Is It Weird for a Guy to Apply to a Witch School?
Chapter 1050: Xiao Han: The Plan Is Proceeding Abnormally Smoothly
It was already several hours later by the time the upheaval within the Verdant Forest game world spread to the game world.
Initially, the Game Architect in charge of Verdant Forest thought that the resistance forces had found a loophole in the Myriad Worlds Terminal, breaking through the combat power limits of Verdant Forest to carry out indiscriminate destruction, so he directly handled it according to the contingency plan.
But by the time the Supreme Game Architect in charge received the feedback from the contingency plan, he was directly dazed.
The one invading Verdant Forest was not any player, but that long-disappeared “Calamity Witch”!
And by the time this Game Architect received feedback again, among the 269 large player main cities, 1664 player gathering villages, and the countless unregistered gathering places built by players within the Verdant Forest game world, nearly one-third of them had completely fallen!
By the time this news reached the Supreme Council, the player settlements of Verdant Forest had fallen by nearly half.
Furthermore, this incomplete statistical data continued to climb at a terrifying speed.
For the first time, this was the first time they had seen that Calamity Witch in such an “all-out firepower” posture.
They also finally realized that previously, that Calamity Witch had always been just playing around with them.
If she truly wanted to annihilate this world of theirs, she probably wouldn't even need a true Transcendent Witch; they would completely fall and become a dead world wandering within the void.
Humanity would completely perish, and an entire world would be the tomb buried with their civilization.
At the Supreme Council.
“We must ask for help! This Calamity Witch is simply too terrifying; we must find a group of people who can restrain her to drive her away!”
“I say No. 12, you are being a bit too pessimistic. This Calamity Witch is merely within this small game world.”
At this time, someone came out to refute.
“She can stir up a calamity in this world, so she can do the same thing in our home world! Do you feel that just because the meteor shower in the images hasn't smashed onto your head, you can still happily play with women?”
“I also feel this matter is very serious. Should we inform the side of the Wizards?”
Another person on the side chimed in with an echoing tone and proposed their own idea.
As soon as this idea was proposed, the meeting suddenly fell silent.
Everyone was unsurprised.
Most of the 12 members of the Supreme Council represented a major power and interest group behind them.
This meeting was less about 12 people talking and more about the collective wisdom of over a dozen interest groups and the striving for interests at critical moments.
While a group of people was waiting to deliberate, No. 11 was the first to speak: “I don't think it's necessary anymore, right? The Wizards are unable to attend to even themselves, and there's also that Transcendent Non-Interference Principle. Do you really think someone will come to save us?”
After he finished speaking, no one echoed him, and the meeting continued to maintain a strange silence.
Only after a while did someone speak again.
“I think it is still necessary to give a notification. Clarifying our own position is a reality we urgently need to recognize now; at least we are ostensibly standing in the camp of the Wizards.”
“I deny the latter half of your words, but I also feel notification is very necessary. Some people shouldn't live their lives until they resemble the appearance of a dog.”
“Decide by vote. End this topic quickly; I see that some people simply haven't understood why we are gathered here so urgently now.”
No. 02, as an existence second only to No. 01, directly made the final call.
Subsequently, the voting began.
A simple decision was finally passed in a child-like manner with a unanimous vote of 12.
“Then next, let us still discuss how we should handle the world codenamed 《Verdant Forest》.”
No. 01 presided personally; he hadn't spoken at all during the previous discussions, but facing this matter, he spoke.
“I propose to forcibly cut off the connection with the Verdant Forest world and execute it immediately. This matter cannot be delayed for even half a second.”
As soon as this person finished speaking, one person immediately appeared emotionally agitated:
“Do you know exactly how serious the consequences of doing this are! You just say whatever comes to your mouth!”
“State the reasons.”
No. 01 did not join the argument but looked toward the person who first made the suggestion to ask for the reasons.
“We all know that the Calamity Witch has the means to kill people through the network. Up until now, we only know that the opponent has the ability to kill using game qualifications as a medium, but we cannot figure out specifically how they kill, because everyone treated with this move has died. Who knows if the opponent can descend into our world again through this means?”
“I think this kind of thinking is too pessimistic. If the opponent really wanted to destroy our world like this, she would have been able to do it long ago.”
“The Calamity Witch that descended into our world is only an avatar! Her not descending a calamity in our home world might not be out of her kindness, but rather not having the ability. If her main body comes before us along this small world, do you still want to hand over your life and death to that slaughterer, the Calamity Witch?”
The person who refuted just now was silenced by these words.
In fact, everyone present could see the terror of the Calamity Witch; one must be cautious and cautious again in handling this matter.
But... the current situation in the game world had already made many people feel hopeless, to the point where many had the thought of inevitable defeat rise from within their hearts.
Therefore, this also led to a contradiction between correct choices and the sacrifice of interests.
After all, things were already going to pieces; the Calamity Witch had already visited before.
Regardless of the reason, if it happened again, many people in their hearts more or less had a “so what” mentality.
Don't look at how this game world of Verdant Forest had already been operating for so long with its heritage hollowed out; the industries inside were all highly profitable!
The consumption of desire has always been the most profitable industry.
Such interests naturally made many people reluctant to let go, and they still held a sliver of hope in their hearts.
At this time, someone spoke again: “How is the negotiation with the players dispatched to the Calamity Witch going?”
“According to the data, that Calamity Witch has already killed 13 of our negotiating players. Furthermore, mission postings, permission granting, and temporary negotiating players have died in countless numbers. The opponent has no desire at all to communicate with us.”
This response completely extinguished the lucky hope in many people's hearts.
“Now I must emphasize again, within the world of Verdant Forest, half of the player settlements have completely fallen. Player settlements are distributed separately, which means that half of an entire world has been completely destroyed! What are you still doing holding onto that lucky mentality? Do you really think it's us harming your interests? It's that Calamity Witch!”
Facts proved that regardless of how high a position a person reached, they still liked to harbor strange fantasies.
And the underlying logic for this was the unfairness of the damage to interests.
We lost our interests for no reason; we can shift the blame to that Calamity Witch, but can they still find that witch for compensation?
Obviously impossible, and they were even laughed at by others.
So this was unfair!
Therefore, they couldn't just let the others watch the joke; they were just stalling, openly threatening.
At worst, everyone would go down together.
Otherwise, you must provide a handling plan that we can accept, whether it's the division of interests or a compromise of interests; in any case, no one should think of being happy!
It could be said that these opposing people were putting their rascality out in the open.
The conversations on the Supreme Council were merely expressions of attitude.
What righteousness, what right and wrong, what the interests of the majority, what the life and death of everyone—all were bargaining chips.
Now that the Calamity Witch had not yet reached the home world, that was their bargaining chip for negotiation at this moment.
These were those people whose heads were filled with nothing but interests, with bizarre logic paths.
If you can't understand them, it means you haven't yet looked at the problem from their perspective.
The problem of Verdant Forest, once proposed, was destined to be thrown away and abandoned.
But it couldn't be abandoned by agreeing just like that.
This was the meaning of convening this Supreme Council.
The subsequent stage was the climax of this meeting; the involvement and selection of interests affected every aspect.
It could be said that everyone maintained a high degree of attention.
When facing matters involving their own interests, they naturally couldn't let the other parties take even a bit of an advantage.
As for the Verdant Forest incident, how the Calamity Witch reached that world, why she wanted to destroy that world, what purpose she had, and so on—no one cared.
Because foolish people would ignore this question without reason, and clear-headed people knew they were powerless to handle this question.
Were there any fools on this Supreme Council?
No.
They all knew what they were facing.
The bickering on the surface was actually a cover for their incompetence and helplessness on another level.
As for the accumulated civilizational heritage they were proud of, the experience of being able to wander within the void for so long while remaining safe and sound was also completely useless at this moment.
If they truly unpacked their heritage, they could only find: bullying the weak and fearing the strong, being cowardly and cautious, and running away when something happens.
And now, they had already been trapped.
Time passed bit by bit.
No one cared how many player settlements within Verdant Forest had fallen; those losses on the Supreme Council were also nothing more than some changes in data.
Even stable data changes could bring them a sliver of sense of security.
The Calamity Witch was working hard to destroy the world, so she would have no extra energy to deal with them.
And while the interest distribution meeting continued, the Transcendent Academy of the Main World also received the news.
That little witch of the Witch Academy who had been jumping around had actually run into a game world again.
And this time, it was even invading a prospective cluster world.
The first to receive this news was, naturally, the Wizard Academy.
Originally, the Wizards didn't plan to care, until they understood that the world invaded by that little witch was a world dominated by elves.
After learning about the internal situation of this Verdant Forest, the Wizard Academy immediately blocked this news.
This was truly a joke!
Enslaving a world of elves, even if it was just a small world, and doing such things to the elves—do they really not fear that the Aphrodite Forest Elves will tear this game world apart?
Their Wizard Academy raised Grass and Tree Elves privately within the most airtight world fragments; one can see how high the obsession of the Elves toward the Elven race was!
Furthermore, the current situation of the Main World was simply too delicate.
If those stupid elves of Aphrodite had a short circuit in their brains and started internal strife, then this conflict would directly affect the relationship between the Three Great Transcendent Races.
Once a rift appeared, wouldn't the World-Destroying Staff deterrence plan be a joke?
Moreover, the game world was still a world where transcendents must not interfere; this was a Witch's Contract!
If they violated it... that would cause the witches to target them.
The previous matter made them aware that there were still so many Anti-Witches in places outside the Main World.
Fortunately, the Witch Academy side also didn't want the Anti-Witches to come in, but if they were to violate the Witch's Contract, then the Anti-Witches would have a mandatory obligation to absolutely take action and maintain the Truth Offering of the Witch's Contract.
Within the witch world, the importance of maintaining the Truth Offering of the Witch's Contract was much more important than a repairable Main World!
At least the current situation was like this.
Just thinking like this, the Wizards understood how horrifying it was for the Witch Academy to let a little witch go to the game world to pull off such a stunt.
If they were to make a fuss about this little witch's behavior, then the face of their Three Great Transcendent Races would be completely gone.
If behavior without any bottom line was spread by the witches, it would cause a huge impact on the reputation of their transcendent races.
At that time, they might be completely abandoned by their own races, although... their current situation was almost about the same as being abandoned.
The witch race truly cannot be provoked.
It could be said that currently, one Wizard Academy bore all the current pressure, and this wasn't over yet!
Soon they received news that the game world planned to cut their losses and abandon this world called Verdant Forest, and they also hoped to push this world toward the Main World when they abandoned it.
Letting that little witch go back to where she came from.
The reason for doing this was that after discussing, they felt they couldn't provoke this Calamity Witch, so in order not to completely make an enemy of her, they would even give an entire world to the Main World.
Seeing that the game world had made this decision, it almost made the Wizards laugh from anger.
Sending this world to the Main World?
Wouldn't the crimes committed by the game world against the elves be completely publicized then?
Do they really feel like they aren't dying fast enough?
But... did the game world have any other choice... it seemed not.
This world would inevitably fall into the Main World.
Even if abandoned by the game world into the void, at that time, once the cluster world broke away from the game world, it would no longer be within the scope of the contract.
Any Anti-Witch outside the Main World could throw it into the Main World at random, which would cause an uproar, and they would have no way to talk sense with an Anti-Witch, not even if it were a witch.
Therefore... the Wizards agreed to this plan of the players.
But what the game world didn't know was that the Wizards were already planning to direct the anger of the elves onto the game world.
In any case, within the Main World, the academies of the Three Great Transcendent Races must be “harmonious friends”!
Because if they were not friends, the outcome was that everyone would die!
And in the Supreme Council far above the game world, some “councilors” had a strange feeling that the plan was proceeding a bit too smoothly.
