My players are so fierce.

Chapter 373 372. Rebellion, rebellion!Players are revolting!
The last major version update of the closed beta test is indeed shocking, and the mere introduction of the stronghold gameplay is enough to attract attention.

While there are currently only three strongholds available for assignment, and two of them have already been assigned to specific player guilds, isn't there one last one that's still up in the air?

This is not equivalent to the development team releasing news. As long as a certain guild performs well in the following activities, it will also receive a gift of a stronghold.

Although it is not stated clearly, the official meaning is already obvious.

They secretly increased the rewards to increase players' enthusiasm for participating in the "[-]-Day Construction of Transia". This was obviously a bait and switch, but since the rewards were really tempting, everyone tolerated it.

As for the two strongholds that have been assigned so far, most players and the Greedy Party expressed their understanding.

Not to mention the military stronghold "Maginot Line".

At present, apart from the few "professionals with unlimited possibilities" among the players, the group of veterans like Brother Bang are the most suitable for construction and management, and in the context of the impending black disaster, this is of vital importance. If the defense line is left to other players, even if Mr. Murphy is relieved, the players will not be relieved either.

Professional matters should be left to professionals, let alone such a major matter that involves family and life?

But some people are really not happy about the ownership of another stronghold, "Strandstorm".

Black silk under the keyboard: [I understand that Brother Bang can get a military stronghold. He is very professional, but the Riptide Knights have just entered the game, right?Why can they get a stronghold?This is an old hen that can lay golden eggs.

I'm not questioning the development team, but at least I have to give others an explanation, right? 】

Lorewalker Xiao Li: [Ah, yes, yes, you said it can only be obtained by administrative players. You guys are also administrative players, and they made it into the top twenty in the administrative assessment that just ended.

This is not where I am being assigned a job. It would be great if I could have a base of my own. 】

Several administrative players also started making noises in the post.

The "Honorary Knight Taipal" who peeked at the screen was immediately nervous.

He planned to explain the reason. The main reason was that although the Riptide Knights had a large number of people, they had been working hard since they entered the game. They were not very involved in the events surrounding Scarlet Castle, which made their presence a bit low.

Taipal is a smart guy.

He knew that this matter must be explained clearly at the moment, otherwise it would easily leave a bad impression to the onlookers that "the Riptide Knights had gone through the back door".

Although this is indeed the case
But for the RP party, staunch Holy Light believers disdain to play such low-level tricks, and in terms of gameplay, leaving a bad impression on players will not be good for the development of the stronghold.

But before Taipal could edit the explanation document, the administrator jumped out.

Alpha: [In response to everyone's doubts about the ownership of the stronghold, I will release some background data here, which is the number of refugees checked by each guild so far in the 'Transcia Population Census' activity that is still ongoing.

Everyone will understand after taking a look:

银月之傲团：4424、大鸟转转转团：831、猩红锤镰团：1565、猩红野兽团：1823、激流骑士团：9714、石匠兄弟会：558。】

Alpha didn't explain much, but data can't deceive people.

In terms of searching and inspecting refugees alone, the Riptide Knights outnumber all other unions combined. The release of simple data immediately silenced other people, and the guy who just questioned them fell silent.

Ok.

In terms of operation and management alone, these RP parties are indeed professional.

Ashina Female Swordsman: [Holy shit!It’s fake, we have the relationship with the Batasin Chamber of Commerce, and through the power of NPC, we recruited exiled Transians and paid for it.

How can you have so many more people than us?

You guys open it! 】

Honorary Knight Taipal: [First of all, we have a large number of people. 81 people were divided into several teams to conduct continuous refugee inspections in Xiko Territory, and hired mountain guides, which allowed us to find seven large refugee gathering points and 26 A small gathering point.

Secondly, from the time our brave knights landed in Transia to now, our entire group has hardly participated in any other operations, focusing on finding the 'strategic resources' that Governor Murphy needs most for Transia.

That is people!

It is impossible to develop a territory without enough citizens in any case. We had already agreed on this in the tavern before my knights arrived in Transia.

Facts have proved that the initial development strategy formulated by the strategy team of the Riptide Knights for us pioneers is correct. 】

The gentle and graceful Mrs. Shui: [Awesome!Your sneaky and down-to-earth work has really taught other players in the game a good lesson, allowing us to see that an organization with faith and unity can unleash its greatest potential.

@ Board Joystick, Brother Bang, take a good look and learn!
This is the correct example of running a large guild. Only with clear goals and everyone performing their duties can the advantage of numbers be fully utilized and maximized. 】

Onboard happy stick: [Sister Shui is right, I really accepted it this time. 】

Alpha: [So, in the face of the parties’ explanations and the data disclosed by the test team, does anyone else have any objections to the development team’s decision?This post is for discussion. If you have any opinions, please speak up.

As long as they are reasonable opinions and views, we can discuss them rationally. 】

Electronic Succubus' old song: [With this glaring data in front of you, anyone who is not blind knows that the stronghold and territory they get is well deserved.

At present, it seems that there are no real Gong players among us players, so Fa Ge can rest assured.

but
Does the development team still have one stronghold whose authority has not been delegated? 】

Lumina Yanghen: [Brother Qu, what do you mean?Didn’t Brother Miao Miao say that he would take the small elite route?What is the use of your stronghold?

None of you are administrative players, so even if you get it, you won't have time to manage it. 】

Meow Meow King: [Hey, we really don’t have the energy and manpower to invest in stronghold management, but this game is so free and we don’t necessarily have to participate in it.

Sister Lumi, haven't you heard of a management model called 'custodial'?

We can definitely hire civil servants from the administrative office to participate in territorial management, and we can do our own thing, so that we can obtain considerable resources from the stronghold every month to strengthen our armaments and logistics.

What Heisi said just now is correct.

This is the hen that lays golden eggs, who wouldn’t want it? 】

Lumina Yanghen: [Hey, let’s compete!This last piece of territory is decided by our Silver Moon Group! 】

Meow Meow King: [Come just come, who is afraid of whom?I still don't believe that my brothers went to catch slaves after the boxing match. The census will last until the end of the Hundred Days Construction, which is still two months and 17 days away.

Let's compare. 】

Alpha: [Well, you don’t have to plunder the population. You can also get the favor of the Scarlet Castle administrative office by doing other things. As long as it is conducive to increasing the development and prosperity of Transia, Miriam Consul will see it]

Hedong lion roars: [@锛斤拷 uproots the weeping willows, @撀车 happy stick, @婷婷哥, hurry, hurry, hurry!In the Sewer Boxing Championship today, Count Andre of White Mountain appeared in ring No. 3.

The handsome guys who want to take the invitation letter to challenge Mr. Murphy quickly report their fate and come to fight. Brother Cat has already got the recommendation letter from the Earl of White Mountain!

There is no need to defeat him!

According to Brother Cat, you only need to persist under Andre's attack for 3 minutes to get his approval.But this guy is an assassin + magic swordsman. His attack power is very powerful and he can sneak backstab. If your health is lower than 40%, you will be killed instantly!

So before coming here, it's best to buy a potion of psychic vision in Mrs. Trish's alchemy hut, and then put on the thickest armor you can find! 】

Traveler Xiao Zhou: [Wait!What about letters of recommendation?How can you still challenge Lord Murphy?What kind of mission is this?

I do not know how! 】

Sister Pomegranate uprooted the weeping willow: [This is a challenge mission.You have to first get a wolfsbane staff sword and then go to Lord Murphy to challenge him to trigger the mission. It is very difficult and is not recommended for ordinary players to try casually. 】

Morning Frontier Ranger Bacchus: [Ms. Pomegranate, please elaborate on the challenge. We and other foreigners have only been in Transia for a short time and do not know much about the local customs.So, what is the specific content of this challenge? 】

Sister Pomegranate uprooted the weeping willow: [If you want to challenge Lord Murphy, you must first get the approval of the seven most powerful lords under his command. You must get at least four letters of recommendation before you can enter the next step of the task.

The seven lords are 'Monster' Maxim, Hunting Baron Kudel, Countess Fimis of Under Armor, Baroness of Darkness Lady Adele, Earl Andre of White Mountain, Moonlight Bow Knight Leonia and Goshawk Knight. Wallander.

Currently, only Maxim, Kudel and Mrs. Adele can be directly challenged. The remaining four will be randomly refreshed every day on the six stages of the championship.

But as I just said, this task is ridiculously difficult.

The characteristic of Maxim's challenge is that within 1 minute of entering the battle, if your attack intensity and formation are not satisfactory to him, he will go berserk and kill you instantly with the cool execution of the Night Claw.

Lady Adele's dodge is ridiculously high!

She requires you to hit her three times within ten moves. If you fail to do so, you will be killed instantly by a set of silky small combos.

Of course it won't kill you, it will just reduce your health to 1 instantly.

Maxim and Madame Adele belong to the 'gatekeepers' of this task chain. If you can't get their letters of recommendation, then you don't have to think about the rest. 】

Sihu Neng Yuanmu: [Yes, the comprehensive challenge difficulty of these two is the lowest.

I tried to challenge Lord Kudel before. I drank the potion, used the scroll, and asked someone to buff me. I went to challenge with full confidence, but was killed by Lord Kudel in two seconds.

He is not something we can challenge now.

According to my estimation, you have to practice at least one advanced swordsmanship and defense skill to the master level to be able to get a letter of recommendation from Lord Kudel.

Among these four hidden characters, I think the Earl of White Mountain is simpler.

Knight Valander has become the Knight of the Holy Grail. His muscles make me shudder when I look at them. Ms. Lenia, the bow knight, is a long-range player. Whether you can touch her is a problem in a real fight.

Not to mention the eldest lady.

That is the noble Master.
However, there is a special achievement and an out-of-print title after completing this quest chain, and I think this may be the only way we can fight Lord Murphy in the current game. 】

If you are poor: [It sounds like the cost and benefit are not proportional. 】

Ashina Female Swordsman: [It is indeed not proportional. This is obviously a challenge task left by the development team to those fighting madmen. Ordinary players should not spend time running the task chain. It is really not worth it.In addition, I have already received a letter of recommendation from Ms. Leonia~
You don't need to defeat her.

Just challenge her at the shooting competition venue and complete the full ring challenge of 3 targets within 30 minutes without her interference.

However, to challenge Ms. Lenia, you must first win 24 games in the shooting competition, that is, you must be the champion for two days. 】

Invincible Tyrannosaurus Cheche: [Missy’s challenge does not require fighting!Once your favorability with her reaches a certain level, you can trigger the challenge mission.

She will give you three psionic spell models, and you must memorize three models and successfully cast two of them within an hour to get a letter of recommendation.

I personally feel that the reward for this challenge task is the most generous.

Not only can I get a letter of recommendation, but I can also learn skills. I have already received a letter of recommendation and took the opportunity to learn three advanced psychic spells, namely confusion, small thunder cloud lightning and electrostatic field, so I am indeed a psychic. You can be a genius, right?

Ha ha ha ha. 】

Shannan Huxiao: [What is the challenge method of the Valander Knight?Have any brothers with big dicks explored it? 】

Onboard Happy Stick: [Uh, it should be a riding competition with him?

Knight Valander said that our current strength is too weak and it is not challenging to fight with us, but he is interested in competing with us in riding skills.

I haven't tried it.

But one of my brothers has done this before. The basic requirement is to reach the finish line before the Eagle Knight within the specified time. There are also advanced challenges later.

This stuff is hard!
Because according to the Eagle Knight himself, he was born on horseback. I don’t know if he is bragging, but if this is true, then I really admire his mother]

Wan Hao: [So is there such a task chain to challenge the strong?This game does a really good job in this regard. It seems that I have to quickly level up and pass the Black Iron Trial to challenge the local strong players. 】

Star Soul Eagle: [Teacher Li, you must be fine!I guess you might be the first player to defeat Lord Murphy. 】

Lezi Alin: [Wait!Didn't you say that Lord Murphy is just a black iron level Tomb Sword Guard?Why do you have to defeat so many silver-level lords before challenging him?

Could it be said that Lord Murphy's combat power has exceeded the rank limit? 】

After three or five more fights: [Aren’t you talking nonsense?He is a noble 'mainline NPC', so isn't it normal for his combat prowess to be outrageous?

I estimate that the only people in this game who are currently able to stabilize Lord Murphy are Lady Tris and the golden psychotic handsome man Lord Blood Knight who appeared before. 】

Ashina Female Swordsman: [You are all thinking wrong. I have read the content of the challenge mission carefully. I estimate that when the time comes, I won’t be able to defeat Lord Murphy one by one.

It's probably a team battle!
Maybe there will be a limited-time dungeon, which is probably a 40-player challenge mission. Mr. Murphy is a leader-level NPC, so it’s easy to be a group BOSS.

In short, keep working and try to complete this task before the black disaster arrives!

Let's work together to kill the evil Lord Murphy!Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! 】
-
Murphy looked helplessly in his office as he watched his warriors discuss how to defeat him. He could no longer complain about these guys who "bullied their teachers and destroyed their ancestors".

He just silently decided in his heart that when 40 guys with recommendation letters come to challenge him, he must show them some color!
Once the attack starts, I will show no mercy. I will kill the healer first and then kill the DPS. Finally, I will treat the most difficult shield Ts like lame wheelchair monsters and slowly saunter away.

Hey, a BOSS with a high degree of freedom that has no timeline and no fixed skill combination will definitely make these guys realize what cruelty is!

Gee, what is the majesty of the mainline NPC?

Speaking of which, these guys are so enthusiastic about challenge tasks. Should we also open a separate challenge task chain for Tris?
Should we give them a follow-up mission after they pass "Murphy's Martial Arts Trial" so that they can challenge the most noble and powerful person in the Blood Vulture Clan?
Hmm, it sounds so interesting!
With this in mind, he took out a weapon box from his psychic bag and handed it to the summoned Brother Meow Meow with a smile on his face. He said:
"My warrior Meow Meow, the research on the bloodthirsty demon sword you submitted before has finally come to fruition, and I am honored to return it to you.

But it's not complete yet, and you need to keep looking for ways to make it great. "

"Thank you, Lord Murphy!"

Brother Meow Meow, who suddenly received the hidden mission update prompt just now, took the weapon box with joy on his face. When he opened it in front of Mr. Murphy, he saw that the magic sword "Scorpio" he submitted before had a brand new look.

He complained fiercely in his heart:
"I originally thought that this mission was unfinished, but I didn't expect that it would be followed up after this version update. Sure enough, this is a super large hidden mission chain, right? I am indeed Lord Murphy's favorite warrior. Ah, just ask the others who still has this kind of treatment?"
