Chapter 578: 577. What’s wrong with your name? You have to call it “Root”. See, something happened, didn’t it? -Added [1930].

“Swish.”
Scarlet streams of light flashed to form a very vampire-style portal, which opened in the factory of Sulphur Flywheel, and in the next instant, holding a night-whistling staff, her face was full of majesty and even her height was majestically slow, and Miss Fimis walked in.
She was still dressed as a noble psychic, and added a cloak to make herself look even more “majestic”.
Behind her was a group of people with different identities.
There were NPCs and players, but the common feature was that these guys were all Spiritualists.
This is a big action of the “Red Magic Hall” under the command of Missy, and after Murphy issued the call, Phineas immediately gathered his partners and ran to do something big.
“Wow, this place is really something else!”
Missy flapped her wings and levitated, glancing from side to side in this place filled with heat as she said to Murphy who greeted them in front of her:
“When I was in the Knights of the Blood League before, I heard from some of the Sovereigns that the Hungry Mountain hides the evil secrets of the Halflings, and they say that there’s a strange magic formation here that allows you to get all sorts of weapons and materials by sacrificing materials.
I knew then that what those superstitious fellows were describing was a factory built by engineering!
Little Sherron and that strange apprentice of hers would love this place, it’s like a manufacturing paradise of her two dreams.”
“But now that paradise is ours.”
Murphy snapped his fingers and spoke to Phineas:
“Get your psychics moving my dear Missy, we’ll need to spend some time transporting the machines here back to Transylvania, transportation by land is simply not possible considering the Black Plague, so I’ll need you to form a large portal and keep it running until this factory is emptied.”
“Huh?”
Femis blinked as she exclaimed:
“Murphy! Did you take out the legendary Sulk-Flywheel and rob his factory?”
“Of course not, I pierced his copper-filled, insane mind with the deadly sword of friendship, and now Master Thiok Flywheel is a loyal old friend of Transylvania, and in support of our cause, he has voluntarily gifted Transylvania officials with the factory that took him more than forty years to build.
Well, Miriam should give Master Flywheel a big medal of friendship for that.
But those can come later.”
Murphy fished out his broken pocket watch to check the time and said:
“I’ve already talked to the Bear Goblin foremen about the treatment, they’ll help dismantle the machinery and production lines, and you’ll make a trip back to Transylvania to send Thicke Flywheel and his two bodyguards over there, and Tris will receive them, and by the way, have Brother Loyal’s arsenal ready to receive tools, raw materials, and workers right away.
Be kind to our bear goblin technicians, they are guests of honor in Transylvania.
Also, several warehouses below this cave factory are filled with weapons, armor and engineering explosives, send these directly to the Maginot Line to be delivered to Lord Kudel.
I need him to put this valuable materiel to proper use.
The three forks to the left of the factory lead to the vaults of Thicke Flywheel, here are the keys!”
Murphy barked as he placed a key made of obsidian in the hands of the already dumbfounded Femis himself:
“The money there is transported back to the Blood Wyvern Vault, it’s time to breathe a sigh of relief into our poor clan coffers, Trixie will be sure to be happy, and you can have some of the money in there as well, if you need it for your Red Wizards’ Hall.
Consider it my private support of Transylvania’s psionic organization development efforts, perhaps you should give me the title of ‘Honorary Psionic Master’.”
“Murph, and you said you didn’t take out Thicke Flywheel!”
Femis teased:
“To get a halfling warlord to willingly hand over these things, you probably put a sword to his neck to negotiate a partnership, didn’t you? What did you use to convince him to be so generous?”
“Emmmm, probably the future?”
Murphy laughed and reached out to pat the short Missy Femis on the head, saying:
“Get to work, I know it’s exhausting, but you guys need to get it done quickly, there’s not much time left for us.”
“Uh-huh!”
Femis said with a vigorous nod:
“I’ll try to make sure it’s done in fifteen days, what about you? Murph, what are you going to do?”
“There’s a mercenary army of ogres and bear goblins out there.”
Murphy explained:
“I’m going to bring them back to the Valley of the Shadow as part of the defense force there, Maxim will be happy to see an additional powerful army of servants under his command.
The portal in the Valley of Shadows isn’t stable because of the psychic energy environment there, and I don’t want to experience getting lost in the Astral Realm again, and that guy Mannis will surely take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail me, so I’ll have to take them back by land.
By the way, I’ll do a scouting wave near the Black Flame Pass to see where the Jackals’ vanguard has advanced to.
There’s no need to worry about me, I’ll go straight back to Scarlet Fortress after I’ve done this reconnaissance, I have to dictate and confirm a few things, and after that I’ll have to stay at the frontline for a long time.
The Transians won’t want to have a governor who’s afraid to even go to the battlefield, and as a lord I have to be the example of what they want.”
“Alright then, you get busy, I’ll take care of this, it’s just what I’m good at.”
Phimis did a military salute in the air.
Although her short Missy stance really had no majesty to speak of, but appearance did not represent ability, this short vampire in front of her was the psychic commander under Murphy’s command, and she would have to be relied on when they entered the throwing magic at each other part of the battle in the future.
Murphy heard the scarlet witch say when she was alone with Tris before, after Missy entered the silver level, the power potential of the blood seed in her body began to release at a rapid pace, according to Tris’s words, Missy, who possesses part of the “mutated divinity” will definitely cross the gold trial with ease, and the process will be amazingly fast.
In other words, in the future, the Blood Vulture Clan was destined to be supported by the “supernova genius” Phineas.
Giving the job of transferring the factory to Missy, Murphy was quite relieved, and when he left the place and glided along the mountain peaks to the foot of the mountain, the “group of fighters” formed by Sulphur Flywheel was already there, ready to go.
As a violent organization of wild warlords to defend their cause, this group of more than twenty ogres and nearly a hundred bear goblins is called “well-equipped”, the old Flywheel in their own factories to produce heavy and reliable armor for them, but also with manufacturing waste to equip them with weapons.
The ogres were armed with vicious “scrap steel warhammers”, while the bear goblin looters riding on the backs of the loosers had decapitation blades in their hands, as well as a variety of explosive shells and large-caliber muskets for long-range attacks.
As for what a Los Beast is .
Basically, you can think of these creatures as the bison of this world, strong and durable, they were first found by the Shadow Elves in the Darklands, and then domesticated by the Elves to become camelids and their main source of meat.
They were docile, but terrifying when angered, fertile, and most importantly tasty enough that they quickly became the most common creatures in the Dark Mountains region.
Los beasts can also be trained to be carriers for charging cavalry, but they are slow, and aside from being extremely powerful when charging, they can easily be slung by an opponent with their speed when encountering normal cavalry.
But the Bear Goblins’ lanky bodies and the weight of their armor obviously couldn’t ride a horse either, so using this thing was just right.
This group of fighters have been told that the old flywheel will not renew the “labor contract” with them, so after the appearance of the new boss, these guys show quite “enthusiastic”, especially as the ogre governor of the “hungry four brothers The Hungry Four”.
Big strong with a scrap steel helmet is very enthusiastic to invite the new boss to sit on his broad shoulders, it pleases like to Murphy said in a jar:
“Boss Murphy! I’ve heard that you’ll give us meat to last us every day? Is that true?”
“Uh, not necessarily meat, but some other grains and wine as well.”
Murphy was a very reasonable governor, so he called out to the ogres who were striding forward on their packs:
“Once we reach the Valley of the Shadow, you’ll be able to see the grains, the cunning Wolf Woman has given us lots and lots of grains with the aid of her majesty, all the stale grains that are about to expire or have already expired in the city of Bernie and even in the entire region of Kavhokar have been thrown to us, we have to eat those things before they go bad.
My soldiers are desperately trying to eat but there’s no way they can consume that much stale grain, perhaps you big eaters can help?”
“Oh, eat! We’d love to gobble it up!” Da Zhuang immediately cheered, the other ogres were also excited by Murphy’s “pie”, they could not wait to rush into the Valley of the Shadow and eat a lot.
Regrettably, this road had to be taken one step at a time.
Bear goblin cavalrymen for ogres this easy to satisfy the posture of great contempt, they are willing to fight for Murphy’s premise is the vampire lord to give a generous reward, but they will not write contempt on the face.
Not because they were modest, but because they couldn’t beat the ogre.
Well, what a tragedy.
The distance from the Hungry Mountain to the Black Flame Mountain Pass by land was quite far, at least one day would definitely not be able to make it, and Murphy didn’t dare to let the ogres go too fast, the large size of these guys doomed them to consume their energy quickly once they exercised strenuously.
Once the ogre is hungry, Murphy can’t get food, then the direction of things will become quite “troublesome”.
Good thing in the sulfur – Flywheel this guy is still doing things fairly authentic, in the sale of their own factories to Murphy incidentally, the food warehouse also opened, so that these big-bellied man hard full meal, according to the ogre’s rules of life, this meal is enough to allow them to carry through the three or four days.
But today Murphy’s luck seems to be very bad, of course, can also be said to be good.
Just three hours after this strange “Hunger Army” left Hunger Mountain, Murphy, who was napping, suddenly woke up, and Reverno, who was flying in the sky in front of him, shared with him a strange overhead view.
In a valley right in front of the Hunger Army, a large group of jackal wolf cavalry is chasing and killing a group of strange goat people, both sides of the battle has entered into a white-hot, the goat people are small, although they can use psychic energy, but in the face of the vicious jackal cavalry obviously do not have too many ways to defend themselves.
If no one else intervened, the goatmen would have to die under the jackals’ swords in ten minutes at most.
Those jackals were wearing strange battle flags and obviously came from the same tribe, but before, Lord Heather had emphasized that there were no jackals that had formed a colony near the Black Flame Pass, so these guys were probably the jackal vanguard that Murphy was looking for.
“Have the hordes of scouts all advanced here already?”
Murphy pondered in his mind:
“It seems that the Black Plague’s army has already begun to spread outwards, and a mass march from the vicinity of the Moss Valley to the Black Flame Pass won’t take more than ten days at most.
The Black Plague.
The Black Plague is really coming.”
“There’s a group of badass jackals in the valley ahead that are bullying the weak! The righteous ones can’t turn a blind eye, you guys charge from the ground and I’ll support from the air! If you win the battle all the meat goes to the ogres, all the money goes to the bear goblins, I won’t take a penny!”
The vampire lord no longer hesitated.
He stood up from the big strong broad shoulders, pointed to his fighters earlier and shouted:
“On! Charge!”
“Ow ow ow! Meat! Delicious meat! Tender, juicy jackal chops!”
Ogre Dude Big Strong wailed and started charging, the other ogres followed it in a chaotic manner and scattered forward, these five-meter-tall little giants ran very fast, and the ground shaking formation made Murphy very satisfied.
What a good formation breaker!
After giving these guys more refined armor and weapons, they could definitely become the best monster infantry under Maxim’s command! It seemed like he had to find a way to recruit more ogres to join the army.
These guys are the best to deal with, as long as they have a bite to eat they can fight.
The problem was that they ate a bit too much, but that wasn’t much of a problem, if just supporting food could keep one’s country away from the threat of the Black Plague, then Her Majesty, the Wolf Woman, would definitely not be shy about rewarding her loyal Governor of Transylvania.
The ogres and bear goblins began to charge, while Murphy had already flown high into the air, in the shadow cloak to block the sunlight letter hand behind the back of the replica model – dark good luck shotgun drew out, although the previous in the blood of Adele when the time to get a shooting specialization, but Murphy put his mind on the sword let his archery is rather mediocre.
Right now was a good opportunity to shoot.
The best thing about this Creator’s Gun in his own hand was that it didn’t require physical bullets.
“Aim and shoot! How hard can it be?”
Murphy hovered in the air, setting up his gun and flying through the scope with self-sight to lock on to a jackal in the valley below, who was in the process of mending the fallen goatman.
“Bang.”
The pool of Murphy’s spiritual energy acted as an ammo bin, allowing the converging spiritual energy to form a bullet that flew out of the gun’s chamber, and the trigger of the Dark Luck special effect caused the bullet to have a [Piercing Strike] effect attached to it.
The ferocious jackal laughed and raised its knife, but in the next second, half of its body was instantly torn apart, and blood splattered in all directions startling its seated wolf.
This brutal kill made Murphy very satisfied.
Although he had just aimed at the guy’s head, and the bullet landed on the jackal’s ass.
But none of this was a problem!
Regrettably, Murphy’s luck for the day ended here, and after that, he didn’t manage to trigger the gun’s good luck special effect even after firing a dozen or so shots in a row, causing him to quickly lose his interest in betting on his luck.
Blanch!
Listening to “Bloody Captain” Pablo bragged that after he got that gun, basically every shot would have a powerful status, worthy of being the luckiest man on the Misty Sea.
But the battlefield doesn’t need Murphy to use bullets to support, after the red-eyed ogres wailed and rushed into the valley, this group of jackal cavalrymen’s fate has been doomed.
Big Strong swung it’s scrap steel warhammer and lifted the two jackals in front of him into the air with a single hammer, lifting them into the air with their wolves.
The two unlucky ones were already dead the moment they took off, and when they fell, a greedy ogre jumped up and caught them, stuffing them into his mouth and chewing on their juices.
More than two dozen ogre group in the dark mountain range is basically can walk sideways, jackal people see the enemy immediately retreat, but the other side of the encircling over the bear goblin cavalry have been waiting for it, a burst of bombs chaotically bombed after let these unlucky jackal people lost the last chance to escape.
The group of desperate goat people are stupid.
They shivered and looked at the ogre in front of them, “even eat and take” the horror of the scene, although the jackals killed a lot of them before, but at least this instant, these goat people wearing robes began to feel sorry for the group of jackals encountered.
Being caught by an ogre is definitely the most frightening of all the ghost stories in the Dark Mountains, especially when an ogre is ready to show off its “amazing” cooking skills, you can’t even hope for a quick death.
“Hey! Why don’t you goat people have a conscience?”
These goatmen were ready to run away while the ogre was feasting, so that they wouldn’t become the snack for this group of pot-bellied men, but just as they were helping each other to leave, Murphy, who had fallen from the sky, held up the shotgun in his hand and aimed it at them.
The vampire lord said irritably:
“I and my righteous ogre-monster pals saved your asses, and you don’t even say thank you? BTW, are you civilized goatmen from the Abyssal City of Vidia? I’m guessing that you’re also from the ‘Dark Roots’ organization?
Here to monitor the fallen goatmen of Baphomet Canyon, right?”
“You! How do you know about us?”
The lead goatling lady was startled, the shaggy, hairy goatwoman with anticlimactic hooves as well as oversized clumps and the knowledge of accessorizing her hair with gold and silver jewelry exclaimed:
“Few people in the outside world know about Dark Roots . Wait a minute! You’re a vampire from Clan Bloodwing? Ah, great, the Elders have been searching for our mighty ‘Honorary Elder’ Lady Tris all these years. May I ask, is she still around?”
“What?”
The Murphys were dumbfounded.
He asked rhetorically:
“My dear Tris is actually an Honorary Elder in the middle-aged-to-the-point-of-explosion goat-man organization known as ‘Dark Roots’? Just how many secrets in her past life are waiting for me to discover? Ah, what an enigmatic woman.”
