Game of the World Tree - Chapter 689

Chapter 686 Finn

Finn is a native of the West.

He likes the clear and winding stream at the entrance of his village. He likes to go hunting in the nearby forest with his father every day, and sit on the earthen slope at the head of the village in the evening and watch the golden red sun slowly sink to the west…

He has also listened to the stories of extraordinary people told by wandering poets, and fantasized that he would become a powerful adventurer one day.

That is why, after his parents died, he decided to go to the big city alone.

He came to the nearby city of Augs, where the country boy saw the prosperity he had never seen before.

In order to make a living, he worked as a groom, a waiter, and a porter…

The traces of time gradually smoothed the edges of the boy, and the once innocent boy gradually became a mature and stable young man.

Although life was difficult, although the days in Augs were not good, although the huge pressure and hardship always tortured the people struggling at the bottom…

But as a down-to-earth person who was willing to work hard, Finn finally succeeded in saving three gold pounds.

He planned to escape from this depressing city in a few months, and use the huge sum of money to build a beautiful small yard in the town near his village, and then find a lovely girl to marry.

Oh, and he also wanted to grow a pot of beautiful morning glory, and then show it off to Uncle Hans in the village.

Finn had thought about everything for the future.

Unfortunately, the war broke out so suddenly.

Before he could escape from Ogus City, Ogus City was captured by the Red Maple Kingdom, and Finn, who was in good health, was also captured by the kingdom army and became a soldier defending the city. Even the gold pounds he had saved were looted.

His freedom was restricted and he was forced to convert.

Although Finn himself didn’t care about faith, he was still terrified to be asked to believe in a terrifying existence that was said to be an evil god…

Finn wanted to escape for a while.

However, when he saw those conscripted soldiers who planned to escape being severely punished by the nobles, or even beaten to death, he finally gave up the idea…

He stayed in Ogus City numbly and blankly.

Until the elves arrived.

These strange creatures were more beautiful, noble, and powerful than the legends.

They were like gods descending from heaven. It took them less than a day to completely capture the city of Ogus, and Finn, one of the defenders, became a prisoner.

However, although he became a prisoner, Finn was relieved.

Because he finally didn’t have to face those evil god believers who talked about how to kill people.

He thought he would continue to be recruited as a soldier, but the elves just let him spit on the hateful evil god statue and let him go.

He did this without hesitation.

If he was not afraid of those evil evil god believers, he would have wanted to do it a long time ago!

After regaining his freedom, even his gold pounds that were looted by the nobles were sent back by the elves.

Not only that, the elves even gave him an extra gold pound as travel expenses to go home.

That was a gold pound! He saved up for almost ten years and only saved three…

It was impossible to say that he was not grateful.

“Merciful and generous elf, how can I repay you? Without your help, I am afraid I would not be free now…”

Finn asked the elf who helped him excitedly.

However, the elf just smiled:

“We don’t need to repay, but… if you have time, are you interested in learning about the merciful goddess and savior, the great Eve?”

“Eve?”

Finn was slightly stunned.

The elf’s expression became serious:

“She is the great goddess of life, the mother of nature admired by everyone…”

As he said, he took out a thick holy book from his arms…

…

Finn soon learned about the faith of the goddess of life Eve from the elf.

What surprised him was that there was such a true god in the world. He loved life. In his eyes, all things were equal. His believers were also constantly struggling to achieve equality and pursue a better life…

There was no humble life, and the nobles were not noble. Everyone should be equal.

At this time, he knew why the elves distributed the wealth of the nobles to the civilians after conquering the city of Ogus.

At this time, he also knew why, in just half a day, the attitude of most citizens in the city towards the elves changed from vigilance and curiosity to enthusiasm and support.

At this moment, Finn had a strong curiosity about the teachings of life.

“Master Elf, can you… can you tell me more about the teachings of the goddess of life?”

he asked excitedly.

The elf was slightly stunned, and then smiled more cordially:

“Oh! Of course! My dear Finn, brave partner and friend!”

…

Finn didn’t expect that one day he would take the initiative to become a devout believer of the true God.

In less than half a day, he was completely convinced by the teachings of the Church of Life, worshiped under the statue of the goddess, and became a new believer of life.

He no longer decided to return to the village, but planned to stay and participate in the cause of the elves, Miss Sophia’s cause, for the future of the entire territory, to create a beautiful world without nobles!

To this end, he took up arms again and became a militia.

However, this time the young man was full of energy and faith!

The war was not over.

In addition, the city of Ogus soon ushered in the counterattack of the Red Maple Kingdom army.

Tens of thousands of troops surrounded the city, and the battle started again.

However, what surprised and angered Finn was that he actually saw those familiar figures from his own village on the battlefield…

those ordinary villagers, they… they were actually threatened with the lives of their relatives by the nobles of the Red Maple Kingdom using blood contracts, and forced to participate in the battle as cannon fodder in the siege!

Looking at the sad and desperate expression of Grandpa Hans, whose granddaughter died and whose grandson’s life was threatened, and the relieved eyes of other villagers when they died, Finn’s heart was filled with anger.

“Master Elf, please save everyone!”

He prayed to the commander of the elves, the handsome elf ranger (hunter).

“There is only one person in the Elf Forest who can invalidate the blood contract, and that is the goddess of life, Her Majesty Eve.”

“So… I can only pray to the goddess in order to get her response.”

The elf sighed.

Goddess!

Pray to the goddess!

A glimmer of hope flashed in Finn’s eyes.

He couldn’t bear to watch those familiar voices die in this way, and he wanted to save everyone.

The young man didn’t hesitate, and immediately knelt down in the direction of the temple, and prayed in a low voice:

“Merciful and great Her Majesty Eve, please save Grandpa Hans and the others…”

The city of Ogus is very large.

In addition to some citizens, many of the militiamen who chose to defend the city with the elves were young men who were conscripted from nearby villages and towns.

They also saw familiar figures in the crowd attacking the city. They were stunned and furious, and after the anger, they were as frightened and confused as Finn.

As Finn prayed, someone soon joined him and began to pray devoutly in the direction of the temple.

For a while, people praying towards the temple could be seen everywhere on the city wall. Even the citizens in the city fell into silence after hearing the news, and spontaneously participated in the prayer.

The nobles of Ogus City had already fled, died, or been punished. Who of those who still live in the city is not a civilian, and who does not have relatives and friends outside the city?

In addition to the grief of the rabbit’s death, more and more people joined the prayer team with the hope of the goddess of life.

For a time, a large number of civilians knelt down, and the prayers resounded in the city, forming a sharp contrast with the shouts and killings on the city wall.

Looking at this scene, the eyes of the elves gradually became complicated. The leading elf commander sighed and said:

“Don’t brush anymore, just put it on the city wall and stun it. The siege is not our enemy now, but the possible believers in the future.” (Elf language)

After hearing his words, the elves fighting on the city wall had different expressions.

Some nodded in agreement and replaced the blades in their hands with the backs of the knives. Some sighed and began to prepare control and hypnosis magic…

Of course, there were also objections:

“Boss Chan! There’s no need to be so sensitive, right? It’s just a game.” (Elf)

The elf commander glanced at the elf who was speaking:

“New players in the second public beta, right?” (Elf)

The retorted elf nodded:

“So what?” (Elf)

The elf commander sneered:

“Well, even if it’s a game, even if it’s a bit utilitarian, how much experience can these people provide you? Even goblins can’t compare, right? If they become believers or even helpers in the future, how much help can they bring to you?” (Elf)

“Since you second-test players are not used to enjoying Elf Kingdom without other virtual games, then you should calculate it yourself!” (Elf)

The retorted elf was stunned.

Then, he was silent for a moment and honestly replaced the blade with the back of the knife.

Finn didn’t understand the conversation between the elves.

However, including him, many people noticed that the elves had changed their fighting style.

Seeing the choices of these beautiful creatures, everyone’s eyes were filled with gratitude and respect.

What a kind and benevolent existence!

Only the goddess of life can have such a family, right?

People were moved and knelt down again in the direction of the temple, praying devoutly.

Finn kept praying and bowing.

He had never been so eager for the response of the gods as he was now.

He had never knelt down so devoutly.

The murmuring prayers gathered together and resounded over the city, and could even faintly compete with the shouts of killing on the city wall…

And as everyone prayed, suddenly, a golden power suddenly rose high in the direction of the center of the city, and a soft and warm energy spread rapidly…

Finn looked up blankly and was shocked to see that the direction of the temple suddenly bloomed with golden light, and dots of dreamy golden photons began to dance throughout the city.

The photons were like life, and like flying snowflakes. They fell from the sky and landed on people.

At that moment, Finn felt a warm power spreading to his limbs. The fatigue in his body seemed to be swept away in an instant. Even his anxious mood was inexplicably calmed.

“Miracle…! This… This is a miracle!”

“The goddess has responded to us! This must be the goddess’ response to us!”

“Praise life! Praise nature! Praise the great goddess Eve!”

The people who prayed said excitedly.

The elves were also surprised, but soon they turned into excitement:

“Fuck! It’s really the power of the goddess!” (Elf language)

“Wow! It turns out that if we pray sincerely together, can we really attract the attention of the goddess?!” (Elf language)

Looking at the golden photons flying all over the sky, Finn was excited.

His eyes kept moving with the flying photons, and his eyes became more and more pious.

When he saw those photons falling on Grandpa Hans, and the symbol of the blood covenant on Grandpa Hans’ wrist gradually faded and finally disappeared completely… he couldn’t help but exclaimed:

“Blood covenant… Blood covenant disappeared!”

Attracted by Finn’s voice, everyone quickly paid attention to the villagers who were knocked unconscious and controlled by the elves.

“Really… Really disappeared!”

“Goddess! This is Goddess Eve who heard our prayers!”

“Great and merciful Queen Eve, thank you for your gift, thank you for your gift!”

People were excited, looking at the temple with fanatical expressions, and many people even had tears in their eyes.

However, at this moment, the whole sky suddenly darkened slightly, and a heart-pounding fear rose in everyone’s heart.

Finn subconsciously raised his head and looked at the sky, only to see that thick dark clouds had gathered in the sky since he didn’t know when.

The clouds kept rolling, and lightning flashed with purple light, accompanied by thunder.

Suddenly, the clouds dispersed, and a towering giant appeared in the sky.

His eyes were cold, ruthless, cruel, and chaotic.

Seeing the terrifying giant, Finn’s face turned pale instantly and he collapsed to the ground.

That image was exactly the same as the idol he had been forced to believe in under the threat of the professional soldiers of the Red Maple Kingdom…

“Yellow… Dusk and Sunset Evil God…”

He murmured tremblingly.

The clouds continued to roll, and the giant stretched out his palm and slapped it towards the ground.

In an instant, the whole world was shrouded in a huge shadow.

Looking at the huge palm that was getting closer and closer, Finn’s face turned pale, and an unprecedented fear rose in his heart.

At this moment, he remembered the legend of the annihilation of the imperial army…

However, just when the palm was about to fall on the temporary converted Temple of Life in the city, a golden sword light suddenly flashed from the void and slashed on the palm!

Seeing everyone’s comments on the previous chapter, I thought about it and realized that I didn’t write it carefully enough. I actually wanted to write it carefully, but I was afraid that everyone would think it was watery, so I wanted to skip it quickly and go directly to the protagonist’s appearance.

However. I just overlooked that the details of this plot are actually the most important.

After thinking about it, I made up this chapter of details, but in fact, this chapter should be written before the previous chapter.

I really like everyone’s valuable suggestions. Although I won’t listen to the suggestions as soon as I see them, I will think about them carefully and reflect on them carefully.
