Chen Feng's mind was in chaos during this time. Apex X23US
Not only was his brain constantly receiving faith from the Order, but more importantly, after forcibly taking in 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 wreaking havoc in his mind. Ever since he had advanced to Epic, this situation had begun to change. It was not that there was a problem with faith, but a very wonderful feeling.
It was similar to how a human's naked eye could only distinguish a limited number of colors, but a pigeon could distinguish millions of colors. A human's naked eye could only see ordinary colors, but in the eyes of a pigeon, those colors would change into something else. It could only be said that the difference between their ranks had caused Chen Feng's strength to be in a mysterious state.
When he was a Legend or even a half-step Epic, Chen Feng did not feel the power of faith very strongly, but after he had advanced to Epic, his perception had changed. It was like a tap that was previously blocked by water, but after it was unblocked, more water would flow out. It was the same principle.
The believers were praying.
Even if they were all chanting the same name, Chen Feng, because of the language barrier, different races, and different wills, all kinds of voices were mixed together, making people feel an indescribable sense of disgust. It was like millions of people were chanting in your ears every day. This feeling for a long time could even drive people crazy.
Even if Chen Feng's current strength was not strong enough to listen to the chanting of millions of people at the same time, after all, he was only an Epic, not a Myth, or an Eternal Realm that was infinitely close to the God Realm. The current him was still very weak in front of the power of faith. If he received the chanting of millions of people at the same time, he would not be able to last even a day and would become a madman or be seriously injured.
The power of faith was originally a game for the gods. It was like getting drunk, something that only adults could come into contact with. Compared to the gods, Chen Feng was just a child. This was how the world was. There would always be a group of curious babies, or it could be said that they were delinquents. They were committed to coming into contact with adult games, so they naturally had to bear some risks.
Every time the prayer appeared, the will would grow stronger, and Chen Feng would have to expend more energy to resist it. In the end, Chen Feng had almost completely lost his perception of the outside world. His spirit, his will, and his mind were all fighting against the pervasive faith and prayers, as well as the crazy will that was fighting back with the prayers.
This was a struggle.
Once he lost, Chen Feng would become a real monster. That kind of monster did not have a specific face, but he would become different from ordinary people. It was hard to describe.
Chen Feng did not believe that he would lose.
In fact, it was impossible for his willpower to lose. What really affected him the most was that his current strength didn't allow him to do so. If he could give the believers some reaction on a large scale, it would naturally reduce the pressure brought about by the chanting. Unfortunately, Chen Feng could only give the believers some help on a small scale, which was why the damage was so great.
Pant.
He panted heavily.
Chen Feng's entire body was drenched in sweat, but his eyes gradually became clear.
The pain was fading.
After the extreme pain, he seemed to have triggered a new domain, which made him feel a wonderful and indescribable spiritual power.
If there was a metaphor to explain everything at this time.
It was like going through extreme and crazy physical training. During the training process, there were countless times when he wanted to give up, because the pain was not only physical but also spiritual. Even if the process was painful, after getting familiar with it, he would gain countless benefits. As long as he persevered, he would be able to gain something.
The sea was rising and falling, but it did not affect Chen Feng's body. At this time, he was lying on the body of a Gold-pinnacle sea monster, rushing towards the Order with all his strength.
Even if Chen Feng was now promoted to Legendary, his control of the power of space was not strong enough to break through the dimension. As for Saruman, the only one who could master the power of space, he was still in a deep sleep. So Chen Feng could only rely on his primitive power to return to the Order from the sea.
Lying on the back of the sea monster, Chen Feng's head was a little dazed. This was just the impact of the pure power of faith on his body. He needed to vent. Of course, the vent here did not refer to finding some women or doing exciting things, but to solving some problems for the believers.
Chen Feng closed his eyes.
In his consciousness, a huge throne appeared in front of him. Chen Feng stepped onto the throne and sat on it.
Feeling the scenes of chanting in his mind, Chen Feng's mind moved, and he gave the idea of making a preliminary division.
Those that were purely praising the "gods" sank to the bottom of the sea, and the speed of disappearing increased. Those that were related to confessing and praying floated up, closer to Chen Feng's palm.
Following his spiritual intuition, he "clicked" on one of the latter.
Suddenly, he saw a valley filled with fog, and heard a terrifying and sharp roar.
A warrior in beetle armor was facing off against a huge, ugly bug. The strength of the bug was obviously higher than the warrior. They were not evenly matched, but it was a one-sided game. The bug saw the warrior as food, like a cat playing with a mouse. When it got tired of playing, it would eat the warrior.
The so-called "evenly matched" was more like …
The warrior's right arm had been injured by the insect, and he could no longer pick up his weapon. He fell to the ground, looking at the insect that was right in front of him, and he was panicking as he chanted the honorific name of [Chen Feng].
Chen Feng sensed that it was a prayer in progress, so he raised one of his fingers, and on the tip of his finger, a halo bloomed one after another, and shone into the scene.
The warrior was gradually losing hope, but he suddenly felt the fear in his heart dissipate, and his mood stabilized a lot. He looked around in surprise, but found that there was a gust of wind around him, and dark clouds began to pile up in the sky, as if a storm was about to appear. Just as the warrior was still puzzled, a bolt of lightning appeared above the insect, directly striking it to death on the spot.
The warrior quickly woke up from his sluggish state, and he understood what had happened.
The "gods" had blessed him, and the "sea god" had shown his majesty!
Thump, thump, thump!
He crawled on the ground, spread out his hands, and put them to his mouth, and chanted the honorific name of the "gods" with familiarity.
"Thank you, praise you, protector of order, ruler of all people, the great Chen Feng!"
Chen Feng gathered his thoughts, and spread his spirituality to another dot of light.
This time, the chanting appeared in a world of ice and snow. It was already January, and it was winter. The surroundings were bitingly cold, and this was a world of ice and snow. Under the ice-cold current, every inch of the land was frozen, making it hard for people to breathe.
In this boundless sea of sand, two figures were moving forward with difficulty, and a series of firm and clear footprints were left behind.
Those were two children!
One was a boy, and the other was a girl. The boy looked to be only thirteen or fifteen years old, and the girl looked even younger, only around ten years old.
Their eye sockets were sunken, and that was the result of starvation. They were thin and weak, and they looked extremely weak.
It was hard to imagine that there were still such young children in this vile environment. They were tired and weak, but they did not stop at all, and continued to look for something in this snowy land.
The two children stopped, and they used simple tools to dig in the snow. They were digging for a kind of food called [Cold Meat]. The taste was not very good, and it was astringent and bitter, but it was one of the few foods in this snowy land that could fill one's stomach.
"Brother, there's less and less food. Will we starve to death?"
The girl, who was only ten years old, was already exhausted. Her thin and delicate face was covered in dust, and her eyelids were swollen with high dark bags. Clearly, she had not been sleeping well recently, and because of the cold weather, her face was flushed red. It was as if she had severe frostbite. However, she did not cry out in pain or that it was tough. She only trembled her thin shoulders as she softly asked the ten-year-old boy.
"Xiaoxiao, don't speak nonsense. I can sense that we will find food soon. Hold on a little longer. Your Excellency will bless us!"
Although the youth was equally haggard, his eyes were abnormally bright, and his tone was filled with determination. He believed in Your Excellency, and he believed what his mother had said about how everything depended on effort.
He had heard of Your Excellency's honorific name not long ago. Previously, he had relied on fish and prawns for food at the harbor, so he naturally came into contact with some ships. He vaguely remembered that it was a ship that was completely different from the City of Silver. There were many terrifying experts on the ship, but when they mentioned Your Excellency, they changed their arrogance and became abnormally respectful.
It was Your Excellency who had given them everything they wanted. A stable life, powerful strength, and even a warm family.
Li Jian didn't need much. He only needed his sister to grow up safely, and that was enough. He had been neglected in the City of Silver. Before the cold wave arrived, he could still rely on the fish and prawns by the sea for food, but after the cold wave arrived, the sea froze, and he lost his source of food. His sense of belonging to the City of Silver naturally dropped to the lowest point.
The miserable life did not make Li Jian feel despair. On the contrary, the desire to protect his sister filled him with fighting spirit. He believed in everything, believed that he could create miracles, and turn the impossible into the possible!
However, there was one thing he needed to know. In this situation of despair, fighting spirit alone was far from enough. He needed to find some spiritual sustenance. He suddenly thought of the Sir Chen Feng that the crew had mentioned. Since then, he had been chanting that name all the time, trying to get his favor.
The little girl nodded. She believed in everything her brother said.
In this environment where death and grayness were the main themes, the siblings' dependence was the only motivation that allowed them to survive.
Life was cruel.
They still needed to go through a long period of digging like this.
"Pitter-patter …"
Suddenly, the sound of trampling came from not far away, accompanied by a slight snow mist. It was two snow rats.
The apocalypse had changed this world. After two years of development, animals had completed their own mutation and evolution. These snow rats were only low-level wild beasts, and their strength had not even reached the Bronze rank. However, they were extremely fast, and their two front teeth were extremely hard. Compared to them, Li Jian was no match for them.
In the cold weather, humans were not the only ones who were pitiful. The wild beasts were also looking for food everywhere.
"Brother, let's run!"
The little girl looked at Li Jian and said with a trembling voice.
"No, we can't run. This is a snowy area. We can't escape their pursuit. Bury your head. They won't stay here for long. As long as they leave, we'll be safe."
Years of wandering had taught Li Jian to be calm. At this moment, his eyes shone with a calm light. He slowly lowered his head, hoping that the snow rats would leave as soon as possible.
During the years of wandering, Li Jian and his sister had encountered countless dangers. Every time, they had survived. Now, Li Jian was also full of confidence.
However, the heavens did not favor them this time.
The field of vision in the snow was very wide. From the beginning, the snow rats had noticed Li Jian and his sister. At this moment, their eyes revealed a ferocious look. They screamed and ran towards Li Jian, one from the left and one from the right.
"Brother, they found us!"
Looking at the snow rats running towards them, the little girl trembled with fear. It was as if a piece of ice had been placed on her chest. It was so cold that it pierced her bones. Her whole body trembled unconsciously.
"Damn it!"
Li Jian did not turn his head. Instead, he stared at the two rats in front of him. He tightened his grip on the wooden stick in his hand. The wooden stick was rough and sturdy. It was also stained with blood. It was because he had been looking for food for a long time. His hands had been rubbed and blisters had broken. In the cold weather, the blood had soaked the wooden stick, revealing a dark purple color.
The wooden stick was his weapon.
The snowy terrain was dangerous. Even a brave warrior would not be able to exert 100% of his strength here, let alone the weak and tired Li Jian. If Li Jian was said to be a dagger, then the two snow rats in front of him were horse-slaying machetes that could cut through flesh and blood!
There was no comparison at all between the two sides!
"Brother …"
The little girl's lips trembled. She tugged at the corner of Li Jian's clothes. At this moment, she was like a sad fledgling. She looked extremely frightened.
Li Jian did not speak. He held the wooden stick in his hand and stared ahead. Due to his excessive nervousness, a trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth. Even so, he did not choose to escape. Instead, he faced the enemy head-on and did not retreat a single step.
They had encountered an unprecedented crisis.
"Hiss …"
The snow rats first observed their "prey" and then hissed. Their voices were filled with excitement.
This land believed in the law of the jungle. Humans would catch snow rats to satisfy their hunger. Naturally, the snow rats would also hunt the weak humans for food.
Even though the two sides were separated by dozens of meters, the snow rats were extremely fast. They were charging forward at an extremely fast speed. The Hun Tribe cavalry roared. They looked ferocious and terrifying.
Looking at the enemies charging in front of her, the little girl's heart trembled again. She was so frightened that her face turned ashen. Her desire to escape grew even more serious. She hurriedly grabbed Li Jian's sleeve. Her eyes were red and she looked pitiful.
Even the strong Li Jian could not help but tremble at the sight of the snow rats charging at him. His eyes were filled with despair. He could not help but think, "If there really is a god, please save us … I beg you … I beg you …"
