"Is this the City of Segers?"
In the kingdom of the World Tree, Eve sat on her throne and squinted at the scene in front of her while enjoying the crisp and sweet fruits sent by the oak guards.
In front of her was still a large sand table that observed the activities of the players, and above the sand table were five images.
The angles of the images were different, and they constantly changed according to the owner's activities. The content was similar, and it was the scene of a bustling city.
This was the perspective of the five players in the Boxed Lunch Team.
The city was naturally the location of the Church of Creation, the core of the Demiplane — the City of Segers.
This was a city that was more prosperous than the capital of the Holy Mania Empire's Maple Leaf Territory. The architectural style of the city was very similar to the elven architecture of Fei Lengcui. It was majestic and had an extraordinary artistic beauty.
However, perhaps due to the limitations of the building materials, this Demiplane didn't seem to have white boulders that were often used for construction like the Elf Forest. Instead, it used common gray stones, so the tone of the entire city was dark gray.
In the city, fully armed soldiers and priests in gray priest robes and hoods could be seen everywhere.
They patrolled the streets expressionlessly, and every city resident who saw them would stop and lower their heads to show respect. They wouldn't continue until they were far away.
There were many residents here. Eve roughly looked and estimated that the population of this city was probably higher than that of Maple Leaf City.
However, despite the large population, Eve found that most of the residents here looked numb, and their eyes were empty. They were far less spirited than the villagers in the villages outside the city, let alone Lilia and the others in Grace Town.
Because of this … although the city was bustling, the City of Segers gave people a feeling of oppression and disharmony.
"This seems to be … mind control?"
Eve frowned slightly.
Her gaze wandered through several images and looked at the city gate.
Some of the residents who had entered the city through the city gate had their lively eyes gradually become numb. As for the residents who had left the city gate with empty eyes, their numbness quickly faded away like machines, and they became normal again.
Seeing all this, Eve raised her eyebrows.
"So that's how it is. Every existence that enters the city will have their spiritual world invaded by some kind of power, thus affecting their thoughts?"
"However, this influence is limited and not permanent. It seems to be limited to this city. It looks more like it's to hide something in the city."
At this moment, he suddenly felt a familiar energy fluctuation that wanted to invade his game system network.
To be more precise, he wanted to invade the mental world of Boxed Lunch and the others.
Eve was very familiar with this fluctuation. It was the mysterious spiritual fluctuation that she felt when she first tried to explore the demiplane.
At first, he thought it was the will of the demiplane, but after knowing about the God of Creation, he understood that it should be some kind of stress mechanism left behind by the sleeping God of Creation.
It was clear that the invading force had targeted the Players.
Eve didn't immediately erase this energy because doing so would alert the enemy and expose the five players.
All of a sudden, he stretched out his right hand into the void. Space was slightly distorted as he summoned a few vines.
At the same time, in the Demonic God's Maze at the Roots of the World Tree …
A group of players was besieged by a dozen demons. The situation was tense and dangerous.
Suddenly, a light flashed in the void, and a vine broke through the void.
Under the astonished gazes of the players, the vines wrapped around the strongest Devil, and with a shrill wail, it was pulled into an alternate dimension …
Seeing that the strongest demon was caught, a dozen lesser demons fled in panic, and an exasperated roar faintly sounded in the Maze.
"Yuktrasir!"
The players were stunned and fell into a daze.
"F * ck! What the hell? "
"It looks like … the vine of the Goddess?"
"Could it be that the Goddess saw that we can't defeat them and came to save us?"
"Wake up. You might as well say that you signed a contract with the Megalosaurus."
"…"
Similar things happened in several places in the Demonic God's Maze at the same time.
Soon, Eve had captured five Great Demons from the labyrinth that were close to Gold-tier in strength.
Looking at the trembling demons with their tails between their legs, Eve shook her head slightly.
"Azazel really can't be underestimated. He created such a powerful demon in a moment of carelessness. It seems that he still hasn't given up …"
"I still haven't squeezed him enough. He actually managed to secretly accumulate the power to create such a powerful demon. Hmm … I might as well refresh the dungeon for him every twelve hours."
As Eve muttered to herself, she decided to increase the workload of a certain Demonic God who was "working". She also directed the power that invaded the lunchbox to the five demons, allowing them to take the "mental shock" in place of the five players.
Then, she noticed that the five demons' gazes were almost instantly dazed.
At the same time, they were still prostrating on the ground, praising nature and life.
Seeing this, Eve raised her eyebrows slightly.
"This mental shock actually has the brainwashing effect of strengthening faith. This' Creator God 'who is suspected to be the Elven Demigod Orloss directly targeted nature and life. Should I say that he's ambitious, or should I say that he's careless?"
If Eve hadn't revived as a World Tree, and if the Divine Roles of Nature and Life didn't have a master, this strengthening of faith would naturally be beneficial for this Creator God to obtain the two Divine Roles.
But now, this prayer could only be directed at Eve.
Of course, the five demons naturally couldn't be converted into true believers. At most, they could only temporarily distort their mental worlds.
The successful invasion of the five demons' mental worlds also allowed Eve to verify another question.
That was, his status should be higher than this "God of Creation."
Otherwise, her "substitution" wouldn't have been able to fool the other party, even if the other party had fallen into a deep slumber.
"In other words, the other party hasn't ascended to godhood yet?"
With this in mind, Eve fell into deep thought.
"If that's the case, it's likely that the suggestion those residents received was directed at nature and life.
"Logically speaking, this should have been directed at me after I revived, but I didn't receive any corresponding feedback. It's likely that this" Creator God "used some special method to replace the target of the suggestion …
"If my guess is correct, it should be the 'Heart of Life'. It's likely that he used the fragment of the Scepter of Life as a target to gather divine power and strengthen the laws of life and nature.
"But if that's all, even if he spent tens of millions of years, he still wouldn't be able to become the true God of Life and Nature, right? Or does he have some secret or backup plan that I don't know about?
"I don't know why, but I keep having this uncomfortable premonition."
Eve thought for a moment and frowned slightly.
As long as it didn't involve a battle between Gods, a True God's premonition was still quite accurate.
"But this mental shock didn't detect my divine sense, which probably means that this" Creator God "isn't powerful enough …
"This mental shock is probably connected to his internal belief network. He can prevent other mythical beings from infiltrating through the plane channel, but he can't prevent the other party from exploding from the inside!
"If that's the case, I should be able to try to reverse the location …"
With this in mind, Eve's heart skipped a beat.
The players had the crystal ball that Elder Ruaeger had obtained.
However, in Eve's opinion, the crystal ball's response was still too vague. If the players wanted to rely on that thing to locate the existence of the Heart of Life, it would probably take at least a few days in Segers City.
Eve was worried that a long delay would lead to trouble.
With this in mind, she immediately took action. Using her divine sense's power, she used the mental channels on the five demons as an attack route to reverse the invasion …
She operated very carefully, and the process was very smooth.
With the infiltration of her divine sense's power, Eve quickly "saw" a turbulent world of faith.
The dazzling Light of Faith formed a dense network, and at the core of the network, a rhombus-shaped crystal was constantly rotating.
"This … really is the fragment of the Scepter of Life!"
Eve's spirit was shaken.
She strengthened her divine sense's power again and quickly sensed the other party's specific location.
Her "vision" changed again, crossing the void and "seeing" the entire Segers City, "seeing" the tallest church building in Segers City, "seeing" the underground palace buried in the depths of the church, and at the same time, "seeing" a huge crystal coffin in the palace …
And the fragment of the Scepter of Life floated above the crystal coffin, shrouded in countless starlight.
"Found it!"
Eve was delighted.
After memorizing the location of the fragment of the Scepter of Life, Eve planned to withdraw.
However, the moment before she withdrew, her "gaze" swept across the crystal coffin below the fragment.
However, with just one glance, Eve's mind was shaken, and she almost couldn't maintain the power of her divine sense.
She saw an elf girl lying in the crystal coffin with her eyes closed.
She wore a gorgeous white dress, her facial features were unparalleled, and her silver hair spread out to the side of her body.
Her appearance was almost identical to Eve's.
