I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means Chapter 417: 341 The Chaos of Luminous Stone City

Chapter 417: Chapter 341 The Chaos of Luminous Stone City

In Luminous Stone City,

Lis, clad in a black cloak from head to toe, walked along a secluded path in Luminous Stone City.

Although the Boditch Kingdom’s defenses around Luminous Stone City were extrely tight at the mont, Lis had easily infiltrated the city.

The Royal Mage Corps had set up arrays that disrupted space transmission, preventing Lis from teleporting large forces from Feis Kingdom into Luminous Stone City, but it was still no problem for one person.

After breaking through to the Golden Rank, Lis found that his control power over Magic Power and various Magic Elents had greatly improved. Many operations that were previously impossible or barely manageable had now beco much easier for him.

Lis chose to travel by carriage from the East Coast to Luminous Stone City so that he would have enough ti to familiarize himself with and master the new powers he had acquired.

...

Unlike other Professionals, Lis not only improved his Mage abilities but also made leapfrogging progress in other professional skills, requiring more ti for integration and mastery.

However, by now, he had more or less achieved this.

As he strolled through the streets of Luminous Stone City, Lis took in the sights of the capital of the Boditch Kingdom.

As the oldest city in the Boditch Kingdom’s history, most of Luminous Stone City’s buildings were made of stone sourced from the nearby Luminous Stone Mountain. This stone, with its hint of gold, was greatly favored by the Boditch Royal Family, giving the city a golden glow in the sunlight that could even seem sowhat holy from a distance.

Yet outward opulence couldn’t cover the blackness and filth in the shadows; below the hedonistic lives of the upper-class Nobles lay the oppressive and exploitative existence endured by the common people.

Especially since the outbreak of war with Feis Kingdom, as the front lines continued to fall back to the point where the flas of war had reached the outskirts of Luminous Stone City, adding a touch of madness and impatience to the city’s atmosphere.

During his walk, Lis saw that the Noble District still maintained an apparent peace, but the commoners’ district was near the brink of utter chaos.

The King and the Nobles directed soldiers to wantonly carry out their will in the commoners’ district. They dared not provoke those with Extraordinary professions, but for ordinary people, it was a disaster.

Their food was confiscated, and adult n were taken away to serve in the servant army, tasked with transporting materials and building fortifications for the front lines, and sotis they were simply wasted as cannon fodder on the battlefield.

So of the Nobles were well aware that the Boditch Kingdom’s demise was inevitable and were preparing their escape routes, but many smaller Nobles had plunged into a final frenzy, lavishing and enjoying these last monts of splendor.

If this was the case above, then how could the soldiers in the army maintain strict discipline? The darkness in human nature had no bounds at this mont, and every day atrocities beyond description were happening in the Lower City District.

“This really sucks!”

[Invincible Scoundrel] slamd his cup on the table, venting his dissatisfaction and anger.

This was the rcenary tavern in Luminous Stone City; since most of the rcenaries were Extraordinary Professionals, the kingdom’s army did not violate this place, which remained the sa as before the war.

At the sa ti, the Boditch Royal Family finally stopped being miserly, generously offering large bounties to entrust rcenaries with joining the battle on the front lines, carrying out various tasks such as reconnaissance and behind-the-lines sabotage.

With Experience Points and Gold Coins rewarding these tasks rather handsoly, a number of players also joined in.

Half a year had passed since the “Divine Revelation” ga launched, and as ti progressed, the ga’s popularity did not drop but kept climbing.

The quality of other gas on the market was simply not on par with “Divine Revelation,” leading to a continuous flow of players leaving other gas, with more and more becoming Divine Revelation People.

As the main storyline 1.0 was coming to an end, so players had already reached the Level cap of 30.

However, this didn’t an that “Divine Revelation” had lost its appeal. Its high degree of freedom offered players countless choices, and there was no worry about getting bored with the ga.

[Invincible Scoundrel] was not a player from the launch of the “Divine Revelation” ga. He ca in with the second wave of players, but having achieved financial freedom, he fully exploited the spirit of the “007” hardcore gar, not only reaching Level 30 but also grinding out a set of Bronze Level Equipnt and impressive skills that made him sowhat famous among the players in Luminous Stone City.

“What’s wrong with you again, Lao Jian?”

Sitting opposite [Invincible Scoundrel] was a tall warrior nad [Shrimp and Turnip Stew], who was cleaning his Longsword and glanced at him as he spoke.

“What else could it be? Just had to draw my sword to fight injustice again, right?”

The Hunter [Lonely for Drunkenness] said with a chuckle, pouring ale into his mouth.

“This ga is just too aweso. The quality of the drinks is average, but the taste is just like the real thing. If you drink too much, only your character can’t move; it doesn’t affect real life at all!”

“Is that the reason your wife agreed to let you play?”

[Shrimp and Turnip Stew] teased him, knowing well in real life the three of them were friends and that [Lonely for Drunkenness] was a “wife-loving” good man.

“Just kidding, I’m scared of her! Do I need her permission to play a man’s ga?”

[Lonely for Drunkenness] scoffed with disdain, indicating that was not the case at all.

“Yes, yes, yes, I’ve recorded that!”

[Shrimp and Turnip Stew] nodded vigorously, expressing his wholehearted agreent.
