Game of the World Tree - Chapter 666
Chapter 663: One Month
Following the guidance of the wind, Sophia entered the Temple of Life.
This was her first time to enter the temple of a true god other than the Lord of Eternity, and it was also the only time she took the initiative to enter the temple of a god, so she felt a little uneasy.
Unlike the always solemn and quiet Church of Eternity, there seemed to be more believers coming and going in the Temple of Life…
Here, almost every moment, there were excited elf Chosen Ones entering the temple to pray. They worshiped and prayed fanatically to the holy goddess statue, with great piety.
Looking at these sincere elf believers, even Sophia was faintly infected…
This flourishing faith was enough to show the high reputation of the Goddess of Life, and it was enough to show the firmness of the elves’ faith.
And this also made Sophia respect the Goddess of Life even more in her heart.
In her opinion, if the believers were not really allowed to live a happy life, such a grand occasion would never occur in the temple.
Of course, this is also because the half-elf girl does not know that although the elf Chosen bears the title of the goddess’s followers, in fact, they are not related to the true believers. Most of them are just pseudo-believers who are greedy for the goddess’s appearance and the exchange mall…
and the reason why they pray devoutly in the temple is just to open the exchange mall to exchange items or participate in the prize pool lottery.
In a sense, the relationship between the goddess and the players is a bit like “it doesn’t cost money anyway, so believe a little bit.”
But even this belief is mostly more of a booing or “liking”, and it can’t be called a “belief” as a life dogma.
The moment the girl entered the temple, she also became the focus of the players’ eyes. For
a while, many players cast curious glances.
Looking at the elf Chosen who were curiously looking at her, Sophia’s expression showed a hint of hesitation.
While she was hesitating whether she needed to ask someone who the priest was, a cheerful female voice rang out from the side:
“You are Sophia, right?”
Sophia’s heart moved, and she looked at the source of the voice, and saw an elf girl wearing a priest’s robe.
She had blonde hair and blue eyes, and her delicate and beautiful appearance was definitely the most outstanding among the elves.
Next to the elf girl, there was also a male elf priest standing. On his shoulder sat a cute “elf” who was only 30 cm tall and had a pair of butterfly-like wings behind him. He was looking at Sophia curiously with his pure big eyes, while chewing an unknown nut happily.
What kind of cute creature is this?
Sophia was immediately attracted.
Seeing her surprised sight, the elf girl who greeted her smiled slightly.
She performed an elf etiquette and said enthusiastically:
“Let me introduce myself. I am Tingting, one of the silver priests of the Gray Harbor Branch of the Church of Life.”
After that, she pointed to the male elf next to her:
“This is Xia Mu, the future chief priest of the Gray Harbor Branch. On his shoulder is his partner, the elemental fairy Dingdang.”
Hearing Tingting’s words, Sophia was refreshed.
She looked solemn, performed a noble etiquette to the two, and said seriously:
“I am Sophia, I want to find you… listen to the teachings of Her Majesty the Goddess of Life…”
Tingting and Xia Mu looked at each other and smiled slightly.
“Of course, we have been waiting here for a long time.”
She said happily.
After saying that, she touched Natsume’s shoulder, and Natsume’s hand flashed with light, and a pile of thick books appeared. The gold-plated characters on the cover of the top book, “The Holy Book of Life”, shone with a faint glow, and the words “Limitations of Feudalism”, “Religion and Freedom”, “Awakening of the People” and so on could be vaguely seen below
… “This is the learning material we specially prepared for Miss Sophia. I believe that after reading these, you will have a clearer understanding of the future path…”
Zhu Zhu showed a smiling expression.
…
After seeing Sophia meet Zhu Zhu and Natsume through the game network, and getting the learning (brainwashing) materials that He specially issued tasks for players to sort out, Eve was satisfied and returned to the Kingdom of God.
Zhu Zhu is considered a very outstanding priest among the players.
Compared with Demacia, which preaches virally, the believers she deceived generally have a deeper faith.
If she were to teach Sophia, it would be perfect.
“I hope… I won’t be disappointed.”
Returning to her throne, Eve said to herself expectantly.
He still had some expectations for Sophia.
If he could cultivate a devout believer, pry open the foundation of the Eternal Church’s faith, and even bring more believers to himself, it would be great.
Although the Elf Forest is not as good as she said when she was pretending to be a vest, compared with the sphere of influence of the Eternal Church, Eve thinks that her church is still much stronger.
Of course, what equality and pursuits she just talked about with the girl are actually just rhetoric.
After all… In the extraordinary world where gods exist, what kind of equality can we talk about!
At most, it is just relative fairness among believers.
And it is the equality and fairness “given” by the gods…
There is no way, this is how the world is.
But at the same time, Eve is not completely aimless.
Although he also cuts believers’ leeks, he has the power of [Absorbing], and as an ancient god, he is obviously more tolerant to believers than other true gods…
Although he cannot give true equality and justice, at least… In this world of comparison, Eve feels that she can still do better than other true gods.
Not to mention that there is a bug of the player who enjoys being a coolie, helping to bear part of the burden.
On top of this, mixed with some theories on Blue Star, at the moment when the society of the human kingdom in the Segos world has obviously developed to the limit of feudalism, and is restricted by the confinement of extraordinary power and has been unable to break through… It is still possible to form a set of theoretical data that can disintegrate the foundation of the rule of the human kingdom.
The rule of the human kingdom is interdependent with the Eternal Church.
If the existing rule of human society is deconstructed, the entire Eternal Church will also be greatly impacted, and the impact on the Eternal Church will shake the foundation of the faith of the Eternal Lord, and then directly affect Eve’s future struggle with Him…
And this is Eve’s real purpose!
Of course, Eve had not studied the various theories on Blue Star in depth. In her previous life, she was a college graduate who had only graduated a few years ago and was often addicted to virtual games. She knew nothing about professional theories…
So, when she was fooling Sophia, she could only say some ambiguous words.
But there are always strong people among the players.
Professional matters should be left to professionals.
Eve just had to wait for the flowers to bloom.
After handing Sophia over to Ting Ting and Natsume, Eve left her alone for the time being.
The half-elf girl also settled down in the Temple of Life in Gray Harbor, and followed Ting Ting to learn the teachings of the Church of Life, as well as all kinds of strange theoretical knowledge…
Before she knew it, almost a month had passed.
During this month, the Elf Forest had undergone significant changes again…
More and more second-test players were promoted to the Black Iron level, and the fastest person had already obtained a silver job transfer quota and became a silver boss.
Among all the summoned players, a total of 560,000, more than 450,000 have become Black Iron players.
The number of silver players has also exploded, doubling from more than 4,000 to more than 9,000, just one step away from 10,000.
Of course, the cost is also huge.
That is, the growth of Eve’s divine power has slowed down significantly, and most of it is used to support players and maintain the operation of the game.
But even so, with the war missions, the players’ killing in various copies, and the more and more believers providing the power of faith, Eve’s divine power value has reached more than 22,000 points.
There are only more than 7,000 points left to become a powerful divine power.
An interesting thing is that after the players made a big fuss in Morning Star City, the summoning statues that Eve secretly released on the black market became completely popular. Recently, Eve has received more and more elf summons… Most
of them are from the forces of the human world, but there are also many other intelligent races, and the purpose of the summons is all the same – that is, to be a thug.
In this regard, Eve naturally accepted it with a smile.
Anyway, except for Sophia, who has ulterior motives, the cost of summoning elves by others is paid by the summoner. It is not a waste to not respond, or to kill people to gain “experience”, and to train soldiers by the way…
If you are really lucky and encounter the evil god, it will provide Eve with an appetizer.
Therefore, all elf summons are regarded by Eve as battlefield tasks.
While bringing players a rich gaming experience, it also allows the overall strength of players to reach a new height.
Eve believes that if the current players come out in full force, the destructive power they cause will be absolutely terrifying.
Of course, considering the faster and faster recovery of the magic concentration in the world of Segos, the abundance of high-end combat power of other races, and the explosive growth of the extraordinary power of the entire continent, coupled with Eve’s deliberate low profile… the changes in the Elf Forest are not particularly conspicuous.
While the overall strength of the players continues to improve, their exploration of the Segos continent is getting deeper and deeper…
The Titan ruins near Milovia and the Titan ruins in the Death Desert have been explored to the deepest point. Although nothing that makes Eve’s eyes shine has been found, there are still many sub-artifacts that meet the needs of the players.
It is worth mentioning that the players found some items of the elves in the Titan ruins near the coastal city of Milovia. Most of them have been abandoned for hundreds and thousands of years, and there are no signs of fighting. It seems that they were deliberately abandoned…
This matter made Eve pay a little attention and wait for the players’ follow-up exploration.
In addition, more than 70% of the entire Elf Forest has been mapped by players. The only unmapped area is the mountainous north…
There are already full-level players who have formed teams and started looking for the remaining two large elven city ruins in the northern region, Crystal City and Frozen Valley.
Players have traveled to all areas where Eve has opened up permissions…
There are even many people who have formed “mercenary groups” and joined the war between the Border Earl and the Empire’s expeditionary army in Maple Leaf Territory.
Of course, not many people do this, because running to the resurrection point is troublesome, and only those players who love mercenary adventures will do so. Inexplicably,
the reputation of the elven mercenaries has been made famous from another angle, and a lot of information about Maple Leaf Territory has been collected, which is an unexpected gain.
However, the development of the rebellion in Maple Leaf Territory of the Holy Mania Empire was somewhat beyond Eve’s expectations.
Eve thought that with the support of the Eternal Church and the huge population base, the battle between the Empire’s expeditionary army and the Border Lord rebels should have a significant upper hand, even if it would not be an overwhelming victory…
However, half a month ago, when the Empire’s expeditionary army fought the rebels for the first time, it was almost a disastrous defeat.
After three days of fighting, the entire army was defeated, and the 80,000-man army suffered more than 20% casualties.
In response, there was an uproar in the human empire, and even players who often traded with human caravans had heard about it.
It is rumored that Border Lord used an evil beast similar to Behemoth, suspected to have Titan blood, in the war to defeat the Empire’s army.
Not only that, after the victory in the first battle, Border Lord announced in a high-profile manner that the Eternal Church in the territory was expelled, which was considered to be completely torn apart with the church…
This is quite serious…
The Eternal Church has a transcendent status in the human world.
And Border Lord’s actions can be said to have completely confirmed one thing.
That is, he really colluded with other mythological forces.
Only myths can fight against myths… Only with the support of myths can a lord have the confidence to fight against the original faith…
Coupled with the various rumors from Maple Leaf Territory and the various details of the first battle between the two sides, all point to the mysterious existence behind the Border Lord as the resurrected evil god.
Moreover, it is very likely that it is an evil god with Titan blood, or even… a fallen Titan!
Thinking of the various secrets told to her by the dwarves and the forging god Dorft, plus the mysterious Titan ruins in Maple Leaf Territory, Eve suspected that the one who supported the Border Lord behind the scenes was the surviving fallen Titan.
Of course, this is just Eve’s speculation. The war in Maple Leaf Territory may not be over for a while, and the existence behind the Border Lord will sooner or later surface as the war progresses.
Eve did not intend to get involved at this time. After all… the fisherman got the benefit only after the snipe and the clam fought, and the half-elf girl Sophia, who he placed high hopes on, had not yet finished “learning”.
At this time, it is better to watch the battle for the time being.
Just as Eve was sitting quietly watching the turmoil on the continent, a strong throbbing suddenly came from the crown of the projection of the World Tree in the center of the Kingdom of God…
Eve’s heart moved, and she looked towards the center of the Kingdom
of God. The three bone dragons that surrendered to Him were about to “break out of their shells”…

Weird music recommendations…
Speaking of which, since I used NetEase Cloud Music, I don’t know when I listened to music with lyrics…
