My Players Are So Fierce

“Stop talking, Sir Murphy!”

The excited player Tata Open raised his battle sword high, making a “present the heart” gesture, and shouted loudly:

“We are willing to follow you to the ends of the earth! We are willing to face all strong enemies with you!”

“Me too!”

Another Tata Open beside him also shouted, as if a terrible “repeat switch” had been activated, and the crowd behind them echoed with “me too” sounds one after another.

They courageously followed Murphy and jumped into the ominous-looking underground chasm before them. As a result, upon landing, everyone went through a round of SC, and about a third of them failed, their psychic stress began to rise, and a special “spiritual vision” state was also activated.

It takes four rounds of SC for players to go from normal to completely fallen, according to the experience they gained in the Holy Blood Hall previously.

Such resistance cannot guarantee their safety in the subspace Filth Zone, but being able to withstand four rounds gives them more advantages than NPCs, considering that for NPCs, just one round of SC could turn them into subspace baa baa sheep on the spot.

“Gather around, and I’ll give you a status boost!”

Murphy called out, gathering the more than two hundred players who followed him down by his side. Then, in this land of filth from subspace, he pushed his Omega purification program to the maximum level he could currently control.

A ring of pale light quickly transformed into a “halo effect” with Murphy’s slight tremor, evenly covering the area within about 120 yards around him.

This was the first time Murphy had pushed the purification program to such an extent; the pressure and pain he was enduring at this moment were far more terrifying than before. But oddly enough, Murphy didn’t show much reaction to it.

It’s not that the pain had lessened.

He had sadly realized that he might have adapted to the simultaneous stinging on both his body and soul; yes, as various scientific studies suggest, even pain can be adapted to… but in every aspect, the situation in front of Sir Murphy remains a sad story.

Pain!

Heart, it hurt too much.

I, Murphy, have truly sacrificed too much for the resistance against subspace on this continent.

“Whoa, this halo effect is awesome!”

A guy in the crowd named “Card Face Tackle” screamed, making a masochistic sound as if he had seen a beauty, and the other players nodded in agreement.

Not only because they are sycophants of the mainline NPC, but also because Sir Murphy’s halo effect is indeed awesome:

[Omega Purification Field·Basic: All order-based lifeforms within this field gain a +5 to success checks when receiving subspace power tilted SC.

Resistance and damage immunity against chaotic side forces increased by 20%, damage against subspace creatures increased by 20%.

In attacks against subspace creatures, there is a certain probability of adding the ‘Divine Purification’ effect, increasing the positive energy damage that the target takes in the next 30 seconds by 30%.]

“Ah, so hot, so scorching, such a sharp feeling… it really makes one want to kneel before you, my little master.”

Murphy had just drawn the Solar Blade of Kulkan when he heard a panting voice beside him, which startled him so much that he almost dropped his weapon. As he turned his head, he saw Veylanther twisting his body in a bizarre posture, panting with a face as red as a peach blossom.

“Why did you come down too?”

The lord reprimanded:

“Is this a place you should be? Go up and assist with the retreat, if you get polluted by subspace, I’ll be in trouble.”

“I won’t be polluted, my little master, thank you for your concern.”

Veylanther moved her legs to leave the area of Murphy’s purification halo, hiding in the filthy shadows. Finally stretching her body that was nearly scorched earlier, she explained:

“Mother Earth’s divine power is positive, so when her priests face pure subspace flavor, they react so strongly, but Lady Spider emerged from subspace, and my divine spirit is originally a subspace creature, giving us followers a natural resistance to subspace corrosion.

I am probably the least likely to be captured by subspace here, except for you, so you don’t have to worry about me. The threat is just ahead, I can feel a ‘door’ is slowly being pushed open.

The good news is that the gap is not large.

The bad news is that some hot-tempered guests are about to ‘come in’.”

“Follow me forward!”

Murphy no longer hesitated, advancing forward with one hand on the necessity of evil and the other on the Solar Blade.

The players noisily followed him, and two minutes later, the second round of SC struck strongly, but this time, with Sir Murphy’s halo support, most players, except for a few particularly unlucky ones, passed the SC smoothly.

Veylanther had already pointed out, this time the subspace fracture opening is not big, barely even micro. It’s basically equivalent to opening a slit between the material world and subspace, so the dice requirement to resist psychic corrosion is only 10 points.

Plus the 5-point assist from Murphy, players only need to roll a number higher than 5 with a 20-sided die to be immune to corrosion.

So how did those unlucky ones manage to roll less than 5 twice?

Hey, with such luck you must have destroyed the world in a past life, right?

Joking aside, the players are undaunted,

Even if they fail SC twice, they are not scared; it’s just that the world in front of them becomes more “colorful”, it’s just that the image of others in their eyes starts to distort, it’s just that they start hearing some weird phantom sounds, it’s just that their minds get sleepy, always wanting to slash their blades onto others.
