As it turned out, one had to pay for what they did.
While exploring Rivendell, the players had a lot of fun killing the Crypt Spiders. While searching for the elves' treasures, they also treated fighting the Crypt Spiders and sacrificing their legs as a form of entertainment.
In just a few days, countless Crypt Spiders had died at their hands. Although most of them were small Crypt Spiders that didn't even have a complete consciousness, it was enough to infuriate Lolth.
Previously, she was at the critical moment of her advancement, so she didn't retaliate against the players' actions.
Now that she had become Eve's dependent, she couldn't fight against the players anymore …
However, this didn't mean that the players wouldn't be punished.
At this moment, all the players at the scene realized that their favorability with the Spider Queen Lolth was below -50, all at the level of Dislike.
And the combat team of the Boxed Lunch Team had all reached -100, reaching the level of Dislike that only Demacia had experienced …
Even the players who didn't choose the exploration mission had their favorability drop to -30 due to the Spider Queen's subjective impression of the Chosen One.
How to make up for the Spider Queen's favorability became the new goal of the players.
Especially those players who desired the Spider Mount!
For a while, the strategy and intelligence section of the official forum were flooded with the newly online NPC, the Spider Queen Lolth.
Its popularity even surpassed that of the Goddess Eve's post.
Later, this popularity was pushed to the climax by a screenshot.
It was a close-up screenshot taken by a player who participated in the mission. It was the moment when the Goddess Eve placed her hand on the head of the Spider Queen Lolth, who had transformed into a Spider Queen, teaching her to speak …
Needless to say, the angle of this screenshot was perfect.
The holy Goddess was like the light in the darkness. With a smile on her face, she reached out and stroked the head of the newly evolved Spider Queen Lolth. Lolth, who had transformed into a half-human, knelt down respectfully. Half of her body was hidden in the darkness as if she was receiving a baptism from the Goddess …
The majestic, holy, and peerless Goddess, the Spider Queen Lolth, who was both hideous and mysterious and beautiful …
Half light, half darkness.
The perfect lighting and shadow effects made this game screenshot a famous scene in "Elven Nation."
When Eve browsed through the forum, she also saw the screenshot of the player.
His heart skipped a beat, and he saved it.
"These players chose a good angle. This screenshot is pretty good. I'll send an Oracle and get someone to draw a relief sculpture in the shrine."
The True Gods of Segers had the habit of drawing historical reliefs of the True Gods in their shrines or holy lands. Not only could they be used to praise the True Gods' epics and promote the True Gods' mighty power, but they could also attract believers and gather faith.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Naturally, Eve decided to give it a try.
After all … this kind of classic image of a legendary magical beast was simply a great tool for preaching!
After further exploration, the players gradually discovered how to mend their relationship with the Spider Queen Lolth.
After turning into a monster lady, the Spider Queen Lolth's intelligence had been further enhanced. Although she had chosen to hide in Rivendell under the influence of the Goddess' oracle and the habits of the Crypt Spiders, she had shown more curiosity towards civilization.
As long as the players found her and could bring her interesting items or interesting stories from the civilized world, they would find that her relationship with them would increase slightly.
In addition, like The Black Dragon Merril, Lolth also showed interest in food.
The Crypt Spiders had two types of food. One was ore, and the other was other creatures.
When hunting other creatures, the Crypt Spiders would spin silk and wrap it into a large cocoon. They would use acid to corrode the prey into liquid and then enjoy it.
After further exploration, the players found that Lolth liked to boil the meat of magical beasts into a rich and delicious broth.
Not only that, but she also retained her habit of eating ores. If they could find some rare ores and feed them to her, it would make up for some of her relationship with them.
Of course, the latter method was too expensive. Almost all the players chose the former.
As her relationship with Lolth was restored, some of the players gradually let go of the Spider Queen's wariness towards them and allowed them to go deeper into her nest.
After going deep into the Crypt Spiders' nest, the players found a new treasure.
It was the spider silk left behind by the Crypt Spiders!
After this spider silk was air-dried, it was very elastic and felt very good. After being appraised by the Elf Blacksmith Carlos, it turned out to be an excellent material for magical equipment. Not only was it tough, it also had excellent magical properties!
Not only could it be used to weave beautiful clothes, but it could also be used to make magical equipment!
For a time, more players poured into the underground and began to farm the Spider Queen's relationship with Lolth. They wanted to obtain her permission to enter the Crypt Spiders' nest to search for treasures …
This was especially true for some brave female players!
However, even the players who progressed the fastest were still very far away from meeting the requirements to obtain a mount …
The members of the Boxed Meal Team were even more unlucky. They found that their relationship with Lolth could not be salvaged.
Every time they tried to learn from the other players and tried to enter the Spider Queen's nest in Rivendell, they would be violently thrown out by a group of large Crypt Spiders …
If Lolth had not become a follower of the Goddess Eve, it would not have been as simple as being thrown out.
And when they tried to farm her relationship with them, they would also be kicked out by the Crypt Spiders …
Seeing this scene, Eve shook her head secretly.
The Boxed Meal Team players could forget about having spider mounts. They could just wait for the next race to be subdued by her!
Ruining the advancement of a high-grade magical beast to Legend, the Spider Queen Lolth would remember this for the rest of her life …
The Boxed Meal Team players were not the only ones who were sad. The Black Dragon Merril was also sad.
This stupid Black Dragon, who thought of himself as a noble silver dragon, suddenly found that the number of players looking for him had greatly decreased recently …
Even if he had issued a mission, there were very few players who came to roast meat for him.
Those players …
They had all gone to farm the Purple NPC — Spider Queen Lolth's relationship with him.
And after knowing the truth, the Little Black Dragon was about to explode in anger.
"These long-eared forces! Hmph! Don't even think about getting Merril's mission rewards anymore! Hmph! "
But very quickly, he hesitated again.
"How about … I increase the reward?"
It was too difficult to live without roasted meat …
It was easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it was difficult to go from extravagance to frugality!
Merril, who was already used to roasted meat with honey, could no longer eat any other magical beast meat.
And after the Crypt Spiders were taken as dependents by Eve, the players' exploration of Rivendell became smoother.
Without the obstruction of the Crypt Spiders, they found a large number of elven relics in the depths of Rivendell. There was no lack of various equipment, handicrafts, and even forging and magic equipment from the elven civilization thousands of years ago.
Many of them were even well preserved!
And these things were transported back to the City of Heaven's Chosen by the players.
The destroyed items were sacrificed and recycled, and exchanged for contribution points.
The equipment and handicrafts were auctioned among the players, and bought by the rich players.
As for the forging and magic equipment, they were bought by the major guilds at a high price …
In order to increase the attractiveness of their guilds, they had already begun to train their own blacksmiths. These equipment came at the right time! And with the further communication with the Spider Queen Lolth, Eve also had a certain understanding of the underground world.
The entrance to Rivendell's underground world was connected to a relatively remote place in the underground world.
There used to be a large number of monsters living here, but when the Spider Queen Lolth brought a group of monsters here to prepare to advance to Legend, most of them were scared away.
If they wanted to find them, they would have to go deeper into the underground world.
And near the entrance to Rivendell's underground world, there was also a settlement of intelligent creatures.
It was a tribe of Dark Dwarves living in the underground world.
The Dark Dwarves were a branch of the Dwarves. Their height was usually less than 1.5 meters, their weight was similar to that of an adult human, and their skin was grayish-black.
Unlike their relatives on the surface, although the Dark Dwarves were also good at mining and forging, they didn't believe in the God of Dwarves and Forging. Instead, they believed in the Lord of Darkness and Shadows — Holder, an ancient God of the Underworld.
Of course, there were also some Dark Dwarves who didn't believe in Holder, but in the God of Death and the Lord of the Underworld — Hella.
Generally speaking, there were more Dark Dwarves who believed in the former, and most of them were the elderly.
The latter was less, and there were more young people.
The Dark Dwarves tribe living near Rivendell was a medium-sized tribe, and it was said that they believed in both gods.
After the destruction of Rivendell, the passage between the surface and the underground world was opened, and they settled down nearby. Moreover, they had signed a non-aggression agreement with the Spider Queen Lolth, who later migrated to the nearby area.
In addition, they often had dealings with the human smuggling caravans on the surface.
It was also because of the non-aggression agreement between the Dark Dwarves and Lolth that the human smuggling caravans could safely set up a small stronghold in Rivendell.
After knowing this, Eve instantly became vigilant.
"I didn't expect to be able to come into contact with Hella's believers so soon … Looks like I have to be careful. I shouldn't use the identity of the God of Death's Chosen … At least, I can't use it underground!"
She could foresee that the entrance to the underground world had been completely opened, and the players would definitely have to deal with the Dark Dwarves next.
At this time, she couldn't lose her identity as the God of Death's Chosen.
Just as Eve was deep in thought, suddenly, her attention was attracted by the vigorous vitality in her body.
The source of vitality was a human-shaped light cocoon on the World Tree.
That was Eve's attempt to give birth to an Original Elf!
She had a thought, and her consciousness returned to her body.
Eve knew …
The first true Primordial Elf was about to be born.
