In the yellow sand, interspersed with black, burning ashes, a group of ragged, withered refugees are struggling to advance under the scorching sun. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info They were too thin-clothed to imagine how they could resist the cold of the desert nights, and many of them even wore water bladders made of rudimentary bark, and a few shriveled wild fruits hung haphazardly on their bodies, and they still walked numbly forward as if they did not know that these poor 'supplies' could not get them out of the desert. The hot yellow sand was like a demon, leaving the raised feet as it seemed to take away their vitality as well, and some people fell silently into the yellow sand, not even having the strength to let out a final cry.

There was a mix of races, half human and half human, and all members had frighteningly thin faces because of hunger and thirst, and at the forefront were a lame camel with dirty hair and an elderly human in old light armor, two men who were clearly in leadership seemed to have seen the world, and even in such an environment they were determined, and there was no numbness or despair in their eyes.

"Shaku, how far is the next oasis?"

Glancing back at the sleepwalking crowd, the old man turned to the camel man and whispered, "If we can't find a place to resupply, these people will collapse." ”

"It's almost there...... You should trust me a little more, Kaant. ”

The old camel replied hoarsely, shaking his already shriveled hump, not letting his fellow humans see his agitation. The arrival of the gods changed many things, not only in their peaceful lives, but also in the terrain of this desert. A huge meteorite that accompanied a god fell and exploded in the desert, so that the desert had changed so much from the one he was familiar with, and he now relied not on his memories, but on his instinct as a camel man to find possible oases nearby, if it hadn't already been buried by ashes or turned into a mire.

"It's better to be quick. ”

The elderly Karnt shook his head with a sigh, picked up the old military water bladder he was carrying, and took a sip with great cherishment: "If you can't find a suitable place before nightfall, at least half of these people will fall again...... When we escaped from the village—"

His words stopped abruptly, and the camel man beside him stopped at the same time, raised the throwing gun in his hand, which had been used as a crutch, and looked cautiously ahead.

"Shaku, am I hallucinating, or is there really a tree ahead?"

Karnt muttered and stared ahead, forgetting to tighten the lid.

"It's not an illusion, no apparition in the desert can fool the eyes of the camel...... I saw the tree too. ”

The camel man replied in a low voice. At this moment, the people behind the two also stopped, like a stone thrown into a pool of stagnant water, and the buzzing sound quickly spread among the crowd.

In the center of everyone's attention, a large verdant tree stands proudly in the yellow sand, under the tree is an alluring pool of clear water, and the sky and canopy are reflected in the clear water about dozens of paces wide, which looks like heaven in the eyes of these thirsty refugees.

"Be careful, everyone!"

Knowing that it was impossible to resist the temptation of the pool of water for these refugees, Karnt only gave a loud reminder, and then hurried forward with Shaku the camel.

The closer he got, the more certain he became that it was not an apparition, that the air could already smell fresh water, and that the sound of the wind blowing the leaves was even more real—the phantom in the desert was only an image, and it could not have such a real sound and smell.

"Wait!"

Just as Shaku was starting to get excited, Kaante suddenly shouted, "Slow down, everyone—there's someone under the tree!"

Although he is old, he is still the one with the best eyesight among this group of people who have cultivated, and at this moment he has clearly seen that there are still a few people resting under the tree, and at this moment he has already discovered their group of people, and they have climbed up from their sleeping bags, and looked at this side with some wariness.

"I'll go take a look. ”

After a brief judgment of the situation, Karnt made a decision. He and Shaku were the only ones who were a little stronger, and the old camel man was an important guide, so he was the only one who came into contact with these strangers.

"Be careful. ”

The old camel man had nothing to say, shook his hump, and tightened his grip on the rudimentary throwing gun.

Kant nodded, took a deep breath, and strode forward.

"Strange traveler, we are refugees who have fled here from the other side of the desert of 'Namu', please allow us to rest here and replenish our water. ”

He saluted neither humbly nor arrogantly, and with the experienced expression of his hands, he showed that he was not hostile.

Four humans and one orc among the five people on the opposite side also looked like refugees, but they were in much better condition than the refugees themselves, cleanly clothed and more energetic, but strangely could not see where their supplies were except for a few sleeping bags...... It's really strange, how did they get to the heart of the Muda Desert?

Kaante was thinking wildly, while the person on the other side first looked at his light armor with vigilance, and then looked behind him to see the group of refugees, and his gaze gradually relaxed.

"You can refill your water here. ”

After a moment of whispering, one of the five men under the tree who was slightly shorter stepped forward and said their decision: "But only ten people are allowed to come at a time, and the others must stay away, or we will let you know the cost of disobedience." ”

He waved his hand to a man in a tattered robe beside him, and the man in the robe immediately took out a strange emblem, stuck it in the ground, took out a desert lizard from his bosom and placed it in front of the emblem, and prayed in a low voice. His voice was low, and Karnt vaguely heard only a few words, such as 'Goddess Reibet', 'weakling', 'protect', and so on, but what happened next made the old man's eyes widen in surprise - the desert lizard flashed and suddenly disappeared, and the emblem on the ground glowed, and quickly turned into a huge rock golem, and after glancing at the refugees with red eyes, he rumbled to the edge of the pool, and stood there motionless like a guard.

"Oh my God!"

"What is this ......?"

"Is it a demon? a demon is sacrificing ......."

There was a murmur of surprise among the refugees, and Kaante froze in place, unable to recover for a moment. Compared with the refugees who have never seen the world, the old man who has participated in several major wars with the army still has a certain understanding of the power outside of force, but the strange spells of these people in front of him make him scratch his head, it seems to be a sacrifice, and it seems to be a divine skill, the old man has never seen such a strange magic.

"Bastards, keep your tongues in mind!"

The person on the other side seemed to have good ears, and he could hear the whispers of the refugees, and immediately reprimanded: "What sacrifice! Don't insult the great goddess 'Reaibet' with that kind of demonic trick! This is the guardian emblem that the goddess has given to us for the weak, specially designed to protect the weak from bullying!"

"I'm sorry, we have no intention of offending any noble god, it's just some nonsense that the countrymen don't know, please calm your anger!"

Karnt turned his head and glared fiercely at the refugees who couldn't control their tongues, and hurriedly lowered his head to explain. Although he had not heard of any 'Reibet', as long as he was called a god, he could not be provoked by the refugees who were struggling to survive.

"Hmph, you should feel lucky, the great goddess 'Reaibet' is not one of those who cares about the words of mortals, she looks at the world tenderly, giving protection and assistance to the weak......"

Although the fellow opposite accepted the apology, he seemed to be a little unwilling, and began to explain the deeds of the goddess 'Erebet' endlessly, and although Carnt did not want to listen to his preach-like words, he was forced to listen politely due to the situation...... However, although the guy on the other side looked like those thugs who begged for a living in the dark class, he was very eloquent, and Karnt soon became a little more attentive, and after listening to some of the deeds of this strange goddess, he was even more excited.

According to this man, the goddess 'Reaibet' was a very selfless deity, and she did not pay any refuge to the weak in the world, and did not even ask them to believe in her, but used various emblems to bestow her divine power - that is, any devotee of the god could always ask for help through the emblem of 'Reaibet', and there was no need to change the faith, as long as sufficient respect for the goddess - It could be a pile of gold coins, or a crystal nucleus of a demonic beast, or even a desert lizard that is difficult to catch, in short, as long as you fill the scale of the mysterious sink on the emblem with a little price, you can get the help of the goddess, just like these people activated the 'guardian emblem' just now.

Karnt was even surprised to learn that the big tree in front of him, which would bear abundant fruits, and the clear spring water under the tree, were actually the products of the emblem of the goddess 'Rui Aibet', and relying on the emblems of this mysterious goddess with different functions, these travelers in front of him could easily cross the entire wooden desert with them with some inferior magic cores hunted from the wind sheep!

“......”

The old man let out a long breath and felt his heart beat fast. Looking back, the refugees had unconsciously approached each other, and at the moment they were all eagerly gazing at the several emblems hanging on the waist of the robed man opposite, and their eyes were constantly passing over the fruit-bearing canopy and the clear and attractive pool water, it seemed that there was no need to negotiate at all, and the wishes of all the refugees had been highly unified.

"Dear traveler, if we can, we would like to borrow your emblem to show our respect to the Goddess and gain her mercy. ”

After arranging his clothes, Karnt made a formal request with a serious expression. This is also the cunning of the old man, now the two sides are very strange, if he makes a begging appearance, he may be insulted and bullied, and saying very formal words like this will make the other party subconsciously put the two sides in a more equal position.

"No problem at all. ”

However, the thug-looking man on the other side seemed to be very keen to spread the faith of Raybet, and when he heard this, he smiled happily, and immediately asked the robed man beside him to take off a goddess insignia and hand it to Kant: "Ryatebet is the protector of all the weak, as long as you show enough respect, you can get the protection of the goddess - the goddess is so merciful, you can even owe debts first!"

Kaant, who took the goddess's emblem with both hands, and after asking how to use it, turned and handed it to the old camel Shaku, and told him to experiment with the refugees, while he remained with the travelers, accosting him without saying a word.

However, his caution proved to be superfluous, and the men on the other side were not interested in them at all, one of the shorter young men climbed up the tree and crossed his legs to pick fruit to eat, the shortest one kept his head down, not knowing what he was looking at, and the only non-human of the five, the large orc, who knew that he was powerful at first glance, had already slipped back into his sleeping bag and slept again without even looking at the old man.

"Oh my God!"

"Miracles, real miracles!"

"Woooooooooo......oo Great......"

There was a sudden burst of cheers from the refugees, and Karnt ran over in good spirits and eagerly, and when they parted the crowd, he saw a sparkling sparkle of soul.

"This is made of the emblem?"

The old man barely suppressed his excitement and eagerly grabbed Shaku and asked.

"Yes. ”

The old camel man is also in the midst of a shock. has struggled at the bottom all his life, but he didn't expect to be able to see miracles at such an old age. Just now, a few refugees gathered a few leftover wild fruits, and promised to give a rich gift of thanks after leaving the desert, and the scale on the emblem was full, and then from the feet of the promised refugees, clear spring water rushed out of the gravel, and soon formed a pool of water that was enough for everyone to drink and even bathe.

"Thank you to the merciful goddess Reibet!"

The refugees who had just made the bold promise of a future thank-you gift sincerely bowed to the emblem. This goddess is indeed merciful, he is a staunch believer in the neutral god 'God of Fate' Fitmaster, and just now the goddess did not care about the belonging of the faith, and generously responded to his promise to give help, which he was very grateful.

Many refugees knelt down behind him, and even the old camel man solemnly bent his lame leg and rubbed his narrow mouth on the sand with the etiquette of a camel.

"I don't know how to thank you, strange traveler. ”

Excitedly, Kahnt returned to the men under the tree and bowed, and then said with some embarrassment: "Can you transfer this emblem to us...... We don't have any money now, but I swear in the honor of a soldier that I will—"

"You don't need to take our emblem. ”

Before the old man could finish his words, the robed man interrupted him with a smile, and then he took another insignia of the goddess from his waist, and then took out an old piece of brass and a few ordinary pieces of wood from his bosom and piled them in front of the emblem, and softly recited the phrase, 'Please the goddess grant us mercy,' and under the surprised gaze of Karnt, the emblem emitted a faint glow, and the brass and wood were twisted and mixed together as if they had melted, and when they were set again, they had become an identical emblem.

"As long as there is enough copper and wood, the emblem itself can produce more emblems. ”

The robed man smiled and handed the new emblem to the old man, his black eyes as kind as the warm night sky.

......

"The emblem can be copied by itself, which is a shrewd key design. ”

Looking at the gradually smaller figure in the long yellow sand, Fio grabbed a few fruits and jumped down, chatting casually: "A little copper and a few pieces of rotten wood are not worth much, so those who are skeptical will definitely bring one with them for backup after trying it, and it won't cost a few dollars anyway...... Brother, you really have some unexpected ideas. ”

"Very clever design indeed...... However, these costs will have to be paid in advance from the energy of the conserved gods, and it is estimated that there will be a period of pure expenditure, so we need to be prepared for this. ”

Linax nodded approvingly. He was the happiest at Doug's gradual display of skill, and the sooner the god of conservation became stronger, the sooner he would meet Lorna Saidis.

"There won't be a lot to lose. After all, the mission targets the 'weak', and at first they ask for some very easy help. ”

Doug smiled confidently and shook his head. Since comprehending a trace of the true meaning of the law of conservation, his whole temperament has undergone subtle changes, and he looks more like a strong man; at the same time, his manipulation of divine power has also reached a higher level, and the emblem system magic that he just showed to those refugees in the name of Rui Aibet was created by him himself, coupled with the technical support from the two major magic systems of Linax and Fifian, he successfully established a new branch system of conservation gods. These insignia-based magics covertly borrow the power of the conserved gods to fulfill the wishes of the prators, and because they are based on the magical system of 400 years later, other gods cannot identify the source of their divine power through emblems.

Of course, none of this really has to be so 'gratuitous'. When the praying person receives 'help', a certain amount of soul energy will be quietly collected, and if the worldly intelligent beings take refuge in 'Reaibet' at that time, the power of faith of these new believers will be secretly transferred to the Lord God Doug.

The first reason was to better implement the 'Reibet Revival Project', but in essence, it was a covert missionary experiment to gain experience in the operation of a new sect that would be established through the 'Star Box' network in the future.

"Well, after so many performances, the effect is almost the same. ”

When the figure on the horizon was completely invisible, Doug flicked his fingers at random, and the trees and pools disappeared in an instant, filling the original ground as if it had never changed: "In that case, Fifian, I think we should go to the Dark Realm and carry out that larger plan." ”

"Huh?"

“...... Damn, you turn that thing off for me!".
