My Players Are So Fierce

It was the same as every battle that had taken place in the past six days.

The players led the charge, the NPCs followed up.

This had virtually become the “basic tactic” of the Cadman People’s Army.

After the players fearlessly opened the breach in the battlefield, the others fiercely followed through with high morale, thus quickly gaining an upper hand in battle.

Tonight was no different.

Even though they were facing more than 400 Wolf People in a super-sized gang, the assault team, consisting of nearly 70 players with 50 veterans and 200 new recruits, was not significantly outnumbered.

They also possessed an advantage in terms of equipment and firepower.

“The warriors of Sir Morphy impress me in many ways.”

Lord Kudel couldn’t help but exclaim again:

“Their courage, their sharpness, their determination, even their talent, are rarely seen in my lifetime.

Have you noticed, Maxim, just six days of intense fighting has turned these new recruits into seasoned veterans.

I even witnessed a recruit pass the Black Iron Trial just a few hours ago.

It’s insane.

A standard human warrior needs several years to reach this stage, but they only took six days!

If there were only one or two geniuses, it could still be considered a fluke, but they all exhibit such qualities.

It can only be described as a ‘miracle’.”

“No, Lord Kudel, you can look at it from another perspective.”

Maxim rested his hands on the Jed’s Blade, enchanted by Lady Cui Si, and shook his head, saying:

“Sir Morphy has analyzed this issue for me.

He said the key factor determining a warrior’s growth rate isn’t time, but the accumulation of experience and skills.

It’s been only six days, but have you ever seen a warrior, like our soldiers, who needs a long time to recuperate?

They are almost constantly engaged in dangerous battles, running from one to the next without rest.

The intensity of the battles they have endured in these six days is unimaginable for regular human warriors!

If these battles are broken down, in terms of frequency and intensity, it’s equivalent to the total amount of battles a regular warrior experiences over a year or even more.

I did a little calculation on my own, and these warriors in front of you kill nearly 50 to 60 Wolf People per person each day in these six days!

How splendid is that achievement?

And how heavy is that burden?

Looking at it this way, it’s no surprising that they could break into the Black Iron realm in just six days.

It’s the limit-pushing exploitation of their own potential, and their life’s creed.

Don’t you think so?”

“Your reasoning is novel and makes sense.

After all, the Black Iron Trial is a test of basic skills, combat experience and will.

It doesn’t have a rigid standard.

If a talented regular warrior could also reach the same battle frequency and intensity as these warriors, he might indeed be able to break into the Black Iron realm in just one or two months.

But Maxim…

You’re clearly changing the subject!”

Lord Kudel pushed the vulture mask on his face and said:

“You don’t have to intentionally hide the ‘secrets’ of these warriors in front of me.

I already know that they are not from the Saxon Region hill tribes.

Sir Morphy has already explained everything to me.

I know they are from Another World.

I also know their fearlessness in the face of death stems from the fact that they truly won’t die.

Still, I admire their fervor and dedication in battle.”

“Oh, that’s great.”

Maxim breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he was not good at lying, yet the truth about the warriors was a secret he was obligated to protect for his master.

“But I want to remind you, the explanation of ‘Saxon Region hill people’ may seem reasonable at first, but the more time I spend with these warriors, the more I realize that this account, it’s completely riddled with holes!

Their language, their habits, even their demeanor, apart from occasional neurotic actions that resemble the hill tribes, they are practically worlds apart.

So perhaps you should give Sir Morphy some advice, come up with a more believable backstory for these warriors.

If you really want to keep their secret.”

“Not ‘you’, but ‘us’, Lord Kudel, you’re one of us too.”

Maxim said without missing a beat:

“I believe your doubts are also within the considerations of Sir Morphy.

But I also believe that one day, all the answers to these mysteries will no longer need to be concealed.

They can be known to all.

However, right now, we all have our duties.

We must fulfill them to earn the reward of venturing even further.

I don’t want to miss out on Sir Morphy’s legendary tales.

I hope to play a commendable role in them.

I believe you feel the same, whether as a vampire or as a ranger knight from the old era.

You must know, Sir Morphy’s kindness to you is not because you’re a vampire.

He respects your unbending soul, just as he respects all life that is willing to contribute to this land.”

“Hmm, I appreciate what you said.”

The Baron of Hunting nodded.

He saw the flames rise in the upper cave of the Wolf People’s den, indicating the warriors, who served as the vanguard, had already created enough chaos and penetrated the core area of the Wolf People gang.
