I'm Really Not Targeting the Mages

However, they were in more trouble.

Future mages did not have the ability to obtain dream-like Aether!

In order to maintain the Qi spiral bridge’s existence.

The sky islands consumed a large amount of fantasy Aether every day.

In addition, there was the disorder of spells and the failure of the anti-gravity field.

The future mages would not be able to find another way to replace the cyclone bridge.

In addition.

The other technologies they created later also needed the support of the dream Aether.

It could be said that the entire civilization of Sky Island was built on the foundation of dream Aether!

But here came the problem.

dream Aether could only be obtained from the corpses of star beasts!

This led to the residents of the sky Island having to regularly collect pink ” dream Aether ” from the corpses of astral beasts.

These people were the ” collectors “.

In the world of the sky Island.

A collector was a profession with an extremely high mortality rate.

This was because they needed to enter the surface.

After hundreds of years of the poisonous gas outbreak.

The surface of the planet had entered a low-frequency period of toxic gas eruptions.

However, if one was unlucky, they would still encounter a small-scale poison gas outbreak.

With the power of the skyisland civilization …

It was still unable to resist this poisonous gas.

What was even more terrifying was …

Except for the poisonous gas.

A group of highly mutated monsters had also been born on the surface!

According to the future organization’s research.

These monsters were inextricably linked to the astral beast.

They were equally keen on obtaining fantasy Aether.

As a result, there were even several terrible incidents where monsters attacked the ” cyclone bridge “.

These events intensified the conflict between the future organization and other humans.

This was because the power of the ” future mages ” could not affect the surface of the ground where magic was cast in disorder.

They didn’t dare to get close to the surface.

Therefore, the heavy responsibility of guarding the spiral bridge was handed over to other professionals, just like the collector.

These people were called ‘bridge guards’.

Compared to the collectors who had to go deep into the Star beast mountain range …

The risk of the bridge guard was lower.

The chances of the Qi cyclone bridge provoking monsters were still relatively low.

While they were stationed.

It would be fine as long as they could avoid a small-scale poison gas explosion.

And the gatherers could be attacked by monsters at any time in the process of collecting illusory Aether in the starbeast mountains.

What made them even more dissatisfied was …

He didn’t know if it was to save costs.

The ” wings of the mage “, the aircraft that the future mages would provide to the collectors to travel between the surface and the sky Island, often malfunctioned.

The total fault rate was above 20%.

It was still fine when they went down.

After all, every collector would bring 3 wings of magic with them when they set off.

The well-trained collectors had the ability to change their equipment during the free fall.

However, when they returned.

They had to carry the heavy illusory Aether.

To do it at this time.

The collector would have to face the choice of throwing away the jar of fantasy Aether on his back.

A little carelessness.

He would either lose the dream-like Aether that he had painstakingly collected.

Otherwise, they would simply lose their lives.

What made him even more dissatisfied was …

If the collector returned empty-handed.

They still had to bear the cost of renting ” wings of mage “.

Of course, there was also the compensation for the loss of the aircraft.

These debts often forced them to carry out the next collection operation.

However, even if he successfully collected it …

The reward of the gatherers was still not proportional to the risk.

At most, he would rest for three months.

When the savings reached the bottom, it would prompt him to resume his old business.

This was because in the future, the organization would monopolize the lifeline of all industries.

Especially in the field of agriculture.

The sky Island didn’t allow any form of private cultivation.

Only a ” bread garden ” with a business license could produce food.

The owners of the bread garden were all future members of the organization.

They communicated with each other.

They had a monopoly on the price of food.

Therefore …

The price of these foods was extremely high when they were circulated to the market.

It would soon empty the pockets of the collectors.

As for the rest of the members, they could only survive as the various vassals of the organization in the future.

They lived a life where they could not even guarantee food and clothing.

It was worth mentioning.

The breadfruit trees, cheese vines, fruit platter shrubs, and other exotic plants in the bread garden had also grown under the irrigation of the dreamy Aether.

Under such a background.

Those who had the qualifications to become mages and could enter the future organization lived like kings.

The rest of the people could only pass their days in panic.

The gatherer looked at the plants growing in the bread garden with resentment.

The bridge guard looked at the tragic death of his companion and felt sad.

The others were also facing a similar predicament.

Hence, there was the ” battle of resistance “.

It was about the war of resistance.

The historical knowledge that Roger had received didn’t mention much.

He only knew that the collectors, the bridge guards, and other non-mage members had joined forces.

Some people went on strike.

Another group of people chose to escape from ” Sky Island “!

This incident had infuriated the future organization.

However, they did not dare to chase after the ” resisters ” who had escaped to the surface.

He could only vent his anger on the people on strike.

All in all.

That was another period of darkness that the sky Island had experienced since its establishment.

The population of the islands had decreased sharply.

There was a period of time.

The mages ‘organizations even publicly announced that they did not need any other humans.

They only needed people who had the qualifications to become mages.

The others were only worthy of being kept in captivity.

However, very quickly.

Due to some unknown reasons.

The mages who made those remarks were stripped of their status as future members of the organization.

The future organization’s attitude softened.

They began to negotiate with the rest of the people.

Not long after.

A small number of the “rebels” fled back to the sky Island in a sorry state
