Chapter 17: A Spark of Hope

"Holy Maiden, run away! We're here to stand in the way!"

"Please live!

"Hurry up, we will be your shield!

"Holy Maiden, you are our hope! As long as you live, everything will turn around!"

"We are not afraid of sacrifice! Saint Maiden! The hope you have given us! Always by our side!"

The leader of the Hope Sect, the Holy Maiden Finney, held back the tears in her eyes, listened to the tragic tearing sound behind her, and tried her best to keep running forward. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Saint Finnie kept telling herself in her heart that she must not look back, she must not stop, she must live, she must live for the sake of those believers of the Sect of Hope who voluntarily block the pursuers and are willing to sacrifice themselves.

She is the hope of everyone, so she herself cannot give up hope and must break through this difficulty.

A woman who looks to be in her early twenties, in order to eradicate the fear and confusion in her heart, uses the power of hope in her body, so that her heart is filled with absolute hope in an instant.

The sense of despair that was originally deeply shrouded in the truth of the Holy Maiden Finney disappeared in an instant, and now she is full of momentum and hope to live.

The power of the power is divided into several stages, the most basic level, the power can only be used by others, when the control is further, the power can be used to influence themselves.

Influenced by her own power of hope, Finney's eyes are full of light, and she will not give up no matter what difficulties she faces.

Not only for the sake of the believers who sacrificed, but also for the sake of the adult, and to live herself!

In the dark darkness of the darkness, Finney ran in a straight line in the field, and when she saw the dense forest in front of her, she knew that the terrain in it was a good opportunity to get rid of the pursuers behind her, and immediately got into it.

As she galloped, she carefully avoided the trees and plants, and quickly moved through the forest.

The sound of chasing behind her began to fade, and she knew that she was gradually moving away from the other party, but she still had to continue to flee for the sake of safety.

The other party wants to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, because the Hope Sect has done something that is not good for them, and Fini, the leader, is their primary target.

Fei Ni sighed in her heart, she was still too careless in her actions, and let the other party's hegemonic force find out what the Hope Sect was doing behind the scenes.

At the behalf-off behalf-handed order, Fini asked the followers to quietly spread unfavorable rumors about the other party in Bellabette, affecting the hearts of the people and making the name of the overlord of Arcana synonymous with tyrant.

Finny's small gestures were successful, and Arcana grew to be called a tyrant and tyrant, and the people felt badly about the big man.

However, her actions were also in vain, the other party relied on its strong military strength to easily capture one city-state after another, and all the gossip could not have any effect on him, and a ripple could not stir up.

In the face of absolute power, the so-called people's hearts are such fragile things, and Finney, who has no other way, also stopped this senseless act after the fall of the city-state where her headquarters is located.

Still, the overlords found out what the Hope Sect was doing and sanctioned them.

After a while, she thought that the other party had not noticed it, and continued her missionary work with peace of mind, but today, when the leaders of the Hope sect gathered for the annual denominational discussion, the other party suddenly appeared.

Without saying a word, those magisters in black uniforms directly attacked the Hope Sect, and quickly suppressed the Hope Sect that was caught off guard.

Fei Ni immediately understood that the other party had been waiting for this opportunity, waiting for a great opportunity to eradicate the backbone members of the Hope Sect once and for all.

Finney had tried to resist, unleashing her power of hope on the invading Magister.

Her power is not an offensive force, but it fills the hearts of the enemy with hope, which can make them stop attacking, and when the heart is filled with positive light, people will feel that killing is a stupid act and begin to reflect on themselves with shame.

It was by using the power of hope to influence and absorb believers that Finney used her power of hope over others, and she was quite familiar with the process.

However, for the first time, the power she possessed failed.

The Magisters, who had tattoos on the backs of their hands and hands, were completely unaffected by the power of hope, and felt no light of hope at all, except for the uncomfortable frown at first.

Finney was stunned, she felt that the magisters were enveloped in a deep darkness, the dark power that opposed to hope, washed away her hope.

This is of course she understands that the other party has mastered her own depth and has prepared defensive measures in advance.

She couldn't influence the intruders anymore.

Finney, who had no other choice, escaped alone at the expense of her followers at the cost of their lives.

The Holy Daughter of the Hope Sect, Finny, is the core of the Hope Sect, and as long as she is alive, everything will turn around.

As long as she goes to the West, to the big forces on that side for support, she can once again raise the Hope Sect, they have a close relationship with that adult, and they will definitely protect themselves.

The forces in the west are as strong as they are, and with the support of the countries behind them, even Arcana, who has an army of abominable and hateful undead, does not dare to provoke a war lightly, as can be seen from the actions they are taking now.

"Eh, that's what you think?"

In the dark forest, a somewhat leisurely-sounding male voice suddenly sounded.

Finney was so cold that her heart was beating uncontrollably.

She's been discovered!

Finney quickly turned to get away from the direction from which the sound came from, but only then did she realize that her body was completely immobile and could not move for half a minute.

"When is this?"

The lower half of Finney's body was tightly pinned to the ground by a layer of dark blue ice, and no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't move half of the ice on her body.

The chill she felt not only appeared in her heart, but also turned into a reality in reality.

It was an ice cube created by magic, and with the power she possessed, it was completely impossible to break free.

"It's funny, it's the first time I've seen you like this. ā€

In the depths of the dark woods, Lin Yuan stepped on the grass on the ground and appeared.

Behind him, Bonn, a death knight in black heavy armor, appeared together with a strong chill.

The magic ice cube cage on Finney's body is the effect of the Death Knight's magical abilities.

"I can't imagine that there would really be a powerful person willing to divide a part of the power and create a so-called powerful apostle. ā€

Lin Yuan walked up to Finney's side and looked at her curiously.

The cold ice on Finny's body had already blocked her entire body, except for her breathing nostrils and eyes, everything else was sealed in the ice, and her mouth was also frozen, unable to speak, she could only gaze at Lin Yuan stubbornly with a pair of eyes containing hope.

"I've heard from a certain magician that when the powerful are strong enough, they can divide part of their power and give it to others, so that they can skillfully avoid the uniqueness of the power and create another person with the same power, but this will permanently reduce the power of the power, and I can't imagine that anyone is really willing to do this. ā€

Lin Yuan's eyes turned pitch black, and he used the Void Spirit Demon Eye to observe the power and magic on Fini's body.

"This kind of person who accepts the division of power and power, what the magic world calls the apostle of the powerful, is a very rare kind of person, although the powerful person can recycle the power in the apostle's body at any time as long as he is close to his apostle, but how many people dare to do this in the world? Not to mention sent thousands of miles away, you say yes? The apostle of the Hope Might, the Holy Maiden of the Hope Sect. ā€

Fini was stared at by those dark eyes, and the light of hope in her heart kept diminishing, she didn't know why this happened, but in the face of this power, she already understood who this person was.

"I'm really curious, according to my intelligence, the Hopeful Mighty is in the coastal city to the east, why did he send his apostles to the west, which is 108,000 miles away, and then carry out the matter of establishing a sect? ā€

The darkness in Lin Yuan's eyes faded, and he smiled at the frozen Finney.

"Your Excellency, I hope you will be willing to cooperate with me later, I don't think you want to suffer too much, right?"

Seeing the other man's smile, Finney felt a sense of trepidation, and in order to overcome this feeling of fear, she once again activated the power of hope that the adult had given her, and filled her heart with courage once more.

She will never give in to the forces of evil!

"Ah, by the way, let's suppress this nasty power first. ā€

Lin Yuan smiled, gently stretched out his index finger, and pointed at Fini's forehead.

Finney felt a burning pain in her forehead, and then, to her horror, the magic in her body began to fade rapidly.

Looking at the spell mark on Fini's forehead, Lin Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

This is the Sacrificial Brand, a simplified version of the Sacrificial Circle, which can connect with Lin Yuan through the ubiquitous dream realm, and continuously absorb the power of the brander.

For some mages who have become prisoners, Lin Yuan will put this sacrificial imprint on the other party, constantly absorbing the magic power in the other party's body, making them powerless and losing all ability to resist.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you, but you have a very important purpose. ā€

Lin Yuan showed a big smile as if he was looking at some precious item.

Finney, who had lost her magic power, could no longer maintain the hope in her heart, she looked at Lin Yuan with horror on her face, wanting to close her eyes, but she couldn't do it for some reason.

Is this human? What the hell is he! Finney wanted not to look at the other, but as if she was enchanted, she looked at the young man in front of her without blinking.

Fear and despair spread wildly in Finney's heart, her eyes filled with chaos and confusion, and all the light of hope had completely disappeared.

"What a fragile human being......"

Lin Yuan noticed the other party's performance and began to restrain the expression on his face.

"Your Excellency, you must not lose the hope in your heart, otherwise, you will be worthless. ā€

Lin Yuan connected to the dream realm, activated the dream magic book, and performed a sleep spell on Fini, causing her to fall into a deep sleep.

Lin Yuan looked at the city in the distance, where the headquarters of the Hope Sect was being cleaned by the Engraved Magister.

Everything is going according to plan.

"Next, it's just a matter of waiting. ā€

Lin Yuan smiled slightly, and left the lightless forest with the death knight.
