Chapter 387: Demon Invasion
"How so?"
"I have to leave!"
This powerful adventurer left in a hurry after killing a few imps, he had come to the border kingdom to seize a city so that he could live a happy life, but his intentions failed.
However, it was his departure that made it known to everyone that the Frontier Kingdom had fallen and that the demons were rampant - so the churches of the good gods who received the news immediately sent their own armed forces to the Border Kingdom to destroy these demons who were killing everywhere.
Unfortunately, the priests of the good gods found that these demons seemed to be fundamentally different from the demons of the bottomless abyss when they arrived in the border kingdom - the holy light and holy water summoned by the good gods could not hurt them, but the sword was easier to kill them.
As a result, the Church was suddenly excluded from the main force of war, and the warriors and knights of the kingdoms began to shine - only what they did not know was that these demons killed by the warriors and knights were nothing more than imps born of the lowest level of the Burning Legion, born of evil souls.
The strength of these imps is not strong, they can only shoot fireballs, and their physical strength is no more than that of a low-level adventurer.
Suddenly, the news of the victory in front reached the capitals, and the emperors began to fantasize about the increase of their territory, and the generals and warriors who fought in front were also rewarded with large amounts.
However, one of the deity's bishops expressed his opinion on this blind good news, believing that the demons killed now were too weak, and that if he encountered a stronger demon, it was likely to be a different situation.
Unfortunately, in the ensuing war, the bishop's prophecy was soon fulfilled.
Everything changes when warriors and knights encounter more powerful demonic guards, clad in armor and wielding massive weapons that can often slash enemies in half with a single charge.
And like the imps, the magic of the good gods had no effect on them—such a powerful opponent that was almost immune to both war demons and demons made the kingdom and the church panic.
The Queen of Pain, who was instructed by Ron, immediately launched a counterattack when she encountered a new enemy - compared to civilians whose souls can only give birth to imps, most of the souls of the warriors can be transformed into demon guards, which can be used to fill the demon legions that are constantly being consumed.
As a result, even though the armies of the various kingdoms no longer attacked the border kingdoms occupied by demons, the demons inside began to attack frequently - unlike the imps in the past, these attacking demons have all been composed of demon guards.
However, on the fifth day, the human forces were forced to retreat to the fortress, and even if the demon legions continued to pursue, even killing civilians in front of them, they did not dare to come out to fight.
And the faith of some of the good gods and priests who accompanied the army was gradually crumbling - the magic that used to be good for demons had no effect on the demons that appeared this time, which made them wonder if the gods they believed in had fallen or were in league with the demons.
And once doubts arise about the gods, the priest can no longer talk about piety, and naturally loses the ability to perform divine magic—a vicious circle arises, and more and more priests lose their faith and are unable to perform divine magic.
It wasn't until a coincidence that a little imp was caught by the human side and dozens of priests cast a magic spell that the protective chaos in the realm of order cast by the priest of the god of guards, Haim, caused fatal damage.
In fact, this is not a lethal killing spell, but a protective spell, but when used on the imp, it has caused unimaginable results.
This fact shocked the spirits of the priests, and the gods in the kingdom of God also exhaled - after all, every priest needs to be cultivated for a long time, and a few priests may not be rare with medium divine power, but with weak divine power, the death of a few priests is enough for them to be painful.
Once again, the war has changed - after dozens of death-defying magical spells, the Churches have finally come to the conclusion that this group of demons can only be killed by the Guardian Divine Arts, who possess the Orderly Faction Gods of the Order Realm.
Eventually, the priests of Heim, the god of guards, Hall, the god of revenge, and Ilmat, the god of suffering, became the protagonists of this war.
However, as the war progressed, a new class appeared on the demon side, a beast-shaped demon with no eyes and dozens of tentacles, leaving the priests no longer invincible - they could interrupt the priest's prayers and even have some of the ability to blaspheme the sacrifice, which made the war stalemate for the second time.
And with this opportunity, Ron finally understood which rules he should pursue - his eyes were secretly on the kingdom of the vengeful god Hale, and began to wait for the right time.
............
As a weak divine power, the god of revenge, Hall's priesthood is revenge, retribution, and just rewards and punishments, but he only supports the revenge of believers and does not give them the power to take revenge, and just rewards and punishments are more righteous god Tyr, so there has been no development for so many years.
However, this time the demonic invasion had greatly increased the amount of food he had eaten, and even the godhead had begun to show signs of being slightly promoted, which made him feel happy.
He sat on his skull throne and looked around his kingdom of God, the court of judgment in the wasteland of destruction and despair.
It's a pitch-black castle with marble walls depicting frost and cave-like halls amplifying all footsteps. The castle was surrounded by spears and heads of despair, bringing an atmosphere of despair and terror around the castle.
There are not only the enemies killed by the successful revenge, but also the avengers themselves.
"Perhaps, it's time to add a few more prayers. ”
Smiling and rubbing his favorite skull throne made from the finest white bones, Hale began to think about plans for the development of the kingdom of God, and even began to think about how to interact with other gods after being promoted to medium divine power.
For thousands of years, when the Magic Empire collapsed, Hale was promoted to godhood by obtaining several Godhead shards.
Thanks to his efforts, his godhead has also reached the weak level of divine power - but he has not accepted the recruitment of several gods and has not become their subordinate god, so he has suffered constant blows, and his divine power and godhead have been greatly reduced.
Now the opportunity of the demonic invasion is enough to make Hale rise again, and when he rises again, Hale begins to consider whether to become a servant of the god of justice in order to be protected.
After all, promotion is not easy, but regression is easy - finally there is a second chance, and Hall does not want to lose it again, it will be too painful.
