Chapter 770: Chapter 587: The Spread of Faith (2)
Among them, most were residents of the Oros Half-plane.
The last ti, after Eve’s “Sky Patching” Divine Miracle, almost 1.7 million people in the entire plane had beco her believers. Now, having expanded to over two million, was only a natural progression.
Of course, the total population of the entire half-plane was just a little over three million, so the number of believers was about to reach its peak.
To have more believers, efforts would have to focus on other half-planes, or even directly on the Segis World.
While Eve was delighted with this result, she remained quite calm.
More believers weren’t necessarily better; the quality of believers also mattered.
The faith power provided by devout believers was incomparable to that of shallow believers.
And the faith power provided by the Silver Race, the Gold Race, or strong beings among worldly creatures, could not be compared with ordinary intelligent life forms.
Of course, this didn’t an having more believers was useless.
For instance, the Eternal Lord, who had almost only human believers, was worshipped by over half of the Human World. That number was quite exaggerated, enough for quantitative change to cause qualitative change.
Not to ntion, humans had such an exaggerated base number, enough to nurture a terrifying number of powerful adventurers.
However, environntal restrictions inevitably made it impossible for Eve to take the route of quantity through faith. She could only focus on quality.
In this regard, Eve found solace in the changing number of elf believers.
Like the total number of believers, Eve’s elf and half-elf believers also experienced explosive growth. Although not as exaggerated as the total number, they still exceeded ten thousand, with half-elves surpassing twenty thousand.
Of course, the vast majority of these elves and half-elves were elf-human hybrids from the Oros Half-plane whose bloodlines had been purified.
They were a civilization spread by elves, and so habits and customs in their bones were similar to those of the elves.
The only obvious difference was probably that they didn’t have the stubborn mindset of the native elves of the Segis World, which was exactly what Eve wanted to eliminate.
Therefore, after so learning and assessnt, most were able to pass the tests smoothly as long as their faith was devout enough, and were assimilated by the elves.
These purified-blood elves also beca targets of competition among the players.
More accurately, they were targets of competition for the seven player cities.
Purified-blood elves had undoubtedly reached a level of devout believers.
And every devout elf believer of Eve could open Divine Favor, obtaining the ability known as the “Quest System.”
They could use these believers to issue quests to the Chosen Ones.
For the believers, it was the recognition of the True God, a trendous honor.
And for the players, these devout elf believers were walking white-template NPCs!
Naturally, every effort was made to draw them into their own city to enrich the main city’s task system.
And if any fanatic believer from the half-plane purified their bloodline, they would be frantically coveted by the players!
Fanatic believers corresponded to blue NPCs, capable of issuing quests with higher rewards—there were very few such NPCs in the entire server.
And subtly, the seven player cities even considered the number of NPCs residing in them, along with the presence of blue NPCs, as selling points to attract new players.
No surprise there, with rewards from NPC-issued tasks being so tempting, and being able to increase favorability, high favorability even resulted in increased reputation rating…
For the “Elf Kingdom,” where the reputation system was tied to store discounts, NPC favor was money!
However, an interesting point was that, aside from the city Greyport of the Nature’s Heart Guild, known for its sycophants due to Li Mu’s leadership role, the second-most attractive city for elf believers wasn’t the Mountain Peak City of the ngng Committee, nor Shangjing, praised for its architecture by elves, but the unexpected Lordaeron of the Azeroth Alliance…
Although Eve found this guild alliance’s choice of city na unlucky, the players were happy, so she didn’t interfere much.
Even All-Star chose Atlantis, which should be counted among the unlucky nas.
As for why Lordaeron beca the second-most attractive city for elf believers after Greyport…
The reason was simple and realistic.
Lordaeron was relatively close to the Beautiful City of Cenolan, making it easy to use the teleportation array to visit ho…
Many elves didn’t stop going back once they entered the Segis World.
On the contrary… many people often returned to Oros to visit.
After all, everyone has friends and family, and returning ho after purifying their bloodline was, for them, a different kind of glorious return.
However, what surprised Eve more was the sudden increase in Half-Beast believers and the explosive growth in human believers.
For the forr, Eve could understand.
The surrendered Half-Beasts had beco subjects of the Elf Clan—or more accurately, vassals of the players. The players were even more enthusiastic than the elves in transforming their minds.
It was the sudden ergence of several thousand human believers that left Eve puzzled.
She knew about the Oak Hand, a rescue elf organization active in the Human World with so human mbers, many of whom had beco her believers.
But the mbers of Oak Hand were very few, mostly elves and half-elves, and could never produce over four thousand humans.
