What's going on?

Ji Yan looked at the eight people kneeling in front of him with some surprise.

Every step they take, they bow with great joy.

The old man at the head looked at the figure in front of him with obsessive and fanatical eyes, his bright eyes flashing with tears of joy.

They are the most devout believers and have the most sincere devotion to their faith.

For this reason, they did not hesitate to travel thousands of miles to make a pilgrimage, just for today's pilgrimage.

"O messenger, you have finally arrived!"

"All these years, we, we have been doing penance, waiting for you to come and bring the will of the Lord......"

The old man knelt down to the stairs and kissed the ground gently, as if expressing his excitement.

When Ji Yan saw this kind of scene, he lost his mind for a while, and he was vaguely familiar.

Later, after hearing the old man's silent words, he suddenly realized.

It turned out to be a believer in a certain god.

It is estimated that it should be the breath unintentionally released by one of his own accounts that will attract these believers.

Then they treat themselves, who exude the breath of God, as messengers from the Lord.

Ji Yan's mind quickly flashed with the cause and effect.

After all, this kind of thing is relatively familiar.

His gaze returned to the eight people in front of him, and he was speechless for a moment.

After all, now they are exactly like those wandering beggars.

No one will feel wrong with taking a worn-out bowl and begging.

Well......

This is the first time Ji Yan has seen such a shabby believer.

After all, the believers I have encountered in the past, not to mention the problem of means.

Whether it is abduction, coercion, or demagoguery......

They can at least make themselves live a nourishing life.

Almost every order is thriving among the people, and there are nobles or wealthy merchants behind it.

And the believers we see now, which god do they believe in?

Ji Yan kept speculating in his heart, but he couldn't find any signs.

After all, no matter how poor the Order is, it is not so poor.

In the face of the excited and fanatical gazes of several believers, he was a little tempted to ask about their identities.

But in the end, he just smiled, and then motioned for them to come in.

After all, there are already some people who are looking at this side suspiciously.

When they entered the courtyard, they didn't even need Ji Yan's initiative to ask, they revealed their identities.

From their mouths, they learned that the eight people who existed were all followers of the Winter Lord, and they were also the only few people left in the Winter Order.

Others either opted out or died of old age.

Because the faith of the new gods was constantly crowded, no new blood was injected for many years.

This has also led to the fact that the Winter Order, which used to be huge, now has only so few people left.

Ji Yan listened quietly, and then he was a little stunned.

He estimated that the last time he responded to the call, he had the breath of the Lord of Winter on his body, and the old man would feel it.

As for the believers of the Lord of Winter, the impression in his memory is somewhat similar to that of the dervishes of the previous life.

It is mainly based on hard cultivation and forging the mind.

Thinking of this, Ji Yan looked at the old man who told him about his predicament.

Traces from the wind and sand and sun-scorched skin were clearly visible on his body.

The shriveled muscles seemed to have lost most of their moisture, and the thin figure seemed to be supported only by a faith in his heart.

This situation of the old man did not only appear in him, but also in the seven people behind him.

After Ji Yan learned about the life of the believer of the Lord of Winter, he couldn't stop a desire to complain in his heart.

Is it possible that there is a small part of the reason because you are practicing too hard now, so it is difficult to recruit new people to come in.

My foolish believers, times have changed.

Although the pre-emption of the faith of the new gods is an important reason, it is difficult for many people to endure the ascetic life.

Perhaps those who come out of this way are the most loyal and fanatical devout believers.

But if the old man really wants to revitalize and carry forward the belief of the Lord of Winter and adapt to the times, it is also extremely important to change his concept.

The pursuit of quality is not the best way for expansion and development.

However, thinking of the appearance of the Lord of Winter's faith everywhere before, and seeing that there are only a few people left in the Winter Order now, I can't help but sigh.

Ji Yan quietly listened to the old man's narration, and saw that there was not much resentment in his eyes for those who couldn't hold on until now, and he could only say that his mood was really good.

Perhaps these followers of the Lord of Winter are very self-explanatory.

Having gone through many hardships, they have a strong tolerant heart and a tolerant and benevolent attitude.

As long as you don't step on their bottom line, you won't easily arouse their anger.

Isn't this an honest man?

To be honest, Ji Yan is quite pleased with this, after all, it is rare for a few believers to be good people.

So he praised everyone for this attitude and continued to work hard.

And when they heard the messenger's affirmation of themselves, they were overjoyed and excited.

It was so excited that it seemed that the traces left by the whole body after going through thousands of tribulations were about to burst out with fresh blood, and there was a faint redness on the face.

Over the years, he and his companions have always insisted on a consistent ascetic life, always maintaining the purity and steadfastness of their faith.

Even in the face of the spurning of outsiders, some companions are incomprehensible......

He didn't waver from start to finish.

Because faith is everything in one's life, the meaning of life.

It is like a spear, running through its entire life.

No complaints, no remorse.

And now the affirmation from the messenger seems to have drawn a successful end to all this.

He has no regrets in this life!

With a high spirit, he knelt down again towards the venerable messenger, and the two hands placed in front of him trembled visibly to the naked eye.

The old man opened his mouth for a long time before finally uttering hoarse words.

"Praise be to my Lord and praise to the messenger!"

And the seven people behind him also followed him, saluting respectfully and reverently to Ji Yan with excitement.

"Praise be to my Lord and praise to the messenger!"

Seeing this, Ji Yan's hand pressed down, and the eight people also quieted down.

But the silent words are like the trickling blood of the heart to the whole body.

The emaciated body seemed to be full of strength.

Seeing this, Ji Yan couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

For the hearts of such people, it is so easy to buy.

You don't even need to put the benefits in front of you, just a little verbal encouragement at the right time to arouse loyalty in their hearts.

"Honorable messenger, what can we do for you?"

They looked up, their eyes clear and bright, with some expectation, as if they were expecting to do something for the messenger.

Even if it's just a little bit.

"You're doing a great job, please keep it up."

Ji Yan said softly, and then casually swayed a few traces of power into their bodies.

That's the power that belongs to the Lord of Winter.

Under the influence of this force, their lean muscles suddenly became full at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The dark, rough skin also quickly fades away the dead skin and regains its original radiance.

Their emaciated bodies have also returned to the state of normal people, no longer as if they could be blown away by a gust of wind.

The old man didn't expect that one day, he would receive a gift from the messenger!

And it's clearly the power of the Lord!

He felt his heart tremble violently, as if it were about to burn out!

"Praise be to my Lord and praise to the messenger!"

They chanted over and over again, with a look of increasing enthusiasm in their eyes.

"O noble messenger, what should we do with the faith of the new gods?"

A younger man, as if he had thought of something, leaned over and asked.

"New Gods ......"

Ji Yan read softly, and then a chill flashed in his eyes.

"I believe that the faith of the Lord will save the wretched people who have fallen into the lost, and spread the great faith throughout the North."

Hearing this, the faces of the eight people were convinced, as if they were marveling at the kindness of the messenger.

"But now, I'm going to tell you how to understand the Lord's doctrine in another way, so that it can be more quickly and easily brought into the arms of the Lord......

Ji Yan then changed the topic and said in a soft voice, and then began to discuss with the Winter Order with a smile.

】

……

The estate of the Arendelle family.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!"

A voice of urgency and excitement suddenly sounded in the hall.

"The messenger is back!"

On the smooth marble, Ashley turned his head as he paced, his bloodshot eyes staring at the debriefer.

Perhaps because of disbelief, his voice took on a trill.

"What did you say!"

"Make ...... The messenger is back! ”

The man saw Ashley's fierce look as if he was about to eat people, and his body couldn't help but tremble with fright.

"The messenger is back!?"

"My lord, it's back, I saw it with my own eyes."

"It's really good, I just said that with the strength of the envoy, how could there be an accident?"

Ashley kept patting his chest, breathing a sigh of relief, and then a smile erupted into his pale face.

Ever since he learned that the messenger had gone to capture Elsie through the teleportation circle, he hadn't returned for a long time.

His heart was already like an ant on a hot pot, so anxious that he didn't know what to do.

In addition, the teleportation circle they were using seemed to be in disrepair, and after using it twice, it was completely damaged.

So now he could only stare at this dry stare.

Suddenly, when he heard the news of the messenger's return, Ashley's body seemed to collapse, and sweat couldn't help but wet his clothes.

"Quick! Take me to see it! ”

Following in the footsteps of his subordinates, two familiar figures soon appeared in Ashley's sight.

One was the messenger, and the other was his niece, Elsi.

At this moment, Elsie's eyes were dark, as if she had lost her highlights, and her face was blank, like a quiet doll.

However, Ashley only glanced at his niece, and turned to the messenger with a smile on his face.

"Messenger, you're finally back, huh, the others...... This? ”

"Huh?"

The man seemed to be at a loss.

"Like my nephew and a maid......

"They're all dead."

The man replied with some stiffness.

Ashley felt that the messenger in front of him seemed a little strange, but there was not much doubt in his heart.

Believers, they're all a little nervous.

I don't know which sentence will provoke them.

But they're all dead......

A gleam of joy flashed in Ashley's eyes, so that there would be no one to compete with him for the position of head of the family.

"My lord, since the Holy Maiden has returned, then the agreement between us ......"

The man was slightly silent, which suddenly made Ashley's heart sink and he couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

When he was thinking about whether the envoy was planning to tear up the agreement, he nodded slowly and said indifferently.

"It's business as usual."

"That's good, that's good......"

Ashley's heart finally let go, and after a few greetings, he found that the messenger seemed to be in a normal mood, and then withdrew very knowingly.

Only the messenger and Elsie were left in the room.

The man sighed softly when he saw Ashley's figure disappear.

Alas, he was brought in for free to be a strong man again.

Christine kept scolding in her heart.

Yes, this messenger is a fake.

It's a puppet, disguised by Christine.

After pulling Alice to study the breath, he was pulled over by Ji Yan to be a tool man.

When I go back later, I will definitely ask him to make amends for himself!

Christine couldn't help but complain in her heart.

Even if you let people do things, it's not so for nothing.

Gotta add money!

But although there are some complaints in her heart, she still plays the way of this body in a regular manner.

And Elsie still seemed to be a puppet, lifeless, motionless.

Christine glanced casually, a little worried in her heart.

It's not really going to be broken.

But she didn't care about this girl out of her own personality, just let her stay in the house like this.

After all, it is also necessary to rely on the identity of Elsie to attract people to participate in the sacrifice.

If something goes wrong in the middle, otherwise how will Ji Yan catch it all at that time.

But the state of the girl ......

But as long as I have no morality, then I will not be condemned by the heart.

Christine was in a mood and went out with a calm face.

Although she used the spells of the afterlife to obtain some information from the unspeakable body, it was not all.

So she now needs to go out and secretly gather the rest of the information.

However, Christine is not worried about the exposure of this identity.

Because they managed to transfer the indescribable breath, that is, the breath of the new god, into this puppet.

For Alice, this kind of thing only takes a certain amount of time to operate.

So as long as the aura on Christine's body hasn't changed now, then when she doesn't take action to cross this identity, she won't be suspected by others.

After all, having the breath of the new god on his body is equivalent to being certified, and no one will doubt a professionally certified fake.

Even if it does look wrong.
