Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 1238 - 804: Back to Square One

Tripped...

Tripped again...

Only to see his expression change several times, seemingly quite struggling, ultimately... gradually turned into a fawning smile:

"Lord... Lord God, it’s a misunderstanding... all just a misunderstanding..."

That smile is worse than crying.

Looking at the Seventh Demon God who instantly softened, Eve smiled faintly:

"Planning to get revenge sooner or later?"

"No... no... I... I’m just joking with you!"

Azazel said mournfully.

"Thirty years east? Thirty years west?"

Eve’s face bore a playful smile, her tone teasing.

"That’s all player dialogue! I... I was just saying it for fun... I... I..."

Azazel stammered.

"Old hag?"

Eve tilted her head, seeming rather innocent.

"I am the old hag... I am the old hag..."

Azazel quickly said.

"Tomorrow’s today is the anniversary of my death?"

Eve’s smile gradually brightened.

"My death anniversary! It’s my death anniversary! Oh no... ptooey ptooey ptooey... no anniversary! You heard wrong, I was performing an opera!"

Azazel was about to cry.

Looking at a certain Abyss Demon God who would kneel to him instantly if not for the imprisonment of power, Eve sighed.

"Create a Gate of Hell, leading to Silent Annihilation Wilderness, coordinates at Elf Fortress."

He lost interest in teasing the other and said calmly.

Elf Fortress is the name of the base players built after entering Silent Annihilation Wilderness. Eve had long planned to establish a Gate of Hell leading there after seizing control of the first layer of Hell, for players to come and go.

"Alright... alright..."

Azazel quickly agreed.

Only after saying this, he looked at Eve with innocent big eyes, his voice aggrieved:

"Lord God..."

"Hmm?"

Eve glanced at him.

"You... you first release my imprisonment..."

Azazel said cautiously.

Eve nodded and lifted his movement restriction. Regaining control of his body, Azazel felt greatly relieved.

He moved his body slightly, his eyes flickering.

However, when he raised his head again and met Eve’s faintly smiling gaze, he shivered quickly, lowered his head, and obediently chanted Demon language, opening a huge Gate of Hell.

"Lord God, the Gate of Hell is open."

Azazel replied tremblingly.

Eve turned to take a glance, nodding lightly.

He planned to use the first layer of Hell as a place for players to level up and hunt monsters, so establishing a portal to Silent Annihilation Wilderness is quite necessary.

Then, Eve’s divine power surged, the Reversal Gate gleamed, teleporting from the ground to Azazel’s front.

"Leave the Hell core, take your body in."

Eve said.

Azazel stiffened slightly.

Through the Reversal Gate, looking at the faintly visible Demon Maze on the other side, his face instantly turned bitter.

He, dignified Seventh Demon God... has to return to that place again.

But, when Azazel looked carefully, seeing that it wasn’t the Maze Master’s palace but that terrifying Demon God Palace where he left countless horrifying memories, his face went directly green with fear.

"Lord... Lord God! This is the Demon God Palace!"

He shivered, fearful like a mouse seeing a cat.

"Hmm?"

Eve cast her gaze over.

Facing her calm yet seemingly stern gaze, Azazel swallowed back the words in his mouth.

Alright...

The good days are over, time to start working again...

With a mournful face, he obediently stripped the Hell’s core and handed it over to Eve, then jumped into the gate without hope.

Eve took the Hell’s core, closed the Gate of Reversal, and gently pointed at the ground.

Golden light blossomed at her fingertips, and countless divine photons sprinkled onto the ground.

Under the players’ shocked gaze, the ground shook violently, and buildings rose up rapidly, soon forming a towering fortress.

A glowing halo enveloped the fortress, creating a protective film around it that isolated the pervasive power of the Abyss.

"From today, the first layer of Hell will be one of the places for your trial and growth. Protecting this fortress will also be one of the duties of the Chosen Ones."

Eve said to the players below.

Most high-tier demons of the first layer of Hell had been cleared during the war between gods and demons, making it an ideal place for the players to venture and grow.

Of course, this was still Hell, and staying too long would definitely result in contamination, but as long as the players killed enough demons, the power spent to purify the Abyss energy in their bodies would be no big deal.

After Eve finished speaking, golden light blossomed on the players and the giant dragons, and everyone regained their freedom.

Led by Mairrel, several mythical giant dragons first bowed to Eve, respectfully praising:

"Praise nature, praise life, praise the great Eve Goddess!"

And following that, the players imitated them:

"Praise nature, praise life, praise the great Eve Goddess!"

The sound wasn’t quite in unison, but it echoed far and wide across the vast plane of Hell.

Eve smiled slightly, her holy figure gradually dissolving into a light...

Until her figure completely disappeared, only then did the players look up.

They looked at each other, their expressions excited and peculiar.

After a few moments of silence, discussions arose among the crowd:

"So... the Goddess has such a dark personality?"

"Hey, I like this personality..."

"Old A also surprised me... I didn’t expect him to be this kind of Old A..."

"But still, the Goddess is impressive! The higher the magic, the higher the way!"

"Nonsense, that’s our Goddess after all, how could she not be impressive?"

The Goddess high above always had a sense of sacredness and inviolability for the players, feeling ethereal and distant. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

But today’s scene made many inexplicably feel that the most popular NPC had gained a touch of earthly essence.

Sometimes, being overly mysterious isn’t necessarily good; today’s scene made many feel an inexplicable closeness and curiosity towards the Goddess.

And just as the players were getting excited, the Gate of Hell suddenly lit up.

Soon after, one tall silhouette after another jumped out.

These were the players who had been waiting for a long time at the Silent Desolation Elf Fortress.

Eve did not anticipate that after Old A’s betrayal and show of strength, other Demon Gods and the divine armies would retreat so quickly.

Therefore, she was originally prepared for a battle with the Demon Army, having already gathered other players, waiting for a new call in the Silent Desolation.

Of course, the original plan was to teleport through the Gate of Reversal, but now it was replaced by the Gate of Hell.

And although due to Old A’s actions, the players did not have to fight, they had already gathered near the Elf Fortress, and at the sight of the Gate of Hell being established, they came running.

Including quite a few prominent players who hurried over.

They excitedly examined the world before them, full of cheers and laughter.

"Hahaha! Is this the legendary first layer of Hell? I heard that because of Old A’s divine role, there are especially many succubus ladies on the first layer of Hell, wonder if I can snag a few... Hehehehehe... Anyone interested in joining me?"

Jumping out of the Gate of Hell, Demacia excitedly rubbed his hands together, his expression somewhat lecherous.

However, when he saw the war-torn landscape and the excited, peculiar expressions of the other players, he hesitated slightly:

"Eh? What happened here?"

"Did I miss some interesting plot?"

...

On the other side, thrown back into the Demon Maze, Azazel sat lifelessly on his throne, watching the slowly opening door, and with it, the silver-level players appearing before him...

"A bunch of lowly ants! Dare to step into my territory!"

The familiar lines echoed slowly in the palace.

Back to square one.
