Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 2244

2244 Gains and Gifts
Some of the Apostles who were watching Lin Yuan were weaker than White Speak. If they tried to attack White Speak and Lin Yuan, he would not have time to inject faith power into White Speak’s body and then wait for White Speak to react.

But Lin Yuan had his reason for doing so.

Firstly, Celestial Sight had already turned into a beautiful button and sat right next to the Source Sand’s amber button on Lin Yuan’s clothes. If there was any danger, Celestial Sight would react immediately. Then, White Speak would not need to protect Lin Yuan.

Secondly, Lin Yuan had already confirmed that the Apostles in the marsh world were not fully familiar with Dictators.

He wanted to test to see how the Apostles would react when they were in the presence of a Dictator.

!!
Although Lin Yuan had established his own territory in the marsh world that he had been developing for the past few months, he was only just starting to focus on the marsh world.

Hence, he still did not have a clear idea of the ways and laws of the marsh world.

The information he could obtain from White Speak was limited as it had been a wandering Apostle. There were many things that he needed to check for himself.

Before White Speak climbed to its feet, numerous Apostles fell to their knees tremblingly in front of Lin Yuan. A thread of faith power extended slightly from each of them toward him.

Lin Yuan had learned from speaking with White Speak that Apostles would offer up their own faith power to Dictators when they wanted to become recognized by a Dictator or join a certain Dictator’s camp.

Faith power was precious energy to Apostles.

When they offered up faith power to Dictators, they hoped that the Dictators would accept it and return the favor with gifts.

The gifts from Dictators always consisted of pure source-type power. Apostles could not obtain such pure source-type power on their own.

The Apostles kneeling in front of Lin Yuan were all nervous. They had no idea how he was going to react.

Lin Yuan had already seen how White Speak and Shadow reacted toward Dictators.

Both of them were no different from obedient puppies, genuinely respectful and faithful. They were like humans who were gazing at God.

When humans saw God, they would not question anything. All they would do was enter a natural state of worship.
The actions of these Dictators further confirmed the positions that Dictators held in the marsh world.

It was said that with more knowledge, one would be more aware of how to act.

White Speak had never even left the East Vast Large Lake and was considered insignificant among all the Apostles.

Without Lin Yuan, there was no way that White Speak could attend the Banquet of Everything. It did not have the power to enter the Marsh East Circle.

All of the Apostles there had more experience and power than White Speak.

Lin Yuan was in great need of faith power because he needed to use a large amount of faith power in order to develop the divine kingdom in the shrine in his soul.

It would take 20% of the faith power that Lin Yuan currently possessed in order to change the environment comfort level of the divine kingdom.

He would need much more faith power in order to fully develop his divine kingdom.

Luckily, once a lifeform became faithful to him and became his Apostle, it would start to continuously provide him with faith power.

If these Apostles were able to provide him with a large amount of faith power, it would definitely be substantially beneficial for the development of his divine kingdom.

With this thought, Lin Yuan did not hesitate to accept the glowing threads of faith power.

Next, he tried to use his own faith power to guide the faith power from the Apostles into his body.

Since these Apostles were being sincere, Lin Yuan did not meet with any obstacles and had an easy time accepting their faith power into his body.

The Apostles’ faith power was similar in purity and only differed in quantity.

The Apostles’ faith power easily fused with Lin Yuan’s body and was directed to the divine kingdom.

The faith power flowed like water into the fountain of faith on the altar. As a result, the jets of water spraying out from the fountain became stronger and taller.

Lin Yuan did not hold back in the face of such a valuable opportunity and drained all the faith power that he could from these Apostles.

Once dimensional lifeforms became Apostles, their lifespans became extremely long. The fruits of their long-time accumulation allowed Lin Yuan to gain plenty.

Just from the faith power of the six Apostles in front of him, the amount of faith power in the fountain of faith doubled.

This allowed Lin Yuan to discover a new, more efficient way to collect faith power.

Since he had gained, he needed to give a gift in return.

The Apostles had been willing to offer him faith power without fear of their totems being sucked dry and suffering any negative effects.

Lin Yuan needed to provide them with an equally valuable gift. Otherwise, no other Apostles in the world would be willing to provide him with faith power in the future.

Without Apostles offering him faith power, there was no way a fake Dictator like him could rapidly develop his divine kingdom.

However, he was not sure how large the reward should be. This was because he did not know how much faith power was worth in terms of source-type power in the eyes of Apostles.

Lin Yuan looked at White Speak. He hoped that White Speak could understand his intentions through this look.

White Speak immediately understood what he meant.

White Speak did not know that Lin Yuan’s look was a questioning one. It assumed that Lin Yuan was unwilling to continue speaking with these inferior Apostles and wanted it to be his mouthpiece.

Thus, White Speak said haughtily, “It is your honor to be able to provide my Dictator with faith power. You should be grateful if my Dictator is willing to provide you with even 10 units of pure source-type power.”

Although White Speak had misunderstood what Lin Yuan meant, it still gave him the answer he sought.

Lin Yuan looked at White Speak with admiration as surprise surfaced within him.

Although Lin Yuan knew that pure source-type power could transform a dimensional lifeform into an Apostle and had made several Apostles of his own, he had not expected pure source-type power to be so precious in the marsh world.
