Kingdom of Dawn capital.

Church of Creation Association.

You could say this was the second most luxurious building in the capital. Even the Church of Light's headquarters couldn't quite compare. Only the royal palace was a bit better. But thinking about it, that made sense—most of the capital was built by the Church of Creation Association. How could their headquarters possibly be shabby?!

Plus, this used to be where faith in the God of Creation resided. It was just that after the God of Creation fell, this place gradually lost its "divine" attributes and became a pretty ordinary association that gathered the Kingdom of Dawn's top craftsmen.

Every day countless craftsmen posting tasks, taking tasks, and delivering completed tasks met here. Countless association "intermediaries" also helped task posters find suitable craftsmen, improving completion rates for all kinds of tasks.

Everyone in the entire association leisurely completed their own tasks. Except for some slight chaos in the first-floor area where tasks were taken or issued, everywhere else was like this.

But just then, suddenly a young man rushed in from outside, quickly heading toward the top floor. Throughout the whole process he didn't slow his steps one bit, causing quite a commotion, but nobody said anything.

Soon, this young man arrived at the association president's office on the top floor. After a burst of frantic, completely unrhythmic knocking with zero etiquette, the young man quickly walked in. "Teacher, big news! Huge news!"

"Spit it out!"

The president didn't care at all about his student's earlier behavior. Having dwarf bloodline, he wasn't just short, burly, hairy, and full-bearded—he'd also inherited dwarves' bold and unrestrained, down-to-earth and diligent, loyal and stubborn personality. So he wasn't like other nobles or important people with all that reserve and etiquette. Didn't need to worry about that stuff here.

"You know Coffin-Carrying Heddy, right?"

"That Goddess of Magic's chosen one selling Magic Net Rings—who in the capital doesn't know? What, is there a new Magic Conductor? I thought all future Magic Conductors would be produced in Roster territory from now on." Stroking his beard, the president acted unconcerned.

It wasn't that he didn't care about Magic Conductors. It was just that recently, Viscount Roster's side had already brought them huge surprises. Lots of people in the Church of Creation Association had already started using those large engineering Magic Conductors. Especially those who'd taken on Roster territory tasks had already accumulated tons of experience.

Comparatively, Heddy's Magic Net Business Hall was just too small. Even if there were new Magic Conductors, they didn't seem important to the Church of Creation Association. What the Church of Creation Association needed were ultimately the ones Viscount Roster built himself.

However, his student's next words shocked him.

"What?! A second-gen Magic Net that doesn't need magic power to use?! Did you buy one?! Quick, give it to me!!!"

High position and great power, controlling massive resources—yet he didn't have a trace of magic power. Because of having dwarf bloodline, he'd never be able to cultivate even a trace of magic power in this lifetime. To conveniently communicate with high society, to maintain the Church of Creation Association's stability, he'd even specifically hired a magician just to receive and share important information for him, help him relay all kinds of things.

But operations like that were really inconvenient. Occasionally he'd miss important information too, but there was no helping it.

Now suddenly hearing that the second-gen Magic Net Ring didn't need magic power to use, his face was instantly full of surprise and delight!

Taking the second-gen Magic Net Ring from his student's hand, he instantly understood the principle. It was basically the same as activating other Magic Conductors—the core was still that magical stone. He even thought about having the Church of Creation Association go set up a mine at Eagle's Nest Mountain.

Following the instructions, he quickly activated the Magic Net. "Why does this look different from what I've seen before?"

"There are a few features. The God of Technology seems to want to test them through the second-gen Magic Net..." His student said somewhat uncertainly. "But all the features that the normal first-gen Magic Net has, our second-gen Magic Net has too. Normal use definitely won't be a problem."

"Get lost! Use your brain?! I really regret taking you as a student!" The president didn't rush to check out the features that already existed. Don't know if it was reserve or what, but soon after confirming the new features' functions, he couldn't help scolding this student.

[Quest Board]: Can be used to post or take any tasks (escort, crafting, research...). To activate this feature, must upload real information (task-related info will be disclosed to both task parties) to ensure capability to complete tasks.

Note: This feature mainly assists with task-taking. Please communicate independently regarding specific task rewards and claiming.

Wasn't this stealing business from their Church of Creation Association?

That was the president's first thought.

The Church of Creation Association's biggest income source was the first floor, responsible for taking and issuing various creation-related tasks.

But he quickly realized this was actually also an opportunity. Originally their coverage was just the capital and areas around the capital. But once this feature spread, heaven and earth, as long as they were Magic Net users' tasks, they could take and complete them all.

The Church of Creation Association controlled tons of human resources and creation-type related technology, and also had incredibly high authority. They could totally become the Quest Board's biggest task posters and takers.

Besides that, there was another feature that also made his eyes light up.

This feature's description said it could be used for better managing forces.

Even though he didn't understand exactly how it was better for managing, since the God of Technology said so, it must be true. Especially after seeing that clicking once would open the reading feature with a 1.2 million word instruction manual, he felt even more confident.

After lecturing his student for a good while, he finally opened the feature he was most curious about and wanted to check most—"Magic Space."

As soon as he opened it, he froze. The information pushed on the homepage was almost entirely discussing second-gen Magic Net Rings.

"How can they let ordinary people use Magic Net Rings too?!"

"Originally everyone was magicians or clerics who could use magic power. Now suddenly adding some ordinary people—what's that about?"

"Actually originally some powerful people could already hire a magician to use the Magic Net. Doesn't feel like much difference."

"What do you mean no difference? How many magicians are willing to become their lackeys, specifically helping them use the Magic Net? Now with second-gen Magic Net, anyone can use it! Won't that mean ordinary people outnumber us magicians?"

"Ordinary people can't afford Magic Net Rings though."

It seemed the entire Magic Space was in an uproar because of the second-gen Magic Net Ring's appearance.

Some people even outright declared that if second-gen Magic Net Rings became widespread, they'd quit the net, ashamed to associate with ordinary people, and believed this would make the Magic Net lose its purity.

The Church of Creation president couldn't help letting out a scoffing laugh. "Quit the net? If they can actually quit, I'll take their last name!"
