and said to Brother Heise:
"This game is so real, right?"

"It's so real."

Brother Heisi bent down and picked up the shovel, complaining faintly:

"I'm starting to miss my keyboard and mouse, and those crappy games that were poorly modeled, really, I kid you not."
