#683 - False God
Chapter 659 Pseudo-God Descent
Allen witnessed the three collapses on the ground of the construction site, even sensing the scene where the earth spirit Zelong was about to be buried as he failed to escape in time.
Originally, Allen wouldn't have hesitated to display his strength and save the earth spirit clansmen, but at this moment, he was over 4000 meters in a straight line from the construction site. Even if he advanced to demigod status, he couldn't possibly cross thousands of meters in an instant to save the earth spirit.
However, deep in his consciousness, when he sensed the collapse and the aura of the clansman about to be buried, he genuinely wanted to take action.
And it just so happened that the earth spirit Zelong, who was about to be buried, made the most sincere and devout prayer in his heart. The soul frequencies of the two sides were suddenly influenced by each other at this moment, resulting in resonance.
Deep within the vortex of anger at his heart, at the core of the orange-red flames of rage, a tiny speck of faith, like dust, sensed the true thoughts of its owner. Just as the soul frequency of the believer aligned with Allen's frequency, the always quiet speck of faith suddenly burst out with golden light.
If Allen could introspect, and if his introspective mental power could be reduced countless times, then he would discover that the space where the speck of faith resided at the core of the vortex of anger was not empty.
Tiny specks of dim light, even smaller than the speck of faith, formed a band of light, constantly orbiting the speck of faith.
This scene was just like the endless depths of the starry sky above the firmament, the seemingly small but actually enormous galaxies, with almost no difference.
Within the band of light, a speck of dust suddenly burst out with even stronger light in the golden glow, like a child responding to its mother. The speck of faith, having received the response, quickly retracted its light, and a beam of light shot straight towards the speck of dust that echoed it.
A wave of unknown energy, distinct from magical energy, quickly surged out from Allen's body. Before Allen, as the owner, could react, the wave had already disappeared without a trace, and even the few spellcasters beneath his feet were completely unaware.
"...Quick, save him!!!!!"
The collapse didn't last long. It was already the third collapse, and there wasn't much unstable rock and soil remaining above. When everything settled, the supervisor in charge of the construction site shouted loudly, and a group of laborers frantically ran back to the scene and began digging.
No one showed panic on their faces. Although the Green Field tribe had far more construction experience than other tribes, it was still inevitable that workers would lose their lives when excavating mountains and tunnels in recent years, and everyone had long been accustomed to it.
Given the current level of danger from the collapse, everyone's rescue efforts were just psychological comfort. If it weren't for Green Field supervising the construction, with requirements for construction safety and rescue, any other tribe opening mountains would probably use slaves and prisoners as pioneers, and their deaths would only be blamed on their bad luck.
The practices of other wilderness tribes were understandable, after all, this approach could save expenses and protect the safety of their own clansmen; but the Green Field tribe acted independently, willing to pay even more.
To speed up progress, slaves and prisoners could not be used. With the work efficiency of these two types of laborers, even if their numbers were doubled, their efficiency could not reach the level of hired laborers. At the same time, the purpose of using laborers was originally to solve the problem of overpopulation in several tribes, and to give these bottom-level natives a chance for generous rewards.
And in secret, the Green Field tribe strengthened construction safety and rescue, using facts to prove their emphasis on human life, which was also a great opportunity to promote the Green Field tribe's philosophy, selling people's hearts invisibly. This was also a lesson that Allen gave to Oliver, Tris, and other high-level members of the tribe.
"We found him!!! He's here!!!"
The loose layer of soil and rocks was dug open. Dozens of laborers and supervisors worked hard to rescue their buried companion. Finally, after more than half a magic hour, they dug out the burly body of the earth spirit.
At this time, everyone had no hope for Zelong's survival. Even if they dug up his corpse, being buried under tens of tons of rock and soil, without air to breathe for half a magic hour, unless it was the body of a legendary powerhouse, even a high-level warrior would have lost his life.
The construction team also had a full-time divine术师 to treat injuries and illnesses. In this world full of magical wonders, as long as the head wasn't directly chopped off or the heart pierced, the divine术师 could possibly pull them back from the River Styx.
Of course, now that most of the body of the earth spirit, whose face couldn't be seen, was still buried in the soil and rocks, the on-duty high-level druid troll, Arthur, was just fulfilling his duty, running to the unconscious body of the earth spirit Zelong, preparing to examine him.
"Huh??"
As soon as he put his hand on the exposed body of the earth spirit, there was no expected icy touch, but still a normal body temperature. Arthur couldn't help but let out a surprised low cry. Then she reached towards Zelong's chest, and a strong heartbeat was transmitted from the palm to Arthur's senses. Without further hesitation, Arthur shouted loudly: "Quick, dig him out, he still has a heartbeat!!"
Swish swish...
The crowd suddenly stirred, and in a few moments, they dug out the buried companion.
"What a lucky guy!!"
"How did he survive? So amazing!!"
...
The laborers watching the excitement not far away marveled, discussing in whispers. Not only were these bottom-level laborers surprised, but even Arthur, a high-level druid, and several warrior supervisors were also very curious about Zelong's survival.
Above the clouds in the sky, Allen, the instigator, was also taken aback. Just now, it was only a brief moment, and his consciousness suddenly possessed the devoutly praying earth spirit Zelong.
Seeing tons of falling rocks砸coming from overhead, Allen didn't think twice and made a self-rescue action. However, the earth spirit Zelong, possessed by Allen, was not strong enough. Although Allen punched upwards and smashed the falling heavy stone to the side, the earth spirit's body also sank into the ground at the same time.
Before Allen's consciousness could manipulate the earth spirit's body to react, more heavy soil and rocks buried Zelong's body.
Under the limitation of strength, Allen could only subconsciously activate the legendary expertise characteristic of the Steel Body, preparing to withstand the upcoming heavy pressure. Unexpectedly, although the earth spirit's body was only controlled by Allen's consciousness, with the blessing of a mysterious force from a certain source, the strengthening ability of the Steel Body actually appeared on Zelong.
Under the immense weight, the earth elemental was completely buried in the soil. However, thanks to the metallic body, the earth elemental's originally fragile body remained unscathed.
Even in this airtight space, where suffocation should have occurred, Allen's consciousness controlled the body, and with the nourishment of an unknown energy, the earth elemental endured for half a magic hour without taking a breath.
It wasn't until Ze Lang's body was found and he was out of danger that Allen's consciousness flickered again, separating from Ze Lang's body and regaining awareness of his own physical existence.
Everything around him was normal, and his body showed no abnormalities. Allen looked inward, examining the vortex of rage within him, carefully inspecting the vortex and the particle of faith within, but found nothing. The previous scene seemed like an illusion.
The cheers from below, celebrating the survival of their companion, served as a silent reminder to Allen that the previous scene was not an illusion. He had indeed helped that believer escape certain death.
"Ah! !"
Under the effects of a Clarity spell and a Heal Minor Wounds spell, the earth elemental Ze Lang slowly awoke from his coma.
He felt as if he had just had a dream, a dream where a golden flame descended from the sky, attaching itself to his body, manipulating his body, and smashing a heavy boulder away with a single punch. Although he ultimately couldn't escape the collapsing area, Ze Lang could still feel a powerful force protecting him, sustaining his life.
Such a miraculous event defied any rational explanation. Ze Lang could only believe that it was the divine miracle displayed by the powerful protector of the tribe, the great 'Food God', that had helped him escape this calamity.
Ze Lang, conscripted from Green Lake Town, outwardly lived like his other brethren, but secretly, he was a devout believer in the 'Food God Praise Society'. Having traveled and adventured outside, Ze Lang had seen the world and understood the living conditions of other tribes in the wilderness. Only then did he deeply appreciate the happiness and prosperity of the Green Field Tribe's people.
All of this was thanks to the wise and benevolent Great Chieftain, who had led the Green Field Tribe to thrive and develop, seeking a better life and providing the Green Field people with a larger stage and more choices.
Therefore, when the kind members of the town's charity organization, who provided care to Ze Lang, subtly preached the great achievements of the 'Food God', he readily joined the Praise Society after learning a little about it, becoming one of the most devout believers in the society.
In this eastward construction team, besides Ze Lang, there were actually several other believers who had also joined the Praise Society, but due to the Praise Society's strict rules and regulations, they were unaware of each other's identities.
"You really are lucky, to survive such a collapse! !"
After carefully examining Ze Lang's body, the healing druid Arthur was not only surprised but also spoke to Ze Lang with a comforting tone.
"Even your body doesn't have any internal injuries, only minor abrasions. It's truly unbelievable! !"
"Thank you."
Although Ze Lang inwardly believed that it was the power of protection given to him by the great being he worshipped, he still did not forget to express his gratitude to Arthur as he leaped to his feet.
Whoa ~ ~ ~ ~
The surrounding crowd erupted in an uproar, never expecting that the fellow they thought was certain to die, or at least be seriously injured, could actually get up unscathed, seemingly not even needing basic rest.
Ze Lang was smug and kept chanting prayers in his heart, expressing his gratitude and reverence to the great being.
… … … …
Allen himself was also quite bewildered. He, as the person involved, was completely unaware of what exactly happened or how it happened. This was a very serious matter for the bear goblin leader who was accustomed to controlling himself.
Although this sudden incident itself was so magical that Allen couldn't help but want to try again.
Looking down at the lively figure below and confirming that the other party was unharmed, Allen waved his big hand backward, and his body suddenly exerted force and went straight to the western mountains.
"… … Listening to your description, this seems very similar to divine descent! !"
Deep in the mountains of the western foothills of the Catoer Mountains, the summit of a majestic mountain is covered with white snow, looking sacred and beautiful. At the highest point of the mountain, an active volcano is spewing hot, scorching lava flows. Figlas, in his adult red dragon form, is soaking in the lava full of pungent sulfur, stirring the lava comfortably and absorbing the free fire elemental energy from the volcano.
This is a comfortable foothold that Figlas found in the Catoer Mountains. Just looking at the nest next to the lava pool, which is integrated and built with volcanic rock on the spot, and the nest is filled with golden coins and various crystal gems, it is known that the giant dragon has no plans to leave the Green Field Tribe's territory in a short time.
Allen sought out Figlas because he also wanted to use the other party's inherited knowledge to help him consult about the previous mutation. Compared to his own ignorance of the road to becoming a god, at least the giant dragon's long years and the dragon clan's long inheritance could give Allen some hints and help.
"Divine descent? ?"
Allen was no stranger to this. Back then, when he seized control of Green Field and destroyed the first gnoll tribe, he had experienced the divine descent technique performed by the gnoll priest using his own soul as a sacrifice.
But the object of the divine descent was at least comparable to a god, the evil god Yeenoghu, known as the King of Gnolls! !
And he was just a demigod who had just advanced, a groping for divine power who couldn't even sense the so-called power of faith.
"Tsk tsk tsk! !"
Figlas's vertical pupils couldn't help but cast an envious look, and he said in a high-pitched tone: "I didn't expect that you would be able to grope for the prototype of divine descent so quickly! !"
"I don't even know what happened, groping my ass! !"
Allen said unhappily.
At this time, thinking carefully, his sudden consciousness possession of the earth elemental, controlling his body to complete all kinds of incredible things, was really similar to divine descent in some ways! It's just a pity that at this time, no matter how Allen recalls and tries the previous feeling, it all ends in failure, without eliciting any feedback.
"Since you now have such magical changes, it shows that your path of spreading faith is at least not wrong in direction! !"
Figlas said enviously, and at the same time, he was also a bit proud. This was the future deity he, Figlas, had personally guided. Perhaps with the help of this friend Allen, the name of Devouring Flame Dragon could also leave a strong record in the dragon clan! ! !
