Lin Chen stared at the old man in front of him and said sadly, "It's useless no matter how well you wield the stick!"

"The Knights are not what we could have imagined at all."

"Look at your own muscles. You are just skin and bones. How can you have the strength to compare with others?"

Little Nicholas said calmly: "How do you know if you don't try it?"

Lin Chen watched as little Nicholas broke sticks one after another while practicing, to the bewilderment of his family and neighbors.

At the age of 9, he had mastered the art of swordsmanship.

Lin Chen felt ashamed of himself. Compared with the Son of Hope, he was simply wasting his life.

In other words, the park doesn’t mind, as long as you have game coins and soul fragments (small), you can upgrade. Otherwise, Lin Chen would not be able to reach the threshold of mastery even after he reaches adulthood.

When he was 10 years old, his father had an argument with the church knights.

"You damned pariah, you've soiled my shoes! You're looking for death!"

"stop!"

On one side are the church knights who are wearing armor, holding fine iron swords, and have been carefully trained for 30 years.

On one side is a slum kid wearing cloth, holding a simple wooden stick, and figuring out things on his own for four years.

Although the knights at this moment did not have the requirement of being at the first level as in later generations, they were not far from the first level.

As for Nicholas, although he was not skinny, he was malnourished and was only 10 years old.

If Lin Chen had not witnessed Nicholas' growth with his own eyes, he would definitely have believed that he would lose.

Lin Chen sighed and said, "It's useless. There is already a huge gap between mastery and basics!"

In addition to his extraordinary comprehension, Nicholas also had a physique that Lin Chen could not understand. Just relying on the training he figured out, he had trained his agility to over 10 points at the age of 40.

In Lin Chen's opinion, what restricts Nicholas' growth is nutrition. If it weren't for the lack of nutrition, he would have reached the first level long ago.

Just as Lin Chen said, the wooden stick bypassed all the knight's defenses and gently tapped his throat.

On the second day, everyone in the Holy City knew the name of Nicolus.

“Is this the beginning of the legend?”

The compliments from the crowd, the hope of an audience with the Pope, the admiration of the girls...

Lin Chen watched all this silently, and had a vague understanding in his heart: talent, understanding, and persistence made up the 10-year-old Nicolas.

Nicholas, who became famous at a young age, was not fooled by the false fame.

With the support of the Church of Hope, he practiced swordplay day after day without stopping.

The strongest in the holy city, married, and commanding the entire army.

Lin Chen had seen the young man achieve his greatest success with high spirits, had seen the young man and Daphne together under the moonlight, had seen the young man lead the entire army and swear an oath to bring hope to the human race.

"puff!!!"

Nicolus spat out a mouthful of hot blood on the ground and covered his chest with his hands, his face pale.

At the age of 18, Nicholas completed the second stage and was stuck for several years, unable to move.

Because this is the upper limit of the entire Black Mist human race, I hope that the knights of the church will mainly practice the fighting spirit inheritance brought by Hathaway.

By training the body to its limit, using the method to nurture the seeds of fighting spirit, entering the first level, and achieving extraordinary success.

The first and second levels are fine, the fighting spirit cultivated by the knight can barely be supplied by his own body, but the third level must absorb external energy.

However, Nicholas tried to sense the elements and free energy according to the methods passed down by the saints, but he gained nothing except hurting himself.

The road ahead is blocked!

Regarding this situation, Lin Chen knew Du Ming that it was not because Nicolas lacked talent. With his talent, Lin Chen believed that if he practiced normally, he would at least start at level 8.

Instead, the entire world has been eroded by the rules of the demigod demon. The free energy in the air is made up of more than half of the demonic power. All energy-related practices are not feasible.

As for Hathaway's inheritance of the Light Mage, that is even more impossible.

Lin Chen thought to himself: "In this situation, we can only seek inner strength and create a method to develop the potential of the human body, and it must not conflict with fighting spirit. No wonder Saint Nicolas chose the path of will."

-------

Nicholas was confused, but the moment he picked up the stick, he, who was born with precocity, realized his talent.

He works hard day after day to bring hope to everyone in the slums when he grows up.

As a key training target of the Church of Hope, he naturally knew that the class structure in the Holy City was indeed rigid, but this was not the main factor.

Even if all the upper class people were eradicated, there would be no way to ensure that the many people living in the slums could live a good life.

The Holy City area is too poor. After 500 years of development, I hope the church has already mined all the resources that can be mined in the Holy City area.

Only by breaking through the black fog blockade can we bring new hope.

Nicholas thought that with his unprecedented talent, he would become a new hope, but he ended up suffering a bloody defeat at the second level of perfection.

"This won't work. The path passed down by the saints is simply not feasible."

"Every time I try to break through, I feel as if the whole world is filled with malice!"

Nicolus looked at the sky in confusion. Was this the black fog's blockade of their human race? No wonder the breakthrough gifts left by their ancestors were so hopeless.

The black fog killed generation after generation of their geniuses.

"In other words, we need to create a new path that can break through the blockade of the black fog."

"Since no one has done it, let me do it!"

"I am the one who brings hope to everyone!"

Lin Chen had to admit that his absolute courage was the most outstanding thing about Nicholas. His fearlessness of all opponents was the reason why Nicholas surpassed the 500-year-old talents of the Church of Hope.

In order to pass the level, 18-year-old Nicolas traveled around the holy city and its surrounding areas, observing all kinds of life.

The Holy City + 12 affiliated towns + San Lorenzo, this is all the Holy City area has.

Three months later, Nicolus returned to the gate of the Holy City.

Looking at the gate of the holy city, Nicholas recalled what he had seen and heard along the way. All living beings are suffering, and only the vague hope is keeping them alive. The Black Mist Human Race had already reached their limit.

"Hahaha!"

"I understand!"

"Since all living beings are looking forward to the arrival of hope, then hope is me! I am hope!"

"To respond to the hopes of all living beings, that is my path!"

Under Lin Chen's gaze.

Nicholas smiled slightly and stepped into the holy city. A breath of air rose into the sky, and everyone around the gate of the holy city knelt down involuntarily.

Everyone present felt a power called hope surging in their hearts. They cried loudly. Hope had never been so close.

This is the realm of hope, created by the will of Nicolus and born in response to the hopes of all living beings.

Starting today, I will enter the third stage. The Son of Hope - Saint Nicholas will pave the way for all living beings.

Chapter 175: Before Enlightenment and Advancement

"He is worthy of being a legend!" Lin Chen exclaimed.

"At the age of 18, he is at the third level, and his path forward is blocked!"

When Lin Chen saw Saint Nicholas realize the realm of hope in one step, although he had known that he would realize it, Lin Chen was still shocked.

According to Lin Chen's idea, I know that you are a peerless genius, but according to the normal style of painting, this is at least a difficult problem that has troubled the ancestors of all generations. Shouldn't you have pondered over it for several years and finally figured it out with a flash of inspiration?

After three months of traveling, you have realized it? Where is the face of our ancestors?

Don't pretend anymore? Just open it!

Lin Chen was shocked and could not understand the world of genius!

Saint Nicholas is not a player system. According to the practice methods of all realms, it is normal to be stuck in a small bottleneck for three months.

Lin Chen thought of the various realms of cultivation that Hathaway had introduced to him before.

First of all, the way of fighting qi. Anyone who can comprehend fighting qi before the age of 18 is considered a genius, one in a hundred.

Saint Nicholas...at the age of 18, he entered the third level.

"If Saint Nicolas had not been born in the Black Mist World, perhaps he could have reached the 9th level and achieved the status of a legend. It is not impossible for him to even become famous throughout the worlds and embark on the path of a demigod."

Lin Chen sighed in his heart, thinking of Saint Nicholas, who was already a skeleton when they first met. Such a genius, had fallen to this state.

Once transformed into the undead, it is very difficult to be resurrected again. Lin Chen has never heard of anyone being able to reverse the soul fire into a soul. Perhaps it can be achieved with extremely high soul attainments, but this is far from something a Black Mist native can do.

What's more, whether it is splitting the mental fragments to give to Lin Chen, or using the undead body to release the field of hope to save the people, this will be permanent damage to the soul fire, and even Hathaway * Xinglan has no way to deal with it.

In fact, with Saint Nicholas' talent, Hathaway had already noticed him when he arrived at the statue of the saint.

Although she knew him quite well, Hathaway still did not show up to meet him in the end.

There is no other reason, it just adds to your troubles, the higher you go, the harder it is to go.

Saint Nicholas can enter the third level, but going any further is undoubtedly a pipe dream. Without resources, teachers, or even communication, it is not impossible for a native to cultivate to the level where he can help Hershey behind closed doors. That's to give Miracle some face!

Hathaway gave everything she could 500 years ago.

What's more, even if another Hathaway came, it would make no difference to the demigod demon because he couldn't escape anyway.

Only outsiders have a chance of survival.

-----------------

Saint Nicholas, who returned to the Holy City, not only broke through to the third level by relying on the Way of Will.

At the same time, he used the field of hope to isolate the devil's power and successfully made a breakthrough in his own fighting spirit.

Saint Nicholas, who possesses the ways of fighting spirit and will, became the first third-level person in the history of the Black Mist human race and also the strongest person.

In the same year, Saint Nicholas set out to build a pioneer corps. He used all of humanity's resources and spent a full seven years personally building an elite corps.

Moreover, he perfected the training methods of knights again, making the training methods of the Church of Hope more sophisticated by more than one level, laying the foundation for the knight title to be of level 1 in later generations.

Under the leadership of Saint Nicholas, human geniuses emerged in large numbers, first-level knights appeared in a blowout manner, and second-level masters were also common.

Afterwards, he led a pioneering army of at least level 1 to start pioneering. With the blessing of the field of hope, he swept away the demons and opened up gathering points.

.......

"The above are some of my insights, I hope they are helpful to you!" The kind voice echoed in Lin Chen's mind. As the voice ended, the picture began to stagnate and the entire virtual world began to shatter.

"It's over! What a legendary life!" Lin Chen opened his eyes, let out a long breath, and looked at the time. Almost 5 hours had passed.

Fragments of Saint Nicholas' memory detailing the major events in his life.

A childhood in the slums, a young boy who became famous at a young age, an adult who realized the realm of hope, and a pioneering period of endless battles...

Lin Chen showed gratitude on his face. Saint Nicholas almost completely displayed all his life's understanding.

It should be noted that the more detailed the memory fragments, the greater the loss of Saint Nicolas' soul fire source.

Lin Chen benefited a lot from this experience. Apart from anything else, his swordsmanship proficiency alone improved by another level.

From Sword Mastery Lv.18 to Sword Mastery Lv.19. Only one step away from perfection.

Saint Nicholas also used a sword. Lin Chen started from scratch and witnessed him starting from the basic level 1 of swordsmanship. Finally, after more than ten years of pioneering wars with the black fog monsters, he was promoted all the way to a perfect swordsmanship expert.

Although it was only a partial memory node of Saint Nicholas, it also benefited Lin Chen's swordsmanship a lot.

Saint Nicholas' swordsmanship is unique with a distinct personal style (purely self-created). In the early stage, he focused on speed and technique, but in the later stage, he integrated his will into the swordsmanship and took the path of heavy sword without edge.

Lin Chen had a hunch that if he could consume all the memory fragments, it would not be impossible for him to master swordsmanship to perfection.

However, swordsmanship is only the additional value of this memory fragment. What is truly precious about this memory fragment is the way of will that Saint Nicholas created with his entire life's efforts because he was stuck in the road ahead.

For Lin Chen, the greatest gain is the many uses of the field of hope, which provides guidance for Lin Chen's own construction and can serve as a reference for Lin Chen.

The core of the field of hope is actually the will of Saint Nicolas to bring hope to all living beings, and it is a method of will specifically aimed at the black fog.

Lin Chen pondered and recalled the specific details.

Usage 1: Large-scale practice motivator. As we all know, people are lazy, and not everyone can persist in the hard practice every day. And this is very easy for Saint Nicolas to solve. He only needs to release the field of hope every day when he eats, covering the canteen of the pioneer army. Those soldiers can't wait to finish their meals and go back to the training ground for training.

Usage 2: Purification (or filtering) of demonic power. Saint Nicholas, who controls the realm of hope, can purify a small amount of heaven and earth energy through his own will. This will make the energy environment for the pioneering army to practice more sufficient, allowing the first-level knights to break through to the second level at a faster speed.
