In the Temple of Nature on the trunk of the World Tree.
Alice, the Saintess of Nature, and Sammir, the old priest, were kneeling in front of the statue.
They lowered their heads, and their expressions were full of joy and deep shame …
At this moment, Alice's body seemed to have undergone some inexplicable changes, and she was filled with a sense of holiness and holiness.
The old priest, who had recovered, also seemed to have undergone some subtle changes.
The oak tree guard, Basaka, stood aside with a solemn and fanatical expression, like a statue …
"Did I go overboard with my lies?"
In the Divine Personality Space, looking at the number of believers column in her information box, Eve swallowed a mouthful of saliva in her consciousness.
[Number of believers: 3 (Saint 1, Fanatic 2, Devout 0, Shallow 0)]
The power of Eve's operation was far beyond her own imagination.
Originally, she thought that by providing timely help, it might be better for the two to regain their faith, but she did not expect the effect to be so strong!
Alice, the Saintess, who was a devout believer before, not only regained her faith after this incident, but she also surpassed the level of fanatic and became a rare Saint!
As for the old shaman who was saved, he became a fanatic like the Oak Tree Guard!
Eve could not forget the scene of the old priest falling to the ground, patting himself and crying like a child after he realized what had happened.
Endless expectations, coupled with the final despair, the appearance of hope at this moment, the shock and effect it brought was absolutely extraordinary.
"No wonder God wants believers to suffer. Suffering a little and then giving a red date, this effect is even stronger … Hmm, could this be … Stockholm Syndrome?"
Eve sighed and checked her divine power value.
[Divine Power Value: 20500]
Increasing believers could provide her with a steady stream of faith and thus convert her divine power value. This was what she had expected from a long time ago.
However, the amount of faith brought by the high-level believers still surprised him.
Originally, she only had 10 points of divine power left, and in order to heal the two elves, she had consumed another point. But when the two elves recovered their faith, they provided her with 6 points of divine power value!
This … was too exaggerated.
After all, he had only used 5 Divine Power Points to awaken Basaka.
But soon, Eve discovered that Alice and Roland seemed to have been blessed with some kind of inexplicable power. When they recovered their faith, they burst out together, causing their Divine Power to sharply increase.
This kind of power was similar to the Power of Will.
Besides …
Basaka, the Oak Tree Guard who had killed more than twenty Half-Orcs, had actually provided him with five Divine Power Points!
Eve had a strange feeling in her heart.
If the changes in Alice and Sammir had surprised him, then the oak tree guard, Basaka, had been horrified.
Although Basaka had sacrificed all the life force of the Half-Orcs to him, no matter how one looked at it, the life force of more than 20 Half-Orcs, whose average strength was only at the middle level of Dark Iron, was not even worth 5 Divine Power Points.
Not to mention five points, even one point was enough.
However, the 5 Divine Power Points earlier did not seem to be converted from the Beastman's life force. There seemed to be something else …
This kind of power was very similar to that of Alice and Roland.
And after looking up the inheritance information of the World Tree, Eve had some speculations.
Those Half-Orcs were elven hunters all year round, and they had accumulated the resentment of countless elves. As the main god of the elves, killing them was to satisfy the wishes of those dead souls.
The stronger and more intelligent the creature, the stronger the resentment after death.
And elves were originally long-lived intelligent creatures, and they were born with a magical constitution. The resentment produced by the deaths of countless elves over thousands of years was definitely not a small number.
Resentment was also a kind of spiritual energy, and it had the same effect as the Power of Faith. Ownerless resentment and souls would fall into the underworld with the death of creatures.
Eve had killed these hunters and fulfilled the duty of the "main god of the elves." Thus, these years of resentment turned into gratitude and sublimated into the Power of Faith. Finally, it crossed the void and fed back to Eve in the form of Divine Power Points.
Not only that, even the Power of Faith provided by the two priests had the shadow of elven resentment!
This … made Eve very surprised.
"In other words, other than strengthening the power of faith, I can also destroy the enemies of the elves and rebuild the glory of the elves. I can obtain the recognition of the dead souls and quickly recover my strength! Not only that, the War Sacrifice skill seems to have a lot of potential, and it can indirectly provide me with power … "
Eve came to such a conclusion.
But soon, she felt that this was useless …
"The enemies of the elves that I can deal with … Directly speaking, most of them should belong to the hunting teams, but in fact, the number of these hunting teams is limited. Even if I catch all of them, I'm afraid I won't be able to recover much strength. As for the indirect ones, as well as the real culprits, I'm unable to deal with them now … "
"In addition, the amount of resentment of these undead souls seems to be large, but it's actually very limited. It's estimated that I can only repay a large amount in the early stages. Relying on the resentment of the undead souls alone, I'm afraid that at most, I can only get out of the state of near death. "
"And if I want to rebuild the glory of the elves, I need enough helpers. In other words, I need to gather the remaining elves to be able to do it. In addition, I need a large number of believers to indirectly provide me with power through the War Sacrifice … "
"This number, I'm afraid, is at least in the tens of thousands, or even millions …"
"But how many elves are there now?"
Previously, when she 'listened in' on the conversation between Alice and Sammir, Eve already had a 70-80% understanding of the current situation of the elves.
Generally speaking, when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter, and less than ten percent of the elves remain. The remaining elves are also hiding, and more than half of the originally glorious civilization has been destroyed …
"If I really have enough time to gather the elves, my faith will more or less recover. In that case … this can't be considered a shortcut …"
"And if I want to rebuild the elven civilization, it'll be even more difficult. The population base required for a civilization is quite large."
The more she thought about it, the more disappointed Eve felt.
"It's still too weak. If it was the World Tree at its peak, I wouldn't have to worry about the population problem at all. I could just consume my divine power to give birth to the first elves."
The first elves were the first generation of the elves. They were the first elves born from the World Tree.
"But then again, if I really have the strength to give birth to the first elves, there's no need to rely on rebuilding the elven civilization to restore my strength. This is simply a dead knot!"
Thinking of this, Eve felt helpless.
Giving birth to the first elves consumed too much divine power for the current Eve.
To be more precise, to give birth to the soul of the first elves, it would consume too much divine power for the World Tree, which was not in a good state.
Eve had the priesthood of 'Life', and in theory, she had the ability to give birth to souls.
But in her current state, she had almost lost this ability. If she forcibly used it, the consumption of divine power would be much greater than in a normal state.
For example, if the consumption of giving birth to a soul in her peak state was 1, then the consumption in a weakened state might be 10 …
Not to mention giving birth to a soul, even 'enlightening' Basaka's soul had consumed 5 of her divine power!
That's right, 'enlightening' a soul.
When enlightening Basaka, Eve had forcibly used her ability.
And among the 5 divine power points consumed, most of them were used on souls. The consumption of giving vitality and silver strength to the oak guard was actually very, very little …
And in Eve's current state, giving birth to the soul of the first elves out of nothing would consume even more.
If it was just giving birth to a body, it would not consume much.
But if she did not give it a soul, then what was born was just an empty shell. It was useless at all.
Of course, as Eve's strength recovered, the consumption of her giving birth to a soul would gradually decrease … Finally, she would return to the state of a normal born first elf.
At that time, she would not even need 1 point of divine power to give birth to a soul!
But that was too far away, and Eve could not wait.
This was actually a matter of time and efficiency.
"Could it be that I can only gather my people bit by bit and restore faith to improve my strength? If that's the case … I'm afraid it will take hundreds of years? "
Too long!
Moreover, she was not without enemies. After inheriting the World Tree, Eve had also inherited the enemies of the previous World Tree. Those old guys were also existences of true gods!
Previously, the main body of the World Tree had been stable for a thousand years because the previous World Tree had used all its strength to cast a curse spell on her main body at the end of the war of gods.
Under this spell, except for nature believers, no one below the level of a true god could touch the main body of the World Tree.
And after the war of gods, the magic power of the World of Segers became more and more low. The passage between heaven and the secular plane was also closed. The true gods of heaven could not descend in their true bodies, and the true gods of the secular world fell into a deep sleep …
Under these circumstances, the World Tree was preserved.
But when Eve inherited the inheritance, this spell had already been broken.
If Eve did not have enough strength and was still in a state of near-death, then even if a few enemies with legendary strength came, she would not be able to protect herself.
"It would be great if there was a way to find a large number of souls. Speaking of which, if there were souls, I would only have to worry about the body and could use a trick to give birth to elves … This way, the population problem would be solved. Then I would continue to gather the remaining people, strengthen faith, and gradually rise … "
But … where could she find souls? Because of the existence of faith, almost all the souls in this world had masters! And she could not enter the Underworld …
Moreover, even if she could find souls that she could use, the other party had to be willing to be controlled by her.
"It's too difficult."
Eve was bored to death as she surfed the Internet in the Divine Personality Space while lamenting …
"Wait …"
Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, her consciousness trembled, and she stared thoughtfully at the Internet channel in Bluestar.
"There seems to be a way …"
