The New God Who Stole the Divinity of Life
The golden divine rope was extremely fast as it instantly interrupted the actions of Volker.
The Demigods eyes narrowed thinly as he quickly loosened the divine lock that bound Demacia and instead directed it towards the sudden attack instead.
The two chains of divine power collided, causing a ripple of violent energies which created an expanding booming explosion.
The whole earth trembled in fear with its intensity as all the players felt their ears implode for an instant.
When the dust have finally settled, they looked back at where Volker stood and to their shock found a crater nearly a hundred meters in diameter had appeared in in front him
The structures and Orcs that had originally been there have instantly vaporized into ashes as well.
F*ckthis is a bit too strong, isnt it?
Staring dumbfoundingly at the aftermath of the explosion, the players subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Only at this moment did they truly realized how great the difference was between the power of a demigod in comparison to that of an ordinary person
Volker didnt seem surprised by the sudden attack and the appearance of the unfamiliar divine lock.
He just snorted coldly as his deep gravelly voice imbued with vicissitudes of life echoed through the air,
Hehe, the Hunter Gods speculation was correct. There really is a new deity who had ascended into one of the divine thrones. This divinity has the breath of nature and lifeSure enough, you have indeed stolen the power that should belong to his Majesty!
A new dietys ascendance?
Upon hearing Volkers words, the Orcs were all taken aback for a moment, but soon fell into shock.
A new god has been born to the Elven Forest!
Could it be that this new god has subjugated the elves?
It must be so, otherwise how can you explain their drastic changes!
These long-eared folks have actually changed their faith?
Waitcould it be the World Tree?
Impossible. If it really were the World Tree, then the Hunter God would have already descended long ago along with all his allies
The Orcs discussed the matter amongst themselves, despite never guessing the correct answer.
Well their ignorance cannot be faulted, as the news of the World Trees downfall was widely known.
Unlike the new gods whom completely relies on the power of faith to garner power, Old Ancient Ones can draw power from within the cosmic void just with their divine essence so neither having any sort of believers wouldnt much of a hindrance to these Ancient beings.
The fall of an Ancient One also means the death of their essence, and its almost impossible to rely on the faith of their believers alone for their resurrection unlike the new gods since a divine essence can never be fixed again once its destroyed.
Furthermore, the gods which are hostile to the World Tree still hasnt showed any kind of reaction so far
One falsehood gives birth to another.
Nevertheless, the revival of the World Tree being discovered will likely only be a matter of time due to Ev finally taking actions.
However, despite the potential risks, Ev still decided to make an appearance here by donning a new facade.
After all there isnt much time left for her.
Twenty years may seem long, but for deities like her, this would just be a blink of an eye.
She must seize every opportunity to strengthen herself!
She must at least have the sufficient power to fight back against her enemies once the truth is finally revealed!
Upon hearing the Orcs discussions, the players side were also surprised as well.
Anewly ascended God?
How come theyve never heard any of this before?
When did this newly-born god emerged in their Elven Forest?
Isnt there only one Goddess?
Moreover, everyone could hear the crisp cold snort just now, and it was exactly the same voice of the goddess they heard back when they initially created their characters!
Due to the Saintess Alice forewarning them, the players knew that Eves real identity must be strictly kept secret otherwise, once the news of the World Trees revival is revealed, its very likely to attract the siege of the gods!
And considering the nature of this game, if that actually happens, then the plotline will definitely collapse
Its all game over once the story collapses.
Elven Kingdom has plot and history lines that directly involves player participation.
The developers has also announced a news that in order to enhance the players sense of participation and realism, Elven Kingdom will not reset any of the games storyline progressions no matter what happens.
If a players recklessness causes the entire storyline to collapse, then Elven Kingdom will announce the games closure and suspension of service.
This news has caused an uproar in within Earths various online gaming communities and it further created a wave of heated discussions all throughout the internet.
Many netizens thought that the publishers of Elven Kingdom must be completely crazy to implement such risky game mechanics.
Because for example, wouldnt Elven Kingdom be ruined if someone with the ill-intent of sabotaging the game directly interferes with the main storyline in a completely malicious manner?
However the beta-testers have a contrary opinion.
The developers have a tight control over the game, not to mention, although they are reluctant to admit it, the players are indeed far more cautious and also have a stronger sense of realism and immersion when playing such a high-risk, high-stakes game.
A collapse of the storylineis not what the players ever wanted to see.
They created the novice town from scratch and it took a long time and colossal amount of cooperation in order just to build it. The players performed various tasks every day, hunted monsters, and eventually got promoted to Iron-rank just to make their town fully functional complete with its current amenities.
This sense of accomplishment made everyone fall in love with this game.
The intertwined sense of belongingness and achievement brought these hardcore gamers genuine feelings of joy and recognition.
No one wants to lose this game.
The players promised to themselves to beat down anyone who wants to mess around even before the Goddess takes action.
Anyhow back to the main topic at hand
What does the words of this strange enemy envoy actually mean?
The players were left puzzled but as they were about to communicate with each other, they suddenly found to their surprise that their ability to speak seemed to have been entirely sealed.
All players cant verbally speak anymore!
Fortunately, the chat function on the game system is still functional, hence everyone shifted their discussions to their own chatgroups or the global #chat-channel.
// Waitwhy cant I talk anymore? Do you guys cant speak as well?
// Yup, I cannnot speak either, it seems to be imposed by the system.
// Cut scenesIm afraid we have entered an animated cut scene! I heard he also lost control of his body when Demacia went to see the goddess!
// So thats the case!
The players suddenly realized whats going on and everyone got excited as they watch whats happening in front of them with rapt attention.
// Butwhats the deal with this new god or sth? Isnt the goddess the same as the world tree?
// Hey, did you guys forget what miss Saint said before? The goddess seemed to have mislead the enemies in order to hide her true identity. These misunderstandings must be her doings! Havent we also got mistaken as a bunch of undead by the Orcs? xD
// ()I see!
// MmmBut why do I feel like the current appearance of the goddess has suddenly changed? I always remembered that ElvKings goddess was flawless and majestic, but it seems her looks just now has been nerfed like shes in a wretched state unlike how she was before
// Hahaha The goddess is also an NPC, not just a background character. As long as shes an active NPC in this game, surely she must have her own emotions as well. Maybe shes feeling down atm lol.
// Now that you mention it, I suddenly feel much closer to the goddess! Guys Ill try to flatter her when I offer an offering and pray next time. Lol who knows, what if I got chosen as one of her attendants?
// Lmfao Keep on dreaming dude.
// Record it! Livestream this scene fast! The goddess is definitely going to participate in the next battle!
The players happily opened their recording function.
At the same time, the divine protector Al emitted a burst of brilliant holy light. He then devoutly kneeled down on the ground whilst silently praying with his eyes closed, before a vast and holy aura suddenly descended upon the whole scene.
Under the solemn gaze of the demigod Volker, the gentle divine power continuously gathered and converged before forming an ethereal and sacred figure.
It seemed to be the goddess, surrounded by a shimmering aura of divine power.
A ray of holy light concealed her face, but her vigorous divinity cannot be hidden.
The physical appearance of a god can be changed at will, but the aura of their divinity is difficult to disguise.
In an instant, the demigod Volker instantly recognized her
This aura carried the essence of life and nature!
However, he also noticed that her aura seemed unstable and intermixed with a hint of death as well.
The demigod Volkers eyes slightly brightened.
As expected by the Hunter gods speculation, this was indeed a newly born deity who relied on the assistance of the death goddess to steal the divinity of life and nature!
Moreover, her condition was obviously not good, as she couldnt even properly control her own divine power!
No wonder she was so secretive.
This new god is probably not as powerful as an old experienced demigod like him!
This is an opportunity!
Volker straightened his back as a confident lopsided smirk formed onto his mouth.
