Game of the World Tree

For the prayers of the believers she heard, Eve did not directly cast her eyes, but returned to the kingdom of God, and directly connected to her own belief grid...

Now His followers are increasing.

It is no longer a good way to run a belief network with one's own soul and godhead as the core, listening to believers' prayers and responding.

Therefore, Eve completely bound the belief network to the kingdom of God early on.

A point to be mentioned here.

As mentioned in many Blue Stars, the power of belief is not without any side effects.

Intuitively speaking, even if it is a true god, if you can hear the prayers of countless believers all the time, including some trivial things, then... even if the spirit of the true god is powerful, it will be annoying to death.

However, this is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is to listen to the prayers of believers for a long time, and let your soul be fully immersed in the power of faith. There is even a risk of being polluted by the true God...

Yes, pollution.

At least... it is a kind of pollution for those who believe in the true God who want to maintain their original heart before becoming a god.

The power of faith is powerful and magical, with infinite possibilities.

Even a true god cannot analyze its mystery, but can only use transformation...

But at the same time, believers who are hidden in the power of faith will also affect the true God itself.

Generally speaking, if the true God is in direct contact with the power of faith for a long time, the soul is likely to be eroded by the faith, and the mentality and thinking will change, and eventually it will gradually become the true God recognized by the believers, not the original self...

Therefore, when the number of his own believers exceeded a certain limit, Eve adopted the methods commonly used by other true gods early.

That is to separate one's own belief network from the divine soul, and take the kingdom of God as the official core of the belief network. You only need to control the belief network through the kingdom of God.

For example, this is equivalent to building a belief computer in the kingdom of God to assist the true God to manage the belief network.

This kingdom of God belief network can even listen to the prayers of ordinary believers and make certain responses on behalf of the true God, and deal with the promotion of ordinary priests or priests, etc...

In this way, the workload is not only reduced, but also the influence of faith on the true God is avoided, and the true God only needs to enjoy the divine power converted from the power of faith provided by the believers.

However, this also has disadvantages.

That is to maintain the belief network of the kingdom of God, which requires a lot of consumption.

And the more believers, the greater the consumption, resulting in a lower rate of converting the power of faith into divine power...

This is also why many true gods with powerful divine power have a terrifying number of believers.

There is no way, if you want to maintain a strong divine power, you must also maintain your id, and in the case of a very low conversion rate of divine power, more believers are bound to be needed.

And more believers means a greater burden and a lower conversion rate...

Such a vicious circle has also led to the extremely terrifying number of believers needed by a powerful True God...

Of course, letting the Kingdom of God handle the prayers and responses of believers on its own is only for ordinary believers.

The true God will definitely treat some specific prayers and special believers, and listen to them personally.

Well, in a sense, in fact, the game system Eve made is equivalent to a special belief network, or the kind connected to his real belief network...

By the way, the reason why Eve dared to appear on the stage of the world of Saiggs openly and openly, and showed her extremely fast growth to the outside world, as well as her almost open act of sheltering the elves; this is not just because of Hela. Taking the blame, He also has a vest, also because Eve considered the special power of faith, and came up with another way to explain his identity and power...

Well, a method that suits him very well, a method that can even explain the similar appearance between him and the predecessor World Tree...

Of course, that's all for later.

Back to the present moment.

As a true god who intends to manage the way of faith for a long time, Eve naturally made certain conditions for hearing the prayers of believers in person.

And her settings are either the prayers of mad believers and above, or the desperate prayers of believers who are in great danger...

Apparently, through the vaguely perceived emotions of prayer believers, this time it was the latter.

Therefore, Eve must have to check the situation in person.

And... He also probably knows who it should be this time.

Consciousness is connected to the belief network of the kingdom of God, and Eve also quickly sees the praying believers and sees their environment.

It's a jagged foothills.

And a dozen or so hooded elves were huddled under a dead tree, their faces pale.

These elves were old and young, the young were guarded in the center, while the young and old stood outside with weapons, and many of them were already injured.

Among them, a blond female elf was lying in the middle of the crowd.

Her face was pale, even a little gray, it was obvious that she had consumed too much magic power, or that she had been attacked after forcibly using some powerful skills.

And her appearance has long been listed on Eve's list.

Selena Wind.

She is one of the top executives of the Oak Hand, and is a good friend with Alice Gale, the saint of life. She is active in the human world all the year round, saving the elves and half-elf compatriots hunted by humans.

Selena was captured after a mission and imprisoned in the Slave Merchant Guild in Maple City, Holy Mania Empire, and was finally rescued by the player. (See chapters 288-290 for details)

She also returned to the forest of elves once, but she finally gave up her comfortable life and decided to go to the human world to continue to work hard to save her compatriots.

It can be said that this is an elf believer that Eve admires very much.

And among the prayers that Eve received just now, she was the clearest one.

By the way, although her faith did not reach the level of a mad believer, she was still at the level of a senior devout believer, and Eve had high expectations for her.

After she returned to the Elf Forest, Eve also listed her as one of the objects of her attention, and from time to time she would turn her attention to see the current status of the Oak Hand Organization through her.

Of course, because he has been worrying about the Oros demi-plane recently, He has not paid attention to each other for many days.

However, Eve had already decided that once Selena's faith reached the level of a mad believer, she would be accepted as a favored one...

And now, when Eve's eyes saw the desolate mountains around him, he frowned slightly:

"Dark Mountains? Isn't Selina active in the human world? How can she be in the Dark Mountains?"

That's right.

The location where these dozen elves are located is the Dark Mountains!

Eve was a little stunned for a while. I don't know how they appeared here. After all... No matter from which point of view, the Holy Mannia Empire is too far away from the Dark Mountains, and there is a forest of elves in the middle. .

However, when Eve noticed the clothes on these elves, her heart moved slightly.

Different from the elegant and solemn imperial costumes that Eve is familiar with, the hoods of these elves have some slightly gorgeous patterns, and these exaggerated and gorgeous patterns are another human kingdom in the south, second only to the strength. Only the Kingdom of Ayres of the Holy Mania Empire will be popular.

These elves... from the kingdom of Ayres!

In an instant, Eve guessed their identities.

At the same time, He also had some speculation about Selena's actions.

Because He also received prayers from the believers of the Oak Hand Organization some time ago, it is said that they are going to the Kingdom of Ayres to rescue the tribe.

The Kingdom of Ayres is on the east side of the Death Desert, south of the Abundant Plain, and is also halfway across the Dark Mountain Range from the Elf Forest.

If you want to return to the Forest of Spirits, you really need to pass here while avoiding the human world.

It seems that this is another batch of elves rescued by the Oak Hand.

However, since Eve's player army defeated the half-orc army, the Dark Mountains have become Eve's back garden in a sense. Logically speaking...it should be relatively safe.

As long as they don't go deep into those dangerous places and don't encounter those powerful monsters, the elves can completely return to the forest of elves through here.

But... now it seems that they are obviously attacked, or... chased and killed.

You must know that after the return of the Oak Hand, the strength of its members has long since changed.

Not to mention anything else, Selena alone has actually risen to the peak of black iron, and is only one step away from silver.

If they want to pose a threat to them, I am afraid that among the enemies, there are likely to be middle-level professionals.

Is it human?

Eve narrowed her eyes slightly.

With the change in his state of mind, for a while, the entire kingdom of God was a little turbulent.

But soon, Eve saw the enemies of the elves.

That's more than 30 ugly guys with big swords and mace...

"Half-orc?"

Eve was surprised.

That's right.

Half-orc.

Those who caught up and surrounded the elves turned out to be orcs!

Not only that, but their strength is generally relatively high, and the strongest one turned out to be a half-orc warrior with a lower rank of silver.

This was really beyond Eve's expectations.

You must know that after the battle of Black Dragon Castle, the players directly annihilated the 30,000 army of the Orcs, which was enough to hurt the Orcs with a total population of only a few hundred thousand.

Not to mention, even their king and chief priest were damaged here.

After that battle, the orcs shrank their sphere of influence and returned to the desert of death, and even Uller, the God of Iron Hanhan, became a lot more honest.

Especially after the war in the underground world gradually spread, Uller became more peaceful.

But now, Orcs have appeared in the Dark Mountains again?

They also attacked the returning elves?

Really dare!

The current players are no longer the players they used to be!

For a while, Eve narrowed her eyes, her breath a little dangerous.

"I don't look down on that shabby place in the desert of death. I'm too lazy to pay attention to you for the time being, and you're jumping up again?"

"Or do you still feel no pain after 30,000 troops died? Do you want me to do it?"

However, even though he said so, there were some doubts and some vigilance in his heart.

The orcs who had contracted their sphere of influence suddenly entered the Dark Mountains again and attacked the elves. This must have happened somewhere he didn't know.

And, definitely not a good thing.

Of course, it is also possible that these half-orcs are just too hot-headed and want to carry forward the racial tradition of plundering.

But in any case, since he has received the prayers of the believers, and it is also about the safety of the elves, Eve will definitely not sit idly by.

When the Flame Tribe returned, He had already made a mistake.

Although it was also because of his low strength at the time, after all, it was because of his improper operation that some elves died...

Every elf is precious to Eve.

Since He is now stronger than it used to be, it is natural not to watch the believers being bullied.

Even if you use divine power from such a long distance, it will consume a lot.

Thinking of this, Eve decisively separated a part of her power and cast it across the void...

...

Dark Mountains.

The elves looked at the orcs surrounding them with anger.

And in the anger, there is a trace of despair and unwillingness.

"I thought it was the last journey left before going home, but I didn't expect to meet a half-orc..."

"These bastards!"

"Didn't it say that the Emerald Mountains have been recovered by the clansmen? Why do orcs still appear?"

"Don't be afraid, Lord Goddess of Life will definitely bless us with safety..."

"Goddess of life? Hmph... Although she has inherited the priesthood of the mother goddess, in my mind, only our mother goddess, the great world tree, is truly worthy of my belief!"

"However, the mother goddess has really fallen, and I heard that the goddess of life, but our tribe is a god..."

"But the goddess of life is not the mother god after all..."

"Or we are too weak, if we can be stronger..."

"Is it the only way to go here?"

The voices of the elves were very confused and desperate.

But listening to the words of the clansmen, Selena, who was lying in the center, couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Her Majesty the Mother Goddess stood at the front desk as the goddess of life, and it was indeed a lot safer.

But... it also increases the difficulty of preaching.

However, without returning to the forest of elves, she could not tell the clansmen that the goddess of life is the crown of the mother goddess.

Everything must be considered for the safety of the crown.

After coughing a few times, she said with difficulty:

"Don't despair, the goddess is merciful, and this is already the sphere of influence of the majesty. We pray to him, and we will definitely get his response..."

Pray to the Mother God when you encounter difficulties. In Selina's view, this is really a very sad thing.

However, there is no way.

weak...

It's the original sin.

If only I could be stronger...

At this moment, Selena's heart has never been stronger.

"Hehe, pray? The goddess of life? Is that the goddess Eve?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a rude and somewhat mocking voice rang out.

It was the leader of the Orcs who surrounded the elves, the Orc warrior with silver strength.

"It's just a false god who stole the priesthood of the Father. The Father will let him know the price of angering the true God. His time is running out..."

"Today, you are all going to die!"

he sneered.

"Uh... don't you stay alive?"

The other half-orcs hesitated.

"Leave a pig! This is the high priest's request! All the elves have to die! No one can be let go, and there will be one more undead demon from the false god and the god of death!"

The orc leader growled.

And after hearing his words, the elves were very angry:

"Pseudo-god? You slandered the real god so much, be careful to attract the wrath of gods and be punished by heaven!"

"God damn it?"

The orc leader sneered again.

He said contemptuously:

"A false god is a false god. In front of the real god, he will pay the price..."

"As for the scourge..."

He opened his arms, looked at the sky, and mocked:

"I'm standing here, but I'm coming? But it's just a false god who steals the priesthood of the Father..."

As soon as he finished speaking, along with a loud bang, a thunder of purple light fell from the sky and hit him directly...
