Chapter 17 The unexpected power of faith

(Two chapters in one)

Southern part of the Essar Empire, Oak Town.

Catherine stood still, looking at the young man who suddenly appeared in the middle of the wheat field.

The golden sunshine, yellow wheat waves, ocher-red soil, and Catherine's fiery red hair and skirt outline a warm-toned picture.

But the young man seemed out of tune with it.

His pale complexion, cold eyes, and unworldly handsome appearance gave people an unreal feeling, as if he did not belong to this world at all.

The boys in Oak Town generally grew up crawling and rolling in the mud, and their bodies were covered in dirty mud and smelled of sweat. Perhaps because girls tend to mature earlier than boys, Catherine always

I think they are too childish.

But the person in front of her gave her a completely different sense.

It's like a character in a storybook has come to reality.

But Catherine quickly recovered from her trance.

As a girl who grew up in the fields, although she likes to daydream, she is rarely shy.

So, she raised her right hand and greeted the young man who fell from the sky happily: "Hi! My name is Catherine. How should I call you, Mr. who fell from the sky?"

…………

Allen also stood firmly on the spot, looking at the red-haired girl who suddenly appeared in front of him.

This girl is not old and not tall, only about 1.5 meters tall at most.

With her long fiery red hair, fiery red dress, and that passionate smile, she was like the scorching sun at the top of the sky, her whole person radiating warmth and light.

He obviously didn't expect that he would bump into the natives of this plane before his plan was implemented.

So...how should I respond?

Since I lack the power of faith right now, why not take advantage of this perfect opportunity to start preaching?

Just say that you were sent down from heaven by the gods to save all sentient beings?

He quickly rejected the idea.

Not to mention that it sounds too shameful.

Until he figures out the specific situation of this plane, he cannot reveal his true identity for the time being.

After all, the power of the goddess of light has surrounded this plane.

Although the mysterious strong man sent him in through the Rainbow Bridge, Allen didn't know if the goddess of light had other means to find his whereabouts in this plane.

However, he cannot just show weakness.

He must establish a strong and powerful image in front of the natives of this plane in order to effectively build a team and lay the foundation for the spread of faith in the future.

So he showed a polite smile and said to the girl: "Hello, Catherine. My name is Allen, a magician from afar."

Catherine was born in this remote town and had never heard of the word "magician", let alone what it actually was.

But in her opinion, since the "magician" can fly in the sky, he must be very, very powerful.

…………

On this day, the residents of Oak Town welcomed a unique new neighbor.

He was handsome and majestic, and although his clothes were stained with dust, he was different from everyone they had seen before.

He seemed to have a calm and majestic temperament. Even the always majestic mayor felt a little ashamed in front of him.

"Mr. Allen, do you need a hotel?" Catherine asked.

Allen shook his head slightly.

He found an open space on the outskirts of the town and waved gently.

A strong wind roared past.

The town blacksmith's hammers and nails disappeared.

The carpenter's saw is also missing.

They looked around, with panicked expressions. At the same time, they clasped their hands and silently chanted the name of the Sun God, thinking that this was the Sun God's punishment for themselves, hoping to get forgiveness from the God.

Under Allen's control, the saw flew into the nearby trees.

Accompanied by the sound of "squeaking", the saw hung in the air, cut down several thick trees, and sawed them into neat wooden boards.

Then, Allen gently raised his right hand, and the saw and wood flew to his side together, stacked neatly in front of him like stacks of logs.

"It's amazing!" Catherine watched all this intently, with a surprised expression on her face.

In a remote place like Oak Town, you can't even see a magician, let alone such a miraculous scene.

Allen didn't answer.

He continued to recite the incantation of "Mage's Hand" softly, and the wooden boards levitated one after another, floating in the air, and gradually turned into the prototype of a small wooden house.

Then, nails and hammers flew over and began to hammer on the wooden boards, splicing them together piece by piece.

Catherine was even more surprised and speechless.

She even wondered whether Allen was the legendary prince from heaven who came to the mortal world incognito with a group of invisible servants to experience all aspects of life.

When the wooden house was finally fully formed, Allen waved, and the saw and hammer flew back into his hands.

His fingers gently stroked the surfaces of the saw and hammer. With the flash of magic light, the mottled rust on the saw and hammer gradually disappeared, becoming clean and brand new.

"Catherine, please do me a favor," Allen lowered his head and said with a smile to Catherine beside him, "return these two things to the carpenter and blacksmith for me, and say 'thank you' to them by the way. I hope they

Can you forgive me for using their things without authorization?"

Catherine was still immersed in the miraculous scene for a long time. After a while, she finally came back to her senses and said a panicked "hmm" to Allen before taking the hammer and hammer from Allen's hand.

saw, and ran towards the small town.

When Catherine's back completely disappeared at the end of the road, Allen stopped smiling. Instead of rushing into the cabin he built by himself, he walked around to the back of the house.

At this time, the sun is shining brightly and everything is shining brightly.

Only Allen's face was completely shrouded in haze.

He picked up a branch with green leaves that had not yet faded and stuck it in the soil.

The sunlight falls on this branch, casting its shadow on the ground, like a dancing figure.

"Isabella." He sat cross-legged next to the branch, closed his eyes, and whispered the name of the dark saint.

Isabella died in the gap because of him, but he didn't even have the chance to collect her body. He could only let the turbulence of space erase the traces of her existence.

But after a few minutes, a happy smile appeared in his eyes.

"So you are still alive!"

Thinking of this, he stood up, pulled out the branch from the soil, and threw it aside.

In his conscious world, the point belonging to Isabella had always been dim before, but just for a moment, it lit up, like a bright star in the night sky.

However, the two are now far apart, one is in the south of the empire, and the other is in the northwest of the empire.

During the casting process just now, Allen noticed that there were certain differences between the magic rules of this plane and the Kingdom of Braden. Whether it was a magic spell or a magic circle, they needed to be slightly modified in order to run smoothly.

But this naturally does not trouble Allen.

He thought that after he improved the teleportation magic, he might as well go to Isabella to see how she was doing.

Now the Goddess of Light is watching covetously outside this plane. It would be safer for the believers of the Dark Temple to stay with her.

…………

Meanwhile, in Oak Town.

The blacksmith received the brand-new hammer, and the carpenter received the brand-new saw. Their eyes widened and they were extremely surprised.

"Is this really mine?" they asked in unison.

Catherine nodded seriously.

"It can be regarded as the reward Mr. Allen gives you." She said.

Like Catherine, the town's residents are unaware of the existence of magic.

In their view, all supernatural things are either gifts from gods or punishments from gods.

Mr. Allen, who possesses extraordinary power, must be the messenger sent to the world by the sun god.

"Praise the sun!" they sighed from the bottom of their hearts.

…………

Royal, the mayor of Oak Town, also heard about this incident.

But what he thought of was more than others.

Unlike these mostly illiterate and semi-literate townspeople, Mayor Royal has read many books before and has heard some rumors recently. He is considered one of the few people in the town who has seen the world.

He knew that the great Sun God once left a famous prophecy

When the world is about to be destroyed, a messenger of God will descend from the sky and use his wisdom and power to save all living beings from the sea of ​​fire.

Mayor Royal is a devout believer in the sun god. He is full of fear of the so-called doomsday and at the same time has no doubts about the arrival of the savior.

And on this day, when Mayor Royal stood by the window of his home and saw Catherine leading the strange young man to Oak Town, Mayor Royal felt a kind of love from the young man.

A unique momentum.

Although he was not clad in gold and silver, in the eyes of Mayor Royal, he seemed to be more noble than any of the princes and nobles he had ever seen on parade. His eyes were always calm and indifferent, bottomless.

It seems that it can transcend time and space, and nothing can cause the slightest ripples.

And when his eyes fell on him, Mayor Royal even had the urge to prostrate himself in front of that man. Even when he was standing under the statue of the Sun God, he had never had such an urge.

Strong feeling.

After that, Mayor Royal witnessed the entire process of Allen building a house for himself.

He felt the same as Catherine

Only the word "miracle" can explain this amazing scene.

"Will the young gentleman named Allen be the messenger sent by the Sun God to save the world?" Mayor Royal thought to himself.

But he is not sure about this speculation yet. After all, this is a very important and serious issue.

If he met an impostor, wouldn't Royal himself become a blasphemous sinner?

…………

at the same time.

Allen stayed quietly in his wooden house, thinking about his next plan.

In his conscious world, the light points belonging to believers are continuously transmitting the power of faith to him, allowing him to gradually recover the magic and spiritual power that he had just consumed.

He himself is now in the southern part of the Essar Empire.

Isabella is to the northwest.

As for the other believers, they are in the north near the capital of the Essar Empire.

But except for Isabella, the light spots of other people's beliefs were a little blurry in Allen's perception, as if they were interfered by some obstacles, making it impossible for Allen to accurately judge their location and status, let alone be like before.

Similarly, establish a direct soul connection with Delphi, the high priest of the Black Temple, or transmit information to them through the "Oracle Mirror".

"Is it the power of the goddess of light that interferes with my perception?" He thought secretly, "Or is the local god named 'Sun God' on this plane playing tricks on me?"

He didn't know the answer to the question.

The key to the question is whether this so-called "Sun God" really exists.

After all, he is currently in a plane with a power limit of level three. Under normal circumstances, there should be no real gods. At most, they can only be made up by people, just like when he was on earth.

However, at this moment, Allen felt the black crystal in his conscious world suddenly trembled strangely.

He clearly felt that a new power of faith came in like a tide, and then merged into the godhead.

The black crystal stone, which is the godhead, is like a hungry and thirsty person in a drought, madly devouring this power and then converting it into spiritual power.

Allen felt very unfamiliar with this new power of faith.

He didn't know where this power came from.

With curiosity, he stretched out the tentacles of his consciousness and tried to sense the source of this power of faith.

Then he heard a devout prayer:

"Praise the sun!"

Allen was stunned immediately and felt very surprised.

Those people were clearly praising the sun god, so why could the power of their faith be sent to me?

……………

At the same time, in the northwest of the Essar Empire, in Desert Rock City, there is a cell next to the arena.

In the past few hours, Isabella rested quietly against the wall, letting the power of the Divine Familiar recover bit by bit.

Although she still has some divine power in her body, it is not much. In addition, her internal injuries are not enough to allow her to disguise herself, nor is it enough for her to use the "Master Key" spell to open the cell and get out directly.

.

This made her feel a little anxious.

However, for some reason, when she came to this new plane named after the Messenger, her divine power recovered slightly faster than in the previous few days.

"Could it be that my lord has regained some of his strength?"

She estimated that by night, her divine power would be restored to the point where she could barely disguise herself.

At that time, when the warden comes to check the cell, it will be the time to escape.

Thinking of this, she turned around with a smile and said to the three strong men:

"Are you interested in joining me? To rob the warden's stolen money and share it equally between the four of us?"

…………
