Chapter 2547 - 850: Murphy’s Strange Allegiance Received
The strange sentinel maintenance master named "Monica" performed a shutdown self-check for an unusually long time. After a few minutes of waiting, Murphy lost interest.
He was busy, and had no time to wait for this strange robot to finish its self-check, so he gently placed the engineering wrench at her feet and set out to find the main entrance of the energy bay himself.
The area was torn by the terrain, wedged tightly, but the mechanical structure remained intact, thus allowing it to be opened smoothly from the inside.
Murphy didn’t spend much time following the path to the energy bay door and smoothly unlocked the door lock using administrator privileges. As the mechanical door slid open, a large pile of fallen rocks blocked the way forward.
But it was only rocks, completely unable to block Sir Murphy’s advance.
He threw out the multi-function device, transforming it into a semi-fixed magnetic cannon form, inserted an energy battery, stood back to rub his hands together, and adjusted the angle with some semblance of professionalism, then pressed the aiming button.
Among the resonant sound of energy gathering, the three guide rails at the front of the magnetic cannon subtly adjusted their angles in a tech-savvy manner. The metal probe in the energy emission form pushed forward to enter the pre-launch position, and upon Murphy pressing the launch button a second time, it sprayed lethal high-energy beams, constrained by the rails, converging into a flashing silver light before completing the launch.
The launch itself was silent, with only a faint sound of energy flow piercing the air.
Yet the attacked fallen rock erupted with a loud bang, causing the ground to tremble. When Murphy put away the multi-function device, the fallen debris blocking the door was cleared away with one strike. The dust-like stone debris filled the passageway ahead like gray powder, making Murphy nod in satisfaction.
Then, Murphy found himself locking eyes with Little Wei Ming ahead in the passage, who was munching on a piece of fruit candy with cheeks puffed out like a squirrel.
The handsome vampire remained expressionless, while Little Wei Ming was dumbfounded by the sudden burst of energy.
She had been hiding here to escape her mother’s restrictions, sneaking candy. Just as she ate a few pieces, the giant rock behind her was shattered by the strange attack.
She was still caught in that stunned pose, so shocked that the fruit candy in her hand fell to the ground, rolling away until it dropped into the chaotic gravity field molded by the subspace fracture.
Murphy hadn’t expected anyone to be across from him, and was also relieved that he chose a low-output mode earlier. If he had fired at full power, Little Wei Ming might have experienced an unwarranted disaster leading to a three-day internet ban.
"Ahem."
The handsome vampire didn’t know how to explain this incident, so he decided not to explain at all.
Just like the mature, cool demeanor he maintained in the past, he walked elegantly through the cleared passage with his hands behind his back. As he passed Little Wei Ming, like magic, he fished out a bag of fruit candy of the creator scavenged from the Swamp Forbidden Area, and handed it to Little Potato, as compensation for the candy consumed due to his mistake.
After completing all of this, Sir Morphy felt like a reliable adult and maintained his dignity as a mainline NPC, silently quickened his pace and vanished down the corridor leading from the fourth to the third floor, leaving Little Wei Ming alone, dazed.
A few seconds later, Little Potato finally reacted.
She looked at the luxuriously packaged hard candy in her hand that exuded a marvelous scent, then glanced at the giant rock passage shattered by one strike behind her. Unsure of what thought processes she engaged in, Little Wei Ming threw a piece of candy into her mouth, then immediately screamed in the Silver Moon Group’s private chat channel:
"Ah, Silver Moon Group ladies, I’ve discovered Sir Morphy’s little secret! He’s definitely a Golden One disguised as a Black Iron level!"
"Huh?"
Lumina responded immediately:
"Are you having another sugar overload hallucination? Didn’t we discuss this before? Sir Morphy isn’t a master in disguise as a pig to eat a tiger.
He’s truly just a Black Iron level..."
"No, no, no, this time I have evidence! Remember the blocked passage on the fourth floor sealed by a giant rock?"
Little Wei Ming countered:
"Lady Lena personally examined it and said this passage was completely sealed. She could shatter the rocks but couldn’t precisely control the power without damaging the delicate geological structure here; said other Golden Ones would also find it hard to do, but Sir Morphy achieved it with one flash!
I saw it with my own eyes, a silver flash swooshed by!
Whoosh, those giant rocks just turned to powder. I’m right here on the fourth floor. If you don’t believe me, come down and see!
To keep his secret safe, Sir Morphy even gave me a bag of [Data Deleted] fruit hard candy as a ’hush fee’, it’s so odd.
Although the label says ’snack’, its grade is a ’miracle creation’... but who is this [Data Deleted]?"
"It’s the creator!"
Originally uninterested in the matter, Lady Shui now spoke up to explain:
"While exploring the control room’s instruments, Cement sometimes sees [Data Deleted] labels. According to various deductions, this code likely refers to the mythical creator.
Then, you say Sir Morphy gave you a bag of the creator’s fruit candy? And this item’s grade is considered a Divine Artifact, the ’miracle creation’ on the current continent?"
