Chapter 199: 72. Murder!【12/60】_1

(Added 2/5 additional updates for ’Humen Smoke’ brother)

In the unsettling night of Cardman City, Miss Phemys had just put on a very formal set of spiritual energy armor for battle. It was a style of tight-fitting robe, but also had an outer layer of leather armor to protect against physical attacks.

Her usual spiritual energy sword had also been replaced with a more formal Scarlet Ability magic wand, the top of the wand shaped like a night bat with spread wings, making it look both mysterious and dark.

An entire set of scrolls was placed on the battle belt, along with a few bottles of alchemy potions to replace magic attacks.

Such full armor indicated that the young lady was prepared for a fierce fight to death.

Behind her, Lady Adel was also filling her backup Scarlet handgun with specially made alchemical bullets, and her thorny sword had just been temporarily enchanted by the young lady herself.

The slender, sharp sword was wrapped in a subtle heat, causing sustained burn damage when it hit the opponent.

This was a perfectly targeted preparation against creatures like vampires, which are vulnerable to fire and light.

In front of them was the unsettling darkness of night. From this tower, they could gaze at the spiritual energy vortex that was shrinking in the sky over inner Cardman City. By tomorrow, it would have completely disappeared from the physical world.

The premise being, they would have to survive until then.

"Are you sure your warriors can carry out the attack on Jed’s group? Are you sure the witch hunters will cooperate with you? Are you sure Jed won’t discover all this beforehand?"

Miss Phemys asked, leaning on her spiritual energy wand.

Behind her, Murphy was collecting the armor and spiritual energy sword the young lady had just replaced.

Don’t misunderstand.

This wasn’t about collecting so-called "Rich Lolita Original Battle Clothes" as a perverted act.

This was just about preparing rewards for small players after they complete the "Prologue·Mainline" mission in advance. As a mainline NPC, he had to consider these in advance.

The system wouldn’t actively give him these equipment for gifts, he could only figure out how to handle all this by himself. His little players would never guess how humble the "garbage man" the handsome Sir Murphy becomes behind their backs.

Oh, life is hard.

Murphy sighed, throwing the collected items into a spiritual bag specially designed for storing mission rewards.

In the face of the young lady’s anxious questions, he pulled out the Blade of Yi that had just been polished, put it in the scabbard on his waist, and slowly replied:

"I have faith in my warriors. They may be weak but they certainly don’t lack courage and wisdom. They can launch the ambush. They may not be able to annihilate those vampires, but the witch hunters will help them finish the job.

As for cooperation...

I don’t doubt it.

These witch hunters can communicate.

My warriors have visited them twice and proved this. Their chief is a wise man, not a brute who only knows how to hack at people.

There’s no reason for them to refuse such a mutually beneficial matter.

As for whether Jed will have an inkling...

I think your question is somewhat redundant and a waste of time. You don’t really think Jed would trust me, this chicken, with the task of executing you, do you?"

Murphy rolled his eyes and said:

"I’m just his smoke screen, young lady.

Whether or not I can take your head off, doesn’t really matter to Jed. The reason why he pretends to feint is just to buy time for his companions to recover.

A constant supply of fresh blood from the survivor camps is being sent to their location. One night’s time is enough for those vampires, who crawled out of Hell, to recover six-tenths of their fighting strength.

You don’t think, in your genius, that you’re strong enough to confront a personal guard of seven Silver Grade Clan Leaders and reverse kill them, do you?

Jed has been prepared to kill you with his own hands all along.

He wouldn’t trust this task to anyone."

"You know they’re recovering, yet you’re still feeding them the blood of your civilians?"

Miss Phemys looked at Murphy, somewhat angrily,

"Do you also just consider them expendables?"

"Aren’t you stupid?"

Murphy retorted rudely:

"How else would they willingly drink the poisoned blood wine at the last moment? The Daylight Potion may be colorless and tasteless, but don’t underestimate Jed’s vigilance, alright?

They’ll keep sipping delicious blood and immersing themselves in it until the last moment... alas, most of those addictive things are harmful, I must remember this.

Let them drink.

One should at least have a full meal before setting off on the road to the Yellow Springs, shouldn’t they?"

"What about Cui Si?"

Miss Phemys asked again:

"Are you so confident leaving Cui Si to Maxim? His loyalty is a double-edged sword. Jed has raised him for twenty years, aren’t you afraid he’ll turn traitor? You obviously care so much about Cui Si..."

"Do you think Cui Si is easy to deal with? Looks like my respected elder’s useless king disguise is really effective."

Murphy huffed.

Walking to the edge of the tower and looking at the gradually brightening sky, he touched the ancient wall and looked at the ash-covered old city below and said lowly:

"I’ll tell you this. When I found Cui Si in the ruins of the city, there was a star realm beast that she had killed by her side. I don’t know how strong it was, but I think it wouldn’t have a problem eating you.

Cui Si is a Gold Stage Spiritual Overlord, although she lost most of her strength due to your father’s secret attack, she still has the power to protect herself."
