Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree Chapter 512: 472: An Unforeseen Path

Chapter 512: Chapter 472: An Unforeseen Path

The arrival of the Life Church shattered the millennia-long peace of the Oros Half-plane.

The players’ descent thoroughly changed the lives and perceptions of the half-plane’s residents.

Life Temples were established in cities and towns, and the faith in Goddess Eve began to spread like wildfire across the half-plane.

Unlike the decaying Creation God Sect, the clergy of the Life Church were passionate and vibrant.

At least… in the eyes of the residents, the players appeared this way.

In the Segis Universe, the belief in True Gods was still highly appealing to mortals.

Especially when this True God had saved the half-plane, and the doctrine was sothing people could identify with and aspire to.

Unlike the cold and quiet churches of the Creation God Sect when they controlled the plane, every Life Temple built was quickly flooded with seekers from all over.

Perhaps initially, it was the players who were preaching to the residents.

But as ti passed, even if the players didn’t deliberately preach, residents would gradually co to the temple on their own to listen to the divine faith.

Taylor was one of those seekers.

He had once been an adventurer, now thirty years old.

If it weren’t for the Life Church, Taylor would likely have ended up like those before him, his life ending at just over thirty…

However, the appearance of the Goddess of Life changed everything.

She thwarted the Creation God Church’s conspiracy, liberated the residents of the half-plane, and endowed people with new life.

Not only that, but Her divine race personally descended into this world, saving the dying and the wounded while preaching the True God’s path…

No one in this world hadn’t heard the legends of the divine race.

Taylor too, had heard myths from the creation from his mother since he was a child.

Everyone knew that it was the divine race that descended from the sky and taught humans language and the use of tools.

It was also the legendary divine race that led humanity towards civilization.

It could be said that, in the hearts of many residents, the divine race was sotis even more respected than the Creation God Sect.

However, legends were still just legends, and many truly regarded them as such.

Thus, when the divine race truly descended, it caused a trendous shock in people’s hearts…

And as soone who had never been fond of the Creation God Sect since childhood, when the divine race descended and Goddess Eve displayed divine miracles, Taylor instantly embraced the new faith.

He beca one of the first life believers in this world.

At the sa ti, he beca an outer mber of the Life Church, assisting the descending divine race in repairing the Life Temples.

As legends stepped into reality, *Taylor always felt an unreal sense of wonder.*

The divine race was as beautiful and powerful as the stories depicted.

Not only that, but they were also as selfless and kind as in the legends.

They did not plunder residents like the lackeys of the Creation God Sect, but instead, they opened preaching activities everywhere without expecting returns, and treated the residents’ ailnts free of charge.

For those villages and towns invaded by demon beasts, these kind divine races also stepped in enthusiastically to resolve the issues.

The divine race did not ask for anything in return.

It seed their greatest wish was for more people to listen to the teachings of the Goddess and for more people to beco believers of the Goddess.

The only thing that felt different to Taylor from what he had imagined was that the real divine race seed more lively than the legends portrayed.

Uh, yes, lively.

Although Taylor felt that using this term for the great divine beings seed a little disrespectful, that was indeed the feeling they gave him.

According to legend, the divine race, while also kind and selfless, appeared a bit stiff.

Yet, the divine race Taylor encountered in reality was obviously more vibrant and flexible.

They had no airs, easily mingling with anyone, whether a noble or a commoner, rich or a beggar.

In the eyes of these divine beings, Taylor felt true equality.

It seed that for them, statuses were false, but only faith was real.

This fervor and sincerity earned Taylor’s utmost respect.

Ahem, of course, *this was also because Taylor didn’t know that the players who descended and interacted with the residents were all aiming for the priest role.*

For the players, the goodwill of residents was crucial, and their only pursuit was to develop more believers.

In such situations, the residents’ status was wholly unimportant to them, as long as they could beco believers, they were good NPCs!

And to win the residents’ goodwill, they naturally wouldn’t easily behave recklessly, so what Taylor often saw was their friendly side…

Taylor was soone easily moved by emotions.

Following the divine race and witnessing them help fellow citizens one by one, seeing the increasingly lively residents and cities, *Taylor’s faith grew more steadfast.*

This was the first ti Taylor genuinely felt the protection of the True God Church for mortals…

In just a few days, he beca a devout life believer.

The divine race descended, bringing the path of salvific faith.

People flocked to convert, living truly happy lives under the guidance of the Life God Sect.

In Taylor’s view, this was the most perfect ending.

However, a sudden divine oracle left him in shock,

“What? The devout soul praying to the Goddess at the core temple of Segis City would have the opportunity to receive the Goddess’s blessing and beco a new divine being?”
