In the history of Sines, due to the power of the Sorcerers Guild, everyone on the continent, including the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, hoped to become a partner of the Sorcerers Guild because they could obtain countless benefits.
And if there was a Chamber of Commerce like New Flyer that the Sorcerers Guild declared as a Chamber of Commerce that was full of deceit, then what awaited that Chamber of Commerce was the fate of destruction.
After all, the Sorcerers Guild had a high prestige in the hearts of most people in Sines. Everyone was inclined to believe the judgement of the Sorcerers Guild.
Since the Sorcerers Guild said that the Chamber of Commerce was a Chamber of Commerce that was full of deceit, then it had already lost its credibility in the hearts of most people.
And for a Chamber of Commerce, credibility was the most basic thing. Losing credibility was tantamount to a death sentence.
But this time, the development of the situation was completely different from before.
After the Magician's Union Headquarters announced that New Flyer was listed as a Chamber of Commerce that was not welcomed by the Magician's Union Headquarters, not only were the mages working in New Flyer not affected, even the products sold by New Flyer were not affected.
The announcement from the Magician's Union Headquarters was like a tickle to New Flyer. Although it caused a lot of discussion, it did not have any substantial impact.
On the contrary, whether it was the Lampari Kingdom Sorcerers Guild branch or the Sorcerers Guild branches in the southwest of the continent, they all expressed their support for New Flyer. They all announced that New Flyer was actually very supportive of the work of the Sorcerers Guild and was very helpful to the low level mages of these countries.
The reaction of the Magician's Guild branches was beyond everyone's expectations. This was because they were openly opposing the Magician's Guild.
Although in the history of Sines, there was no lack of examples of the Sorcerers Guild branches opposing the decisions of the Union Headquarters, most of them were because of the conflict of ideas between the Magician's Union Headquarters and the Sorcerers Guild branches, and not because of the Union Headquarters opposing a Chamber of Commerce.
And this time, it was not just one branch that opposed the Union Headquarters, but several branches in several countries.
This kind of situation was very thought-provoking.
But this was not the most eye-catching thing.
After several Sorcerers Guild branches, including the Lampari Kingdom Sorcerers Guild branch, expressed their opposition to the Magician's Union Headquarters' evaluation of New Flyer, the Principality of Constantine branch suddenly received a joint agreement from a total of 237 Sorcerers Guild branches, announcing that they would withdraw from the Sorcerers Guild.
Once this matter was reported, it immediately caused an uproar.
In the history of the Sorcerers Guild, it was not that there were no mages who chose to withdraw from the Sorcerers Guild, but they were usually either maverick mages, or mages who were declared as "evil" by the Sorcerers Guild.
But this time, a total of 237 mages chose to withdraw from the Sorcerers Guild, which was a shocking matter.
The reason why the Sorcerers Guild had such a high prestige in the Sines was because of its absolute position in the hearts of all the mages on the continent. At the same time, it was also because the Sorcerers Guild monopolized almost all the mages' resources on the continent.
Whether it was mages or other people or forces who wanted to withdraw from the Sorcerers Guild, they could not avoid it.
The most typical example was that the Sorcerers Guild had control over the evaluation of mages.
This was the only official evaluation in the entire Sines, and it was also the only evaluation that was recognized by the public.
For all mages, working hard to learn magic and striving to pass the Sorcerers Guild's evaluation was their wish, and it was also a process that they had to go through.
If they withdrew from the Sorcerers Guild, it was equivalent to withdrawing from the system. Although they would not die, they would be sentenced to death as a mage.
Therefore, unless it was a last resort, no mage would choose to withdraw from the Sorcerers Guild. There was no benefit in doing so.
So this time, more than 200 mages from the Principality of Constantine chose to withdraw from the Sorcerers Guild at the same time, which naturally made people feel extremely shocked and puzzled.
What was the reason for so many mages to withdraw at the same time?
The Principality of Constantine's Sorcerers Guild branch did not hide this matter. The three newspapers in the Principality of Constantine, as well as several newspapers in the Lampari Kingdom and the Kingdom of Ruhr, also reported this matter in detail.
Through the reports in the newspapers, people finally knew the whole story.
It turned out that the reason why these 237 mages chose to withdraw from the Sorcerers Guild was because of the evaluation of New Flyer by the Magician's Union Headquarters.
The Magicians Guild declared that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce was a company that was full of lies and wasn't worthy of trust. They also called for all magicians to be more vigilant against the Frestech Chamber of Commerce. This wasn't just a slogan, they were actually taking action.
In the annual certification exam that was about to begin this year, the mages working in New Flyer were supposed to participate in the exam like in previous years. However, when they went to participate in the exam, they were told that because they chose to work for New Flyer, a company that the Magician's Union Headquarters had judged to have bad practices, they lost the right to participate in the exam this year.
If they wanted to obtain the right to participate in the exam, they had to withdraw from New Flyer.
This action of the Magician's Union Headquarters caused the mages of New Flyer to be furious. After a discussion, these 237 mages jointly chose to withdraw from the Sorcerers Guild, saying that they would no longer need to participate in the Sorcerers Guild's certification exam.
In addition, in interviews with several newspapers, these 200 mages expressed their strong indignation and criticism towards the actions of the Magician's Union Headquarters.
He pointed out that when the Sorcerers Guild was first established, it was originally an organization for all mages on the continent to help each other. The purpose was to give all mages on the continent some benefits from the Sorcerers Guild.
But now, the Sorcerers Guild had become an organization full of power and selfishness.
The high and mighty elders of the Magician's Union Headquarters no longer considered the interests of the mages, but their own interests.
An organization like this that had already gone against its original purpose did not need to exist!
The people who saw the report had different reactions towards the criticism of this representative.
Most people sympathized with these mages and agreed with this representative's criticism of the Magician's Union Headquarters. However, a small portion pointed out that these 200 mages were employees of New Flyer, and their actions were completely under the instructions of the New Flyer. It was a plot by the New Flyer to go against the Magician's Union Headquarters.
New Flyer did not respond to this, but something else happened that gave the Magician's Union Headquarters another heavy blow.
Not long after these 200 mages chose to withdraw from the Sorcerers Guild, they suddenly announced to the public that they would establish a joint association for the protection of the survival and employment of mages, or the Sorcerers Association for short.
The purpose of this Sorcerers Association was just as its name implied. It would focus on the most basic survival and employment issues of mages, and ensure that all mages would not have to worry about these most basic issues.
In the declaration of the establishment of the Magician's Alliance, the first president of the Magician's Alliance, Mais Luther, who was also the representative of the more than 200 Magicians who had chosen to leave the Guild of Magic, stated that the purpose of the Magician's Alliance was to ensure that every Magician had a suitable job and that they would not be troubled by the problem of survival.
For this reason, the Sorcerers Association would work closely with countless companies, including New Flyer, to ensure that every mage, especially those low-level mages, would be able to enjoy good job training and ensure that they had good skills to work with magic.
This way, the time that these mages had previously spent on magic research would not be completely wasted, and they would be able to apply what they had learned. It would also allow them to maintain their focus and passion for magic through work, and further improve their magic skills.
Compared to the loosely organized Sorcerers Guild, which had gradually developed from a cooperative organization to a management organization, the Sorcerers Association, which was more focused on the practical benefits of mages, especially low-level mages, was clearly superior.
Thus, in less than a month after the establishment of the Sorcerers Association, an astonishing number of over 10,000 mages expressed their willingness to join the Sorcerers Association.
This number instantly shattered the rumors that the Sorcerers Association was controlled by New Flyer, because New Flyer did not have more than 10,000 mages as employees.
Although over 3,000 of the mages that joined the Sorcerers Association were employees of New Flyer, more than half of the remaining 70,000 mages came from other organizations and countries outside of New Flyer.
Of course, no one would believe that the Sorcerers Association was completely unrelated to New Flyer, because on the second day after the establishment of the Sorcerers Association, the Sorcerers Association announced to the public that they had reached a cooperation agreement with New Flyer. They would provide free professional training related to magic machine manufacturing to the mages that joined the Sorcerers Association, and would also give the Sorcerers Association five hundred recruitment slots and three thousand recommendation slots to work at other magic machine companies.
Being able to work at New Flyer was naturally extremely attractive to many low-level mages, and even if they couldn't work at New Flyer, being able to work at other magic machine companies was also something that they couldn't wish for more.
Thus, as soon as this announcement was made, the low-level mages that chose to join the Sorcerers Association immediately swarmed over, resulting in a grand occasion of over 10,000 new members in less than a month.
However, when faced with this situation, most of the people who had nothing to do with it still had the mentality of watching a good show.
This Sorcerers Association was simply poaching the Sorcerers Guild's members. Thus, how could the Sorcerers Guild that had controlled the mages on this continent for over two thousand years sit by and watch this happen?
