Chapter 132: 131 Cunning Miriam’s Super Evolution Ha, Didn’t Expect It
Chapter 132 131.Cunning Miriam’s Super Evolution. Ha, you didn’t expect it, did you? Sis isn’t going to be a vampire!
“Ugh.”
Murphy, who was presiding over the First Embrace Ceremony, let out a faintly audible cry of pain as he struggled to brace himself to stand still.
This scene was immediately noticed by Mrs. Adele.
The perceptive Blood Descendant immediately stepped forward and used her own body to cover Murphy’s weakness at this moment.
She had had the same experience.
It wasn’t hard for her to guess that Master Murphy had given the same precious blood essence to Maxim’s first embrace, which made Adele sincerely feel her master’s generosity.
“Little fool!”
And Tris, who was sitting on the Bloodstone Throne, also clasped the armrests of the throne at this moment.
As an ancient person who was almost five hundred years old, plus an “industry veteran” who had been making money from “first embrace” for the past one hundred years, of course, Tris knew what Murphy was doing at this time.
“I know he’s loyal to you, but as a vampire how can you be so generous! What a dumbass.”
Mrs. Tris cursed in a low voice.
This was overheard by Miriam who was sitting next to her, the redhead didn’t understand the twist and she couldn’t help but ask in a whisper:
“Did Murphy give Maxim awesome powers?”
“Awesome?”
Tris glanced at the cutie as she replied with onomatopoeic skill:
“It’s no longer a question of awesome, he gave Maxim half of his blood, and if I’m not mistaken, he’s done the same thing before, giving a third of his blood to Adele.
Granted, it’s only blood and not essence, but it means he’s weakening his own talent and potential to help his heir get more Midnight Blessings.
This would allow Adele and Maxim to grow in potential and speed far beyond that of a normal vampire.
However, I’ve never met such a generous vampire honoree!
Little girl, would you like to think about it again?
You see how kind my little Murphy is to you, you are truly blessed in your past life to meet such an honorable elder.”
Miriam shook her head vigorously.
She was not going to be a vampire.
Although it was true that she was now working for a vampire, and might even have to become a vassal of a vampire lord, but this was a completely different concept from actually becoming a vampire!
Murphy’s character card on this side at this time was also constantly pulsing with the text prompts when the bloodline contract was concluded.
This time, the prompts were a bit more exaggerated than Adele’s that time:
[Select Elite Template Inheritance!
The heir, ‘Maxim Sena Vlad Le Sombra’, will gain full vampiric traits and 200% of his racial Initial Value, as well as equip his skills with different enhancements, and randomly select three of the talents and specialties you currently possess to inherit!
This option will consume an additional 50% of your blood, causing you to enter a state of ‘Deep Weakness’! It takes 72 hours to recover from this state, during which time your full attributes are reduced by 50%, and your life and psychic energy recovery speeds return to zero.
Child Inheritance Ability Extraction in progress.
I. Inherited Ability: Racial Talent Enhancement Branch – Swift Scarlet Wings
II. Inherited ability: Night Bat Swiftness.
Three. Inherited ability: Hidden Talent Strengthening Branch – Night Claws
Hints!
Due to the selection of the Elite Template Inheritance, the heir’s biometric trait ‘Bloodwing’ has been shaped immediately!
As these words pulsed, Murphy felt himself falling into an incomparably weak situation.
This was much more tiring than the last time he gave Adele his first embrace, as if his entire body had been emptied out, and as a vampire under the Midnight Blessing there was actually a feeling of dizziness and lightheadedness.
But then, the “First Embrace Tax” from the heir arrived immediately:
[The first embrace is complete!
Maxim Sena Vlad Le Sombra has returned some of his power to you in the process, which is manifested in the form of:
+1 Strength, +1 Endurance, +1 Dexterity.
New Talent [Monster – Intimidating Fierce Look] acquired, with a chance to apply a [Fear] effect to enemies upon entering combat.
New talent [Monster – Strong Physique] acquired, life value limit increased by 10%, life and energy recovery speed increased].
This point of power return satisfied the weak Murphy’s heart.
The talent was all secondary, the three points of attributes gifted by Maxim managed to bring Murphy’s attribute total at this point to a staggering 104 points.
What kind of concept was this?
The attribute total of an ordinary vampire of the elite template at the silver rank, without calculating the heir feedback, was exactly 104 points.
This meant that Murphy, at the Black Iron rank, already possessed a base power that could be comparable to the transcendent creatures of higher ranks, or that, in the future, this overstep battle would only be a fair duel for Murphy alright!
“Hold me up.”
Murphy whispered to Mrs. Adele who was covering his weak posture.
The latter immediately assisted the frail Lord Earl so that he wouldn’t have to take an undignified dog fall while his warriors watched.
And after he had taken a few steps back, Maxim, who was half-kneeling on the ground, opened his eyes, a scarlet light lighting them while bloodthirsty canines manifested and retracted beneath his lips.
As Maxim rose to his feet, a pair of massive blood wings that were eerily similar to Murphy’s wings flapped and unfurled behind his heavy armor.
The sharp gusts of wind blowing caused the small players on the second floor to cover their eyes as they were caught off guard, but there were also some who shouted obscenities about how cool it was in my day.
No way.
The scene was indeed cool!
Although Lord Murphy was also handsome when he opened his wings and flew, Murphy’s handsomeness stemmed from his outstanding face and decent temperament, strolling like a nobleman under the moon, which made people’s hearts feel good.
And Maxim’s handsomeness at this moment was the handsomeness of strength!
It was the beauty that belonged to intensity!
The fully armed monster swordsman was like a walking mountain of armor, already hideous and domineering now with the accompaniment of wide blood wings, plus hands like scimitar beast claws, and natural spirit patterns embellished with dark claws extending to the calves, making him look full of a replica of BOSS level monsters should have a sense of oppression.
Not to give him a five-player book finale BOSS or group book old one’s identity are sorry for this body of his brawny appearance posture.
Immersed in the blessings of the Midnight Power, Maxim quickly calmed his mind.
He got the truth from the power that kept pouring out of his body, and then when he looked up to see Master Murphy being supported by Adele with a pale face, a wave of indescribable guilt and touching feelings surged to his heart.
“Master Murphy, I…”
“There’s no need to say more, this is a reward for the loyal.”
Murphy waved his hand, signaling that Maxim could step back for now.
The drama that belonged to him tonight was over for now.
“Pah.”
Seeing that Murphy was working so hard, a wave of pain welled up in her heart Madame Tris lifted her hand to cast a spell, and in imitation of Lord Paranor’s use of psychic energy let the psychic energy fly in black and red rose petals to shape a scarlet bench for Murphy.
Allowing him to continue with his prepared session in tonight’s ceremony.
Lady Adele was kind enough to hand Murphy a cup of crimson blood, which the Vampire Lord took and drank, allowing himself to regain some of his energy before sitting down in the chair and re-positioning himself against the demonic blade of desire in his hand.
Maxim, on the other hand, stood at his master’s side as a matter of course, fulfilling his duty of defense as a Bloodborn.
Murphy slowed down and said:
“Bella Bernice Adele Le Sombra, come forward!”
Mrs. Adele froze.
Then she straightened her low-cut dress Blood Priestess costume that attracted the eyes of all players regardless of gender and stepped forward and half-kneeled in front of Murphy’s eyes.
As Maxim’s ritual just now, as the magic blade lightly tapped on Lady Adele’s snow-white shoulders, he asked:
“I ask you, Adele, are you willing to follow Murphy’s cause and with your own hands, open up a new future for dark and closed Transylvania?”
Mrs. Adele had expected to hesitate.
After all, she and Missy had an extraordinary relationship, and with the witnessed oath of allegiance being inquired about before her, it was only right that she should hesitate for a few seconds to make a choice between Master Murphy and Missy Phemis.
However, it was her own fault for overthinking.
Upon hearing Murphy’s inquiry, her heart, which was now beating only for Murphy, gave its answer in an instant.
“I do, it’s my honor, my only master.” The response was so crisp and clean that it shocked Adele herself, and then a wave of helplessness welled up.
It seemed that her mind was already completely in the shape of Master Murphy’s, and perhaps in the future even this pure and seductive body would be
Ah, this damned bloodline contract!
What an abomination.
But in reality, there’s nothing wrong with it, after all, Missy’s situation is really bad.
Even if Adele wanted to pledge her allegiance, there was really no way.
And the gesture of this E-san, who was quite popular among the players, saying the word “master” in a gentle and natural tone caused the small players on the second floor to stir for a while.
A few Rhodium Cesium Beryllium who had been brushing up on Mrs. Adele’s favorability immediately cried out in the crowd.
Shit!
Shouldn’t it be so real?
The paper man goddess you worked so hard to lick turned out to already be the slave of another paper man ah!
The game experience sucks!
Poorly rated!
Give me a hard bad review mouthful of teeth!
“Very good.”
Mrs. Adele’s reply caused Murphy to nod, and then the blade of his sword lifted to nudge her on the other side of her shoulder and
He said in a slightly muffled, hushed voice:
“Then by the power vested in me by His Excellency Grand Duke Tris of the Blood Vulture, I hereby declare that from this day forward, Bella Bernice Adele Le Sombra will be the Psionic Master of the Psionic Shadows under the command of Count Cadman! I shall bestow upon you the title and power of ‘Baroness of Psi’.
My warriors will witness this, and my warriors will remember this!”
“Thank you for this bestowal, my lord.”
Lady Adele rippled at this.
After all, Lord Murphy had asked her about it before tonight, and as she herself had said she didn’t really care much about power or anything.
After Lady Adele got up, Miss Miriam, who was sitting next to Lady Tris, also sighed in relief.
She felt that the ceremony should be over here, and as a result, she was about to move her neck, which was a little sore from sitting upright, when Murphy in front of her spoke again.
“Miriam, come forward!”
“Huh?”
Miss Miriam froze in place.
Huh?
How is this still about me?
Hey, don’t arrange this weird plot, okay?
I told you I’m not becoming a vampire!
You asshole!
“The First Embrace Ceremony is over, it’s not for you to become a vampire, cutie.”
Tris seemed to see Miriam’s nervousness and whispered in her ear:
“It’s just giving you official titles and powers under the watchful eyes of the Otherworldly Warriors, the only way to keep your official position in the Transylvania region in name only. Don’t you think the title ‘Survivor Camp Supervisor’ is too casual?”
“Ow.”
Miriam understood.
She straightened her long skirt and walked towards Murphy, only to have a lightning bolt suddenly flash through her mind when she was just standing in front of Murphy’s eyes.
Nope!
There was something wrong with this!
According to the powers and titles that Murphy had just given to Maxim and Adele, if he went up and was given the same title and status, wouldn’t that mean that he was truly going to be permanently bound to Murphy, the vampire lord?
If it really develops that way, no one would definitely believe him when he goes out in the future and tells other people that he is not a vampire worshipper!
He would be walking between continents with the identity of a “vampire slave”.
How can this be?
“I ask you, Miriam, are you willing to follow Murphy’s cause and use your own hands to open up a new future for dark and closed Transylvania?”
Murphy’s inquiry rang in her ears.
It was like a death wish that made the redhead clench her fists, and she, who had hated vampires since she was a little girl, was about to reject it right away, but then another thought surfaced like another badass villain in her mind that was always hiding, scratching her head and saying:
Don’t be in such a hurry to say no yet! Teenage girl.
Think of what you would get if you agreed.
A baroness’s title!
A fiefdom of your own!
And real power!
Since Murphy had so solemnly placed himself in this ceremony in front of his most valued otherworldly warriors, he was clearly announcing that she would be taking over the real vicarious administration in the Earl of Cadman’s domain!
From now on, one is the spokesperson of His Excellency Murphy, the Earl of Cadman!
Ah, my long-dead mother!
The chance to move up the ladder that you’ve wanted for half your life could be right in front of your daughter’s eyes, and it won’t even require me to sell my beauty, my body, and my dignity to serve an old, stupid man.
All I have to do is work hard.
That’s the kind of thing that doesn’t even happen in a third-rate knight-errant novel!
It’s like being in a dream.
Her clever little brain was engaged in a fierce celestial battle here, so intense that Murphy barely needed to use his Desire Sense to listen to Miriam’s inner turmoil.
So the wily vampire coughed and added his voice:
“Miriam! I am waiting for your answer, because of your merits in collecting and managing the survivors during this period of time and adding to the revival of the Blood Vulture Clan, I have decided to grant you the title and territory of ‘Baroness of Moorland’.
And in the presence of my vassals and warriors, I will officially grant you the authority of ‘Scarlet Consul’.
The city needs to be rebuilt, Count Cadman’s domain is in need of revitalization, the newborn Blood Vulture Clan and all of Transylvania are looking forward to new changes, and the power to decide on all of this will soon be placed in your hands.
You are so good, loyal and brilliant that you do not have to be a member of the Midnight Familiars to share the power in our hands.
So answer my question, Miriam!
Are you willing to follow Murphy’s cause and use your own hands to open up a new future for dark and closed Transylvania, for a homeland that you loathe but still has the potential to change?”
“I I…”
Miriam was rendered nearly incapable of thinking by the question and the undisguised temptation in it.
No matter how smart and excellent she was, she was still just an undeclared student, and what Murphy had given her had completely exceeded her original plans for her life.
She really wanted to berate Murphy and tell the damn vampire to stop tempting her with these extraneous things!
She really wanted to do that!
Unable to do so, Murphy was giving just a little too much
She was resisting with difficulty.
The righteous villain in her mind was being held down by the evil villain and whacked until she had no power to fight back, and her trembling legs wouldn’t even listen to the hissing in her mind as they just went down on one knee in a smooth, unbelievable manner.
“Very well.”
Murphy nodded.
And from the observation deck above the second floor, Brother Woo Meow rubbed his chin and said to Happy Stick beside him:
“Look at that! What does it mean to say that the Master of Cake’s words have not even begun, but in the mouth of our NPCs, they have turned into the glory and power that can be gained, worthy of being a vampire who calls himself the Descendant of Desire. This aspect of manipulating people’s hearts is really excellent.”
“Bullshit!”
Happy Stick scoffed at Brother Woo Meow’s statement as he asked rhetorically:
“Not to mention the career-minded Ms. Miriam, it’s you, if you were in her scenario and faced with this series of temptations given by Lord Murphy, you’d never follow?”
“Oh, I naturally”
“The guy who is pinching the chain of hidden errand tasks in his hand shut up, have the ability to give up the tasks before talking hard?”
“Ch, I’m just saying, you really make me look like a nerd.”
