Chapter 102 101. When you stand in front of the gate of hell.【4160】
The Old Knight clearly falls into the traditional "Riddler" category.
He always hates half-talking. Maybe he feels that Murphy cannot deal with the threats he has not said. Maybe he feels that he trusts the "Scarlet Witch" he has faced more than Murphy, who has a promising future.
of power.
Murphy wanted to know more, but he also knew very well that if Old Finock didn't want to say anything, he couldn't pry the other person's mouth open. The balance of power seemed so helpless in this situation.
Using the same method as before, the old knight quickly opened the thick wall of the Blood Vulture Corridor above the secret passage waterfall, and opened a door from the secret passage leading to the depths of the corridor.
The two of them jumped out and fell into the magnificent corridor. Murphy opened the map in his hand and observed the surrounding configuration, and said to the alert old knight:
"Perfect raid! This is the servant dormitory, only the last corridor away from the Blood Vulture Temple where the Holy Blood Pool is located. From here we can open the currently blocked central area to allow your subordinates to get here faster.
.
Or we can scout forward and confirm Sarokdar's location."
"People on both sides of us are resting in the second hall at this time, and it will take time to regain combat effectiveness."
The old knight calculated the time in his mind and said to Murphy:
"It takes at least eight hours of rest to restore them to their full strength! They also need to replenish the various combat items they carry. Witch hunters are just tough and tenacious, not tireless. Your alien summons will also take some time to recover.
To reconnect with the physical world, right?”
"Well, they'll take a little longer."
Murphy took out his pocket watch and calculated the time difference between the two sides, and concluded:
"Almost ten hours later."
"Then the two of us have to find a way to clear a path for them. I hope you have eaten enough just now, because the next consumption may be a bit heavy, especially for you now."
The old knight squinted his eyes and looked at the corridor leading to the Blood Vulture Temple in front of him, feeling strong uneasiness in his heart.
Everything is so quiet in front of me!
He believed that even if Sarokdar really went crazy like other vampires whose minds were invaded by astral spiritual energy, he would not be completely unresponsive to the current situation.
The army of witch hunters and players has cleared a third of the corridor. No matter how crazy he is, he should have responded. However, the Archduke of the Blood Vulture is still as stable as a rock and has not even shown up. Either the madman intends to capture him without mercy, or he is
He is planning some evil things that can instantly destroy the invaders.
"I'll help you!"
Old Finnock grabbed the one-handed hammer and kite shield, and said to Murphy:
"There aren't many vampire guards ahead. Clean them up and meet in front of the church. If you can't defeat them, go back. I'll take over the right side after I clear the left side."
"Who are you looking down on? You, an old man with family problems."
Murphy curled his lips, held the sword in his right hand, shook hands, and stepped out first while holding the hunting crossbow.
It's not like he stood up just to save face.
The main reason is that the vampires in this corridor are all driven crazy by the astral spiritual energy and are in a strange source of weakness. From the state of Jed who escaped before, it can be seen that something terrible has happened here.
Therefore, for Murphy now, these high-level vampires are no longer insurmountable enemies, and he just needs to light up the [Certificate of Warrior] in the achievement system.
"Hey, use this! Be careful not to get it on your fingers. I didn't bring an antidote."
The old knight stopped Murphy, waved and threw him two bottles of green sword oil.
Murphy took it in his hand and glanced at it, and the information label popped up:
Name: Lord of White Oak's Arms and Supplies·Vampire Killer

Item description:
[Witch hunters will use all possible means when fighting evil spirits, and the outstanding research in the field of alchemy from the Church of Avalon can often make them even more powerful. 】
"Thanks."
Murphy was not polite, unscrewed the bottle cap, dipped his handkerchief in the thick green ointment, and applied it to the Blade of Desire Clan, making the elder sword used by Tris quickly turn green.
He also soaked the arrows used in the hunting crossbow in it very thiefly. After being fully prepared, he stepped into the deep corridor on the right. At the same time, the screams of the vampires were heard from the left.
Although this old man is a Riddler, he is really super strong! Killing these weak vampires in front of you is no more difficult than killing a chicken.
Murphy took a deep breath and stepped into the corridor.
There were two emaciated black figures rushing towards him. They opened their blood in the darkness to reveal the true nature of the ugly and twisted vampires. However, their miserable appearance of skin and bones and their skeleton-like faces represented the inner strength of these guys.
Almost all the blood was drawn clean.
Just like how they feast on "food", it's like there is a monster that feeds on the blood of vampires deep in the corridor.
"boom"
Murphy's huge and strong blood wings spread out and closed in front of him like a shield, allowing the four incoming blood claws to flap on the wings to block the attack. Then the wings flapped outward to push the attacker away, and then "
During the arrest with "Death Grip", one of them grabbed his leg and pulled him back.
"puff"
The dark steps slid forward, and the green blade pierced the hearts of his fellow humans.
The Death Blade shows no mercy, as if the person in front of him is not a compatriot but an enemy.
As Murphy pulled out the blade, the crazy vampire who fell to the ground screamed as if he had been thrown into a fire. Balls of blue-green purifying flames jumped out of his wounds, causing him to twitch and curl up in pain, and then was crushed by the indifferent Mo Mo.
Fei held the sword and pressed down.
The sharp blade pierced the eye socket, easily ending this miserable midnight life, and also gave Murphy a wizened vampire heart.
This is a garbage thing that has been contaminated by filthy spiritual energy and has its essence extracted. No vampire with style will suck this thing up. But on the other hand, this thing is neither good nor bad. Give Murphy's Astral Wolf
It's just right for dog food.
"Ouch!"
The giant astral wolf jumped out of the scattered starlight next to it, bit into the vampire heart, chewed it a few times, and then swallowed it. It was clear from the sharp teeth that it liked the taste of blood food.
However, after single-handedly challenging this family elite, no achievement popped up.
Murphy frowned, but he soon felt relieved. The "family elite" who was so weak that he could be killed by his combo of moves could hardly be called a real elite.
If you want to light up the "Certificate of Warriors" achievement, you probably have to pick at least three opponents like Jade and kill them to complete it.
Speaking of which, there should be a few captains of the clan leader's bodyguard like Jed here, right?
Murphy thought so, and when the blood wings suddenly unfolded and folded behind his back, he killed the enemy in the dark depths like lightning. He had a strong hunch that after opening the corridor in front of him, his Tomb Sword Guard swordsmanship should be able to
Upgrading to "Mastery", the character level is estimated to be raised to 12-13.
Upgrading after Black Iron Body is really difficult, but once you master the correct upgrading method, it becomes easier. The only regret is that the levels of this "game" have no meaning other than looking good.
Only when you go through the strength trial of level 10 and level 1 can you get a real improvement in strength.
Murphy has long realized that the accumulation of combat experience and the honing of skills are also a very important part of personal strength, and can even be said to be more important than the improvement of strength itself.
"Duh duh duh"
The crossbow arrow pierced from the shadow made Murphy, who was hunting his crazy compatriots, jump to close his wings. Then, as expected, he was pierced by the sharp arrow. Fortunately, the blood wing was not physically torn apart and did not feel pain.
It was just that he needed to reshape and recover his psychic energy, temporarily losing his ability to fly.
The vampire reacted quickly. After realizing that the dangerous killer was hiding around him, he immediately retreated into the shadows with the giant astral wolf, letting his breath gather while carefully observing the surroundings.
He saw a strange-looking vampire striding out from the depths of the passage, escorted by four crazy and skinny companions.
This guy is several times fatter than a well-proportioned and slender vampire, and his obvious general belly is holding up his luxurious robes. He is like a fat vampire who is ten months pregnant? This is really strange in the vampire clan where "appearance anxiety" is common!
And this guy's dress is even more luxurious. He wears several rings on his fat fingers. He is full of jewels. There is also a small crown decorated with scarlet on his short head.
It's like a walking treasure shelf.
This fat vampire is holding a scarlet hand crossbow, which is not the low-level product Murphy is using now.
The delicate thing decorated with the wings of a night bat has an encapsulated body that can hear the movement of the gears coming from it, allowing it to fire continuously without having to wind it up.
The three crossbow arrows that almost pierced his head just now were shot by this guy.
However, this guy is just as crazy as other vampires. He walks with a swaying posture and is completely devoid of proper dignity. Moreover, there is a bunch of keys hanging on his belt, which make a jingling sound when walking.
Just like the collar bell around a cat's neck, it reminds the mouse hiding in the dark that danger is coming.
Murphy narrowed his eyes and threw a range of reconnaissance in front of him, and the message jumped out:
Name: Zuckerberg "Scrooge" LeSembra
Rank: Silver Body·Blood Source Weakness (all attributes reduced by 30%)
Status: Confused thinking, out of control, pampered, slow to respond, adhering to duties
Occupation: Level 13 Midnight Hunter/Level 15 Treasure House Guard/Accounting and Loan Sharing Specialization
Special items to carry: Blood Vulture Secret Treasure House Seal
Rating:Dangerous
Character description:
[As the administrator of the Blood Vulture Family’s secret treasure trove and the patriarch’s most trusted accountant, Zuckerberg has increased the Blood Vulture Family’s wealth fivefold in a hundred years, and his own small treasury has doubled in the process.
A full fourteen times.
Of course, it's hard to say that Zuckerberg is a bastard because of this. After all, his reputation in the Cadman City loan sharking circle is still very good.
For those who cannot repay their debts, he will never take their lives, but will only send them to the mines of the sinful dwarves in the Dark Mountains to work until they die, in order to squeeze out the last bit of profit.
This vampire master is not interested in the physical act of sucking human blood.
He is obviously a high-style vampire who has escaped from low-level tastes, and can even be barely called a qualified capitalist.】
"You are the one!"
Murphy's eyes lit up.
It seems that the two achievements of Elite Certificate and Treasure Stealing Goblin can be completed at the same time, but there is a price to pay.
He had almost no hesitation. The moment the reconnaissance technique was sensed by the opponent and the scarlet hand crossbow was raised, Murphy rushed into Zuckerberg's side with three consecutive assault steps. The tomb badge on his wrist was at full strength at this moment.
excitation.
Group·Death Grip Release!
The cold death spirit grabbed five crazy vampires, including Zuckerberg, from the ground at the same time, cut off the legs of two skinny guards in a very fast assault, and then executed them with blood claws.
The heart of the third weak vampire, the giant astral wolf also pounced on one of the captured targets, biting wildly, biting most of the latter's neck open.
After this set of combos, Murphy retreated without hesitation.
He accurately calculated the remaining amount of death energy in the tomb badge, and he could conduct two such attacks to make him more confident.
The Zuckerberg in front of him was obviously a vampire who was good at long-range attacks. His awkward reaction in close combat made Murphy confident that he could defeat him.
Hey, isn’t that what capitalists are like?
To say that they bully the weak and fear the strong is flattering them, not to mention that he has a loyal dog helping him!
But what does this mean?
Starting with a dog, does all the equipment depend on picking up?
Fifteen minutes later, when the old knight rushed to the left corridor with a hammer and shield, he saw Murphy humming a weird song with his hands behind his back under the protection of four resentful spirits. He came from a mysterious building that was closing next to him.
Get out of things.
There is a scarlet night bat hand crossbow hanging on his waist, and an exquisite seal is thrown up and down in his hand. The giant star wolf under his feet has a luxurious blood-colored spiked collar on its neck. It seems that he is still a high-level man.
Psychic items.
In the shadows not far behind him, a faded stone statue of a unique fat vampire still maintained his posture of begging for mercy before his death, but the cruel wound on his heart represented Murphy's merciless execution of him.
Soon, the four vengeful spirits evoked by the professional power of the Tomb Sword Guard disappeared into the cold air as the battle ended.
"You seem to be in a good mood. Did something good happen to you?"
The old knight asked, and Murphy pointed to the closed door of the secret treasure house behind him and said:
"I found the family treasury of the Blood Eagle Clan. There are a lot of good things in it. How about giving it to you? One-fifth! No more."
"Money and treasure are of no use to me."
The old knight shook his head and said:
"Now that this place has been cleared, it's time to move forward. However, I have underestimated you, and your people have also underestimated you. Murphy, your elder Tris knows that you have hidden more than most of your compatriots.
The power?”
"No, in her eyes I am just a lucky but weak member of the fringe of the family."
Murphy shrugged and said in a mysterious and relaxed tone:
"I haven't told her this yet. I'm afraid of scaring her. She is very fragile now and should be well protected without adding more burdens. Therefore, I can even share more treasures with you. Please help me keep this secret."
The old knight ignored the vampire joke.
He turned around and walked quickly towards the door at the end of the corridor. Pushing it open, he could enter the location of the Blood Vulture Sacred Pond. He and Murphy grabbed the edges of the heavy door on the left and right, and opened a gap while pulling hard.
The next second, a terrifying and frantic spiritual energy surged out from it.
It was not the astral psychic power they expected!
Far from it!
That is an ancient aura ten times more wild and chaotic than the spiritual energy of the astral world!
The face of the old knight who was exposed to the wind of the spiritual world changed drastically. The oak armor on his body flashed with colorful psychic protection like an LED marquee. Murphy, who had no protection, was even worse. His whole body seemed to be hit hard.
After being hit by the hammer, he groaned and fell to the ground with a dull breath.
The giant wolf in the astral realm was even worse, and was expelled back to the star realm with a roar.
It's not dead.
But the psychic energy in front of him banished it!
"boom"
Old Finock closed the door with all his strength, so that the damn, crazy breath that made him frightened would not continue to flow out.
He leaned on the door and panted, shaking his head constantly, and even reached out to slap his helmet to try to wake himself up from the entanglement of phantom sounds and illusions. The light spots on the sacred oak armor on his body also gradually dimmed, seeming to represent
The danger has just passed.
In this dead corridor, amidst the heavy breathing of the two men, Murphy rubbed his head that was so painful that it was about to explode, and raised his head to look at the old knight.
He asked:
"Then what is that thing? I seem to see the stars in the sky smiling at me? The dark nebula is whispering to me?"
The old knight glanced at him.
The golden man tremblingly took out his dwarf pipe and held it to his mouth. He rubbed his fingers to make a fire three times before lighting the tobacco.
"Damn it! The psychic riot of the astral tearing spell concealed the truth hidden underground. I knew that what happened in Cadman City was not as simple as it seemed. We were used! The Plantagenet Kingdom and Luo
General Lun was taken advantage of!
This is their real purpose.
A subspace rift is opening in the material world with the Blood Vulture Sacred Pond as a beacon. Even Sarokdar is just a sacrifice!"
Old Finock calmed down with the help of tobacco. He rubbed his forehead vigorously and whispered:
"Murphy, things are in trouble!"
At the same time, in a secret room under the complex structure of the corridor, Maxim and Adele held swords in their left and right hands to protect a strange psychic device that was rising from the ground.
In front of them, Natalie and his team members were pressing over.
The gray-haired witcher slowly pulled out the strange-looking silver sword from her waist and said sternly:
"I knew you vampire dogs couldn't be trusted! Get out of there! Now!"
Maxim and Mrs. Adele looked at each other, and then the two responded to the threat in front of them with practical actions. They raised their weapons, and the four witch hunters opposite also unsheathed their swords.
The two groups of people fought together without any communication.
Just like all the stories about witch hunters and evil spirits in the past thousand years, lies cannot hide the truth, and only swords are the only language that both parties can understand.
