Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord

The new week's Spellcaster Forum exchange meeting started on time when the clock reached nine o'clock in the evening.

Forum members who had the qualifications to attend the meeting and the right to speak almost immediately rushed into the public chat room. It seemed that they had logged into the forum a long time in advance and started waiting.

Everyone knew that the core theme of today's exchange meeting was the recommendation of a new round of members for the Spellcaster Forum. In addition to the earliest batch of old members who "joined for free" in the early days of the forum, this was the third time the forum publicly recruited members.

The first round of member recruitment access rights were very low. Initial members only needed to pay 100 points and a one-to-one guarantee recommendation to successfully invite a corresponding new member to join under the review of the forum administrator.

The recruitment conditions for the second round of members were quite harsh. For some reason, the forum chose to release a small number of three places in the form of bidding auctions. Two of them were taken by forum members who were obviously from the Federation background in the form of high points plus material exchange.

In addition, the creation of the forum magic encyclopedia has gained three precious quotas from the two forum leaders, administrator Turing and observer Neumann, due to the outstanding contribution made by the Federation.

Most of the members who are active in the forum on a daily basis know that the current forum personnel composition system is definitely the first group of members with the Federation background. It is not difficult for such a large organization of spellcasters entrenched in the southern continent to create an overwhelming group in the magic network forum through its own resources and relationships.

The Federation currently has nearly nine members who have officially joined the forum, not including several internal members who do not have trading rights, speaking rights, and voting rights, but can participate in the exchange meeting and assist in the management of the encyclopedia section.

Other members in the forum privately call them "semi-authority members".

The dwarves and elves who privately established the "Southern Minority Alliance" each have two full-authority forum members, and are active in the forum almost in a semi-public capacity.

In addition, the dozen or so independent members mostly come from a powerful spellcaster organization in the seven wizard countries. They do not form a particularly close faction and only cooperate briefly when necessary.

Originally, this group of people has always been the focus of Harvey's attention, fearing that their number will exceed the small group of the Federation. Once they form a group, it will affect the public opinion within the forum and the trend of some important issues. However, this problem has been cleverly solved by him in various ways.

At least the three independent members, Astrologer, Eye of Illusion and Mithril Unicorn, are now staying in his pioneer territory and are still asking him for a huge debt of favor. In this way, the independent members and the Federation have reached a balance of power to a certain extent, and Harvey's identity as a "forum agent" can be regarded as having several vassal members.

...

As usual, the exchange meeting was opened by Mr. Hand of Elements. This independent spellcaster with a calm temperament and elegant demeanor has been marked as the "etiquette model" of the spellcaster forum by Harvey.

[Hand of Elements: Praise Mr. Turing, Mr. Neumann! Good evening, everyone...]

[Son of Flame: Great! Good evening, everyone! Let me announce the exciting opening good news to you first! The Federation's Battle Mage Corps has successfully carried out three large-scale counterattacks and pushed the invading forces of the demons back from the Evil Moon Mountains to their front-line central fortress. The dozens of supply lines they opened up have also been cut off by nearly half by us...]

Everyone congratulated them after hearing this. It seems that after possessing the powerful anti-magic standard magic weapon "Lance of Annihilation", the Federation can independently cross the border to launch a counterattack against the demons even without relying on the assistance of the church and the Seven Nations Alliance of Wizards. This is good news for all spellcasters living in the southern continent.

[Frost Giant: Hehe, you guys are fighting fiercely in the Northern Wasteland, but I heard that the church took the opportunity to stab you in the back... They allowed several demon troops from the Broken Tooth Valley to invade the Western Territory and wreak havoc in the human settlements hundreds of miles around, turning the place into a mess? ]

Fer Holden, the Son of Fire, looked at the weird remarks of this "star-marked friend" who had been at odds with him for many years on the crystal screen of the magic brain, and was so angry that his teeth itched - but although these words were unpleasant, they were not said to deliberately provoke him. This guy was openly and secretly accusing the church of ignoring the safety of human compatriots and watching the alien race invade and kill ordinary people.

Sure enough, it immediately triggered a discussion among the forum.

[Ghost Captain: A group of short-sighted charlatans! No matter how the contradictions between the Federation and the Church intensify, no matter how fierce the civil war conflicts are, as human compatriots, jointly resisting alien invasions and protecting fellow races should be the bottom line! Do they still have the nerve to keep preaching their hypocritical doctrine of "God loves the world"? 】

[Fa Shield: On the one hand, they condoned the invasion of the demons and allowed their own people to be killed... On the other hand, it may be because the small-scale conflicts with us on the line of Saint Valen and Daeus have gradually intensified, causing their military strength to be somewhat tight. 】

[The Earth-loving: You should be thankful that they are not shameless enough to use a large number of believers as human shields to confront you head-on... Otherwise, this extraordinary civil war, which is currently limited to the Central Kingdom, may spread to the entire continent and it will never be possible to clean up the situation. ]

The Principality of Barclay where the Earth-loving is located is on the edge of Saint Valen. Compared with the Evil Moon Mountains thousands of miles away, he is obviously more concerned about the internal conflicts of the human race that have broken out around his motherland, and he does not want the conflicts to spread and affect his own country.

Harvey watched for a while without saying a word as the crowd cursed the Church of Light passionately. Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, he slowly switched to the administrator code and served the "main course" of today's exchange meeting.

[Administrator Turing: Everyone, today the Spellcaster Forum has reopened the access rights for new members. I believe everyone has received some news more or less, right? ]

[Scorching Lord: Mr. Turing, I wonder how many points we need to pay for this forum recruitment, and what other additional membership requirements? 】

[Administrator Turing: It's very simple. Five places will be released for the recruitment of new members. 1,000 points will be exchanged for one place. Each member with full authority can only exchange once. It is not allowed to use secular currency or other magic materials to deduct points...]

After the forum administrator spoke, the chat room was suddenly silent.

No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

1,000 points, this is not a small number. At least a single member has no way to accumulate such a huge amount of points - the forum is full of places where points need to be consumed, such as opening a separate encrypted chat room, anonymous consignment fees, graded payment for reading magic encyclopedia, instant transmission of bulk materials through the magic network...

Enjoying the convenient magic service that transcends the times provided by the forum, and obtaining valuable magic knowledge and experimental materials through risk-free transactions, it is natural to pay points for these contents.

Not to mention that under the organization and guidance of the forum, members have gathered an unprecedented purpose of solidarity and mutual assistance. When encountering many difficult problems, they can get full help from the forum and other members anytime and anywhere. This part of the income is priceless to all members.

The first recruitment is worth 100 points, the second auction is worth 500 points... the third time is 1000 points...

All members have a frightening thought in their minds. If the access rights to the forum are only redeemed by points, it will become more and more difficult and expensive. This means that if you want to stuff your own group faction into the forum without spending points, you must at least make a certain degree of outstanding contribution to the forum like the Federation.
