Chapter 330

Nidhogg wields two divinities:

The Divinity of Despair and the Divinity of Black Dragons.

Among these two, the Divinity of Despair was Nidhoggs primary divinity, which gave him the potential to advance into intermediate divine power, while the Divinity of Black Dragons on the other hand, was merely a secondary divinity with a much weaker potential.

Ev had already extracted the Divinity of Despair and sealed it within her own Divine Kingdom.

Although this divinity in particular currently has no use for her, simply discarding or destroying it would be quite imprudent, and bestowing it to someone else carries far too much of a risk.

So, in the end, Ev simply opted to seal it away in case she might find use for it in the future.

As for the Divinity of Black Dragons, Ev eventually plans to bestow it upon Meryer and promote him to become one of her Godwardens.

Although the potential of the Divinity of Black Dragons can only elevate its wielder to a weaker divine power, it suits perfectly with Meryer, who came from the bloodline of black dragons.

Moreover, dragons who possessed specific dragon-type divinities have usually been hailed as Dragon Gods by other dragons since ancient times.

For instance, Reinhart, the Platinum Dragon King, wields the Silver Dragon divinity.

As such, Dragon Gods with dragon-type divinities often surpassed those dragons who have mastered other non dragon-type divinities.

Of course, Meryer is currently too inexperienced and weak to handle the power of the Black Dragon Divinity at the moment, so Ev plans to bide her time and wait for him to first strengthen himself before bestowing it upon him.

Furthermore, before bestowing the Divinity, Meryer must also undergo training to completely embody what she envisioned for him or at the very least come close to it.

In any case, slaughtering gods is still the best way to strengthen myself Not only can I quickly increase my divine power, but I can also acquire more divinities as well. Its a shame the Divinity of Despair wasnt suitable for me; otherwise, I could have just claimed it for myself.

Eve mused as she idly gazed at the materialized form of the divinity in her hand.

Slaughtering Gods and Arson for a golden belt

As this phrase rang through her mind, Ev conviction deepened, silently solidifying her resolve in her plans to eliminate other hostile gods.

A-Ahem

Why does it feel like Im slowly turning into a Great Evil God?

After this brief self-deprecating remark, Ev refocused her attention on the Scepter of Life.

With her promotion to a weaker divine power, she now have the opportunity once more search for the remaining fragments of the Scepter of Life.

With this in mind, Ev promptly summoned the incomplete divine artifact.

Whilst perched upon her throne in the Supreme Temple of her Divine Kingdom, Ev channeled her divine power into the Scepter of Life and began searching for the remaining fragments.

Moments later, Ev once more sensed the pull of the Scepters fragments in the distance, yet this time around, the feeling was even stronger and just like before, it still originated from the direction of northeast.

Not only that, but the location seems way closer than before

Ev swiftly perked up upon discovering this and quickly attempted to precisely locate its exact location.

However, just as she was about to establish contact with the fragments, her tracing spell was once again severed.

Failed yet again

At that moment, Ev perceived the intervention of the other party, blocking her attempts.

Also, the power she felt just nowits the same entity that thwarted her initial investigation previously. However, now she could perceive that this entity is significantly stronger than her initial estimation during her first attempt.

After sensing the power thats clearly more higher than Legendary-rank, Ev furrowed her brow slightly.

The entity possessing the remaining fragments is even more formidable than I imagined, and its continuously on the move, which is a bit troublesome

Nonetheless, her attempt is not entirely fruitless.

Although she failed to locate the other party, Ev had, in turn, still managed to established a certain connection between the parts of the Scepter of Life that she holds and those fragments from the northeast.

And should these fragments appear within a thousand kilometers of where she is, then without a doubt, Ev will immediately sense them right away.

Based on her rough estimates, Ev noticed that the entity holding the remaining fragments appeared to be traveling within the territory of the Holy Maniya Empire, which wasnt particularly far from the Elven Forest.

So theres still a good chance she may encounter this entity if she tried to find it hard enough.

Nevertheless, after realizing that the other partys strength far surpassed her initial estimates, Ev became more vigilant and wary about facing this enigmatic fragment holder.

For her current self, it would certainly be more ideal to complete the Scepter of Life, but if repairing this artifact proves to be impossible, then its current incomplete state will suffice enough for her

Forget it, its not a big deal Ill just try again when my strength is promoted to intermediate divine power. I refuse to believe that this entity can still block my attempts by then.

Whilst shaking her head, Ev reluctantly sets aside the issue regarding the Scepter of Life.

Shes not a coward by any means

However right now, she has far more important matters to attend to.

Mainly, its the issue regarding her True Body.

Several months ago, Ev had already cast a divine spell on the World Tree, concealing it from everyone except her own followers and the players, making it almost impossible for any external observers to perceive its true state.

However, as time passes and her subsequent actions attract more and more attention, it will only be a matter of time before someone suspects something is amiss about the true state of the World Tree.

Plus, even if they do not suspect it, many outside parties are already monitoring the status of the World Tree.

Currently, only ordinary beings are monitoring the Elven Forest, so these mortal beings wouldnt be able to see through her concealment spell.

However, if far more higher ranked mythical beings were to come

Mere illusion may not suffice anymore.

Although Ev has already established her Divine Kingdom and can manifest it through the divine spell, Celestial Domain near her True Body, thus making her nearly invincible, annihilating others using this method still poses considerable risk since it has a high chance of revealing her real status.

Unlike Uller, who doesnt really think much and has been easily duped by her and Hela due to his inherent lack of intellect, other beings might not be so easily fooled.

ThereforeEv is planning a new cover-up scheme!

In particular, this new scheme of hers involves using her power to distort the space around her True Body, sort of like forming a separate isolated space.

Then, she will conceal her True Body within this distorted space, while at the same time, also leaving behind a fake withered body, crafted using the Scepter of Life, at the original spot of the World Tree.

With help of the Scepter of Life, she can easily deceive others and made them think the fake one is real.

This is a scheme Ev has long considered for a long time, but she only gained the confidence to implement it after being promoted to a weaker divine power.

Mainly because distorting space as she intended consumes a really huge amount of divine power.

However, despite this drawback, this plan of hers is entirely worthwhile since by using this method, no other existence, even higher-ranked beings, can see through her trickery unless they are mythical beings or demigods specializing in spatial laws and come in person using their True Bodies.

Shes confident that mere incarnations wont see through her scheme at all.

Not only that, but Ev also plans to include the Chosen City within this distorted space, as it serves as both protection and concealment for the city.

Of course, she will not completely isolate it and plans to leave behind an entrance and exit thats closely monitored by her

In her estimates, Ev plans to implement all these changes during the next round of beta testing.

Indeed, Eve is already preparing for the next wave of beta testers, intending to attract more players this time around.

With the significant increase of mana all across Seiges recently, although the dimensional passageway has yet to be opened, theres no doubt within her mind that the entire realm is bound to descend further into chaos.

Based from Nidhoggs memories, Ev knew very well that Ancient beings have been awakening all over Seiges in the past six months, including many evil gods hiding in various places.

And with the further increase in mana all across the land, its inevitable that the awakening of these Ancient Ones will be further expedited, and once these old monsters fully awakened, they will surely challenge the firmly established authority of the Gods of Faith within the realm of Seiges.

This will definitely attract the attention of most of the gods, but Ev can also take this opportunity to personally get involved and fish in troubled waters.

For her, the impending chaosessentially means more opportunities.

Alas, for her to fully capitalize on these opportunities, she must first acquire more laborers and cannon fodder for herself

In her estimation, the current ten thousand players are no longer sufficient anymore, and to expand her influence even further she needs to recruit more pawns that are willing to do her bidding

This time, she plans to put on a new suitable disguise for herself, introduce her army of players out into the public, and officially debut with a legal pantheon-recognized identity!

EVES AMBITION

This is a modified chinese proverb and the original phrase is (Murder and Arson to get a gold belt.) but both conveys the same meaning which is that, in life, some individuals do all kinds of bad things, yet continue to enjoy glory and wealth.
