"It's still a bit unacceptable. Maybe I'm behind the times -"
Prometheus smiled bitterly and looked thoughtful: "But Your Majesty, you said that they will be the foundation of our pantheon in the future. Are you planning to continue to increase investment in biological reproductive equipment?"
"The foundation of our pantheon is too thin. My prophet god wants to make up for this. One is the magic armor that Anthony is presiding over. I am trying to find ways to obtain the mechanical technology of the 'Terra Empire' to speed up the magic armor."
The research and development process; the other is the biological reproductive equipment. We have fully understood the technology of the Moshra people, but the technology they master is not enough for us to gain a foothold in this world. We must continue to conduct in-depth research and development based on their foundation.
It just so happens that the genes of these blood feasting demon insects are very interesting and will be a good breakthrough direction."
Li Mochen's eyes flashed: "But if we want to study more powerful biological reproductive equipment, we will definitely touch the realm of the gods, and a large number of professional talents will be needed."
Prometheus already understood what he was thinking: "So it is destined that these scholars will lack reverence for the gods, so you want to form a 'trading' relationship with them?"
"Instead of using these scholars as tools to control, it is better to treat them as transaction objects. Although the cost will be slightly larger, it can avoid possible backlash in the future and allow them to invest more enthusiasm in research. What do you think?
"
When Li Mochen said this, his expression became slightly condensed.
This is because there are dozens of sound patterns and spiritual thoughts coming out of the desert world. The sound patterns are close to ultrasonic sounds and are inaudible to humans. But the divine thoughts are majestic and vast, containing monstrous rage.
Just as they expected, the lords and insect mothers finally discovered the anomaly, and then searched the outer realm with fury, sweeping back and forth in the void with their spiritual thoughts.
But in the end, these lords and insect mothers gained nothing. Li Mochen's ability to hide was far beyond their capabilities. The two of them stood in the void, with time as a barrier around them, allowing the most powerful among these demonic insects to escape.
Or, at an extremely close distance of a thousand kilometers, neither of them can be sensed.
"Patrick's research is correct. These blood feasting demon insects should be creations that have not yet been perfected. Their mother insects have great flaws in certain abilities."
Prometheus observed the front with cold eyes, watching the more than a hundred demonic insects, whose bodies were only two to three times larger than normal humans, but covered with insect armor, scurrying around in the void.
Before the intermediate god level, the stronger these demonic insects are, the larger their bodies will be. However, after the ninth god level, the situation is reversed. The stronger they are, the smaller their bodies will be.
Although those insect mothers have extremely huge bodies, their secondary bodies are only the size of normal humans, and this secondary body can move independently from the main body, which is also their main combat ability.
There were seven of the insect mother auxiliary bodies that entered the outer realm of the void to search. They occasionally approached the place where they stood. However, when they were close to 10,000 kilometers away, they were guided away by Li Mochen's power.
The divine authority called 'Destiny' does not allow them to approach this place.
In Prometheus's view, this is their shortcoming. Their spiritual thoughts are very powerful, but they are very dull and inflexible - if they were replaced by normal god-kings, they would never be played by their master like this.
.
Of course, this shortcoming is not actually a fatal flaw. When they actually enter the battle, it is difficult for them to take advantage of it.
Therefore, the combat effectiveness of these insect mothers is still genuine.
"There are no perfect creatures in this world, Prometheus. At this level, it is already very terrifying, and it is very difficult to perfect it. If it were me, I would not continue to strengthen them. As tools
, they are sharp enough to hurt your hands."
Li Mochen commented nonchalantly, his mind always paying attention to the interior of the desert world.
Two hours after the start of the plan, the demonic insects in the desert world had died in large numbers. This was due to the more toxic 'Retribution 2' and 'Retribution 4'. At the same time, 'Retribution 3'
Viruses are also spreading wildly among them.
The hygienic condition of the demonic insects is worrying, and the nests they live in are also 'alive'. The interior is filled with various biological liquids, and this liquid not only contains many spores, but is also food for the demonic insects. It is similar to a nutrient solution
Ordinary things can allow the devil insects to maintain the lowest nutritional intake, and at the same time, they are also cultivating those spores into devil insect larvae.
This environment is simply a paradise for viruses to breed. In just two hours, the 'Punishment Type 3' virus that Li Mochen sensed was everywhere.
Then when the seven hours were up, those demonic insects began to die in droves.
At the same time, Li Mochen also sensed that his 'Shenxiao Spiritual Purple Gold Pagoda' was constantly trembling. The power of merit gathered outside the tower began to grow explosively.
Li Mochen was not surprised. He knew that this was not a gift from the will of the world to him. The 'will' of those worlds were not so smart. This was a merit, just because his current actions had influenced the cause and effect.
If these Zerg were allowed to enter the light world, Li Mochen might gain more. But he obviously would not do this, and his divinity would not allow it.
The disaster of the 'Blood Banquet Demon Insect' lasted for nine days. After 210 hours, the spread of the virus began to slow down on a large scale.
Those lords were able to accurately identify uninfected demonic insects and implemented extremely strict isolation and supervision. Then they burned the insect nests and destroyed almost all insect nests, which effectively reduced the spread of the virus.
By the 234th hour, these three types of viruses had been completely restricted. But their results were crazy enough. Nearly 95% of the low-level demon insects died of virus infection, even those high-level demon insects
Insects also died on a large scale due to accidentally eating poisonous insect corpses in the initial period.
Nearly 82% of the insect nests were destroyed - this was also the ship that the 'Blood Feasting Demonic Insects' prepared to use to cross the void.
Only the demonic insects and insect nests under the eyes of the lords were left. At this time, the entire 'Blood Banquet Demonic Insect' group had been weakened by at least 30 to 50% of its strength.
Li Mochen predicted that more mid- to high-level demonic insects would die soon. Not due to viruses, but due to hunger.
As Carlson said, those low-level demonic insects are actually more of a food. The characteristics of the blood feasting demonic insects make it impossible for them to survive solely by absorbing magic energy.
At this time, the merits on the ‘Shenxiao Lingyun Purple Gold Pagoda’ have expanded to 5.2 billion. Unfortunately, this is still far behind the fifth ‘Purple Qi of Merits’.
But Li Mochen saw a little hope. The figure of 8.1 billion merits had previously been daunting to him; but now, the remaining 2.9 billion did not seem to be an unattainable obstacle.
The merit he earns every day now is as high as 12 million. If he accumulates it now and does not use it, he can reach the fifth requirement of 'Purple Qi of Merit' in more than half a year.
Of course Li Mochen would not do this. As far as the rate of return is concerned, the merits he invested in himself, Angela and the others would undoubtedly bring more returns.
Therefore, the prerequisite for condensing the ‘Purple Qi of Merit’ is only if it does not affect their progress in cultivation.
but--
"Let's go back, Prometheus."
Li Mochen grabbed Prometheus's arm, then made another 'jump' and returned to the magic tower, his destiny.
Before leaving, Li Mochen took one last look into the depths of the desert world.
His 'jump' was not traceless, and was accurately sensed by a certain insect mother of the 'Blood Feast Demon Insect'.
At the moment he left, this insect mother was trying its best to lock the souls of him and Prometheus, memorizing their divine characteristics. At the same time, there were a total of thirteen extremely cold eyes.
His eyes were staring at them.
It can be seen that the top power of these blood feast demon insects is still very powerful. If Li Mochen hadn't left quickly enough, he would have almost been succeeded by the mother insect with a god level of 20.
I really don’t know which supreme god created it? What is the purpose of putting it here?
With this doubt, Li Mochen returned to the Magic Tower of Destiny.
"Actually, we can't hide it from them for long. The only one around here who can attack them in this way is the Bright World."
Prometheus laughed in pain: "They will keep searching, and our enemies will also be happy to see us in trouble."
"If they come in this state, that's actually a good thing. I'm quite looking forward to it."
Li Mochen smiled nonchalantly, and then ducked out of his divine kingdom.
He did not tell lies. The arrival of powerful enemies from the outside world will shift the world will of the light world to the resisters to the greatest extent. This will also greatly affect the attitude of Gaia and other native gods. Even Zeus and Odin will
It cannot be ignored. The consequences of suspending the civil war and unanimously attacking the outside world can be imagined.
For the Destiny God System, every extra day it takes to grow will make it stronger.
If it weren't for his long-standing moral concepts and his gradually solidified 'divinity', Li Mochen might have directly introduced those blood-feasting demon insects into the world of light - this would have too many benefits for him.
Li Mochen left the Kingdom of God this time and did not use the jumping divine power again, and there was no need to do so inside the bright world. With his thoughts in mind, his vision changed before his eyes.
——This is the area of China, at the foot of Kunlun Mountain.
And at the same moment, a goddess also flashed and appeared in front of Li Mochen.
"Long time no see, Your Highness Isis."
Li Mochen looked at the Holy Mother of Light in front of him and raised the corners of his lips slightly: "I have to say, Your Highness, you really have extraordinary courage."
Isis responded calmly: "This is not your territory. I guess Your Majesty, you don't want to embarrass the owner here?"
"If you are willing to pay a small price, you can still do it. The temptation of being able to cut off Horus's most important arm and brain trust is simply irresistible to me. I am sure that your previous injuries have not fully recovered. This will kill you.
Perfect timing.”
Although Li Mochen said this, his expression became serious: "Tell me, why did you invite me here? Let me guess, it is your child. Something is wrong with the Lord of Glory?"
Isis heard the words but did not answer immediately. Her face was gloomy and she stared at Li Mochen with cold eyes.
"It's easy to guess, isn't it? If Horus had no problem with him, then you should have come to me long ago."
Li Mochen smiled slightly, not paying attention to Isis's sword-like gaze.
"The current situation only requires our two families to join forces, and the positions of the two supreme gods can be directly locked. With your wisdom, you will not see this clearly, and you will not be so stupid that you are reluctant to part with a world original core. I am already in Destiny
I have been waiting for you in my hometown for a long time, Your Highness Isis, but you have never come to me."
"You're right."
Isis took a deep breath: "If it were a normal situation, I would have brokered an alliance between you and Horus half a year ago, and all the disputes in the bright world would have been settled. But something has happened now, Horus,
The Lord of Glory has a little problem, and I need your help."
"Help? Help doesn't come without a price."
Li Mochen's eyes narrowed slightly: "But you can tell me first, what is the situation?"
"I guess it's another Horus, the Horus of the Terra Empire, the Moon Wolf God. He also has a problem -"
Isis paused and said, "Your Majesty Wildenstein, you may find it hard to believe that the rebellion launched by the Church of Light in Southern America came from a divine decree issued by him personally."
Li Mochen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then fell into deep thought: "I want to know whether Chiron agreed to his proposal to jointly deal with the 'Lord of Chaos' Chaos?"
Chiron has been working on this matter for half a year, but except for Gaia who had some reaction and took the initiative to contact Li Mochen once, the other forces have not made any splash at all.
But in Li Mochen's original prediction, among the god-kings, only the Lord of Glory was the least likely to sit back and watch Chaos awaken, even more so than Gaia.
In his view, neither Horus's true form, the Luna Wolf God, nor his projection in this world, the Lord of Radiance, are incompatible with Chaos.
"No!"
Isis's chest rose and fell, and she let out a long breath: "This is exactly what I find strange."
Li Mochen already frowned: "If that's the case, then your child's situation is a bit serious, Your Highness Isis. So the suicide attacks launched repeatedly by the Truth Church in recent years are also due to his oracle?"
"No! That's been many years. Before that, Horus never let his followers die or die for the so-called 'holy war'. Andre, you should know what's going on. In the Middle Ages,
The so-called holy war is just in the name of religion. In essence, it is the conflict between two cultures, ethnic groups and living space, as well as the manipulation and provocation by the priests and nobles who stole the power of Horus. This is not based on the will of the gods.
.The situation at the Truth Religion is similar."
Isis looked at Li Mochen with mocking eyes: "The Church of Destiny was only established in recent years, but as far as I know, similar signs have already appeared, right?"
Li Mochen couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that it was more than just a sign? The fact is that the situation is more serious. With different races, different countries, different races, hundreds of powerful forces, and hundreds of gods united under the same church,
How could there not be internal conflicts?
If he falls into a deep sleep in the future, or needs to leave temporarily due to some circumstances, then the church will be divided due to interests; the upper-level clergy will use their authority to bless believers; they will even use the name of the Lord God to exclude dissidents and exclude dissidents - these situations are all to be expected.
things to come.
The current structure of Destiny Church is indeed advanced, and modern information transparency also allows believers to have more channels to understand the church and their gods. But these shortcomings cannot be avoided even by modern large companies with strict systems, let alone
Is it a church organization that is more loosely organized but has a larger structure?
Only under his personal control and suppression can the unity of the church be maintained to the greatest extent. Only when strong external enemies still exist can it be possible for the gods of destiny to work together.
"What's more, the faith there has little to do with Horus. Ahura's control over the Church of Truth is gradually increasing, and those imams, big and small, have basically blocked the communication channels between Horus and believers."
"I know that."
Li Mochen knew that this imam system was originally a back-up left by Ahura. Horus was unable to overthrow the organizational form of Zoroastrianism's missionary work in the Middle East. The consequence of following the old system and following this system is the belief in the master of truth.
The rapid expansion of countries in the Middle East has also left fatal hidden dangers.
If the Lord of Radiance could always remain strong, then this would not actually be a threat. But the current situation has given Ahura space to steal faith.
"Then how do you want me to help you? Your Highness Isis? If there is something wrong with the Lord of Radiance's consciousness, then there is nothing I can do. Also, what are you willing to pay for this? You should know that in the world of light, the gods
Among them, I am the only one willing and able to help him."
"You are right, but I am willing to put your credibility on the line."
At this time, Isis's eyes were a little hot: "I think the most appropriate way now is to make a wish. I want to use the power of your 'wishing tower'."
"Wishing Tower?"
Li Mochen immediately frowned: "It's a good idea, but this is absolutely impossible!"
He knew Isis's plan, which was probably to get Horus out of trouble by wishing that the Lord of Light would remain awake and self-aware.
Of course, he will not provide the cost of the wishing spell. The mother and son themselves have a lot of merit.
But Li Mochen refused immediately and was extremely repulsive to the proposal.
The ability of the 'Shenxiao Lingyun Purple Gold Pagoda' to fulfill wishes is not without limits. It currently supplies the cultivation-related wishes of Li Mochen and the Tianming Divine System, as well as the entire upper class of the church, and is close to the edge of operating at full capacity.
And if you want Horus to maintain his ego and sobriety, God knows how many resources of the 'Shenxiao Spiritual Luck Purple Gold Tower' will be occupied? This will also greatly weaken Li Mochen's personal strength.
This 'wish' cannot be fulfilled in a short while, it needs to be maintained for a long period of time. During this period, if Li Mochen encounters a strong enemy, he will undoubtedly lose his arm.
"You will agree, Your Majesty Wildenstein! I can probably guess your concerns, but as long as the method of 'making a wish' is clever enough, it will not have any impact on you."
Isis's voice was cold and her eyes were strong: "Everything in this world has a value, and I will come up with conditions that make your heart beat."
As she spoke, she threw something out of her sleeve, and it floated in front of the two of them.
As expected, Li Mochen's eyes were filled with surprise, and his eyes changed dramatically. After that, he stood there, meditating alone for a long time. Until half a moment later, Li Mochen smiled bitterly again: "Your courage and determination always surprise me, His Highness Isis. This bargaining chip
It really makes my heart move, but if these are not enough. In addition, you have to agree to a few conditions."
Isis had frowned deeply and looked unhappy, while Li Mochen looked unpredictable: "Your Highness Isis, I am not a greedy person, and I don't need you to come up with anything extra. There is just one thing that is important to you and me.
These are all very useful things, and I need your help and the help of the Lord of Glory——"
Isis narrowed her eyes: "If it is to dissolve the alliance, this is impossible."
If he wanted to dissolve the alliance between them, there was no need for him to use such a valuable treasure as a bargaining chip.
"Listen to me."
Li Mochen would not make such unrealistic demands. He knew that until the Lord of Glory solved his 'psychological' problem, the mother and son would not allow him to step onto the level of 'god above god' alone.
"It has something to do with Chaos Chaos. I think the Lord of Radiance in his sober state will never refuse this matter."
※※※※
The reward Isis gave was the large world core. And the wish that this person made to Li Mochen was to 'make a wish to keep Isis's child Horus awake as much as possible when the Lord of Destiny is in a non-combat state.
and self-consciousness'. In addition, by forming a contract, it is stipulated that Li Mochen must unconditionally fulfill Isis's wish under the circumstances within his ability. The time will last for one hundred years, or it will end after Horus becomes the god.
This is indeed a very clever way to make a wish. The designated object of the wish is very clear, and it can also eliminate Li Mochen's worries and burdens.
This radiant Virgin did everything for her child. Not only did she give up a treasure of this level, but she was also willing to accept this extremely unequal agreement.
What makes Li Mochen regretful is that this transaction happened a little late. If this time was earlier than the God King Trade Fair, he could directly exchange this thing for a 'Pseudo-Truth' level mythical weapon to further strengthen his own power.
strength.
But now, apart from giving Li Mochen more advantages and initiative in the future competition for gods, it has no benefit. It cannot make Li Mochen's own strength increase in any way.
Only the value of this thing itself can indeed be equivalent to a piece of 'pseudo-truth' level mythical weapon.
And after Isis's wish was completed, Li Mochen felt heavy pressure. The 'Shenxiao Spiritual Purple Gold Tower' had reached its limit, so Li Mochen had to let himself become a wishing machine to bear the 'Shenxiao Spiritual Purple Gold Tower'.
The overflowing part of the tower. From this we can also get a glimpse of how serious the problem currently faced by the Lord of Glory is.
Fortunately, he now relies on the 'Scarlet Dragon Armor' and controls a double copy of the pseudo-truth level 'eternity', otherwise he would really be overwhelmed.
After returning to the Magic Tower of Destiny, Li Mochen called his 'Secret Peeping Angel' Reinhard Heydrich over.
"Use the fastest speed to spread the news about my secret meeting with Isis, and emphasize that I have reached an 'unannounceable' agreement with Isis."
"Yes, Your Majesty! I will let Zeus and Odin know about this in the shortest possible time."
Heydrich didn't feel anything inappropriate about Li Mochen's behavior of turning his back and inserting the knife. On the contrary, he showed appreciation for it.
Once this news spreads, it means that Odin and his alliance against the Destiny God System will be on the verge of breaking up. With mutual suspicion, it will be difficult for them to work together again.
"It seems that the Lord of Glory is indeed in trouble, right? Is it a problem of consciousness?"
Li Mochen couldn't help but nodded slightly when he heard this: "It's just like you guessed, and it's more serious than you imagined."
His 'secret-peeping angel' proposed this speculation to his deputy a long time ago, and this person also has enough evidence to support his point of view.
During these six months, the internal struggle within the Guangming Old Church was very fierce. The 253rd Pope John Honorius was about to pass away, and the successor to the Pope had not been chosen for a long time. The Guangming Protestant Church also
Not to worry, great conflicts occurred between several sects.
There is also news that Uriel and Michael once had a fierce conflict over Ahura's intrusion of truth and belief, and they almost started fighting on the spot.
Then there is the Lord of Glory himself. The orders he conveys to the church through several angel kings are often contradictory to each other.
"So Isis is asking you for help?"
Heydrich's eyes flashed: "I will continue to pay attention to the Kingdom of the Lord of Glory and his church, and I will not miss any changes, Your Majesty."
Li Mochen couldn't help but smile. This "blond beast" and "black prince" from the Teutonic World War II era had never let him down.
He really needs to pay attention to the situation of the Church of Light at all times now. He cannot be careless about the mother and son just because Isis asked him for help, otherwise he will most likely be sold by them and have to count the money for each other.
And then Li Mochen discovered that Heydrich seemed to have no intention of resigning and leaving.
"There are other things to do"
"Yes, Your Majesty, there is a new situation happening in South America."
Heydrich put his hand on his chest and bowed slightly: "I suspect that the army of the Empire of Beasts wants to evacuate from Southern America, and their decision this time may be very firm."
Li Mochen was stunned for a moment, and then laughed sarcastically: "By this time, they should have woken up. But it's not that easy to just withdraw. You have already forwarded the relevant information to
Guderian, right?”
"Already forwarded to him!"
Heydrich also laughed: "The Southern America War Zone is already formulating a new combat plan, and Guderian and the others will not allow the legions of the Empire of Beasts to withdraw so easily."
※※※※
At 7:30 p.m., when the 'Twilight Offensive' launched by the Pelotas Front of the Empire of Beasts came to an end, the commander-in-chief of the seventh army group of the front, the Grand Duke of Kattu, Ebu K**burg, was at
In his headquarters, he looked at the electronic projection map in front of him with a frown. He operated it himself, constantly zooming in and out of the map, checking every detail on the front.
After three years of fighting in the world of light, this great nobleman of the Empire of Beasts has been able to skillfully control these instruments that combine modern technology and magic, but this does not help solve the dilemma he is facing now.
At this time, one of his closest subordinates, the Commander of the Thirty-fifth Army under the Seventh Army Group, Duke of Gaulo, Bernie K**burg, also strode in vigorously.
"It's like this again. Our army can only break through the third layer of trenches. It can't go on like this anymore. Your Excellency, the Grand Duke, the individual melee combat abilities of those humans on the opposite side have become very powerful. Between those so-called magic armors and
With the help of biological reproductive equipment, they are no less than our most elite warriors. Their defense lines and fortifications seem easy to break through, but they all have ingenious structures, large spans of depth, and unknown hidden things behind them, and they are extremely powerful.
power. And across the entire front, they are using similar traps to strangle our soldiers."
As he spoke, this man walked up to the electronic projection map, and then pointed directly at several locations on the map with the sword in his hand.
"The defenses here and here have been strengthened by them. There are seven bunkers that have not been discovered before. My people tried it. The casualties were very heavy and there was almost no possibility of a breakthrough. So today, not only did we not achieve any results,
On the contrary, on Line 43 to Line 54, we retreated 300 meters. The specific number of casualties has not yet been calculated, but it will never be less than 3,000. There are also a large number of servants who defected to the opposite side without firing a shot.
, but I have been very careful."
After he said this, he looked a little hesitant, but gritted his teeth and said it: "Your Majesty the Grand Duke, I think their strength was actually enough to drive our army into the sea a month ago. This is very dangerous, and they put themselves at risk."
Their claws are sharpened, but they have always been hidden behind that line of defense, almost only defensive but not offensive. On the contrary, we know that it is impossible to break through and defeat our opponents. But in the past few months, our efforts have been in vain.
There will be tens of millions——"
"Shut up, Bernie! Do you want to bring disaster to our family?"
Abe K**burg gave the Duke of Gaulo a sharp look, just as their names indicated.
The Grand Duke of Kattu and the Duke of Gaoluo, Bernie K** Castle, come from the same family, from the 'K** Castle' in the Kattu Province of the Empire of Beasts, which is the place of origin of their families.
"But I have to say it!"
Bernie K**burg's face was pale and his eyes were scarlet. He looked at his boss, the leader of the K**burg clan: "Your Excellency, the Grand Duke, I have a feeling that if the war situation continues like this, then we may be in trouble later.
It will be over soon, and in the entire Seventh Army Group, there is not only 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 attack on the entire front during this period.
Strength. But this is not enough. Your Excellency the Grand Duke, as the top twenty nobles in the empire, the war cardinal, and the future legion commander of the Hall of Valor, you have an obligation to stand up for everyone, for our soldiers, and for us.
The future of the empire! We need more warriors and more weapons."
Abu K**burg was stunned for a moment, and then he glanced at the people around him: "Everyone, get down here!"
When everyone here was leaving one after another, Ebu K**burg grabbed the Duke of Gaulo by the collar.
"Do you think the higher ups don't know? Bernie? Are you the only one who realizes this? Bernie, you idiot, if it weren't for your sister's sake, I would definitely kill you. According to the punishment method of this world's army
, shot!"
Bernie K**burg couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then his pupils froze: "I realized it but couldn't make any changes. So the situation is worse than I imagined, right? Let's talk about it, if it must be
If you want to punish me with shooting, then let me know better. Also, Your Majesty the Grand Duke, do you think I still need to shake the morale of the military now?"
"A character like yours will bring disaster to the family sooner or later, Bernie."
Grand Duke Cattu sighed softly and threw his brothers aside: "But you still underestimated those guys on the opposite side. In my opinion, they may have had enough power three months ago.
Drive us into the sea, not a month ago as you think. No, maybe half a year ago. Since the Grand Island War, they have no disadvantage in terms of top combat power. But they are not just in South America.
Instead, Liga adopted extremely conservative tactics on almost all lines of defense."
"Are they that powerful?"
Bernie K**burg looked puzzled: "You make me wonder, why do they do this? Just to simply consume our national and military power? But as far as I know, we still get a lot from Southern America.
Things. A large amount of manpower, food, mineral deposits, and magic materials. Relying on these resources, our birth rate has not decreased but increased. The rotation policy formulated by the empire is also very wise. Now we only need to add about 10 million more troops.
, a certain amount of magic armor, and use more resources on the construction of fixed fortifications, we should not suffer too much loss."
"Depleting our national power is one thing."
There was a look of ridicule in the eyes of Grand Duke Cattu: "But you have not understood the nature of this war, Bernie! This is a war of faith, not an ordinary national war."
Bernie K**burg immediately frowned: "Faith?"
"The purpose of a national war is to destroy the opponent's national strength and war potential to the greatest extent, while the purpose of a faith war is to gain as much faith as possible. And now -"
Grand Duke Cattu's voice became increasingly bitter: "In just the past six months, at least 2.3 billion people in Southern America have converted to the Lord of Destiny. This is only official statistics, and we do not
I know secretly, but I don’t know how many people will believe in it privately. Bernie, don’t look at the fact that we have built many temples in this country, and a large number of believers visit them every day, but in fact there is not even one true believer out of a thousand.
, do you know the reason?"
Bernie K**burg has some understanding: "Is it due to the war? And our exploitation of this region?"
"More or less, they have the ability to drive us out of this land, but it will not be helpful to the faith of the Destiny Church. And now, more and more people are moving closer to their church. They use the enemy's weapons to persecute,
Not only is it easier to gather people's hearts, but you don't have to blacken your own hands. How terrible is our enemy?"
Grand Duke Kattu sighed again: "This war is becoming increasingly uneconomical. We have long wanted to give up, Bernie! If we follow your idea and increase our troops, let's not talk about whether it is possible to hold these territories.
, but before that, the problems we face will worsen. In addition, according to Lord Lord's calculations, we will not be able to obtain sufficient benefits from this land in three months at most. A protracted war will only make it easier for the other party to collect
Faith. However, they have also seen through our intentions and will not allow us to leave."
"You won't let us leave?"
Bernie K**burg felt chilled all over: "You mean, they are sure to annihilate us now?"
