Chapter 337 Our Main Character Finally Showed Up

Unlike the Players who were caught off-guard, Xi Wei had identified the undead high elf at once.

Yes. It is another First Eight undead like the Red Dead Dragon and the Nightstalker before.

However, even as Xi Wei tried to retrace its trail, he realized that it was different from the other undead encountered before this.

It had actually awakened in the Tegrono Federation, which was quite far from former Tierra lands, and then run all the way here to Crookes-a territory of Valla even before they invaded Tierra.

Its behavior was different from the other undead as well. The Red Dead Dragon, the Nightstalker, and the True Ancestor had maintained some extent of self-awareness, with a latter even conducting a ritual to revive itself.

The undead high elf, however, wasn’t self-aware at all. Its movement was purely driven by strong obsession and survival instincts. “It actually sensed my eyes? Ancient high elves are so OP… no wonder you’re extinct!” Xi Wei wasn’t really peeking seriously, but the high elf still managed to sense the gaze of his Divine Eyes. It turned its head by 360 degrees which no living being could have done, and aimed its own hollow gaze straight back into Xi Wei’s Divine Eyes.

The movement was so sudden that Xi Wei jumped in shock, even though his mind was now different from a human’s.

Even so, that was all there was to it.

Although the high elf had sensed Xi Wei’s eyes and turned to look back, it didn’t react too much. But if it had been alive, it would most likely have casted some mysterious concussion to temporarily stop him from peeking. Therfore, aside from undead orks which had been wiped out by the Players without making much of an appearance, the high elf was the worst of the undead thus far.

“That said, its obsession had driven it back here to activate the ruins… looks like my Divine Eyes aren’t going to see through it this time around. As expected of the backup the high elves left before their demise.”

Xi Wei stroked his chin with a tentacle.

The Mystery which the high elves exercised was certainly a miraculous force, with their creations still maintaining the power they were imbued with from the very start.

Since the source of Mystery was a divine power, almost all of their creations could be hidden from the G.o.ds’ prying eyes. If a G.o.d were to spy their creations, they would either have to put in more divine power to directly see through the divine powers shrouding it, or break unravel the source of the opposing divine power (by breaking down the Mystery system) to bypa.s.s its protection.

It was worth mentioning that the high elves’ contract with the G.o.ds in the past had been kept secret that no one knows which G.o.ds had come to an agreement with them. Moreover, Xi Wei was a newbie G.o.d whose divinity had no such records, just as there were no clues after he scrounged through the divinity fragments of the Aquatic Lord and the Rainforest Guardian-meaning that the second solution was not available for him.

‘The source and application of Mystery has to be stored in this ruin…’ Xi Wei thought.

While it was quite awkward to say it, it was quite obvious what was the last resort kept within the high elven ruins if one really thought about it.

“The true form of the contract, made between the high elves and the G.o.ds in the age of myths…”

If that proved to be the case, Xi Wei’s spying past their divine power and instruction of his Players to stick to their plan and steal the true contract would break the rules, and definitely catch the attention of those involved in the contract.

For his part, Xi Wei had just recently ascended as an intermediate G.o.d. But because his body had been drained dry by the Players and he was disadvantaged in a fight, he could transmigrate past the World Barrier as he liked, affording him a great chance of survival.

And if any other G.o.ds followed him down to the mortal realm-regardless of how they chose to transmigrate, their powers would be shredded. As long as it wasn’t powerful greater G.o.ds (such as the Ocean G.o.ddess or the Seven Divine Fathers), Xi Wei who would have preserved his full strength was confident enough to take them on!

After escaping down to the mortal realm and shorten the gap between his and the enemy’s abilities, he would then use his rich experience and usual provocations to defeat them. Even if he couldn’t win, he could still summon the Players to award them a beat down.

Such was the fighting style that Xi Wei thought up for himself.

That being said, his abilities were actually limited, and he wouldn’t want to be dragged into a G.o.dly conflict this early if he could avoid it.

Leaving other matters aside, if he had another two to three years to hone his believers and establish his foundation, it would basically be smooth sailing for him.

But from how the state of affairs were stirring at the moment, Xi Wei didn’t have much time.

“If the ruin is armed with some countermeasure against Divine Eye installed, it’s going to be a problem if I caught the attention of the Seven Divine Fathers by recklessly looking inside.” Xi Wei was rather worried. After all, any G.o.d who could groom such a logic-defying race like the high elves was definitely no weakling.

And have you seen the Players? They couldn’t even defeat a living corpse moving sheerly by instinct, and it was only too obvious how frightening the high elves could be at the height of their power. Nonetheless, Xi Wei was still very much interested.

“If it does preserve the contract between the mythical high elves and the G.o.ds, I might be able to strengthen myself by extracting the divine power which had been converted to Mystery.”

Meanwhile, the Players were working hard too. All of them had climbed up to various vital points of the tortoise, intent on attacking it from there or at least stop it from moving

If they could just open a crevice and enter, Xi Wei could use them as his eyes and peek into what was inside.

But it just wasn’t working.

The tortoise’s sh.e.l.l, and even the various seemingly vulnerable joints were frighteningly tough. Not even the Players’ strongest skills could cause enough damage.

“Should I give them a hint?” Xi Wei muttered, a little anxious now after seeing the Players doing their best but to no avail.

Just as he no longer could stop himself and was about to clue the Players in, his tentacles having already reached his the keyboard of his Pantheon Computer to click and clack away, he abruptly stopped.

The Players’ own reinforcements had arrived!
