Game of the World Tree

In spring, it rained constantly in rhythm.

The green forest seemed particularly vital in the rain. The breeze blew with the fragrance of soil. Everything was revived…

Standing in a side chamber of the Temple of Nature, Alice the elf saint gazed at the small world outside the window, in a daze. She still found it incredible.

Mother God… was really back.

Although three days had already passed, she still felt as if she was in a dream.

Now, the elf maiden looked holier and nobler.

As a saint, her power had already changed drastically, surpassing the level of iron directly and achieving the top of Low Silver with her ranking increasing to 50!

However, the maiden was not that happy about her power improvement. In her mind, there was only wild joy at Mother God's return and the regret and self-accusation for her once almost abandoning faith.

"I must make every effort to improve. I won't let Mother God down. I will strive for my faith in Mother God and the future of the elf race!"

Gazing at a far mountain, the maiden pursed her pink lips tightly and clenched her small fists.

"Alice."

An elderly voice interrupted the maiden's thought. Alice's sharp ears twitched slightly.

She turned to see Samuel the elder priest slowly walking toward her.

Samuel was wearing a grey dress specialized for sacrificing and carrying a prepared pack on his back. He looked radiant as if he was hundreds of years younger.

It was hard to associate his current appearance with the extremely old elf who chose to give up his faith three days ago.

With his strengthening of faith again and Mother God's blessing, Samuel also improved now and became a strong elf of Low Silver, his rank: 41!

"Grandfather Samuel."

Alice saluted her elder who had always been looking after her.

Her eyes brightened as she saw the pack on the elderly elf's back. She asked joyfully, "Are you… ready?"

Samuel nodded. He turned to look towards the main chamber of the temple with a fanatic expression.

"Mother God needs to assemble elves. I'm afraid that only I can contact those remaining elves now."

Three days ago, Mother God Eve Euktrahill had given the first divine order of assembling elves again.

Among the three, Samuel was the fittest for doing it.

After his words, he looked ashamed again.

"For Mother God, for the elf race, and for my own sins, I am ready."

Feeling his power provided by Mother God, Samuel thought of himself as a sheer depraved ass because he had previously decided to forgo his faith.

Meanwhile, his faith in Mother God became increasingly firm.

Upon hearing the elderly priest's words, Alice's emerald eyes brightened slightly.

"To assemble elves is… really good…"

After these words, she became a bit worried.

"You will be alone. You must be careful."

There was a flicker of gentleness on Samuel's face as he heard the maiden's words. He touched Alice's head and he said, "Rest assured! I alone am enough. In addition to the fact that I have already been a Silver priest thanks to Mother God, she has given me a divine object that is able to perceive the position of other elves within a certain distance, allowing me to also defend myself against attacks by enemies of the Golden level."

He stretched out his hand. A green leaf lay in his palm, exuding an aura of holiness.

The leaf belonged to the World Tree. Eve used one point of natural force to strengthen it so it could be counted as a crude, holy object.

Three days ago, Eve gave this leaf to Samuel and ordered him to start looking for the remaining elves and bring them back.

"That's good…"

Alice nodded, and then said with a little sadness, "It is really good… I also want to look for other elves together with you."

Samuel laughed and then said to her seriously, "You have a more important task. You must make every effort to help Mother God guide the upcoming elect."

To guide the election…

Upon hearing this, Alice's eyes shone slightly as she nodded.

The mere thought of Mother God's divine words aroused her adoration and fanaticism again.

The elect!

Three days ago, Mother God gave a second order that there would be the advent of the elect from another world recently, who would help the elf race revive their civilization as "brave men!"

Meanwhile, Mother God ordered Alice the saint and Berserker the oak guard to be prepared to guide the elect and help them adapt to this world.

"What will the elect be like? Will they also be elves?"

"Or… will they be Mother God's attendants?"

Alice thought with yearning.

"Anyhow, since Mother God chooses them, they must be kind, righteous, honest and selfless like us elves!"

She thought in anticipation.

Samuel's expression softened as he saw the maiden eager to try.

He looked up at the World Tree's crown that was still withered. His gaze gradually became steely as he said, "Mother God has just revived with very limited power. We must make every effort to spread the faith so that Mother God can be at the peak again and lead us to prosperity…"

After speaking, the two elves looked at each other and smiled.

"Mother God of Nature be praised!"

"Mother God of Nature be praised!"

Their voices were full of vigor and passion!

…

After giving orders to the three of His believers, Eve immediately went to the space of His godhead again.

He connected with the Internet world of the blue planet again and started designing a game to prepare for the advent of players.

In these three days, He had already tested and verified the practicalities of His ideas through different kinds of experiments. Now, He needed to perfect The Kingdom of Elves, as He named the game, and promoted it on the Internet!

"I must preset the levels well. In fact, the system on the continent of Sagas can serve as a template directly… Hmmm, at first, I can only set the Iron level in the Secular rankings with 40 being the highest ranking."

"And I'll just copy the system of professions! In addition, I'll set their attributes. These are all basic things…"

"At first, I'll show up and make systematic introductions of the characters! By the way, I'll give the players some small gifts to leave a favorable impression on them…"

"As for the players' bodies, I'll choose elves! It is the World Tree's inherent ability to create elves. In order to save divine force, I can turn their power to one, the lowest ranking. After all, those determined players must strive to upgrade themselves…"

"Hmmm, in order to help them upgrade themselves, I can set all the potential talents of their bodies to the utmost degree… Hmmm, they are all of genius degree!"

"I'll modify 'War Sacrifice,' merge this skill with their bodies, and combine it with their upgrades. In this way, through every upgrade, the players will also provide power for me at the same time!"

"Wow… If I calculate it in this way, one point of divine force can create about 100 bodies. In the beginning, I think it would be prudent to have 300 people! After all, I must spare some points of divine force for self-defence. I cannot use them all up."

"I also have to be careful about choosing people. I'd better choose those who spend a lot of time playing virtual reality games on the Internet. And I will look for some influential Internet anchors… So, I can have my game spread by word of mouth, in order to increase the number of players in the future."

"By the way, I will also preset the system. I can use points of divine force to realize it."

"I will limit the upcoming people's range of activity, so that once they die, it will be convenient for me to resurrect the bodies. Meanwhile, I can retrieve the remaining power in their bodies and make them work for me from the ranking of one after their resurrection…"

"As for points of experience, I can have their bodies' condition checked to get these points and manifest them through some datamation…"

"As for the script of the game… I can refer to some materials online. Hmmm… The theme should be the rise of the elf race!"

"As for the promotional cartoon, I must do it well too! There are some episodes of the ancient war of gods in the inheritance of the World Tree. Hmmm… I can use them directly for a specially good effect! Hmmm, as for the background music, the elf race seems to have composed many pieces of very classic music… Let Alice's image be on the front cover. That group of animals like lovely girls… Wow, I'll add a handsome boy's image to attract female players…"

"The velocity of the flow of time here on the continent of Sagas is different from that of the blue planet. This feature can be highlighted… How do I gain publicity? Wow… that's it. I will say that I adopt a leading-edge technology: thought acceleration! There will be four times as much time compared to reality! Ha ha, I'm a genius indeed!"

Unwittingly, He had already spent three days. With the help of divine force, a big game gradually formed…

"I've finally made it!"

Looking at His work, Eve felt extremely satisfied.

At this moment, only 11 of His original 20 points of divine force remained…

It cost a lot to operate on the Internet of another world.

"As for the time of the beta test, let it be a week later on the blue planet! Let it be the number of people I can trick in seven days!"

After perceiving His state, Eve made a judgement.

The next step was to gain publicity.

Using His divine force to interfere in the Internet of the blue planet again, Eve managed to set up a Internet game company called "World Tree Leading-edge Technology Corporation" smoothly and secretly. Then, He registered The Kingdom of Elves as a virtual reality game. Finally, He uploaded the promotional film to the Internet without hesitation…

Next, He would wait for the effect of the promotional film and greet the first batch of players.
