Game of the World Tree - Chapter 440

440. Chapter 438 Do we need some help?

“The wise man said in the inheritance that the Heart of Life was once the supreme treasure of the Mother of All Gods. I think… it should be what you are looking for in this world.”

“Don’t be surprised. I don’t know what you are looking for. It’s just that the prophecy vaguely mentioned the purpose of your coming to this world…”

Listening to Elder Lueg’s story, the players looked surprised.

But at the same time, they were also slightly moved.

Because the more they listened to Lueg’s story, the more the players felt that the “Heart of Life” he mentioned was very similar to the characteristics and abilities of the Life Scepter Fragment that Zero, the God’s Favored One, told them.

I’m afraid… this is really likely to be the target they are looking for!

“So, where is the Heart of Life? Where do we need to go to seize it?”

Looking at Elder Shen’en, whose face became increasingly gray due to physical reasons, but whose expression became more and more excited as he spoke, the optimist asked anxiously.

The other players also looked at Lueg expectantly.

“It’s Seges City!”

Elder Lueg replied seriously.

“Legend has it that the Heart of Life is hidden by the God of Creation in the church’s headquarters, and the church’s headquarters is located in the world’s largest city, the city of Segus.”

“The city of Segus was the first city opened up by the God of Creation and three hundred gods after they descended into this world a thousand years ago. It is also the holy city where He and the gods live. At the same time… it is said that it is also the place where He sleeps.”

“The Heart of Life… must be somewhere in Segus! If you want to find the Heart of Life and defeat the conspiracy of the God of Creation, you need to go there!”

As he spoke, Rueg turned around and walked towards the wooden statue in the living room.

He came in front of the statue, suddenly stretched out his hand, broke open the statue’s body, and took out a crystal-clear crystal-like ball from it.

With a sigh, he handed the crystal ball to the players and said,

“This is a crystal ball that has absorbed the power of the Creator God’s faith. It was also left by the wise man.”

“The Creator God has fallen into a deep sleep and cannot respond to the calls of believers. It is said that he relies on the Heart of Life to run the church and absorb faith.”

“Therefore, as long as you hold it, you can sense the existence of the Heart of Life in the city of Segos.”

Is this the quest item?

The players looked at the crystal ball curiously and put it away solemnly.

“Segus City is far from Shen’en Town. Even if you take a carriage, it will take at least three days to get there.”

“I will arrange a carriage for you, the adults, to take you there.”

“Your identities are special. Please do not reveal your true identities. I will also take good care of Lilia and others and will not let them reveal your identities.”

“However, I can only do this much. If I do more, it will easily attract the attention of the church, and it may bring terrible disasters to the town if I am not careful…”

“So, after arriving in Segus City, everything will depend on you, the adults.”

Rueg said apologetically.

After hearing his words, the players nodded in understanding.

They exchanged some ideas again, and Hulu stood up again and asked:

“Then, Mr. Rueg, do you know how strong the church is? Since we have decided to confront, we still need to know the enemy’s strength as much as possible.”

Rueg did not answer directly after hearing this, but asked back:

“I heard that… you adults killed the forest overlord, the forest giant bear, in just one blow?”

The players nodded.

“Then I guess your strength must have reached the legendary silver level, right?”

Rueger was amazed.

Taking a deep breath, he continued:

“With your silver strength, you are already the top combat power in this world. Even in the church, I’m afraid only the Pope and some senior bishops can reach the silver level…”

“If we are just fighting against the church, I think with your strength, as long as you are careful, it should be enough.”

“However, the real danger is where the God of Creation is.”

As he spoke, Lueg sighed and said worriedly:

“In the inheritance of Mr. Wise, he once mentioned that after the death of all devout believers, their souls will return to the embrace of the Creator God, merge with him, and become a guardian-like existence…”

“In the past few hundred years, even though the church is becoming less and less popular, the number of devout believers who have returned to the embrace of the Creator God has long been a terrifying number…”

“And these beings are likely to be awakened when you adults seize the Heart of Life…”

“If you want everything to go smoothly, then you adults must get the Heart of Life before the guardian is awakened!”

“Otherwise, you may be besieged by a large number of guardians!”

“And at that point, you adults will not only face the church, but also thousands of guardians and the eventually revived Creator God!”

Lueg said solemnly.

However, after hearing his words, the expressions of several players were a little strange.

“A siege?”

“A large number of guardians?”

“Do we need to call for help?”

“This… won’t turn into another war?”

“It shouldn’t be. After all, it’s a five-person mission. If more players join, it will be considered a failure, right?”

They whispered to each other.

However, just as the players were communicating, a familiar voice suddenly came to their minds:

“Don’t worry about the guardians.”

“I have located your coordinates.”

“If things really get out of control, I will use your coordinates to teleport other Chosen Ones to your side.”

“You just need to locate the Heart of Life and find the place where the Creator God is sleeping.”

It was Zero, the God-favored One.

Her voice was cold and calm, but it had a calming power that almost instantly resolved the players’ concerns about the mission.

After hearing Zero’s words, the players looked at each other, and a thought came to their minds at the same time:

Is this… the God-favored One?

Can it be teleported across boundaries?

Awesome!

The players were surprised and excited.

Just as they were relieved by the promise of Zero, the Favored One of God, a new system message appeared in the vision of all online players——
