Chapter 432, 431. otherworldly failure of Mann!

The city of Berne, the capital of the region of Kavkhoka, when it was still part of the Confederacy of Portia, this ancient city was the eastern capital of that extinct country.

It was not known for its commerce, but rather was very much in line with the characteristics of the Kavhoka region, and it was the center of the most important grain distribution and trading on the entire continent, with a large amount of grain being shipped from here to the various regions of the continent every month.

Even when the Ten Years’ War reached its most difficult moment, the grain trade in Bernie City was never interrupted.

After all, before the Yankees sent out their troops, this place was the backbone of support for the war.

Many important figures of the Bohemian Confederacy had taken refuge here, however, the sudden backstabbing of the Kingdom of Nordstorf into the war caused the order here to suffer a certain degree of blow, and the impact of this blow on the traditional local trade has not completely dissipated to this day.

When the Winter Wolves had just taken over the city of Berne, the grain trade here was once completely suspended, but just before the expiration date of the grain piled up in the warehouses, a “good samaritan” jumped in to help Her Highness solve all of her troubles.

That kind man was Murphy.

Nowadays, a large amount of food from the city of Bernie is being shipped to Transylvania twice a week as part of the “Relief Agreement” between the Transylvanian Governor’s District and the Nordoff officials.

Thanks to this large-scale trade, the traditional trade in the city of Bernie has regained its vitality, and now this place is far from its most prosperous time, but for the small players who have come here from Transylvania to “see the world”, this place is already too much better than Transylvania, which was in shambles.

“Wow, walking around the city reminds me of my trip to Budapest last year.”

On the streets of Bernie City, Star Soul Eagle, who was wearing a hood to conceal his identity and holding a large pile of ingredients that he had picked up, said to Cat, who was walking with a sword on his back beside him and was vigilantly observing the surrounding area:
“Whether it’s the humanities or the environment, even the style of the buildings are very similar ah, this must be a city designed by the development team based on the style of the Eastern European region. And they didn’t copy the real city.

Because this city’s need to transit food made the streets in the city wide and straight, even the alleys are a bit wider than other cities.

But the design of the whole city is quite simple, it is divided into residential and trade areas, I heard that the road outside the city extends all the way to the docks on the upper reaches of the Cadman River, and a large portion of the grain sent to Transylvania has to take this waterway.

If we’re not in a hurry, we can actually go back and walk the waterway to see the scenery along the way.

Although this place is definitely not comparable to the size and development of a modern city, if you take a medieval setting, this is definitely a superb city.

I guess Cadman City didn’t manage to reach this level when it was at its most prosperous.”

“That’s natural, I’ve read some books in the Scarlet Fortress that documented the local scenery, and during the era of the Portia Confederacy, this city shouldered the entire country’s food transit on its own.

It was the fact that it sat atop the resources of the rich Kavhoka region that made it the heart of the Portia Confederacy, and the city of Sicko was certainly the brain of that corrupt giant. As for the city of Cadman . It’s probably the fart that once hid the filth of the Portia Confederacy’s
Well, rectum, I guess.”

Cat’s eyes had been patrolling the area where people were coming and going on both sides of the street, and as he watched the vendors set up to sell their wares and the not-so-many people haggling over prices, he whispered to Star Soulhawk, who was curious about everything he was looking at:

“Don’t look back, we’re being followed, the three guys behind us have been following us for two blocks, they’re alternating between following, but I can feel them.”

“Hmm?”

Star Soul Eagle was immediately alert.

Although he had just entered the game not long ago, his quality as a professional athlete was unquestionable, and after a few breaths he got himself into a state of readiness, and he asked as he continued forward:
“Which way?”

“How should I know, it’s my first time here too.”

Cat said shaking his head:
“But I guess it should be the Snegov family, they are the biggest local land snake aren’t they? It’s not unusual for us outsiders to be noticed when we enter here, it seems like the Snegov family really does have a problem!

These guys probably already know that the ugly things they did in Transylvania were exposed, this will already be a bit of a hard wall, I just don’t know how the Thieves Guild situated in the city will react to this?”

“The situation shouldn’t be that bad.”

Star Soul Eagle said with a frown:
“If the local Thieves Guild has indeed been completely corrupted, then we’ll be in for an assassination or attack when we enter the city of Berne. Didn’t they say that the Thorn Clan had already issued a questioning request to them?”

Cat didn’t answer.

He just signaled with his eyes for Star Soul Eagle to speed up, there were two more people following behind him, and it was hard to tell if the two of them would be attacked on the streets if they continued to roam.

Although he wasn’t afraid himself, Star Soul Eagle hadn’t yet passed the Black Iron Trial, and he obviously couldn’t deal with high-intensity battles.

The two of them quickened their pace and eventually arrived at the headquarters of the Thorn Clan’s mansion in Bernie City before the stalkers closed in, and the moment they stepped into the very old tower-like building, Cat looked back.

The stalkers behind him had already disappeared.

Apparently, they didn’t intend to offend the majesty of the Thorn Clan.

“The Thorn Clan is coming.”

As soon as Cat returned to the resting place on the third floor of the mansion that was specially reserved for them he saw the bald vampire martial monk, the kind-eyed Giant Sharkbear leaning against the side of the corridor, squeezing his eyebrows and saying to him:

“Archduchess Shani has personally come, and has brought along a number of guys who are quite formidable when distinguished by their aura, it seems that Lord Murphy has put a lot of pressure on this lady. She’s planning to make a big wave here.”

“Uh, why are you so happy that she’s here?”

Cat was a bit unable to understand Giant Sharkbear’s joy, and then he saw the flirty and epileptic vampire martial monk flinging a delicate Nightwalker flying dagger from between his fingers with an enraptured and smug look on his face.

He said:

“Because Archduke Shani still knows me! She said that I’m a memorable vampire, and she even remembers that she sent me a quest when she was in Scarlet Castle before. See, this knife is the extra prestige reward that Madame Shani gave me!
What about a fine-grade throwing weapon? As expected of a Vampire Archduke, she’s so generous with her random handouts.

Tsk tsk, I, Giant Shark, am really a genius, to be able to make a gold powerhouse remember me, hehehe, this is too great.”

“Emmmm.”

Facing the self-absorbed Uncle Giant Shark, Cat didn’t know whether to break his bad fantasy or not.

This talented swordsman stared at Giant Shark Bo’s inch-long big bald head with odd eyes as he viciously spat in his heart:
“Hey! You’re probably the only bald vampire oddball in the entire vampire race! If Mrs. Shani can’t remember such an obvious feature, she’ll have to go to a vampire doctor to have her brain or eyes looked at ow.”

Just as Cat spat in his mind, the door to the room opposite the two was pushed open.

As the Shadow Trail Faction’s executive leader for this trip, Lord Turner of the Iron Fist stepped out of it with a face as heavy as water.

He spoke to Cat and Giant Shark Bo in a serious tone:

“Immediately gather the Shadow Trail martial monks! We’re heading to the Snegov Family’s headquarters, Grand Duke Shani has brought definite news that that mafia family is preparing to flee Kavhoka. We will capture them and bring them back to Transylvania for interrogation.”

“We were just followed on our way out, Master Turner.”

Cat reported immediately:
“The Snegov family has noticed us, the secret infiltration has failed, and I’m afraid that if we move at this time, we’ll have to adopt a strong attack strategy. However, according to those grave robbers earlier, the Snegov family obviously has ties with the local thieves guild.

Forcing an attack on someone else’s territory is really the next best thing.”

“You don’t have to worry about the Thieves Guild side.”

Turner moved the Wolfsbane Fist Blade in his hand as he shook his head:
“Archduke Shani will personally be responsible for the suppression and cleanup of the local Thieves Guild, and she promised me that after this matter is over, she will personally go to the Scarlet Fortress to explain the relationship to Archduke Tris and Lord Murphy.

But the Snegov family is the trouble we have to deal with.

Archduke Shani has made it clear that she and her clan will not intervene in this matter, saying that if the titular Murphy’s Warrior can’t even deal with a gray-area gangster family, she’d be very skeptical of the Transylvanian’s vaunted self-importance of strength and courage.”

“Ha! How can a venerable vampire lady look down on us like that?”

Giant Sharkbear’s furious fists slammed against his chest as he shouted epileptically:
“Let’s blood-wash that hideout today and bring a little ‘Transylvanian Shock’ to the locals! Master Turner, lead us in a charge for once!” “You’re a vampire, Giant Shark, so please curb that berserker aura of yours that is grossly at odds with your race and profession.”

Turner sighed:
“You can’t move under the sunlight, so you take the sewers, the local vampires provided us with a dark passage from the sewers into the basement of the Snegov family castle.”

“Huh?”

Discouraged as if he’d been knocked on the head, the warlike giant Sharkbot sputtered as he rubbed his large bald head:
“I hate the sewer and everything associated with it . Can you send someone with me?”

“?”

Cat was surprised to see the Giant Shark Bo, who had always shown himself as a “fierce man”, and before he could ask him a question, Giant Shark Bo twisted his head around, squirming and embarrassed, and whispered:
“That, in advance, I am not afraid of the dark, I just how to say? Not very used to walking alone in the dark.”

“Fuck!”

Now Cat couldn’t hold it together.

He covered his eyes and said:
“Why did you pick a vampire if you have this problem? This pairing of character traits and racial specialties of yours is a bit too extreme, isn’t it?”
—
Although the mode of action had changed from sneak attack to strong attack, it actually wouldn’t affect the Shadow Tracker Faction members’ anticipation and preparation for the initial battle.

Even though Niu Niu was unable to come over because she accompanied Ambrosia on her scouting trip to the Filthy Swamp, the two most capable young martial arts monks in the Shadow Tracker Faction still performed their duties perfectly. In the mid-afternoon, Sister Pomegranate and Cat sneaked through the patio from above the Snegov family’s fortress and opened up the inner chamber to kill the members of the gangster family therein.

This directly announced the beginning of the strong attack.

The Snegov family’s power in the local area could not be affected by the fact that they were just underground gangsters, and despite their wealth, it was quite difficult to recruit enough good men.

Especially after the North Brother took over the city of Bernie, leading to a serious decline in the power of the Snegov family, some of the family’s powerful guys have already made their own way.

As a result, as the vanguard of Sister Pomegranate and Cat need to face only some armed bandits, these guys bully a little bit of civilians is okay, really encountered in the jackals “mountain of blood” killed out of the elite martial arts monks will only be left to be slaughtered.

At the same time when the two slipped into the fortress one by one to attract attention, the remaining people led by Turner drove a carriage and rammed through the obstacles in front of the fortress, and in the explosives lit in the carriage collided with the gate to cause explosions and burning chaos from the front rushed in.

The heavy gate that fell in front of the fortress was blown open by Turner’s blast with a punch of gathered qi, and in the midst of the bricks and wood flying, Mr. Wrist Howe Lee and Master Beef Bowl Yang also rushed in.

These two men used their battle techniques to charge forward and kill the bandits of the Snegov family, which was almost equal to a downward strike.

Only to see Master Yang holding two swords from the main gate of the fortress all the way to the internal tower, along the way is the hand up and down to the hand up and down, in the martial arts monks of the qi under the auspices of the sword, every sword down are powerful and heavy, so that he rushed to cut down the generals completely without a single enemy.

Followed together with the run over the music A Rin along the way even a head have not been able to snatch from the hands of the two masters, so that he called the game experience is extremely poor.

From this, it could be seen that although the Shadow Trail Faction was currently extremely small in number in the player’s guild, the combat power of their organization was really high.

Of course this also side-stepped the fact that Archduke Shani’s contempt for the Snegov family was not empty.

That Archduke Thorn must have known that there was no threat in this fortress, so she let the “guests” from Transylvania do their work.

“Teacher Li! Quickly come to the left side of the fortress, there’s a prison over here!”

Just as the frontal breakers were preparing to kill their way into the inner towers with a bang, Sister Pomegranate’s transmission rang out on the crowd’s side, and she said in a deep voice:

“These bastards have imprisoned a lot of people here, and I saw certain strange symbols carved into their bodies that should be related to the evil psychic energy rituals. All of these people were plundered by the Snegovs from all over the city and suburbs, they can’t say what happened to them, but it’s safe to assume that the godfather of the Snegovs is hiding something in the fortress!

They were part of some ongoing ritual.

You guys don’t go in there yet!

Don’t ever go in there!”

Sister Garnet’s reminder came at just the right time, but Turner’s face changed drastically when he learned of this, and he exclaimed:

“Not good! Giant Shark and Star Soul will enter the tower directly from the sewers, quickly let them out!”

“Giant Shark? Roger that answer!”

Cat immediately contacted Epileptic Giant Shark, but waited for several seconds before hearing the other party reply saying:

“We’ve already broken through the basement and entered the tower, we’ve already taken out many little punks who dared to block the way, and Star Soul and I have teamed up to cut down many of them. Hahahahaha, I knew I was an absolute genius!

Where are you guys?

Why haven’t you come in yet?
We’re ready to rush in and take the Godfather of the Snegovs alive. Ha, he’s right in front. I can hear him screaming in agony from fear!
That’s right.

That’s it!

Tremble and wail in fear from the unrivaled power of Lord Giant Shark, and then die!”

Giant Sharkbur had clearly gone mad with killing.

Probably because the vampire’s trait of being attracted to blood caused him to enter a state of “blood thirst”, which would make it difficult for him to correctly receive the instructions from Cat due to the confusion on the mental level.

Cat had no choice but to ask the Star Soul Eagle to withdraw immediately, but the very next second after the order was given, the screams of the Giant Shark Bo echoed in the team frame:

“Blanch! How did this old man transform in two? He’s turned into Failed Man! Crap what kind of evil feats are these? Brothers retreat quickly! We seem to have encountered something extraordinary. Ah!”

“Bang.”

A loud bang erupted from high up in the tower in front of the crowd, and as glass and masonry burst and cracked, the screaming Giant Sharkbear whirled around and was thrown down from the heights.

His bloody wings had been torn to shreds, and there was absolutely no way for him to maintain his stance in the air, so all he could do was scream and flail his limbs in an attempt to grab hold of the non-existent ropes.

This situation would be hopeless in normal times.

The fall damage alone would have been enough to kill the giant shark, but Lord Turner used his dexterous footwork to stomp on the wall a few times before crossing into the air, lifting the severely injured giant shark Bur in one hand, and with the other hand, he gathered his Martial Monk’s qi and punched forward, knocking back the blood blades swung by the monster that had rushed out of the shattered masonry.

The two of them tumbled to the ground in the air with the force of the impact, and the terrible tearing wounds on the giant shark’s body gave everyone present a fright.

They then saw the walls of the tower in front of them being torn apart once more, followed by a half-human, half-spider monster holding a skeletal giant sword rapidly climbing down the wall.

This thing was very creepy.

The lower half of its body had completely transformed into the body of a large spider in the splattering of plasma, while the upper half of its body still maintained the dying and decaying posture of the godfather of the Snegov family.

Its height reached more than three meters at the same time the rapid movement of the sharp spider legs wherever they go will bring a rather terrible corrosive breath, and its humanoid upper body behind the back is also as long as the growth of bone wings like a twisted mouthpiece limbs and joints in the neurotic twitching, towards the bottom of the constantly spewing out dark green venom and poisonous smoke.

In this monster’s naked chest is also full of open and closed eyeballs, those eyeballs constantly rotating and then stared at everyone present, this process looks unusually twisted and dirty.

Turner’s brow wrinkled into a “Chuan” character when he saw this thing clearly.

Moving his arms in place, he began to call upon the power of the God of the North Wind, and as layers of frost splattered and reverberated, he spoke to the others:

“This is an arachnid . Evil creatures from the Dark World and the Shadow Elves! Stand back! You can’t deal with it yet, but I probably know where the source of the Thieves’ Guild’s contamination is coming from, and the Shadow Elves of the Eternal Rift are undoubtedly involved in Twilight-related matters.

Alas, I’m really not the least bit surprised by that answer.”
