Game of the World Tree - Chapter 328
328. Chapter 326 Platinum Dragon King
Nidhogg’s memory is full of ancient secrets.
However, what Eve is most concerned about is the reason why the world tree was besieged…
Thinking about the first memory fragment she saw, Eve frowned slightly:
“Will the existence of the world tree lead to more and more true gods?”
“The gods of faith are worried that the existence of the world tree will continue to enhance the strength of the creatures in the plane and eventually threaten their status, so they choose to attack the world tree?”
“This… is the truth of the thousand-year war of gods?”
The first reason surprised him a little.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he understood it.
The normal operation of the Segos plane requires suitable intelligent creatures.
And the normal operation of the Segos universe also requires suitable mythological creatures.
Hela once told him that the world tree itself indirectly created the true god of faith, and it can be called the “mother” of the gods of faith.
Then, for the former good-natured man, in order to make the Segos universe operate normally, against the background of the withering of the ancient gods, he might really support more creatures to be deified and replace the role of the ancient gods.
For the predecessor, perhaps the role of the true god in his eyes for the entire Segos universe is like the role of the elves he created for the Segos plane.
However, elves are secular creatures. The world tree, as a mythical creature, can perfectly control this race, but the status of the true god of faith is not lower than his, and he cannot completely control the true god of faith in his hands.
So… as time goes by, things will always deviate.
All living beings have desires, even if they become true gods.
The true gods who have been deified naturally do not want to see more beings deified and share the power of the laws of this world.
Of course, this is just Eve’s guess…
As for the second reason, it is similar to the reason he first guessed.
The [absorption] ability of the world tree can indeed continuously improve the energy level of the entire plane, and the increase in the magic level of the plane will also benefit ordinary intelligent creatures.
Faith comes from awe.
If the overall strength of the believers is too strong, theoretically, it is indeed possible to threaten the gods.
However, Eve thinks that this reason is still a bit inappropriate after careful consideration.
Because from various historical signs, even if the World Tree can improve the energy level of the plane, this time is probably quite long.
The World Tree can only affect one plane, and the entire Segos universe is more than just this one plane.
It’s just that the World Tree is located in the main material plane, which is the largest, oldest, and most perfect in the universe.
In this case, the true gods have the opportunity to gradually transfer believers, open up new beliefs in other planes, raise more “sheep”, and get rid of their dependence on the Segos plane. There is no need to fight the World Tree to death.
In particular, this kind of fight to the death also has the risk of breaking the Segos plane, and in fact, the God War a thousand years ago did cause great damage to the Segos plane…
So, if you think about it carefully, you will find that the two reasons for the siege of the World Tree in Nighold’s memory are not fatal reasons, at least… They are not the reasons that made the gods decide to turn against the World Tree immediately.
“Something must have happened, and the gods have made up their minds to destroy the World Tree in the short term! For example… the previous World Tree is going to be promoted, and after the promotion, it is very likely that the speed of absorbing will increase rapidly, and even its own strength will be greatly improved, which makes the gods feel threatened.”
Eve guessed in her heart.
There is a reason for his guess.
All signs indicate that the former World Tree is a good guy.
If He had not become a threat to the True God, no one would have attacked Him.
When He was out of the near-death state, He already knew that the World Tree had more than one form. Now His posture was only the primary posture, and the predecessor had been in the powerful divine power for so long, maybe he was about to break through.
As for whether the body of the World Tree or some of its abilities were coveted by the gods…
This was ruled out by Eve as early as when she traveled through time.
Because if that was really the case, even if there had been defensive divine arts to protect the body of the World Tree for thousands of years, there should have been someone monitoring the body of the World Tree, waiting for an opportunity.
But the fact is that Eve has been revived for so long, and no one has come to check on the status of the World Tree. Of
course, it is not ruled out that He has been revived for a short time, and the concept of time of the True God is different from that of ordinary creatures…
but… these are still speculations.
But at least, according to Nighold’s memory, combined with Uller’s previous words, Eve also knew that her current situation was not good.
“Whatever the reason, the gods are determined to destroy the World Tree.”
“It’s not appropriate to just wear Hela’s vest. I have to find a suitable identity to stand on the stage.”
“With the increase in the number of players and the expansion of their activities, their existence will definitely not be hidden for long.”
“And the appearance of a large number of elves and the reappearance of the priesthood of life and nature will easily make others associate it with the World Tree.”
“We have to think of a way to completely sever our relationship with the World Tree, and it would be best to eliminate the risk of the original body being discovered, and then give the players a reasonable identity…”
“From the attitude of Hela, the God of Death, and Uller, the God of Winter and Hunting, towards me, they can still tell the difference between me and my predecessor. Perhaps… we can start from this aspect.”
“We have to do these things as soon as possible. The more noise I make in the world of Segos, the greater the risk of being discovered.”
Gradually, Eve had some ideas in her mind.
After having an idea in mind, Eve focused her attention on the large “Miriel” in the giant cocoon.
“I didn’t expect… it turns out that Myriel is actually formed by the dragon crystal and part of Nidhogg’s flesh and blood, and the life source of the world tree. No wonder I felt an inexplicable sense of closeness when I first saw it, and subconsciously wanted to take it as a dependent.”
Thinking of some scenes in Nidhogg’s memory, Eve was slightly enlightened.
The life source has the function of enlightenment. It is normal for it to be out of control and merge with Nidhogg’s dragon crystal and part of his flesh and blood, and finally turn into a new dragon egg and give birth to a new life.
In other words, Myriel is closer to Nidhogg than his blood relatives, and it is no wonder that their souls are attracted to each other.
This also explains why the little black dragon, although not yet an adult, has the dragon power comparable to that of an adult black dragon, and its strength is far beyond that of dragons of the same age.
Its origin is not simple. It is a piece of meat that fell from Nidhogg’s body and became a spirit, and it is the most essential piece.
As for the silver dragon that attacked Nidhogg in his memory…
Eve found relevant information from the World Tree’s inheritance. It was an ancient dragon god, whose strength was not much different from Nidhogg, and was his old enemy.
He had a nice title:
Platinum Dragon King – Reinhard.
