Game of the World Tree - Chapter 599
599. Chapter 597: Statue of the Goddess
Like other buildings in Sandstorm City, the temple is also built of obsidian. The black main building is very solemn.
Around the temple, there are more flowers and green grass planted, and the trees are shady, full of vigor and vitality.
And right above the temple, the symbol of Uller, the god of winter and hunting, which was once in Tonglu’s memory, has been completely erased, and replaced by a scepter-like holy light.
Tonglu, who has done his homework in advance, knows that it is the symbol of Eve, the goddess of life.
The gate of the temple is very large, at least from Tonglu’s perspective, it is magnificent enough. Its scale seems to have been expanded a lot compared to his memory.
However, looking at the elves coming and going, you will know why.
The enthusiasm for faith in the Temple of Life seems to be quite high. There are new elves coming in and out almost every moment. Under such circumstances, it seems reasonable to expand the gate of the temple.
Looking at the elves coming and going, Tonglu’s heart is full of emotion.
In the world of Segos, the flow of believers in the Temple of the True God often also represents the cohesion of the faith of the True God.
The more cohesive the faith of the True God is, the more devout the believers are, and the more believers go to the temple to pray.
And the Temple of Life, which has so many believers that it can be called lively, has only been seen in the Holy Mannia Empire’s country, Mannia City.
But Mannia City is the holy city of the Eternal Church, and it is the holy land of all human religions. It is completely different from the nature of the Sandstorm City in front of it.
You know, Sandstorm City is just a new city that the elves have occupied for a few months…
And such a city actually has so many devout believers, which is really surprising.
Thinking of this, Tonglu couldn’t help but sigh in his heart:
No wonder the Goddess of Life can rise so quickly, no wonder the elves can defeat the orcs so quickly.
Such a strong cohesion of faith is probably crushing compared to the various True God churches.
Alas…
If only the faith of the dwarves could be like the Church of Life.
If that were the case, the former dwarven pantheon would not have fallen apart, and the dwarven civilization would not have split.
Tonglu sighed in his heart.
“Lord Tonglu, we are here.”
The warm and friendly voice of the elven girl came from his ear, pulling Tonglu’s thoughts back.
He retracted his gaze from the temple, his expression slightly solemn, and nodded gently.
The door of the carriage was opened from the outside, and two elven priests in white priest robes enthusiastically welcomed Tonglu down.
“Lord Tonglu, Lord Thranduil has been waiting for you in the temple for a long time.”
The elven priest smiled and almost stretched out his hand to shake it excitedly.
The smile was extremely kind, so kind that Tonglu even had the illusion that the other party was trying to please him…
Tonglu shook his head vigorously to get rid of this inexplicable illusion from his mind.
But at the same time, the emotion in his heart became deeper:
the elves are really a warm and friendly race…
Moreover, the church of the elves is so efficient!
As soon as he arrived at the temple, it seemed that all the elves knew he was coming.
Not only that, the elves were very considerate in their reception, and even understood his urgency. They didn’t use official language or go through complicated interview procedures like other True God churches… They
were efficient, enthusiastic, and pragmatic.
Tonglu nodded secretly.
In a subtle way, he had a better impression of the elves.
Of course, if Tonglu knew that this was just the moment he entered Sandstorm City, the relevant players received a reminder to trigger the hidden task, and wanted to complete the hidden task quickly and smoothly…
maybe he wouldn’t think so.
After tidying up his clothes, Tonglu smiled friendly at the elves who were receiving him, and then walked into the temple under the guidance of the elf priest.
The interior of the temple was very large, and it seemed to have been expanded. There were also many branch temples, and in each branch temple, there were many elves praying devoutly.
Tonglu could even hear their enthusiastic praises:
“Praise nature, praise life, praise the great goddess Eve!”
One after another.
There were still many elves praying, but the content of their wishes was a bit strange, such as “Make sure I draw a golden legend”, “Make sure I draw a top-quality skill”, “Don’t give me blank equipment anymore” and so on…
I couldn’t understand them.
But even so, Tonglu could still feel the elves’ high enthusiasm and sincere piety.
Of course, if he knew that most of these praying elves and the elves coming in and out of the temple gate were actually players who went to the temple to pray and enter the exchange mall…
maybe he wouldn’t think so.
Passing through the main hall and side halls of the temple, which were solemn yet full of vigor, Tonglue, led by the elven priest, came to a side hall at the back of the temple.
“Lord Thranduil is waiting for you inside, please go in.”
The elven priest said enthusiastically.
“Thank you.”
Tonglue nodded gratefully.
Then, he pushed open the door and walked in.
The door behind him slowly closed, and Tonglue found himself in a room similar to a study.
In the center of the room was an elven-style desk, and the bookshelf behind it was filled with all kinds of books. On one side of the bookshelf, a tall male elf stood with his back to the door.
He had beautiful long silver hair and wore a traditional elven gown with the symbol and pattern of the goddess of life painted on it.
Hearing the sound of the door, he put down the book in his hand and slowly turned around.
A pair of blue-purple eyes as bright as stars looked at Tonglu, and a gentle smile appeared on his handsome face that even the dwarf warrior couldn’t help but be stunned for a second:
“You are Mr. Tonglu of the Dwarf Kingdom, hello, I am the current lord of Sandstorm City – Thranduil Moonlight.”
It turned out to be the elven royal family!
I didn’t expect that there is an elven royal family now!
Although the opponent’s strength is only above the silver level, Tonglu did not dare to underestimate the opponent at all, because the identity of the royal family is known to be quite high among the elves!
Not to mention, if the information is correct, this is also a god-favored person, and the god-favored person can summon the power of the true god, and his true strength cannot be judged by the power he shows.
At this point, Tonglue’s expression became serious, he bowed formally, and said in a deep voice:
“Yes, Lord Thranduil, I am Tonglue, from the Dwarf Kingdom, entrusted by the Pope of our National Church, to seek the help of the elves to help seal the evil forces under the Dwarf Kingdom…”
Thranduil nodded gently and smiled:
“I have received the oracle of Her Majesty the Goddess, Her Majesty the Goddess has long known your arrival, and… the Church of Life has also prepared everything.”
His voice was warm and pure, very pleasant to hear.
“Lord Tonglue, please follow me, Her Majesty the Goddess has prepared a powerful artifact, which will be the key to the seal.”
Thranduil said, walking out of the house.
Powerful artifact?
Tonglue’s expression was delighted, and he hurriedly followed.
The door was pushed open, accompanied by a cry of “Ouch!”, and a group of elves who were eavesdropping in the corner fell to the ground.
Thranduil’s mouth twitched.
“Hahaha, Lord Thranduil, you guys chat, you guys chat, we have things to do, we’ll leave first.”
The elves laughed, then stood up and tumbled, and dispersed.
Thranduil: …
Copper Furnace: …
“Ahem, don’t mind, the Chosen One is sometimes like this.”
Thranduil said with a light cough.
The Chosen One?
Copper Furnace was slightly stunned.
He seemed to have heard this word somewhere, but he couldn’t remember it for a while…
Following Thranduil, Copper Furnace soon came to the main hall of the temple.
In the main hall, there is a statue of a goddess that is five meters tall. She wears a crown, holds a scepter, and wears a noble and gorgeous robe. Even if it is just a statue, you can see that she is dignified and beautiful, and she is so beautiful that she can overwhelm the country.
That is the statue of the second generation of life and nature, the goddess Eve.
Thranduil came to the statue and prayed devoutly.
For a moment, the temple was bright and the ethereal hymns came from afar.
The aura of sacred majesty filled the entire hall. Under Tonglu’s awed and expectant gaze, dots of golden light condensed in front of Thranduil.
After a while, the hymn disappeared, the aura faded, the light in the temple slowly dissipated, and in front of Thranduil, a small statue of the goddess about thirty to forty centimeters tall appeared. There
were still dots of light flowing on the statue, and it was obvious that it had received some kind of blessing from the true God.
Thranduil gently picked up the statue and placed it in Tonglu’s hands.
“Lord Tonglu, this is the artifact bestowed by Her Majesty the Goddess, and it is also the key to sealing the evil power.”
He said with a smile.
Artifact?
This… isn’t a statue?
Tonglu was slightly stunned.
I am very tired today, so I can only update briefly. _(:з」∠)_ Sorry…
