Not to mention Demacia, who had missed out on the chance to obtain the Golden Legend.
With the appearance of the Life Priest Guide, the Life Church's preaching reached a peak in the Orloss Demiplane.
Players who wanted to develop into priests, as well as various player guilds, imitated the Nature's Heart Guild and started preaching.
And as time went on, more and more players became part-timers and part-timers.
Of course, although the Priestess class could be a part-time job and was very attractive to the players, not everyone was interested in it.
Many of the players who were part-time priests were only interested in the priests' healing divine spells.
However, just like how there were specializations, there were also many players who were gradually addicted to the priest profession.
Compared to the priests who were part-time priests, these players who played the priest profession as a form of entertainment were the main priests Eve needed.
These players were often those who leaned towards the life profession and liked to interact with NPCs more than fighting. Although they were not at the forefront of various combat missions, they had long become an indispensable part of the Chosen System.
After the priest profession was released, these players were the ones who leveled up the fastest.
A week after the release of the Priestess Strategy, Eve had sensed through the game system that there were close to 3,000 players who had been promoted to Priestess Trainee. Among them, there were a few hundred players who had been promoted to Lower Black-Iron.
This speed was beyond Eve's expectations, so much so that she almost didn't have enough priest robes that she had prepared in the exchange shop.
But in the end, Eve gritted her teeth and spent a dozen points of divine power to create a batch of priest robes in the Divine Kingdom. She then projected them to the real world to solve the problem.
The priest robes did not necessarily have to be created by Eve herself. In fact, this job should be produced by the church itself.
However, authentic priest robes required the blessings of a true god, and only Eve herself could create so many priest robes in such a short time.
It was worth mentioning that true gods could use divine power to create items in their Divine Kingdom.
However, using divine power to create items directly in the real world would cost a lot. Under normal circumstances, it would not be worth it.
Thus, considering the benefits, true gods would not do such a laborious and unrewarding thing.
It was only under special circumstances that Eve would expend her divine power to do this.
After all, the priest's robe was still quite important. In a sense, it was also the face of the church.
Although the players weren't priests in the truest sense of the word, since they had chosen this class, Eve would naturally prepare the equipment.
Well, actually, it was just that he had an abundance of divine power, and he had the divine power to be willful.
Of course, only after becoming an official Priestess, which meant that at least level 11, could one exchange for the Priestess robe.
Eve was very interested in the players' Priestess class.
And the players didn't disappoint him.
The 3,000 players who had activated the Priestess class brought Eve a large number of new believers.
Every probationary priestess had at least three Orloss citizens as followers of Eve.
Every Black Iron-ranked priest had at least converted a dozen believers.
This also meant that less than twenty days after the Priestess class was released, Eve had gained over ten thousand followers!
And at this moment, the number of her followers had changed again.
[Number of Followers: 36389 (Saint 1, Fanatic 128, Devout 3611, Shallow 32649)]
[Type of Followers: Crypt Spider Queen (1), Megalosaurus (1), Oak Guard (105), Elf (2157), Half-Elf (244), Elf Mixed Human (33824), Human (58)]
This efficiency was really terrifying, and it made Eve very happy.
One must know that a month ago, the total number of her followers was only twenty-five thousand. And this was because when she inherited the Orloss Demiplane, twenty thousand followers of the God of Creation had directly converted into her followers.
And now, in less than twenty days after the Priestess class was released, the number of her followers had increased by another ten thousand, reaching over thirty-six thousand!
This speed was much faster than Eve had expected.
She originally thought that it would be quite difficult for her to accumulate a hundred thousand followers, and that it would take at least a year and a half to do it. But she did not expect the efficiency of the players to exceed her expectations.
Of course, this was also because the Orloss Demiplane was very suitable for the development of faith.
Unlike Bluestar, the universe of Segers was a universe where a true god ruled the world, and the power of faith had long been deeply rooted in the people's hearts.
After Orloss's sacrifice, although many residents became non-believers, they still subconsciously revered the true god. Although they were not followers, they were still potential targets.
These people, with a little guidance, would easily choose to convert.
The fact that the players could convert so many followers in such a short time was proof of this.
The population of Segers was not small, at least two hundred thousand.
If the players could convert all these residents into followers, Eve's power of faith would undoubtedly rise to another level.
And if she wanted to rely on her followers to locate the lost divine kingdom of the previous World Tree, it would be possible.
Of course, although the potential of Segers was huge, the players did not place all their bets on it.
In fact, as time passed, more and more priest players began to leave the city of Segers and go to the various villages and towns in the Orloss Demiplane to preach.
There was a reason for this.
The city of Segers had a large population and great potential.
But as they continued to complete priest quests, the players found that the efficiency of preaching was getting slower and slower.
The time that the Goddess of Life appeared in the Orloss Demiplane was too short.
Perhaps some residents could quickly accept the new faith, but for a considerable number of people, it would take a long time for them to adapt.
But the players were often impatient.
They pursued high efficiency, so they naturally wanted this adaptation process to be as short as possible.
In addition, competition was also a factor in the emergence of a large number of player preaching groups.
Everyone was crowded in the city of Segers, so in a sense, they influenced each other.
Therefore, when they discovered that it was easier for them to preach in other towns and cities that hadn't been preached, they naturally changed their target.
However, this choice of the players brought about another benefit.
That was the honorific name of the Goddess of Life. Soon, it officially spread throughout the Orloss Demiplane.
Eve also took this opportunity to issue unique priest quests to the priest players. She had the players build temples of life in the various villages and towns in the Orloss Demiplane.
Caesar accepted this quest.
That day, after watching the preaching of Nature's Heart with Jasmine under the Moonlight, he understood how to become a qualified priest.
However, unlike Demacia and the others, Caesar preferred the "process" of completing a mission over "completing a mission."
Although he had only been playing Elven Nation for less than half a year, he had already fallen deeply in love with this magical world and its customs.
In his eyes, this was no longer a simple game. It was a rich and colorful world with a grand background. The NPCs here were no longer just NPCs. They were more like lively characters that he encountered on his journey.
He liked to put himself in the shoes of a player in the game. He would play the game as a part of the world and go on this journey.
Therefore, in his eyes, the priest profession should be quite sacred.
Even if the Goddess of Life's teachings were ignored, saving the dying, healing the wounded, and leading people to do good was a very noble job.
Moreover, he was a bit of a clean freak, so … although Caesar was amazed by Demacia and the others' efficient preaching, he was not used to their attitude of being willing to do anything to achieve their goals.
At least … he could not deceive the NPCs for the sake of preaching.
Of course, this might be a bit harsh, but Demacia and the others' strategy was obviously based on some indescribable experience in Bluestar. Caesar himself was actually more resistant to such things because of his personal experience.
In his eyes, he preferred to be alone and use his sincerity to influence the residents here.
It might sound ridiculous, but Caesar really did think this way.
The actions of Demacia and the others also gave him inspiration.
That was to save the dying and heal the wounded.
Caesar was a druid who specialized in healing, so he had already exchanged a lot of healing spells.
Therefore, after being inspired, he started to help the residents who needed help free of charge. In the process, he relied on the [Sacred Book of Life] to spread the Goddess' faith.
And it turned out that his choice was not bad.
Although the efficiency was not as high as the team, he successfully influenced several mixed-blood residents in this way and became a priest trainee.
Not only that, but one of them even directly became a devout believer and chose to follow him.
And this made Caesar have a guess.
"If I treat them with sincerity, will it be easier to walk into the hearts of the NPCs and make their faith stronger?"
With this thought in mind, he took on a new priest's exclusive quest and planned to go to a village to build a temple and continue preaching.
Of course, this time he was not alone.
Beside him, there were a few residents who had been influenced by him, including Jasmine Undermoon, who had been promoted to Silver Weapon Master.
"Caesar, I have already given up on being a priest, why are you still calling me?"
Jasmine Undermoon asked curiously while looking at Caesar who was wearing a druid robe and holding the [Sacred Book of Life] published by the Amway Chamber of Commerce.
Hearing her words, Caesar faintly smiled.
"I know, it's just that … Jasmine, you haven't interacted much with NPCs, so I want to take this opportunity to show you a different world."
"You are becoming more and more like a charlatan."
The girl glanced at Caesar and muttered.
Of course, she did not refuse.
The group's destination was a small town called "Flower Town", which was famous for its flowers.
The town was small, with a population of less than 5,000. The buildings were the same as most of the buildings in the Orloss Demiplane, with faint traces of elven style.
The arrival of Caesar and the others was warmly welcomed by the town's residents.
After all, the elves had the reputation of being gods in this demiplane and had a transcendent status. Although the town had yet to establish a temple, the name of the Goddess of Life had long spread.
So much so that the devout believer who followed Caesar came from Flower Town.
It was precisely because he went to Segers City to inquire about the Church of Life and seek some kind of help that he met Caesar and was converted into a devout believer.
This time, the reason why Caesar chose this small town was because of his request.
"Hunt the giant beast that is harassing the town? If you can help the town solve the problem of the giant beast, the town will fully support the construction of the temple? "
After listening to the pleas of the townsfolk, Jasmine Undermoon raised her eyebrows slightly.
"That's right, now you know why I called you here? You are the best at hunting magic beasts. "
Caesar laughed.
Jasmine Undermoon was noncommittal and even somewhat eager to give it a try.
She had just exchanged for a low-silver purple epic longsword and had yet to try it out.
However, the town mayor who received them was somewhat hesitant.
"Lord of the gods, no … Lord of the elves, that giant beast is said to be at the peak of the third rank. It is incomparably terrifying and extremely fast. If Lady Jasmine Undermoon is alone …"
"Third rank? In the main plane, it is only at the upper iron rank. "
Jasmine Undermoon shook her head.
Caesar also smiled faintly.
"Don't worry, Mr. Mayor, she can handle it."
And so, under the expectant and apprehensive gazes of the townsfolk, the two of them set up camp in the town.
Jasmine Undermoon used her hunting experience and began to lead the townsfolk to set up traps around the town to prevent the target from escaping. Caesar, on the other hand, used healing magic and the divine spells he had just learned to treat the townsfolk.
They did not have to wait long as the giant beast attacked that very night.
It was a five-meter-long Swift Shadow Wolf that had reached the peak of the upper iron rank. It was extremely cunning and ferocious.
This kind of strength could be said to be quite terrifying for the townsfolk whose average battle strength was only at the lower iron rank.
However, its good days had come to an end.
After the Swift Shadow Wolf entered the town, Jasmine Undermoon made her move without hesitation.
In an instant, her sword flashed.
The strength of a silver was far beyond that of an iron rank.
And Jasmine Undermoon herself had extraordinary battle experience.
Unsurprisingly, this extremely fast giant beast didn't even last three moves before she finished it off with a single slash of her sword.
With a mournful howl, the giant beast slowly fell to the ground.
However, its body did not turn into ashes.
This was because Jasmine Undermoon had taken a fancy to its fur and had purposely turned off the ability to gain experience.
"So … … the surprise you gave me was this wolf? Its fur is really good. I can ask the Dark Dwarves to make a robe for you. "
Jasmine Undermoon said while wiping her sword.
However, Caesar shook his head.
"That's not the case. You'll know tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?"
Jasmine Undermoon tilted her head.
The night passed quickly.
The next day, when the townsfolk saw the giant wolf's corpse, they immediately went into an uproar.
The whole town was decorated with lanterns and banners as if it was a festival.
"Hahaha, the giant beast is finally dead!"
"Awesome, now we don't have to worry about being attacked."
"Thank you, Lord God!"
The townsfolk were very excited.
And as the biggest contributor, Jasmine Undermoon received even more enthusiastic thanks from the townsfolk.
She was almost surrounded inside and out, and everyone was thanking her.
Some offered various local specialties to express their gratitude, while others invited Jasmine Undermoon to their homes as guests.
All the townsfolk were very enthusiastic and treated her as a benefactor.
Jasmine Undermoon was a little overwhelmed by the heartfelt gratitude, and the unreserved sincerity and enthusiasm.
She was a competitive player, and she never cared about NPCs.
This was the first time she had received such gratitude from an NPC.
She spent the whole day entertaining the townsfolk who came to express their gratitude. In the inn where she and Caesar were staying, the gifts from the townsfolk piled up into a small mountain.
It was not until late at night when the celebration party for Jasmine Undermoon ended that the girl was finally free … …
She lay on the bed like an exhausted dog and finally had the time to catch her breath.
"I'm so tired … … These people are too enthusiastic! That's why I don't like dealing with NPCs! "
However, after hearing her words, Caesar smiled slightly.
"Really? You seem to be enjoying it. The corners of your mouth can't help but curve upwards. "
Jasmine Undermoon was slightly startled after hearing Caesar's words.
"If you don't believe me, take a look."
Caesar picked up a mirror and pointed it at Jasmine Undermoon.
Through the mirror, the girl looked at her reflection.
She looked exhausted. After all, she had social anxiety, and after being surrounded by townsfolk for an entire day, she was on the verge of collapse.
However, the corners of her mouth were curled upwards, and even the corners of her eyes were relaxed. It was obvious that she was in a good mood.
Jasmine Undermoon was slightly startled by her own appearance.
Then, she heard Caesar's words again.
"Jasmine, I think that you've been influenced by those games in the past to not like dealing with NPCs. Elven Nation is different from other games. If you look deeper, you'll find that the NPC system here is very charming. "
"Here, NPCs are no longer just NPCs. We can really become friends with NPCs."
Become friends … …
Jasmine Undermoon fell into silence.
She turned her head and looked at the mountainous pile of gifts. Her mood was complicated.
She liked competitive games, and she hated the story.
However, was this really the case?
Orloss's story had also touched her.
Although she was complaining when she talked to the townsfolk today, her expression betrayed her inner thoughts.
If anything, it could only be said that she had never really thought about understanding the story and NPCs in Elven Nation.
She had social anxiety, and the environment of Elven Nation always made her feel like she was in the real world, so she subconsciously refused to interact with them.
However, today's mission had vaguely changed her way of thinking …
"Perhaps."
After a moment of silence, Jasmine Undermoon sighed.
After saying that, she began to pack her things and prepared to go to bed.
"You're going to sleep so soon?"
Caesar was slightly surprised.
"I'm tired. Rest early so that we can build the temple together tomorrow."
Jasmine Undermoon replied.
After saying that, she closed the door.
Caesar was startled for a moment before a smile appeared on his face.
The fun in Elven Nation was not limited to competitive games.
Interacting with NPCs and participating in the story were the main reasons why many players were addicted to this game.
He sincerely hoped that Jasmine Undermoon would be able to enjoy this fun.
… …
Caesar's quest with Jasmine Undermoon was just an interlude.
As more and more players ventured deeper into the Demiplane, the Temple of Life began to appear in various villages and cities.
With the Church of Creation as the foundation, it was very convenient to build the Temple of Life.
Most of the time, as long as the original building was repaired, local townsfolk who had accepted Eve's faith would be moved in as probationary priests, or priest players who were interested would be moved in as priests.
In fact, this was Eve's plan to officially establish a complete network of believers in the Orloss Demiplane.
Once the church connected the entire Demiplane, Eve would be able to truly integrate the three million people into her management system.
After that, whether it was spreading her faith or strengthening the management of the Demiplane, it would be much easier.
And the church system in the Demiplane would gradually grow into a monolithic structure … …
The players were working hard.
The number of new believers was also rapidly increasing.
Not only that, but Eve's observation also showed signs of snowballing.
However, although there were more and more believers, there was another problem that had to be considered.
That was, although the players could guide many of the Orloss Demiplane's residents to convert, the players were not true priests of life. Many of them only knew how to use the Holy Bible of Life at the last minute.
They only knew a little about the Church of Life's teachings at most.
Under such circumstances, it was not easy to convert a new believer from a shallow believer to a devout believer.
This was also the case.
Although the number of new believers had increased by more than ten thousand in a dozen days, there were only four hundred devout believers.
And if Eve wanted to rely on the believers to sense the location of the previous God's Kingdom, she would need at least half of them to be devout believers.
However, it wasn't as if Eve didn't have a solution for this matter.
The activities of the players were very helpful in spreading her faith.
However, the core of the church was still the True God, and in order to have more believers, the True God had to be powerful enough.
And Eve still had a trump card that she had prepared long ago that she had not used.
That was bloodline purification.
"The proportion of devout believers is still too low. It's time to send out an oracle to select suitable believers in the Demiplane and allow them to purify their bloodline into Half-Elves and Elves.
This way, not only will I be able to motivate the believers, but I will also be able to increase the quality of my believers. "
Eve muttered to herself.
Bloodline purification could be used as a method of motivation.
In order to obtain the recognition of the True God, awaken a stronger bloodline, and obtain a longer lifespan, the believers would naturally work hard to become more devout … …
This was an open scheme.
An open scheme that killed two birds with one stone.
