▪️Destroy the Orc Stronghold
“Black Dragon’s Lair? Magic materials? Divine ssengers?”
Boxlunch’s gaze narrowed upon hearing these particular set of words from the people outside.
After so thought, he then decided to leave another reply in the guild chatroom:
“Guys maybe… it really is a hidden quest. I just heard my captors talking about so orcs’ secrets or sothing.”
Boxlunch then added the ssage he had just heard word for word.
After receiving the ssage, the other people in the chat imdiately exploded:
“Oh god! Summoning a divine ssenger? Is this considered a quest info?”
“Very likely! Yo Box, you’re amazing dude! Maybe you really triggered a hidden questline!”
“Hey soone report it to Saint Sister quick! Maybe sothing else can be triggered!”
Soon, several mbers stopped chatting and seed gone away to find Alice.
The remaining guild mbers continued to ask in the chatroom:
“Captain, do you need us to help you since you’re kidnapped now?”
Boxlunch opened the mini-map widget and pondered for a mont before replying:
“No need, my current location’s too far away.”
It was indeed too far.
He was now over a hundred kiloters away from the core area of the Elven Forest. Even with location tracking, players wouldn’t be able to catch up without a high-level tracker to guide them.
Not to ntion, the players are still busy preparing for the main questline.
“It’s safe here for now. I’ll handle it myself. You guys should focus on prepping for the main quest.”
Boxlunch then decided to closed the chatroom.
Seeing that Boxlunch isn’t responding any further, several teammates then gave up pestering him.
They were indeed more interested in the main questline. After all, the main mission was known for its generous rewards! Besides, it’s hard to say if Box’s info was really related to the main quest after all…
“Summoning divine ssengers?”
After receiving news from the chosen ones, Alice’s expression suddenly grew serious.
“Could it be…the Totem Guardian?”
After the World Tree fell, the elves were vigorously hunted down by various races, especially the Orcs. They had oftentis summoned Uller’s divine ssenger the ‘Totem Guardian’ to attack the elves’ settlents several tis. And after the Heavenly War, so of the remaining elite forces amongst the elves also sacrificed themselves to fight off against the Totem Guardian’s attack.
After thinking for a while, Alice said:
“This news is crucial, I think…it is likely a conspiracy by the Orc Tribe against the Great Mother Goddess. I will imdiately report this to the Goddess.”
“In addition, please contact ‘Mr. Boxlunch’ and ask him to endure for a while. He may have encountered a human smuggling caravan!”
“It is said that they have a stronghold near the Dark Mountains. This is also an opportunity to strike the human smuggling point, and we may be able to rescue so of our fellow clansn as well!”
The players’ nas are getting more and more outlandish, Alice also noted in an afterthought.
However, because Eve had long used the ga system to interfere when the players said their nas, they would automatically be translated into a transliteration that the natives could sowhat accept. Therefore, although it sotis sounded strange, it was not really a big deal.
Human smuggling caravan? Rescue fellow clansn?
Several players’ eyes lit up.
Perhaps…this is the hidden questline that Boxlunch encountered!
After instructing the chosen ones, Alice quickly ca to the Temple to pray.
“The Totem Guardian?”
Eve’s heart trembled slightly.
Guessing by the behavior of the vampire Godwarden, she quickly deduced Uller’s plan.
“Is it because he thinks that I’m weak and wants to get rid of while I’m still at my ‘infancy’ state?”
The reason was probably easy to guess.
After all, a true god was a true god. Unless it’s was really weak, how could a god hide and dodge? Of course, the real reason why Eve was hiding and dodging was not because she was weak, but because her true identity could not be exposed.
And after getting out of the quasi-death state, although her divine power was still lacking, it still was way better from what it used to be at the start.
Thinking of this, she issued a divine oracle to Alice:
“I already know about this matter.”
“I will now bestow upon the protector of the elves, Ael, the power to summon my own Godwarden to go with you in this campaign.”
After days of repair, Hela’s orb jewel has finally been fully restored by Eve, and she can now use powers at the demigod level through the use of an envoy as a dium.
However, since this is not an avatar directly condensed from 100 points of divine power like the chosen ones bodies, but rather made through by taking advantage of the Death God’s jewel, this demigod level envoy can only be used for a short ti.
In her approximation… it can only sustain itself for ten minutes at most.
After issuing the oracle to Alice, Eve then shifted her focus to the player nad Boxlunch.
In fact, Eve noticed it right away when the vampire threw the player inside his storage space. But what surprised her was that she didn’t know if this player was either lucky or unlucky, as it was then actually picked up by a human caravan later on the side of the road.
“As for the other captive indigenous elf in the caravan, it was also a pleasant surprise.”
Rescue aid is certainly a must, but not for now. Currently, the most important matter is to destroy the orc stronghold, which is related to the southeast exit of the Elven Forest.
Moreover… Eve is quite interested in Uller’s totem guardian.
As for the human caravan, Eve plan is to wait and see.
After observing the direction of the human caravan’s travel path, she had made a slight calculations in her mind.
“The direction of the Dark Mountain Range?”
After a mont of contemplation, Eve then used her divine power.
At the sa ti, Boxlunch received a new system ssage:
【❗】
【You have triggered a hidden Quest: Human Trade Caravan】
【Quest Description: The human smuggling caravan has been active all throughout the continent, secretly trafficking elves. You have decided to take advantage of this opportunity and investigate the human caravan’s base near the Elf Forest while in custody.】
【Mission Content: Stay in the human caravan, investigate the human base, and protect the other captured elvenkind.】
…..!!
Protect the captured elf?
Boxlunch remained silent for a mont, looking at the female elf sleeping soundly beside him, despite being tied up tightly, as if she were back in her own ho.
Boxlunch:…
Whatever.
He took a deep breath and began to ditate.
For now just like a soldier given a task, what’s his main priority for now is to be in top form in order to complete this quest.
Everything else can be decided later on after he recovered his strength.
Main mission: Destroy the Orc stronghold!
After thoroughly subduing the black dragon ryer and having it as a guide, Eve then issued a new mission.
This ti, almost all the players who had been promoted to the black iron level chose to participate.
Unlike the previous small bases, this ti however, they were really going to raid a beastn’s stronghold!
These past days, they were mostly either building small towns, doing chores for the Rageblaze clan’s elves, or grinding mobs for exp. Although it was still a lot of fun, players still liked these kind of large-scale multiplayer campaigns.
So Exciting! Spectacular! Lively!
More importantly, there was a real foreboding sense of war…
This had a different kind of attraction for players that’s way used to the stagnant peacefulness back on earth.
Even Alice and Ael would accompany them on this mission.
Even so of the elves from the Rageblaze clan were eager to go as well.
Especially those hot-blooded younglings who were less than two hundred years old.
Of course, they were still being stopped by the old guys, for a simple reason:
“Can you resurrect like the Chosen Ones?!”
However, even so, it did not dampen the enthusiasm of the native young folks.
The Chosen Ones are the apostles of the Mother Goddess, and the Chosen Ones’ beliefs are the Mother Goddess’s beliefs!
Even Ael, who has royal blood, has changed his own views, hasn’t he?!
Is our old belief in kindness and justice that we persistently insist on really was always right?
With this attitude, as they further interacted with the players, the indigenous elves of Saigües gradually changed instinctively as well.
After reuniting and leaning upon the new beliefs of the resurrected Mother Goddess, so natives finally realized that heedless kindness is not a good thing. Although such people are still the minority, it was still a great change for these stubborn indigenous elves.
Its always good to be morally upright but when facing an enemy that tramples down on one’s kindness as if it was nothing then only swords and blood is the answer!
“Treat kindness with respect and evil with death!”
