CHAPTER 425: CHAPTER 200 NO ONE UNDERSTANDS PLAYERS BETTER THAN ME

At this moment, Anvis’s real body, along with Xia Ye Yinghuo, was located inside a secret base of the Embers Organization.

Due to the ’task restriction,’ the player girl currently cannot leave a certain range around him, so she could only temporarily scroll through the game forum to relieve her boredom.

Consequently, Anvis was also able to see all kinds of the latest news that players were posting on the forum.

Since he and several other resistance organizations had jointly taken down the Gray Iron Kingdom, the heat on the Yiter Kingdom Federation section of the forum had instantly risen quite a bit.

Many players were discussing this matter heatedly, especially after seeing the rewards revealed by the first batch of players who joined the resistance organizations, which ignited the enthusiasm of many more players.

During this period, according to Anvis’s statistics, the number of players applying to join the Embers each day had increased nearly sixfold compared to before the start of the war.

The situations for the other organizations must be similar.

Of course, these organizations each have different attitudes towards the players.

Due to the highly evident chaotic attributes displayed by the player community, other resistance organizations like Starfire still harbored a wary attitude towards these foreigners.

Some of the most radical senior members even pointed out: all these foreigners are not to be trusted; they have long sold their souls to the demons in Hell, and if they gain power, it would be a disaster.

Therefore, although they valued their strength, the resistance organizations did not dare to casually promote their status within the organizations.

In this regard, only the Embers established by Anvis had a different attitude from the other organizations.

Indeed, players are naturally chaotic and disordered, but Anvis did not care about this; he always had faith in the players’ ability to stir things up.

Perhaps in terms of background power, the Embers Organization couldn’t compare to Starfire or Radiant Sun, but Anvis also had one significant advantage.

—He was richer than the other organizations.

Depending on the income from large-scale arms sales by the Black Ring Commerce Alliance, the treasury left by Emperor Fidels, a portion of resources from Sky City, and the small coffers of Grey Mist, etc.

The resources currently at Anvis’s disposal far exceeded those of other resistance army leaders who only received support from behind-the-scenes forces.

Due to Anvis’s emphasis on players, and given that most of the high-level members of the Embers were secretly under his control,

The organizational attitude of the Embers towards players was the most friendly among the resistance organizations. Not only were benefits better than those in other organizations but also the promotion of status was relatively much easier.

At present, some of the earliest players who joined the Embers Organization had truly entered the management layer, possessing the rights to assign tasks and mobilize entry-level organization members for combat.

Under such temptation, the number of players choosing to join the Embers gradually grew. However, relatively speaking, the number of natives joining the Embers was much less than those joining other organizations.

Knock knock—

At this point, following a series of knocks on the door, a Sixth Rank member of the resistance army entered the room with five or six newly appointed player Commanders.

After sizing up these players, Anvis gestured towards the books placed in the bookshelf to the side and ordered them to move these books to an empty bookshelf on the other end of the study, with a reward of a hundred points of Camp Contribution.

When the task prompt popped up, Anvis glanced at their task list.

There were two spies.

From their nicknames, they seemed to be members of a Guild under Stardust, with a taskbar still hanging with a long list of tasks for transmitting internal messages to multiple organizations of the Federation.

It’s quite normal for this kind of situation to occur, because an insider intimately understands the movements of both sides and will always have an advantage over regular players when it comes to contributing.

After several people completed the task, Anvis casually assigned two of them to the insider-exclusive zone, while the others were normally allocated to their respective areas.

So to speak, there’s no native resident who understands players better than he does.

After arranging today’s players, Anvis glanced at Xia Ye Yinghuo and gave her three Magic Time of free activity, then once again entered the state of observing the Net of Destiny.

During these days, he has been closely monitoring the changes in the Continent Destiny Net.

In his observations, he could vaguely see that the Net of Destiny in the Federation area has shown a very special stalemate state.

Several different strengths are dragging a vast expanse of the Net of Destiny, causing subtle collisions and friction with each other.

The Net of Destiny is woven from the destinies of the countless lives on the continent. Each thread of destiny represents the fate of an existence in the real world.

This collision, manifested in the real world, is the open and covert power struggle among various high-ranking powers. Perhaps there is not much movement on the surface for the time being, but the confrontations that erupt in secret are treacherous enough to alarm anyone.

A single meeting, a banquet, a transaction, or an assassination could suffice to determine the future of countless people in a kingdom.

This is the mode of warfare for the High-Rank Prophets, and what they contend for is the degree of interference in the Net of Destiny.

Most of the time, the battling sides would never show themselves and would completely crush their enemies through manipulation of the greater trends of destiny.

Furthermore, the greater the power related to oneself and the tighter the connection, the larger the destiny feedback the Prophet can receive at the end.

Originally, several forces were maintaining a balance, but with the expansion of the power representing the Mechanical network, the balance is showing a trend of being disrupted.

In his memories from a past life, Anvis vaguely remembered that such a thing had appeared in the Federation. However, unlike this lifetime, the concept of the Mechanical network had not long developed before it was suppressed and erased by some forces.

Thinking about it now, it was probably another gambit by the Prophets and Stargazers.

But in this life, due to his influence, the Stargazers are in retreat, healing, and hence everything has changed.

Taking into account the power he currently holds, which is still somewhat behind the truly top-tier forces, Anvis decides to secretly leave a contingency for himself.

He has been leading people to attack Magic Crystal Mines not for the purposes widely speculated by the outside world— that is, to obtain enough energy to maintain the consumption of the Demon Statues.

With the resources he has excavated at the moment, he actually has enough to keep those Demon Statues fully operational for decades.

His real goal is to conceal special Magic Nodes within those Magic Crystal Mines under the guise of his apparent need for Demon Crystals.

It is a unique magical theory that was once created in the future but has not yet appeared in the present time.

With the assistance of the inherent Magic Power and resonant frequency of the Magic Crystal Mines, it is possible to leave extremely concealed Magic Power marks by using special structures within the Magic Crystal Mines.

The crux of these marks lies in their ’concealment’—the mark will be covered directly by the huge Magic Fluctuation of the Magic Crystal Mine itself, just like writing with ink on black paper.

Its level of concealment is such that if one does not possess the corresponding search Spell skills, even the person who added the mark may not be able to detect it.

Even if a Ninth Rank expert personally inspected it, only a slight increase in Magic activity could be noticed at the location of the mark.

Using these marks, Anvis has been busy setting up Array Nodes in various Magic Crystal Mines recently, preparing them as a countermeasure for critical moments.
