However...
Such a scene did not happen.
The elves suddenly discovered that after running several dozen ters towards their clansn who were coming to support them, they could no longer advance.
As if they encountered an invisible barrier...
They saw these clansn either running in place, clawing at the air, writhing like worms, or simply standing still...
Although they were still cheering, they could no longer take a single step forward.
The elves:...
Watching this bizarre and amusing scene, which inexplicably ruined the touching atmosphere, they all fell into a daze.
However, being carried on a stretcher by the elves, Selena, who knew the truth, couldn’t help but cover her face.
She coughed while explaining with difficulty,
"They are the Chosen Ones, they can’t leave the area prescribed by the Goddess, so... this should be their maximum range of activity."
The Chosen Ones?
The elves were all taken aback.
"This... is this the Chosen Ones? The legendary elf army created by the Goddess with the help of the Death God?"
They exclaid.
Throughout the journey, including in the Aries Kingdom, they had heard the na of the Chosen Ones more than once.
With the war in the Underworld, the divine na of the Life Goddess Eve had already begun to spread in the Segis World. Along with it, the legend of the loyal, nurous elf army, possessing the resurrection ability akin to the Heroic Spirit Army—the Chosen Ones!
Although many believed the rumors to be exaggerated, one thing was absolutely certain.
That was, the identity of the Chosen Ones signified a core force of the Life Goddess Eve, and the Chosen Ones were crucial contributors to the resurgence of the Elf Clan!
For a mont, the elves were filled with respect.
They no longer hesitated, continued forward, and finally united with the players.
As soon as they ca into contact, the players enthusiastically surrounded them. Almost every elf was approached by several players, who inquired about their well-being while handing them various fruits they carried and healing their wounds.
Among them, the players around Selena were the most.
"Miss Selena, long ti no see!"
"Lady Selena, did you co from the Dark Mountain Range this ti, did you go south to support the clansn?"
"Lady Selena, you’ve worked hard along the way. You seem a bit unwell, I just got promoted to an official priest, let heal you quickly!"
The players were very enthusiastic.
However, Selena felt a bit embarrassed.
Because she found that these Chosen Ones knew her, yet she did not know them, at most so looked familiar...
*Actually, there was a reason for this.*
*Selena was a devout believer and had returned to the Elf Forest. She had already activated the mission system and could issue tasks to the Chosen Ones.*
*In the eyes of the players, she was the only white template NPC in the entire team!*
*Any elf who had activated the mission system would have their na appear in the players’ vision, and quite a few even had an impression of Selena...*
*Conversely, with so many players, it was impossible for Selena to recognize them all.*
However, as the players healed the elves, Selena noticed that those elves wearing priest robes were real priests because they were using actual Divine Arts!
Not only that, Selena also found that they were able to clearly identify among the group of elves which people’s faith was not so devout.
Because those clansn who still held doubts about the Life Goddess were surrounded by the Chosen One Priests, listening in bewildernt to their preaching of the Life God Sect...
Selena:...
"The Chosen Ones... Have they finally begun to accept the faith of the Goddess and devote themselves to spreading the teachings?"
*At this mont, she felt inexplicably gratified.*
However, she was not worried about those clansn.
*Because facts had proven ti and again, those clansn who held doubts about the Life Goddess often beca the ones whose faith transford the fastest and beca the most devout believers in the Life Goddess Eve after returning to the Elf Forest and learning the truth about the Life Goddess...*
*Because their doubt was, in essence, a form of persistence in the Mother Goddess, in the World Tree.*
The players’ healing was very effective.
Even though they were rely Black Iron Lower rank priests, they had already stabilized Selena’s condition.
And as soon as her condition stabilized, she couldn’t help but start assigning tasks to the players,
"Chosen Ones, please quickly take to see Alice, and Lord Ling, I have important news to report..."
"Important news to report?"
Hearing her words, the players’ eyes lit up.
Their gazes glead, like hungry wolves spotting delicious food.
*At this mont, the players caught the scent of a story...*
...
Encircled by the players, the group of elves successfully returned to the Elf Forest. Selena, while receiving deep healing, t with Life Saintess Alice and Divine Favored Zero in the resting room of the Chosen City temple.
And she relayed the information she knew to them.
"You an, the information obtained from the Aries Kingdom indicates that the Half-Beasts of the Death Desert are stirring again, beginning various ambushes on the returning elves, and not only that... through the informants embedded in the underground black market of the Aries Kingdom, you also found out that Sorren Comrce has been continuously active recently, transporting a large number of strategic materials to the Death Desert?"
The Life Goddess Eve, manifesting in the guise of Divine Favored Zero, raised her eyebrows slightly, speaking softly.
And Selena, whose complexion had already improved, nodded solemnly,
"Yes, exactly."
"Although Sorren Comrce is a smuggling syndicate, its power and influence are already comparable to a small human nation."
"I suspect... the Half-Beasts have already connected with Sorren Comrce, and their target... is our Elf Clan."
