Tony instinctively shook his head.
But Ye Ye said:
"Brother Tony, you also mentioned that it’s been ten years. What if... the Goddess has awakened?"
The Goddess has awakened?
Tony’s heart was stirred.
"Ye Ye, have you heard something in the game?"
"Not us, Brother Tony, do you know Cyber?"
"Cyber? The Tianchao player who saved the Frost Elves and holds a reverent position among the Elves?"
"Yes, he once heard from a few Elf Myths that the Goddess’s slumber seems to last ten years."
"Heard from the Elf Myths... Damn, that’s enviable rapport. I’ve only met Ling in all my Elf Myths, and she doesn’t really notice me. Last time I saw her, I must have said something wrong; she paid even less attention afterwards."
"Haha, everyone is the same; maybe... someone like Cyber is the real big shot."
"So, is everyone guessing that the one descending will be the Goddess?"
"Although the probability is low, it’s not impossible. Even the slightest possibility is enough to excite everyone."
"That’s true; as long as you’re a Chosen One of the Eve Goddess, we are all siblings from different fathers and mothers!"
"Hahaha, Brother Tony, you know this too?"
"Of course, you’ve seen how many years I’ve been mingling in the Tianchao player community."
Tony laughed.
After a conversation with Ye Ye and Nai Nai, he became even more excited about the upcoming celebration.
The three chatted while queuing.
The entry efficiency was quite high; soon it was their turn, and Tony handed over the invitation ticket to enter the venue.
The venue was large, accommodating five thousand people without issue. It was a multifunctional exhibition hall reportedly used not only for conventions and performances but also for international sports events.
Tony found his seat according to his number; it was a good spot, right in the front row and directly facing the stage.
He observed carefully, noticing that almost all invited players were seated in this area. Whether it was intentional or not, it seemed everyone was seated according to guilds.
However, when it came time to sit, many exchanged seats. In the "Elf Kingdom," players were divided into distinct groups based on guilds, but privately, there existed good friendships between different guilds.
Especially among these invited high-level players.
Coincidentally, Tony was seated with Ye Ye and Nai Nai.
Midway, Ye Ye and Nai Nai ran into a few friends, and Tony got acquainted with them too.
One was All-Star Acan, a famous player in the Tianchao’s seven major guilds, appearing as a somewhat weathered uncle in reality.
The other was Xia Mu, a top player of the Heart of Nature and a Druid player particularly loved by the Elemental Elves, who appeared as a gentle young man in reality.
After introductions and adding each other as friends, they settled into their seats.
As the time approached 9:30, the opening performance was about to begin according to the schedule.
Over the years, the lineup of the offline celebrations had gradually adopted an implicit pattern. Generally, it starts with words from player representatives, followed by song and dance related to the "Elf Kingdom," then theatrical performances, microfilm broadcasts, and interactive games.
Most players in the hall were now seated; hmmm... at least 90% of those who came should be players, but it doesn’t exclude the possibility of being relatives of certain players or derived fans or cloud players who are particularly fond of the "Elf Kingdom."
The convergence of five thousand people in the venue made a grand scene, especially because it was indoors, and the bustling sounds could not disperse, making it even more lively.
Until the gentle and pleasing music gradually began, the lights in the hall slowly dimmed, and the noise of the people quietly subsided...
In the next moment, the exhibition hall plunged into darkness. Soothing ethereal music played, and the familiar beautiful melody continuously flowed, with ancient hymns gently echoing in the hall:
"The sky is dawning, and the night is about to retreat"
"The dawn light slowly awakens the sleeping beings"
"The music gently plays, melodiously flowing"
"The flowers gradually bloom, releasing the natural fragrance"
"Sunrise and sunset"
"Every new day brings new hope"
"The tune is melodious"
"The minstrel is singing in Feilengcui’s morning"
"Merciful Mother Goddess"
"May your brilliance shine forever"
"I am your most devout child"
"Offering you undying glory"
"Merciful Mother Goddess"
"May your brilliance shine forever"
"I am your most devout child"
"Offering you undying glory..."
"..."
That was the most widespread and most beautiful music in the "Elf Kingdom"— "Morning of Feilengcui."
Upon hearing this beautiful melody, the audience in the hall spontaneously quieted down.
In an instant, the thousands of people in the hall became as silent as the night, with only the ethereal singing echoing continuously.
Suddenly, a faint light appeared on the dark stage, gathering dots of photons, dreamlike.
It was the glow projected by distant laser beams.
The photons gathered continuously, and gradually, a beautiful painting unfolded on the stage; it turned out to be the beautiful Elf Forest!
Shrouded in radiance, the illusory projection re-cast the unforgettable forest from the game into the hall in the form of light. At this moment, under the dazzling light, the players felt as if they had returned to the Elf Forest!
