Chapter 681 680. The ominous wind is blowing, look, the storm is gathering - more updates [1010]
The night passed quickly.
Because Murphy had to enter the biological chamber to detoxify every few hours, he could not accompany Tris, who was so tired that she fell asleep at midnight, until dawn.
However, physical fatigue could not conceal a certain joy in his heart. When Murphy stood up to pick up clothes from the ground, he looked back at the Grand Duke on the bed.
The other person's back was facing him, and his smooth back was full of the beauty of a work of art.
Murphy stretched out his hand and touched the skin without lust. He gently stroked downwards from the scar on Tris's neck. This action made Tris grunt in her sleep, but it did not stop him.
Both of them knew what this scar that didn't want to be erased meant.
It was once a line that separated the two people, but now that line has been crossed, the two truly have each other, and the painful past represented by this scar has also weakened, but of course it will not disappear.
Until Luna is truly dealt with, Tris and Murphy cannot relax and enjoy their new life.
Murphy shook his head, pulled the quilt over to cover Tris, then coughed and shook off the astral guide stick form of the Vientiane Device and left the bedroom, heading to the biology room to detoxify.
When he took the elevator down to the ground, he happened to see Maxim climbing out of the biological cabin.
The monster's weakness had been completely eliminated, and when Murphy saw him, the blood connection that once existed between the two was gone, and they were like two strangers.
This made Maxim very uncomfortable.
He was wearing a bath towel and hesitated to speak.
"How does it feel to be free? Mark."
Murphy took the initiative to speak.
"It sucks! I seem to have lost the focus and purpose of my life. You know, I'm just a freak who needs to obey others in order to unleash all my power. And I've been given freedom that I never needed!"
Maxim complained:
"I used to know how to go, and I never lost my way before. You were the beacon guiding me forward, but now, I seem to get lost at any time.
This feeling is so bad.
I don’t know how other people deal with it, but it’s not really a blessing for me.”
"This feeling is called being normal, Mark. You were too twisted before."
Murphy adjusted the thirty-minute automatic wake-up program on the control panel of the biological cabin. He turned back to Maxim and said:
"But you see, losing the constraints of the blood contract will not make you suddenly change from a loyalist to a traitor. You just feel lost but not really lost. You actually know where you should go, so what happens next
The question is whether you want to keep going.
Go back and think about it, Mark.
Loyalty should be pure and not be influenced by the heart and finally surrender at the feet of someone, willing to become a hound.
I was moved by your loyalty in the past, but I also have my responsibilities as a leader, and protecting your souls and minds is one of them.
Be more open.
From now on, you will be free to choose where to spread your passion, and the relationship between you and Leonia can finally move forward without restraint."
"Maybe, but the price is too heavy for me. Alas, I am no longer qualified to ridicule Adele's weakness, because I have also become one of the weak.
This feels so bad."
Maxim lowered his head, obviously troubled, so Murphy suggested:
"Before returning to the Black Flame Pass, you can go to the Shadow Valley to find a guy named 'Crow'. He is currently the most advanced foreigner in thinking and philosophical research. Maybe he can give you some advice.
It's time for you to go, Mark.
During the period when I am unable to go to the front line, you will have to perform my duties on my behalf."
"I will not let you down, Master."
Mark said in a deep voice:
"I will definitely bring you victory."
"Victory is inevitable, but the process is doomed to twists and turns. Adele is checking the Black Flame Pass to see if there are any dangers that we have overlooked. Do you remember the plans I told you before?"
Murphy, wearing a Farstrider tights, lay in the biopod and said to Maxim:
"After returning this time, be prepared for a major retreat. The possibility of the worst-case scenario happening is greatly increasing. At that time, it is your turn to turn the tide. Remember to bring Leonia with you and let her assist.
I think that after this battle is over, Lord Paying would be too stingy if he still does not give the meritorious Leonia a jar of source blood."
"You are really worried about my matter, but in fact you don't have to get involved at all. This is my private matter after all."
Mark sighed and said:
"Leenia now feels that all of this was arranged by you. I don't want her to have similar thoughts, but your thoughtful planning makes me unable to refute."
"Don't be like this. I am destined to be unable to have pure love. I just want to have a sense of participation in your pure love."
Murphy smiled subtly, stretched out his hand to say goodbye, and then was wrapped in transparent liquid in the biological cabin and entered hibernation.
After he fell asleep, Maxim walked to the closed biological cabin.
He looked at the handsome vampire lord among them.
A few seconds later, he half-knelt in front of the biological cabin as if he had sworn an oath, and was about to speak when he heard a voice from behind.
"It doesn't have to be like this, Mark. We can all see your loyalty. There is no need to doubt yourself just because of that jar of source blood."
Dressed in a robe, Tris walked into the biology room in high spirits, like an old aunt who had squeezed out her little flesh and was in a very happy mood. The interference from Luna and the Scarlet Witch had already followed a heart-wrenching battle.
The blush and heartbeat disappeared with abandon.
She felt as if she was alive again, even young again. She didn't know if vampires had this evil magic of "harvesting yang and replenishing yin". Although she still had the same charming posture as before, there was something about it.
The loss suddenly made Tris feel more feminine.
Well, maybe this is the change from a girl to a young woman?
As for why he woke up so quickly.
Obviously, she was just pretending to sleep just now to avoid the embarrassment that the two people had to face when they were awake during the "one-night stand". Now, when Murphy has fallen asleep, Tris can finally restore herself to the blood vulture Archduke
in posture.
She looked at Maxim, who was half kneeling there, and said:
"You know, Murphy has never doubted your loyalty, but you are doubting yourself."
"This is different!"
Maxim said stubbornly:
"Please bear witness to the oath I made for my master!
No longer bound by the blood contract, I will use this oath to re-bind and arm my soul.
I am not happy at all that I am free. I know that serving Lord Murphy is the most honorable career I can get in this life.
I still long to share his glory and be the first sharp blade in his hands!"
"Oh, you are a typical dependent personality, your illness cannot be delayed any longer."
Tris sighed and said:
"As I said about you at the beginning, you have entrusted everything to your master long before the blood contract was imposed. It is an honor for little Murphy to have your allegiance."
"The master has given me everything and I must respond."
Maxim recited the oath he made when he joined the Blood Vulture Clan loudly, and Tris watched this scene as a witness, just like a knight swearing allegiance to his lord, or a general swearing an oath to the king.
The moment he stood up, the old Maxim returned.
And this time, his mind was stronger.
"Let's go to war."
Trish said:
"Your soldiers and your cause await."
"Well, please take good care of Master."
Maxim whispered:
"I'm going to kill all those jackals! In this life, everyone related to Dusk will be my eternal enemy, and the evil they do must be responded to! They will definitely taste my anger, and even my blood
The Wrath of the Eagle!"

"Today's divine blessing is a bit strange."
In the Shadow Valley, Hedong Lion Roar, who had just offered ore to the altar of the Mother Goddess of the Earth, said doubtfully to Sichuan West Langxing beside him:
"We received a blessing, but the whispers we always heard when we asked for strength were gone. The earth priests said that it was a sign that Gaia was contacting us. The same thing happened with the blessings of other gods, but today those
The sound disappeared.
How to describe this?
Let me think."
“From human customer service to automated response?”
West Sichuan Langxing, who was carrying a big sword, said something, which made Hedong Lion Roar nod:
"Yes, yes! That's how it feels. Although the blessing effect is the same as before, it always feels like something is missing. Has the Mother Earth lost interest in this place? Has her eyes shifted to other places?"
The discussion between the two of them quickly attracted the attention of an earth priest next to the altar. He hesitated and took the initiative to talk to the two players.
After figuring out how the players felt, the Earth Priest's expression turned even more ugly.
While he was a little uneasy, he drew the prayer gesture of the Mother Goddess on his chest, and said worriedly:
"Your feeling is not wrong. From last night to now, Mother Earth has been very silent. This sudden silence is related to the miracle a few days ago, which is really worrying."
"Your gods are also silent?"
A monk priest from the Wolf of the North Wind passed by here and heard the Earth Priest's speech.
He immediately stopped and said to the priest of Gaia:
"Su Ye has stopped responding to our prayers since last night. It seems that this is no accident! Some things have happened in the kingdom of gods, but we ordinary believers cannot understand it all.
The gods have paid attention to the changes in the Dark Mountains many times. They will not suddenly withdraw at this time. Perhaps we should obtain evidence from other believers. If the gods all become silent at the same time, then we must report to their respective deans.
Such an unusual situation."
The Earth Priest nodded and said seriously:
"I'll contact the Berserker's servants, and you contact the followers of Avalon."
"And the Eastern Spirit and the Spider Lady."
Hedong Lion Roar reminded from the side:
"The only servant of the Eastern Holy Spirit in the Black Flame Pass is Knight Liwen. Ms. Villanse, a disciple of Ms. Spider, is also here. We can take charge of it."
"Then act as soon as possible."
Su's monk urged, and the three waves of people immediately visited the predetermined targets. After everyone put the matter together, they realized that something really seemed to be wrong.
In the process of gathering intelligence, the statement from the giant shark was particularly convincing.
"Boss Vam didn't even whisper in my ears today! Damn, without that wild war cry, I can't even chop down the gnolls smoothly! Ah, if I can't fight in my own BGM,
My passion and desire for domination are completely unsatisfied!"
What he said was somewhat blasphemous.
But from what Jusha said, it seemed that he could hear Wam's "roaring assist" every time the battle got fierce.
This phenomenon is very novel to the believers, but now is not the time to discuss this strange phenomenon, because the belated arrival of the Knight Liwen brought quite bad news.
Her own condition was also very bad.
She was pushed to the altar area in Shadow Valley by Miss Jin Taozi in a wheelchair. The weakness caused by receiving the power of the Astral Dragon has not yet dissipated.
"The shadow of the subspace launched an attack on the Kingdom of the Six Gods almost simultaneously last night. A war in the subspace has begun. Our god and even all other gods are at risk of being involved!"
Knight Liwen wore a blindfold and said weakly but firmly:
"The Holy Spirit of the East, the Wolf of the North Wind, the Mother Earth and Avalon of Nature will not have much of a problem. They have been fighting the shadows of subspace from the moment they became gods, and they do not need to come from matter.
The world’s faith blessing.
But things are not looking good for Wam and Spider-Lady!
They are gods born in faith, and their relationship with believers is much closer than the other four gods.
My god had sent an oracle to me before participating in the battle for the Kingdom of God. He asked me to convey this news to the believers of Wamu and the Spider Lady. During this period, they should not engage in large-scale belief rituals, and all
The dean must have strict requirements and screen his followers.
Once it is confirmed that there are chaotic heresies among believers, they must be eliminated immediately! Otherwise, it will easily lead to turmoil in the Kingdom of God. In the worst case, there may even be a 'corruption of God', just like the current state of the Lord of the Hunt.
This is a serious matter!
You must immediately convey this news to your respective cores of faith."
"It's easy to say that the Berserker's followers are all barbarians, and there are few traces of cultists' activities in the Ice Bay."
The earth priest said worriedly:
"But Ms. Spider's belief is inherently towards darkness and depravity, and she is probably the most easily influenced god."
"Won't!"
Knight Liwen said categorically:
"Avalon will help her.
The relationship between them is very complicated. There is no danger on Ms. Spider's side. In short, let's investigate immediately.
The actions of the subspace shadows are likely to be affected by the material world, and the activities of those subspace cultists are very likely to become rampant recently. You must be prepared to protect your faith."
These words shocked the members of various faith sects around them. At this moment, they truly realized that an era of chaos might really be coming soon.
Who would have thought that the great gods would be the first wave of beings to be affected?
However, since the altar in Shadow Valley can still be used, it means that everything is normal with the gods. If a critical moment comes, these divine powers will definitely be withdrawn.
What's more, it was a battle that took place in subspace, and it was difficult for believers to assist their gods.
This is probably the legendary situation where "it's a big deal, there's no point in rushing".
The discovery of Shadow Valley was quickly spread to Tris. Probably because Tris is the best theologian on the entire continent, Lord Heather specifically asked about the impact of this incident on the Black Disaster.
The response Tris gave was very simple.
"It won't have any impact, don't worry!
This situation has happened before. The believers can still use their divine power, and ordinary faith spells will not be restrained. The only problem is that you can't rely on "asking gods to come down to earth" to help solve the problem when the battle situation is dangerous.
Just like what happened at Fort Courage and Death Mesa will be difficult to repeat in the subsequent war, this means that the defensive pressure on Black Flame Pass will be greatly increased."
Tris stood in the biological room guarding Murphy's biological cabin, talking to him with the blood crystal given to her by Lord Heather.
The latter relaxed after hearing Tris say that it would not affect the battle situation.
It's not that Lord Heather is arrogant, but because it's difficult for that kind of divine spell to really affect the outcome of a war.
The power of gods in the material world has always needed a carrier. As an excellent commander, Lord Heather has never pinned his hope of winning the war on divine magic.
She quickly noticed the scene around Tris and said in confusion:
"You look like you're in a strange place, why? Are you Transians so incapable of keeping secrets?"
"There is no need to keep secrets from you here."
Tris snorted, brushed her long hair, and said:
"Because Lord Paying has reserved a biological cabin here, he will come here soon to dig out some things that interest him, so if you dare to reveal this place, I will definitely not be the one to cause trouble for you."
"Hey, don't use Lord Paying to pressure me. Well, I am indeed afraid of him, but it is not a shameful thing. What vampire is not afraid of him?"
Lord Heather snorted, but then changed the subject and said:
"You look different from before, Tris. I can't tell what has changed, but I always feel that you seem to be very happy. Did you pick up money when you went out?"
"Yes, I picked up a big treasure, the kind that will make me happy for a long, long time."
Tris shrugged and glanced at Murphy who was about to end his dormancy behind him.
She said to Heather:
"I won't tell you anymore, I have something else to do. In addition, Murphy is alive and healthy. He will return to his post soon, so don't worry about your 'backup plan' and just fulfill your responsibilities."
