My Players Are So Fierce

577: What monster to fight to level up?

All report for duty!

“This is simply a joke of his career!

If that warrior was my disciple, I would definitely kill him!

This is simply being too irresponsible for himself.”

Lady Cui Si, who had come to hand over affairs to Murphy, was as always slightly drunk.

She had already built the structure of the New Blood Vulture Clan, but upon hearing Little Brother Fu’s impoverished choice, this Spiritual Overlord was instantly furious.

She was waving a bottle of wine in Murphy’s office, complaining:

“The biggest advantage of summoners compared to psychics is their tactical flexibility and comprehensive functionality.

But now, that little fool wants to give up all this for a Scorpion-lion which doesn’t belong to him.

Alright, I admit, the combat power of an adult Scorpion-lion far exceeds that of ordinary Star Realm creatures, but so what?

No matter how strong it is, it’s impossible to stand against 12 Star Realm Wolves under the command of a summoner.

And keeping these Scorpion-lions is such a hassle.

They constantly need to be fed with all kinds of toxins to enhance their poisonous characteristics, and their solitary nature means they won’t get along happily with other summoned creatures by the summoner.

This simply is a self-imposed dead end!”

“But the Scorpion-lion is cool.”

Murphy was seated at his desk, working on calculations over a map of the Count Cardman’s territory, he casually replied without lifting his head.

“A summoner who can summon 12 Star Realm Wolves would certainly be praised as powerful, but the attention they could garner would still be incomparable to a second-rate summoner strolling around on a Scorpion-lion.

Cui Si, you still do not understand the true feelings of my small players.

Perhaps, it’s because neither you or I possess their kind of ‘eternal’ souls…

Just as we can’t fathom the people within a painting, we also cannot guess their thoughts, but I believe that for them, attention may be even more important than actual strength.

Moreover, you can see ordinary wolves at any zoo.

But even the most impressive zoo wouldn’t have nonsensical things like Scorpion-lions.

The things that we have but they don’t, are the most attractive treasures for them.”

“Howl.”

The large Star Realm Wolf, George, who was dozing at Murphy’s feet, gave an unsatisfied whimper.

He obviously looked down upon a Scorpion-lion who could only fly around.

However, within the Star Realm ecosystem, even a legendary Scorpion-Lion would not dare to provoke the wolf pack he belonged to.

Murphy glanced down at the wolf at his feet.

He thought to himself, you have the audacity to say that?

No matter how pathetic the Scorpion-lion’s gifts are, it could easily bite your head off.

Your own wolf pack is strong not because of your power.

What do you have to be proud of?

“Say whatever you want, but I still think it is very irresponsible.”

Cui Si yawned and threw a stack of documents at Murphy, and said:

“The structure of the new clan is ready.

You just need to sign, and then I will have Bonnie publish it.

We will use the form Milian created to record the new clan members and put them under the management of the Count Cardman’s Verge household registry.

This is probably the first time in a millennium that vampires have been asked to report officially on this continent.

I guess the other clans will look down on us.

But maybe your way might work too.

If it can indeed alleviate the conflict between vampires and humans, then let’s try to step out of the shadow of history.

You should thank Salockdale’s erratic behavior, Murphy.

Otherwise, in a well-established clan, your ‘tradition-violating’ thoughts would lead to your immediate ostracization.

Well, enough about this.

Phemys will be home tonight.

You should come with me to welcome her.

I heard that she brought us our first batch of Blood Alliance Knights assigned by Lord Pa Ying, as well as some supporting materials.”

Having finished the wine in Murphy’s office, Cui Si turned to leave but was stopped by Murphy.

“Wait, I still want to ask you about the situation in Westerburg.

Milian and I are planning to move the villages of the Count’s territory to the vicinity of Crimson Castle.

Because we desperately need people right now, she also wants to recruit some villagers from the Count Cico’s territory.

But I don’t know much about the issues in the north of Transylvania.”

Murphy said:

“I heard that after the fall of Westerburg two years ago, a winged cavalry was still fighting.

They were combating the enemy in the ancient forests on the northeastern border of Westerburg and Ice Bay.

What do you think, Cui Si?

Can we recruit these remnants loyal to the Posya Confederation under our command?”

“The Xico Winged Calvary won’t simply surrender to a new master, they are not loyal to the Confederation, they are only loyal to the master of those woods.”

Cui Si shook her head and said:

“Those fierce Winged Cavalry are descendants of mountaineers and barbarians, with ice and stone flowing in their veins…

Do you understand what I mean?

The precondition for you to recruit them is that you need to find them!

But in those forests left by their ancestors, natural forces protect them, making it hard for witch hunters to track them.

However, I think you can send your small players to scout around the ruins of Westerburg first.

There are indeed some villages nearby that can be included in your territory.

Considering the degree to which northern Transylvania has been ravaged by war, as long as you can provide sufficient food for those poor people and assign them new homes, they would be very willing to obey the commands of their vampire masters.

Of course, that place is nominally Count Cico’s territory.

So what you are doing is undermining their authority.

But considering the previous Count Cico, who was also the leader of the Winged Cavalry, was long ago killed by the Golden Flower Kingdom, his line is considered extinct…

so if you wanted to, you could simply annex the place.”
