Chapter 29, Integrating into the Statue
This hero does not refer to heroes in the ordinary sense, but heroes who are honored by gods. They will be given divinity by gods and thus promoted to half-human and half-gods.
This is similar to those demigods in Greek mythology. They are all gods' thugs, and those demons are their stepping stones.
In fact, Jia Kedao had already discovered a little problem when he carefully looked at such books.
In this world ruled by gods, books are certainly the carriers for spreading culture, but from another perspective it is also a tool for praising and praising the gods.
In this way, although the demons introduced in those books are truly ferocious and bloodthirsty demons, some of them are probably not real demons, but visitors from other worlds who are hostile to gods.
They may have no evil deeds like Jia Kedao, but for some unspeakable reasons, the gods have designated them as demons, thus suffering the pursuit of the entire human world.
"Why don't you go to the kingdom of God?"
Jia Kedao thought for a while and asked, the kingdom of God he mentioned was naturally a kingdom created by the gods of the wilderness.
Seeing Jia Kedao asking, an elderly man crawled out from the souls, and did not dare to look up at Jia Kedao. He lowered his head and replied: "Great existence, I pray to God every day to contribute the fattest lamb to the temple, but when disaster strikes, there is no God's salvation."
As the elderly spoke, the remaining souls also spoke one by one.
These souls spoke extremely fast, but Jia Kedao could still hear it clearly. After a while, he understood.
It turns out that the records in that book are not entirely true.
It is not wrong to believe in a god, and then you can reach the Pure Land after death and enter the Kingdom of God to enjoy happiness forever, but not every believer has such an opportunity.
Only the most pious or clergy among believers can be accessed into the kingdom of God by God.
According to the description of these souls, there was an altar priest in the town who was killed by a cavalry, and the soul he formed was taken away by a god who fell from the sky.
Hearing this, Jia Kedao became secretly alert. There was no doubt that in a place surrounded by a god's faith, the gods would always have various ways to find out some things. Fortunately, he did not risk entering the town that day, otherwise he would have a very likely encounter with the god envoy.
After thinking for a while, Jia Kedao nodded, pointed to the statue of the strongman, and said, "You can temporarily attach to the statue and wait for it to be processed later."
With Jia Kedao's finger, a faint white light appeared on the statue of the strongman.
Those souls felt how warm the white light was, making them unknowingly look towards them
This white light seems to ordinary people to feel nothing, but when it falls on the souls, it is like a hot spring in the cold winter.
As the white light continued to shine, these souls, which were originally incomplete, became somewhat complete.
Without any hesitation, these souls quickly devoted themselves to the statue one by one. In a moment, only the older man before Jia Kedao was left in front of him.
Jia Kedao looked at the soul with some confusion. Seeing Jia Kedao's gaze shifting, the elderly couldn't help but sweat beads all over his body. After the sweat beads were flowing down, they immediately floated in the air.
For these souls, Jia Kedao's eyes were like the scorching sun to the snow. Just staring at them could cause some damage to them. If it weren't for the white light, just staring at Jia Kedao's eyes for a few minutes, the soul might be scattered.
This is because spirits like the soul are afraid of those with strong qi and blood or those with evil spirits.
Since ancient times, there has never been a general on the battlefield who died by evil spirits.
Of course, just relying on gaze can damage the soul body, which shows that Jia Kedao's body is so strong that the qi and blood in his body are so strong.
Seeing that the elderly man sweated heavily on his soul, Jia Kedao understood this and couldn't help but look slightly squinting away from the elderly man.
When Jia Kedao's eyes avoided, the elderly couldn't help but relax. The feeling of barbecuing in the past disappeared. He did not dare to hesitate at this time and hurriedly said something.
It turns out that this elderly person is the mayor of a small town.
In such a sparsely populated place, the mayor of the town was originally a respected elder, and he grabbed his beard and eyebrows, and took on the tax collection, safety and other work in the town.
What the mayor of this town said was that when the desert thugs attacked the town, he arranged for some residents to hide in a nearby valley. Now that the town is destroyed, the residents have a home and it is difficult to return.
The mayor of the town hopes that Jia Kedao can take in and protect the residents. Of course, if Jia Kedao is unwilling, then he will tell the residents and let them take refuge in Lion City.
Hearing this, Jia Kedao couldn't help but smile bitterly. The Lion City may have been captured for several days. Wouldn't these residents fall into the trap in the past? Besides, how could he have the spare time to take in and protect these residents?
But just when Jia Kedao wanted to refuse, he suddenly thought of something and nodded to the promise that the mayor of the town would accept the request.
After receiving Jia Kedao's promise, the mayor of the town showed a gratifying smile on his face. After that, he no longer hesitated, he turned around and threw himself into the statue.
All the souls were thrown into the statue, and the gray scarf seemed to be affected by this and could not maintain its existence. In a blink of an eye, it disintegrated and turned into hundreds of residual souls, attracted by the white light and threw themselves into the statue.
As the remnant souls scattered from the gray scarf force were also thrown into the statue, and the white light it scattered was a little brighter than before.
Jia Kedao was a little surprised by this. After all, all ghosts were integrated into statues. He had never seen such things before. If those ghosts dared to integrate into statues in ancient Earth, they would probably be counterattacked by the statues at the first time and turned into ashes.
And here is another world, and some strange and unusual things happen, which are more normal.
Next, Jia Kedao did not waste time and took the statue into his backpack. He called Audis who had been resting for a while, carved a wooden sign for the cemetery and left the cemetery.
With the news from the mayor, the traces of the town survivors were easily found by Audis.
Although this kind of pursuit of traces is the specialty of those thieves in this other world, Audis is a swordsman in the Lion City, who has been on the battlefield and fought monsters. So shortly after leaving the town, he searched for some traces of the army on a path that was about to be covered with weeds.
