Chapter 119 118 Why Did You Put Yellow Clothes on Me? You Are Harming Me! 【5860】
Chapter 119 118. Why did you put on yellow clothes for me? You are harming me! [5860]
Maxim has always been very strong in action, especially after receiving relevant instructions from Murphy, this loyal servant will always complete the master's orders as quickly as possible.
This time is no exception.
Although Murphy asked Mrs. Adele to inform Maxim to lead the Cadman self-rescue army into the collapsed Blood Eagle Corridor to dig out the buried secret treasure house the night before, at dusk the next day, a fully armed soldier ran to report the progress of the project to Murphy.
They have already dug out a corner of the secret treasure house.
This surprised Murphy. Is the progress of the project so fast?
In his memory, the collapse of the entire Holy Blood Hall caused the overall collapse of the buildings deep in the corridor. It stands to reason that the location where the secret treasure house was buried in the middle is not so easy to clear out. Murphy expected it to see the light of day within three days.
However, after personally going down to the collapsed Blood Eagle Corridor to check, Murphy discovered the clue.
The damage to the Blood Eagle Corridor was not as bad as he had imagined.
In particular, although the area leading to the middle of the corridor was pressed by the collapsed corridor dome, the underground cave, which was the original area of the Blood Eagle Corridor, was still very stable except for a large hole that led directly to the surface and collapsed due to the spiritual energy of the Holy Blood Pool.
Maxim and his soldiers easily entered the Blood Eagle Corridor again through the cave secret passage that Murphy and the old knight Finok had taken before.
As for the excavation of the secret treasure house, it was even simpler.
In order to protect the wealth and treasures of the Blood Eagle Clan, the vampires used a large amount of iron to create a layer of refined gold shell for the outer layer of the treasure house for four hundred years. It was this extremely solid thing that protected everything in the treasure house during the collapse of the corridor.
It was turned over and pressed in the ruins in a weird posture, but it was intact as a whole.
"Sir! Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission! The secret treasure house has been dug out. In addition, our people have found the arsenal of the patriarch's personal guards and a huge arsenal with many blood servants' equipment under the corridor. It is being cleaned up and it may take a few days to reopen.
But you don't have to worry about the next weapons and supplies."
Maxim, who still had his arm in a bandage, saluted Murphy with his left hand.
Behind him was the found secret treasure house, its psychic blockade door hung diagonally above, and Murphy nodded, reached out to take out the miser's treasure seal and stamped it on the door. With a crisp click, the door of the treasure house opened outward.
"Come in."
Murphy said to his loyal servant.
The two walked in and what caught their eyes was the complete golden splendor.
The gold nuggets made into a cuboid and filled most of the package were scattered all over the ground in the violent vibration, and the Portia gold coins packed in the box were spilled like a waterfall, and various precious treasures and artworks collected by the family were also dotted on it.
It was like the legendary super treasure that had gone through the changes of time and washed away. It was simply a real replica of the dragon's treasure. Even with this money, it was enough to buy the entire land of Transia.
So these vampires are all hamsters, right?
How did they save such a large sum of money in 400 years?
Such a terrifying wealth in front of him made Maxim's breathing pause at this moment, but he soon woke up. These were all treasures belonging to Lord Murphy, and no one else could touch them!
"If the Blood Vulture Clan's accumulation in 400 years was just this money, I would be very disappointed."
Murphy knew that pure wealth was not worth mentioning for his current status, so he didn't have too many different feelings at this time. While stepping on the gold coins piled up like sand in front of him with his boots, he bent down and reached out to take out a few small psychic boxes from the pile of gold coins.
It's not that he has been so pure that he can ignore the temptation of wealth, but now Murphy, as a lord, must consider the problem more deeply.
Ten years of war destroyed Transia's underdeveloped agriculture. Cadman City, which implemented a rationing system at the end of the war, had actually encountered a dual crisis of economy and food.
At present, so much money piled together is indeed attractive, but Murphy's head is heavy when he thinks about the fact that he will never be able to prepare enough food and resources for the next territory.
The worst thing is that it is already October, and the cooler temperature means that autumn has arrived.
And the ruthless winter follows closely!
The most profound memory in Murphy's memory is the scene of being carried back to the courtyard by Tris when he was sleepy and hungry on a snowy night in Cadman City and close to death. This means that it will snow in the winter in Transia and people can freeze to death.
And there are the upcoming prisoners of war and refugees!
Human power is valuable, but if you just bring them back without caring about their lives, it would be too much.
He set himself a goal to have at least 2,000 players in six months. According to the 1% feedback from the territory, it means that the area under his jurisdiction must have at least 200,000 people. The long-term food needs of so many people cannot be met by some gold.
Therefore, these golden things are nothing in Murphy's eyes! In extreme hunger, a piece of gold is not even as good as a piece of bread, and Murphy already knows clearly what will happen if the price of a piece of bread rises to 500,000 marks.
If Murphy can't get food and supplies before the people freeze to death, then his territory will be overthrown by the hungry and cold citizens before the jackals come to demolish their homes, let alone survive the black disaster. .
Just thinking about these things gave him a headache.
Fortunately, he has omnipotent little players. As a lord and NPC, he must learn to trust the players' wisdom in this regard, because if he doesn't believe it, his territory will really be hopeless.
"Snapped"
Murphy opened the small psychic boxes, which contained exquisite scarlet rings with the emblem of the Blood Vulture Clan on them, but there was no specific name in the ring.
These rings are "identification certificates" specially prepared for official members of the Blood Vulture Clan. Each family has similar things. It is said that they are made by the "think tank and recorder" Secret Blood Clan, one of the seven vampire clans. Every three It is issued once every hundred years for the expansion of the family.
Only those who wear the Blood Eagle Seal Ring will be recognized as official family members.
What?
Why didn't Murphy do it before, you ask?
With his previous identity and status, it would be crazy for him to have his own seal ring.
Tris's Elder Seal Ring was recycled more than a hundred years ago. As a blood descendant of Tris, Murphy is theoretically only a marginal member of the family and is not included in the formal membership of the Blood Vulture Clan. .
There are actually not many vampires like him, because the Secret Blood Clan gives a limited number of blood marks to each family every three hundred years. This is obviously a way to control the number of vampires to avoid large-scale conflicts with other races. Method.
But every family has a large number of "shady households" like Murphy in private, and the ancient rules related to the "Code of Escapism" have long existed in name only.
There are nearly 300 rings in the box in front of Murphy.
He took one out and put it in front of his eyes to look at it carefully. The ring made of psychic mithril could be fine-tuned according to the size of the finger, and the exquisite interface was inlaid with blood crystals. Look carefully at the reflection of a winged blood crystal in the crystal. The emblem of the eagle.
It looks full of mystery.
This is the representative of an extraordinary race in the world, and it is also the accumulation of a civilization that has been passed down for thousands of years.
However, the Blood Eagle Clan is gone.
Sarokdar sacrificed more than 10,000 elite tribesmen to the subspace to create an evil monster, and more than 10,000 others were involved in the tearing of reality along with the 150,000 people in the entire Cadman City. to the star realm.
Less than one-tenth of the survivors have retreated into the shadows. They will not take the risk of sticking their heads out until they are sure they are safe and receive a call.
Murphy also had no intention of recruiting those guys who were hiding.
He even hoped that those guys would never jump up to cause trouble for him again. Maybe he should "talk" to the witch hunters about the commission and reward for this matter.
Murphy narrowed his eyes, then curled his lips and threw the ring in his hand to Maxim behind him.
The loyal servant was filled with emotion when he took it in his hand.
In the past, he didn't dare to expect this thing at all, but now looking at the ring in Master Murphy's hand, Maxim suddenly felt unreal. Until this moment, he finally confirmed that his great master Murphy had taken over the power of a family!
And he did it in less than a month!
"Master Murphy, next."
Maxim grabbed the ring in his hand and couldn't help but ask:
"I mean, do you want to be crowned the Grand Duke of the Blood Vulture?"
"Huh? Why do you have such strange thoughts?"
Murphy, who was pulling out several luxurious vampire swords that were absolutely divine weapons from the pile of gold coins, turned back to Maxim in surprise. He was playing with at least Seiko and Commander-level advanced psychic weapons in his hands. Among them, There is also a psychic scepter whose craftsmanship is exaggerated to the level of exquisite workmanship and [the only] dominance.
This is already the highest-end weapon that can appear in the mortal world under the miracle creation. It is an absolute magic weapon that towers over the mainland. Although it is not included in the legend, it is only one step away from it.
Unfortunately, these gadgets have exaggerated demand numerical limits.
Even Murphy can't use it now, let alone his own players. They should be reserved for the absolute core members of the family, or even Sarokdar's spare weapons for himself.
Murphy threw these magical weapons with unique yellow characters in their names into the psychic bag and said casually:
"It's not my turn to take that position yet. Miss Femis is still here. Lord Paying summoned her to ask about the situation, which actually hints at the Lord's consideration for the inheritance of the Blood Vulture family."
"As long as she is dead, there will be no problem!"
Maxim said coldly:
"You don't even need to do it yourself. The hands of the noble cannot be stained with such blood. Adele and I will take care of it all, as long as you nod."
Murphy didn't answer.
Once again he felt Maxim's loyalty.
It's so loyal, but somewhat inappropriate.
"Come and help me collect the weapons and armor here, as well as rare psychic accessories. Keep these for yourselves. You can use them later when you become stronger, or you can give them to the warriors as rewards in the future.
As for their reward this time, they will take some from the weapon arsenal of the clan leader's personal guards that they just discovered. In addition, they will make statistics and report to me later. "
Murphy dropped several pieces of high-end equipment onto the pile of gold coins, and Maxim took out a psychic bag and packed them up.
The master and servant searched for usable things in this luxurious place. After a few minutes of silence, Murphy said:
"Maybe this will disappoint you, but Mark, I don't plan to become the Grand Duke of Blood Eagle."
"Why?"
Picked up a golden lion spear, Maxim, who was "salvaging" various equipment in the "Sea of Gold", said in surprise:
"You deserve all this. When Salokdar was poisoning Transia, it was you who took us back to the territory and saved the survivors! It was also you who made the alliances. Contributed to the fall and redemption of Sarokdar.
You saved this land!
More than once!
This land should thank you and offer loyalty. ”
“But if I become the Grand Duke of Blood Eagle, it means that I have chosen my camp. ”
Murphy sighed and sat on the top of the "hill" of gold coins and gold bars. He was bored and moved the gold coins to listen to the crisp and pleasant sound of their collision, and said:
“Yes, after I become the Grand Duke, I can indeed control the entire family and ask those hidden Blood Eagle members to serve me. Loyalty, but if I get these, I will inevitably lose others.
Mark, you have to learn to look at things from a higher level.
Those survivors.
They have been oppressed and ruled by vampires for 400 years. Although they obey, it does not mean that they have no resentment. They respect me and obey me now not because I am a vampire and their master, but because I can protect them and lead them.
However, the leadership majesty that I have finally established will be wiped out the moment I take office as the Grand Duke of the Blood Eagle Clan.
In their eyes, I will become another spokesperson for the suffering of this land for hundreds of years, and their respect for me will quickly turn into fear and inherit the resentment accumulated before.
I have gained so much resentment, but all I can gain is a group of cunning vampires who are not loyal and have suffered heavy losses.
This is a deal.
If it were you, would you make such a decision? "
Maxim stopped the work in his hands, frowned and thought about the current problem from Murphy's perspective, and soon he found that it seemed.
It seemed that
It was indeed not worth it.
If Lord Murphy took over a flourishing Blood Eagle Clan with more than 30,000 or nearly 40,000 vampires under his command, it would be worth a try, but this family that is already in name only is not worth doing so.
"I don't have an idea yet about what the essence of rule is."
Murphy grabbed a handful of gold coins and put them in his hand, letting them slip through his fingers.
He said to his loyal servant:
"But I can at least be sure of one thing, the ruler cannot be the enemy of the people! Fear may be an effective means of rule, but meaningless hatred does not need to be tainted in one's own hands.
As a patriarch and a grand duke, I can only rule vampires.
But if I am a lord, if I am the governor of the entire Transia, then even the new grand duke of the Blood Eagle Clan can only bow down and obey my orders!
Vampires are just one of all the races living on the land of Transia."
Maxim's eyes widened.
He immediately understood what Master Murphy meant. It was not that Murphy did not want the title of Grand Duke of Blood Eagle, but that Master did not care about the throne of the leader of a small vampire clan.
That would not add glory to him, it would only restrict the spread of his majesty.
"Your ambition is as unfathomable as your wisdom, Master."
The loyal servant bowed his head in admiration and said:
"I am stupid and I think it is too simple. But Master, even if you do not care about this throne, you cannot just throw it to Ms. Femis. I do not have any opinion about her, but her character
At least in my opinion, it is not suitable to be the leader.
As you said, you will rule all life on the entire land of Transia, and vampires are also one of your subjects. In this case, the Blood Eagle Clan should be in your hands.
I think it is better to let Adele inherit."
"Her status is too low, Lord Paying will not agree, and we have to rely on the majesty of that Lord to protect ourselves."
Murphy stroked his chin.
He showed a subtle smile and said to Maxim:
"Have you forgotten someone?
A person who can call Salokdar "elder" and "father" just like Femis, a person who has a close relationship with me and I am sure will never hurt us, a person with outstanding wisdom and connections and some history with Lord Paying.
That is the person who just saved us from the crisis of destruction.
That is the person who was most suitable to be the Grand Duke of Blood Eagle in my heart from the beginning."
"!"
Maxim's eyes widened, and he said in a lost voice:
"You mean, Madam Tris."
"Correct!"
Murphy laughed, patted Maxim on the shoulder, and said:
"I will not become the Grand Duke of Blood Eagle, but my elder will sit firmly on the throne and become the most supportive force in Transia under my rule. She has suffered so much in the past hundred years, and this is what Sarokdar and the entire Blood Eagle clan owe her!
Lord Paying will not refuse such an ancient inheritance.
From all aspects, Tris is more suitable than Femis. "
"What a perfect decision!"
Maxim was also excited, and he said:
"Then we must complete this coronation as soon as possible and complete the replacement of the new Grand Duke before Ms. Femis is brought to Lord Paying."
"Why bother with that? Formalistic things are somewhat out of date in these difficult times."
Murphy shook his head nonchalantly and said:
"There are only two or three kittens like us left in the entire Blood Vulture clan in this old place. I have already said hello to Miriam and Adele.
They are bringing Miss Femis this way. Go and invite Tris over in person. Don't talk about business, just tell her that I found something important in the corridor. In addition, invite Lord Knight Palano and his three attendants to come over.
They want to be spectators and witness today's scene. "
After speaking, Murphy reached out and gently grabbed the pile of gold coins next to him. A lady-style vampire crown fell into his hands. He reached out and patted off the remaining gold coins on the crown, and said to Maxim:
"You must prepare yourself! The day after tomorrow, I will give you my first hug here after the victory celebration. Fierce loyalty must be rewarded with supreme praise. There is no doubt that you deserve this. mark."
