Chapter 289 Winter Begins Spring

Originally, Annan thought that it might be more difficult to adapt his body to the second holy skeleton than the first one...

But the truth is far from it.

After Annan obtained the first holy bone, his spiritual body had already been transformed by the heart of justice... Even if he got a new holy bone, Annan's soul would not evolve again.

In fact, judging from the situation of Gryanznuha and Alfonso, Annan has some doubts. Perhaps the holy bones other than the heart of justice have no possibility of transforming the soul.

This is also very reasonable.

After all, the essence of the righteous heart is the "fire seed" left by Sisyphus, who was about to ascend to God but failed, for this world. In essence, it is the most essential part of him.

As for the other holy bones made by the "Heart of Justice", the "source of raw material" of those holy bones has not actually tried the sublimation ceremony. They made up their minds not to sublimate, or could not find a way to sublimate, so they left a part of themselves to this world.

This is why the "Heart of Justice" is fundamentally different from other holy bones.

Annan's soul has obtained the Heart of Justice, and the difficulty of assembling other holy bones will be greatly reduced... and the "Hand of Hope" was originally one of the easiest holy bones to assemble.

The difficulty of installing the holy skeleton is that it must be assembled to the soul. Otherwise, if healed, the healing body would "push out" the holy bone.

Only by cutting off his left arm and the corresponding soul together—after the shape of the soul is changed, can the body remember "what it looks like after getting the holy skeleton".

And this is where the difficulty of transplanting holy bones lies.

How to accurately cut off the appropriate part of the soul, no more and no less... It will not be decoupled from the holy bone due to limb atrophy; nor will the holy bone be turned into a foreign body and pushed out due to over-healing.

The operation that the grandmother performed on Annan herself was astonishingly precise and swift:

It is different from Annan's plan to replace Maria's heart.

Annan's left hand is actually useless.

After asking Annan and getting repeated confirmations, the grandmother directly froze Annan's left arm and soul into powder.

Just for a moment - the cold winter air from the beginning of the world,

He froze Annan's left arm together with his diamond-like soul.

After that, it is enough to put the holy skeleton that has already recognized Annan and has just been fully activated by Annan on it, and apply treatment.

In fact, Hand of Hope has already recognized Annan. Even Annan has embraced it and made a holy deed...

【Persistence is for hope】.

This is exactly Annan's understanding of hope, and it is also the hope recognized by the hand of hope.

It's just because Annan's left hand is still alive, and because of the deterrence of the heart of justice, it dare not directly take away the position of Annan's left hand-that means the severe pain that tears the soul.

In front of the real "big brother", it dare not make mistakes.

So Annan directly obtained the ability of the Holy One.

His truth level has increased by another eleven levels, reaching level fifty-four.

——Compared to the forty-three-level Heart of Justice, the Hand of Hope is indeed just a younger brother.

The abilities given to Annan by the Hand of Hope are not as straightforward and simple as the Heart of Justice-infinite resurrection, infinite blue, and copying all skills.

It's rather fancy... only in certain situations, it may have a great ability.

It fits well with the name "Hope".

One of them is what Gryanznuha used in front of Annan:

[Regain hope: You can return to your peak state under any circumstances (even if you are controlled or killed), but the damage you have received will still accumulate, and you will suffer one-seventh of the recorded damage after removing this effect 】

The other two are the abilities that Gryanznuha did not show, and there may also be new abilities obtained by Annan:

[Victory Hope: It can only be triggered when the saint activates the "victory" element, and there is no need to burn the soul when using the victory element. Every time the judgment fails, the depth of the "victory" element will be doubled, and this effect can make the awakening depth of the "victory" element exceed 100%]

[Sharing Hope: A saint can temporarily give others any ability that can only be used on himself (that is, described as 'you') by touching others with the "Hand of Hope"]

Annan tried it. This ability can "share" [Regain Hope], but it cannot share the hope of victory and share hope. In other words, Annan could not share sharing itself.

The infinite blood and infinite blue of the saint of justice cannot be copied, but the holy sword of salvation can.

Almost all other abilities are available.

——This is a real miracle.

And the creator of miracles!

As long as you have any of these three abilities, you will undoubtedly become a saint who can bring "hope" to others.

And now, Annan is about to bring a real and supreme miracle to the Principality of Winter:

"So far, we have experienced too much suffering..."

Under the setting sun, Annan said this to the people in Shuangyu Square.

Being watched eagerly by the assembled crowd who already knew roughly what was going to happen, Annan really couldn't make any long speeches.

What are those eyes longing for?

- is "life".

So Annan canceled his original plan to give a speech.

Because of vigor and vitality, it should be self-evident——

"...and now, the old sufferings will come to an end.

"The Principality of Winter, here—spring begins!"

Following Annan's order.

The small enchantment in Frostwhisper Province was opened by Maria, and people shrank their necks subconsciously, preparing for the cold wind.

But in the end, it was a warm wind blowing towards our face.

The sun with runes hangs in the sky and can be easily seen; the sky is no longer always gray, dark and covered with dark clouds... People raised their heads unprepared, and were surprised by the blue sky With the dazzling sun piercing the eyes.

The winter snow melted in an instant, and at a speed that defied common sense—all the trees sprouted new shoots. The bare ground was alive again.

In the "greenhouse" in the city, all the vegetables, fruits, and food grow wildly regardless of the seasons, and they mature enough to be harvested in the blink of an eye.

The frost beasts in the wild and in the city gained life again in the blink of an eye, turned back to ordinary beasts, and regained their flesh and blood, but they still retained some of the special abilities they acquired during the frost beast period. Even Dmitry's daughter has thus become a "real person"... or rather, a real half-wolf.

The frozen river rushed away in the blink of an eye. Not only did it not have the smell of rancidity, it did not have the shabby smell of being frozen all year round, but it was full of vitality... The fish swarmed like crazy, dyeing the river in the setting sun. A dancing silver light.

- just for a moment.

Under the watchful eyes of the old grandmother, the frozen country turned into an Eden on earth.

full of hope.
