12. The Great Demon Cave
The Avalon Empire under Andreel's feet developed even more rapidly, and after tens of thousands of years, the remnants of their country finally had their own country, and their enthusiasm for building their homes was unstoppable, and thanks to Elevan, this vast and sparsely populated place, every civilian had a piece of land that was enough to live in, and having land meant having hope and hope, and with hope, life would gradually get better.

For a country that is on the rise, there is nothing better than this.
Eliven also knew that His Majesty Adolf not only vigorously developed the Turanian Knights, the main army of Avalon, but also quietly invited the super-level powerhouse, Archduke Marlborough, who was once one of the patriarchs, to the Avalon Empire, in fact, when Eliven had just returned to Andriel through teleportation, he felt the faint aura of death of the Grand Duke of Marlborough, but the two tacitly did not visit each other.
For Elivan today, it is clearly more useful to hide than to expose his tracks.
After the news of his return spread by those mercenaries in the southern Xinjiang, an opponent hidden in the shadows, enough to kill the weak god head-on, would definitely allow everyone to think carefully about the risks involved before trying to deal with Avalon and Andreel.
So now the whole world seems to be calm, and there is nothing worthy of Eleven's attention.
But in fact, the fuse of the war of faith has been lit, and according to the information gathered by the intelligence department of the Massanos School of Magic, several large and small churches in the human world seem to have been prepared to take the big demon cave entrenched in the middle of the continent.
Speaking of which, the power of the Great Demon Cave is also peculiar, in the past five years, it has been like a black sea, frantically absorbing the bad guys from the entire continent, and in an unknown way, twisting these bad guys into a rope, after the Bled Kingdom was included in the "Little Demon Realm", these greedy guys have set their sights on the territory of the Duchy of House.
In a sense, this is already the beginning of the war of faith.
The Duchy of House is not a weak chicken country like the Kingdom of Brad, with the help of the Bordeaux Chamber of Commerce, it has blossomed all over the continent, and has attracted big forces like the Temple of Waujin to settle in, and now the Duchy of House, among the countries of Northern Xinjiang, although it is not as big as the Marlborough Strait Alliance or the nascent Avalon Empire, it is already the hegemon among small countries.
Therefore, if the cultists want to break through this country, the difficulty will definitely rise in a straight line.
At least they have to find a way to kill the sacrificial group and knights of the Wauquin Temple first, the goddess Wauquin moved the current Great Temple from Miette to Bordeaux City a few years ago, that is to say, this is already the holy place of the entire world's Waujin believers, and even the Duchy of House is about to become a force similar to the "Order State". In the space of five years, the Temple of Waujin alone had formed three Knights of Divine Grace and a sacrificial order, plus the standing military strength that the Principality of House itself possessed. Definitely a tough hedgehog.
It stands to reason that cultists generally don't pay attention to such big forces, but there is no way to do it in the Great Demon Cave, and the rapid expansion of the past five years has overcrowded the Little Demon Realm, even if the Dark Blade Council and the Chaos Cult blatantly use the souls of living people as sacrifices, they can't stop those madmen and psychopaths from defecting to the "Great Evil God".
The opening of the lock of the world is not entirely a good thing, while rapidly increasing the power level of the entire world, it has also magnified the dark side of the hearts of some people who are not strong in self-control, and it is not obvious at first, and when the first wave of the overall power of the world comes, the number of these madmen and psychotics has suddenly surged.
It's one thing to take one's own life, and it's not the same thing to take someone else's life, this kind of person will be expelled anywhere, and five years ago, after the god realm escaped into the present world, the whole world was almost completely divided by the gods who appeared, these villains who were disliked by the good gods, in addition to going to the barren stone plateau and the misty mountain range, the doomsday volcano, which is a forbidden place like the three nostalgic places, can only get a chance to live and become stronger.
But the number of evil gods is small, and even the most outstanding gods of tyranny and murder among the evil gods are not unscrupulous guys, and becoming their believers is, in a sense, the conditions for assessment are more difficult than those of becoming believers of good gods.
The wandering villains have no choice, and in the end they can only defect to the "Great Evil God" who does not need to dedicate their faith, and is extremely generous, and very powerful, this lord had better speak, as long as you are willing to enter the Little Demon Realm, you can get its protection, but how you survive in the chaotic and abnormal Little Demon Realm, it has nothing to do with him. If you are lucky enough to get the power seed given by the Great Evil God, it is not impossible to become a high-level professional overnight.
Under the influence of this "trend", there are more than hundreds of people who enter the big demon cave every day, and after five years of accumulation, the small demon world, which was originally very wide, has erected large and small cities, crowding the small demon world, in order to compete for territory and population, the villains generally chose the most convenient way, so the current little demon world is more than ten times more chaotic than before.
Even if it is a high-level warlock who accompanies demons, in fact, they also advocate order secretly, especially in the dark world, it seems to be chaotic, but in fact, the default order is more important than anything, after the new madmen and villains made a mess of the little demon world, the Dark Blade Council and the Destruction Order, two good opponents who love and kill each other, launched a purge operation at the same time for the first time, slaughtering one-third of the small cities at one time, which suppressed the growing chaos.
However, in order to prevent this purposeless chaos from happening again, the warlocks held a meeting for three days and three nights, and finally came up with a solution.
All disputes are because the territory is too small, which is easy to solve, since there are so many people who have defected to us, then we can just find a way to expand the territory! And even if it fails, it can consume a large part of the restless guys, killing two birds with one stone.
So the decision to go to war with the Duchy of House was made so hastily.
In fact, since the southern countries, including the aliens, have been hoarding heavy troops on the border of the Great Demon Cave, the villains will not turn their attention to the south where the power of the temple is already complicated, and in comparison, the Duchy of House, which is not far from the Little Demon Realm, has become the most convenient target.
By the time Elivan returned, the war had been going on for almost three months, and the Duchy of House had not been harmed, but it had already lost one-fifth of its territory near the Great Demon Cave due to the frenzied offensive of the cultists and the attack of the demon army sent by the Darkblade Council to support it. Fortunately, there were not too many people living in that land, otherwise the loss of population alone would have been enough to make the upper echelons of the Principality of House suffer a lot.
