Chapter 808: The Whole City Mobilizes (II)
"The lord of the castle has come out!"
I don't know who was sharp-eyed, and was the first to spot Su Hong's figure, and then everyone who was about to turn around and leave turned around one after another, bowing to Su Hong and saluting, expressing their gratitude with their actual actions.
If they still had some doubts in their hearts before, then after Su Hong fulfilled his promise and formulated a complete set of city rules and regulations in such a short period of time, and set up a city monument, they suddenly swept away the doubts in their hearts and felt unprecedented steadfastness and peace of mind.
In addition, integrating their own blood into the city monument is not only a ritual for them, but also a kind of spiritual sustenance, from the moment their blood is absorbed by the city monument and appears on the monument, each of them naturally links their fate with the city of dawn, and begins to truly regard this place as their home.
And all of this was brought by Su Hong, and it was precisely because of this that the people who had rekindled their hope and motivation for life were full of gratitude to Su Hong and supported their city lord from the bottom of their hearts.
"What is this?"
With the help of the heart of the city in the sea of eyebrows, Su Hong was stunned to see countless golden points of light flying out of the bodies of everyone in the square, slowly rising into the air, and finally converging into a long golden band of light, lingering around him.
"Master, this is the power of faith, the more people who believe in you, the more power of faith will be condensed, and over time, it will reach a very terrifying point, if you absorb it into your body, your own strength will be greatly enhanced, and one day you will achieve the position of a god." Daybreak Blood Nest opened its mouth in response.
"It turns out that this is the power of faith, but although this thing is good, it is not my way." Hearing this, Su Hong's heart couldn't help but move slightly, now he really urgently needs to improve his strength, and these powers of faith will undoubtedly provide him with some help, but after thinking about it seriously and calmly, he finally shook his head and vetoed this tempting idea.
Because he had promised his predecessors that he would carry forward the heroic bloodline power of the god warriors and become the strongest berserker, if he absorbed the power of these beliefs, then he would be no different from those gods who kept believers in captivity in their own divine space.
What's more, Su Hong doesn't want to have any personality cult, let alone convert everyone into fanatical believers for his own selfishness.
After thinking for a while, Su Hong quickly made a decision, stretched out his hand, and directly extracted the golden light belt that lingered around him, and fused into the monument of the city, as if planting a seed, all the power of faith in the city of dawn in the future will gather here, and gradually take root.
"Everyone should have their own life, joys and sorrows, instead of pinning their future and destiny on the ethereal gods, it is better to be self-reliant, try to control their own destiny, and let the city monument witness all this! As for me, I just want to be your city lord. Su Hong smiled slightly and whispered to himself.
Although he lost a great opportunity to become a god, Su Hong did not feel a pity, because once he truly absorbed the power of faith into his body, he would embark on another path from then on, and he could only improve his strength by increasing the number of believers and stimulating the fanaticism in his heart, which was not what he wanted.
Seeing this, the Dawn Blood Nest didn't say much, quite agreeing with Su Hong's choice, although due to the serious damage, its soul memory was missing a lot of things, but it vaguely remembered that the previous master had mentioned the power of faith, saying that the gods achieved by absorbing the power of faith seemed to be powerful, but in fact they were completely vulnerable, because they didn't understand the true meaning of battle at all, let alone comprehend and control the power of the rules of heaven and earth.
After this unexpected episode, Su Hong took a deep breath, gathered his chaotic thoughts, and then smiled at everyone present: "I know everyone must be thinking about how to earn city contribution points, don't worry, now I will officially announce the first city lord order of our Dawning City, that is, mining!" ”
After a pause, he continued: "I will mark a vein map for everyone when I go back, you can go in a team by yourself, and every time you dig a spar, you can exchange a city contribution value, and if someone finds a new spar vein, after verification, you can directly get a thousand city contribution points!" ”。
"Long live the lord of the castle!"
As Su Hong's words fell, the city center square suddenly resounded with a tsunami-like cheer, everyone was full of energy, some anxious guys didn't even wait for dawn to greet a few familiar brothers and friends, according to the vein marking map given by Su Hong, if you want to dig the first pot of gold, you must know that a little city contribution value can be exchanged for a troll gold coin, in this way, there is no difference between mining and gold mining.
I saw that under Su Hong's mobilization, all the residents of Dawning City were full of great enthusiasm and rushed to the location of the spar vein, including many old and young women and children, who also wanted to contribute to the prosperity and development of Dawning City.
These old and young women and children who do not have much value, no one wants to buy them at all, originally according to the practice of the war slave market, they are generally quietly "disposed of", but Su Hong ignored Kernar's objections, and insisted on buying a large number of old and young women and children together, in his opinion, only in this way can it be regarded as a complete home, and everyone can live in the city of dawn more down-to-earth.
And even Su Hong himself didn't expect that his unintentional move would be extremely rewarding.
On this day, one tall and one short, one old and one young, the ancestors and grandchildren were wandering in the depths of the hinterland of the keel wilderness, and as far as the eye could see, the surrounding environment was filled with a desolate and dead silence, and from time to time there was a terrifying dead gray mist surging over, almost wanting to engulf them.
"Grandpa, I'm scared ......," said a childish boy who grabbed the sleeve of the old man's arm tightly and said in a trembling voice.
"Haha, isn't our little Zimo often prides himself on being a man? If you don't even have this courage, how can you become a real man, and inherit the mantle of my grandfather and me, and become a miner? The old man laughed heartily, stretched out his calloused hand and gently stroked the little man's head, his expression full of love.
"Grandpa, I don't want to be a miner anymore, I want to be like the city lord, become a real hero, and protect grandpa and everyone in the future!" The little boy beat his little chest vigorously to give himself courage.
"Oh, then you'll have to work harder, grandpa is waiting for the day when my good grandson will become a big hero!" The old man replied with a smile, and at the same time a pair of slightly cloudy but sharp eyes searched for something, bending down from time to time to look down at the bare rock textures on the ground, or grabbing a handful of soil, crushing it with his fingers, feeling it carefully, and then shaking his head slightly.
"Grandpa, still haven't you found anything?" Xiao Zimo couldn't help but ask with some disappointment.
"Silly boy, how can the spar vein be so easy to find, I think when my grandfather and I were young, I shuttled between the poor mountains and bad waters alone, and walked through countless mountains, so I finally found a spar vein, the mineral deposit is called a rich ah......" The old man said with a smile, as soon as the stubble opened, he suddenly couldn't hold it back.
"Grandpa, as the saying goes, a good man doesn't mention the courage of the year, I have heard about your glorious deeds many times, and I am about to recite them like a stream, besides, since then, you don't seem to have found other spar veins, right?" Xiao Zimo was drowsy when he heard it, and couldn't help but interrupt.
"Well...... hey, you little guy wants to make grandpa rebel before he grows up? You know, only by discovering a spar vein can you earn the title of geominer, and that's a lifetime achievement! The old man's face was red, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and then he became angry, stretched out his hand to the little boy's smooth forehead, and struck a chestnut hard.
Xiao Zimo, who was in pain, rubbed his forehead vigorously, his little mouth pouted high, and just when he was about to protest loudly, his stomach made a burst of intestinal sounds, and he took the lead in protesting and rebelling.
"Hungry, huh? Then rest in place and start eating! The old man said with a smile, and found a large smooth stone, and the grandfather and grandson talked and laughed, and ate a simple but very fulfilling lunch.
However, although the old man's mood looked good and he was always smiling, when the little boy was not paying attention, a touch of worry flashed in his eyes, not worried about himself, but worried that Xiao Zimo, who had lost his parents since he was a child, would not be able to take care of himself after his death, and his life would become difficult and destined to suffer a lot.
It is precisely because of this that he resolutely took Xiao Zimo out this time, one is to respond to the call of the city lord to see if he can exert some residual heat, with the experience accumulated in the past, to contribute his own strength to the city of dawn, and the other purpose is that if he can find a spar vein, then with the rich reward of the city lord, even if he dies in the future, Xiao Zimo does not have to worry about his future livelihood.
It's just that as he said, the hedron vein is not so easy to find, plus this is a dragon bone wilderness, an extremely mysterious forbidden area of life, few people have set foot here, and many of his past experiences are useless, so that their ancestors and grandchildren have been searching for five or six days, but they have never found anything.
And just when he himself was a little discouraged, he was shocked to see Xiao Zimo jumping not far in front of him suddenly bent down and picked up a stone from the ground, as if holding a small glowing sun, flowing with dazzling divine light.
