YM778.TV Chapter 98
Countless denizens knelt on the ground, praying anxiously and devoutly.
The weather in the divine kingdom was easily influenced by the mood of the true gods and at this moment, the God of Winter and Hunting, Uller, was in a state of utmost fury.
Uller haes been very unlucky recently.
At least, that’s how he felt.
First, he was caught by the chief gods for secretly collecting the world tree’s blood crystal, and then he was ambushed by an unknown force in the Elven Forest.
Even the incarnation of his divine power was destroyed by a group of seemingly death god worshippers!
Being scolded by the chief gods was one thing…
—But having his incarnation destroyed by mortal creatures was a direct insult to him!
The dignity of a true god cannot be desecrated.
If this matter were to be spread, Uller would become a laughingstock amongst the gods!
And what was even more embarrassing for him was that this might be the doing of the death goddess Hela.
But even if he suspected Hela, he couldn’t do anything about it due to the power gap between them…
Although both were true gods, Hela had mid tier divine powers, and her strength was far greater than his.
She didn’t even have to take turns guarding the Pantheon like Uller did with his weak divine power!
And then, the Pantheon had another incident.
Some entity had seemingly entered without anyone noticing!
It should be noted that the preparations before godhood in the Saigües were quite complicated.
Preaching faith could not be hidden, and the energy fluctuations caused by deification were usually significant. In general, the gods would be notified in advance and report to the Pantheon after the ascension ceremony.
But this time, they didn’t even notice it until the supposed new deity entered the premises of the Pantheon then leave just as quietly.
And Uller was also reprimanded for failing to find this new god as the task of finding the new god was also assigned to him.
However he had already sent out many of his minions and almost searched the entire Heavenly realm, yet no one still couldn’t find any trace of this mysterious new god…
It’s making Him increasingly depressed.
And now, the only two places he hasn’t yet explored are the underworld and the Saigües Realm.
And when the thought of how this newly-arisen enigmatic deity could easily enter and leave the Pantheon quietly, coupled with the recent increase in mana in Saigües…
Uller highly suspected that this true god was probably born in the temporal realm!
…But if this is correct then it made him even more curious.
Because according to the current power level of the Saigües realm, it should not be able to support the ascension of a new god.
Furthermore most of the lands are already occupied by some long established churches in Saigües. If the new god had truly been ascended in the mortal realm, then it will be even more difficult to conceal the fluctuations of such occurrence.
Not to mention hiding its Divinity!
Unless…
“Unless there is a direct intervention of yet another gods!”
And when Uller began to inquire about any recent strange happenings in Saigües, all the answers for which he got were all the same.
The mortal realm, as per usual, was operating in the usual manner—
—Except for the Elven Forest!
Right at the moment of mana expansion, the Elven Forest had the largest increase of it.
Although it was one of the major magic laylines within Saigües due to the existence of the World Tree. It’s normal for the magic sources to have a greater attraction when the entire world’s mana increases exponentially…
But thinking about his followers’ encounters within the Elven Forest and those strange elves, Uller gradually had a certain speculation:
“Could it be that…someone has already obtained the divinity of nature or life?”
His face hardened and turned ugly.
Because if someone had truly ascended into godhood by obtaining a divinity, it would indeed then be more convenient and the fluctuations would be smaller.
However, this kind of luck has rarely been encountered ever since the twilight of the ancient gods.
How to analyze the blood of the World Tree,
As of now Uller still couldn’t extract the divinity of nature and life from it, but suddenly felt that it was very possible!
After all… the curse of the World Tree has disappeared, and the seal of the god-blood crystal has also been broken.
If he can secretly study the blood of the World Tree, then surely can’t others do it too?
At that moment, Uller instantly thought of Hela again!
Because the previous signs clearly indicate that the mysterious power hidden within the Elven Forest may be related to Hela!
Not only that, but Hela herself would be definitely interested in the divinity of life.
Add to the thought that the new god may also be related to Hela made Uller’s mood became even worse.
However, when luck is bad, bad things will surely happen…
Just now, within a short period of a few tens of minutes, He actually sensed the deaths of more than 300 of his believers!
Of course, if it was just the deaths of mere 300 half-orc believers, then it would not have made him so angry.
After all, the believers who become sacrifices can provide more faith to the true gods like him.
What really angered Him was the scenes He just saw from the memories of the dead priests…
A figure wearing a black robe, the cold and dark power of death, and… the wanton ruthless slaughter that occurred!
It’s clearly obvious.
He absolutely won’t make a mistake!
That… is the Godwarden of the Lord of Death and ruler of Underworld – Hela!
And it is also possible that it is a divine envoy that she personally oversees!
The Goddess of Death!
Really it might be the Grim Reaper!
Plus the resurgence of the Elven race…
In that instant, Uller no longer had any more doubts.
The forces within the Elven Forest are definitely the minions of Hela!
And the newly ascended true god could be located deep inside the Elven Forest!
Not only that, the opponent is very likely to be a Life aligned God trained by Hela!
Because only by inheriting the divinity of life will it be possible to attract the return of those elusive elves, or even likes of dragons!
At that moment, Uller’s angry roar echoed all throughout the silver temple on the snowy mountain high above the Heavenly Realm.
“Hela–!!”
Florence Ruins.
With the players’ help and assistance, the elves of the Rageblaze clan have finally returned to this once holy city.
They looked at the ruined city in front of them with each of their expressions showing excitement, and then one by one, they all prostrated down again and prayed devoutly.
Saint Alice, Oak Guardian Berserker, and other players whom did not participate in the mission have also rushed over to greet them as soon as they received the news.
Seeing the sacred Saint and the Oak Guardian representing the power of the mother goddess, all the elves of the Rageblaze clan became even more excited:
“We’re back! We’re really back!”
Alice was also overjoyed. She bowed to all the elves and spoke in a holy and gentle voice:
“Welcome back home my fellow brethrens!”
And after the elves arrived in Florence, all the players who received the mission had finally received their rewards.
At that moment, looking at the large amounts of experience and contribution points they’ve received, all the players had joyous expressions.
At this time, Alice noticed a huge creature tied up along with in the team…
“…A Black Dragon?”
She showed surprised in her face.
“This is a captive of the Mother Goddess.”
The elven shota Ael was fanatical.
And the players who had never seen a black dragon before were even more excited. Unlike the locals whom have feared dragons, they were full of curiosity.
They surrounded the tightly bound black dragon named Meryer, touching, exclaiming, taking pictures, and teasing, almost making the pretending-to-be-dead little black dragon angry…
And when the elves of the Rageblaze clan regained their bearings, they requested to worship the World Tree from Alice.
Although the World Tree is huge, here in Florence, which is far away due to geographical obstacles, they cannot see its true magnificence.
Worshiping the World Tree is the sole wish of every elven believer!
