Chapter 3157: Transylvania’s Three Hundred Warriors Achievement Unlocked (Part 3)

“Ah, I understand!”

Ellen immediately became excited and asked:

“So, can we buy dragon knights?”

“Uh…”

Murphy looked at Ellen with a strange expression.

Thinking to himself, what’s up with this girl?

What do you need dragon knights for if you’re planning a righteous resistance against the invaders? Are you really planning to lead the Mountain People to exterminate the Goldenrod People in the Saxon Region?

Hey!

Genocide is not the way! And even with dragon knights in hand, you couldn’t push back.

In the early days of the ten-year war, the Saxon Region was captured by the Goldenrod Kingdom, and the plains there have long had their governance structures built and real military fortresses and defenses established by the Goldenrod People.

Aside from the Pioneer Army, the Greeny Army Corps of the Goldenrod People also has a task force stationed there long-term.

It’s a truly elite force.

Without the regular army of Transylvania participating in the war, the likely result of the Mountain People’s rebellion is reclaiming the forests; they can’t reach the plains and there’s no need to, as it’s never been their traditional power base.

Seeing Murphy’s glance, Ellen realized she might have overthought it.

As a mechanic, she was somewhat regretful about not being able to command dragon knights in mechanized charges on the plains, but soon, her clever little mind conjured another plan.

Since they were contacting the Perfect Shipping Company to buy weapons, renting some airships would also be nice.

If the Mountain People had their own armed airships…

“Cough, cough, I’m considering something, Governor!”

Ellen put away her mechanic fantasies after a few minutes and seriously said to Murphy:

“With the help of the Foreign Spirit Heroes, we can probably help our compatriots reclaim their forests, but what do we do after that? Should we let the Mountain People of Sax join Transylvania?”

“That would be a formal declaration of war, Little Sheron.”

Murphy shook his head and said:

“Milian is also discussing these matters with her advisors. Currently, the best outcome seems to be the Mountain People establishing an independent state in the area that has always belonged to you, managed by elders sent by the Ancestor’s Woodland, and appearing independently on the continental stage. It’s similar to the current situation of the Wam Barbarians. Although they’ve never established their own country in Ice Bay, everyone defaults to Ice Bay being the domain of the Barbarians, even the Northerners who have always been at odds with them think so. The Mountain People should learn from this mindset.”

“Oh, I get it.”

Ellen nodded and said:

“With Transylvania as a backer, we’re not afraid of the Goldenrod Kingdom’s crusade. The forest area in the Saxon Region is quite large too, sufficient to establish a small principality… Wait!”

She suddenly linked it to what Milian had been up to recently, turned her head towards Murphy, and said:

“So, will the Kato and Kafuhoka regions also implement this model in the future? Allowing them to establish independent states and then reorganize into a Posya Confederation-type regional union system, forming a united front to resist Goldenrod and Nordtof? With Hog’s Kingdom of Jackal People secretly supporting from the rear now, if there were another ten-year war, we definitely wouldn’t lose this time.”

“See, you’re quite smart.”

Murphy laughed and said:

“But that’s something for the future, no need to consider it now…”

[Ding! The 300th Silver Ranker in the Foreign Spirit Heroes group has emerged, hidden achievement [Transylvania’s Three Hundred Warriors] activated! Achievement points +30.]

A sudden prompt interrupted Murphy’s words, making the Vampire Lord raise an eyebrow.

He immediately checked the administrator system and discovered that just now, Threejin Sweet Potato Burn, an art student, had narrowly completed the silver trial by tracking down and dueling a Chaos Warlord alone while hunting down filthy Jackal remnants on the coast of the Ligurian Peninsula (Rhenia).

Although the data showed only a lowest-level potential development of 80% and three Ancestor’s Powers creating a “watered-down silver,” and there were quite a few such Silver Rankers in the current player group, the fact that 300 Silver Rankers had been brought under his command still made Murphy visibly pleased.

What’s wrong with watered-down silver?

Even watered-down silver has progressed in life form and stepped into the realm of the strong!

And Transylvania, with 300 Silver Rankers, has undoubtedly placed one foot into the ranks of “great powers.”

“What is it, Lord?”

Little Sheron asked:

“You seem so happy, is something good happening?”

“Yes, good news, all good news!”

Murphy waved his hand and said:

“I’ve just been thinking it’s been a long time since newbies entered Transylvania en masse, so I’ve decided to conduct a large-scale interdimensional summoning in a few days, bringing more Foreign Spirit Heroes into our happy Transylvania family to join in the grand endeavor. Speaking of which, the previous kind of free summoning is somewhat unsuitable for the current situation, and I think we should adopt some more advanced summoning methods. How about allocating this interdimensional summoning according to the population ratio of each race in Transylvania?”

“But aren’t heroes able to change their race according to their preferences?”

Ellen asked in confusion:

“Before, many girls changed themselves into mermaids; summoning heroes based on proportion doesn’t make much sense, right?”

“That’s a benefit for veteran players.”

Murphy stroked his chin and said:

“Now that we’ve weathered the most dangerous times, the heroes also need to learn to accept new changes. They can still change races after meeting certain conditions, but during the newbie period, they should still adhere to the basic rules of role-playing games. Speaking of which, we used to offer free race conversions for heroes. Such a good service, it’s a waste not to charge for it… people used to complain we didn’t have any pay-to-win options, well, now we can make up for that shortcoming. Isn’t it just about setting up paid features? Let them see the capabilities of us ‘dog planners’ this time!”
