My Players Are So Fierce

When Stick Brother returned to Blackflame Mountain Pass with his remaining brothers, they were naturally treated like heroes.

Even Lord Hether personally came out to greet them. Of course, the excuse was to welcome soldiers returning victorious; the real reason she was there was to greet The Grand Duke of Triss who had arrived at Blackflame Mountain Pass to “guide the work.”

Although Hether became a Dwarf Vampire while Triss had been fallen and falsely dead for decades, the Dwarf Lord had still heard of the infamous “Crimson Witch.” Now, having finally met her, of course, he wanted to build a relationship.

Naturally, such little secrets of the big figures were not necessary for ordinary Big Head Soldiers to know.

This did not affect Stick Brother and his final 100 brothers from becoming heroes of Blackflame Mountain Pass. Although they managed to guard it for five days, just barely relying on luck and the power of The Grand Duke of Triss, they were indeed the first battalion to complete the guarding mission.

This meant that they already had an advantage in the first round of the death competition, but this advantage was very slight and cannot stabilize the victory.

Now, only eight and a half days remain until the twenty-day deadline. If Brother Meow’s first battalion or Lord Qin’s second battalion performs exceptionally well and also guards for five days, it would mean reaching the “absolute victory value” of eight days. The third battalion would not even get a chance in the second round and would lose the match.

However, Stick Brother had personally experienced the ferocity of the Wolf People’s attacks at this stage. He did not believe that the other two battalions could achieve the miracle of guarding for five days again.

While Stick Brother and his brothers were enjoying their hero’s treatment at Blackflame Mountain Pass, Brother Meow’s first battalion returned to Blood Flag Heights and began their busy work.

“Here! Everyone take fifteen seeds and toss them forward, along the trenches dug by Lord Qin and the fortress dwarf wall created by Stick Brother. Remember to water them!”

Outside the “Circle High Ground Defense Line” created by Stick Brother, Brother Meow was incessantly pulling colorful tree seeds from a large bag and distributing them to his team members.

He shouted:

“Don’t worry about the effects of these seeds. Quickly plant them before the Wolf People arrive. I guarantee that as long as you complete the task, we will definitely hold on until we achieve victory!

Brothers, I’ve calculated!

As long as we guard for four days, we are close to victory. Obviously, if we guard for five days, victory will be assured.

Anyway, the advantage is ours!

Don’t be afraid, we have a huge advantage in this battle, so why are you still standing here?

Go plant them!”

He urged the players to start moving quickly, pulling a delicate wooden box from his bag. He cautiously took out a handful of peculiar seeds with deep green hues and streaks of red spots from inside and handed them to “Lady Shui” beside him, whose face was filled with surprise.

The latter was also a high-ranking member of the Avalon Church. She immediately recognized the origin of these seeds.

“Is this the Man-eating Giant Flower?”

“Lady Shui” exclaimed:

“I have only seen this dangerous thing in the Witch Hunter’s albums. It’s said that once this thing sprouts, it can move freely and constantly spread. Unless its roots are completely destroyed, it will continuously consume the surrounding life. How did you get this?

Isn’t this thing a taboo even within the Avalon Church?”

“Don’t concern yourself with how I got it.”

Brother Meow explained with a pained look on his face:

“Anyway, I have already paid for them. Of course, you will also need to pay a little price… But don’t worry, it’s nothing disgraceful, it’s related to the district of Shadow Valley, we’ll talk about it later.

When planting these seeds, you need to constantly use the Rejuvenation Skill to maintain their vitality, and remember to water them every 30 minutes.

I will handle the planting of the Vampire Vine.”

“You really spared no effort.”

“Lady Shui” sighed as she took the dangerous seeds:

“The competitiveness of you men is truly terrifying. They’re just internal competitions among player groups, yet it drives you to such extents. I even noticed Lord Qin taking his team to rehearse trench warfare tactics at the Maginot Line, it looked just like military training.

It’s said he placed an order with Loyal Brother to have the arsenal produce a batch of barbed wire…”

“You don’t understand.”

Brother Meow waved his hand and said:

“No man is willing to admit being inferior to others, especially in an environment where one can grow freely without suppression. Moreover, healthy internal competition is not harmful to the overall development of players.

Recently, the growth rate of newbies entering the game is much faster than when we started! Some of them have already passed the Black Iron trials after one round, it’s like they’re riding rockets forward.

In my opinion, we should organize more of these exciting activities to effectively help newbies integrate into the Transylvania family quickly.

Hey, hey, hey, don’t touch that!

That’s dangerous, you can’t handle it.”

While he was speaking, “Lady Shui” noticed a wooden seed the size of a baby’s fist at the bottom of Brother Meow’s box, and curiously tried to touch it but was bluntly refused by Brother Meow, who was rather ungentlemanly.

“What’s that?”

“Lady Shui” blinked and asked:

“It looks quite extraordinary.”

“Don’t ask, it’s my secret weapon.”

Brother Meow, carefully placing the box back in his bag, said mysteriously yet joyfully:

“I spent all my money and even took a loan from Old Huo to procure this thing, but it’s not yet time for it to appear. This thing concerns my future Red Knight path, so I absolutely cannot be careless.
