Chapter 385: Believer of the King of the Mountain
Originally, Jem found Christina just to extract information about the High Elf undead from the other party.
After all, that's important for the task they're working on right now.
But then the sudden announcement of the event made him have other ideas.
If you want to say that the believers of the King of the Mountain can defeat the player, Jem doesn't believe it.
After all, the first-line players are transcendent per capita, and playing ten is the same as playing, and there is a flying main city behind it, and eighty percent of the magic of those believers in the king of the mountains is related to the earth element, and it can't hit Tianya City at all, but Tianya City can carry out dimensionality reduction strikes from above.
It's a chicken neck!
However, Jem doesn't think that the player can easily defeat the army of believers of the Mountain King.
The reason is simple, there are too few players.
Even though the Church of the God of Games now has Lancaster City, Tunaya City, and Crooks Survivor Camp to absorb fresh blood, there are not many places that have a level of faith that meets the player's standard, and the total number of players is about 1,500 so far.
As for nameless towns and the like, they are completely the player's own land, but they have no effect on attracting fresh blood.
And among the 1,500 players, sixty percent are still newcomers with no combat effectiveness.
The player's strength is not achieved overnight, it requires the accumulation of experience points, and at present, the number of copies that Xiwei's subordinates can supply new players to repeat is just a few, and the Valley of the Dead is about to be explored by them to the core, and the experience points provided are limited, and it will take a while to form combat effectiveness.
On the other hand, on the side of the King of the Mountain, as a veteran god, he has a considerable number of followers, and if he really wants to organize it, he may be able to pull up an army of 50,000 to 80,000 people in one go, and it is possible to increase the reinforcements from all over the continent to more than 100,000 in the future, which is enough to cause huge trouble to understaffed players in the early stage of the event.
Thankfully, the original third-tier newcomers led by Simba have finally grown up and become the new mainstay of players through several major events in a row.
And Edward, the first-line players have broken through the level 50 mark one after another, and they have gone to the level cap of level 60, as long as they survive the most difficult early stage of the event, it is not a big problem to graduate from the event.
In Jem's opinion, the god of the game will notify players of the news of the arrival of the event in advance, and I am afraid that there is also the possibility of testing players.
The enemies encountered in those events in the past were not weak, but each event started directly, but this time it was different.
Does that mean that the god of the game has informed the content of the event in advance, and asked players to prepare for it, and even reduce the difficulty of the event in some way to improve the success rate of the event?
For exampleβ
Find a way to trick forces such as the Temple of Splendor into stopping the followers of the Mountain King who have gathered towards the Warla Empire (or Gaimu, the city of the End of the World)!
So after rescuing Christina and the others, Jem described his 'guess' in a vivid voice.
"Are you saying that these monsters that suddenly appeared may have been driven by the believers of the King of the Mountain?" Christina looked at Jem with some suspicion.
"Yes." Jem replied frankly.
"This is impossible, the king of the mountain is not an evil god, how can he condone his own believers to do such a thing!" Christina suddenly snorted and pointed the Chaos Instrument Staff in her hand at Jem: "Where the hell are you from the villain, what are your intentions to frame the believers of the Mountain King!" β
Seeing this, Tang Rui, who was drinking Coke, reflexively drew his sword to block in front of his best friend, and the Brilliant Temple cultists behind Christina also drew their weapons and eyed Tang Rui and Jem.
Jem thought he had really been punctured at first, but he recalled his words and deeds and found no loopholes.
"Have I been framed, don't you know if you go and check that the believers of the King of the Mountains will no longer gather in the Valla Empire?" So Jem tried to suppress his panic, and continued to say with the expression of the old god presence, "We are not villains, but preachers from Valla. β
"What church?" The girl's chin lifted slightly.
"Church of the God of Games."
Jem originally wanted to make a random church, but he thought that the other party might ask about the doctrine, and if he couldn't say it, the name of planting the blame would definitely be confirmed, so he simply replied honestly.
Only then did the girl put away the Chaos Instrument Staff: "It seems to be true, I was rude just now." β
It seems that she was just intimidating Jem to see if she could tell the truth.
Jem secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and while praising his composure, he was also a little curious about why the other party immediately changed his attitude after believing that he was a believer in the Church of the God of Games.
"I know Isaac, the head of the Wyvern Knights, and he has a lot of appreciation for you followers of the Church of the God of Games." Christina replied, "Tell me in detail, then, about the followers of the King of the Mountain." β
"I've already told you most of the information," Jem pondered for a moment, then said, "Many of the monsters around Valla, such as the Goblin Live Beasts, are themselves only seen in the mountains, but now they appear in this area inexplicably, and they are 'anomalous' in themselves, as if they were driven by artificial. At the same time, we happened to hear recently that the followers of the Mountain King had started to march towards this area, with that murderous look, and I don't think they came to preach anyway......"
When Jem said this, Christina was also a little hesitant.
Truth be told, although the King of the Mountains himself is a god on the front side of the order, his reputation is not very good, because most of his followers are 'mountain people'.
Mountain people are also human beings, and as the name suggests, they are people who have lived in the depths of the mountains since ancient times.
Most people in most countries think that the mountain people are uncivilized, as if they were natives or savages, and the mountain people also have stronger bodies and more slender arms, which at first glance resemble large monkeys.
The life of the mountain people is very simple, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains.
When most of the wild vegetables, wild fruits, and wild beasts in the mountains have been eaten, they will go down the mountain to plunder food and daily necessities, and occasionally rob women.
Because of the belief in the king of the mountains, the mountains are their best fortresses, not to mention the adventurers, and ordinary small armies are no match for the same number of mountain people in the mountains.
However, if they go too far, the mainstream churches in the plundered city will invite the Holy Church Army to go up the mountain to crusade against the mountain people.
Whenever the mountain people made a little contact with the other side and judged that they could not win the enemy, they would often surrender immediately and hand over some of the looted treasures to the Holy Cult Army, and then say that they believed in the king of the mountains, and that the eldest of our boss was one of the Seven Heavenly Fathers, the weavers of the leylines, and begged for the sake of the Heavenly Father's face to spare us a balabala or something.
Normally, at that time, the Holy Cult Army that crusaded against them would sell face and take a few heads away as an explanation to the people and lords of the city.
The Holy Cult Army had face and a certain amount of money, and the mountain people had access to food and other living resources, and it was a win-win situation for each to take what they needed.
Over time, this behavior became a similar practice and was staged almost every year.
But when the mountain people choose their targets, they are often very careful not to touch the city covered by the Temple of Splendour, after all, the believers of the god of war have a fighting fever, in case they are killed before they have time to surrender, who should they talk to?
And the high-level of the Brilliant Temple, after knowing that the Holy Sect Army was crusading against Xiao Jiujiu among the mountain people, had been waiting for the mountain people to come and plunder, and everyone made a sum of money by adding two to one, but they couldn't wait, and they suddenly became angry-let you come and grab it! I feel that you monkeys dare to look down on the city we are sheltering!
As a result, the mountain people even brought their faith in the king of the mountains had a bad reputation in the temple of glory.
Christina, a staff bearer is not a high-level person, so she doesn't know the reason, but after hearing and seeing it all the year round, she naturally doesn't like the believers of the King of the Mountain, and she is so pampered by Jem, she really believes that the believers of the King of the Mountain drive away the monsters......
