Fayne was a native of the Western Dominion.
He liked the clear, winding stream at the entrance of his village. He liked to sit on the slope at the entrance of the village in the evening after hunting with his father in the nearby forest and quietly watch the golden red sun slowly set in the west …
He had also listened to the stories of the Extraordinaries told by the bards, fantasizing that he would one day become a powerful adventurer.
Because of this, after his parents passed away, he decided to venture into the big city alone.
He came to the nearby city of Augus. Here, the youth from the countryside saw a prosperity he had never seen before.
In order to make a living, he worked as a groom, a waiter, and a porter …
The traces of time gradually smoothed out the edges of the youth, and the once innocent youth gradually became a mature and steady youth.
Although life was tough, although the days in Augus City were not pleasant, although the immense pressure and hardship always tortured those who struggled at the bottom …
But as a down-to-earth person who was willing to endure hardships, Fayne finally succeeded in saving three gold pounds.
He planned to escape this oppressive city in a few months, and use this huge sum of money to build a beautiful little house in the town near his village, and then find a cute girl to marry.
Right, he also wanted to raise a pot of beautiful morning glory, and then show it off to Uncle Hans in the village.
Fayne had thought of everything for the future.
However, it was a pity that the war broke out all of a sudden.
Before he could escape from Augus City, Augus City was conquered by the Maple Kingdom, and the healthy Fayne was captured by the kingdom's army to become a soldier guarding the city. Even the gold pounds he had saved were taken away.
His freedom was restricted, and he was forced to convert.
Although Fayne himself did not care about faith, but being asked to believe in a terrifying existence that was said to be an evil god still made him fearful …
Fayne once wanted to escape.
But when he saw the conscripted soldiers who wanted to escape being severely punished by the nobles, and even beaten to death, he finally gave up on this idea …
Just like that, he stayed in Augus City numbly and blankly.
Until the arrival of the elves.
These strange creatures were more beautiful and noble than the legends, and at the same time, more powerful.
Like gods descending from the heavens, they took less than a day to completely conquer Augus City, and Fayne, who was one of the defenders, became a captive.
Although he had become a captive, Fayne heaved a sigh of relief.
Because he finally didn't have to face those evil god believers who talked about how to kill people at every turn.
He thought that he would continue to be conscripted as a soldier, but the elves just let him spit on the abominable statue of the evil god and let him go.
He did this without any hesitation.
If he wasn't afraid of those evil followers, he would have done so long ago!
After regaining his freedom, even the gold pounds that had been plundered by the nobles were returned by the elves.
Not only that, the elves even gave him an extra gold pound for his journey home.
That was a gold pound! He had scrimped and saved for almost ten years, but he had only managed to save three …
It was impossible not to be grateful.
"Merciful and generous Lord Elf, how can I repay you? If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I still wouldn't have been able to regain my freedom … "
Fayne asked the elf who had helped him excitedly.
However, the Elf only smiled.
"We don't need anything in return, but … If you have the time, are you interested in learning more about the merciful goddess and savior, the great Eve?"
"Her Majesty Eve?"
Fayne was slightly stunned.
The Elf's expression turned solemn.
"She is the great Goddess of Life, the Mother Nature revered by millions …"
Saying this, he took out a thick Holy Bible from his bosom …
…
Fayne quickly learned about the beliefs of the Goddess of Life, Eve, from the Elf.
What surprised him was that there was actually such a true god in the world. She loved life, and in her eyes, all things were equal. Her believers were also constantly striving to achieve equality and pursue a better life …
There were no lowly lives, and nobles were not noble. Everyone should be equal.
At this time, he knew why the elves would distribute the wealth of the nobles to the commoners after conquering Augus City.
At this time, he also knew why the attitude of most of the citizens in the city towards the elves changed from vigilance and curiosity to enthusiasm and support in just half a day.
At this moment, Fayne had a strong curiosity about the teachings of life.
"Lord Elf, can … can you tell me more about the teachings of the Goddess of Life?"
He asked excitedly.
The Elf was slightly stunned, and then smiled even more warmly.
"Oh! Of course! My dear Fayne, brave companion and friend! "
…
Fayne never thought that he would one day choose to become a devout believer of a true god.
In less than half a day, he was completely convinced by the teachings of the Church of Life. He knelt before the statue of the Goddess and became a new believer of life.
He decided not to return to the village, but to stay and participate in the cause of the elves, Miss Sophia's cause, for the future of the entire territory, for the sake of creating a beautiful world without nobles!
For this, he once again took up a weapon and became a militia.
However, this time, the young man was full of drive and faith!
The war did not end.
Augus City was soon faced with the counterattack of the Maple Kingdom's army.
Tens of thousands of soldiers surrounded the city, and the battle began again.
However, what shocked and angered Fayne was that he actually saw the familiar figures of his village on the battlefield …
Those ordinary villagers, they … the nobles of the Maple Kingdom used their blood contracts to threaten the lives of their loved ones, and forced them to participate in the siege as cannon fodder!
Fayne's heart was filled with anger as he looked at the sad and desperate expression of Hanses, whose granddaughter had died and his grandson's life was threatened. He looked at the relief in the eyes of the other villagers when they died.
"Lord Elf, please save everyone!"
He begged the commander of the elves, the handsome elven ranger (hunter).
"There is only one person in the Elven Forest who can nullify the blood contracts, and that is the Goddess of Life, Her Majesty Eve."
"So … we can only pray to the Goddess and hope for her response."
The Elf sighed.
Goddess!
Pray to the Goddess!
A glimmer of hope flashed in Fayne's eyes.
He could not watch those familiar voices die in such a way. He wanted to save everyone.
The young man did not hesitate. He hurriedly knelt in the direction of the temple and prayed in a low voice.
"Merciful and great Her Majesty Eve, please save Grandpa Hanses and the others …"
Augus City was very large.
Apart from some citizens, many of the militia who chose to defend the city with the elves were young men who had been recruited from the nearby villages.
They also saw familiar figures in the crowd of people attacking the city. After being shocked, they were furious. After the anger, they felt the same fear and confusion as Fayne.
As Fayne prayed, others quickly joined him and started praying piously in the direction of the temple.
For a moment, figures praying to the temple could be seen everywhere on the city walls. Even the citizens in the city fell silent when they heard the news. They spontaneously joined in the prayers.
The nobles of Augus City had already fled, died, or been punished. Everyone who still lived in the city was a commoner, and everyone had their own friends and family outside the city.
While the fox mourned for the death of the rabbit, more and more people joined in the prayers, carrying the hope of the Goddess of Life.
For a moment, a large number of commoners knelt down. Their prayers resounded throughout the city, forming a stark contrast to the shouts of killing on the city walls.
Looking at this scene, the elves' gazes became complicated. The leading elven commander sighed and said, "Don't grind.
"Everyone, stop farming. Just put them on the city wall and stun them. The ones who are attacking us now are not our enemies, but our future believers." (Elven)
After hearing his words, the fighting elves on the city walls had different expressions.
Some nodded in agreement and changed the blade in their hands to the back of their swords. Some sighed and started preparing control and hypnosis spells …
Of course, there were some who rebutted.
"Boss Can! Is there a need to be so sensitive? It's just a game. "(Elven language)
The Elven commander glanced at the Elf who spoke.
"Are they new gamers of the second Public Beta?" (Elven language)
The Elf who rebutted nodded.
"So what if they are?" (Elven language)
The Elven commander sneered.
"Okay, even if it's a game and utilitarian, how much EXP can these people provide? They can't even compare to Goblins. If they become believers or helpers in the future, how much help can they provide? "(Elven language)
"Since you Second Beta Gamers aren't used to enjoying 'Elven Nation' without other virtual games, you can calculate it yourself!" (Elven language)
The Elf who rebutted was stunned.
Then, he was silent for a while and changed the blade to the back of his sword.
Fayne couldn't understand the conversation of the Elves.
However, many of them, including him, noticed that the Elves had changed their combat style.
Seeing the choice of the beautiful creatures, everyone's eyes were filled with gratitude and respect.
What a benevolent and kind existence!
Only Her Holiness the Goddess of Life could have such dependents, right?
The people were moved. They knelt in the direction of the temple and prayed devoutly.
Fayne kept praying and kowtowing.
He had never yearned for a response from the gods as much as he did now.
He had never knelt down so devoutly.
The murmuring prayers converged and resounded in the sky above the city. It was even vaguely comparable to the battle cries on the city walls …
As the people prayed, suddenly, a golden power rose high in the center of the city. A gentle and warm energy spread rapidly …
Fayne looked up in a daze and was shocked to see a golden radiance in the direction of the temple. Dreamy golden photons began to dance in the city.
The photons were like living beings and fluttering snowflakes. They fell from the sky and landed on the people.
At that moment, Fayne felt a warm power spreading to his limbs. The fatigue in his body seemed to be swept away in an instant. Even his anxious and uneasy feelings were inexplicably calm.
"A miracle …! This … this is a miracle! "
"The Goddess has responded to us! This must be the Goddess' response! "
"Praise life! Praise nature! Praise the great Goddess Eve! "
The praying Elves were excited.
The eyes of the elves were also filled with surprise, but it quickly turned into excitement.
"Gosh! It's the power of the Goddess! "(Elven language)
"Wow! So if we pray together sincerely, we can really attract the attention of the Goddess?! "(Elven language)
Fayne was excited as he looked at the golden photons flying in the sky.
His eyes followed the flying photons and his eyes became more and more devout.
When he saw the photons land on Grandpa Hans' body and the symbol of the blood contract on Hans' wrist gradually fade and finally disappear … He could not help but exclaim.
"The blood contract … the blood contract disappeared!"
Fayne's voice attracted everyone's attention. They quickly paid attention to the villagers who were knocked out by the Elves.
"It's … It's really gone!"
"Goddess! The Goddess Eve has heard our prayers! "
"The great and benevolent Goddess Eve, thank you for your grace, thank you for your grace!"
The Elves were extremely excited. They looked at the temple with fanaticism. Many of them even had tears in their eyes.
However, at this moment, the entire sky suddenly darkened slightly. A palpitating fear rose in everyone's heart.
Fayne subconsciously raised his head to look at the sky. He did not know when, but thick dark clouds had gathered in the sky.
The clouds kept rolling. Bolts of lightning flashed with purple light, accompanied by faint thunder.
Suddenly, the clouds parted and a towering giant appeared in the sky.
His gaze was cold, ruthless, cruel, and chaotic.
Fayne's face instantly turned pale when he saw that terrifying giant. He collapsed to the ground.
That image was exactly the same as the statue of the God that he had been forced to worship under the threat of the professional soldiers of the Maple Kingdom …
"Yellow … Dusk and Sunset Evil God …"
He trembled as he muttered.
The clouds continued to roll. The giant extended his palm and slapped the ground.
In an instant, the entire world was shrouded in a huge shadow.
Fayne's face was deathly pale as he looked at the approaching giant palm. An unprecedented fear rose in his heart.
At this moment, he remembered the legend of the Empire's army being wiped out …
However, just as the palm was about to land on the temporary Temple of Life in the city, a golden sword light suddenly flashed from the void and slashed the palm!
