316.The Lost Treasure of the Bone-Gripping King (page 1/2)
Murphy's appearance in Smuggler's Grove quickly aroused "weird enthusiasm" among new and old players. The appearance of mainline NPCs here shows that they have indeed triggered an incredible hidden plot..
On the other hand, the way Murphy appeared on the stage also made old players shine..
He did not fly over this time, but appeared in front of everyone riding a very strange skeleton horse decorated like a monster made of bones and steel..
It looks very much like a skeleton cavalry vehicle, but just from its appearance and appearance, you can tell that this thing is definitely a "high-end product."”！
“Lord Murphy’s new mount is so handsome! Is this the dog planner trying to make a fool of himself again? So can I get this kind of skeleton war horse from Scarlet Castle through some damn channel?？”
Brother Shovel, who was itching to watch, whispered something to Niu Niu beside him. The latter did not answer immediately, but looked at the "man and horse" posture of Mr. Murphy in front of him..
I have to say that the gloomy vampire and the ominous thing like the skeleton war horse are really a perfect match. What stands out is the "evil playboy style"”.
“Probably some kind of high-level reward？”
Ah Yu, who likes brainstorming, couldn't help but think about it.：
“You see, we saw the skeleton cavalry in Smuggler's Grove and were almost overturned by them. Does this mean that the hidden plot that was triggered has something to do with skeletons?？
There is also precedent for this！
Just like the various equipment sold by the Blood Rat Gang in the sewers are all related to ghouls, I guess we can get this special vehicle as a reward after completing this plot.？”
“Ah, why a ground vehicle?？”
Mo Niqiong also liked the gorgeous style of the skeleton war horse. He couldn't help but complain.：
“Why not just make Invincible with wings? How cool is the flying skeleton horse! This way I can fly to the sky with my stinky baby.”
“Well, good idea！”
Murphy, who was beside him, felt something in his heart..
He immediately decided to write down Brother Xiao Fu’s idea in his little notebook, and later asked the corpse witch to try to see if he could add wings to the skeleton war horse..
This thing belongs to the undead structure.
Its body is dead, and it currently only relies on the power of death to support its structural body to continue to move. Therefore, theoretically, its appearance is not restricted to a certain fixed form. Therefore, adding wings may sound outrageous, but it is definitely feasible.！
However, before Murphy could share the "hidden plot" of Smuggler's Grove he had conceived with his little players, he received a psychic communication from Tris..
“You said that corpse witch is Adele's elder?？”
When the lord heard the news, he immediately twitched his eyes..
But thinking about it carefully, the Corpse Witch said that the time when he died in the Filthy Swamp more than twenty years ago coincided with the time when Adele escaped into Transia, which made him unable to help but make more associations..
He immediately realized that he could use Adele's relationship to get more information from the corpse witch, so Murphy no longer stopped there. After encouraging his little players to draw cakes for them, he The command scepter and skeleton horse at hand were handed over to Hogg for his disposal, and he spread his wings and flew back to the Scarlet Castle at dusk..
Bloodclaw Chief Hogg is also confused now..
It had thought that asking Lord Murphy's warriors to come forward could solve the problem it was currently facing, but it did not expect that less than half a day after these guys entered the Smuggler's Wood, the big trouble of the Blood Claw clan had been completely solved..
In the Jackal Outpost, Hogg held the very cold command staff in his hand and used it awkwardly to control the elite skeleton army..
After using it for a few minutes, it regretfully placed the staff in its arms..
This thing is very powerful！
It can control the elite skeleton army for its own use, but unfortunately, there are only more than two hundred undead creatures bound to this scepter..
This means that other skeleton soldiers wandering in the forest are still a big threat to the Blood Claw Clan, but the most troublesome elite skeleton army is under his command, which undoubtedly increases the strength of the Blood Claw Clan several times in an instant. , which also means that it has finally truly become the "King of the Glades"”.
With the clan barbarians, elite kobolds, and skeleton army it currently has under its command, it can even call itself the second largest force in the Dark Barony after the "Unbreakable Wall" Crimean Fortress.！
“Lord Hogg, what should I do with this weird-looking bone horse?？”
The little Nash who was following Hogg looked at the skeleton war horse quietly parked not far away, waiting for orders, and he said with some regret.：
“This thing is quite powerful. It looks like a powerful thing that only the warlord should own. Unfortunately, it is too big and we jackals are not used to riding it..”
“Then keep it in the clan treasury.”
Hogg narrowed his eyes and said very cunningly and decisively.：
“Let this be a gift to the strongest among the warriors who are kindest to us! Since there is only this one, then naturally it can only be given to the most powerful champion.！
Nash, go and deliver the order..
Tell this good news to the warriors hired by us. In this bounty hunt, whoever kills the most skeleton soldiers will get the final gift from the Blood Claw tribe..
Ah, I probably understand how to use their power..
In addition, since the security of the forest has been entrusted to the warriors, our patrolling barbarians no longer need to be wary..
You go find the most powerful hunters and barbarians in the clan to form a team. I will take them into the filthy swamp after the clan has settled down. We have to explore a way for Lord Murphy..
That's what we have to do！”
——
“You confirmed that that guy was your Uncle Bella who escorted you out of the swamp and died doing so.？”
After Murphy returned to the Scarlet Corridor, he summoned Adele in his office. Sister E's expression was quite subtle at this moment..
Facing Murphy's question, she hesitated and replied：
“it is indeed！
I will never forget Uncle Bella's face and his voice, but it's not quite that. Death seems to have taken away something that belonged to him, making it strange in my eyes..
I talked to it.
I can only tell you, my lord, that I can no longer trust it as completely as before..
As it said, now it is just a cursed dead, a controlled corpse witch. It does not even have free control over its own existence, and naturally it cannot express its emotions without reservation..
But there's still news you need to know.”
Adele paused and said：
“Not only was Uncle Bella resurrected by the Gnoll Warlock, but my Aunt Bernice was also resurrected as a Knight of the Underworld and was also manipulated by the Gnoll Warlock..
Uncle Bella realized the power we had after hearing about our battle experience in Transia, so he asked me to rescue his wife..
It tells me that he can exchange this help with some 'dangerous' information.”
“So, your Uncle Bella did hold back on me in the previous conversation, what a sly guy.”
Murphy snorted and asked.：
“Can you describe to me the Uncle Bella you remember?？”
“Um.”
Adele replied immediately：
“Uncle Bella is a half-elf, and like my father, he was once a gladiator of the Medjeva family..
He used to be better at psychic powers. When my mother planned to escape, Uncle Bella was also one of the strongest supporters..
His yearning for freedom is as unquenchable as a flame. After we entered the secluded valley and lived there, Uncle Bella has been serving as the defense commander of the valley..
He and Aunt Bernice are partners.
They were a deadly pair in the gladiatorial arena, and their years of fighting gave them a close connection. They also had a daughter who was born in the same year as me..
I remember her name was 'Lisa', she was my best childhood playmate.
But as you said, Uncle Bella is also a cunning person. The first half of his life has determined that his way of thinking must be from the perspective that is most beneficial to him..”
“can you give me some advice？”
Murphy nodded and asked again：
“If I need to make some mutual aid agreement with your Uncle Bella, where do I start?？”
“free！”
