Chapter 884 257: Shadow Demon or Shadow Clan? The Human True God of the Pharmacist Domain (10K)
As soon as this news came out, the entire Mage World was almost boiling.
For so many years, there has never been a situation where so many Magic Monarchs stood for one person at the same time.
In the past, there have been instances where a large number of Magic Monarchs jointly supported the events of Mage Academia's festival, but anyone with eyes knew these Magic Monarchs from the Bell Federation were standing for that Viscount Helois.
Now that the veil has been torn between the Holy Briania and the Bell Federation, with war imminent, coming forth at this time clearly has another purpose.
Kael's identity is special, but this special status doesn't carry much weight in the Federation's Mage World. What truly compels them to step forward is Kael's contribution to Mage Academia.
This status is the foundation that makes them willing to step forward.
Additionally, the Magic Monarchs of the Bell Federation are all Human, and everyone has seen the contribution these years of the Bell Federation to elevating the status of the entire Human community on the Divine Continent.
The Magic Monarchs indeed recognize the Federation, and one might even say they take pride in it.
Although many nations extend warm invitations to Magic Monarchs from other countries, they themselves clearly understand that the many privileges granted to the Humans' Magic Monarchs arise not just because of their strength but also due to the racial benefit stemming from the growth of the entire Human race's power.
Now, someone wants to destroy the community they rely on for survival. Even with the great power of the Holy Briania, there's still no way to stop them from standing up.
After all, they... are ultimately Human!
...
The course of events exceeded the expectations of many mages by far.
This festival is widely publicized, and news spread quickly, even attracting the attention of certain groups.
[Location: Bell Federation, Lancaster Territory, Titan Town, inside a tavern]
A sorceress stood in front of the tavern's information board, intently looking at the information about the [Mage Festival] recorded on the column, unable to resist turning to look at the female spell-sword warrior with an alloy lance next to her.
"Xiao You, let's find a way to sneak in and take a look!"
The speaker was Nasilia, a war mage player.
The spell-sword warrior beside her was none other than Kongshan Yiyou, who often traveled with Nasilia.
After seeing the news, Kongshan Yiyou seemed indifferent, flicking her finger on her gun with a nonchalant expression as she said:
"Are you so sure we can sneak in? Don't forget that lately, the natives on this continent have become increasingly hostile to us players."
Nasilia sighed, knowing that what Kongshan Yiyou said was true.
Perhaps because the disturbances caused by players have grown bigger recently, especially those players who don't like to follow the rules, causing atrocious effects in areas outside the Duchy of Englan and even the Federation.
Some players, eager to quickly capitalize on the wealth gained in-game, have begun to take any task they encounter.
For example, to quickly complete tasks, some players resorted to "scalping" tactics towards natives, directly beheading those unwilling to give them tasks, thus forcing some ordinary natives to surrender quickly-completed tasks.
"No task? Then die!"
Once such malicious incidents were revealed, the game forum was in complete uproar.
Some believed that despite being NPCs in a game, such chaotic and evil actions are still despicable behavior.
However, many players argued that it's just a game, and actions within the game shouldn't be judged by real-world standards. Even if they treat NPCs like stinky canned food, exploit them to death in a factory, or engage in street brawls, it's not excessive behavior.
After all, they wouldn't do such things in reality.
Others, as in past lives, applied flexible standards.
If it were ordinary players, they could be as they please.
But if it's club players, they're held to higher moral standards.
This phenomenon was jokingly referred to as Schrödinger's moral standards.
However, regardless of opinions, since someone has opened this example, it means everything will spiral further into a worse direction.
Once someone sees that this behavior can better yield benefits, people will quickly follow suit.
Moreover, Kongshan Yiyou knows the situation has become very serious, with some even starting to film scenes of slaughtering natives to gain massive traffic on forums.
In a short time, such profit-driven behavior has become a trend among many players.
Originally, players were already receiving mixed reviews from native communities.
After all, Kongshan Yiyou knows that, according to the setting, they should be the divine children of Shangdiya, beings associated with deities, so for many ordinary people on the continent, they are understandably intimidating.
Not to mention the fact that the players' leading ranks have quietly stepped into the Extraordinary Rank.
The Extraordinary Stage is completely different from previous stages; in the current era, the Extraordinary Rank is definitely a combat strength level that elite military corps of various nations can reach.
However, all of this success, in the face of the players' ability to level up quickly by fighting monsters, has almost no bottleneck for breakthroughs.
