That public duel had changed a lot.
It proved the strength of the Game Church. It didn't need to be mentioned again and again, but some changes were lurking in the shadows.
These days, not only did the Game Church have many applicants from the grassroots level, but there were also professional warriors.
Aishi was no longer in the barbaric era where they relied on each other for survival. Both the employees and the church had a choice.
There was no need to expand too much on the church's side. They only needed to look at the employees. To them, this was not only a job opportunity, but also a choice for the future.
Large churches had their advantages. Their training system was comprehensive. If they followed the prescribed order, outstanding talents would always be able to stand out.
Small and medium churches also had their own advantages. It was difficult for them to obtain the best seedlings. The internal competition was relatively mild. As long as they could make some achievements, they would be able to stand out. Resources would be given priority, and they would be able to grow.
It was better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. It didn't sound good, but it was very practical. As long as they had a successful start, they would have a chance to stand out in the future.
Many small churches produced talents, and many of them became epic heroes in the end.
It was hard to say how far they could develop until they reached that stage.
Take Hermit and Matt for example. If it were any other large church, even if they were given money and sponsorship, it would be impossible for them to be nurtured. Even if they were taken in, no one would care about them. If they wanted to obtain a descender slot, they would have to wait for several decades. Countless geniuses would repeatedly cut the queue, and they might even reach the age of retirement. It was better to find a small church and start early to earn more.
In terms of scale, the Game Church was still a small church, especially in terms of the number of higher-ups and middle-level backbones. However, since they had proven their strength and high-level combat power, they had the body of a small church but the potential of a large church. Naturally, they would be viewed favorably.
This kind of talent flow was expected from the beginning. It was also an unspoken rule that the churches tacitly agreed to.
"They received more than three hundred applications from professionals above grade 3 in a week? How can it be so exaggerated? "
More than ten people transferred in and out in a month. This was already the limit for small and medium churches. More than three hundred applications? Were all of Vila Nova Dônia's mid-level descenders and professionals here?
Rorschach didn't care about human affairs. He was a little shocked when he saw the application list.
"Heidi's Church's celebrity hunter Su, West Wind Church's Archmage Ancel Peyton … They're already A-list celebrity descenders, they'll lose a lot if they change churches. Are they crazy? Even if they go crazy, we won't be able to afford it. Just the various follow-up troubles and liquidated damages will be enough to make us go bankrupt. "
[Is it absurd? As long as the benefits outweighed the losses, everything would be reasonable. Take a closer look. They have their own personal request list at the back. If you have to deal with the follow-up trouble, you'll have to pay the penalty yourself.]
The Church would need to pay a tremendous amount of resources to nurture a descender, and the descenders were inextricably linked to the Gods. Changing Gods would result in great losses, and it would be normal for a descender's power level to drop. And if a descender was determined to transfer to another God, the first thing that would stop them would be the enormous penalty for breaching the contract.
Even if there were many obstacles, there would still be people who would choose to leave their Church and start all over again. When there were so many people like this, it became an unspoken rule in the Church.
The penalty for breaching the contract was usually twice the total amount of all the resources accumulated. (Since the original Church was responsible for the calculation, and it was difficult to calculate the amount of resources invested, the final calculation was usually on the high side. It could be two times or even five times the original amount. Asking for too much was inevitable.)
In such a situation, it would be terrible to ask an individual to pay the full penalty. The Church that accepted the transfer would usually pay a portion of the penalty. This ratio was negotiated between both parties. In the end, the New Church would usually pay more than 50% of the penalty. Talents who were in urgent need would even pay 90% or 100%.
Since the Gods and descenders had a spiritual connection, the Gods would receive the descenders' faith and support. The descenders who used the faith panel would also enjoy the growth buff brought by divine power. If the relationship was cut off, both sides would be hurt.
Since the transfer cost was so high, it was extremely rare for a natural descender to transfer. They were the core members of their Churches to begin with, and the departure of any one of them would alarm the God's main body. Yet, Rorschach saw more than sixty private letters from descenders in front of him. There were even more than twenty who were famous veterans.
Back in the day, the Game Church had also accepted descenders from other Churches. One of them was the half-beast, half-elf Su Xinqi. She was forced to transfer because she couldn't stay in her original Church any longer.
The result was that she lost one Level after transferring and was still fighting at the peak of Level 3. Her losses were tremendous and she only recently recovered. However, it was said that after a certain battle, not only did she successfully level up, she even learned new combat skills and spells. It seemed that she was currently in seclusion trying to break through to Level 5. It was as if she was cheating …
"… I understand now. So it's because of the trouble here. What they want is an opportunity to level up!"
Rorschach had a sudden realization as he thought of this.
In that battle, the souls of Roxia's reincarnated comrades would control their steel bodies. They would use their divine power to revive an infinite number of times. They would constantly modify their steel bodies and combat style. Although this would be quite difficult, the experience of dying in battle over and over again … well, probably no other faction would be able to provide that.
The result was that they had experienced countless life-and-death situations and even used other physical bodies to fight. They had received inconceivable benefits.
In the words of the archmages, they had instantly saved three or four years of effort and broken through a bottleneck that they had been stuck at for several decades.
The result was that in order to stabilize their power levels and accumulate their benefits, all of them asked for time off and went into seclusion to prepare for their breakthroughs. Rorschach, who hadn't received any benefits at all, was incredibly envious of them.
The current situation was quite clear. News of Rorschach's "cheat" that allowed him to repeatedly revive and gain experience had already spread. Those who had been stuck at a bottleneck for a long time and wanted to find a more suitable Church for their development had all heard about it.
"… How ridiculous. We can't possibly activate this combat mode just to satisfy them. That would cost us half a year's worth of divine power."
[… It's fine. They said that they could wait. They said that they would start fighting sooner or later.]
Rorschach was rendered speechless. It was truly difficult to deal with all these requests.
If he accepted them, his Church's power level would explosively increase. That would likely be much greater than the Church of Wealth's power level.
