Chapter 446: Chapter 368: You Are Not Loyal Enough! Chapter 446: Chapter 368: You Are Not Loyal Enough! “Huff, huff…”
“Damn, that NPC was really scary just now. That’s the first ti I’ve seen such exaggerated fla damage.”
“She looked like a girl of fifteen or sixteen, but she almost wiped out all the elite players who passed the trial!”
“But, thank goodness…”
The player from the [Royalty] guild pulled out the ring clenched in his palm, blew on it, and wiped it clean. His eyes were red, filled with excitent and elation.
“Got my precious.”
“Heh heh, the first piece of purple equipnt in the whole server, I’m gonna be rich now!”
“I wonder how much our guild leader, Tyrant, will spend this ti. Maybe I can live without worrying about food and clothes!”
He was already lost in pleasant daydreams, unable to extricate himself.
After all, the [Royalty] guild had such precedents.
During the beta, Tyrant once spent a hundred thousand dollars to buy a full set of rare equipnt from a mber.
“Swoosh—”
Suddenly, he felt a wave of scorching heat from behind, and his clothes caught fire.
“No, no way…”
A bad feeling rose in his heart.
He trembled as he turned around, and his expression imdiately turned grim.
He saw that a red-haired, golden-eyed girl crossed through space, floating mid-air, looking down at him. Her fla-like long hair danced wildly in the air.
Flas swirled around her, ashes fluttered in the air.
Her gaze was unmistakable.
“His Majesty Cassius said…”
“Theft is strictly prohibited within the empire.”
The player mumbled in disbelief, “How can this NPC have such a wide range of activity…”
“She, she should be the boss of the Tower of Everfla! How can she appear here!”
But for the money he was about to get, the [Royalty] player went all out.
He clutched the ring tightly, his eyes bloodshot, veins bulging on his forehead, and argued without hesitation:
“Don’t co any closer!”
“This isn’t stealing at all!”
“Can what players do be called stealing? Where’s your administrator? I want to file a complaint for consur deception!”
Misha coldly looked down at him, the flas around her growing more intense, almost forming a vortex.
Her lips moved slightly.
“Unforgivable sin.”
“Boom!”
The next mont, ferocious flas surged out like a giant devouring serpent, completely consuming the player.
When the flas dissipated, a small pile of ashes appeared on the ground, blown into the air by a light breeze, leaving only a shiny golden ring—precisely the [Ring of the Nobility of the Fire Giants].
“Hmph, clueless fool.”
“Such greedy and ignorant individuals, no better than the Northern Nobility, dreaming of becoming a Dragon Pact Warlock? Keep dreaming!”
Misha gestured, and the precious ring was enveloped in flas, flying into her palm.
The girl extended her hand again, tearing space apart with flas, reappearing within the Tower of Everfla.
Misha, holding the ring, softly said, “The sinner has been duly punished.”
“Take this as a warning.”
“Furthermore… I am Misha, a Contract Sorcerer under the great His Majesty Cassius, and his proxy in the Tower of Everfla.”
“Yes, ma’am!”
“We will definitely comply with orders!”
Seeing the plight of the thieves, the remaining players quickly responded.
But they were also relieved.
“Indeed, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. That was a trap!”
“Yeah, good thing I didn’t go for the equipnt.”
“More like you couldn’t get it.”
“Wow, Dragon Pact Warlocks are so strong, this damage is absurd.”
“Heh heh, I knew sothing was off. Good thing I didn’t lose my head just now. I’m about to advance!”
“Yeah, such a powerful occupation is soon going to be ours!”
The players began to imagine a bright future. Such a powerful occupation could help them soar directly, right?
Under the expectant gazes of everyone, Misha looked around and then spoke again.
“As you can see, Dragon Pact Warlocks possess great strength, but all of this cos from the supre His Majesty Cassius.”
“Every Dragon Pact Warlock is his proxy and servant, fortunate to receive the blessings of the great Red Dragon.”
Flas ignited at her fingertips.
“For us, the most important thing is absolute loyalty.”
Among the players, Sumr Night Autumn Rain smiled with joy.
She guessed right!
Indeed, as a contractor, loyalty was a must! And this was also characteristic of occupations in the Ashen Empire series.
For instance, there were detailed data collected about the Dragon Sanctuary Holy Knights, showing that “Cassius Fan Club” mbers did more damage than regular players.
Misha’s speech continued, she raised her slender hand, seemingly pointing to everyone.
“So…”
The players eagerly waited.
“You are all eliminated, except for those three.”
The players were struck as if by lightning, looking at each other, finding only [Sumr Night Autumn Rain], [Art is Explosion], and [Loving the Dragon Like the Wind] had golden flas above their heads.
They started shouting.
“Why!”
“Why!”
“This isn’t fair! Do it again!”
“I didn’t participate in the theft! I passed the trial!”
“Yes, why aren’t we allowed to pass! We didn’t do anything wrong!”
“What about those three, do they have special privileges?”
The remaining dozen players clamored, they had worked hard to pass the trial, thinking they were about to succeed, only to hear such terrible news.
They naturally felt indignant and unfairly treated.
Misha, however, emotionlessly asked, “Are you sure you did nothing wrong?”
“Not being loyal enough to His Majesty Cassius is your mistake.”
“Huh?”
The players were stunned.
But Misha seriously continued, “In the chaos just now, only these three Starfallen paid respect to His Majesty’s statue without being distracted.”
“And you, though not participating in theft, rely stood by and watched.”
“You even refused to kneel before His Majesty Cassius’s statue!”
“This…”
What a load of crap!
Misha’s “soul interrogation” left them speechless.
The eliminated players felt indignant and unfair, being eliminated because of “not being loyal enough”!
So were especially regretful, holding their chests, feeling heartache.
Just now, they watched as Sumr Night Autumn Rain and the other two kneeled before Cassius’s statue, thinking it was rely fan club fanaticism.
If they had kneeled too, wouldn’t they have advanced?
But…
Maybe there’s still a chance?
Thinking this, they decided to try one more ti.
“His Majesty Cassius!”
Imdiately, a few players simultaneously slid and kneeled before Cassius’s statue, wailing in desperate voices, creating a rather comical scene.
“Ma’am, don’t eliminate ! I’m very loyal!”
“Long live His Majesty Cassius!”
“His Imperial Majesty is our eternal sun!”
The other players, stunned for a mont, also hurriedly followed suit, fearing they were late in kneeling this ti.
“For the great Red Dragon’s blueprint!”
“We can never repay His Majesty Cassius’s kindness!”
“The Ashen Empire’s Emperor above!”
But their actions did not move the Dragon Pact Warlock.
Misha shook her head, feeling these people were disgraceful, further desecrating His Majesty Cassius.
“Leave this place.”
“I see no loyalty in your eyes, only greed and desire for power. You… are unworthy of being Dragon Pact Warlocks.”
Misha coldly said, flas igniting in her hand again.
“Get out.”
Under the threat of flas, the players reluctantly and tearfully left.
“And you… co with .”
“Your loyalty has passed my test. I will take you to see His Majesty.”
Imdiately, the remaining three players beca extrely excited.
Not only could they successfully advance, but they also had the chance to et Cassius.
In the current Ashen Empire, this was an extrely valuable opportunity!
In the old beta, players could et Cassius by exchanging a few Gold Coins for a [Mysterious Invitation], seeing him as a mysterious rchant.
But now, the ever-greater Emperor lived in the Steel Dragonwing Palace all year round, difficult to et even with countless Gold Coins.
