List of strange talismans

Chapter 47 Confidence
In this inspiring declaration, the faces of the men gradually changed.

Galanz is indeed a barren and backward town, but the people here have once had glory.

History turns blood into medals and keeps them in the home of every Galanz person.

It may be a broken sword, or a half armor, or it may be recorded in the genealogy, a name that once opened up the land.

Time wears away memory, and wind and sand cover up glory.

These warriors who once frightened the surrounding kingdoms were forced to move to the borders of the kingdom to open up the so-called wasteland just because of a bill of the Congress.

No one knows why Congress has sent so many able-bodied fighters to this backwater.

They could have lived more honorably, and their children and grandchildren should have enjoyed the blessings of their parents.

Soldiers take obedience to orders as their bounden duty. This belief has brought countless people to Galanz with their families, but their efforts have never been rewarded.

Up to now, even the homeland on which to live will be destroyed by an indiscriminate disaster.

Why?
Just because you are superior?
Just what kind of goddamn saint are you?
"I am the blade of the weak, not fighting for the Father."

Ma En suddenly heard a voice behind him.

He turned his head and saw a middle-aged man named Kante whispering. As one of the few residents of Galanz who never attended church, Marne still remembered him vividly.

"I am the enemy of the night and burn all suffering."

Someone else sang softly.

Marne remembered that this was a slang song left by the ancestors of the Galanz people.

"I am the light that breaks the dawn, and I want to cut down all injustice."

"I dedicate my blood to this world, just for the long-lost peace."

The low-pitched tunes are like sparks, which spread all over the crowd and turn into singing.

Gu Xiuya saw that many people's eyes were burning with anger and unwillingness.

No one wants to be born as humble as dirt.

They just lack an opportunity, a person who encourages them to fight.

But more people are still numb.

They looked around timidly, with fear and anxiety in their eyes.

Not everyone dares to fight against fate.

Gu Xiuya didn't care about it.

As the instigator, he looked up at the sky, but what he was thinking was completely different from everyone else.

——I was shouting and shouting down here, shooting one after another, making such a big commotion, why didn't you respond?

Did you not find it, or can't move?

"Your Mightiness."

It was Satchett again.

He raised his hand, facing the eyes of the people around him, the 14-year-old boy looked cowardly: "I, I have a question."

Gu Xiuya withdrew his gaze and looked at him: "You said."

"What you said just now inspired me. I want to fight with you, uh, against fate."

The young man's eyes were pure, but his words stammered due to nervousness: "But, I'm just an ordinary person. Can we really defeat an enemy who can fly, rain, and summon floods?"

Yes, how can a man defeat a god?

Even though Gu Xiuya had already explained, many Galanz people like Sachet, who lacked relevant knowledge, were still stubborn and regarded the power beyond cognition as the mighty power of gods.

They could not find a possibility to convince themselves that they would win the next struggle.

This is where the panic comes from.

Gu Xiuya didn't feel displeased about this, on the contrary, he was happy.

Worrying wins is a good thing.This means that many people have already begun to think about the feasibility of this matter, instead of being afraid of the enemy's prestige and not even thinking about it.

They just lack some confidence right now.

And this is what he is good at.

"That's a good question, too."

Gu Xiuya turned his head, looked around, and his eyes fell on a tree not far away from Qingshi Road.

"Can anyone alone bring down that tree?"

he asks.

Everyone looked sideways at the sound, looked at it for a while, and shook their heads one after another.

The tree was so big that it was difficult for two people to embrace it. Its lush branches almost covered half of the street, and its height even surpassed the mayor's mansion.

"Where are five people?"

"Where are ten people?"

Everyone kept shaking their heads.

"Unless tools are used, sir."

Sachter said: "Otherwise such a big tree cannot be knocked down at all."

Gu Xiuya smiled.

"Then, if I can make it fall with my bare hands without losing its life, can this be regarded as the mighty power of a god?"

Everyone did not expect Gu Xiuya to say such a sentence, and it was difficult to confirm it with their own experience for a while, so they couldn't help looking at Ma En who had the most right to speak.

Ma En didn't know what he was thinking, and he had been a little distracted since a few minutes ago.

He didn't come back to his senses until he was pushed by others.

After hearing other people's retelling, he looked at Gu Xiuya suspiciously, and said, "If you can really do this kind of thing, then you can indeed be called a saint."

Gu Xiuya nodded and strode forward.

In the dim light of the fire, his spine twisted violently, and the entangled flesh and blood quickly turned into a snake shape.

The power of the ignorant boa constrictor gushed out in an instant, rushing towards its limbs and bones.

As a result, Gu Xiuya's entire body became stronger.He stretched out his hand, and saw something swelled under the skin, they spread in the blood vessels, greedily enjoying the rare freedom, and gradually began to be presumptuous.

puff.

A tiny tentacle dug out the pores and grew out.It swayed in the breeze, dancing with the fine hair beside it, as if thinking that it was also a fine hair.

Gu Xiuya sighed at the stupidity of this thing.

He tore off the tentacles expressionlessly, crushed them under his fingertips, and then reached out to touch the tree trunk.

The heat flowed with the thoughts, rushed to the fingertips, and plunged into the big tree.

Just like what he did with tap water, this time, he transferred the heat from his body to a plant.

The hard bark is vulnerable to the erosion of the heat flow, and it loses moisture in an instant, drying up and falling off in pieces.

Gu Xiuya felt a slight tremor in the palm of his hand, and this big tree that had lived for an unknown amount of time suddenly started to move without wind, its branches swaying back and forth, and dropped a large number of leaves.

It is surviving.

Gu Xiuya somehow sensed Dashu's intentions.He hesitated for a while, but did not stop the delivery of the heat flow, instead the speed increased by one point.

After a while, the tree was completely silent.

But soon, it started shaking again, but the amplitude was much softer than before.

It was as if...he was greeting Gu Xiuya.

The life that belonged to plants has already disappeared, replaced by a whole composed of countless tiny tentacles.

Gu Xiuya remembered a small experiment he had done half a month ago in reality, the pot of orchids he had burned.

He used to be an otaku who neglected to take care of plants. The pot of orchids hadn't been watered since he bought them from the flower market. When Gu Xiuya took over, he was already dead.

But it was such a dead plant that was revived by a tentacle and a lump of pork.Dozens of orchids bloomed.

That was the first time Gu Xiuya truly realized how terrifying the things in his body were.
