Chapter 236 Tina and the Jackal
Despair and helplessness almost overwhelmed Mrs. Shirgay. This woman who is stronger than a man and bears hardships and stand hardships, after the death of her husband, faced many difficulties and felt that she had no choice. Originally, she sometimes felt that her skinny husband was useless, but it was only at this time that she realized what the man who weighed less than two-thirds of her weight was shouldering.
At this time, Freya appeared...
Mrs. Shirgay and her two daughters prayed devoutly. In front of them was a tapestry depicting abstract symbols, which was given to Freya by Green and represented the symbols of divinity. As long as they prayed to this symbol, the The power of faith will converge on Green.
In fact, this symbol is a 'signal booster', which allows shallow believers and false believers to convey the power of faith to Green through this symbol.
The Shadow Chamber of Commerce was established. Since it is a Chamber of Commerce, it is in business, and Greene will not do business at a loss. Every believer developed by the Shadow Chamber of Commerce, no matter how strong his talent is, will not directly spend his psionic energy to give the other party extraordinary abilities. Of course, in the current situation, most of the geniuses have been excavated, joined various extraordinary organizations, or entered the Knights Academy, and there are very few who really slip through the net.
And the Shadow Chamber of Commerce is also developed by fools and wives at the bottom of the society. These people have been poor all their lives and suddenly acquired extraordinary abilities. God knows what they will do. So Green must make them pray every day and strengthen their beliefs before spending dozens of psionic energy to give them supernatural powers.
In this way, it is not only an exercise for their body, mind and will, but also their beliefs can be turned into psionic energy. When they have enough psychic energy, Green will give them the ability. After they gain the ability, they immediately go crazy and attack the special situation. , Green and the Shadow Chamber of Commerce will not lose money.
Moreover, the power of faith provided by shallow believers and false believers' prayers is very small, and the conversion into spiritual energy is even less. A shallow believer wants to gather enough spiritual energy and exchange it to obtain extraordinary powers. It takes at least three months, every day, praying for one hour. Hour. It can also eliminate a group of people who are out of character or have an unsteady will. Although these people are also talented, they often have their own opinions and ideas, and it is difficult to have a firm and single belief. For Green, they are optional. kind.
On the contrary, Mrs. Silgay's mother and daughter are the best quality customers of the Shadow Chamber of Commerce.
The bright sun shines on the messy and dirty shacks in the lower city. The people who live here are only slightly better than those homeless people. Even if they are poor and difficult, they still want to have a home, instead of giving up on themselves, like a ghost. wandering.
Mrs. Shirgai brought her two daughters and prayed devoutly in her heart. In less than a month, the three of them were already devout believers, and they were grateful to the gods who gave them divine grace when they were desperate. So every day, before eating the bread that is dark and hard, but can keep their mother and daughter alive, they will pray with the most devout attitude. But today seems to be a little different. Just as she was praying silently, Mrs. Shirgay paused first, and a faint white light overflowed from her body, followed by her eldest daughter, the second daughter a little later, about After waiting for five minutes, the three of them were covered by a faint white light.
Mrs. Shirgay had never felt this way before, her whole body seemed to be immersed in warm water, and a trace of indescribable power slowly penetrated into her body.
At this time, her body and mind were extremely calm, her mind was ethereal and transparent, her ears were quiet and peaceful, and her whole person was in a very comfortable state. But she knew in her heart that this was a gift from the gods and a reward for their faith.
Ten minutes later, Mrs. Shirgay opened her eyes, her eyes that had been cloudy due to the pressure of life became clear, her skin that had been roughened by years of labor became delicate and fair, and her fat and bloated body became thinner. , showing the lines of muscle knots on the arms.
Although Mrs. Shirgay's appearance is still ugly, the overall feeling is valiant, like an Amazon female warrior standing on the battlefield!
Mrs. Shirgai has lived for more than 30 years, and has been tortured by hard life like a walking corpse. Until this time, she was gifted by God, and the shackles tied to her body were removed and she was reborn.
The two daughters on both sides of her are a little slower, and their bodies are undergoing the same transformation as their mothers, but they have experienced less hardship and pain, and have not yet experienced the mother's feeling of being reborn, but the inner The power beyond ordinary people reminds them all the time. The gift of God came and gave them extraordinary power. They received such great care, became more pious in their hearts, and sublimated their faith again. They have changed from devout believers to mad believers. His face was full of nobility and holiness.
After ten minutes, the golden light disappeared, but Mrs. Shirgai and her daughter had already completed their transformation.
The three of them felt the psychic energy surging in their bodies, which was the foundation that the gods gave them to become strong. From the day they were born, they were destined to be the lowest-level existence in Fredenburg City. In the eyes of the aristocratic masters above, they were not human at all, but mules and horses that could talk, and their only use was to work. But now, everything is different. They are destined to take another path, and the tears of excitement in their eyes can't be restrained.
Meanwhile, Green watched it all from the cemetery.
At present, Mrs. Silgay and her daughter are the three most devout members of the hundreds of members of the Shadow Chamber of Commerce. Of course, Green is very careful.
After they prayed yesterday, Green knew that they would be able to accumulate enough psionic energy today, so he prepared in the cemetery early, using the soul link generated by faith to give them mother and daughter supernatural abilities.
The results were quite gratifying. After acquiring the abilities, the three of them became mad believers at the same time, but unfortunately the abilities acquired by the three were not very good, and even the pseudo-god Green couldn't control this.
However, Green never expected them to become a powerful combat force, and even the entire Shadow Merchant Guild was positioned as a fixed psionic provider in Green's mind.
The Shirgai mother and daughter are just the beginning. With the further development of the business of the Chamber of Commerce, thousands of unemployed workers and housewives will gain extraordinary abilities in the Shadow Chamber of Commerce, and all they have to pay is their devout faith and no less than an hour a day. prayer.
At the same time, in the Ceylon Valley in the misty world, it was 530 kilometers away from Green's cemetery in a straight line.
The surrounding area is filled with ash and fog, a barren and inaccessible area, the hot air is filled with a faint smell of sulfur, and a few hundred meters away is an active volcano with lava flowing all year round.
In such a place, Tina doesn't know how she survived for more than a month.
A steady stream of accidents and attacks from otherworldly monsters took the lives of her companions one by one, leaving her alone in the end.
The almost desperate Tina fainted in the desert. At that moment, she thought she was doomed this time, but she did not expect that when she opened her eyes again, she found that she was actually rescued by a gnoll tribe!
In Tina's cognition, gnolls are synonymous with ferocity and greed, they are just beasts that can walk upright, they can't be called human at all, they have no morality, no art, no society, no law...
However, after real contact and living together for a month, Tina found out that her original idea... was not wrong at all. These gnolls are cruel and ferocious beasts. The reason why they would save her was just to store food at first, She was not treated as a kind or intelligent life at all.
At that time, Tina was very desperate, and even felt that she was not as good as the other companions. She died early, at least a whole body was left, and other companions helped to bury it. But when she came to her, not only was she eaten by gnolls, but even the last remaining bones had to be thrown into the garbage heap, and it was impossible to be buried in the ground.
However, the turning point of the matter appeared here. Seeing that Tina was about to be sent to the food storage warehouse, an old gnoll with white hair on his face suddenly walked out of the largest tent in this gnoll tribe.
Although this old gnoll was hunched over, his stature was still higher than that of an ordinary gnoll. He held a wooden staff as tall as a person in his hand, and walked with the pestle on the ground, giving people a sense of majesty. of pressure.
When the old jackal saw Tina, his eyes suddenly changed slightly, and he stopped the **** and asked what was going on? Then they ordered the gnolls to release Tina and take her to them.
Tina didn't know what was going on at first, thinking that these vicious gnolls had some conspiracy, but unfortunately her magic power and physical strength were exhausted, she couldn't resist, she simply didn't speak, she wanted to kill or cut, listen to me Respect.
But in the next few days, when she lived in this gnoll camp, she gradually noticed something different.
Tina was trembling, and she was mentally prepared to be eaten by those ferocious gnolls as food. But after a few days, not only did she not get eaten, but she ate and drank every day and was supported.
This made Tina very strange, but unfortunately she couldn't speak the language, and she couldn't find out. She could only take the attitude of being at ease, and wandered in the gnoll tribe every day.
These gnolls didn't restrict her movements, they didn't even collect her weapons, they just weren't allowed to leave the tribe, and this restriction felt more like protection than imprisonment.
Tina endured the curiosity in her heart for more than ten days, and finally the old jackal reappeared on this day, and directly replaced language with spiritual communication.
Only then did Tina know that this old gnoll was named Sade, the shaman of the entire Jackdaw tribe, and the great chief of the tribe, who held the greatest right to sacrifice to the gods and rule the tribe.
