Chen Feng's mind has been very confused during this period.
Not only was his brain constantly receiving beliefs from order, but more importantly, after forcibly accepting the mermaids, eagle slaves, and dog slaves, Chen Feng could feel a will interfering with him at any time.
Chen Feng had never felt such willpower raging in his mind. Ever since he was promoted to epic, this situation began to change suddenly. It was not that there was something wrong with his faith, but rather a very strange feeling.
Just like the human eye can distinguish a limited number of colors, while pigeons can distinguish millions of colors, in the human eye, what we see are just ordinary colors, but in the eyes of pigeons, they change into other appearances. It can only be said that it is the difference in rank that puts Chen Feng's strength in a wonderful state.
When he was at the legendary level, and even at the half-step epic level, Chen Feng's feeling for the power of faith was not strong, but after he was promoted to the epic level, his perception changed, just like a faucet that was previously clogged with scale, but after it was unblocked, more water flowed out of it.
Believers are praying.
Even though they were all chanting the same name, Chen Feng, due to language barriers, different races, and different wills, all kinds of voices mixed together, making people even feel an indescribable sense of nausea, as if there were millions of people whispering in your ears every day. This feeling for a long time could even drive people crazy.
Even though Chen Feng's current strength is not strong enough to listen to the chants of millions of people at the same time, after all, he is only at the epic level, not the mythical level, or the eternal realm that is infinitely close to the realm of gods. Now he is still very weak in front of the power of faith. If he accepts the chants of millions of people at the same time, he can hardly last even for a day and will become a madman or be seriously injured.
The power of faith was originally a game of the gods. It was like being drunk, something that only adults could touch. Compared with the gods, Chen Feng was just a child. This was how the world was. There would always be a group of curious babies, or bad boys, who were dedicated to touching adult games, and naturally they would have to take some risks.
Every time a prayer appeared, the will became stronger, and Chen Feng needed to consume more strength to fight it. In the end, Chen Feng almost completely lost his perception of the outside world. His spirit, his will, and his mind were fighting against the pervasive faith prayers and the crazy will that counterattacked with the prayers.
It's a struggle.
This is a struggle without any intuition. Once Chen Feng fails, he will become a real monster. That kind of monster has no specific face, but becomes different from ordinary people and difficult to describe.
Chen Feng didn't believe that he would lose.
In fact, his will was unlikely to lose. The biggest impact on him was that his current strength did not allow it. If he could give believers some response on a large scale, it would naturally consume the pressure brought by the chanting. Unfortunately, Chen Feng could only give believers some help on a small scale, almost individually, so the damage would be increased.
respite.
Heavy breathing.
Chen Feng's whole body was soaked with sweat, but his eyes gradually became clear.
The pain is fading.
After the extreme pain, a new realm seemed to be triggered, making him feel a wonderful and indescribable spiritual power.
If I were to use a metaphor to explain everything at this time.
It's like doing extreme and crazy physical training. During the training, you want to give up countless times because the pain is not just physical, but also mental. Even though the process is painful, you can gain countless benefits after getting familiar with it. As long as you persist, you will gain something.
The sea surface was ups and downs, but it had no effect on Chen Feng's physical problems. At this time, he was lying on the body of a golden peak sea monster, rushing towards order with all his strength.
Even though Chen Feng has now been promoted to a legend, his control over spatial abilities is not yet strong enough to break through dimensions. As for Saruman, the only one who masters the power of space, he is still asleep. Therefore, Chen Feng can only rely on primitive power to return to order from the ocean.
Lying on the back of the sea monster, Chen Feng felt a little dizzy. This was simply the impact of the power of faith on himself. He needed to vent. Of course, venting here did not mean finding some women or doing exciting things, but solving some problems for the believers.
Chen Feng closed his eyes.
In his consciousness, a huge throne appeared in front of him, and Chen Feng stepped forward and sat on it.
Feeling the scenes of chanting in his mind, Chen Feng had an idea and came up with the idea of making a preliminary division of them.
Those who simply praised the "God" and prayed sank to the bottom and disappeared faster, while those who confessed and prayed floated upwards, closer to Chen Feng's palm.
Following his spiritual intuition, he "clicked" one of the latter.
Suddenly, he saw a foggy canyon and heard a terrifying, sharp roar.
A warrior wearing insect armor is facing a huge, ugly insect. The insect is obviously stronger than the opponent. It is not an evenly matched match, but a one-sided toy. The insect regards the warrior as food, just like a cat playing with a mouse. When it gets tired of playing, it will eat the mouse.
The so-called evenly matched strength is more like
The warrior's right arm had been injured by the insects and he could no longer pick up his weapon. He fell to the ground, looking at the insects in front of him, and chanted Chen Feng's name in panic.
Chen Feng realized that this was an ongoing prayer, so he raised one of his fingers. Above his fingertips, halos of light bloomed one after another, illuminating the whole city and shining into the scene.
The soldier was gradually becoming desperate, but suddenly he felt the fear in his heart dissipate and his mood became much more stable. He looked around in shock, only to find gusts of wind all around him, dark clouds began to accumulate in the sky, and a storm seemed to be about to appear. Just as the soldier was still puzzled, a flash of lightning appeared above the insect and directly struck it to death on the spot.
The soldier quickly woke up from his dazed state and understood what had happened:
The "God's Residence" protected him, and the "Poseidon" displayed his majesty!
Plop, plop, plop!
He prostrated himself on the ground, spread his hands, put them to his lips, and recited the honorific name of the "Goddess" in a familiar voice:
"Thank you, praise you, the protector of order, the ruler of all people, the great Mr. Chen Feng!"
Calming his mind, Chen Feng spread his spirituality to another spot of light.
This time, the chanting took place in a world of ice and snow. It was already January, the height of winter, and it was freezing cold all around. This was a world of ice and snow, and under the icy current, every inch of land was frozen, making it hard to breathe.
In this vast sea of sand, two figures were struggling to move forward, leaving behind a series of firm and clear footprints.
Those are two children!
There was a boy and a girl. The boy looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, while the girl looked even younger, only about ten years old.
Their eye sockets were sunken, which was due to their thinness caused by hunger, and they looked extremely weak.
It is hard to imagine that there are such young children in such a harsh environment. They are tired and weak, but they do not stop at all and continue to look for something in the snow.
The two children stopped and dug in the snow with simple tools. They were digging for a kind of food called cold meat. It didn't taste very good, it was astringent and bitter, but it was one of the few foods in the snow that could fill the stomach.
"Brother, the food is getting less and less, will we starve to death?"
The ten-year-old girl was already exhausted. Her thin, pointed face was covered in dust and her eyelids were swollen with dark bags under her eyes. It was obvious that she had not slept well recently. Due to the cold weather, her face was red, which was simply severe frostbite. But she did not cry out in pain or complain about the hardship. She just trembled her thin shoulders and asked the ten-year-old boy softly.
"Xiaoxiao, don't talk nonsense. I can feel that we will find food soon. Let's hold on for a while. Your Excellency, please bless us!"
Although the young man was also haggard, his eyes were unusually bright and his tone was full of determination. He believed in you and believed what his mother said that everything depends on human effort.
I heard your honorable name not long ago. He used to live on fish and shrimp at the port, so he naturally came into contact with some ships. He vaguely remembered that it was a ship completely different from the one in the Silver City. There were also many terrifying and powerful people on the ship, but when they talked about your honorable name, they changed their arrogance and became extremely respectful.
It was Your Excellency who gave them everything they wanted, a stable life, great power, and even a warm family.
Li Jian didn't need much. He just wanted his sister to grow up safely. That was enough. He had been neglected in Silver City. Before the cold wave came, he could rely on fish and shrimps on the seashore for food. But after the cold wave came, the sea froze and he lost his source of food. Naturally, his sense of belonging to Silver City dropped to the lowest level.
The miserable life did not make Li Jian feel desperate. On the contrary, his obsession with protecting his sister made him full of fighting spirit. He believed in everything and believed that he could create miracles and turn the impossible into possible!
But one thing is that in this despair, fighting spirit alone is far from enough, he needs to find some spiritual sustenance. He suddenly thought of the gentleman named Chen Feng mentioned by the crew members. From then on, he has been chanting that name all the time, trying to get favor.
The little girl nodded, believing everything her brother said.
In this environment dominated by death and grayness, the reliance between the brother and sister is the only motivation that keeps each other alive.
Life is cruel.
It will take them a long time to carry out excavations like the one they are currently carrying out.
“Patta, patta…”
Suddenly, there was a sound of trampling not far away, accompanied by a slight rising snow mist, and it turned out to be two snow mice.
The doomsday changed the world. After two years of development, the animals completed their own mutation and evolution. These snow mice were just low-level beasts, whose strength could not even reach the bronze level, but they were incredibly fast and their two front teeth were extremely hard. Compared with them, Li Jian was no match at all.
It was freezing cold, and it wasn't just humans who were pitiful. Wild animals were also looking for food everywhere.
"Brother, run!"
The little girl looked at Li Jian and said tremblingly.
"No, we can't run away. This is snowy. We can't escape from their pursuit. Keep your head down. They won't stay here for long. As long as they leave, we will be safe."
Years of wandering have taught Li Jian to stay calm. At this moment, a calm light flashed in his eyes. He slowly lowered his head, hoping that the snow mouse would leave as soon as possible.
During the years of wandering, Li Jian and his sister encountered countless crises. Every time, they got through it safely. Now, Li Jian is also full of confidence.
But God did not favor them this time.
The field of vision in the snow is very wide. From the very beginning, the snow mice discovered the figures of Li Jian and the other person. At this moment, a ferocious look appeared in their eyes. They screamed and ran towards Li Jian from the left and right.
"Brother, he found us!"
Looking at the snow mouse rushing towards her, the little girl was terrified. She felt as if a piece of ice was placed on her chest, so cold that her whole body trembled unconsciously.
“Damn it!”
Li Jian did not turn his head, but stared at the two mice in front of him. He tightened the wooden stick in his hand. The stick was rough and strong, and stained with blood. It was because of his long-term search for food that his hands had blisters, and the blood flowed out when the blisters broke due to friction. In the cold day, the blood soaked the wooden stick, revealing a black and purple color.
The wooden stick is his weapon.
The snowy terrain was treacherous, and even a brave warrior could not exert his full strength here, let alone the weak and exhausted Li Jian? If Li Jian was a short blade, then these two snow rats were horse-slashing swords that could cut through flesh and blood!
There is no comparison between the two sides!
"elder brother… "
The little girl's lips trembled and she pulled Li Jian's clothes hard. At this moment, she was like a sad baby bird and looked extremely terrified.
Li Jian did not say anything. He held the wooden stick in his hand and stared straight ahead. Due to excessive nervousness, there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. But even so, he still did not choose to run away. Instead, he faced the enemy head-on without taking a single step back.
They faced an unprecedented crisis.
"Hiss..."
The snow mice first observed their "prey" and then chirped, their voices full of excitement.
This land believes in the law of the jungle. Humans will catch snow mice to satisfy their hunger, and snow mice will naturally kill weak humans as food.
Even though the two sides were dozens of meters apart, the snow rat was extremely fast and was rushing forward at an extremely fast speed. The Hun cavalry was shouting and looked ferocious and terrifying.
Looking at the enemy rushing towards her, the little girl's heart trembled again. She was so scared that her face turned pale, and her desire to run away became stronger. She hurriedly grabbed Li Jian's sleeve, her eyes were red, and she looked pitiful.
Even the strong Li Jian couldn't help but tremble when he saw the snow mouse rushing towards him. His eyes were full of despair, and he couldn't help but think in his heart: "If there really is a God, please save us... Please... Please..."
