Chapter 45 45. Handsome Murphy’s Ambition·Crisis and Opportunity
Lumina, who looked confused, and four other young players had just come online when Tris threw them a mission.
Fortunately, they had read the update announcement on the forum before, and knew that the charming and sexy NPC in front of them was an important plot character, so they accepted the mission without hesitation. They also accepted the main mission of Disaster Day from Murphy, and then followed.
The route suggested by friends in the group started to explore the city.
It is already night in the real world. Except for these five players who have just come online due to special reasons, most of the players have already used up their game time today and have collectively gone offline in the broken sheds on the city wall defense line.
This made the five little players feel a little lonely, but soon they had no time to be lonely anymore.
Because there are so many things to do in the ruins of the city!
Although several blocks near the city wall had been searched by others during the day, there were still many detailed areas that had not been cleaned up. The careful Lumina quickly found what Mrs. Tracey needed in a half-collapsed store.
of old wine, and also rescued the boss’s family from the basement that was trapped by debris.
They were trapped for more than 6 hours. They were tired, hungry and scared. When they were rescued by Lumina and the five others, they had to kowtow to thank them.
"The interaction mode of this NPC is so real. I just saw that little girl hiding in her mother's arms and wiping her tears. Other games don't have this detail."
The man carrying a dump truck carrying a gun said to the shovel next to him while searching for things on the street:
"Do you think it's possible that all the NPCs in this game are played by intelligence? Shovel, what are you looking at? You're so lost in thought."
The forklift man in question withdrew his gaze from the miserable ruins and whispered:
"It has been more than 6 hours since this city was dragged into the disaster, right? People trapped like this boss and his family can still survive now, but it will be hard to say if it lasts longer. Remember what we did for the fire protection system before?
Those lists?
Listen to them, the probability of surviving after 24 hours in the real world is "
"This is a game!"
The dump truck curled his lips disapprovingly and said:
"It only takes one line of code to keep them alive. You are thinking too much."
"Yes, I know this is a game, but this game claims to be completely realistic. Don't ignore this! If the development team can really achieve 100% simulation and they are willing to design it this way, then the NPC buried in the city will definitely
Won’t survive tomorrow night!”
Shovel shook his head stubbornly and said:
"I don't doubt that they have the technology to achieve the kind of reality they want. I doubt, um, just doubt. Read the mission description carefully. It clearly states that the number of NPCs we rescue will affect
Subsequent plot development.
I began to suspect that this was a trap planted by the development team, do you understand what I mean?
They didn’t point this out on purpose, probably because they wanted us to discover it ourselves!”
"Damn! You really mean something when you say that."
Dump Truck pondered for a moment and read the main mission description over and over again, then patted his knees hard and said:
"The two of us are probably going to be awesome this time. Let's go quickly, check out the NPC's tone, and call the three of them together."
"Um."
Shovel went over and told his guess to Lumina, Jie Chong and Brother Heisi. The two rough guys thought that Brother Shovel was thinking too much, but Lumina didn't think so.
This girl with a super high IQ thinks that Brother Shovel's guess is correct.
So the five people escorted the store owner and his family back to the safe area of the city wall. After giving Tris a task and getting high praise from the other party, they ran to Murphy who was hunting those fear derivatives alone, and put
Their speculations and concerns spoke to Murphy.
"It's great that you noticed this, I also overlooked this important situation!"
Murphy was also shocked.
He suddenly found that he had been too immersed in the player's thinking in recent days and ignored the truth of the world. To him, this horse riding was not a game at all! These civilians trapped in the ruins of the city were sleepy, hungry and trapped.
It is absolutely impossible to survive for more than two days when the astral energy is eroded.
And he, a real vampire, still needs the player to remind him of this, which is really a mistake.
Although Murphy didn't care too much about the life and death of unfriendly people in this city, the unexpected ideas brought to him by these five cuties inadvertently brought him new inspiration.
Just like his previous thoughts on the secret vault, the last part of the novice guidance mission requires Murphy to get his own exclusive territory. Now the Blood Eagle Clan has been raided, its ruling system has completely collapsed, and Cadman City is about to be engulfed by the star realm.
Under such circumstances, all the manpower and material resources in the city can be used by him!
He can take this rescue opportunity to make use of the indigenous manpower he currently has on hand, and start from this rescue to establish his own prestige and governance system among the survivors of Cadman City.
After all, what is more worthy of following than a leader who can lead everyone out of disaster and find a new life?
Murphy blinked.
He is also an official member of the Blood Vulture Clan.
Under the current circumstances, as the last member of the vampire family that has ruled this area for more than four hundred years, it is only natural for me to inherit the Blood Vulture Clan's rule over this land and people, right?
Therefore, if everything is done properly, the disaster that happened in Cadman City may not be a trouble for him, but it can become the absolute key to complete the novice guidance and break the situation!
Yes.
This idea and plan is completely feasible!
The premise is that he can really lead the survivors to save more lives from the ruins, so that they can intuitively see his ability, wisdom and strength.
Murphy made up his mind in just a few seconds, and the various thoughts revealed on his expression were noticed by the players, which refreshed their spirits.
Is it possible that there really is a hidden mission?
"Ding"
As Murphy held the computing orb hanging on his chest, a few seconds later, the wonderful sound of a mission triggering made the five players all lower their heads and look at their player interfaces:
[Large-scale hidden mission·"Dangerous City Rescue" has been triggered!
Mission description: Thanks to your keenness and kindness, the vampire Murphy, who is cold in appearance but kind in heart, finally realized the biggest hidden danger in the city at the moment. He decided to take action immediately, and he hopes that you can also join this race against death.
.
Mission time limit: until the search and rescue of the ruins in the outer city is completed.
Task rewards: distributed based on task completion.】
"Damn! It really does!"
The dump truck clenched his fist fiercely and whispered to the shovel beside him:
"It's so well hidden. Fortunately, you've kept an eye out for it."
"I also suddenly thought of it."
Brother Shovel was a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and then said with a serious expression:
"The biggest problem now is that we don't have the professional tools to find the trapped people. We rely solely on manpower to find them. Even if we bring all 16 players, we won't be able to save a few people."
"No, my warriors, you have overlooked a very important point."
Murphy, who was already confident and ready to take action, shook his head and said to his little players:
"There are forces in this world that you cannot understand. Leave it to me to confirm the location of the survivors. You should rush to the survivor camp immediately! Pass my order to the supervisor there, Miss Miriam, and ask her to send all
Gather all healthy adult men who can still move.
I need them to participate in this rescue of their fellow citizens.
Maxim!
You escort my warriors over and help Miriam gather those people."
Murphy said to his loyal servants and young players:
"Restoring order is not a simple matter. In the current situation, we must learn to use violence.
Those who take the opportunity to cause trouble in the camp, those who disobey management, those who challenge Miriam's majesty, those who plan to escape! Those black sheep who do not intend to abide by the rules in the disaster, will be executed on the spot in my name!
I need to let them know who can lead them at this time!
I also need to let them know that obeying my orders at this time can help them get out of this nightmare faster."
"As you command, my lord!"
Maxim felt that what Mr. Murphy said was very reasonable, and he accepted the order without any psychological pressure. He had always regarded spreading the majesty of Mr. Murphy as his duty and mission, and then brought a few horses to the little boy.
player.
The dump truck knew how to ride a horse and went ahead with a shovel. The other three people didn't know much about it, but they were all docile old horses and they went on the road smoothly under Maxim's leadership.
Miriam's survivor camp is still some distance from the city because it needs to avoid the impact of astral energy.
Taking advantage of this time, Murphy found the eldest lady who was emoting on the edge of the defense line and Mrs. Adele beside her. The latter's expression was very complicated when she saw Murphy. There was a voice in her heart asking her to give Murphy all her body.
She is loyal to her heart, but her own reason is obviously somewhat resistant to this call.
But Murphy doesn't care about his first heir's current hesitation.
He looked at the eldest lady with a numb face, sorted out the draft in his mind, and said to her:
"There are many people trapped in the city. They are unable to escape on their own, and I am planning to organize people to rescue them. Not because they are important to me, but because Cadman City is the territory of the Blood Vulture Clan.
We, the Blood Vultures, have a responsibility to them.
I hope you can join me!
Vampires' keen sense of life allows us to easily locate the living people, and there are still 5 hours until dawn. If we are fast enough, we can rescue at least hundreds of people.
I remember when we first met, you praised me for the revenge I carried out for the people of the Blood Vulture. Do you also think that protecting the people of the territory is your duty?"
The eldest lady did not answer.
She was sitting on the stone as if she had lost her luster. She had been in this state since talking to Tris. She must have suffered a terrible blow because she saw something unacceptable in the inner city.
Murphy waited for a few seconds, then shook his head when the eldest lady did not answer, stood up and said to Mrs. Adele:
"I ask you to join this action! In the name of your elders."
"I"
Mrs. Adele's expression changed.
She clenched her fists, but then loosened them, lowered her head submissively, and said in a hoarse voice:
"As you wish, Lord Murphy."
"Let's go, we don't have much time."
Murphy waved and led Mrs. Adele towards Tris.
He needs to plan three paths before taking action to maximize efficiency, and the only thing he is lucky about now is that the rift in the city splits the entire city in two, leaving only the area left for Murphy and the little players to explore the original city.
One quarter.
Although it's a bit cruel to say this.
But when the remaining three-quarters of the city was completely engulfed by the terrifying astral energy and the astral beasts and fear derivatives were raging, there was basically no need to look there.
Unless a miracle happens in this dark place, it is impossible for ordinary people to survive in that situation.
"Murphy!"
Just when Murphy turned around and walked away for a few steps, the eldest lady's dry and hoarse voice came from behind him. The embarrassed and lost Fuloli stood up straight, looking at Murphy, a marginalized member of the family, with desperate eyes.
she says:
"The Blood Vulture is finished. Literally! Our family's holy pool has been polluted. I have seen it with my own eyes. The entire Blood Vulture Corridor is shrouded in dangerous energy that I can't understand. The filth of our most elite people in the star realm
Struggling painfully, they could not leave the corridor.
They are hopeless!
There are only a few of us left, Murphy, we are the last blood vultures.
We have no home!”
"No wonder she was hit like this."
Murphy suddenly understood that the eldest lady, who puts the interests of the family first in everything, might not be able to accept the fact that her family is gone for a while, but unfortunately, not everyone can understand her emotion.
Such as Murphy
He turned his head and glanced at the eldest lady, and said in a serious tone:
"Does this have anything to do with what you are going to do now? Does this have anything to do with the civilians who are trapped in the city and are afraid of dying at any time? Miss, you can fly away, no one can stop you.
Or, you can do something last for those in this city who contributed blood tax to the prosperity of the Blood Vulture Clan.
In fact, in my heart, I have always felt that you are incompatible with other vampires. I don't know why I think this way, but I can feel that your attitude towards humans is really different from other vampires.
Maybe we can work together?”
"But what exactly are you going to do now?"
The eldest lady burst out suddenly. She grabbed her hair and screamed:
"I have heard everything you ordered your servants to do. You deliberately promoted your majesty and power among the survivors. What are you going to do? Are you going to win people's hearts? Are you going to step on the bones of the blood vulture to build your own?
family?
You careerist and traitor!"
"She saw through it at a glance. Is it because I'm pretending too badly or does this young lady really have something up her sleeve?"
Murphy was a little puzzled.
He felt that he had hidden his thoughts well enough, but when he thought that the opposite person might be an old goblin who was hundreds of years old, it all made sense.
His moral integrity was really not good enough in front of others, so Murphy simply admitted it like a bachelor.
He nodded and said:
"I do plan to do this! Let me tell you the truth, Femis, the Blood Eagle Clan that you love and are willing to sacrifice everything for is completely different in my eyes. I don't plan to be buried with it, but I do want to
Let those who call you 'masters' live.
It doesn't matter if you don't want to help!
Just don't cause trouble. I'm not afraid of you as long as Tris is here.
Another traitor?
Oh, although I don’t know what you encountered in Smuggler’s Grove, how did you survive? Miss, why did that scary guy who slaughtered the entire Midnight Hunters let you go? It’s not because you are cute.
Bar?"
Murphy narrowed his eyes and asked:
"So, before you accuse me from the moral high ground of your family, please clear yourself of any suspicion."
"Don't spit on anyone!"
Femis's face turned red.
She was about to retort, but she found Tris standing faintly in the darkness not far away, pointing at her heart with a strong sense of threat.
The eldest lady who was angry just now was like a deflated rubber ball, and her whole spirit weakened under Murphy's surprised gaze.
She waved her hands feebly and said:
"Okay, I'll help you, but I also have my own requirements! After the astral tide recedes, you must go to the Blood Vulture Corridor with me. I want to figure out some things!
And in this matter, I can’t trust anyone except the last Blood Eagle members, that is, you and Adele.”
PS:
Now it seems that there is a "Reader Correction" function. If you see typos, please correct them. I can see them in the background and modify them.
I really need this feature.
In addition, there seem to be a lot of scam calls recently. I answered five unknown numbers yesterday. In short, everyone should watch their own money and don't talk to strange strangers casually!
