The urn containing the ashes of “Dwarf Victim Mr. X” was placed on the wooden shelf in Murphy’s office at dawn. For so strange sense of “ceremony”, Tris even found a dwarf-style ceramic urn to hold these ashes.
Actually, according to dwarven tradition, using a tal container would obviously be more formal.
For example, Brass Dwarves would use brass or gold urns, Silver Dwarves naturally use silver urns, and Frost Dwarves generally use cold iron urns. It is precisely because of this unique tradition that there are always many valuable items in dwarven grand tombs. However, there aren’t many grave robbers on the continent who dare to go to dwarf ceteries to steal things. The dwarves’ pettiness and maintenance of traditions are unimaginable to humans. If you offend them, it ans this debt will be rembered until you die.
In extre cases, it may even affect future generations, after all, dwarves are long-lived races, and they really hold grudges.
However, Murphy felt that even if this urn of ashes was sent back to Frosthold in the Great Wilderness according to dwarven tradition, those Frost Dwarves might not necessarily want it.
This thing has been “contaminated” after all.
Even if the Master Witch Hunters did their best to purify it, it would be difficult to bring more dignity to this unjustly dead person.
Being used by Dusk even after death, nearly causing a “scorched earth” tragedy thousands of miles away in Transia. If that dwarf Golden powerhouse knew about this in the afterlife, he might really have to thank the vampires for the “redemption” they brought him.
“I’ll trouble you to ‘stay’ here for a while, Mr. X,” Murphy said, placing the dwarf’s ash urn upright. He gently patted the urn and said in a strange tone:
“When we figure out your identity and background, we’ll send you back to your hotown for a grand funeral. Oh, by the way, I heard from Tris that your tradition is to be buried in the earth, but Crimson Citadel doesn’t have a Gaia temple, so I found this for you.”
He placed a package of soil that Maxim had dug up from underground around the urn, saying:
“Hopefully this will add a bit more dignity to your already departed life… What the hell? Is this thing trying to reanimate?”
Murphy had just piled the soil around the ash urn when he saw faint earthen-yellow light emanating from around the soil, like invisible hands embracing the urn’s surroundings. But the vampire lord strongly suspected if he was hallucinating due to lack of sleep.
Because this anomaly disappeared in the next second.
Considering that Maxim had randomly dug up the soil from a cave, and that his vampire descendant was certainly not a proper Earth Priest, Murphy’s expression quickly beca strange.
He knew that he, this vampire fiend, had once again “encountered the supernatural”.
He stepped back, wiped the dirt off his fingers with a handkerchief, and then summoned the semi-transparent character interface before his eyes, opening the deep data mode to carefully check the battle records. Sure enough, he saw a very familiar record:
【07:25:39 – You placed fresh soil around the ash urn of ‘Dwarf Victim Mr. X’, attempting to give this unknown deceased so dwarven last rites.
07:25:40 – Your prayer for the mysteriously identified Victim Mr. X alerted an Astral Realm Great Spirit related to dwarven civilization through the earth’s perception.
07:25:41 – The Dwarven Deity, Master of All Mountains and Earth, Foundation of the World, The Unbreakable One, Mother Earth Gaia, cast her gaze upon you.
07:25:42 – Gaia discovered you’re a vampire, She made a disgusted expression, but She quickly realized your uniqueness, you attracted Gaia’s attention.
07:25:43 – Gaia saw your act of bestowing final dignity to Her poor offspring, She was very pleased.
07:25:44 – Mother Earth bestowed a blessing, the land of Transia beca more stable and fertile, your territory will not experience any earth-related disasters for 12 months, all planting activities will yield an additional 10% harvest.
07:25:45 – Gaia shifted her gaze, She temporarily lost interest in you.
07:25:46 – The attention of the Astral Realm Great Spirit disappeared.】
“Why do I feel this isn’t surprising at all?” Murphy sat back in his chair, couldn’t help but rub his brow. If it were an ordinary vampire, or even a veteran like Tris who had experienced great storms, they would certainly panic when noticed by a deity.
But this “one-of-a-kind” treatnt among vampires was not the first ti Murphy had tasted it.
First it was Avalon, then the God of the North Wind, and now Mother Earth. Murphy increasingly had a strange feeling that he guessed his journey would ultimately involve contact with all the faith lords currently on this continent.
It’s hard to say if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but so far, his contact as a vampire – a piece of shit in the eyes of deities – with three Astral Realm Great Spirits has been quite “friendly”. Not only friendly, but Avalon even gave him a blessing.
This is probably sothing no one would believe if Murphy said it, but that’s the fact.
The deities don’t reject him, and coupled with old Finoch’s prophecy before his death, Murphy increasingly feels that his own “background” is mysterious.
“So, what exactly is ‘Alpha’?” The vampire lord couldn’t co to an effective conclusion no matter how hard he racked his brains, but he quickly realized that he shouldn’t waste ti on these strange encounters. He currently has more important matters that urgently need to be dealt with.
So Murphy grasped his core bead, first checking the status of the players.
After confirming that all little players except for the unfortunate ones who died had entered sleep mode, he copied the pre-edited text to the forum, and soon an official post was refreshed on the forum:
【《Reality Realm》 Today’s Online Update Announcent:
Yo, cute babies, seems like you’ve stirred up sothing big in the ga again! The developnt team’s deadly chain of phone calls woke up from my baby-like sweet sleep to hurry and release an announcent.
Really, this ti I truly hate you guys.
Now I’m still wearing my beloved star pajamas, rubbing my eyes, drinking coffee, sitting in front of the computer, sorting out this text that you must understand and see.
Okay, let’s get to the point.
Thanks to the brave and keen test babies who completed the random event ‘Ghoul Rampage’ today with lightning speed, this officially represents that the hidden dangers underground in Crimson Citadel have been discovered and dealt with, and Lord Murphy can finally put all his energy into the main process of expanding his rule.
This also ans that the first chapter of the main quest storyline will officially progress to the next stage!
The following are the update contents:
1. The main quest Chapter 1 《The Dawn of Transia》 is updated to the second stage ‘The Shadow of the Gnolls’.
As is well known, the gnoll bandits of Transia are a big problem, especially after Kadman City was destroyed by disaster. The only force that could previously suppress the rise of gnolls has perished, and those barbaric foreign races are now itching to make trouble. Any lord with ambition would not allow their subjects to live in the shaful predicant of being surrounded by foreign bandits.
After thorny internal problems have been resolved, how to deal with the foreign races surrounding the decadent territory becos a trouble that must be solved.
As before, Lord Murphy needs the strength and wisdom of the babies.
This storyline adds an important NPC:
【Nantes Ranger/Crimson Civilian Protection Officer/Hunting Baron】 Kudel Feodoro Seville Lessenbra.
The brave and fearless Civilian Protection Officer who has dedicated his life to the cause of protection has finally recognized the nascent regi before him and is willing to use his strength for the protection of Transia.
Any player who aspires to help maintain the territory can go find Lord Kudel and receive the initial quest for the gnoll shadow from him, and under the leadership of the Civilian Protection Officer, eliminate those dangerous foreign races and reclaim the land of the Transian people!
Developer’s note!
Lord Kudel is not only the commander for eradicating gnolls, but he himself is also a quite powerful leader who has mastered various combat techniques. After completing his personal quest, players can learn multiple advanced skills from him.
However, Lord Kudel is very strict in selecting his followers. If you want to gain his favor, you must be prepared to accept his tests.
P.S.:
This storyline will adopt special gaplay to progress, and the specific rules will be explained after the babies trigger the quest. Additionally, what can be revealed is that this storyline will end with the opening of the second “team dungeon” in the ga.
So what are you waiting for?
Hurry up and contribute your strength and wisdom to Lord Murphy’s great cause!
2. New faction ‘Blood Rat Gang’ implented in the sewer area.
The sewers of Crimson Citadel hide countless secrets.
Not only are there vaults left by various gangs, but also so long-circulated legendary stories.
In the eyes of treasure hunters, the sewer is a treasure trove hidden in the shadows. As long as you have enough skill and luck, you can co out fully loaded.
As for the Blood Rat Gang
Well, this is just a small organization that was fortunately recognized by Lord Murphy, but their background is not simple. The stories about these infiltrators and thieves will have to be discovered by the players themselves.
After completing a series of quests for the Blood Rat Gang, players aspiring to walk the path of shadows can go to ‘Razor’ Dorothy to change their profession to beco real thieves and infiltrators, or learn a trick or two of unsavory grave robber skills.
After all, as the saying goes, the more skills you have, the better.
Along with the Blood Rat Gang faction, a brand new story-based 5-person dungeon ‘The Rat King’s Doomsday’ is also open. The dungeon challenge can be unlocked after completing the Blood Rat Gang quest line.
In addition, due to their hatred for ghouls, the quartermaster of the Blood Rat Gang will sell rings made from ghoul teeth and accessories made from claws. If you can bring them very good materials, they are also happy to make ‘Ghoul’ series equipnt for you.
Including but not limited to Ghoul’s Tooth Dagger, Ghoul’s Claw Short Sword, and Ghoul’s Skin Set.
Uh, don’t worry, the ‘Ghoul’s Skin’ here is just an adjective, you don’t really need to go and peel off those disgusting skins.
P.S.:
This dungeon is a trial dungeon prepared for Black Iron Rank babies, with relatively high difficulty, but there are clearly hidden drops and more than one. So, collectors, start acting now!
3. Fight Club’s first season event ‘Walking with Ghosts’ is about to begin!
Maxim, who is eager to see warriors appear, has prepared rewards and opponents for those who are about to make a na for themselves in the Fight Club. The Blood Pact Knights from the Dark Mountain range also plan to establish their undefeated reputation in Transia, and there are dangerous elite creatures from the wilderness or underground waiting to be subjugated.
What are you waiting for?
Hurry up and get a ticket through various channels to participate in this carnival of blood and gold.
Oh, by the way, for new players, if you don’t know what profession to choose, why not start your gaming career as a ‘Gladiator’.
Win with rewards, lose without punishnt! Guaranteed profit, waiting for you to fight!
P.S.:
After the 3-month season event ends, players with over 100 victories will receive the limited title of ‘Duelist’ and a cool mysterious mount gifted by the Baron of Leim.
If you can achieve a series of harsh consecutive victory achievents, there are mysterious grand prizes waiting for you.
It is said that Lord Murphy once obtained quite powerful treasures in the Blood Vulture Clan’s vault, but I believe he will only bestow these truly divine weapons and equipnt to the bravest of the brave!
4. A new profession system will soon be open, revealing in advance that it’s the favorite of little pervert players who like to play dark flow gaplay.
5. Optimized more realistic physics engine and added more interactive intelligent NPCs.
6. Fixed a small number of bugs.】
As usual, this post attracted many comnts below, but the players who were struggling in the ga at this ti were not very active. Instead, the “appetite-whetting party” who couldn’t get into the ga were wailing all over.
Border Town Wanderer: 【Damn! How co it’s updated again! We haven’t even gotten in yet, and we’re already behind by a version? Can we even play this?】
Master Ziwei: 【This ga doesn’t even exist, right? Is it that a bunch of administrators’ alt accounts in the forum are just teasing us? Hey, don’t pull ! I’m not crazy! This must be a non-existent urban legend, right?
Unless you give a helt, I absolutely won’t believe it!】
Mustard Madman: 【Freeloading, right? Why don’t you divine for yourself?】
Master Ziwei: 【Divine your sister! Not in the mood to divine, okay.】
Honest Dog Egg: 【So, can soone tell when the next invitation code will be released? My good buddy Ah Yuen plays gas every day and doesn’t co out to team up with anymore, which proves this ghost ga must be more fun than the gas on the market.
Ah, it’s so frustrating, give an invitation code quickly, please, Brother Alpha! Give a chance to be your dog, I can also suck up!】
Night Phantom Bat Puppet: 【Brother, you’re playing a bit pervertedly.】
Vomit Sauce: 【Uh, has anyone seen ‘Half Off With Full Coverage’? Wasn’t he said to be in this ga too? How co I haven’t seen him post on the forum?】
Border Town Wanderer: 【??? How do you know his ID? Is this online family searching again?】
Vomit Sauce: 【Hey, don’t ntion it, it’s a long story. Anyway, if you see him appear, just @ , thanks everyone.】
Multi-Turret Chief Disciple: 【Ahhh, I just dread that I got the ga helt, I dread that I was flying in the sky with several vampires, damn, how exciting it was in the dream, how disappointed I am after waking up.
Alpha Company, you’ve done all the bad things!

Alpha: 【Not that bad, brother, really not that bad.】
Master Ziwei: 【A wild administrator appeared! Great Ball! Throw!】
Terra Nova: 【Administrator little brother! Tell honestly, is there really any inside information about the invitation code distribution? Everyone is waiting to hear.】
Corki the Pilot: 【Give a helt, brother, can I buy it? You give the card number, I’ll press zero with my eyes closed, it’s all fate whether I pay more or less.】
Alpha: 【I’ve said that the factory is already working overti, everyone please don’t rush! At most one month, okay! I promise on behalf of the company, there will be a new batch of helts distributed in at most one month.
However, this indeed has to be distributed according to the testing progress, aning that the little players currently in the ga must push the story progress to the next stage first.】
Border Town Wanderer: 【Got it! I’ll beco a cyber overseer right now! If they dare not play the ga properly and co to the forum to show off, we’ll severely whip them!】
Alpha: 【Uh, that’s not what I ant, but. whatever makes you happy.】
