Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology

While they were talking, the silver wolf came back at lightning speed.

Just now it found a dark priest and started biting him, then it held a bloody and dying dark priest in its mouth and threw him to the ground.

Then, several strong scouts quickly stepped forward and ruthlessly dragged the shadow priest out from the pile of corpses.

One of the scouts was holding an exquisite recurve bow, the bowstring was taut, and the arrow was flashing with cold light.

He aimed at the defenseless Dark Priest, loosened his fingers without hesitation, and the sharp arrow flew out of the bow, instantly piercing through the Dark Priest's body.

However, this was just the beginning. More arrows poured down like a rainstorm, mercilessly shooting at the shadow priest, turning him into a veritable "hedgehog".

Faced with such cruel punishment, the Dark Priest did not dare to move an inch from beginning to end. He could only watch himself endure the tremendous pain until the last moment of his life.

Seeing this, Kashin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, thinking to himself:

"I didn't expect that they could get rid of two shadow priests so easily. It seems that they are not difficult to deal with. This action is enough to make the church feel terrified. If they still want to repeat the same trick in Puma Sai, it is simply a foolish dream!"

At this time, Jean Toque on the side suddenly said:

"Captain, we are seriously short of manpower right now, why don't we allow polygamy?

Otherwise, if things continue like this, the population will decrease, and even after a few decades, it will be difficult to restore the prosperity of the past, and the city may be completely abandoned!"

Hearing this, Kashin first smiled bitterly, then shook his head and said:

"Absolutely not! I have studied some books and writings related to magicians, which clearly mentioned that polygamy will cause a series of serious problems.

Although it is difficult for me to elaborate on the specific principles in detail given my level of knowledge, what is certain is that there must be some deep logical relationship behind it.

So no matter what, the rules must not be changed or broken at will. In fact, I have already found a solution to this problem - let Rupert go abroad to purchase a group of people to supplement the labor force. In this way, the current dilemma can be easily solved...

Soldiers in the castle no longer follow military rules. Anyone who is sixteen years old and has served in the army for one year can marry. Let's give them a marriage subsidy! Go and have children for me.

In addition, female soldiers were recruited and trained. Firstly, the ladies needed female soldiers to serve them, and secondly, there were a large number of girls who were unmarried, so the girls’ excess energy would not cause trouble and corrupt morals.

The castle trains a group of female soldiers just to restrain them. It will be very difficult for us to recruit soldiers in the future. Female soldiers are also a part of the military force. They are engaged in crossbowmen and trained to be city defenders.

In the future, they will definitely marry soldiers, which will help stabilize the morale of the army. That’s all I can think of for now! In short, every time they have one more child, the girls will have made contributions to Shadowmoon City, and they will be treated well and stabilized for life…”

When the plague swept through Shadowmoon City like a ferocious beast, an extremely obvious and worrying phenomenon emerged:

Women's vitality is obviously stronger than men's, and the ratio of strength and weakness is simply shocking and completely unbalanced.

In this cruel plague, the huge difference in survival ability between men and women may be the result of multiple factors.

Or women's body functions may be more adaptable in some ways; for example, women's immune systems may have unique advantages in fighting plague germs.

This may be related to the hormone levels in women's bodies. The regulatory effect of hormones may enable women's bodies to make more effective immune responses when facing disease invasion.

In terms of living habits, there are also differences between men and women in daily hygiene habits, social behaviors, etc. These differences may be magnified during the spread of the plague, thereby affecting the infection rate and survival ability of men and women.

This imbalance not only reflects the different impacts of the plague on men and women, but also indicates that Shadowmoon City faces a huge risk of severe damage to its population structure in the future.

After witnessing this situation and the series of decisions made by Captain Kashin, Tok couldn't help but feel sincere admiration for the captain's actions.

In order to save Shadowmoon City from its population crisis, Captain Kashen came up with a bold and challenging plan - sending magicians out to traffic people.

Although this plan seems a bit unorthodox, it is a helpless but necessary choice given the desperate situation Shadowmoon City is currently in.

However, the transmission costs involved behind this plan are huge.

According to the current situation, if civilians are transported to a nearby place, the transmission fee alone will be 4,000 magic coins. According to the exchange rate between magic coins and gold coins, this means a minimum of 40,000 gold coins per person.

If you want to buy 10,000 men, the transportation fee alone will start at 400 million gold coins.

Such a high cost is an astronomical figure that is almost unbearable for any city or force.

Moreover, it is impossible for neighboring countries to reach a deal due to their own interests or hostile relations.

After all, there are many unforeseen risks in the transmission process, and such a large-scale population export will inevitably have an impact on the country's population structure and social stability.

So if the distance is farther, the transmission cost is simply incalculable, like a bottomless black hole.

In other words, Sheldon Castle has such strong power to carry out this seemingly crazy plan.

Sheldon Castle has always been famous for its strong strength and unique style of doing things in the entire Shadowmoon City area. It has always been straightforward and simple, but this method is absolutely effective in dealing with the current emergency.

Once they have purchased these 10,000 men, they will not delay at all and will let these men enter the bridal chamber with local girls one by one within one day, with the aim of letting them have offspring as soon as possible.

This is a population growth strategy under extreme crisis. When time is tight, this method of rapidly increasing population, although primitive, is the most direct and effective.

The birth of each new life may bring new hope to Shadowmoon City. It is of vital importance from many aspects, such as supplementing the labor force and inheriting the family bloodline.

After receiving instructions from Captain Kashin, Jean Tok descended from the rooftop and prepared to return to the castle with his soldiers.

He was very clear about the tasks he needed to perform, and he also believed in the captain's grasp of the overall situation.

However, Captain Kashin was still lying alone in the snow on the roof, motionless. He was like an ice sculpture, firmly watching over the area.

Captain Kashen relied on his intuition and determined that the Dark Priest had not been completely eliminated, so he insisted on waiting for the Dark Priest to appear in this cold and dangerous place.

His intuition was not groundless. In many previous battles and crisis management, his intuition often enabled him to detect hidden dangers in advance.

But Tok had a different view on this. He could only shake his head helplessly. In his opinion, the villagers had already started to deal with the bodies, and the whole village seemed to be in good order under the supervision of the mercenary association.

There should be no more shadow priests, which is a foolproof situation. But the captain still sticks to his belief, staring at this area stubbornly, not letting go of any possible danger.

Captain Kashen's persistence is based on his high sense of responsibility for the safety of Shadowmoon City. Even if there is only a trace of possible threat, he will eliminate it in the bud to ensure the long-term stability of the city.
