— Well, Mahan, what is it? he suddenly wailed. - Well, how do you manage to dig these castles?I didn’t tell him that, in fact, both castles appeared to me thanks to one pretty young lady, whom I first helped to marry, and then ... Then lieutenant Rzhevsky arrived, and then this began!An Evil Gnum fell out of the portal at us. Looking around, he immediately summed it up:"Ah, Mahan?" Did you get a new lock? Are the ashtrays clogged in the old one?“No, no,” I replied with a yawn. We ran out of firewood for heating.- Then yes! said the Evil Gnum. Why didn't you take two? Did I treat you to coffee or not?“Yes, I didn’t know that you needed it too,” I shrugged."Well, what do we have here?" - Eric and the evil Gnum simultaneously rubbed their palms, apparently leafing through the papers sent to me by Sidorov.“It’s simple here,” I said. - I got a level 18 castle with a garrison. At level 20, the garrison will double. At level 24, all fighters will add 50 levels. At level 28, the garri
“Hic et nunc,” she replied. “At first you disappeared, and completely disappeared, and I was worried…” she gratefully clutched the brought glass of fruit drink, as if restoring mana after a complex spell. - And then this video from you and silence again. You know, when this invitation to the raid came from you, some kind of Tomb did not bother me much ...- But why? I asked the stupidest question I could.- Is there a "why"? she asked me. “Okay, I'll tell you why. Because you are fun and interesting. Because…” She hesitated, trying to find a better explanation. - Because you gave a bunch of flowers to a sad girl at the station ... Well, how can I explain to you ?!“My heart is not free,” I said thoughtfully.“I just need to be there,” she breathed. I nodded.- It is very important to me, Natalie, that you are near.It was not yet dark when she asked me to take her to the hotel. At the entrance to the hotel, she asked to be brought to her room. Then she invited me to take a look at the
- Need to try! I scratched my head. - There is also some kind of “Indefatigable Quartet” there. What will be given for it is unknown.— Popvobovat? Flute furrowed her brows menacingly.- Exactly! Plinto exclaimed. - There is also "Three Maidens!" In this way, you can definitely get three visits a day!“Three months for ten levels…” I thought. - And Gnum and Eric should help ...- Three months! Shilopopaya rolled her eyes.- You motherfucker! - Flute's eyes jumped out again, and Natalie began to fill out. Something needs to be done with the eyes too! I took out the amulet of communication and activated it:“Gnum, buddy, I’m in Altameda, can you drop by?”- What am I, a grasshopper, to jump around the castles? the amulet replied in an unhappy voice.— Viltraks! I called. — Deliver, please, by the portal of the Evil Gnum.- Will be done! the manager replied.A minute later, the master of all trades himself appeared:“Well, why else are you distracting me from the case?“I had a brilliant
"Don't tell Plinto!"- Why? she asked.“Because today we still have to go to the Tomb with Ehkiller,” I answered, turning to the exit.She grabbed my hand and turned me around.- Why she? she demanded.- Why not? I shrugged.But you don't love her! she reproached me."Flute," I said, "who are you?"She fell silent and pouted, and I went to gather people on a campaign. We had five days of farming ahead of us. Plinto told me that Anastarii and Barsine had marked out on the map an area around the Tomb where they were forbidden to go. When the Angels removed them, they also took down 10 levels for them, and for a player of the Anastaria level, this was a terrible loss. Now Phoenix would take anyone in raids to the Tomb, but not these two - 10 levels, when you yourself are above 300 - this is a lot of money. The funny thing is that we managed by morning - the path was already beaten, I knew what to do. Plus, I now had an Uber Zombie. In all seriousness. In the line "Race" near my ponytail
“Well, I went,” Calathea chuckled, releasing my elbow. Thank you for a nice evening and hope to see you next week!“Have a nice day,” I replied.- Yes, what a day! she waved her hand. - I'm going to sleep! — and disappeared in the flash of the portal. I summoned Viltrax, and we found ourselves in the castle.Flute, please let me go! I asked.“I’ll let you go now, and you’ll go and do stupid things!” she disagreed.“I won’t,” I promised.- What a fool! she muttered. - You'd better do it! And then you keep it all...“If I didn’t hold it, I would be waving a pick in the mines now!” I objected.The flute let me go, walked around in front and looked into my eyes.— Don't hang your nose, Shaman! she asked quietly. - Still forming!“I know,” I nodded. “But that takes time. I'll go, Flute.“At the weekend, I take it you won’t be here?” she squinted at Shilopopuya.“No, it won’t,” I replied.She sighed and I pressed the exit button. Having got out of the capsule, I climbed into the shower, whe
The morning after the end of the first week of wild pandemonium in the Tomb, alternately with the Phoenix, the Legion, Crius and Calathea, I returned, having completely forgotten about the previous acquisition, and almost jumped on the throne when I heard the voice of the Flute from the next room:- And I'm looking at your eggs!I went to see what she was doing there. The zombie crawled around one of the eggs, scanning every millimeter of the surface.- I'll go to the yard, I'll watch the arrangement of the landfill! I told her.- Yes! she replied. - If you are going to do something interesting - do not forget me!I got into a routine. Well, how - I got busy ... There, even without me, everything was fine. The only thing is that in some rooms there was no access lock without me or Plinto. But I heeded Plinto's request almost immediately, and as a result, only I had full access to almost all the functions of the castle. Of course, I also ruled out Anastaria.In general, for half an hou
“Talent search,” he explained. “When you had information technology with global cloud-connected server projects, we began to attempt to infiltrate your networks in order to obtain computing resources to restore our ship simulator. Very soon it turned out that this task is not trivial in essence. And then there was Barliona. The main difference between Barliona and its predecessors was its "liveness". The imitators acted not only with exceptional intelligence, but also in many cases showed pronounced emotions. Our analysis suggests that Barliona is a symbiosis of mind and artificial intelligence.“Having understood this, even at the dawn of the project, we infiltrated it under the guise of non-player characters, distributed pieces of the code of our Simulator around Barliona and began to wait for daredevils who could repair our ship’s brain. It became clear that just a person is not enough for this, special talents in the psychic field are needed. After analyzing our needs, we created
With a terrifying roar, a huge portal opened in the clouds, in which the Dragon appeared. Renox looked around and swooped down on the artifact like a stone. With all my might, flapping my wings, I rushed to intercept him.- Father! I shouted. - Father! Renox!He stopped and hovered in the air, noticing me and Drakosha."What are you doing here, son?" he asked when I was next to him. Why are you interfering? You know you can't stop me!"I'm not going to, father!" - I said. “But I can help. I think I can make Geranica unable to use the Heart of Chaos.“Not the time for your games, son,” Renox replied. “I have to do it and I will.The dragon blocked his path.“Listen to your brother, father! he asked. Let your son save you!Renox stopped again and looked at me.“I have grown up, father,” I said. “You must trust me.“Good,” he agreed. - What do you want to do?"I can't tell you yet," I replied. “But I need you to drive Geranika away from the Heart of Chaos. Then I'll do something with him
