"I still can't quite accept it. Maybe I'm behind the times …"
Prometheus smiled bitterly and said thoughtfully, "But Your Majesty, you said that they will be the foundation of our pantheon in the future. Are you planning to invest more in The Biomass Gear?"
"The foundation of our pantheon is too weak, my God of Prophets. To make up for this, one is the Magic Armor that Anthony is presiding over. I'm trying to find a way to obtain the mechanical technology of the 'Tyla Empire' to speed up the development of the Magic Armor. The other is The Biomass Gear. We have fully understood the technology of the Mohrans, but the technology they have is not enough for us to gain a foothold in this world. We must continue to develop further based on their foundation. It just so happens that the genes of these Bloodfeasting Insects are very interesting and will be a good direction for a breakthrough. "
Li Mochen's eyes flashed, "But if we want to develop more powerful The Biomass Gear, we will definitely touch the domain of God, and we will need a large number of professionals."
Prometheus understood what he was thinking, "So these scholars are destined to lack respect for God, so you want to form a 'trade' relationship with them?"
"Instead of using these scholars as tools to control, it's better to use them as trading partners. Although the price will be slightly higher, it will avoid possible backlashes in the future, and it will also make them more passionate in their research. What do you think? "
As soon as Li Mochen said this, his expression became serious.
This was because there were dozens of sound waves and divine thoughts coming out from the inside of the desert world. The sound waves were close to ultrasonic waves, and humans could not hear them. But the divine thoughts were vast and majestic, and contained a monstrous anger.
Just as they expected, the lords and the Insect Queen finally discovered the abnormality, and they angrily searched the outer realm, using their divine thoughts to sweep back and forth in the void.
But in the end, the lords and the Insect Queen did not find anything. Li Mochen's concealment ability was far beyond their abilities. The two of them stood in the void, surrounded by a time sequence barrier that prevented the most powerful of these demonic insects from sensing them within an extremely close distance of 1,000 kilometers.
"Patrick's research is correct. These Bloodfeasting Demonic Insects should be incomplete creations. Their Insect Queens have a lot of flaws in certain aspects. "
Prometheus coldly observed the area in front of him. He looked at the hundreds of demonic insects that were only two to three times the size of a normal human but covered in insect armor scurrying around in the void.
Before reaching the Mid God level, the stronger they were, the larger their bodies would be. But after reaching Godhood level nine, the situation was reversed. The stronger they were, the smaller their bodies would be.
As for the Insect Queens, even though they had massive bodies, they were still extremely powerful. However, their secondary body was only the size of a normal human, and this secondary body could separate from the main body to move independently, which was also their main combat ability.
There were seven sub-bodies of the Insect Queen that had entered the void to search. They would occasionally approach the place where they were standing. However, when they were close to 10,000 kilometers away, they were diverted by Li Mochen's power.
The Divine Power of Fate did not allow them to approach this place.
This, in Prometheus' view, was where they fell short. Their divine sense was very powerful, but it was very rigid and sluggish. If it was a normal Godly King, it would not have been able to be toyed with by his Lord.
Of course, this shortcoming wasn't actually a fatal flaw. When it came to actual combat, they were very difficult to make use of.
Therefore, the combat ability of these Insect Queens was still the real deal.
"There are no perfect creatures in this world, Prometheus. At this level, it is already very terrifying. It is very difficult to perfect them any further. If it were me, I would not continue to strengthen them. As a tool, they are already sharp enough to hurt my hand. "
Li Mochen evaluated indifferently. His mind was constantly watching the interior of the desert world.
Two hours after the plan started, the demon insects in the desert world had already died in large numbers. This was due to the more poisonous' Retribution Type 2 'and' Retribution Type 4 '. At the same time, the' Retribution Type 3 'virus was also spreading among them.
The health of the demon insects was worrying. The nests they lived in were also 'alive'. The interior was filled with all kinds of biological fluids. Not only did these fluids contain many spores, they were also food for the demon insects. It was something similar to a nutrient solution. It allowed the demon insects to maintain the lowest level of nutrition. At the same time, it nurtured the spores into the demon insect larvae.
This kind of environment was simply a paradise for the virus to breed. In a short two hours, the 'Retribution Type 3' virus that Li Mochen sensed was already everywhere.
Then, when the seven hours were up, the demon insects started to die in large numbers.
At the same time, Li Mochen also sensed that his' Divine Cloud Purple Gold Pagoda 'was trembling non-stop. The power of virtue gathered outside the pagoda started to increase explosively.
Li Mochen was not surprised. He knew that this was not a gift from the world's will. The 'Heaven's Will' of those worlds was not so smart. This was virtue. It was just that his current actions had stirred up the karma.
If he let these insects enter the world of light, Li Mochen might gain more. But obviously, he would not do that. His divinity would not allow it.
The disaster of the 'Bloodfeasting Demon Insects' lasted for nine days. After 210 hours, the spread of the virus began to slow down on a large scale.
The feudal lords had already been able to accurately identify the uninfected magic insects, and had implemented extremely strict quarantine and supervision. Then, they burned the insect nests. Almost all of the nests were destroyed, which effectively reduced the spread of the virus.
By the 234th hour, these three types of virus had been completely suppressed. But the result was already crazy enough. Nearly 95% of the low-level demon insects died of the virus infection. Even the high-level demon insects died on a large scale because they mistakenly ate the poisonous insect carcasses at the beginning.
Nearly 82% of the insect nests were destroyed. These were also the spaceships that the 'Bloodfeasting Demon Insects' prepared to use to cross the void.
Only the demon insects and insect nests under the noses of the feudal lords survived. At this time, the entire 'Bloodfeasting Demon Insect' population had been weakened by at least 30% to 50%.
Li Mochen predicted that not long after, there would be even more mid and high rank devil insects dying. It was not because of the virus, but because of hunger.
Just as Carl Sen said, the low-level demon insects were actually more of a food source. And the characteristics of the Bloodfeasting Demon Insects made it impossible for them to survive by just absorbing magic energy.
At this time, the merit points on the 'Divine Firmament Purple Spirit Fortune Pagoda' had increased to 5.2 billion. Unfortunately, there was still a long way to go before the fifth 'Purple Spirit Virtue Aura'.
However, Li Mochen saw a glimmer of hope. Previously, the figure of 8.1 billion merit points was daunting to him. But now, the remaining 2.9 billion didn't seem to be an insurmountable moat.
He was now earning as much as 12 million merit points per day. If he didn't use it now, he could reach the fifth requirement of the 'Purple Spirit Virtue Aura' in half a year.
Of course, Li Mochen would not do that. In terms of yield, the merit points he invested in himself and Angela and the others would undoubtedly have a higher return.
Therefore, the prerequisite for gathering the 'Purple Spirit Virtue Aura' was that it would not affect their cultivation progress.
But —
"Let's go back, Prometheus."
Li Mochen grabbed Prometheus' arm, and with another 'leap', they returned to his Destiny Village Magic Tower.
Before leaving, Li Mochen took one last look at the depths of the desert world.
His' leap 'was not without a trace, and it was also accurately sensed by one of the Bloodfeasting Demon Insects' queen.
The moment he left, the queen was trying its best to lock his and Prometheus' souls, memorizing their divine power characteristics. At the same time, a total of 13 extremely cold gazes were staring at them.
It was obvious that the top-level power of the Bloodfeasting Demon Insects was very strong. If Li Mochen did not leave fast enough, he would have been killed by the queen with a divinity level of 20.
Which supreme god's creation was it? What was the purpose of placing it here?
With this question in mind, Li Mochen returned to the Destiny Village Magic Tower.
"Actually, we can't hide from them for long. Only the World of Light can attack them in this way."
Prometheus laughed in spite of the pain. "They will keep searching, and our enemies will be happy to see us in trouble."
"If they come in this state, it's actually a good thing. I'm looking forward to it."
Li Mochen smiled carelessly, and then flashed away from his Divine Kingdom.
He was not lying. The arrival of powerful enemies from other realms would cause the World Will of the World of Light to shift to the side of the resistance. This would also greatly affect the attitude of Gaia and the other original gods, and even Zeus and Odin could not ignore it. And the result of suspending the civil war and uniting against a foreign enemy was obvious.
As far as the Destiny Divine Branch was concerned, the more time it had to grow, the stronger it would become.
If it was not for his moral concept and gradually solidifying divinity, Li Mochen might have directly led the Bloodfeasting Demon Insects into the World of Light, which was too beneficial for him.
This time, when Li Mochen left the Divine Kingdom, he did not use his Divine Right again, and there was no need to do so in the World of Light. As soon as he thought of this, his field of vision changed.
This was the Hua Nation, the foot of Mount Kunlun.
And at the same time, the figure of a goddess flashed and appeared in front of Li Mochen.
"Long time no see, Your Highness."
Li Mochen looked at the goddess in front of him and smiled. "I have to say, Your Highness, you have extraordinary courage."
Isis replied calmly, "This is not your territory. I guess Your Highness, you don't want to make things difficult for the owner of this place, do you?"
"If you are willing to pay a price, I can. To be able to cut off Horus' most important arm and think tank, this is an irresistible temptation. I am sure that you have not fully recovered from your previous injuries, this is the best time to kill you. "
Although Li Mochen said so, his expression became serious. "Tell me, why did you ask me to come here? Let me guess, there is something wrong with your child, the God of Light? "
Hearing this, Isis did not answer immediately. Her face was gloomy, and she stared coldly at Li Mochen.
"This is easy to guess, isn't it? If there is nothing wrong with Horus, then you should have come to me long ago. "
Li Mochen smiled faintly, not caring about Iciz's fiery gaze at all.
"In the current situation, as long as our two sides work together, we can directly lock the position of the two Supreme Gods. With your wisdom, you should be able to see this clearly, and you are not so stupid as to be reluctant to give up a world core. I have been waiting for you in the Village of Destiny for a long time, Your Highness, but you have not come to find me. "
"You are right."
Isis took a deep breath. "Under normal circumstances, I would have facilitated the alliance between you and Horus half a year ago, and all the disputes in the World of Light could be ended. But now, Horus, the God of Light has a small problem, and I need your help. "
"Help? Help does not come without a price. "
Li Mochen's eyes narrowed slightly. "But you can tell me first, what is the situation?"
"I guess it is another Horus, Horus of the Tyla Empire, the Wolf God of the Shadow Moon. He himself has a problem —"
Isis paused. "Your Majesty Wildenstein, you may find it hard to believe, but the rebellion started by the Church of Light in South America was personally ordered by Horus."
Hearing this, Li Mochen was slightly stunned, and then he fell into deep thought. "I want to know, did he agree to Cha Rong's proposal to work together to deal with the 'Master of Chaos' Horus?"
Cha Rong had been working on this for almost half a year, but other than Gaia's slight reaction, and the fact that she had taken the initiative to contact Li Mochen once, the other forces had not made a splash at all.
But in Li Mochen's original prediction, among the few God Kings, only the God of Light would be the one who would not sit idly by and watch Horus awaken, even more so than Gaia.
From his point of view, whether it was Horus' true body, the Wolf God of the Shadow Moon, or his projection in this world, the God of Light, they could not coexist with 'Chaos'.
"No!"
Isis's chest rose and fell, and she let out a long breath. "This is also what I find strange."
Li Mochen had already frowned. "If that is the case, then the situation of your child is a little serious, Your Highness Isis. Then the repeated suicide attacks by the Church of Truth in recent years are also because of his divine orders? "
"No! That has been for many years. Before this, Horus would never let his believers fall into a dangerous situation, or sacrifice themselves for the so-called 'Holy War'. André, you should know what is going on. The so-called Holy War in the Middle Ages was just in the name of religion. In essence, it was a conflict between two cultures, races, and living space. The priests and nobles who had stolen the authority of Horus were manipulating and sowing discord. This was not the will of the gods. The situation with the Church of Truth is similar. "
Isis looked at Li Mochen mockingly. "The Church of Destiny was only established in recent years, but as far as I know, similar signs have already appeared, right?"
Li Mochen could not help but smile bitterly. It was not just a sign. The truth was that the situation was getting more serious. Different races, different countries, different races, hundreds of powerful forces, and hundreds of gods were united under the same church. How could there not be internal conflicts?
In the future, if he fell into a deep sleep, or if there was a need for him to leave temporarily due to certain circumstances, then the church would split due to interests. The upper echelons of the clergy would use their authority to oppress the believers, or even use the name of the Lord God to expel those who did not. These were all things that could be expected.
The current structure of the Church of Destiny was indeed advanced. Modern information transparency also allowed the believers to have more channels to understand the church and their gods. However, these drawbacks were unavoidable even for modern large companies with strict systems, not to mention the looser organization, but the larger structure of the church organization.
Only under his personal control and suppression could the unity of the church be maintained to the greatest extent. Only when there were powerful external enemies would the Gods of Heaven's Will be able to work together.
"Moreover, the faith over there has little to do with Horus. Ahura's control over the Church of Truth is gradually increasing, and the imams have basically blocked the communication channels between Horus and the believers. "
"I know this."
Li Mochen knew that this system of imams was originally left behind by Ahura. Horus was unable to overthrow the organization of the Zoroastrians in the Middle East in the past. And the consequence of following this system was the rapid expansion of the faith of the God of Truth in the countries of the Middle East. But at the same time, it also left a fatal hidden danger.
If the God of Light could always maintain his strength, then this actually did not constitute a threat. But the current situation gave Ahura space to steal the faith.
"Then how do you want me to help you? Princess Iciz? If there is a problem with the consciousness of the God of Light, then there is nothing I can do. Also, what are you willing to pay for this? You should know that among the gods of the World of Light, I am the only one who is willing and able to help him. "
"You are right. Only your credibility, I am willing to bet."
At this moment, Iciz's eyes were a little hot. "I think the most appropriate way now is to use the Wishing Spell. I want to borrow the power of your 'Wishing Tower'."
"Wishing Tower?"
Li Mochen immediately frowned. "It is a good idea, but it is impossible!"
He knew that Iciz's plan was probably to make a wish like 'wishing for the God of Light to remain awake and self-aware' to help Horus out of his predicament.
Of course, the consumption of the Wishing Spell would not be provided by him. The mother and son themselves had a lot of merit points.
But Li Mochen still rejected it immediately and was extremely against the idea.
The ability of the 'Divine Cloud Purple Gold Tower of Spiritual Luck' to grant wishes was not limitless. It was currently supplying Li Mochen, the Divine Mandate God System, and the entire upper echelons of the Church with wishes. It was already on the verge of operating at full capacity.
And to keep Horus conscious and self-aware, who knew how many resources of the 'Divine Cloud Purple Gold Tower of Spiritual Luck' would be needed? This would also greatly weaken Li Mochen's personal strength.
This' wish 'could not be fulfilled in a short period of time. It needed to be maintained for quite a long period of time. And during this period, if Li Mochen encountered a strong enemy, it would undoubtedly be equivalent to breaking his own arm.
"You will agree, Your Majesty Wildenstein! I can roughly guess your concerns, but as long as the 'wish' method is clever enough, it will not affect you at all. "
Iciz's voice was cold and her eyes strong. "Everything in this world has a value, and I will come up with conditions that will move you."
As she spoke, she threw out an item from her sleeve. It floated in the air in front of the two of them.
As expected, Li Mochen's eyes were filled with surprise, and his expression changed drastically. After that, he stood there alone and pondered for a long time. After a while, Li Mochen smiled bitterly again. "Your courage and decisiveness always surprise me, Your Highness Iciz. This bargaining chip really moved me, but if that's all, it wasn't enough. Other than that, you have to agree to a few conditions of mine. "
Iciz frowned deeply, looking displeased. Li Mochen, on the other hand, had an unfathomable look on his face: "Your Highness Iciz, I am not an insatiable person, I do not need you to take out anything extra. It is just that there is something that is very beneficial to both of us, and I need your and the God of Light's help … "
Iciz narrowed her eyes. "If it is to dissolve the alliance, this is impossible."
If it was to dissolve the alliance between them, then there was no need for him to take out such a precious treasure as a bargaining chip.
"Let me finish."
Li Mochen would not make such an unrealistic request. He knew that before the God of Light solved his "psychological" problem, this pair of mother and son would not allow him to step into the "god of gods" position alone.
"It is related to 'Chaos' Chaos Chaos Chaos. I think the God of Light will definitely not reject this matter when he is awake."
* * *
The reward that Iciz took out was the large original world core. And this wish that she made to Li Mochen was to "wish that Iciz's child, Horus, can maintain his consciousness and self-awareness as much as possible when the God of Fate is not in a state of battle." In addition, in the form of a contract, it was stipulated that Li Mochen must fulfill this wish of Iciz unconditionally as long as it was within his power. The time period would last for a hundred years, or end when Horus became a god of gods.
This was indeed a very ingenious way of making a wish. The target of the wish was very clear, and it could also eliminate Li Mochen's worries and burdens.
This Holy Mother of Light could be said to be willing to do anything for her child. Not only did she take out such a precious treasure, she was also willing to accept such an extremely unequal contract.
What made Li Mochen regretful was that this transaction happened a little late. If this had happened before the God King's Trade Fair, he could have directly used this thing to exchange for a "Pseudo-Truth" mythical equipment to further strengthen his own power.
And now, other than giving Li Mochen more advantages and initiative in the fight for the future god of gods, there was no other benefit. It could not increase Li Mochen's own power in any way.
Only the value of this thing could indeed be equivalent to a "Pseudo-Truth" mythical equipment.
And after Iciz's wish was completed, Li Mochen felt a heavy pressure. The "God Cloud Purple Gold Tower of Spirit Luck" had reached its limit, so Li Mochen had to make himself a wishing machine to bear the overflowing part of the "God Cloud Purple Gold Tower of Spirit Luck." From this, it could be seen how serious the problem the God of Light was facing now.
Fortunately, he now relied on the "Scarlet Dragon Armor" and held two portions of "Eternity" at the pseudo-truth level. Otherwise, he really could not bear the burden.
And after returning to the Mage Tower of Destiny, Li Mochen called his "Mystery Prying Angel" Reinhardt Heydrich over.
"Use the fastest speed to spread the news of my secret meeting with Iciz. Emphasize that I have reached a secret agreement with Iciz that cannot be announced."
"Yes, Your Majesty! I will let Zeus and Odin know about this as soon as possible. "
Heydrich did not feel that Li Mochen's backstabbing was inappropriate at all. Instead, his eyes were full of admiration.
Once this news spread, it meant that Odin and the others' alliance against the Destiny Gods was on the verge of breaking. In a situation where they were suspicious of each other, it was difficult for them to work together.
"Looks like the God of Light is really in trouble, right? Is it a problem of consciousness? "
Hearing this, Li Mochen could not help but nod slightly. "Just as you guessed, and it is even more serious than you think."
His "Mystery Prying Angel" had made this guess to his sub-body a long time ago, and this one also had enough evidence to support his opinion.
In the past six months, the internal struggle of the Old Church of Light had been very intense. The 253rd Pope, John Honorius, was about to die of old age, and the next Pope had not been chosen for a long time. The New Church of Light did not let people have a peace of mind either, and there was a huge conflict between several churches.
There was also news that Uriel and Michael had once had a fierce conflict over the matter of Ahura's invasion of the truth faith, and they almost fought on the spot.
Then there was the God of Light himself. He used several Angel Kings to convey orders to the church, and most of the time, there were conflicting orders.
"So Iciz asked you for help?"
Heydrich's eyes flashed. "I will continue to pay attention to the God of Light's heaven and his church. I will not miss any changes, Your Majesty."
Li Mochen could not help but smile. The "Blond Beast" and "Black Prince" of the Teutonic World War II era had never let him down.
Now he really had to pay attention to the situation of the Church of Light. He could not be careless with the mother and son just because Iciz bowed to him for help. Otherwise, there was a high chance that he would be sold by them and still have to count the money for them.
After that, Li Mochen found that Heydrich did not seem to have any intention of leaving.
"Is there anything else to say?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. There has been a new situation in South America."
Heydrich put his hand on his chest and bowed slightly. "I suspect that the army of the WanShou Empire wants to withdraw from South America, and their decision this time may be very firm."
Li Mochen was slightly stunned, and then he laughed sarcastically. "At this time, they should have come to their senses. However, it is not so easy to withdraw just like that. Have you passed the relevant information to Guderian? "
"I have passed it to him!"
Heydrich also laughed. "The South America theatre has already drawn up a new battle plan. Guderian and the others will not allow the armies of the WanShou Empire to withdraw so easily."
* * *
At 7: 30 pm, when the "Twilight Offensive" launched by the Pelotas Front Army of the WanShou Empire came to an end, the commander-in-chief of the Seventh Army Group of the Front Army, Grand Duke Ebu Kefallenburg, was in his headquarters, looking at the electronic projection map in front of him with a worried frown. He was operating it personally, constantly zooming in and out of the map, checking every detail on the front line.
After three years of fighting in the World of Light, this great noble of the WanShou Empire was already very proficient in controlling these modern technology and magic equipment, but this did not help to solve the dilemma he was facing now.
At this moment, one of his closest subordinates, Duke Burney Kfalenburg, the commander of the 35th Division under the 7th Division, also strode in with great vigor.
"It's like this again. Our army can only break through the third layer of trenches. We can't go on like this, Grand Duke. The individual melee combat ability of the human soldiers on the other side has become very strong. With the help of the so-called Magic Armor and Biological Prosthetics, they are not inferior to our most elite soldiers. Their defensive lines and fortifications seem easy to break through, but they all have ingenious structures, large spans of depth, and there are unknown and extremely powerful forces hidden behind them. And on the entire front, they are using similar traps to strangle our soldiers. "
As he spoke, he walked to the electronic projection map, and then directly pointed at several positions on the map with the sword in his hand.
"The defenses here and here have been strengthened by them. There are seven hidden forts that have not been discovered before. My men have tried them. The casualties are very tragic, and there is almost no possibility of a breakthrough. So today, not only did we not achieve any results, but we also retreated three hundred meters on this line from 43 to 54. The specific number of casualties has not yet been calculated, but it is definitely not less than three thousand. There is also a large number of servant soldiers who have defected to the other side without firing a single shot. But I have been very careful. "
After saying up to this point, he looked a little hesitant, but still gritted his teeth and said: "Grand Duke, I think their strength is actually enough to chase our army into the sea a month ago. This is very dangerous. They have sharpened their claws and teeth to become incomparably sharp, but they have always been hiding behind that line of defense, almost only defending and not attacking. On the contrary, we know that there is no way to break through, and there is no way to defeat our enemy. Yet, in these few months, we wasted tens of millions of dollars … "
"Shut up, Burney! Do you want to bring disaster to our family? "
Able Keparenberg cast a fierce look at Duke Gauguin, as their names implied.
This Grand Duke of Caterto and Duke Gauro Bernie Kefallenburg came from the same family. They both came from the Kefallenburg Castle in the Caterto Province of the WanShou Empire. That was the origin of their family.
"But I have to say it!"
Bernie Kefallenburg's face was pale, and his eyes were scarlet as he stared at his superior, the leader of the Kefallenburg family. "Grand Duke, I have a premonition that if the battle continues like this, we will soon be finished. In the entire Seventh Army Group, there are more than one commander who thinks like me. I even know that you are one of them. Whether you admit it or not, you have deliberately slowed down the intensity of the entire front line during this period of time. But this is not enough. Grand Duke, you are one of the top twenty nobles of the empire, the Cardinal of War, and the future commander of the Martyr's Palace. You have an obligation to stand up for everyone, for our soldiers, for the future of our empire! We need more soldiers, and we need more weapons. "
Ebu Kefallenburg was slightly stunned, and then he scanned the people around him: "Everyone, leave!"
After everyone had left, Ebu Kfallenburg grabbed Duke Goro by the collar.
"Do you think the higher-ups don't know? Bernie? Are you the only one who has realized this? Bernie, you idiot. If it wasn't for your sister, I would have killed you. According to the military punishment in this world, you will be executed! "
Bernie Kefallenburg could not help but be stunned, and then his eyes narrowed: "I know, but I can't do anything about it. So the situation is worse than I thought? Let's get to the bottom of this. If you must execute me, then let me die knowing. Also, Grand Duke, do you think the morale of the army needs me to shake? "
"Your personality will bring disaster to the family sooner or later, Bernie."
Grand Duke Caterto sighed softly, and threw his brother to the side: "But you still underestimate those guys on the other side. The way I see it, they may have had enough power to drive us into the sea three months ago, not a month ago like you think. No, it may have been half a year ago. Ever since the war on Granden Island, they have no disadvantage in terms of top combat power. But not only in Southern America, they have adopted extremely conservative tactics in almost all the defensive lines. "
"Are they that powerful?"
Bernie Kefallenburg looked puzzled: "You make me feel strange. Why do they do this? Is it just to consume our national power and military power? But as far as I know, we still got a lot of things from Southern America. A lot of manpower, food, minerals, and magic materials. With these resources, our birth rate did not decrease, but increased. The Empire's policy of rotation is also very wise. Now we only need about ten million more troops, a certain number of magic armors, and more resources for the construction of fixed fortifications. We should not have too many losses. "
"Consuming our national power is one aspect."
Grand Duke Caterto's eyes showed a hint of mockery: "But you have not seen the essence of this war, Bernie! This is a war of faith, not an ordinary war. "
Bernie Kefallenburg immediately frowned: "Faith?"
"The purpose of a war of faith is to deal a maximum blow to the enemy's national power and war potential, while a war of faith is to harvest as much faith as possible. And now — "
Grand Duke Caterto's voice became more and more bitter: "In the past six months, at least 2.3 billion people in Southern America have converted to the God of Destiny. This is only the statistics on the surface. In the dark, we don't know how many people are secretly worshiping it. Bernie, although we have built many temples in this country and a large number of believers visit every day, in fact, there is less than one in a thousand true believers. Do you know why? "
Bernie Kefallenburg already had some understanding: "Is it because of the war? And our oppression of this region? "
"More or less. They have the ability to drive us out of this land, but it is of no benefit to the faith of the Church of Destiny. And now, more and more people were moving closer to their churches. Using the enemy's weapons to force them, not only is it easier to gather people's hearts, but they also do not have to stain their own hands. How terrifying is our enemy? "
Grand Duke Caterto sighed again: "This war is becoming more and more unprofitable. We have long wanted to give up, Bernie! If we increase our troops according to your idea, let's not talk about the possibility of defending these territories, but before that, the problem we are facing will worsen. In addition, according to Lord Lorde's calculations, we will not be able to obtain enough benefits from this land in three months at most. A prolonged war will only make it easier for the enemy to collect faith. However, they have also seen through our intentions and will not allow us to leave. "
"They will not allow us to leave?"
Bernie Kefallenburg felt a chill: "You mean, they are confident that they can wipe us out now?"
