My Players Are So Fierce

Murphy’s perception of subspace power comes from the Omega purification program, plus those few cans of [data deleted] soft drinks. Although he couldn’t be sure how acute his sense of chaos was, the dashing lord was certain that even on today’s continent, there wouldn’t be more than ten people better than him in the field of searching and locking onto subspace enemies.

Therefore, after developing “subspace-induced sudden migraine,” Murphy immediately realized something was wrong and issued a mission.

The battle at Shadow Valley happened just two days ago, causing those powerful players to retreat to the Fortress of Courage. By Murphy’s side were only a group of newbies whose equipment and power levels were average, but the good thing was they were daring and willing to fight. Therefore, after the mission “Seek Out Subspace Threats” was issued, a large number of newbies jumped into the trenches near the position to search downwards.

Murphy summoned Veylanther to go down with him and messaged Triss, who was on her way, telling her not to come over yet.

One incident of a subspace fracture appearing underground in Cardman City, almost letting the “Mother of Midnight” enter the material world, was enough. Right now, Triss cannot be allowed to get so close to a potential subspace gate.

Of course, exceptional commanders like Lord Qin and the old soldier of the Qing dynasty knew precisely what to do upon receiving that random mission. They were well aware of the destructive power when a subspace fracture opens, a scenario a hundred times more dangerous than a Star-world Tear. Therefore, they wasted no time issuing a retreat order.

The Transia People were practically in a “throwing away helmets and armor” state, sprinting wildly towards the rear of the position.

Fortunately, the Wolf People had already retreated, so the Transia withdrawal from the position wouldn’t lead to worse consequences. The news of the subspace threat appearing underground was also sent to the Golden Flower and the Nord.

Knowing the severity, Colonel Fraser quickly made a judgment, ordering the soldiers to follow the Transia People in a mad dash to beat the subspace threat being activated to a safe zone, but the Nord reaction was a bit slower.

That’s quite normal.

They hadn’t seen what it looked like when a subspace fracture opened, and these roughnecks weren’t very willing to abandon their positions.

Yet at such a critical moment, there really wasn’t much time to persuade Colonel Duke to change his mind. But as time went on, when the spiritual energy at the position started turning “turbid” rapidly, even Colonel Duke, doubtful of the retreat order, had to quickly make an adjustment.

Treasure, such a large-scale change in spiritual energy is unmistakable; something bad is really about to happen, run quickly!

As things progressed to this point, all commanders and leaders, including Murphy, had to thank the straightforward yet terrible terrain of Baphomet Canyon. It’s difficult to defend, but very convenient for retreat, with just that straightforward path.

If you have a horse, ride it; if not, just run with your feet.

Psychics were continuously casting speed-ups, while Transia’s vampire mages opened several portals just before the spiritual energy became completely turbid. The entire position was strewn with various items that couldn’t be carried away, resembling a jackal army charging while the civilized camp had already crumbled like falling mountains.

But such matters were not within Murphy’s contemplation and concern. He had already followed his players into the position trenches, proceeding downwards according to the guidance of “headache intensity,” with a few Earth Priests accompanying them professionally confirming that the source affecting spiritual energy lay deeper.

Given the urgent situation, they adopted a pretty brutal approach to break through the underground rock layers.

As a result, once the hole was opened, an energy more foul than the Star-world spiritual energy gushed out instantly, like a black-gray energy waterfall, drenching the Earth Priests. Two of them immediately started screaming in some entirely incomprehensible yet unnervingly eerie “subspace gibberish.”

Murphy’s eyes widened at the sight of this scene.

Not… you are, after all, priests of the Mother Earth. Is this SC cleared so casually?

Being corrupted just like that on first contact? This is too weak!

The Vampire Lord lunged, grabbing the screaming dwarves and giving each a slap, barely bringing them back to consciousness.

“It’s right below!”

The female Earth Priest, still holding her face, hoarsely shouted with her breath leaking through her mouth:

“I saw the Gloomy Nebula spreading before my eyes, I heard the endless truth calling, I saw the eye of the stars opening, the borders of the world dissolving, those extremely evil things entering our world in a burning and incinerating form!”

“Shut up! Looks like I didn’t hit you hard enough if you’re still babbling nonsense!”

Murphy scolded and raised his hand again, causing the female priest to shrink her neck, her affected mind clearing somewhat.

But the fact that silver-tier Earth Priests had their minds captured on first contact was too shocking for NPCs. They were clergy, the segment with the strongest willpower on the continent.

“All of you, go up! Use Earth Walking Technique to assist in evacuating people from the position, nobody’s allowed within ten kilometers.”

Murphy pointed to the top, drew his necessary evil, and looking back, commanded:

“My warriors! Your resistance to subspace filth is higher than theirs. I need you to join me in stepping into this perilous place. It may be a journey of no return…”
