Chapter 1018: 345. Transylvania Scholarship Program for Government-Sponsored Students?_3

"But what about transportation?"

With concern, Milian said,

"The Ligurian Peninsula has a steam train that runs across the entire region, but that place doesn’t border Transylvania. To transfer from the Kato area, we must negotiate with the Golden Flower Kingdom in advance. Even though the Wolf Poison Clan is in charge there now, given the confrontation between the Blood Vulture and Wolf Poison, I doubt Old Edward would easily relent."

"Heh, what does his willingness to relent have to do with us? Does Blood Vulture require Wolf Poison’s consent to act?"

With a sneer, Murphy said,

"My warriors could crush the Grey Claw Faction just as they could shatter the vampires he has in the Kato area. You needn’t worry about these things, just focus on making arrangements and plans.

I’ll find a way to deal with the Kato area’s issues.

If all else fails, we can take Lake Xiuerpes and go up the Kaderman River, which leads right to the industrial zone of the Andma Hills.

If I’m not mistaken, didn’t Transylvania own one-third of that lake’s area after the previous border demarcation with the Golden Flower Kingdom?"

"That was before the Ten Years’ War."

Milian shook her head and said,

"The border isn’t like that anymore, but I know you won’t give in on such matters, so I will make the arrangements as soon as possible. But Murphy... with the Black Disaster upon us, don’t take risks!"

"No, Milian, you still don’t quite understand the Black Disaster. Precisely because it’s upon us, we need to settle this matter ASAP."

Narrowing his eyes, Murphy said,

"Once the Black Disaster ends, once Transylvania loses its ’strategic value’ in the eyes of the kings, it won’t be so easy to deal with these border issues anymore.

This is the best window of opportunity.

Go on with your tasks for now.

I need to think some more. Don’t worry about the warriors’ movements; I will bring them under control soon."

"Mm."

Milian nodded and left the office, tired. Minutes later, at Murphy’s spiritual energy call, the Grand Duke of Cui Si pushed open his door.

She immediately saw a map of the Kato area on the wall and the clever Cui Si instantly grasped Murphy’s thoughts.

She said,

"You want to snatch a piece of meat from Old Edward’s mouth? That’s going to be tough."

Murphy didn’t answer immediately. He took a piece of charcoal and drew a large circle over the area where the Kato area, Transylvania, and the Ligurian Peninsula intersected. He then turned to Cui Si and said,

"I just need this bordering section. I have no interest in other parts of the Kato area, at least not for now. Cui Si, I need your wisdom. Do you have a feasible way to help us accomplish this?"

"I’m not a god, how can I immediately provide a solution?"

Cui Si rolled her adorable eyes, stepped forward, and looked at the map. After several seconds of silence, she shook her head and said,

"If you can see the value here, Old Edward certainly can too. In fact, I think his exchange of the underground rights of the Kato area from King Louis, using loyalty as the price, might well be intended to extend his reach into the Ligurian Peninsula and extract sufficient benefits from it.

From this perspective, asking that old rogue to give up here is akin to declaring war on him...

But perhaps we can consider a different approach."

Cui Si stepped back with her arms crossed and said,

"If this region were part of the Black Disaster Line, I mean, if it could be controlled by a force friendly to us and strong enough to oppose the Wolf Poison Clan, then we could gain some initiative.

Do you understand who I’m suggesting?"

"Mm."

Muphy stretched out his hand and, under Cui Si’s gaze, drew a line on the map, nodding,

"The Cape Family... to be precise, Major Fraser, the commander of the military observation mission stationed in Transylvania by the Golden Flower Kingdom.

He should have a command post that ensures safety and can exert significant pressure on the Black Disaster Battlefront.

The line from Kerem Fortress through the Polluted Swamp straight to Lake Xiuerpes could form a solid defense line, keeping the Jackal and Wolf People out of Transylvania and off the central part of the continent.

Cui Si!

You are simply a genius."

"Tsk, I’ve always been one,"

Cui Si snorted, allowing Murphy to take her slender waist. Then in a soft voice, she said to Murphy,

"Your warriors are discussing setting up a large-scale Slave Hunting Team on the forums. I’m guessing you wouldn’t let them go ahead with this, right?

Their moral baseline shouldn’t fall so quickly, and the situation isn’t so dire yet."

"I’ll stop them, but I can’t forcibly restrain them and dictate what they must do. That would make them lose the fun and anticipation of the game."

Murphy looked away from the map and leaned down to kiss Cui Si on the forehead, whispering,

"I need to find a way to shift their focus from the slave hunting issue and provide some positive guidance or an event exciting enough to draw most people’s attention. It must be interesting and rewarding enough to be satisfying, certainly not less appealing than plundering slaves.

I think it’s time for our two-person development team to give a bonus to our hardworking warriors. And most conveniently, we have just the thing at hand to meet all these requirements.

Yes!

It’s time to start the first ’Transylvania Boxing Champion Free-for-All’."
