They were abnormal. They were absolutely abnormal!
Why were the elected like this?!
Alice felt her brain becoming increasingly more chaotic.
After a while, a pale green light appeared on the branch of the world. A human-shaped light slowly formed.
A moment later, a figure with red exploding hair whose whole body radiated holy light came out from it. It was Demasia, the unlucky man who had just been struck by Alice.
He gasped while saying in fear:
“Gosh… She scared me to death. This non-player character’s force is so considerable… Fortunately, I reduced my feeling of pain in advance…”
Resurrected… He had been resurrected?!
Looking at the familiar figure, Alice was a little dazed.
“Don’t be afraid, Alice. The elected are immortal.”
Suddenly, Eve’s words resounded through her mind. His words seemed to have the power of calming her.
“Mother God!”
On hearing the familiar voice, Alice felt at ease. But then her eyes turned red as she almost cried. Nobody knew whether it was because of excitement or grievance…
“Mother God… They… They…”
The girl was somewhat incoherent.
“Ahem… Don’t be afraid.”
Eve coughed dryly as He comforted her guiltily.
“They are residents in another world who are oppressed by life. Because they are under great mental pressure, they need to vent their feelings. Being the elected is their way of escaping from reality. However, although they escape, they are also very able…”
It was within Eve’s expectation that He would attract some rather neurotic players.
After Eve made His selection for the game, these 300 people were either senior players and determined ones, or game anchors.
Long game time or some “occupational diseases” had long enabled them to develop such a game character of indocility that the only thing they feared was their mischief not being troublesome and exciting enough. It was normal for them not to play according to the routine before they fully understood the mechanism of the game…
In the same way, however, their ability in the game was definitely not weak.
In summary, bigwigs were often funny.
Of course, there was no way to explain this to Alice…
After being silent for a moment, Eve said to the maiden, “You can consider them to be mentally ill.”
Alice was left speechless.
“However, you can rest assured that they are not bad in nature and they will be hard-working. You can freely order them to do anything… Besides, these 300 people are only the first batch. The subsequent chosen ones will be normal.”
Subsequent? Will there be subsequent ones?!
Alice was almost shocked.
Perceiving that the maiden had become upset, Eve hurried to add, “Don’t worry. They won’t always be like this.”
With these words, He used divine force again to pass a message to the maiden’s mind:
“This is a list of daily tasks that you can give them to do. These tasks can greatly divert their attention.”
Eve did not plan to do everything in person. Since there were indigenous believers, Eve would make the best use of them and let them become non-player characters for common tasks like that of some other games. Eve only needed to take control of the general direction and key game scenarios.
This was also Eve’s way of promoting communication between players and indigenous elves. In His vision, what He wanted to build was a new civilization that would unite players and indigenous elves with great cohesive forces!
His plan for Alice was to be a novice’s guide and non-player character for daily tasks. At the same time, she would also be a candidate to help the players who wanted to change their professions to be priests in the future.
As for Eve’s short-term goal, it was to let the players do tasks, so they could upgrade through hard work. In the meantime, He wanted to build His own camp!
And the new elf civilization would also be based on it!
After a flash of light, Alice found something more in her head.
A list of tasks?
Alice checked the content and murmured, “Repair the temple…”
“Collect wood…”
“Build houses…”
Alice was left speechless.
This… Wasn’t this just hard labor?
These things… Would the elected be willing to do these things?
This kind of miscellaneous work was given to low-ranking agents even when the elf race was still there… But they were the elected! In addition, they did not seem to be Mother God’s believers.
Furthermore, they were so undisciplined and wild…
With this being the case, would they really be obedient?
All these things required teamwork!
Alice was a little confused.
