The other elves’ eyes lit up.
"Could it be... we’ve really triggered a hidden plot?"
Taken to the temple of Winter City?
Upon hearing this, Atos beca instantly invigorated, and his expression turned solemn.
The Goddess of Life... had truly noticed him.
But in the next second, he realized the elves suddenly stopped talking.
Atos turned his head, and then saw a dozen pairs of curious big eyes suddenly staring at him in unison.
Those gazes gave him, a demigod, a feeling that sothing wasn’t quite right.
"Since the Goddess of Life has already issued a divine decree, why aren’t you leading the way!"
He reprimanded them,
yet he felt slightly lacking in confidence.
Afterward, Atos saw the elves suddenly get excited again:
"Holy crap! I was wondering why that beastman turned to ash under divine punishnt, yet he was still alive. So, he wasn’t a legend, he’s a demigod!"
"A demigod! Hahaha! We actually laid an ambush for a demigod!"
Atos: ...
How did they... find out about his identity?
*He was slightly stunned.*
Of course, he would never know that just monts ago, the players present had simultaneously received a "Demigod Envoy" mission.
The task was to escort him back.
In fact, to make clear distinctions and prevent players from getting too enthusiastic upon seeing a high-level NPC, the mission even specially marked him with a "potential adversary" tag.
"Hey, hey, are you... cough, excuse , are you really a demigod?"
The leading elf gazed at Atos.
Atos: ...
His face twitched slightly, feeling the rampaging divine power within him, and he snorted coldly:
"What do you think?"
Upon learning Atos’s demigod identity, the players beca even more excited.
Until a weak voice spoke up:
"Then... the silver blood he’s shedding must be a top treasure, right?"
Silence.
The scene fell silent imdiately.
Over a dozen pairs of eyes suddenly focused again on Atos, this ti... he suddenly felt that these long-eared gazes had a faint green glint.
Then, they surrounded him in unison.
Atos: ...
"What do you want to do?!"
"Don’t co any closer..."
...
Atos was carried to Winter City.
He didn’t know how these elves managed to have all sorts of strange items, always carrying a stretcher when they went out.
Although this thod of entering was far beyond Atos’s original expectations and greatly bruised his self-esteem, the power of divine punishnt hadn’t been cleared, so he really couldn’t move on his own...
However, compared to the elves’ behavior along the way, Atos thought being carried to et the Goddess of Life was nothing...
These hateful guys... after knowing his identity, actually targeted his divine blood!
All along the way, these despicable bastards were collecting his blood under the guise of healing him!
Atos didn’t even know if the Goddess of Life had noticed this process...
Sha...
It was truly shaful.
Atos felt he had never been treated this way, not even in life!
*At this mont, he truly regretted not hiding his form and directly entering the temple of Winter City for a visit...*
*If he could have avoided these bastards, he wouldn’t have been humiliated like today.*
*But there was no if.*
He originally just wanted to use the divine might of the War God to intimidate the Goddess of Life and her worshipping elves a little.
This was also tacitly approved by the War God.
But he hadn’t expected to be taught a lesson by a group of eccentric elves, none of whom were even silver mid-tier, before he had even t the Goddess of Life...
Atos had never felt ti drag so much.
He even lost the mood to explore Winter City, which he was originally very curious about, only seeing elves bouncing around, laughing nonchalantly, with hairstyles more eccentric than the last...
What grieved him further was that sohow, the whole city seed to know they had co into possession of a demigod, as if they had captured a divine envoy of the Pantheon...
A swarm of elves gathered around, making him feel as if he was being paraded as "spoils of war."
It wasn’t until they entered the Life Temple of Winter City that he finally escaped the grip of those terrifying elves...
The temple was managed by a beautiful female elf priestess.
When she saw the elves carrying Atos into the temple’s door, she nodded to them:
"Thank you for your hard work, you can leave now."
The other elves were very obedient.
Even though they had been rather unruly just now, they instantly put on ingratiating smiles when they saw the priestess.
While saying "It’s as it should be! It’s as it should be!", they dutifully retreated...
This contrast made Atos widen his eyes, not knowing the true identity of this elven priestess.
Clearly, in his perception, her strength wasn’t even comparable to many of the elves he had just encountered.
However, her attitude toward him moved him deeply:
"You must be the demigod wanting to et the Goddess. I’m sorry you’ve been troubled... sotis the Chosen Ones are not very reliable. However, if you revealed your identity earlier, there wouldn’t have been so much trouble."
Although her words still subtly pointed out that Atos should have revealed his identity sooner, there was a slightly acceptable reminder, but her tone and attitude compared to those annoying elves were worlds apart.
Warm, friendly.
*This is how elves should be!*
*Atos shouted in his heart...*
Of course, he didn’t know that the female elf in front of him was a genuine elf, while those other elves were just "imposters" disguised as elves.
