The speech of Saintess Alice lasted about twenty minutes.

The entire venue was engulfed in silence, exceptionally solemn.

Only Alice’s gentle and melodious voice continued to echo...

Until the screen’s display reached its conclusion, and the deeply moved Holy Daughter closed the speech in her hands.

The vast venue once again fell into silence.

Saintess Alice lifted her head and turned around.

Facing the statue of the Goddess before the temple, her face showed fervor as she devoutly knelt down.

Following her, the elf believers on site also knelt down one after another.

The actions of the elf believers were like a signal.

After they knelt, some of the Chosen Ones also began to kneel.

Gradually, more and more people knelt, and shortly after, all the elves in the venue knelt towards the direction of the Goddess statue.

Even Little Xian Miao from the VIP seats left their seat and knelt on one knee.

In an instant, the venue at Feilengcui displayed an exceedingly spectacular and solemn scene, with elves from all directions turning towards the Goddess statue and reverently worshipping.

This time, there was no system constraint.

This was a spontaneous action by the players.

Of course, whether there were intentions to curry favor with the Goddess or to increase reputation with the elf NPCs, that was another matter.

But regardless, at this moment in Feilengcui, appeared the grandest scene of worshipping the Goddess since the opening of "Elf Kingdom"...

The guests were also affected.

Though they did not kneel, they all lowered their heads in the direction of the Goddess statue, showing respect.

At this time, the passionate and excited voice of Life Saintess Alice once again spread across the entire venue through the Sound Amplification Array:

"The journey ahead is long, our future extends far and wide..."

"Thank you, great Life Goddess, guardian of nature, protector of elves—Eve."

"May you always protect us, may you always guide us..."

"Great Eve, your oracle... is our direction forward!"

Her voice resonated throughout the venue.

And then, the prayers of the elf believers and elemental elves also arose:

"Great Eve, your oracle... is our direction forward!"

Their voices were loud and excited.

Spread far and wide under the influence of the Sound Amplification Array...

The Chosen Ones were also affected, many of them voluntarily joined the ranks of the praying.

Tens of thousands of elves prayed together, the resounding voice rolled like a tsunami, even causing the ground to tremble slightly:

"Great Eve, your oracle... is our direction forward!"

This hot and devout scene left the guests profoundly moved.

And just when the elves were fervently praying, the statue in front of the Life Temple suddenly blossomed with brilliant light.

Mystical hymns echoed from afar, and countless golden photons appeared on the horizon.

They were more dazzling, purer, and more sacred than the magic released during the performances of the elemental elves.

The photons fluttered continuously, spreading over the venue, covering the sky and the earth.

The entire Feilengcui transformed into a sea of light.

Simultaneously, plants in the city, withering after late autumn, once again rejuvenated, sprouting and leafing, blossoming and bearing fruit.

In an instant, the colorful Feilengcui of autumn became a sea of green, as if it had returned to the vibrant spring and summer...

All the trees, shrubs, and bushes seemed to possess awareness, bowing in worship towards the direction of the temple.

"A divine miracle! This is... a divine miracle!"

Tonglu murmured.

Although he was not a believer in the Life Goddess, he was inevitably moved by the environment at this moment, his expression showing traces of excitement.

Especially when those photons entered the body...

As countless photons fluttering in the sky suddenly accelerated, flying towards the nearest target.

Each elemental elf, each elf believer, each Elf Chosen One was enveloped in light.

Even the guests in the VIP seats were no exception.

Raising his hand to look at the faint glow radiating from his body, Tonglu felt a warm force entering his body, nourishing his flesh and bones.

At that moment, Tonglu felt the life force within him bubbling, his physical state rapidly changing...

The life force of a Legendary Warrior was already very vigorous.

However, at this moment, Tonglu felt that his thriving life force had faintly progressed a step further.

Life force signifies the body’s various resistances and recovery abilities, while also affecting one’s lifespan.

As a Legendary Expert who could vaguely sense the remaining lifespan, Tonglu joyfully realized that his lifespan was slowly increasing...

At least, extended by five years.

The light lasted for several seconds before slowly fading away.

And after the light faded, Tonglu felt as if he had been reborn, his whole body filled with power.

Although his rank did not increase, he felt as if he had become younger by a decade.

Perceiving his condition, Tonglu showed a look of surprise.

His black beard was even slightly trembling.

"A blessing! This is the blessing of the Life Goddess!"

He exclaimed excitedly.

Tonglu was not the only one who lost his composure.

The leader of the Dark Alliance delegation, Huo Xu, along with other attendant guests, were also visibly excited.

Everyone noticed changes in their bodies.

Even if they did not realize their lifespan had increased, they discovered that all their long-standing ailments vanished, and their physical state almost returned to their youthful peak.

However, the most thrilled were the Elf Chosen Ones at the venue.

Joy graced their faces, each looking side to side, eager to move.

Life Saintess Alice raised her head, looking joyfully at the statue of the Goddess, then quickly bowed her head again, fervently and devoutly praising:

"Praise nature, praise life, praise the great Eve Goddess!"

"Your Divine Crown, thank you for your blessing!"

Following Alice, the excited voices of the Elf Chosen Ones also scattered and finally merged into a collective shout:

"Praise nature, praise life, praise the great Eve Goddess! Your Divine Crown, thank you for your blessing!"

The voices rang out, clear and resonant.

It seemed that listening to the prayers of the believers, in the next instant, everyone present perceived a divine and majestic thought sweeping across the venue.

Then, a clear and melodious voice echoed in everyone’s heart:

"Celebrate the harvest, my clansmen."

The voice was gentle, intimate, yet also carried a sacred majesty that made people yearn to worship, leaving no room for blasphemous thoughts.

This was the voice of the Life Goddess Eve.

She personally descended with an oracle, announcing the start of the Harvest Festival.

At that moment, the elf believers were moved to tears, each bowing again in worship.

Especially the elders, many of them cried aloud.

Those were tears of joy, tears of excitement.

How many years had it been, and the Elf Clan finally awaited such a day.

The light faded, the holy song vanished, and the venue suddenly boiled with excitement, plunging into bustling activity once more.

The Elf Chosen Ones chattered excitedly.

Even Tonglu in the VIP seats clearly heard their enthusiastic voices:

"Hahaha, finally got the BUFF!"

"Praise the Goddess!"

"Whoa! Two weeks of double experience and double contribution, plus doubled recovery speed and store discounts, this buff is amazing!"

"Goodness! Absolutely amazing!"

"Long live the Goddess!"

Tonglu: ...

What kind of nonsense is this?

His expression was somewhat dazed.

At this moment, the voice of Life Saintess Alice resounded again:

"The Divine Crown has already granted the blessing!"

"I declare that the Harvest Festival celebration has officially begun. Let us parade, rejoice, and celebrate the harvest together!"

The Holy Daughter’s voice spread, echoing in the skies over Feilengcui.

Tonglu subconsciously glanced at the crowded venue, murmuring internally:

With so many people, can a parade even move?

Afraid it might be so crowded that they couldn’t move an inch, right?

He doubted whether even the elf side expected such a large gathering of their comrades!

However, Tonglu’s thought did not last long.

Because just after Alice announced the start of the celebration, the elves at the venue began to move.

No.

Using elves isn’t accurate enough, more precisely, it’s the Elf Chosen Ones.

Over 90% of the Elf Chosen Ones at the venue stood up, and without hesitation, scattered in all directions...

Densely packed, like locusts.

Some leaped away directly over rooftops, others mixed with the crowd as if in a rush to reincarnate... vanished in the blink of an eye.

Soon, more than half of the Elf Chosen Ones at the square were gone.

Tonglu: ...
