Lord of Flames - Chapter 209

Chapter 209: Military expansions! Open the Abyss!

Time passed day by day.

The reclamation of the Dark Forest was still ongoing.

The Elven Goddess tried to contact the Lord of Flame through her followers, but the Lord of Flame didn’t respond.

Fortunately, the Greenland Elves still had faith in her. When the Lord of Flame got 55% of the faith from the Greenland Elves, her faith slowed down.

This made the Elven Goddess sigh in relief.

However, she was still trying to contact the Lord of Flame. She would often help the Elves and try to ease the fatigue!

“I only need 30%. No, I can’t be too greedy. I can accomplish two things.”

The Elven Goddess thought.

But from time to time, she felt that if she really couldn’t do it, he could do it.

Because the Lord of Flame did not respond, she felt that the Lord of Flame was exceptionally cold. Such a cold God was more powerful than she had guessed, strong enough to ignore her.

That was the reason she felt she could not be greedy

“Such a cold God, I wonder if he’s a male God or a Goddess.”

The Elven Goddess thought again.

……

In the south, after a month, the Xi Ling Kingdom was still bustling with activity.

Those three decrees were too powerful.

As a result, a large area of land had been reclaimed in the entire Xi Ling Kingdom.

Before a civilian could reclaim land, they had to report to a nearby civilian. they had to get permission before they could reclaim the land.

The people sent by Queen Luo Ying roughly divided the land that could be reclaimed within the Xi Ling Kingdom, so there would not be excessive damage to the environment.

Within the Yan Nation, it was also being reclaimed.

Cattle, sheep, and horses had been raised on a large scale on the grassland where the werewolves used to live.

The number of horses was half that of cattle and sheep.

Cattle and sheep were naturally used for food, and they also produced a large number of dairy products. Magic played the most important role in keeping this place fresh!

Due to this, the Yan Nation’s dairy products sold well in the Xi Ling Kingdom.

At the same time, teams of Lion warriors were sent to the Xi Ling Kingdom every day.

The number of Lion Warriors had reached 60,000.

The Fox Lady Qing Ling had brought a thousand dwarves from Miracle City of Gods.

The one thousand dwarves had to help the Royal Army and the Temple Army of the Xi Ling Kingdom rebuild their equipment.

It was not reinvented.

They were used to passing through the Lava Flame and to give that equipment a better magic defense.

After more than a month of reintegration, the Royal Army of the Xi Ling Kingdom basically became a devout believer in the Lord of Flame.

The Church’s army was reorganized.

Among the original Temple Knights, they were willing to stay behind and were reorganized after their faith in the Lord of Flame reached the standard.

Those who didn’t want to stay were, not forced to do so. They could go to reclaim land or do business like the commoners.

After witnessing the changes in the Xi Ling Kingdom, the Knights realized that the Lord of Flame was not only stronger than their original God.

Some of Lord of Flame’s ideas were probably much more advanced than their original God.

Everything their original gods had done was to gain faith.

Other than faith, the Lord of Flame was also helping the Xi Ling Kingdom develop better.

That was the reason 90% of the Temple Knights remained under the leadership of the Dwarf.

They didn’t have to mention the Magisters.

After reorganization, the Temple Knights were still in the thousands.

The Temple Knights would keep five thousand men.

When their armor was forged and burned with special lava, they had a red flame symbol.

They were even better at magic defense.

Lin Yan also cracked the blessing of the Gods on their shields through his virtual godhood.

Then, Lin Yan added two blessings.

This meant that these thousands of Temple Knights could block two forbidden-level attacks or one legendary-level attack!

The Temple Knights could clearly sense the power of the Lord of Flame with that.

After Lin Yan’s blessing, the Temple Knights believed in the Lord of Flame.

……

When the nobles of the Xi Ling Kingdom received a large number of gold coins from the trade with the Hun River Principality, Queen Luo Ying used her trump card.

That was to deprive the nobles of their right to arm the army!

The nobles could still keep their own private armies.

The maximum number of Barons was 100.

The maximum number of Viscount Nobles was 500.

The maximum number of count-ranked nobles was 2,000.

The maximum number of Marquise-ranked nobles was 5000.

Apart from the private army, they no longer had the right to arm the redundant army!

This was to centralize power.

If this decree had been issued a month ago, it would have met a lot of resistance, but now, there were few nobles who opposed it.

Some of the small nobles even breathed a sigh of relief.

Having their own private army was good for small and medium-sized nobles.

Once the army would recruit during the war, they would get armor, weapons, and pay. Like the last time when they were recruited, every noble would pay a lot of money.

This would save them money.

Only some Nobles knew they were cutting off their conscription rights.

However, over the past month, these Nobles gained a lot of gold from their trade with the Hun River Principality, so they could cut it off. Lord of Flame was so strong that they were not qualified to oppose him.

Some Nobles even took the initiative to reduce the number of private armies and use the extra money to expand the merchant group.

……

After the military power was fully concentrated, the Xi Ling Kingdom expanded its Royal Army.

In the past, the Royal Family couldn’t raise too many soldiers, but now they could.

There was no shortage of food or gold coins.

The Royal Army was expanded to 400,000.

The local army had also increased considerably.

“The fighting strength of the Aristocratic Army isn’t strong, and there are many hidden dangers. Now, it’s better for these aristocrats to trade, so that business can flourish.”

In the Temple, Meng Ying analyzed.

Although Luo Ying was the Queen of the Xi Ling Kingdom, many of the decrees were created by the Holy Maiden.

Their goal was very simple, to make the Lord of Flame’s kingdom stronger and more prosperous.

That country was not large in territory, but its population was strong.

Its military strength was hard.

The strength of the economy was the foundation and inside information.

The more prosperous the kingdom was, the more faith in their Gods would receive under the same population. That was certain.

In the past, the God of the Xi Ling Kingdom had used this Kingdom too lightly.

Over 20 million people, if they were to make good use of it, that God had occupied for more than a hundred years, and wasn’t defeated by the God of Horton Kingdom.

“Luo Ying, let’s continue to expand the army. When my God’s enlightenment arrives, we will attack the Horton Kingdom.”

Meng Ying said.

Luo Ying nodded.

During this month, she spent a lot of time in the Xi Ling Kingdom, while Meng Ying was still moving towards a higher rank.

……

As for their God, Lin Yan was in a Demonic Abyss.

“After analyzing this Abyss, we should be able to open a line.”

Lin Yan said to him.

During this period, Lin Yan was still locating the Abyss through the analysis of the Demonic Abyss.

After the Abyss crack closed, it was difficult to enter the Abyss because of the existence of the barrier, and another reason was that the Abyss could not be found.

Twenty years after the Abyss crack was closed, the Abyss was like a floating balloon, its relative position to the Continent of Gods seemed to be constantly changing.

After so much time had passed, the virtual Godhead roughly outlined the Abyss. It could be said that the barrier was no longer a problem.

What was left was to locate the Abyss.

Finally, on this day, Lin Yan revealed a look of joy.

“Found it.”

He used his Divine energy to drive the virtual godhead. With his contact with the Abyssal Succubus Natasha, he quickly opened a line.

Connected to the Abyss.

This line was not enough to support him, because it was too fragile. Once Lin Yan passed and this line broke, Lin Yan would fall to nowhere.

So, Lin Yan didn’t take the risk. Instead, he followed a long-established plan.

He had to contact Succubus Natasha first!
