Murphy’s Hands-On Guide to Becoming a Qualified NPC – “The Treasure Chest Theory

“Based on Reveno’s observations over the past few days, the number of Wolf People within the borders of Transylvania has dropped to a mere one-fifth or even less,”

“This number has reached a safe threshold.

They are unlikely to regroup in a short period of time, and furthermore, winter is not their mating season, so there’s no need to worry about their numbers increasing dramatically prior to the outbreak of the Black Disaster.”

“Therefore, I think we can declare this Werewolf hunting operation to be over.”

In the tent that the Adventurer Guild had set up, Murphy said to President Natalie:

“But this is just the beginning.

I believe we should carry out a similar expulsion every year, and it seems more appropriate for your Adventurer’s Guild to handle this, don’t you think?”

“I have no objections.”

President Natalie nodded in agreement and said:

“Based on our past experience, it’s quite difficult to completely eradicate the Wolf People from a region.

These barbarians adapt to the environment frightfully well.

Employing a strategy of annual population control seems to be an excellent idea, as it provides both training for the troops and maintains a state of readiness.

Nonetheless, I guess you didn’t just come talk to me under this scorching sun to discuss just this matter?”

“Not to hide anything from you, my Lord, but I’m rather busy at the moment.

Miss Milian has requested that we establish a dedicated management institution for the ‘Warrior Guild.’

I was discussing the matter with Old Eugene, thinking of asking him to come out of retirement, but the guy is solely focused on the construction of the Sanctuary and is not interested in dealing with this matter, which is giving me quite a headache.

Most of the Witch Hunters were raised from an early age to be demon Huntresses, so asking them to hunt is no issue, but to have them manage…

Tsk, the thought alone of how they might mess things up is unbearable.”

“Isn’t that simple?”

Murphy, who had wrapped himself up like a mummy to walk under the sunlight, pulled up a chair and sat in front of President Natalie.

He spread his hands and said:

“Currently, the only thing hindering the establishment of the magnificent Avalon Cathedral is funds.

I’m sure you’ve made quite a profit selling your Treasure Bead plugins, but that amount of money wouldn’t be enough to complete the Church.

You can tell Old Eugene that the Warrior Guild he’s managing will need to pay taxes to the administrative office every month.

I can arrange for Milian to allocate a portion of that to the Avalon Church.

The more prosperous the Warrior’s Guild, the more taxes and management fees you collect each month.

I believe that Master Eugene, dedicated to the Church’s reconstruction, won’t refuse.

Of course, you’re right.

I didn’t come here just for these issues.

There is a rather important matter I need to discuss with you!”

Murphy paused for a moment before continuing to speak to Natalie:

“Regarding the reward items for the end-of-event settlement for my Warriors, according to the rules I set previously, you will need to distribute at least 300 Hunter keys, to be precise, 327.

This means you will have to prepare 327 uniquely designed Hunting Treasure Chests and the rewards to be placed inside them.

The extra rewards for the top ten don’t need your concern, as Cui Si and I have already prepared them.

However, it seems like there’s been no movement on your end, and with only four hours left until the settlement, are you not going to spring into action?

Do you need my Warriors to start a riot over not receiving their rewards to realize the severity of the issue?”

“How can you slander me so!”

Natalie was immediately displeased.

Now, as the current leader of the once White Oak Battle Group, she couldn’t afford to be careless on a matter that affected the reputation of the Witch Hunters.

She pointed to a large wooden warehouse outside the tent she was in and said:

“I have already collected the Avalon Church-themed equipment, weapons, and consumables according to your request, ready to distribute to them when they come.”

“So you plan to complete this reward so ordinarily?

So you’ve forgotten all about what I reminded you before, have you?”

Murphy was even less satisfied.

He tapped the table and said:

“Ceremonial feeling!

How many times do I have to emphasize the word ‘ceremonial feeling’ before you managers understand it?

This isn’t as simple as dishing out food in a cafeteria!

You must make my Warriors feel respected for their commitment and provide them with sufficient enjoyment.

Why do you think I asked you to prepare Treasure Chests and keys?

Isn’t it precisely to add a touch of luck when they receive their rewards, to make them happy?

Natalie, you hardly understand the primal impulse towards ‘gambling’ that exists in the thoughts of all living beings.

Seems like you’ve been a good child from an early age and never came across such things.

But you still have a bit of time left, so hurry up and prepare the chests and keys!

I want you to place the rewards you’ve prepared into those 327 chests in a completely random manner, then scramble them up, and then distribute the corresponding keys to my Warriors.

Afterward, you can observe their reactions from the side.

I trust, with your wisdom, you will understand why I am making you do this.

Does creating 327 Avalon Church-style chests pose any difficulty for you in three and a half hours?”

“That’s very simple, but I still think you are making an unnecessary fuss.”

The Grey-haired Demon Hunting Princess retorted.

She pulled out a seed from her Psychic package, whispered a few prayers and threw it to the ground.

Under the catalyst of Natural Psychic Power, the seeds took root as soon as they hit the soil, and in a matter of seconds, vines and branches rapidly intertwined to form a “chest” out of vines and wood right in front of Murphy.
