My Players Are So Fierce

This grand chasm could serve as a break between the inner and outer city, separating trade and residential areas, as well as administrative and church districts.

Although Sir Morphy didn’t specifically instruct us, we think it would be appropriate to erect a new ‘Midnight Tower’ in the center of the inner city as a signature building of the Crimson Castle in the later stages of city construction.

Both the inner and outer city have reasonably complete sewer systems that can be used directly.

However, in the past, they directly discharged domestic sewage into the Kaderman River.

Obviously, this can’t be done anymore, so we have to build a sewage treatment and filtering facility outside the city and create a few more water storage areas.

During the recent Ghoul disaster, villains attempted to poison the water supply system under the city!

So Lord Morphy issued a special order to separate the underground water source from the everyday water supply.

Governor Miriam intends for the north’s Baron Lim domain to serve as the core residential spot for the future Earl of Cardman’s territory.

She hopes that we plan for irrigation for collective farms in the area.

However, this really is beyond our knowledge.”

“So, you’re not only building a city, but also planning the construction for the entire Earl’s territory?

This is more or less equivalent to the urban planning for a prefecture-level city.

No wonder you were so eager to pull this old man into the game.”

Old Chen cracked a smile and said,

“Indeed, this is not a project you two greenhorns can handle.”

The two guys grinned broadly.

Clearly, they were relieved that the experienced mentor had hopped aboard the sinking ship.

Well, they now have someone to take the fall, relieving a great deal of pressure for these two unconfident fellows.

“We’ve estimated, professor, that the entire Transylvania region spans an areas equivalent to one and a half provinces in the central part of our country.

But this place is famously sparse in population.

Even at its peak, the population of this vast area never exceeded 2 million.

After ten years of war, the population has dramatically dropped to less than 300,000.

So the planning is not that difficult.

With an expert like you, we should be able to handle it in a few months.”

Brickmover buttered him up:

“If you go register with us at the Governor’s place, you’ll be the chief architect of Transylvania.

You must have never undertaken such a big project in real life.

It’s exhilarating.

Plus, NPCs basically don’t interfere with our planning, the freedom in this regard is extraordinarily high!

You can even recreate a pyramid in Transylvania if you like, as long as your reason is sound, it can be approved.”

“Bullshit!”

Professor Chen scolded:

“Where will you find the manpower to recreate a pyramid?

With their current population, even building this city is difficult, let alone a pyramid.

Moreover, the task is not as easy as you think.

Before I start drafting, I need to have a good look around Transylvania to familiarize myself with the local geography and terrain.

I also need some local geographic and cultural data.

You two should come along and do some fieldwork with me.”

“That’s a bit tricky.”

Dust Beater shook his head and said,

“Other players are still eradicating the Wolf People.

If you want to do field work, the NPCs won’t let you go out.

Dying once results in a three-day cooldown before you can respawn.

It’s too much of a delay.

It’s better if you go check out the collective farm.

Let us three, master and disciples, handle these matters first and show off the capabilities of our ‘Stonemason Brothers’, then we can discuss the overall planning of Transylvania.

I think this is the main quest for us administrative players.

The battling classes have to subdue the threats in this land, the crafting classes have to make it prosperous, and we administrative players have to handle construction.

The game has clearly laid out the gameplay for each major class faction from the start.”

“I don’t quite understand what you’re talking about, but it’s clearly good if everyone does their job.”

Old Chen nodded and said,

“It seems that the NPCs in this game are indeed intelligent.”

“They’re more than just intelligent, professor.

Have a look at this.”

With a big grin on his face, Dust Beater handed over a few planning sketches to Professor Chen.

Glancing at them, the latter frowned and said,

“What are these drawings?

Childish scribbles?

If these houses were built according to these designs, I would write my name backward if they could withstand a rainstorm.”

“Hehe, these were drawn by my ‘apprentice’.”

Dust Beater scratched his head proudly.

Old Chen shot him a fierce look, replying,

“Do you even know your own level?

You’re teaching an apprentice, misleading the young!”

“It’s a professional mission, professor.”

Brickmover let out a sigh and explained,

“We have to take on apprentices.

Dust Beater has five, and I have six.

They are the smart boys and girls carefully selected by Miss Milian from the camp.

We need to help them pass the ‘Junior Architect Assessment’ within three months.

It’s not just us.

All administrative and crafting players have to take on apprentices.

It’s a part of the gameplay.

This damn game always insists on making everything so realistic.

Those kids are eager to learn, but the various problems they bring can be very frustrating.

This feels like the apprentice system in the old society.

Anyway, Governor Milian said that if their learning progress isn’t satisfactory or they refuse to obey our orders, we can even physically punish them or send them to jail.”

“What?”

The professor widened his eyes in surprise, exclaiming:

“Has gaming become this crazy?

Surely this doesn’t comply with relevant legal regulations?”
