My players are so fierce.

Chapter 528 527. Lao Qin’s friends from another world-[910 additional monthly tickets]

Lao Qin did not make friends with the Corpse Witch.

He was also very confused when he was summoned by the Corpse Witch Baldwin. Could it be that this guy was beaten by him so he felt unhappy and planned to have a 1V1 solo in private to regain his face?
  Facts have proved that death has taken away the passion that belonged to the commander and warrior in the corpse witch's heart. It came to Lao Qin simply because it wanted to know the situation of these "devils from another world".

Although Lao Qin repeatedly explained to him that they were not really destroyers from another world, but perhaps because of what he had "seen with his own eyes." Corpse Witch was noncommittal about this explanation. It kept asking Lao Qin about "another world." thing.

The veterans who knew the inside story were still worried about whether their casual remarks would anger those "observers", but it turned out that the observers did not seem to care about this kind of exchange between colleagues from the two worlds.

During the conversation with the corpse witch, Lao Qin revealed some basic information, but there was no penalty in the player interface. This gave Lao Qin, an "intelligence worker" who did not conform to common sense, a little unique meaning.

On the Vulture flying to the Crimean Fortress, Lao Qin began to talk to the Corpse Witch more boldly about the differences between the two worlds. At the same time, he asked the Corpse Witch to ask if there was anyone in this world who could freely travel between the two worlds. power or influence.

To this, the corpse witch answered in the affirmative.

"Although I was resurrected hundreds of years after my death and am completely out of touch with this era, I can tell you with certainty, Lao Qin, that the kind of force you described that can move freely in the two worlds does not exist.

You are not a psionicist, and your understanding of dimensions and planes is not even as good as the ordinary people here. You cannot understand how complicated the preparations required to achieve the situation you describe are.

I can tell you with certainty that such power does not exist in this world. If a certain force really has similar means, then they can completely rule the world.

But look at this chaotic world. Does it look like it can give birth to great power that travels across all realms? "

Facing the corpse witch's answer, Old Qin nodded and did not ask any more questions.

He was thinking about those things and then thought about the report Menghaha submitted before. The physicist made a guess without evidence.

She believed that both their side and Transia's side were actually "experimental subjects" forcibly connected by third parties who called themselves "observers" and used some incomprehensible means or technology.

Similar to the situation of foreigners like them, the locals of Transia will not have any more understanding of "observers". In this alien world where order is lacking, people here have no hope of living with dignity. , not to mention having more energy to explore the unknown.

Now Corpse Witch Baldwin has given the same conclusion.

This forced Lao Qin to seriously think about the meaning conveyed by Meng Haha's report.

If you can't start with the locals, then if you want to explore the truth of this mysterious "third kind of contact", you can only slowly advance according to the plot set by the observers for them, foreign players.

They must be accomplishing this with some purpose. It's not like those "observers" with great powers are so idle that they want to see the contact process between the two worlds, right?

A two-planet social experiment?

This guess is a bit too scary.

When Baldwin saw Lao Qin's frown and thoughtful expression, he knew that his new friend had a secret in his heart, but he did not ask any more questions, but looked up at the Crimean Fortress in front of him.

In the evening darkness, the fortress located in the mountain col was like a silent giant, tightly guarding the mountain road leading to the Kafhoka Plain.

This was once the territory of the Confederation of Portia, but now it has become the border of the Kingdom of Nordtov.

In Baldwin's time, this fortress had not yet appeared, but he could understand the significance of this fortress. When he thought that it was being guarded by the Winter Wolf Legion and his own heirs, the Corpse Witch felt a "peace of mind" in his heart.

In his opinion, the Winter Wolf Legion guarding this place is trustworthy.

As long as the soldiers of the Winter Wolf Legion still abide by the series of regulations it set for the legion back then, their combat effectiveness will never be low.

"We're almost there."

A few minutes later, Lao Qin withdrew from his thoughts. He glanced at the flying platform at the top of the fortress in front and said to Baldwin:
  "Your great-grandson is waiting for you over there. Tsk tsk, Lao Luo, you are indeed a big shot. You have such a pretentious appearance even after you came back from the dead."

"If you're mocking me, congratulations, you did it."

The corpse witch said hoarsely:
  "Don't talk about it again, it was not a lucky resurrection."

It pulled the reins of the horse in its hand, and let its car descend under the watchful eyes of the Yankee soldiers below.

As a corpse witch, it was disgusted and resisted by life. Natural spirits like the Wind Eagle were not even willing to carry him, but the undead creature had its own means. It was riding a black skeleton war horse at this time. This thing was used by Bella with the corpse. Tectonic transformation.

It has two jet-black bat wings and is imbued with psychic spells, allowing it to soar in the sky like the legendary Pegasus.

As a produced "sample", Bella also added additional embellishments to this unique necronomicon creation, making the light armor it wore look full of the flavor of the night, attracting the attention of "escorting" little players around it along the way. They glanced sideways frequently.

"I heard that the reward mount for the first phase of the Hall of Fame, the 'Skeleton Night Patroller', is this kind of thing."

Goudan, who was sitting on the vulture, whispered to several other student parties:
  "Cheche and the others will wait a few days to get it. Holy shit, this thing is so cool! The best thing is that it is a limited edition and there is currently no other way to get it."

"These skeleton Pegasus were all made by Teacher Bella."

The pants-removing demon explained beside him:
  "I've even done some work on it. This thing is an advanced undead structure. Theoretically, after you two coffin bearers reach a higher professional level, you can make this kind of mount by yourself as long as you get the blueprint.

However, the materials it requires are very complicated. If Scarlet Castle does not provide them, you will have to collect them yourself. "

"Do you know the materials needed?"

The water demon Bazaar's eyes widened, and he said to the pants-removing demon:
  "Didn't you work for Mr. Bella? You must know the materials, right? Come on, good brother, share with the brothers what materials are needed. We will start saving now. When we get the drawings, we won't need them. waited."

"Well, there's actually nothing I can't say."

Afeng has always been kind to others. After recalling it for a moment, he said:
  "First of all, the skeleton of a complete skeletal war horse. It is best if there is a resurrected consciousness in it. If not, you have to find a way to get the soul of a horse that has not dissipated.

Secondly, you need to use big bat wings that have been tempered with secret methods. Such thin and tough bat wings are hard to find, but I heard that there are such bats in the Feather Valley of the Ancestral Forest, but they are difficult to catch and a bit dangerous.

These two things are the most important, and then you need to practice the 'Undead Structure' until you are at least proficient in it. Teacher Bella has production diagrams. As long as you pass the craftsmanship, you can make it step by step.

The final step is the awakening of the undead.

The horse must be able to control its new form without harming its soul.

But I can help with this step.
  My main profession, 'Ghost Walker', has the ability to soothe souls. When you are ready, just call me.

But the production map is not so easy to change. I guess you have to at least raise Tutor Bella's personal reputation to Admiration, but this is not difficult. Tutor Bella's reputation is bound to Mrs. Bernice. And Mrs. Bernice liked elf-style knick-knacks.

Their reputation is related to Mrs. Adele, and they regard Mrs. Adele as their daughter.

In addition, I heard from the instructor that it has a biological daughter in the Shadow Valley of the Dark Mountains, so I think if we can complete this quest chain, we may be able to increase our reputation. "

"Damn! You're so awesome, man. You're like a master of strategy. You know these things very well."

Goudan praised:
  "Thank you for meeting you. Otherwise, if we encounter this kind of thing, we would just pounce on him and lick him hard, which would be ineffective at all."

"I heard that the Shadow Intelligence Bureau under Madam Adele is recruiting people."

Water Demon Bazaar looked through her player panel records, then turned to the others and said:

"Yes, that's right, I have received an invitation from them before. It is said that the Shadow Intelligence Bureau is going to form a special operations team to follow Mrs. Adele through the swamp. I guess their destination is probably the Shadow Valley!
  You see, Master Bella and Lady Bernice and Lady Adele are all from there, so this must be an important subplot!
  If we complete this task chain and can raise the reputation of all three of them at once, we may be able to trigger some other tasks. I think this Shadow Valley may be our base of advancement in the next stage.

It's similar to Wolfsburg's position in the Filthy Swamp.

So, brothers, after completing this escort mission, everyone should try their luck at the Shadow Intelligence Bureau. Anyway, the main line of the swamp has been completed now, and you can only do your daily work here. "

"Okay, we're fine."

Three pounds of sweet potato roasted on behalf of the five people in their dormitory agreed.

Afeng hesitated for a moment. The disciples he taught have now started internships in the field hospital near the smuggler's forest. The peak period of sending the wounded in the war has passed. Now it is to help the injured recover and provide follow-up treatment. .

At present, the field hospital is still operating according to the local treatment style, with or without him.

After all, modern medicine is based on complete basic science. In the absence of medical treatment, medicine, and even basic supplies, what he, a doctor of medicine, can do to promote it is very limited. It’s not a bad thing to take this opportunity to go out for a walk. I think my mother won’t stop me.

Therefore, Afeng, who was regarded by others as a "mysterious master" like the "sweeping monk", agreed to join in after being invited by everyone.

Just as they were discussing their next plan of action, the Corpse Witch Baldwin, who had been escorted over by them, had jumped off his skeletal Pegasus. Under the gaze of a group of well-equipped Winter Wolf warriors, the first-generation Winter Wolf general asked After taking a few steps forward, he saw the current General Winter Wolf frowning in front of him.

It knew that the man in front of it was its great-grandson. Judging from the latter's face, body shape and demeanor, this middle-aged man named "Bashir Sue Baldwin" should indeed be its bloodline.

But whether it was the old corpse witch or General Winter Wolf, they looked at each other as if they were looking at a stranger with ulterior motives.

The emotions taken away by death cannot be awakened by simple blood connections, and the tolerance left to the dead in this world of the living is always limited. What's more, the body that Old Baldwin is using now is not its original remains.

With their faces so different from each other, the only remaining connection between these two people and strangers was their last name.

Between them lies nearly 400 years of vicissitudes of life.

No one spoke at this time, everyone was looking at these two people. After a depressing silence, the old corpse witch took the initiative and said:

“Will the gardenias in Dmitry County still bloom every year?”

It sounded like a simple question, but General Winter Wolf's eyes tightened instantly.

This is a code word.

A code word that only the head of the Baldwin family knows.

It represents the location of the most important secret vault of the Baldwin family, where the remains of ancestors and inherited items are stored. Unless someone else sneaks into the position of the head of the family, this code word alone is enough to prove the identity of the undead opposite.

"The 'Wolf Blood' has been lost."

General Winter Wolf whispered:
  "You lost it!
  It was lost forever in time with your disappearance in the swamp. The sword-hiding platform is empty, which represents the regret and shame of the family. My grandfather and my father both fell on the road to find it.

They died fighting the gnolls just like you. "

"Perhaps it was captured by the gnolls and brought back to the Dark Mountains. Well, I admit, that was the shame I brought to the family, and it brought shame to the Baldwin name."

Old Baldwin said hoarsely:
  "I will do my best to retrieve it and put it into your hands. Baldwin, who cannot hold the wolf's blood, will not receive the blessing of the God of the North Wind. After all, it is a treasure given to us by Su."

"Then go get it back."

General Winter Wolf said concisely and concisely:

"When you bring it back, I will recognize your identity."

"I don't need your admission, Bashir."

Old Baldwin shook his head and said:
  “I’m not here to return to my family.

I'm dead and all I want now is rest. I am here today on behalf of the Governor of Transia to convey to you a personal concern of his. If you are not going to invite me into your office, then let's talk about it here.

The Vampire Governor does not want to be stabbed in the back by the Kingdom of Nordtof before the Black Disaster ends, and he hopes to get your written guarantee. "

"If Her Majesty the Wolf Lady doesn't give me orders, no warriors from the Winter Wolf Legion will set foot on the land of the Transians."

General Winter Wolf said without hesitation:

"I will not choose to embark on the path of betrayal. Are you and your new master satisfied with this answer?"

"It was never the Wolf Girl's orders that he worried about."

The corpse witch glanced at his great-grandson and said:
  "As a member of that group, you should know where Murphy's concerns come from. If you choose to be loyal, then continue to be loyal and don't be tempted by other people's words, let alone make wrong judgments.

The current Nordtov is much stronger than I remembered, but it still cannot get rid of the hidden dangers of the past and even made those hidden dangers become cancer.

In my time, it was a desperation to rule a country with the brutality of soldiers.

But I didn't expect that almost 400 years later, similar ideas are still prevalent in Nordtov today. This may be the curse of recklessness buried in our blood.

Bashir, soldiers will be soldiers, don't try to pursue power that we cannot control.

This is my final reminder to you. "

After saying that, the old corpse witch said goodbye to his great-grandson with the etiquette of an ancient Nord. He turned around and boarded his skeletal Pegasus without hesitation. The moment it took off again, it looked at General Winter Wolf and whispered. explain:
  "Send gardenias to Julia's tombstone for me. That was her favorite gift."

After saying that, the Corpse Witch took off on his Pegasus and left.

Lao Qin glanced at General Winter Wolf, who had a gloomy expression. Without saying anything, he led the student party away from here.

This was not the same as the "diplomatic scene" that Lao Qin imagined. He could feel that the old corpse witch seemed to be conveying some information to his descendants, but he could not understand the local people's code words.

Forget it.

Let these be a headache for Governor Murphy.

On the flying platform of the Crimean Fortress, Winter Wolf General Baldwin watched the Transians disappear into the evening sky. His adjutant, Colonel Duke, stepped forward and whispered:

"General, is that undead really your ancestor?"

"Yes, the information it knows cannot be false, but my ancestor is dead, so this is just its sad remnant in this era, and it is not worthy of too much attention."

General Baldwin whispered:

"What I'm more curious about is, where did Governor Murphy know that domestic military leaders were secretly colluding together? How was he sure that those guys sent people here to persuade us to do 'big things' with them?"
  It seems that the relationship between the Thorn Clan and the Blood Vulture Clan is closer than we thought, and Lady Shani has made some exchanges of information that are detrimental to the country's interests.

Alas, the wolf girl trusted her ancestor too much.

This is a hidden danger. "

The adjutant colonel did not respond.

He knew that he was not qualified to discuss His Majesty's affairs in front of the general. After all, he was not a "relative of the emperor" like General Baldwin. After the general finished speaking, the colonel asked:

"Then, facing the 'warm invitation' from several veteran generals, our choice is..."

"Refuse! Even without today's reminder from my ancestors, I would never have participated."

General Winter Wolf said categorically:

"Not to mention how stupid it is to stab an ally in the back during the Black Disaster. To continue to do this when the Transians are already aware of it is a risk in itself. My ancestors are right, those old The general was trying to do something the soldiers weren't good at and weren't supposed to do, but I knew they weren't that bold.

There must be bigger supporters behind them.

Alas, why could Marshal Heraclius not understand that his time was over.

Her Majesty the Wolf Lady clearly gave him the opportunity to step down with dignity, but he is like a shadow of the past who is unwilling to accept his old age. He is still staggering to return to the days of glory, but he doesn't care about what the country needs most now.

Unable to retreat bravely, and unable to let go of the power in his hands, he allowed his anxiety to defeat him from the inside out and turn him into a puppet that could be manipulated by rumors.

It's not that he doesn't understand, he just doesn't care.

After all, if you don’t think about it, the future will naturally be much simpler.

My old boss, alas, what a disgrace to my generation of soldiers! "
