My Players Are So Fierce

836: 285.

Brother Fa is on vacation, so this announcement is brought to you by Assistant Xiao Cui.

The perfect resolution of the issue regarding the ownership of Count Cico’s Earldom and the Winged Cavalry had put Murphy in a good mood, and Ellen’s unexpected joining of the Blood Vulture Clan had found solutions to the concerns in his heart.

Although it was somewhat immoral, Murphy felt at this moment that he perhaps should thank that damned Dwarf Loren for the misconduct during the war in Westerly Territory; if they hadn’t done such terrible things and made the situation in Westerly Territory as bad as it now was, Little Sheron and her knights wouldn’t have so obediently submitted to the new order.

Wow, such thoughts were really too venomous, even by a vampire’s twisted morals!

Ellen, who had just completed her First Embrace, needed some time to adapt to her new form of life.

It would also take some time for her to practice using her newly grown arms and legs.

Everything was well arranged and it would probably take two or three days, but this did not prevent Murphy from rushing to post a “development log” to take credit in front of his little players.

Ha!

You always say the development team is slacking off, but if I, your Dog Planner, now present the third set of the Occupation System and the new manufacturing specialization, how will Your Excellency cope with that?

With this pleasing thought, Murphy dragged his weakened body back to his office and couldn’t wait to pull out the Core Bead to start editing a new development announcement on the forum.

But he had just started when he heard a knock at the door.

Murphy looked up and saw Cui Si walking in with a tray that held a replica bottle and a glass, a soft and bewitching smile on her face.

She placed the glass before Murphy and attentively poured him a cup of blood wine.

“???”

This posture was unlike the defiant Scarlet Witch, which left Murphy bewildered until Cui Si brought the glass to his lips.

Then Murphy asked with a strange expression,

“What wicked plan are you hatching now?

Don’t tell me you’ve secretly taken all the gold from the treasury to buy wine?

Don’t even tell me you’ve been experimenting with something dangerous and have caused another mess…”

“Huh?

Is that really the unreliable image I hold in your heart?”

Cui Si immediately became discontent.

She slammed the glass down on the table and angrily glared at Murphy, scolding,

“I was genuinely concerned about your health, and this is the frivolous suspicion I get in return?

It seems I shouldn’t be so nice to you in the future, to prevent you from continuing to be so disrespectful and rude.”

“Sigh, let’s focus on the matter at hand, see, I’m busy here.”

Murphy was genuinely feeling weak, tired both in body and soul, and he wanted to finish the announcement quickly and then find a place to get a good sleep.

He didn’t have the energy to argue with Cui Si anymore.

Seeing the unhideable fatigue on little Mo Fei, Cui Si’s heart softened, and she didn’t pursue the issue of his recent rambling any further.

She took out her own Calculating Pearl and put it in front of Murphy, with a strange anticipation, saying,

“Give me access to that ‘player forum’!”

“Hm?”

Cui Si’s request made Murphy blink.

He was aware that the Scarlet Witch had been secretly observing his little players and continuously trying to learn about “Otherworldly Knowledge” from them.

He simply couldn’t suppress the curiosity of a Spiritual Overlord in this regard and let her do as she pleased.

Having experienced the vicissitudes of life, Cui Si was aware of what mattered.

She clearly understood Murphy’s concerns and the risks of getting too involved in the players’ lives.

But Murphy hadn’t expected Cui Si’s observation of the little players to be making such swift progress, nor did he know which loose-lipped fool had told her about the forum.

“What do you want to do?”

Murphy asked sternly,

“Since you know about the existence of the forum, you should be aware that it’s the relay point for our contact with them.

I won’t lie to you, my understanding of the different world comes through this wonderful information relay.

But Cui Si, I don’t think you’re ready to go there.

Your understanding of them is too superficial…”

“That’s exactly why I want to learn more about them!”

Cui Si answered seriously,

“A few days ago, my Warrior Lumina submitted something to me called the ‘elemental periodic table’…”

“!!!”

Murphy’s eyes widened as he exclaimed,

“Don’t let them bring all kinds of strange things here!

The physical rules of the two worlds are not the same.

What works there could potentially trigger a terrible catastrophe here.”

“It’s not as bad as you think.

I’ve studied that chart, and although Lumina tried hard to explain it to me, I still didn’t quite understand it.”

Cui Si’s face, usually filled with allure, showed a rare hint of frustration as she said,

“I feel like I am facing a completely different set of knowledge systems, and to understand those mysteries, I’d have to start learning from scratch.

However, I’ve sensed their powerful essence from that alchemical chart, which deciphers the mysteries of all things, and I am eager to know more…

I’m a Psychic, little Mo Fei, and I can’t contain the curiosity in my heart.

I promise you, I will not cause any trouble on the ‘player forum.’ I just want to lurk there, quietly observe them to satisfy my curiosity as a Psychic…”

Seeing Murphy still looking serious, Cui Si’s eyes darted around, and she stepped forward, pouting as she grabbed Murphy’s wrist and shook it up and down, whispering,

“Please, little Mo Fei, I have never asked you for anything before; consider it pity for your elder.”
