Bell teleported back to the Bronze Fortress complex near the front line and re-established himself in the expansive Central Palace.

At present, the preparations for the rebellion are basically sufficient, and when they successfully buy off the palace staff, they can start when they have a clear insight into Siefer's hole cards.

Among the Dark Eight, General Strange Armor and General Serpent are clearly willing to help him ascend to the throne, while the others remain neutral, but generally favor him, the former lord. In addition to the Eight Demon Generals, there are also 4 ordinary Devil Generals who are loyal to Bell in the Bronze Fortress.

Bell sat on the massive bronze throne and scanned the steps.

There are dozens of high-level devils below.

The two deep hell purgators at the forefront are the Strange Weapon General and the Serpent General.

The 4 ninth-order devils behind the two of them were the 4 ordinary devil generals stationed near the bronze fortress, General Fang, General Dusk, General Blazing, and General Corruption.

General Fang and General Blazing are massive Hellpurgators, with the former having thicker fangs than most alchemists, and the latter burning with raging flames.

General Dusk was a burly man covered in bright silver plate armor and holding a spear, the orange-red light of dusk froze around him, and the black-red face under the helmet revealed his demonic nature.

The Corrupt General is a lustful and dangerous human woman with a tough red rope in her hand, clad in black and red armor, and carrying a bow and sword.

Although these ordinary devil generals are not as good as the eight demon generals, they are also powerful combat power at level 90-95.

After that, there are more than 30 high-level demons of different forms, including horned demons, ice demons, Anzu demons, and so on.

"Lord Bell, it's not good!"

As soon as Bell was about to say something, he heard a panicked shout from beside him. A little devil the size of a bat flew from the side of the palace, panting.

"What's wrong?" Bell asked.

"Lord Bell, just as you were on your way to see Syphil, a small warehouse was stolen from your vault bunker. More than 10,000 soul coins and more than 20 enchanted weapons were stolen. The little devil reported in a panic.

Bell's blood-colored pupils burst with a red light, and he looked incredulous:

"What are you kidding?"

In the entire vault bunker, there are hundreds of warehouses. The theft of 10,000 soul coins, although it was a bit distressing to Bell, did not have a decisive impact on the big plan.

But this means that the existence of the vault bunker may be exposed!

The bunker was nominally a dilapidated building where some devil's wood was stored on the front lines of the bloody battle, but under Bell's deliberate arrangement, it was used as a vault for Bell's personal property and ordnance.

In order to cover up the vault bunker, Bell went to great lengths to make sure that no one but his own henchmen knew how important the bunker was. The guards inside, although not necessarily strong, are all soldiers who are absolutely loyal to Bell.

Bell's gaze swept over the dozens of high-level devils below the steps, and there was a little more suspicion in his eyes when he looked at them.

"What the hell is going on!"

"Who leaked the secrets of the vault bunker?"

With Bell's roar, a storm of blazing fire and smoke raged throughout the palace.

At the foot of the stairs, dozens of high-level devils looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

"Please calm your anger, Lord Bell." Under the steps, the snake general, who had always been able to speak, hurriedly persuaded:

"In my opinion, the existence of the vault bunker should not have been discovered by Siefel or your other competitors.

"Maybe one of the devils who manages the bunker is a watchman who steals from himself. Or maybe an adventurer from another plane infiltrated it and stole something. ”

Bell took a breath and quickly calmed the anger in his chest, and the red light in his blood-colored pupils dimmed slightly:

"Probably. If Siefel had discovered the vault bunker, there was no reason to steal just such a small bit. ”

After saying that, Bell clenched his fists and slammed them on the armrest of the throne.

"Anyway, tighten the defense of the vault bunker during this time!"

··················

Castle of the Lords, inside the ceremonial room.

Sifer told the Radiant Girl about the series of experiences just now.

"So, what is that mysterious power? What are those sounds and images? ”

Seefer's face was full of confusion as he asked the goddess a question.

"Well, Siffer, if my understanding is correct······ What you just felt was the power of faith. Probably something to do with the game you made. The shining girl's hand groped her chin, and her pure white clothes shook gently:

"Although you are not a god yet, as the Devil Grand Duke, you have still absorbed and utilized the power of these beliefs to a certain extent, and used them to neutralize the effect of plane erosion."

The power of faith?

After hearing this answer, Sifer was further confused:

"Players love to play games, and I understand that. But you don't believe in games as gods, do you? ”

"Siffer, your understanding of the power of faith is too narrow." The Radiant Maiden shook her head, sighed lightly, and her expression became a little more serious, showing a serious look:

"The gods who bring calamity, woe, and death will gain faith because they are feared;

"The god who rules the storm will reap faith because the fishermen ask for his mercy before going out to sea.

"So the people who provide you with the power of faith don't even have to be players, even if you're interested in Dawn through video or other means, it's just as likely that you'll gain a small amount of faith."

I see. Sifer nodded slightly, a little more enlightened, and a little more understanding of the laws of the gods.

"But, Siefer. Theoretically, in order for players and cloud players to provide you with faith, you should have a clear image or symbol in the game, or even be able to represent the game, so that the power of faith will converge on you. ”

Hearing this, Siefel frowned, slightly puzzled.

He shouldn't have officially appeared in front of the players yet, right?

Reminiscent of the cute version of his two-dimensional headshot that appeared in the previous game, Siffel suspected that his ability to absorb the power of faith normally might have something to do with Lulu's work some time ago.

Lulu, you're really, doing all the good things······

"Thank you for your advice, God of Dawn, Mother of Radiance, and Radiant Maiden. During the last month of hell, I will try to gather the power of faith. ”

Sifer bowed gently to the celestial god.

The Radiant Maiden smiled, and there was a bit of concern on her face:

"You've worked hard, Sifel, you've carried too much."

As she spoke, the Radiant Maiden's expression froze, and her white hand stretched out to Siefer's eyebrows:

"To make it easier for you to deal with Bell, I give you another blessing."

The girl's index finger touched Siffer's forehead. In the next second, Siefel felt that his body and mind were washed by pure light, and the tiredness and pain caused by the illness just now were swept away.

A bright light burst into his eyes, and the world in front of him suddenly became a little clearer.

The message of this blessing was also poured into Siefer's mind.

The blessing is called [Shining Eyes]. From now on, Sifel's eyesight has greatly improved, and with a glance, you can tell the level of almost all powerful enemies.

Magic that quickly judges the level of a high-level opponent is rare, otherwise Bell would not have been afraid of Siffer's strength all the time. The previous game system designed by Siefel also had this feature, but it was limited to enemies up to level 60. On top of that, Siphiel can also extend the potency of this blessing to players, and each player can judge the level of legendary monsters with just one glance.

"Thank you for your blessings, Radiant Maiden."

Sifer bowed to the goddess again.

He knew that the blessings of the gods also had some limitations, and might even permanently diminish the power of the gods, and they could not be delegated casually. Normally, if you want to get the blessing of the gods, you need to exchange a lot of merits, but the Radiant Maiden just gave it to him.

"Please protect yourself, Siffer."

The Radiant Maiden didn't seem to intend to change her way of speaking at all, and she bowed her head slightly, and her figure dispersed.

···

Farewell to the Shining Girl. Siefel fell into thought.

He began to recall the sounds he had heard and the images he had seen, using the Seraph's extraordinary memory abilities to distill the information.

According to Siefer's understanding and the teachings of the Radiant Maiden, these sounds and images are the things that come to mind of those "believers" who have emotional fluctuations because of "Dawn" when they provide the power of faith. It could be what they're saying or seeing, or it could be part of their memory.

Among the thousands of pictures, the most confusing thing for Siffel is undoubtedly an extremely strange blood-red picture.

In this moving image, fire descends from the sky, turning the morning light into twilight. The flames covered the streets and buildings, destroying everything on the ground, leaving no corpses behind.

"The city is burned by fire······

"Why do people think of such images when they play Dawn?"

Siefel was able to clearly know that this was an image extracted from his memories and seen with his own eyes. Neither a product of imagination nor part of a movie.

Because he could even hear the cries and weepings from it, and he could feel the extreme sadness of the "believer" as he recalled the image. If it weren't for the intense pathos that seemed to tear apart the heart, and the intense determination contained in this fragment of memory, Siefel would not have been able to sift through the thousands of images.

"Could it be that something happened somewhere in the Blue Star?"

Siefel couldn't judge for a moment.

He leaned back in his chair and pondered, connecting to the Internet in his head.

When he opened the online interface in his mind, Siefel saw that a "cheater account" with whom he had previously exchanged words on the forum had published a new post.

The netizen with the nickname "From the Future" posted a new post called-

"If I say that the world will be burned by heavenly fire in more than 3 years, do you believe it? 》

When he saw this title, Siefer's heart tightened.

This time, Siefel did not have any more disputes with this netizen, he just replied in the shortest text under this post with zero reply:

"I believe it!"
