Chapter 524 523 closed beta is about to end, can the closed beta be far behind?
Chapter 524 523. The closed beta is about to end, can the closed beta be far behind? - [Monthly ticket additional update 510]
"Look at what you've done to yourself. They thought it was just a plot, but those little guys who are extremely loyal to you would never have imagined that just now they almost killed you with their own hands."
While the warriors were excited about challenging the astral demigods, in the lounge of the roaring sewer arena, Tris hugged Murphy who was resting with his eyes closed and said with a distressed look on his face:
"If you hadn't signed a contract with the Endless One in advance and gained new power, I'm afraid something would have happened today. As you said, many people underestimated your warrior, even you.
Actually, so do I."
"It's okay, it just looks dangerous."
The ability of midnight regeneration allowed Murphy's blood volume to slowly recover, and his body, which was aching from the fierce battle, also relaxed. He behaved quite quietly in Tris's arms, holding a jar of source blood in his hand but not using it.
.
Faced with Tris's reproach, the vampire responded softly:
"Based on more than four months of martial arts training, their performance is really perfect, right? If they were packed up and thrown into the Dark Mountains, they wouldn't be wiped out casually.
The victory in Plague Town and today's perfect performance have proven that our training and guidance during the closed beta phase were generally successful. When the next phase of more intense conflict arrives, we will be able to lead them with a magnanimous mind.
Embark on more intense and cruel battlefields without having to worry about them collapsing under the pressure.
We can't just throw a bunch of new recruits into the battlefield of Black Disaster."
"Well, from the perspective of the development team, today's trial was indeed quite perfect."
Tris sighed helplessly and reached out to touch Murphy's handsome cheek. She leaned down and left a cold kiss on the vampire governor's forehead and hoped that such intimacy could relieve Murphy's weakness and pain at this time. She said:
"So, have you decided to end the closed beta?"
"Players have proven that they are capable of advancing to the next level. We can't always maintain the 'novice protection period', right?"
Murphy unscrewed the cap of the blood source and took a small sip. He suddenly felt energetic as if he had taken a strong drink.
He smiled and said:
“I originally planned to enter internal testing when the black disaster fully broke out, but now it seems that maybe we can set aside some time for them to adapt to the ‘new map’ that will be opened soon.
I plan to start a new version of the ship after they arrive at the barren mountain defense line and complete a series of "Eve of Black Disaster" guidance missions. It is expected to be "out of service for maintenance" for about three days, leaving us time to finalize the main mission design of the new map.
, and then the entire Dark Mountains map can be opened to them.
I still have many, many new ideas, and I still have... Hmm? Shani is here?"
The Governor stopped talking. He wanted to get up from Tris's arms and straighten his clothes, but he was hugged tighter by the hands of the Blood Vulture Archduke.
Obviously, Tris did it on purpose.
Not only because of some kind of resistance between the Duke of Blood Vulture and the Duke of Thorns, but also because of some unique "emotions" of Tris.
Murphy, a little stinky man, may not be aware of it, but Tris can rely on a woman's intuition to discover that Shani, a flirtatious fox, has some kind of "dangerous curiosity" about Murphy, and the worst thing is that Murphy has admitted it before
, he really admired Mrs. Shani's disguised "dignified wife manners".
"boom"
The door of the lounge was pushed open a small gap, and the Duke of Thorns stuck his head out like a groundhog, taking a sneaky peek at the situation in the room while his braids were swaying.
When she saw Tris hugging Murphy intimately, her eyes flashed, but the fact that their clothes were not messy made her gossip quickly turn into disappointment.
"Let me tell you, the relationship between you two should still be pure, right? Logically speaking, it shouldn't be."
Shani pushed the door open and came in, leaning against the door again and jokingly said:
"Are you still vampires? What an embarrassment to our race!"
"You have something to say!"
Tris snorted unhappily, Shani shrugged, her eyes flashed to the source of blood jar in Murphy's hand. The Duke of Thorns felt that she had discovered another little secret about Murphy, and she crossed her arms.
Said directly without any disguise:
"I saw the amazing performance of your warriors, which gave me a new idea. Didn't you say before that I would open up some of the Thorns Clan's resources to them? I thought about it and decided to adopt your opinion.
If your warriors are truly willing to serve the Thorn Clan, Andre's White Mountain Faction can serve as their new home.
But I’m curious, will you really hand over the management of such a useful desperado to me?”
"I have emphasized before that foreigners can move freely on this continent. They are 'born and grow' from the cradle of Transia, but they cannot always stay in the cradle. After they have proven their strength, they can explore the world.
Finally, I will not interfere with their ideas of who they serve."
Murphy sat up immediately after hearing Shani's words, and said seriously:
"Not to mention the Thorn Clan, even if they go to the Plantagenet Kingdom to serve that short man Loren who always wants to kill me, I will not frown.
I thank you for giving my warriors new choices for their future career paths. This is a rare generosity, Mrs. Shani, but there is one thing I must emphasize to avoid a gap between us in the future.
When we are hostile for some regrettable reason, I will immediately take back the control that belongs to the warriors.
This is a basic condition that cannot be discussed!
If you agree, then we can discuss the next issues in detail."
"I guessed you would say that, so I was thinking about a little question on the way."
Shani crossed her arms, blinked and asked:
"If. I mean if, if I treat your warriors so well that they admire me and are even willing to follow me and betray you, how should you deal with it?"
"No one can treat them better than me. Your question is just sowing discord."
Murphy rolled his eyes, snorted, and said:
"If they think you are more trustworthy than me, it only proves that I am nothing more than a governor. But I think you may be disappointed, because in addition to emotional strategies, I also have coercive means.
So I will give you a proper reminder that you should really be wary of my warriors. If we are unfortunate enough to be hostile one day in the future, they will instantly become a knife stabbing your heart."
"But before that happens, their magical wild power will be used by the Thorn Clan."
Shani didn't care about Murphy's "reminder" at all. She had already made up her mind on the way here, so she asked:
"So, what do I need to pay to have a group of foreign heroes under my command who are not afraid of death?"
"Simple."
Murphy and Tris looked at each other, and the Governor stood up and said:
"One drop of blood is enough!
Of course, not everyone’s blood will do. As vampires, we can read the core and origin of power from blood. Andre’s blood is certainly valuable, but if you make such a request for cooperation from me, then out of ritual For sexual purposes, I feel that obtaining a drop of blood from you will allow my warriors to better understand the mystery of the Thorn Clan."
"You want my blood?"
Shani stepped back warily and said:
"Do you think I will give it to you? What does this thing mean to a vampire?"
"Come on."
Cuisi sarcastically said:
"Do you really think my Murphy will use your blood to cast a curse on you? Shani, put your little thoughts away. If you, a gold-level assassin, can't even resist this curse, then you should have He died hundreds of times.
It’s not like I need your blood essence!
It was just a drop of pure blood from the Thorns Clan that was closest to its ancient origin, and was given to Murphy to analyze the Thorns Clan's power template.
You can watch the entire process!
We still have the Holy Blood Alliance, you naughty fox."
"I'm just not used to giving such precious 'gifts' to other people. After all, my blood only belongs to me."
Shani was still very resistant.
But under Murphy's gaze, she thought repeatedly for a moment before raising her finger, squeezing a drop of blood from her fingertip and suspending it in the air.
The Governor stretched out his hand and stuck the drop of blood between his thumb and forefinger, raised his head and dropped it on his tongue.
As the vampire analyzes the information contained in the blood, when Murphy closes his eyes, the "template collection level" belonging to the Thorn clan in the page of his character Kari's racial template increases rapidly.
What Tris said just now is undoubtedly correct. As the Grand Duke of Thorns, Shani’s blood is the purest thing closest to the origin of the Thorns Clan. With this blood as a link, the power of the Thorns Clan is quickly discovered and presented.
In front of Murphy:
The racial template collection rate reaches 90%!
The player-selectable race, the vampire civilization branch Thorn Clan template, has been unlocked!
The racial talents of the Vampire Thorn Clan are as follows:
1. Blessings of the night:
When in a dark environment, melee and psychic skills will be judged +1, dexterity will be increased by 20%, perception will be increased by 20%, and life, energy, and psychic energy recovery will be accelerated.
In the dark night, you are given the [Midnight Haunting] passive skill.
When members of the Thorn clan remain stationary at night and enter a silent stealth state for 3 seconds, they cannot be locked by sight and the probability of being detected is greatly reduced.
After causing an attack, this state will continue to exist for 3 seconds before the stealth is broken.
2. Curse of the day: abbreviated.
3. Midnight Killer:
Members of the Thorns clan specialize in reconnaissance and assassination. In the stealth state, the critical hit rate of the members of the Thorns clan's first stealth-breaking attack is increased to 500%.
While in stealth state, the movement speed of members of the Thorn Clan is increased by 30%.
In the stealth state, the perception effect of members of the Thorn clan is greatly improved, and the perception range is expanded.
In the stealth state, members of the Thorn clan can perform a series of family secrets, including but not limited to [Shadow Sap], [Garrote], [Deadly Ambush], [Shadow Dance], [Kidney Bleeding], etc.
In the stealth state, the evasion rate of members of the Thorn Clan is greatly increased.
In the stealth state, members of the Thorns Clan can apply [Vendetta Mark] to specific targets. This mark can only be sensed by other Thorns Clan members. The mark can exist for seven days without being dispelled.
4. Night bat inheritance: When a vampire is on the verge of death, it can transform into a swarm of bats by dissipating entities to escape danger. Using this specialty will cause the vampire to obtain the negative effects of [mental stress] and [physical collapse].
This racial specialty will be activated after entering the Black Iron Body level.
5. Gliding: The wings of the Thorn clan are delicate and short, which cannot provide vampires with the ability to actively fly. However, they can complete gliding actions at a suitable height and angle. When performing assassinations from a high altitude, they will be given the effect of "death falling from the sky"
, greatly increasing the assassination success rate.
6. The escapist vampire clan: briefly
7. Descendants of Eternal Sin: Briefly
A series of descriptions of racial talents unfolded in front of Murphy's eyes, but after careful study, it is not difficult to find that the racial template of the Thorn Clan is not much different from that of the Blood Vulture Clan. After all, they are both branches of vampire civilization.
The [Swift Flight] of the Blood Vulture Clan has been replaced by [Midnight Haunter] and [Glide], and [Vampire Touch] has also been changed to [Midnight Killer]. The enhancement of the Blessing of the Night is more focused on dexterity and perception. In addition,
Except, the talents of other races are exactly the same.
This collection of templates makes Murphy very happy.
As a designer, he doesn't even need to do "race balancing". There is an "application" function behind this template with a collection rate of 90%. Once Murphy chooses to apply, all vampire players under his command will have an extra branch.
options.
Of course, if you don't set a task of sufficient weight for this kind of "changing the door" operation, you will be sorry for the drop of blood given by Mrs. Shani.
"How's it going? Is that enough?"
Shani asked with a stinky face, Murphy nodded and said with a smile:
"Please wait up to half a month, and I will open the option for my foreign warriors to join the Thorn Clan, but according to our ancient vampire tradition, this kind of change of clan needs to be heavily taxed.
I will not label them traitors, nor will I send people to hunt them down.
But of the resources and wealth those warriors spent to escape from the Blood Vultures and join the Thorn Clan, I will give one-third to Andre as a reward for him accepting and managing the foreign warriors."
"Very good, the proportion is very appropriate and perfect."
Shani was finally satisfied.
She waved her hand and said:
"It's time for me to go back to the Principality of Thorns. Alas, I originally only wanted to stay here for three days, but I didn't expect that the Holy Blood Festival in Scarlet Castle would be so lively and interesting. This is the first time since I became a vampire that I have not been in my own territory.
Celebrated Holy Blood Day.
The old-fashioned people in the clan will definitely complain about me for this.
But it doesn't matter. I have to thank you two for giving me another precious and happy holiday that can be used as memories in my long vampire life.
So, Murphy, see you in the Dark Mountains!"
"Well, I look forward to seeing you again, Grand Duke of Thorns."
Murphy said goodbye to his friend with a smile. After confirming that Shani had completely left, he looked back at Tris with a strange expression, rubbed his cheek and said:
"I feel that I can no longer use the title 'wife' to describe Shani. No wonder she had such a big reaction when she teased her like this for the first time."
"Um?"
Tris looked at Murphy in surprise.
The Governor touched his lips and savored the taste of the drop of Shani's blood. He whispered:
"Our Grand Duke of Thorns tries to act very social, but in fact, she is still a pure person. Oh my God, she is almost 400 years old, right? How can she be so conservative?"
"Hmph! I feel like there's something in your words."
"Well, you really thought too much this time, Tris."
——
"Ahhhhh, it died again."
In the game group of the forum, the bored Ah Yu shouted in text:
"It's really uncomfortable to be disconnected for three days. If I had known better, I wouldn't have been so impulsive. It's clear that our governor's challenge has been successful."
"Success, can you beat Master Murphy's unreasonable summons?"
In the group, Jushabo, who also liked to mention "quit the Internet for three days", immediately retorted:
"The development team has arranged such buggy skills for Mr. Murphy. It's clear that they didn't want us to win, okay? Ahhhh, what a thief."
"You can't say that to a distinguished governor! As the only star summoner among the players, I must defend my mentor."
Brother Xiaofu touched you and you were poor and immediately typed and responded:
"Summoning astral creatures is the fighting method of the astral summoner. For example, my manticore is my main fighting partner at present. This is the feeling of fighting with the summoner, and it is our fighting style!
If you don't like it, don't play, huh~
In short, it’s not cheating by the development team.”
"The statement is correct, but it is most outrageous that Lord Murphy, a black iron-level person, can summon a star demigod! This is simply a lack of martial ethics."
Brother Cat also joined the discussion and said in a very helpless tone:
"I always thought that Sir Murphy's skill as a summoner was not as good as his swordsmanship. It turns out that I really underestimated our Governor. Alas, little rich brother, when will you have such a cool star?
Where is the world guardian?"
"It's coming, it's coming."
Brother Xiaofu responded:
"I served as an assistant throughout the whole process to assist Mr. Murphy in completing the guardianship contract. I know the whole process. Now I only have to improve my strength and prepare myself. Once I complete the Silver Trial, I can have my own interstellar guardian.
And when the time comes, there will be one more summoning slot, and other creatures can finally be summoned.
Alas, I am an astral summoner, not a 'manticore launcher'. Although I like my smelly treasure very much, it feels a bit monotonous to always fight with it. I have to try other summons occasionally."
"Well, I don't think you should be so optimistic, little rich brother, the professional skill trees of NPCs are all specially designed, and the star guardian contract you signed when you achieved Silver cannot reach the level of Mr. Murphy."
Among the rapidly refreshing messages in the group, Alpha's reply stood out so much that Fa Ge, who had not appeared in the group for a long time, appeared and immediately attracted a lot of people's attention.
"Fa Ge, Fa Ge! Why are you so free today and not dealing with the forum's squeezed posts? You even came here to chat, hey, do you have any inside information?"
Brother Meow Meow, who ran over after smelling the smell, typed and asked:
"I haven't heard your news for a long time. I miss you so much."
"Ha, inside information?"
The administrator Alpha seems to be very happy today. He posted several funny emoticons in the group before saying:
"My assistant Feifei was fishing when she was at work. I found out about peeking at the dramas you posted to the forum, and then deducted her salary. Does this count as inside information?
It's all Xiao Weiming's fault! She actually posted so many dramas on the forum, which made them all distracted when they were at work. If I didn't pay attention, they started to take advantage of it, and now even you Sister Cui started to do it.
It’s time to catch a fish.”
"Alas, why does this have anything to do with me? I'm just sharing what I like."
Xiao Weiming, who was "named and criticized", immediately felt aggrieved:
"And it's not just me uploading it! Brother Bang uploaded a whole set of military histories of the Korean War and the Vietnam War, and Uncle Loyalty and his gang even turned their manufacturing sector into a 'hodgepodge of forbidden knowledge'.
That thing is the kind of thing that will cause you to check the water meter in real life just by looking at it.
Compared to them, I only upload a few popular dramas, which is basically harmless to humans and animals, right?"
"I didn't say what you did was wrong."
Alpha responded:
"Just to complain, I have asked Xiaocui to start rectifying the forum. All kinds of knowledge should be placed in different special areas and passwords should be set for access. Otherwise, those things that are too messy will really affect some players.
Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore.
@Everyone, I will send you a form. Please take the time to fill it out and submit it to me within three days.
This is a collection of opinions on the closed beta phase of "Real World". After we complete the summary and evaluation of player opinions, we will decide whether to open an internal test in the near future."
"What?"
"???"
"Damn it! Who gave me a punch? I guess I haven't even woken up yet, so this is a closed beta?"
"Ahhhh! I thought you were just joking when you said you wanted to launch a public beta! I thought this damn game was going to be in closed beta forever, but after a long time you actually played it for real? This is so sudden, just like every time you update it
It catches people off guard!”
"Are you really going to enter the next stage? No, I have only entered the game for less than a week. Let me play in this version for a while."
"Fuck! I must have woken up. I saw something dirty. No, I have to go to sleep for a while."
"Oh my God, my earth, the version is finally going to be updated, and the novice village is finally coming out. I want to fight the black disaster! I want to kill the jackals! Don't stop me, ah!"
