The old man stopped in front of the stone gate.
He put his hand on a protrusion of the stone gate and pressed it down gently.
I saw that Shimen suddenly radiated a deep brilliance, and the brilliance extended to the old man's body along the hand.
As if doing identity verification, Duo Guang lingered around the old man's body, then slowly retracted, and then, accompanied by a creaking sound, the stone door slowly opened...
Several players widened their eyes and looked curiously into Shimen.
And Eve also raised twelve points of vigilance.
The field of vision gradually broadened, and everyone finally saw the scene inside Shimen clearly.
It was a vast hall with quaint stone pillars erected around it, and on the stone pillars were depicted ferocious and terrifying dragons.
To Eve's regret but fortunately, in the hall, she did not feel Nidhogg's breath.
Of course, this also means that the other party has already recovered.
And this so-called "living place" has actually already completed its mission.
However, although he didn't sense Nidhogg's breath, the moment the hall opened, Eve suddenly felt a familiar throbbing.
She suddenly raised her head and looked in a certain direction in the hall...
I saw that in the deepest part of the hall, a gray-black pyramid stood tall.
On the top of the pyramid, there is a half-moon-shaped light group floating.
The light group was dark green and flickered constantly, and it was faintly visible that something seemed to be spinning in it.
The moment she saw the light group, Eve felt that her sense of familiarity and throbbing became stronger and stronger.
"This is... the breath of a true artifact! And... it can make me feel a sense of familiarity and intimacy from the bottom of my heart. This is an artifact that belonged to the previous World Tree!"
For a while, Eve's eyes widened and she was excited.
"However... this breath is a little strange, it feels a little scattered and a little unstable."
Looking at the flickering light group and noticing the half-moon shape, Eve quickly calmed down.
"Could it be... a broken life scepter?"
The believers of the Church of Despair established by Nidhogg, the Dragon of Despair, will use healing magic that is even more powerful than the Church of the True God.
And they can do this, it only means one situation.
That is, Nidhogg has stolen the law of life in some way, and has a certain ability to control the law of life.
At that time, Eve guessed in his heart, either... that Nidhogg obtained a certain source of the World Tree by devouring the roots of the World Tree, and thus comprehended some of the laws of life.
Either... that he directly or indirectly mastered a true artifact belonging to the world tree's life domain.
And when Eve saw this half-moon-shaped light group, the answer was ready to come out...
"It is indeed the Life Scepter! Nidhogg uses the Life Scepter to enable believers to have the ability to perform healing magic. However... this is not a complete Life Scepter, but a fragment of the Life Scepter!"
Eve came to a conclusion in her heart.
Then, there are boundless surprises.
Scepter of life! I didn't expect the scepter of life to be here!
Although... it seems to be just a few fragments, but if she can get it, it will be enough to take her control over the law of life to a higher level!
but…
Eve's eyes moved down slightly, and her eyes gradually narrowed.
Below the pyramid, there are rows of translucent gray-black giant cocoons surrounded by rows and rows, and in each cocoon, you can see a tall figure with eyes closed...
"I'm going, isn't this an elves?!"
"A lot of elves! It's at least a few hundred, right?"
In Xiao Xianmiao's live broadcast room, the players' barrage floated up.
And the expressions of several players who came here with Eve gradually became serious.
"Here... why are there so many elves?"
Xiao Xianmiao typed suspiciously.
Cuckoo bird's eyes narrowed:
"Look at the base of the pyramid!"
Seeing her words, several players quickly looked at the lower end of the pyramid, and then saw that each giant cocoon had a slender conduit connected to the pyramid.
If you look closely, you will see a faint dark green energy going down the conduit, entering the pyramid, and finally gathering into the half-moon-shaped light group at the top...
"What it is?"
Several players were very curious.
And Eve, when she saw the elves below, instantly understood what Nidhogg was doing...
"It turns out that... He is relying on the blood power in those elves to repair the life scepter!"
The scepter of life is one of the three true artifacts of the predecessor World Tree, and it is also the scepter that controls the law of life.
Perhaps the life scepter does not have a strong attack power, but it has a terrifying healing ability, as well as the ability to transform and evolve life.
For any race, this is an artifact that can change the fate of the race.
It is precisely because of this that in the thousand-year war of gods, the gods will smash the scepter of life because of competition...
But I didn't expect that the true god who had been collecting the fragments of the scepter of life turned out to be the revived Nidhogg!
Hmm... Although this guy seems to have completely degenerated into an evil god.
And since the Scepter of Life was created by the predecessor World Tree with a piece of his own essence that condensed the origin law, so... If you want to repair it, you must also use the bloodline power of the World Tree.
"You guys, come here."
And just when several people were staring at the pyramid and thinking about it, the old man spoke again.
He has come to the bottom of the pyramid.
"You have become true believers in despair, and as the family of our Lord, every believer should come here to pray sincerely."
said the old man.
After speaking, he turned around and took the lead in bowing slightly to the half-moon-shaped light group on the pyramid, and praised enthusiastically:
"Praise my lord, the great god of despair!"
And other believers did the same with him:
"Praise my lord, the great god of despair!"
Seeing this scene, Eve's heart moved.
By now, she also knew why the old man brought them here.
Repairing the scepter of life requires not only the bloodline power of the World Tree, but also the divine power of life.
But Nidhogg doesn't have the divine power of life, so... he replaced it with the power of faith, which is easier to be accepted by the divine weapon compared to his own divine power, and asked believers to keep praying to the scepter of life!
This is both Nidhogg's way of repairing the Life Scepter and his way of leaving his mark on the Life Scepter!
Seeing the actions of the old man, several players looked at each other and pretended to pray to the pyramid.
Of course, their prayers didn't work.
And Eve's heart gradually had a bold idea...
