Chapter 913: 310. The Bloodclaw Clan is a civilized group of Wolf People, we understand that tribute is the advanced form of vassalage!_3

Soon, with the iconic howls of the Earth Wolves tamed by the Jackals, a group of about a dozen Barbarian Soldiers appeared outside the camp.

These genuine "monsters" immediately stirred up excitement among the younger players. The Jackals’ furry bodies and their beast-like appearance with fierce features aligned well with the players’ image of a "wild monster."

Not to mention that anyone who frequented the forums knew that the veteran players had just had a nasty fight with the Jackals in Transylvania!

These were enemies!

"Don’t panic! No attacks allowed!"

Half-Hanging Insurance shouted loudly, telling the players not to initiate an attack, while the NPCs from the Blood Rat Gang finally started to make their move.

As Bloodwing flapped its wings, allowing Miss Doris and her two Vampire Servants, one male and one female, to land among the players, Doris, clad in full Family Guardian leather armor with a Midnight Crimson Cloak draped over her, was clearly an important NPC. Therefore, the younger players all became silent and focused, waiting for her to issue a quest.

"I have been appointed by Sir Morphy, Governor Milian, and Ms. Adel to mediate this ’negotiation,’"

Doris said in her hoarse voice:

"But I need some assistants. Especially those veterans who have personally participated in the assault on Kenbort’s camp as the recipients of the spoils of war, you must also join in the negotiation and strive for benefits for the Crimson Castle as well as your own groups.

I need five people."

"Wait a moment, Ms. Doris."

Dump Truck immediately asked with a frown:

"What about the distribution of the spoils of war? If you’re calling this a ’negotiation,’ then does that mean Sir Morphy and Governor Milian are prepared to accept the long-term presence of these Jackals?"

"You are very astute, Warrior, indeed so,"

Doris nodded and said:

"Before your arrival, the scouts of the Blood Rat Gang had already made contact with the Bloodclaw Clan. Their Chieftain Hog is a Jackal unlike the rest. Put simply, he wishes to be part of the solution needed by this land,

not part of the problem.

This Jackal Tribe Chief hopes to offer tribute to the Crimson Castle in exchange for their long-term residence in the Smugglers’ Forest. Sir Morphy has left the decision to me and to you, since you helped them escape death in Kenbort’s camp, you also have the right to determine their future.

His exact words were ’he trusts in the wisdom and decision of the Warriors; the decision you make will be Sir Morphy’s decision and Transylvania’s response.’

"Ding"

As Doris finished speaking, a quest notification popped up on the player interface of the younger players:

[Side Quest · ’Tribute is the Higher Form of Vassalage’ Triggered!

Quest Description: Chieftain Hog of the Bloodclaw Clan’s Jackals wishes to become part of the Order under Transylvania and the Crimson Castle. For this, he is willing to surrender all the gains the Bloodclaw Clan made in the great battle at the Andma Hills.

However, there is no precedent on the continent for Jackals being tamed by any civilized power, so Sir Morphy has left the choice of whether to accept them up to you.

As he said, Sir Morphy absolutely trusts in the astonishing wisdom of his Warriors.

Please make a choice on behalf of the lords of this land.

Quest Requirements: Participate in negotiations with the Bloodclaw Clan and secure enough benefits for the Crimson Castle!

Or, launch a swift ambush on the approaching Jackal Tribe Chief Hog to declare the impossibility of coexistence between the civilized forces and the Jackal Camp!

Quest Rewards: New Faction ’Bloodclaw Clan’ Reputation initiation or Special Event ’Cleansing Smugglers’ Forest’ trigger.

Alert!

This quest is a story-choosing quest. The decision you make will directly affect certain developments in the Transylvania main storyline, so please choose carefully.

Alert!

The final decision of this quest will be determined by a vote of all quest participants. Currently, there are 214 participants, and the final voting will take place before negotiations begin.]

"Damn, is this what they call ’freedom’? It’s just a common plot choice, but why do I feel such a heavy responsibility?"

The last member of the sports department quartet, Catch Shrimp, complained, scratching his head:

"Why can’t you save the game? I want to pick both options and see the results."

"Miss Doris and the Crimson Castle only exist because we chose to save and stay,"

Bull Bull reminded him from the side:

"There may not be many ’story choices’ in this game, but each one is very important. They indeed directly determine what comes next. As for why it feels like a heavy responsibility..."

Bull Bull crossed his arms, making a pointed comment with a complex emotion:

"Because it’s too real. Our decisions are not just about affecting a CG, but are about real death and the passing of life. The NPCs in this game only have one life, and once they’re dead, that’s it.

It’s just like real life, where there’s no option to save and restart.

So, take it seriously."
