Game of the World Tree

Chapter 112

?? I’m going to achieve great things!

Night Wanderer internally did some calculations within the span of a few seconds and decided to change to a less hostile approach.

He looked at the other person’s unfriendly expression and faked shrugging his shoulders:

“Respected lady, I did not harm them. These elves all fell asleep on their own.”

After speaking, he then smirked slightly and added,

“Please convey my sincerest greetings upon the esteemed crowned Death God. The Life Divinity is a high-level divine power with endless potentials. I hope the Death Goddess can gain something from it.”

After hearing his words, Eve, whom disguised herself as Death’s envoy, raised her eyebrows slightly:

“…Are you threatening me?”

Night Wanderer smiled again.

He did not answer, but instead took a sip of the blood in the tall glass he materialized and said enigmatically in a whisper:

“Am i now? You milady knew that us Godwardens are the eyes of our respective gods.”

After speaking, he then gave Eve a meaningful look then bowed and slowly disappeared in thin air.

Eve did not chase after him.

She understood his meaning and her expression became a bit strange:

“Greetings upon the esteemed Death God… and the Life Divinity…Did he just misunderstood that there’s a new god here in the Elven Forest?”

After realizing her own precarious situation, Eve has been disguising herself in this way.

Her original plan was to wear the mask of a Death follower.

But in the process of execution, she found that even with the Death God’s broken sphere, she could only use a bit of the Death God’s divine power to cover up her own tracks.

After all, there was only so much Death God’s divine power contained within the sphere, and using even a little bit meant having less of it for future use.

Under such circumstances, she could still bully the weak, but if she were to really fight with a powerful being beyond her own strength, or perchance even a Godwarden, she was very likely to expose her true divine power.

In that case, the mantle of the Death God’s envoy would be broken and the gains would not be worth it in the end.

This was also the first reason why Eve let the vampire go.

Although she wore a deception, if she were to kill the intruder, who had the power of a lower-level gold whilst also being a Godwarden then she might actually expose her true situation to Uller himself.

However, after learning of the intruders misunderstandings and the fact that she inherited the divinity of Life wasn’t exposed yet to the Pantheon gods, Eve had this new idea of wearing a second identity as a disguise.

That is to disguise herself as a newly ascended Goddess of Life whom seemingly doesn’t yet know anything.

The players’ special race, the earthen style temple… All these things can actually be misleading to some extent.

Eve’s plan is to have two separate identities with the first disguise being the Godwarden of the goddess of death whilst the second is a newly born Life Goddess.

In this way, she can even completely disguise her newly created NPC avatar as her own Life Godwarden to come and go as she pleases.

The most difficult part of this plan is how to make the outside world believe that all these identities are a separate entity and not just one and the same.

But now it seems…

“That vampire helped me covered up the identity I want to disguise as. Goodness, I don’t know whether to commend him as clever or stupid…”

Thinking of intruder’s confident expression just now, Eve’s expression turned strange.

“Not only that…he even directly used the life divinity to subtlety threaten me!”

Please convey my sincerest greetings upon the esteemed crowned Death God. The Life Divinity is a high-level divine power with endless potentials. I hope the Death Goddess can gain something from it…

His words actually have two meanings.

The first was to reveal that he has ‘apparently’ seen through the truth in the Elf Forest—that is, a newly ascended god in relation to the life divinity has been born, and it is being controlled by the goddess of death.

The second meaning is that the potential of the life divinity is huge, reminding the goddess of death to be really careful.

After all, the divinity of death and the divinity of life are actually equivalent in power, cut out of the same cloth just on the polar ends of the spectrum.

With her giving the allusion that Hela is trying to support a new god with an equal ranked divinity, the other gods may launch a counterattack by knowing this fact since the matter of Hela’s imperfect divinity is an open secret amongst the gods.

In other words, what she’s doing is inadvertently sowing discord between the goddess of death and the other gods.

Fortunately that intruder’s own conjecture was quite wrong and he also didn’t uncovered any real substantial truth that may harm her.

This fact is what made Eve decide to let him go for the time being.

After all, an enemy who conveys the wrong message is more advantageous for her.

This is the second reason why she spared the vampire.

It’s best to spread the fake ‘truth’ amongst the followers of Uller!

This way, although it may attract the attention of some demigods, true Gods, and even Ancient Old Ones, it is still a hundred times better than exposing the revival of the World Tree.

Sometimes, the best way to conceal a secret is to expose another fallacy to the enemy.

“Anyway, I knew his precise location due to the captured player having innate tracking features linked onto me. This vampire seems to had came from the southeast and is probably stationed at the orc tribe… Okay, let’s set the position down.”

Eve smiled in satisfaction.

Slowly but surely the destruction of the Orc horde is being set in motion.

That vampire’s demise too can be packed together like a bundle alongside the Caverock Tribe’s imminent destruction.

This time it won’t be the ashen haired Reaper’s Godwarden who will destroy them, but a new Godwarden serving the New Goddess of Life instead.

This way, their conflict will only be between two lesser ranked divinities and it won’t attract more attention from the true higher ranked gods.

It’s inevitable for there to be conflicts between believers of different gods.

But there is a difference between wars between divinities, wars between demigods, and wars between divine believers.

Anyway.

While acting as a new inexperienced Life God, she will give the illusion that she has incorporated the elves and awakened them to a new system of belief that basically want to seek revenge against Uller’s minions.

Just as long as it doesn’t cause a big commotion, the Great Older Ones usually turn a blind eye to these matters.

But one concerning fact is that Uller has a larger divine faction behind him, and Eve is not sure she can properly withstand them in case they decided to intervene.

However, based on Eve’s understanding of Uller’s style of doing things, she is very suspicious as to whether the other party will conceal the matter of the new-born true god to himself.

After all…his purpose is the divinity of life and nature!

And if he knows that this new god is very weak, he will definitely have some wild ideas…

Well, that way would be even better.

Just wait for the other party to slowly deliver the dishes so to speak.

Although still cautious now, Eve is not the same old Eve back when she just recovered.

Thinking of this, she looked at the players lying on the ground.

Eve’s expression gradually became serious.

Just now, she forcibly cut off the “network cables” of these players.

Although players whose souls are in earth can ignore all soul spells, they still cannot avoid the effects of psychological suggestions, which is also the biggest weakness of the chosen ones.

What Eve only can do is to warn in advance and cut off the connection.

“This weakness is very deadly and must be rectified for immediately. Otherwise, if one day the legion formed by the players and the enemies are at war and the opponent issues a collective psychological attack, then it will be very dangerous…”

Eve sighed and felt a growing headache.

In all things, there are pros and cons.

Fortunately, the ability to issue collective psychological attacks is still far from the reach of the players…

And if it’s just an individual suggestion, Eve can help if she can bear it, or just cut the connection ahead of time if she can’t.

Eve shook her head, snapped her fingers lightly, and then slowly disappeared.

After Eve left, the players slowly woke up.

“I’m finally online once again!”

“Bah, What year is this? Why are we still getting disconnected, damn this games server is a bit bad!”

“Huh? Where’s everyone? They’re gone!”

“Ah, ah, ah! I got disconnected at a critical moment! My hidden quest!”

“Uh…where did Boxlunch go?”

On the edge of the Elf Forest.

Night Wanderer escaped several kilometers all of a sudden, and then breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the Death God’s Godwarden did not follow him.

Then, his nervous expression gradually became calm again:

“Hehe, they didn’t catch up…it seems that the Death God and the New Life God are not so harmonious. The nails have been hammered, just as long as they are not harmonious, there is a chance for the Hunter God’s to stole the Life Divinity.”

After speaking, his expression then became excited:

“This time, it seems that I’m going to make great achievements!”
