Chapter 187: Those who count people also count

The trickery of the Lord of Lies has caused great harm to the First World, and the sudden fall of the Kingdom of Ensdinger has put everyone in other human kingdoms at risk, and some human kingdoms have greatly strengthened the identity restrictions on people entering their borders in order to prevent the infiltration of True God cultists, even at the cost of damaging the country's trade economy.

For a time, the entire First World was full of rumors, and there was a great sense of tension about returning to the era of demon invasion.

The Kingdom of Westmar, which is closer to the Kingdom of Ensdinger, has begun to prepare for the second large-scale invasion of demons.

On the other hand, the territory of Nestinger is already full of mounds and ruins, and the hard-hit areas covered by the Evil Blood Wasteland have been depopulated, and are full of mad spider demons and demonic creatures that have been corrupted and mutilated by the demonic land.

The city of Ensdinger is filled with a large number of ferocious undead spirits and all kinds of terrifying necromantic monsters, and this once prosperous and gorgeous silk capital has now become a terrifying wasteland that is forbidden to the living.

A large number of Ensdinger refugees who had narrowly escaped the catastrophe due to their distance from the royal city were forced to flee their homeland and form a river-like flow of people to venture through the treacherous wilderness and jungle to seek refuge in other human kingdoms.

However, due to the fear of the True God cultists entering the country in the flood of refugees, most countries closed their borders and declared that refugees were not welcome to take refuge in their own countries, except for Harogas, located in the far north of the Western Continent, and Rog Fortress in the mountains of the barrier opened their doors to refugees.

However, the location of Harogas in the north, where the snow-capped mountains and the climate that challenged the limits of human existence greatly hindered the refugees' northward journey.

The Rogue Fortress, which is located in the Barrier Mountains, is located in the Land of the Four Wars, and the Blood Wasteland itself is surrounded by demons, coupled with the barrier mountain range's moats, making it even more difficult for refugees to reach the Rogue Fortress smoothly.

To add insult to injury, all the ports of entry into Ensdinger have been corrupted by demonic soil, leaving refugees unable to take ships to seek refuge on the eastern shores of the Eastern and Western Continents, so they can only choose a closer refuge on their own feet.

As a result, the refugees in Ensdinger are now left with the last option that is more in line with their actual needs - the "Rolling Log Fortress" in the north-east of Ensdinger.

Originally built to defend against demonic invasions from the Land of Fear, the fortress was home to more than 12,000 members of the Eastern Legion of the Kingdom of Ensdinger, making it a purely military fortress.

It simply did not have the capacity to accommodate a large number of refugees, not to mention that the supplies in this fortress-like fortress had previously relied entirely on domestic transportation.

This meant that there simply weren't enough resources inside the fortress to feed so many people.

However, even with all the difficulties, the commander-in-chief of the Rolling Log Fortress had no choice.

After all, those who fled were refugees from their own countries, and many of them even had relatives of soldiers under their command, so they couldn't be turned away, right?

In desperation, the Rolling Wood Fortress had no choice but to send a request for resources to the council and the surrounding human settlements, hoping to at least get enough supplies to feed these refugees in this cold wasteland near the far north.

After receiving their call for help, the first to respond was still Harogas in the north.

Hallogas and Enstinger have always been friends due to geographical factors and geographical circumstances, and Ensdinger was the first human kingdom to respond when Halorgas was besieged by Baal's Legions of Hell.

So this time, the bold barbarians of Harogas almost did not hesitate to lend a helping hand to their neighbors in great distress.

They sent a large convoy of much-needed supplies to the Rolling Timber Fortress, accompanied by 500 experienced stonemasons.

These stonemasons will help the Ensdinger establish a temporary shelter around the Rolling Wood Fortress so that it can accommodate more refugees without destroying its own defenses.

All in all, the tragedy of the Kingdom of Ensdinger has brought the newly restored order of the First World into chaos again, and the initiators of all this are now hiding in a dark corner and secretly rejoicing in their evil intentions.

However, as the saying goes, "Those who count people also count", and Beria, who was hiding in his palace of nothingness and proudly sketching a majestic blueprint for his future, could not have imagined that everything it did in the First World was actually in the eyes of others

At this moment, in the midst of the brimstone-filled and filthy Mixed Purgatory, in the middle of an abyss filled with souls howling in pain from hatred, there was a huge throne that seemed to be made entirely of steel thorns and barbs that made people shudder at first sight.

The throne of steel thorns was bound in mid-air by hundreds of chains also covered with burrs and sharp barbs, the ends of which were deeply embedded in the stone walls of the abyss on both sides, holding the throne firmly in place.

However, from time to time, some hideous grimaces that screamed in pain suddenly appeared on the "stone walls" on both sides of the throne, and where the chains were pierced, there was often a bright red liquid gushing out of them

The abyss was incomparably deep and dark, countless howling souls were constantly struggling upwards from the bottom of the abyss, and many angry souls surrounded the huge throne of thorns, frantically attacking the terrible demon god floating on the high chair that was not so much a throne as a torture instrument.

This monster with a hideous and terrifying face, covered with craggy black bones and sharp barbs, is one of the three masters of hell - the Lord of Hatred, Mephisto!

It looks like a giant skeleton with a pair of chain-wrapped bony wings behind it, and it has no lower body

Mephisto's spine bones are surprisingly long, which makes it look like it has an iron whip-like tail.

Its body is thin, stiff and skinless, and its dark gray muscles are exposed, which makes its appearance particularly sinister and terrifying.

Mephisto's skull was covered with a pair of large horns, which were so large that they were even larger than the upper part of its body.

It has a pair of elongated, sharp claws with barb-like nails at the tips of the claws, which seem to have grown specifically for torturing people

At this moment, Mephisto was holding a ball of lightning with these thorny claws, and laughed in satisfaction while enjoying the "tribute" that the souls around him had offered him—hatred.

"I can't imagine that this 'brother' of mine has laid out such a vast game in the First World, and now it seems that it really has a chance of success."

"But it's a pity that although it's a little clever, the big picture is there, and after all, it's only for people to make wedding dresses"
