《MMORPG: Martial Gamer》Chapter 883. Revenge of the Gods
Advertisement
“Don’t worry.” Fearless patted Captain Don’t Open Fire’s shoulder in an attempt to soothe his nerves. He asked, “What is the basis of their doctrine?”
“Of course it is in their God.”
“That is right!” Fearless nodded. With a profound look on his face, he said, “Since both sides feel that the other party is in the wrong, why not we just send them to their Gods so that they can determine who’s wrong and who is right once and for all?”
“Wtf… Is there such a thing?” Captain Don’t Open Fire was utterly flabbergasted upon hearing Fearless.
The believers are convinced about the existence of their God. For them, such an outcome would be the best ending.
Neither of both sides of NPCS had high HP but they used skills extremely lethal when they fought.
The sky was overcast and the ground flowed with streams of blood as the battle raged on. Although there wasn’t real blood in-game, the tragic nature of the skirmish was clear for all to see.
Under the effect of ultimate skills, both sides raked up catastrophic losses at an alarming rate. Within ten minutes, the entire courtyard was a bloodied mess, with corpses lying around.
Of course, players were used to this sort of brutal scenes of a battlefield but it was not the case for NPCs. They were not as experienced in battle. Before the few surviving NPCs could even recollect themselves, the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect began to start looting…
The NPCs were capable of using player skills. Therefore, they had a very high drop rate when it came to skill books. If one were to obtain a final skill book from them, it would be a massive windfall.
How could the players from Quan Zhen Sect pass up on such a golden opportunity?
These poor NPCs were ravaged by the battle and yet were now being stripped and looted of their items. The whole scene was akin to that of a XX tape.

The courtyard became more and more empty as the battle continued. The leaders of the two groups felt that something was amiss and hurriedly gestured to their subordinates to cease fighting.
“What are you doing?” Saint Peter stared at the four players and asked in an irate tone.
Fearless coldly chuckled, “What can we do? We are just looting these resources. We can’t just waste it like that, you know.”
Saint Peter and the others finally realised that they were thoroughly made a fool of by Fearless.
“Damn you, didn’t you propose to help to settle our differences?”
Ming Du who was at the side interjected, “Yeah, aren’t we not sending both sides to meet their Gods? Before God, all differences and animosity will naturally be settled. You guys are spending a fortune to avoid a calamity while we can also have a share in this fortune.”
“Despicable brat! God will never forgive you guys!” Saint John howled furiously and raised his staff. A green glow covered Ming Du. Saint Reina was not far behind and he soared forward with his hands directed at Ming Du.
Before Saint Reina could reach Ming Du, Wang Yu flew to his side. With one swift [Thunder God’s Stomp], he smashed into Saint Reina’s cranium. Upon the impact, Saint Reina let out a loud cry in pain as he fell from mid-air onto the ground.
Wang Yu stepped forward and restrained Saint Reina with one foot on his chest. Without missing a beat, he continued his assault with [Heavenly Tyrant Fist Dance] towards Saint Reina head.
Saint Reina simply had no opportunity to counterattack.
The three others, along with Saint Peter, also fared no better than Saint Reina.
Be it Quan Zhen Sect or Void Blade, all their experts were gathered here at this moment. Even four BOSS would not faze these players, what more just the four Saints.

If it was the case where both sides were at the full battle strength, these players would definitely have some apprehension in fighting the Saints. However, after a few hundred skills were unleashed around the battlefield, the Saints had barely a fraction of their fighting men. They posed no threat to the players at all.
While Wang Yu was tying down Saint Reina, the remaining players rushed to clean up the remaining NPCs who were still alive.
As all the NPCs died, the players got a notification that their quest was completed.
This was such a mess yet somehow the quest was completed… This time Captain Don’t Open Fire truly widened his horizons.
Using warped logic to justify one’s actions. What kind of message was the game sending to its players?
…
Although hundreds of NPCs were killed on the ground, including the four Saints, there was no sign of any skill books.
The players were immensely disappointed. Captain Don’t Open Fire could empathise with their disappointment as these hot-blooded men had rummaged through several hundred male NPCs yet had nothing to show for it… If they were female NPCs… Heh, these men would not be displaying this sullen expression.
Just when everyone was still downcast, a dazzling white light flashed in the sky, and it was followed by an enraged voice.
“Who are you, dare to have the gall to kill my followers? Are you eyeing my treasure?”
The system gave a prompt: You team’s slaughter of the believers have incurred the wrath of God. After three seconds, there will be a Revenge of the Gods. During the Revenge of the Gods, no player can be resurrected. If one fails this quest, all quest rewards will be forfeited.
“F*ck, is this the legendary Revenge of the Gods?”
When they heard the system notification, their first reaction was a momentary shock. However, these players took out their weapons and readied themselves for the impending battle.
Fearless furrowed his eyebrows but he calmly instructed, “Wow, we actually triggered the Revenge of the Gods!! The rumour that killing the Saints would incur the wrath of God is not just a rumour after all.”
> was a game based on magic. Although the Sanctum of Darkness and Sanctum of Light had a majority of believers, there were also a few other smaller religious organisations.
As soon as the game started, there were rumours circulating on the forums saying that other than the Saints of Sanctum of Darkness and Sanctum of Light, one could not kill the Saints of other religions. If this taboo was ever violated, it will trigger the hidden quest, Revenge of the Gods.
However, no matter whether it was during internal testing or public beta, there was never a case of a player triggering such a quest. Therefore, even well-seasoned experts would struggle to accept this sort of rumour as truth.
But before their eyes, this legendary quest was indeed proven to be true.
Thinking about it, faith was an important resource to these gods. For the bigger sized Sanctum of Darkness and Light, killing a few hundred of their members would probably not affect their numbers much. It would be beneath the gods to take revenge for such a small matter.
The common god was different. Killing off the members of a smaller religion would mean that you would directly affect the livelihood of the god. The god wanting to take revenge was reasonable in this case.
Now that the quest was triggered, Wang Yu and the others felt aggrieved. These believers had mostly fought among themselves whereas the players only took a few of their lives. Why were they held responsible for the whole slaughter now?

Mortis Operandi 1- New Hire
Thank you for reading, I have to start with that. The feedback and encouragement from RoyalRoad users helped me finish my book. I left the unedited version up as I worked on editing and making it a little more polished. However the time has come for me to put it on Amazon and hopefully let other people read the story. If you have Kindle unlimited you should be able to read the story there. If you just want to order an ebook version you can do that as well. I should have a paperback version coming up. https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07T46B4NM Again thank you for reading and helping me on this journey. It hasn't ended however, my second book which I'm hoping to do well enough that reading the first isn't completely necessary, is still being worked on here, https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/24562/mortis-operandi-2--terms-and-conditions . Any feedback, comments, even critism is welcome as I work on giving you the best version of my story. I'll leave the first two chapters up here, unless Amazon says otherwise. There should be enough differences to avoid issues though. THANK YOU! Thank you! thank you! __________________________________ Adventurers enter dungeons every day. Battling evil monsters, defying dangerous terrain, triumphing over devious traps... ... but none of them ever ask why? That arrow trap, who reloads it? The pitfall trap, who cleans out the bodies and sharpens the spikes? What if the grates get clogged, where will the blood and gore drain? When you are trying to study ancient lore or plan on conquering a kingdom, you don't want to worry about all that. You just want peace. Mortis Operandi is a different kind of company. One that celebrates diversity. One that celebrates value in individuals. With flexible pay and plenty of advancement opportunities, it is a company that knows its workers are it's most valuable asset. As they design, build, and install traps, rooms, obstacles, and repair they are a one stop shop. When a possible recall sets events into motion, the company must pivot in a new paradigm of full circle Dungeon service. The Goblin Eft No-toes has a solution that entwines ex-adventurer Elric into the business of death. *Note the above statements are forward looking statements. In no way do they promote or suggest that Mortis Operandi will project greater sales or revenue. Understand that investing in a company does involve some risks, and possibly much rewards.
