Chapter 38 38. Millions of dollars are burning in every frame!
As they got closer to Cadman City, the two "sentinels" Ah Yu and San Wu Dou who were staying on the cart were chatting happily when they saw their own NPC jumping over. They immediately got up and ran over to get close to Murphy.
The vampire rolled his eyes, and then said to the two young players in the tone of an NPC issuing a mission:
"In ten more minutes, we will reach Cadman City.
Perhaps I should explain to you the taboos about that city to prevent you from encountering unnecessary risks. In addition, you should also come with me to see my elder, Mrs. Tracey.
She is a quite 'maverick' vampire, and there are some things I must make clear in advance."
"Ding"
The sound of triggering the mission "One Day Tour to Cadman City" immediately cheered up the two young players, and then they started calling others in the game group to come online according to the instructions.
The main mission of the new area has been activated.
Stop trying to catch a fish and come up quickly to do the task!
Their shouts had an extraordinary effect. Within five minutes, the little players got up from lying dead, and 11 little players gathered around Murphy, ready to listen to the NPC.
The five guys who died in the woodland sniper battle will be resurrected tonight. Then they will appear directly in Cadman City and save two days and two nights of traveling, which makes people feel a little envious for a while.
It can be seen that players are very interested in the first "main city" that appears in the game.
One by one, they stood on the cart and took out the captured telescopes to look at the city, and expressed their own opinions from time to time.
Murphy originally planned to use this time to tell the players about the local customs, but before he could speak, the second carriage in front suddenly vibrated.
As Murphy watched in surprise, Miss Femis, who was supposed to be sleeping beautifully in the coffin for her "beauty sleep", actually appeared on her own initiative and jumped onto the roof of the car in a way that did not suit her elegant posture.
"Look! Rich Loli has been refreshed!"
The electronic succubus in the crowd shouted, and the players were also amazed.
They have figured out the spawning rules of these NPCs in the past two days. Because they are serious vampires, Miss Femis will only appear after nightfall.
This NPC has a very cold personality.
But if you behave appropriately and humbly and speak nice words, she will also give you some pointers on how to use psychic powers. There are already many guys who are better at acting who have learned the basic skill of "psionic impact" from the eldest lady.
Although the psychic talent in this world is already determined when an individual is born, players obviously fall into the category of "cannot be easily explained".
Not only can they clearly perceive psychic energy, but they can also learn psychic skills very quickly, which makes the eldest lady amazed in her heart.
Although it wasn't visible on the surface, she actually became interested in Murphy's unique group of minions.
Murphy said that these warriors were mountain people from the north that he had gathered in the village of Moreland. The eldest lady did not believe a word of this nonsense, but Murphy was unwilling to say it, and she would not take the initiative to ask.
Anyway, the existence of these people is not dangerous to the Blood Eagle Clan.
Murphy knew something was wrong when he saw the eldest lady taking the initiative. He rushed over and asked:
"What's wrong?"
"Psychic energy is gathering abnormally! The speed is very fast. A huge amount of psychic energy has entangled around Cadman City and even formed a tide. The psychic communication between me and the Blood Eagle Corridor has been blocked for the past two days. Perhaps it is because of this
.
Something must have happened in the city!"
The eldest lady's face was very ugly. She felt uneasy, so she stretched out her broad blood wings and floated in the air in the cloudy environment. She lowered her head and said to Murphy:
"I'll go back and take a look first, speed up!"
"Um."
Murphy nodded with a serious face and watched as the eldest lady folded her wings in the air, then jumped up and accelerated into subsonic speed, disappearing in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.
"Fu Loli flew away!"
"Wow, her wings are so cool. Isn't this dog very good at planning?"
The little players were making a fuss.
Others used the video function of the gaming helmet to record this segment, but Murphy had already rushed to the front of the car and shouted to Maxim:
"Quick! Speed up, there's something going on in the city!"
The loyal servant's expression immediately changed, and he raised his whip and hit the pack horse pulling the cart to increase the speed. However, less than a minute passed before Murphy felt what the eldest lady had mentioned before about the psychic agitation.
As a psychic apprentice, he can clearly feel that the free psychic energy in the surrounding environment is continuously gathering and increasing at a terrifying speed, as if an invisible storm has been brewing to the end, which will be enough to destroy everything.
, a terrifying thing like a tornado that flattens everything!
For those who can sense psychic energy, the direction of Cadman City is like a super atmospheric pressure rotating.
The pressure of that force made Murphy's breathing become heavy.
"What the hell is this?"
He was under the pressure caused by the huge amount of psychic chaos. He panted and looked at the city, and the unknown feeling in his heart became more and more real.
He actually has no special feelings for this city.
But the thing is Tris is still in town, so don't.
"Fuck! The sky is leaking!"
A strange cry from Mew Mew completely shattered Murphy's fantasy.
The vampire and his loyal servant suddenly looked up and saw that the cloudy sky today seemed to be torn apart.
Indescribable black energy gushes out from the sudden cracks in the sky like smoke. Those weird things form entities in the material world, and you can still vaguely see the dancing stars in them.
Like a dark nebula emerging in the daytime.
Murphy didn't know what it was, but the Cadman City in front of him was shrouded in black material from the sky, like an object being pulled in a black storm.
The vampire maximizes his vision.
He could even see the Sarokdar statue on the top of the city's tallest blood vulture spire being decomposed into rubble that defied gravity and flew in the purple streamer storm.
But all this is just the beginning.
Only half a minute after the sky split open, a meteorite wrapped in black flames roared down from the sky.
Amidst the shocked roars of a group of young players, it hit the center of Cadman City hard, and then one piece after another of dimensional meteorites continued to fall, causing the dark nebula that poured down from the sky to devour the package and ignite the flames that reached the sky.
.
In just a few minutes, the medieval-style majestic city in front of the player's eyes seemed to have been wiped off a third of the ground by a naughty child's hand.
Black cracks were generated in the tremors of the earth and slashed across the city, swallowing the collapsed buildings under the earth, as if they were included in the doomsday scene where the gate to hell opened.
The bombardment of the meteorite brought a terrifying muffled sound, as well as the violent wind caused by the collision and annihilation of a huge amount of psychic energy, which made the horses pulling the cart panic.
Murphy could see many panicked vampires flapping their wings and rushing out of the city, but they would soon be trapped in the entangled package of dark smoke energy, like small bugs that had crashed into a spider web, with no time to struggle.
In just a few strokes, it will be completely swallowed up by the power from the star realm.
"Trish."
Murphy called softly, then clenched his fists, stood up and rushed towards the packhorse, but was stopped by Maxim.
The loyal servants could not watch helplessly as Murphy rushed towards the disaster that was absolutely unstoppable by human power. However, the vampire slipped away in a weird and elegant way and jumped behind the pack horse. He unsheathed his swift sword and cut off the harness.
.
He stretched out his hand and slapped the old horse's neck hard, and it neighed and rushed forward.
Murphy knew he had to get back before things got worse! He had to get into that city, no matter what the hell was causing trouble in that damn place.
Because Tris is still there!
The useless monster girl who saved him more than a month ago and stayed with him for a month when he was alone and weakest in another world is still in the city.
He could convince himself that he was taking care of Tris, but the fact was that it was Tris who protected him through the most helpless time when he first arrived in another world.
"Don't die!"
Murphy gritted his teeth and roared in his heart:
"I won't let you die! I'm back and I'll be by your side right away! Hold on!"
"The dog planner is back to work again!"
The young players at this moment were stunned by the "cut scene", and the good pigeons in the crowd bit their fingers and screamed:
"We did something like this when we just arrived and we haven't even entered the city yet. It's obviously like the CG in the opening scene! A city was wiped out like this? How exciting."
"The picture quality is absolutely insane. I feel like this is a CG scene calculated in real time. Every frame smells like money is burning."
"Hey, I recorded it and will post it to the forum later so that those five unlucky guys can drool."
"But the promised main city is gone, what should we do next?"
The players quarreled, and then the sharp-eyed Cheche suddenly shouted:
"Look! NPC! Lord Murphy is running past on a horse!"
As soon as they turned around, they saw Murphy riding the old horse towards Cadman City, which was being ravaged by the disaster. Then he was swallowed up by the black wind with astral psychic energy coming from the front, and just disappeared in
into the yellow sand scattered all over the sky.
"Mission! It must be a triggering mission! Maybe it's the main mission!"
Happy Stick shouted and said:
"Let's go! Whoever knows how to drive a car should follow him quickly! Damn, it looks like he has to learn to ride a horse soon."
——
At this time, in Cadman City, which was in chaos like the end of the world, Tris's dilapidated manor house had collapsed as the ground tore apart.
Cuisi, who was wearing a red coat, held the light blade that gathered spiritual energy in her hand with disheveled hair. She covered her abdomen and moved towards the wall with difficulty.
Behind Tris were two grotesque beasts. The killed corpses fell to the ground and began to decompose into black and gray astral spiritual energy, making the filthy atmosphere in the dusty and shaking manor even stronger.
These real alien creatures were thrown into the material world when the astral rift opened. In the process of the entire Cadman City being crushed and pulled towards the astral realm, these vicious creatures are taking advantage of the chaos to feast on it.
It's a pity that these two chose the wrong opponent.
No matter how useless Tris was, she had been an elder before, so there was no pressure to deal with the two brainless beasts, but out of control of her psychic powers caused Tris's old injuries to relapse.
Her whole body would tremble with every step she took.
"boom"
Tris's feet gave way and she fell in front of the kitchen.
She leaned against the dusty wall and gasped, looking at the city outside the collapsed main house wall that had been completely shrouded in black smoke and flames.
“The little bastard promised to come back in seven days, but I keep ordering a bottle of wine every day to please myself, but it’s already the eighth day and I haven’t seen anyone. I’m going to die!
But there wasn’t even anyone to collect the bodies.”
The useless monster girl complained fiercely.
She put away the psychic blade in her hand, reached out and pulled the 800-proof steam-breaking refrigerator that had fallen to the ground, and with difficulty picked up the last half bottle of wine from it.
She scolded little Murphy for being unethical, but in fact Tris was actually more happy to see this development. With Murphy's cleverness, he must have listened to the words she warned when she left.
Perhaps now my little Murphy has fled all the way north through the northeastern part of Transia and entered the Kingdom of Nordtof. Although life in those Yankee hometowns with bad climate is not a beautiful thing, it is still better than living in it.
It would be better to stay in Transia and wait for death.
"Well, he must have left, right?"
Tris took a swig of wine to suppress the severe pain of the wound.
As a result, when she turned around, she saw that the bread that Murphy had left for her before leaving had been scattered everywhere in the shock, and there was a little sadness that could not be concealed on her pale face:
"It's good to go.
Only by staying away from me, a useless person who brings misfortune, can you little guy enjoy the life that you have finally snatched back. From now on, we will be far apart, and I will be very satisfied if I can write a letter back when I have nothing to do.
If there really is a postman who can send letters to the star realm."
She made a small complaint and raised her head in the ruins of the manor that was gradually collapsing and decomposing, looking at the sky that had been completely covered by black smoke-like astral energy.
You can still vaguely see nebula-like light spots beating, which is the mysterious and chaotic star realm opening a channel in the material world.
Tris can clearly feel that the foundation of Cadman City is being destroyed.
The city will be pulled into the Astral Plane or worse, torn apart at the boundary between the material world and the Astral Plane, but this is a planned attack.
After all, the star world has been very stable for the past hundreds of years, and it is impossible for such devastating fluctuations to occur without warning.
The other party must have used unimaginable manpower and material resources to accomplish all this, and the "Serenade" barrier that was supposed to protect the city has not been opened, and something big must have happened within the Blood Vulture Clan.
Who is it?
Tris's expression changed from pain to thinking, and then quickly changed from thinking to a look of indifference.
No matter who did it!
Cadman City is doomed today!
Even the Blood Vulture clan would be severely damaged or even completely buried. The scene that I had been looking forward to for more than a hundred years actually came true today without any warning.
"Haha, some passing Star God brother gave this bad breath to Tris! Hahahaha."
The decadent Cuisi raised her head and took a big sip of wine. She stared at the changes in the sky and murmured to herself:
"This is retribution! Sarokdar, do you see it? This is retribution for you bitch! Everything you have built in the past 400 years will be destroyed in a few minutes today.
You deserve it all!
Yes Yes!
I know I can't escape either.
I will also die here, but no matter what, it is enough for me to see all this before I die, and the only little Murphy who has cared about me in these more than a hundred years of desolation is already gone.
My cute little Murphy
Let's live a good life far away.
Don't be too sad when you receive the news of my death. This is just a relief for your poor elder. A smart and cute little guy like you will definitely be able to find other sources of support."
"boom"
There was another loud noise, and the entire surface of Tris's manor was torn apart.
In the surging black and gray smoke, the cry of some kind of monster could be clearly heard under the collapsed ruins. The gray-headed Tris struggled to pull her legs out of the bricks. She wanted to leave, but everything was blocked.
Filthy Psychic Blockade.
She has nowhere to go.
Then Tris relaxed completely.
She raised the last bit of wine in her hand, as if saying goodbye to the entire city.
"Good night, Cadman City. Farewell, Blood Eagle. Little Murphy. If you can hear me, don't come back! This city is already hopeless."
