Chapter 156: Chapter 152: Eve's Plan (Two in One, Additional Update for Alliance Hierarch yyze)_2
 

“Aaaaaah! When will I have a piece of gold legendary equipment too!”

“It's too expensive… one piece costs tens of thousands of contribution points, enough to get two or three full sets of purple gear.”

“Speaking of which, isn't Little Xian Miao the only one fully decked out in gold gear now?”

“She's a big spender, we can't compete. I heard during a PK match, she activated the magic shield on her robe, and no one could harm her while she stood there.”

“Awesome!”

“Boss Boxed Meal also has a golden dagger, which I heard was exchanged for a limited edition in the mall, and it's particularly powerful among gold gear.”

“They're all power players. We better play it safe and aim for the purple and black gear instead. The ratings aren't too far apart…”

Looking at the newly listed equipment, the joy they felt upon graduation had completely vanished.

And seeing the contribution points needed for the purple epic Black Iron Middle Equipment, they felt their legs go weak:

“Wow… a purple legendary Black Iron Middle Equipment costs twenty to thirty thousand contribution points… why don't they just rob us?!”

“Oh no, my liver hurts again!”

“Don't mention it… let's just keep grinding.”

The players shook their heads, sighed, and left the side hall of the Natural Temple.

Although the gold legendary Black Iron equipment still had the highest rating, a few civilian players didn't consider it.

Because… you get what you pay for.

Even if higher-level equipment appears, the gold legendary Black Iron equipment's contribution points requirement was still nearly double that of the purple Black Iron…

There's no gold legendary equipment under fifty thousand contribution points.

…

“Well, let's leave it at that for now! The gold legendary equipment can be released later. After all, gold is the most precious, let's have the players get used to everything else first.”

After listing the equipment in the mall and observing players' reactions, Eve felt quite satisfied.

Though they cursed the developers slightly, the players still enthusiastically continued grinding missions.

After listing the equipment, Eve began to consider future development.

“This time I destroyed Uller's Demigod Envoy, he's definitely not going to let it go. But… with my warning, he'll probably retaliate through a faith war…”

Faith wars were considered a common form of conflict among True Gods.

In short, the True Gods didn't intervene themselves, but let battles among followers decide the outcome.

This rule was to protect the Main Material Plane where the followers resided.

After all, True Gods were so powerful that a full-scale intervention would cause terrifying damage to the material world, potentially even destroying the plane in the worst cases.

The Divine Power of a True God of Faith originated from faith, and faith, in turn, from believers… It could be said that believers were the cornerstone of a True God of Faith.

When a True God of Faith lost all believers in a faith war, her foundation was gone.

Prayers ascending into the Divine Country would gradually unite with the True God over time, meaning that even prayers weren't eternal, there'd always be an end, though this time frame was longer for ordinary beings.

And when believers vanished, prayers perished too, the True God of Faith entirely lost her source of Divine Power.

At that time, all that awaited her was either demise or slumber…

And for new gods, believers were even more crucial.

Established True Gods had countless prayers, abundant Divine Power, even if they lost their believers, they could linger for a time, seeking opportunities to restore faith.

But new gods were different, they had shallow roots, many didn't even have a Divine Country.

Even if they did, their prayers were limited, let alone Divine Power.

Generally speaking, just wipe out their believers, and a new god's demise was not far off.

So… Eve surmised that Uller would definitely choose to start a faith war!

Eve was masquerading as a new god.

To the average person, as long as her forces in the Elf Forest were destroyed, she was doomed.

And this… was exactly what Eve wanted.

War would bring death.

And large-scale war would give her the opportunity to absorb life force!

Uller's base of believers was still significant, with Eve using players as shields and spears to fight against Uller's followers, she could logically use the war sacrifices to steal their life force!

Over time… it would add up to something quite terrifying.

In fact, this was also how many Evil Gods grew stronger…

Most Evil Gods incited wars, conducting blood sacrifices to gain power.

However, unlike them, Eve absorbed only life force, not souls, hence she wasn't despised by the other gods.

Of course, Eve absolutely wouldn't admit to being an Evil God.

*”Her actions were merely reclaiming the lost life force during faith wars, without touching others' souls. How could that be considered evil?”*

*”Besides, is there any Evil God this good-looking?”*

*”Anyway… even if she didn't reclaim life force, it'd dissipate, might as well let her absorb it.”*

However, preparations were needed for faith wars.

Uller couldn't send a large army quickly, so Eve now had obtained a precious development period.

She could use this time to develop her forces properly.

After all… given the players' current strength, without Eve herself stepping in, they surely couldn't win the faith war.

Although they could resurrect, they couldn't withstand strong enemies!

When the power gap was large enough, infinite resurrection became meaningless…

*”Occasionally stepping in was fine, more than a few times, and someone might start suspecting.”*

So… it was essential to enhance the players' strength and develop the forces of the Elf Forest.

“I can consider taking this time to plant some fields well!”
