Sanctuary World, Eastern Continent, Kingdom of Kejistan.
Caldeum.
By this time, three full days had passed since Belial, the Lord of Lies, was successfully expelled back to Chaos Purgatory, and the insect swarm's purification activities of the towns in Kejistan that were affected by the evil blood were still continuing.
Not long after Xue Hua used Leviathan's main gun to blast Beria back to his hometown, the elite professional army from the second world arrived belatedly.
When they arrived, most of the battles in Kaldeum City were over. Due to Belial's retreat, Xue Hua actually suspected that this guy had been eaten by the King of Fear as a snack and lost to the snake-man demons in the city.
The blessing of the power of the Realm of Lies was finally completely broken up under the double attack of the insect swarm and the power of the will of the world.
The demon's large army was defeated by the swarm of insects, and a small number of snake-men stragglers fled into the remaining evil blood demon soil that had not been purified, and could no longer make any big waves.
In this catastrophe, the Kingdom of Kejistan suffered extremely heavy losses. On its way to reinforce the city of Kusa, the main force of the Kingdom's legion was ambushed by the evil covenanters of the True God Cult and a large number of snake demon troops. The entire legion was almost completely destroyed.
annihilate.
Among the three major cities that were hardest hit, including Caldeum and Kusa, except for the royal city of Caldeum, which had some survivors due to the desperate protection of three legendary strong men, the other two large cities have become two deserts.
A dead zone not to be entered.
Although the insect swarm and the newly arrived professional legion have sent a large number of manpower to search and rescue survivors in the purified city, so far, they have still not been able to find any living creatures...
The political system of the entire kingdom collapsed completely, and the domestic population dropped to less than one-tenth of what it was before the disaster.
The domestic economy is in recession, there is a serious shortage of supplies, and all national systems have fallen into a state of paralysis with severe damage.
Although the Parliament and other human kingdoms have begun to urgently deliver relief supplies to Kejistan, this ancient eastern desert kingdom is still on the verge of annihilation.
The only remaining administrative official with the highest position in the entire kingdom was the Foreign Minister who narrowly escaped death because he went to deliver the so-called "letter of credence" to Xue Hua.
He has now been urgently recalled to Kejistan by the parliament and ordered to immediately form a provisional parliament to save the Eagle Holy Flag that is on the verge of destruction.
Carloads of corpses and remains of victims were pulled out of the three major cities every day, and the post-war cleanup and statistical work was almost unimaginable.
Faced with this situation, the foreign minister who was appointed at the critical moment had no choice but to steel himself, recruit generals from among the surviving citizens, and select those survivors who had even insignificant experience in governance to temporarily serve as the "National Salvation Council"
He put up a framework, and then used his "professional knowledge" to start asking the parliament to increase assistance.
However, at this time, Ernstinger on the other side of the sea had just passed the crisis of national annihilation, and their situation was not much better than that of Kejistan.
Both human kingdoms are in urgent need of large amounts of material assistance, but King's Port, which was the richest in the past, has too much to take care of itself at this time. The parliament is stretched thin, and other human kingdoms are also doing their best. With no choice, the members of the parliament have no choice but to shamelessly ask for help.
Major professional holy places made requests for material assistance.
However, it is a pity that the major professional holy places have their own special characteristics. Few of these holy places exist in the form of kingdoms, and they cannot give more economic material feedback to the outside world.
After Uri learned that the crisis in Kardim had been resolved, he immediately withdrew the reinforcements he had just sent and re-entered a state of seclusion.
Only the druids of Xiansai and Tadura managed to squeeze out some supplies, but it was only a drop in the bucket.
Neither the Parliament nor other human kingdoms have the ability to provide more assistance. The two disaster-stricken countries had to fight over the distribution of the existing supplies. Kejistan's new "Parliament Speaker", the former Kingdom's Foreign Minister, personally led the team
Go to Lugaoin and start a "battle for supplies" with the envoys sent by the Kingdom of Ernstinger.
The two sides refused to give in to each other on the distribution of any material, and they fought to the death for every brick and log.
It was not until Xue Hua, who was finally invited by the parliament to observe, that he couldn't stand it anymore, and asked Zagara to use the scraps of materials collected by the swarm that had not been converted into standard resources by the swarm as aid to the two countries.
This gave the two countries the minimum foundation for reconstruction capital.
The current base of the insect swarm is so huge that it has completely exceeded everyone's imagination. Countless worker bees are working day and night to extract materials from any place where resources can be mined to supply the development of the insect swarm.
The bits of debris that fell out from the cracks of their fingers, which Zagara and Xue Hua didn't even care about, were enough for the two kingdoms to complete the basic reconstruction work.
After receiving Xue Hua's help, the two kingdoms were naturally grateful and sent invitations to Xue Hua one after another, inviting him to become the honorary duke of their country.
Among them, Kejistan was more enthusiastic because it received help from the insect swarm that had some suspicions at the most critical moment. The new "Chairman" of the "National Salvation Council" even told Xue Hua that he had previously submitted to Xue Hua
The contents of the credential are still valid...
In other words, as long as Xue Huaken nods, he can immediately be crowned as the new king of Kegistan and command the entire large territory in the central part of the Eastern Continent.
It is a pity that for the current Xue Hua, being the king of a human kingdom is of no help to him at all. Even more than that, the current Kingdom of Kejistan is simply a huge burden for him.
So he refused all invitations from both countries without hesitation, and officially announced at this meeting that he would soon leave the sanctuary world, and he would not come back until everything was over.
The news that Xue Hua was about to leave soon spread throughout the Sanctuary world as the meeting ended, and his friends all sent him letters or legendary communications, inviting him to get together before leaving.
But in the end, Xue Hua only agreed to the invitation from Rogge Fortress, and he told Akara that he could not stay more than one morning at most.
The reason why he is so anxious is not because there are other urgent things to do, but because the rejection of the will of the first world has become stronger again a day ago, and now he really seems to be possessed by a declining god.
Nothing goes well no matter what you do.
The repulsive effect of the world's will was causing him difficulties almost every day, every hour or even every minute, which made him go from being reluctant to leave this world he had lived in for several years to being eager to leave here...
So, after a short farewell party one day later, Xue Hua took Anne and Funia to say goodbye to the many relatives and friends gathered in Rogge Fortress, and embarked on a journey out of the sanctuary world on the King Insect.
