My Players Are So Fierce

Chapter 2893 -964: The Civilization of the Half-body Man Is Like a Candle in the Wind

“Speaking of which, my dear wife shouldn’t be so fragile, right?”

“It’s not about fragility, Murphy, I’m not sad either.”

Triss’s tone was filled with a unique timbre that made Murphy feel heartache, she said softly with frustration:

“I just… I don’t know how to describe it, but compared to the research and deconstruction with His Excellency Crow these past few months, the many years I called myself a ‘Theologian’ seem more like a waste of time.

I know his interpretation of faith and the Divine Spirit is built on the cognitive foundation of another world, filled with a pragmatic and idealistic simplicity, and his theory is still very rudimentary, with many flaws, like the concept of the power and obligations of the Divine Spirits, that can’t be defined by the terms of a contract by the followers.

Yet this can’t overshadow his explanation of that missing symbolic element of the faith, especially regarding the power of collective expectations and activism, it indeed fills a very important gap in the current continental theological system.

Especially for the Berserker Temple.

If Vam’s priests could learn from this lesson and compile a clear divine objective for Vam’s doctrine, the influence of the Berserker Temple might spread within a few years.

I can’t accomplish such a task, Murphy.

My mind is filled with outdated notions, only capable of analyzing God and faith from a concept of power, brimming with utilitarianism.

I will never be able to conduct a rational deconstruction like Crow.”

“Of course you can’t, because you are not a faithless person, Triss, even a vampire without faith cannot discuss powerful and transcendent divine spirits in a dispassionate manner as if dissecting a research object.”

Murphy sighed and said:

“This is the unique advantage of the small players.

They are true materialists and atheists, such individuals can’t be found in this world at all.

They naturally can analyze these things from exaggerated angles we never thought of, it’s really not your fault, you need to cheer up, now we’ve determined how to proceed with the faith transformation of the Midnight Mother.”

Crow can’t intervene in the following work, we can only rely on you, this outstanding theologian.”

“Bang bang bang”

The urgent knocking sounded at this moment, pulling Murphy’s head up from the documents in front of him, he saw a solemn Adel holding a document as she walked in.

She said:

“The Steam Lords have sent another plea for help, Master Murphy, this time it’s a ten-thousand fire emergency, Charldo Harbor’s satellite towns have been breached by Wolf People! The armies of the Bonebite Clan have destroyed the outer walls of the city.

The Commander of the Black Flame Corps, Colonel Ron, has also sent back news, confirming this bad report.

Just now, the Blood Covenant knights group sent an order, Lady Lionea and her Bow Knights have been conscripted, we must also dispatch troops to support there.”

“What happened? How could the situation deteriorate to this extent all of a sudden?”

Murphy stood up, looking at the document in front of him, he said with a tightly furrowed brow:

“Wasn’t it said that The Master of Hunting, after falling, brought the Wolf People a psychic plague that’s hard to eradicate? With the rioter state of the Bonebite Clan, they shouldn’t even be able to maintain formation, let alone fight, maintaining their organization is already an unimaginable result.”

“I don’t know, Master.”

As Adel spoke this, she deeply felt the failure and awkwardness of her role as an intelligence officer at this moment.

But she still earnestly replied:

“We lack strength and manpower on the Ligurian Peninsula, no one knows what has happened there recently, perhaps the Wolf People have found a way to eradicate the psychic plague?”

“Or maybe they have turned to offer their ferocious faith to another master worse than The Master of Hunting.”

Murphy took out a battlefield photo shot with a Half-body Man camera from the documents, putting it in front for careful inspection. In the sunset backdrop, amidst flames and smoke advancing towards Charldo Harbor, the Wolf Man Rioter bodies were surrounded by a purple glow that felt familiar to Murphy.

He tossed the photo onto the table, rubbing his brow, saying:

“It’s that Twilight causing trouble again, these bastards have started directly worshiping the shadows of subspace… Contact the Thorn Clan, Adel, let them leverage their connections with the Thieves Guild, I want to ascertain the current progress of the Wolf People on the Ligurian Peninsula and their strategic planning.

Also send a message to Maxim!

Immediately draw People’s Army warriors to assemble the Transylvania Expeditionary Force, send out task instructions to the players, they’ve already rested for several days, it’s time to return to the battlefield.”

“Are you going there in person?”

Adel asked, and Murphy nodded, saying:

“There’s nothing left for me to do here, and besides, there’s Pharaoh King’s banquet invitation, the most important thing is, there’s still a contingent of Transia people stranded in Charldo Harbor.

I must bring them back.”

By the way, are those Helms’s men still wandering around Transylvania?

Send an invitation in my name, their goal is to hunt Twilight, I’m certain on the current Ligurian Peninsula, there’s bound to be many, many prey waiting for them to chase.”
