Xi Wei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the Players had the situation under control.
Since he was used to the Players being unstoppable, he did not pay too much attention to the event, which was why the Players almost got wiped out in a moment of carelessness.
It was fortunate that the little Saintess he found was reliable, and managed to give him an excuse to intervene, allowing the Players to return.
Otherwise, Xi Wei felt like he was going to deflate from the loss.
"Damn it. What the hell did those high elves come up with?"
Be that as it may, when Xi Wei used tentacles invisible to mortals to deal with the tortoise colossus, the Elven Synchronized Intellect Nation (SIN) within the tortoise colossus resisted.
Xi Wei couldn't help being shocked.
He was no longer the noob god he was when he first transmigrated, but a proper Intermediate God. He could take down ten evil gods like Rotten Bones with a single tentacle!
Not to mention the beings in the mortal realm that couldn't stand up to the gods.
And yet, the Elven Synchronized Intellect Nation (SIN) inside the tortoise colossus was different. After Xi Wei tried sneakily, he realized that he couldn't directly drag it into his divine kingdom!
That 'weight' that wasn't in the physical sense alone was enough for Xi Wei to take the Elven Synchronized Intellect Nation seriously.
Hence, he simply cut off a small portion of his divine power and turned it into a clone that descended inside the Elven Synchronized Intellect Nation (SIN). In the end, it didn't take long before it was corrupted and twisted by an unfamiliar power, turning into an unnamable monster.
It must have been the Mystery that the high elves had made a deal with an unknown god.
Xi Wei recalled his distorted clone back to his divine kingdom and studied it for a while, and soon gained a certain understanding of that Mystery.
First of all, though it was unfamiliar, a closer look would reveal that the essence of that Mystery was still divine power.
There was no telling what the high elves had done to that divine power, or what that divine power had done to the high elves. Either way, that divine power was now completely distorted, and there was no way to distinguish the divine order and authority of its original owner.
If an ordinary person were to casually touch this mystery, they would quickly be driven insane by the strange whispers that were everywhere. Even their souls would become turbid, and in the end, they would be completely contaminated by the divine power, turning into a twisted monster.
Still, it was a divine power without a master for Xi Wei. Even if its original owner was the Seven Divine Fathers, they probably wouldn't be able to sense it after it was twisted into the shape of a bird, let alone control it.
There was no reason for Xi Wei not to eat such a huge tonic in front of him.
"But for the players, they need to make some adjustments …"
While the Players could be revived, they were still humans who had just taken the first step into the supernatural. Their souls were no different from normal humans, which was why they could be corrupted and distorted if they recklessly barged in, and not even Xi Wei could save them when that happened.
That was why Xi Wei had to separate them from those sinister whispers right from the start.
"Wall of the Heart and Mental Defense … Hmm, it's too extravagant to give all the players a set. Also, the event needs a reward as a prize." Xi Wei checked his inventory of divine power and divine energy, reluctant to throw out such a huge amount of energy.
"Wait a minute? If this spiritual corruption is part of the Mystery created by the high elves, could I extract a part of the high elves' system of controlling Mystery? "
At that very thought, Xi Wei promptly disassembled his corrupted clone, and as expected, he managed to disassemble something from the distortion.
"Interesting … it would still take a lot of my divine power to protect the Players, but I wouldn't have to worry about not getting anything in the early game. If the Players could conquer the entire Elven Synchronized Intellect Nation (SIN), I would earn a fortune!"
At that thought, Xi Wei hesitated no longer. After developing a new defensive measure for every Player, he clicked away at the Pantheon Computer and finally made the content of the event.
In the next split second, every Player finally saw the full content of the event:
[Elven Synchronized Intellect Nation: Ancient Sin]
[Event Details: The mystery of the high elves that had slumbered for a thousand years has resurfaced in the world under the guidance of an undead with a sorrowful will, containing profound secrets and great power that could touch the gods. Even so, the God of Games who stood in the skies had sensed the ominous presence swirling around the elven ruins. It was not a gospel from ancient times, but a portent of destruction. Hence, the great deity invites all of you to conquer the high elven ruins before calamity befalls them, and cut off the source of the Great Sin!]
[Event Duration: 7 days]
[Event Prerequisites: Players above Level 5 may enter the Faint Crystal Stratum, Deep Wall Stratum at Level 15, Dark Sky at Level 25, and Steel Earth at Level 35. The Eternal Tome has no level requirement, but the first four stratums must be cleared.]
[Event Details: Players may enter the Elven SIN dungeon under the guidance of Eleena Meredith, Saintess-in-training.
The Elven SIN is divided into the Faint Crystal Stratum, Deep Wall Stratum, Dark Sky Stratum, Steel Earth, and the Eternal Tome.
Defeating the Stratum Lord to gain control of the corresponding stratum means that the stratum is cleared successfully (all Players share the clearing progress), and clearing the Eternal Tome within the event duration is a success.
Players will be judged according to their individual damage output, healing allies, damage taken, and other actions during the clearing process. Players will be rewarded with corresponding elven arcane texts.]
[Event Reward: There are no additional items to be redeemed in this event, but ancient elven arcane texts can be melted into high elven runes. High elven runes can be embedded into equipment and weapons, and the more arcane texts invested, the higher the chance of obtaining high-grade runes. Runes can be combined into affixes, improving the performance of equipment to the next level.]
[List of high elven runes (Click here to view)]
[Note: Embedding runes can be done in the Starter Town, the Lancaster Hideout, Tunaya City, or the Long Ears' blacksmith shop.
One rune can be embedded into white normal-grade equipment, two runes into blue superior-grade equipment, three runes into purple epic-grade equipment, and four runes into golden-grade equipment.]
[Note: Unwanted runes can be removed at designated blacksmiths, but the runes will not be returned after removal. Instead, the corresponding rune slot will be emptied for the weapon.]
