Chapter 204: Evolution

Seeing the mayor's fat-covered figure disappear, Chen Heng fell into thought.

According to the rules of this world, if the unlucky predecessors before him recorded correctly, every time an outsider enters, it is the beginning of the trial and the time for the chapter of the demon king to begin.

And the omen of the opening of the Demon King chapter is nothing else, it is the growth of monsters that begin to appear outwards and attack the people of the outside world.

A person's ultimate achievement certainly depends on his own efforts, but also on the background of the times.

If the people do not suffer, how can they need heroes?

So whenever a trial begins, it must be when the monsters grow and appear explosively.

Then there is the soil in which the brave appear.

And now in this situation, it's almost time for the Demon King chapter to begin.

Only when the demon king recovers, the monster will come out of the dense forest and attack the people in the outside world.

If you think about it from this aspect, the demon king has appeared, is the warrior still far away?

Maybe it won't take long for the time for Chen Heng to appear.

Chen Heng thought so in his heart, and stepped aside thoughtfully.

Next, he also helped the mayor to suppress the monsters in the outside world.

Of course, he didn't do it himself.

For such a long time, the mercenary group that spent so much money to raise was not raised in vain.

Usually eat and drink well, but it's not for them to be the uncle.

Use it when it's time to use it.

It didn't take Chen Heng to do it himself, just those mercenaries easily blocked the monsters outside the town.

Of course, as for those outside the town, there is nothing you can do.

After all, the town has small city walls, and it is quite perfect in all aspects.

Nowhere else is that possible.

As for Chen Heng's words, he didn't come forward many times during the whole process, and most of the time, he still came forward to make a speech, took out some things and distributed them to those refugees.

It's not that he suddenly has a good heart, it's just that it is necessary to gain the power of faith.

The power of faith must be acquired with a specific goal.

If you don't come forward, even if others appreciate you, they don't know which one is their benefactor.

Therefore, it is necessary to come forward.

Let others do the fighting, killing and killing, Chen Heng only needs to appear a few times at the critical moment, and it is enough.

Time flies slowly.

In a flash, more than half a month passed.

For most of the time, the whole town has changed a lot.

All around was a stream of refugees pouring in from outside.

It's surprising to say.

Before this disaster, no one knew that there were so many people living around the town.

These people were originally hidden in all corners of the town, and many villages were even located on the edge of the dense forest, which was naturally difficult to find.

In the past, these villages were very independent, and they didn't do much other than the occasional visit to the town and exchange some goods at the market.

This time, when disaster came, all of these people fell with blood mold.

Those crazy monsters don't recognize people, and they kill people one by one, and they can't even explain the reason.

And it's no wonder.

After all, people are monsters, and eating and killing people is their business, as for reasoning, this is not within the scope of application of others.

Therefore, the people outside the whole town fell into the blood mold, and all of them ran into the town.

If there were so many more people in the town in normal times, the mayor of the town would probably be happy to death.

But at this time, he could only frown.

The reason is simple.

There is no food.

The local agriculture in the town is not bad, but in the past, it was too dependent on the resources in the dense forest, and it was a trade-oriented town, and the local agricultural production was only self-sufficient at best, not very rich.

Now that the outside world is in such chaos, it is obviously impossible to continue farming, and everyone can only live on their own food reserves.

The days were already tense, and now there are so many people rushing over.

People are indeed valuable assets, but only if they can be used in production.

If you can't, you just leave it there for nothing, it's called a waste of food.

That's the way it is now.

Obviously, it is impossible to continue farming.

Most of the victims fled and had limited food on them.

The inventory of a small number of victims has bottomed out.

And what happens when people can't fill their stomachs?

Obviously not going to be a good thing.

Because of this, the mayor is very anxious at the moment.

During this time, he ran everywhere, and he lost some weight, and he looked much slimmer than before.

This thing has the effect of losing weight, which is really rare.

For the mayor's anxiety, Chen Heng just watched.

Although he knew that the other party would find him sooner or later.

But until then, he just looked at it.

Of course, he didn't do nothing in the middle of this.

Some preparations have already been made.

Just wait for things to start.

The subsequent development was similar to what Chen Heng envisioned.

In desperation, the mayor finally came to the door.

However, Chen Heng didn't speak as well as before this time, and gave something casually to pass away.

It's basically the same as everyone else.

But the mayor can't say anything about it.

Now that food is scarce, the price of ordinary wheat is rising, and it is unrealistic to expect people to come up with grain to fill this hole.

Being able to come up with something to some extent already represents support.

In fact, he didn't think about going to help the victims, and this time he just came to ask for support.

Only with the support of the local gangsters can he let go next.

And Chen Heng's statement was undoubtedly regarded by him as a statement.

So in the next step, he began to operate.

A large number of town guards patrolled around and began to drive away the refugees.

They don't allow the refugees to enter the town, they want to kick them all out.

Even in the process, it is necessary to take away the last bit of what others have left.

Around the town, conflicts continue to erupt, and it looks like a strife.

But in this regard, the mayor obviously does not care.

A group of ordinary people who have neither weapons, nor food, nor organization are nothing to him.

As long as the other local forces support him, he is not afraid of anything.

The incident lasted for some time, and a large number of people were driven out.

Resentment is boiling, fermenting.

Chen Heng is located in his own manor, and he can feel this unique power.

This is also a kind of power of faith, but it is a little different in nature from the power of faith he has obtained before, and it is negative.

If you are blessed with the power of this negative belief, you should also be able to become stronger, but you may be affected by your temperament and be distorted unconsciously.

This couldn't help but make Chen Heng fall into thought.

"Could it be that the so-called demon king and the brave man represent different forces of faith?"

Standing in his manor, Chen Heng couldn't help but have this thought in his heart.

Judging from the current situation, the so-called power of faith can produce extraordinary effects in this world, and blessings on people can make people's strength stronger.

So the so-called demon king and the brave man, do they represent different power of faith?

The demon king stirs up chaos and causes despair, representing negative beliefs, while the brave represents hope and the power of positive beliefs?

That doesn't seem to be a problem.

If the speculation is correct, this small world is someone else's experiment after all.

Since it is an experiment, it must be tested for all possibilities.

The demon king and the brave man represent different aspects, representing the two possibilities of the power of faith.

Chen Heng felt that he had found part of the answer.

However, what puzzled him was, in the process of this experiment, what kind of role did an outsider like him represent?

After all, judging from the current situation, this so-called experiment does not seem to need the intervention of an outsider like him at all.

So what is the point of these outsiders entering this world and opening the trial?

"To seek variables?"

In an instant, Chen Heng thought of a possibility.

Seeking variables, this may not be for nothing.

As a wizard, Chen Heng needs to add some variables when he does experiments by himself, so as to test different results.

Is this the same with this small world? The purpose of joining these outsiders is to add variables in order to seek different experimental results?

The answer to this question is not possible for Chen Heng to reveal for the time being.

After all, he couldn't ask the arranger of this small world this question.

Being able to arrange such a small world, using such a huge small world as an experimental site for testing, the strength of the arranger of this world is undoubtedly very strong, even if Chen Heng was at his peak, he was far inferior to the other party.

The so-called True Monarch can theoretically open the secret realm, but the secret realm opened up is completely different from the normal world, and it is even more different from the huge small world in front of him.

The other party can do this kind of thing, which is obviously no longer comparable to the true monarch.

Facing this kind of big guy, Chen Heng felt that it was better not to really see the other party.

Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be cool when we meet.

After sitting in the manor for a while, there was a noticeable change in the surroundings.

The most obvious change was that the laughter of the children around him was less, even the old butler's face became serious, and the guards around him became more serious, holding the weapons in their hands at any time.

The change in the surrounding atmosphere is very obvious.

Looking at this scene, Chen Heng nodded.

"Almost......."

Sitting up from a meadow, he looked ahead, his face calm, and the thought flashed through his mind.

In the days that followed, the surrounding situation changed again.

Inside the town, a large number of mercenaries suddenly appeared, and in the stunned eyes of a group of people led by the local mayor, they directly attacked them.

Chen Heng finally intervened.

Under his orders, a large number of mercenaries were directly dispatched to directly eliminate the forces around the mayor.

Subsequently, a large amount of food was taken out to provide relief to the victims.

As a steady stream of food was taken out, the atmosphere of tension and despair was suddenly cleared.

The whole town is calm again, and the surroundings are gradually returning to normal.

The only thing that has changed is that the local principal has changed.

But who cares about that but the guys who are already underground?

Anyway, Chen Heng himself didn't care.

In addition to giving food relief, he sent people to spread the word among the victims, and within a short time, the name of Ed Duowu resounded throughout the town.

Walking along the road, all the victims of the disaster will have a grateful expression on their faces, and they will be grateful from the bottom of their hearts to the person who has brought them hope and new life.

After all, it is to give hope in times of crisis, and no matter how mean and unkind people are, they will always be grateful.

Of course, this is destined to be only temporary.

In half a year at most, this gratitude will completely dissipate, and Chen Heng's influence will be greatly weakened.

Unless, he can continue to bring benefits to this group of people, otherwise the result will inevitably be forgotten.

However, Chen Heng himself didn't care about this.

All he wanted was the power of pure faith that came out of the transition from despair to hope.

As he had thought, when he lifted the victims out of despair, the power of faith born of the desire to survive and hope was incomparably pure and brilliant.

This is the power of faith that is extraordinarily pure, and because of the number of people, it is also extraordinarily large.

To put it bluntly, although this dying power is not as strong as Chen Heng's own, it can also increase his own strength a lot.

Judging from the foundation of his official wizard, it is quite impressive.

This couldn't help but make a thought rise in Chen Heng's heart.

Just the blessing of the power of faith in a small town has such power, so what if it is a city, a country, or even half the world?

And how powerful should it be then?

At this moment, Chen Heng couldn't help but flash this thought.

However, he doesn't really attach much importance to this force.

Although the power of the power of faith is strong enough, it is not one's own after all.

When the power of faith is blessed, it has enough power, but once the power of faith disappears, it will immediately be beaten back to the prototype.

This force is too constrained, and there are too many ways to operate it.

Man's intellect is limited by his own knowledge and can therefore be manipulated by people at a higher level.

If Chen Heng was his enemy, then he had too many ways to make him lose the blessing of this power of faith.

Whether it is to directly slaughter his supporters, or to frame him, it is very easy for his supporters to lose trust and gratitude to him.

Therefore, this force is destined not to be relied upon, but can only be used and observed.

Chen Heng was just holding the idea of observation at the moment.

....................

"There's another town ahead. ”

On the barren path, a group of people rode horses and walked on the road.

The middle-aged man looked at the young man on the other side and said, "In a little while, we will be there." ”

"Good. ”

Next to the middle-aged man, the young man sat on a horse, his face looking a little.

If you look closely, you can find that the young man's age is actually not high, but he is only in his early twenties, and there is still some immaturity between his eyebrows.

He looked very handsome, and his whole person was heroic, and at the moment he had a worried expression on his face, as if he was worried about the distance.

"We have to do it as soon as possible!"

Riding his horse and galloping down the road, the young man gasped for breath, and then said, "The demon plague has broken out, and the town in front should be trapped now. ”

"We have to rush to the rescue as soon as possible. ”

"But..... Your body ......"

Looking at the young man, the middle-aged man's face showed hesitation: "Can you hold on?"

"I'm fine. ”

The young man shook his head, his face was pale, but with a look of unconcealable determination: "If we arrive a little late, more innocent people will be harmed by monsters. ”

"To do this, we need to ....... as soon as possible"

He said this, but his face became even paler as he spoke.

Looking at the young man's appearance, the middle-aged man hesitated a little, but he could only sigh and nod without saying anything.

They made their way on, and soon came to the town in front of them.

But to their surprise, the town in front of them looked very calm.

Outside of the town, there are traces of blood with dried blood on them, only it has dried up.

There are some guards patrolling around, and it looks like they are seriously patrolling the neighborhood.

There seemed to be some traces of monsters around, but most of them were corpses, and there were no living monsters left.

"It's ......"

Looking at this scene, the young man and the middle-aged man couldn't help but be stunned and felt extremely surprised.

They rushed all the way here, originally intending to come to the rescue.

But looking at it, it doesn't seem like there is a need for rescue here.

"It's very well protected. ”

Looking at the town ahead, the middle-aged man was a little surprised.

"Let's go in and have a look. ”

The young man nodded and said, "I don't know who protected this group of innocent people under the demonic disaster. ”

Ahead, I saw the two young men coming, and some guards came to interrogate.

"Are you the ones who came to answer the call?"

"Responding to a call?"

The two young men came with some interest: "What a call." ”

"Mr. Ed is recruiting guards and preparing to launch a siege against the monsters in the vicinity. ”

The guard spoke: "Those who go to the conscription can get a big bounty, are you here to respond to the conscription?"

He saw that both young men were wearing weapons and armor, so he asked.

"Encircle and suppress monsters. ”

Hearing this, the young man's face suddenly became solemn: "It doesn't matter if the bounty or anything, but if you want to encircle and suppress monsters, please count me in!"

Don't want a bounty, just to encircle and suppress monsters?

And such fools?

The guards subconsciously wanted to speak and mock, but they just looked at the other party's appearance and looked at the other party's serious face, but finally paused.

The young man in front of him seems to have some kind of power that can move people's hearts, and when people look at him, they can't help but feel moved and deeply agree with each other's words.

What the other party said, if it is in the mouth of someone else, it may be hypocritical, but if it is said in the mouth of the person in front of him, it seems extremely serious, which makes people awe-inspired.

Inexplicably, some respect rose in the guard's heart, and he didn't say anything, just nodded, and then turned around and led them away.

The people around looked at it and didn't say anything.

During this time, with the issuance of the conscription order, many mercenaries from all around came to enlist, preparing to enter the team to recruit monsters.

In this context, the appearance of the two young men did not seem abrupt and did not cause accidents to others.

Afterwards, they walked into the town.

The scenery of the surroundings is revealed.

Around the town, after a period of repairs, the chaos caused by that time has subsided, and although there are still some traces of it, it is still largely intact.
