My Players Are So Fierce

Chapter 2725 -909: Given the Situation, Let’s Go All Out, My Friend!

“This… alright, I have no objections to that reasoning. After the Black Disaster is over, I will try to share the Dragon knights’ crafting technique with your barbarian followers.”

Murphy smoothly changed the subject and said:

“But since you’re already here, why not also help me with something? Friendship comes from mutual favor exchanges, after all.”

“But the previous matter was your way of repaying the favor you owed me. Now if I help you again, doesn’t that mean you’ll owe me another favor?”

The Fury said arrogantly:

“What are you going to offer in return for this favor?”

“I haven’t even restricted you from preaching among my Undying Spirits, Fury. Your church is currently the fastest-growing force among the foreigners.”

Murphy responded somewhat angrily:

“According to your theory of ‘Whoever profits owes a favor,’ don’t you also owe me a favor?”

“I have never preached among your followers, Murphy!”

Vam shamelessly and cunningly retorted:

“I was merely attracted by their bravery. Watching them fight is always entertaining. Whenever I am delighted, I reward them with a bit of power. My Berserker Priests have never argued over doctrines with them, have they?

Though the Berserker Temple has establishments on your land, it has never actively recruited believers.

How can that be called proselytizing?

At most, it’s an admiration between strong ones!

You, with your mastery in trickery and power politics, clearly cannot understand that pure and beautiful anger within warriors, so you never were a good warrior.”

“How about this? I now forbid the dissemination of Vam’s faith in my territory and kick out those who call you ‘Old Vam’ all day, forbidding them to ever return to this world?”

Murphy, not wanting to argue with a wandering Divine Spirit at this time, directly said:

“Stop playing word games, Fury! Your way of thinking isn’t suited for this game of strategy, and we both know quibbling over these details is pointless. You’ve lost your Divine Kingdom and become a wandering spirit. After this slaughter, you’ll need to find a place to settle down, lick your wounds, and plot your resurgence.

We can help each other; we have common enemies. No matter how you view me, it doesn’t change the fact that we need each other right now.

So I propose cooperation. You help me draw fire on that battlefield so those Chaos Shadows don’t interrupt what I need to do next. Once my matters are settled, we can meet and thoroughly discuss the subsequent issues. How does that sound?

You’re not exactly busy, and even if you don’t help me, you’ll still unleash your wrath among those Subspace Demons.

Of course, if you insist on counting this as a favor, then so be it.”

“Fine, I’m willing to help! As you said, even without you, I’d still go on a rampage here before executing a strategic retreat. Helping you on the side can’t hurt, consider it a reward for the amusement brought to me by those otherworldly jokers.”

Vam readily agreed with a style befitting a warrior, but then he shifted the topic, asking:

“But you’re going after Su’s divine essence? You, being so weak, can actually perceive such a thing, and I know you’re not the kind to gamble everything on an adventure, so you have confidence… It’s truly amazing. Is this the power of Administrator Alpha?”

“What? You want that thing?”

Murphy teased:

“Actually, it’s not impossible. After all, Old Su Head probably won’t be able to use it, and you, as a God of Faith who values strength, wanting to grow stronger with an artificial divine essence is understandable, and it even comes with a Divine Kingdom, just right to fill your current weakness…”

“Have you said enough? Don’t use your thinking to probe a god’s mind, coward Murphy!”

Vam cut off Murphy’s speculation wildly, sneering:

“What kind of fool actively seeks a cage that binds the present and future? The sentinels have disguised the leash with power, but it doesn’t change its inherently foolish nature.

To seize that creator’s gift means betting oneself in this never-ending war. However, a true warrior is one who fully controls themselves in battle, while those forced into battle without choice of retreat are merely slaves!

Don’t forget where I come from!

Though I don’t see myself as having a more direct connection to that failure, Sulguk, even I am not foolish enough to fall into the same trap twice.

Anyone who wants it can have it. I don’t need that thing to achieve divinity! Conversely, a coward needing the creator’s pity to claim divinity perhaps never had the right to pursue godhood.

I’m just warning you, Murphy.

To put it in your words, it’s advice given under the pressure of a common enemy alliance.

Never use it!

That thing may appear appealing, but while bringing power, it also binds you. No matter how pretty the leash, it never changes its enslaving nature. It can give you a strong lower bound but will also lock your upper limit.

If you must choose a target, learn from Ao.

Know why, back when the frontier contract was signed, Ao chose the seemingly insignificant Purification Power?

Ha, let me tell you a secret only the Divine Spirits know.
