The fisherman druid is in another world

Chapter 403: Cold Wave Triggers Probe
The kingdom's newly arrived refugees needed resettlement, and the marshland people of the twenty-two fortress towns also needed disaster relief.

The raincoats used in previous years are unable to withstand the severe cold this winter.

Of course, in previous years, the national citizenship rights of the lower-class people in the marshland were only officially stated. In fact, every winter, people died from hypothermia, especially the elderly and children.

But Faust doesn't like to compare himself with others. He is often proud of his own strength, the skills he has mastered, and the real wealth he can mobilize. It would be too shameful if he were to fall to the point of gaining a sense of superiority by comparing himself with others.

If you don't want to lose face, you have to sacrifice your substance.

He had just rescued the impoverished people of the marshland from the abyss of genocide. It was unrealistic to expect them to make money for themselves and win face for him in the new disaster.

Faust did not take anything for granted, he went to different castles and towns to inspect and investigate.

People’s need for insulation is one thing, but the damage caused by the cold to the planting and breeding industries is even more shocking to him.

It can be said that if it were not for the use of both technological and extraordinary means, only one in ten algae and clams would be able to survive this wave of severe cold.

Professional agricultural workers analyzed and explained this. Simply put, the coldness that landed this time was too evil, and the concentration of supernatural power exceeded the standard. The coldness and darkness merged into a concept of near-death power, which had a very high killing effect on vitality.

In Faust's view, this was clearly a provocation to his teacher, Father Luo.

After all, Priest Luo's way of soul witchcraft is based on the three laws of death, the order of death, and sleep.

"From the ocean! As expected, the wealth of this Water Evil God is probably not inferior to that of the Dark One who created a large number of polluted areas in the dream dimension..."

Faust did feel fear.

As a land creature, he has an instinctive aversion to diving into the deep sea to fight.

Of course, difficulties can be overcome, and so can fear.

The real reason is actually the awe of the powerful strength displayed by the Water Evil God, not the form in which this strength is displayed.

However, despite the fear, Faust became more determined to eliminate the evil water god entrenched in Samaran as soon as possible.

After all, if the deadly ice tide that affected almost the entire coast of the Silent Sea was really the work of the Water Evil God, then this piece of swampland would be its important bridgehead.

In addition, the Emerald Sky Dragon family was able to discover the abnormalities in Dayan Mountain and the swamp, not based on the abnormalities of living creatures as their observation perspective.

The Emerald Sky Dragon has existed for a very long time and has witnessed the rise and fall of too many races and the changes of dynasties. They have become indifferent to the reproduction and extinction of living beings. They only care about the flow of supernatural power.

To be more precise, it is the appearance, disappearance, and flow of special and extraordinary powers. After all, they are also ancient beings endowed with authority by the will of the world, and they have always had the responsibility to protect nature.

This is to say, compared to the dramatic fall of the Swamp King Shamtasin, which led to the fall of the royal city and even the destruction of the entire Swamp Country, the prerequisite that led to the powerful outbreak of evil forces on such a scale is the source of the Emerald Dragon's attention.

Before, Faust always believed that this source, similar to the Hidden Flame Crack he discovered in the Great Flame Mountain, was an unnaturally generated weak point in reality leading to the prison where the Water Evil God was imprisoned.

Now he doesn't think so anymore. He thinks that the overall layout of the Water Evil God is far more complicated than that of the Fire Evil God. After all, the Water Evil God has a rich family background.

Comparing horizontally with the Fire Evil God, if the Fire Evil God was forced to show his butt, then the Water Evil God should be more inclined to take the initiative to join the game.

He even began to doubt that the Fire Evil God was exposed so carelessly that he broke into the prison kingdom of God, but ended up waking up from his sleep, which gave him the feeling of being tricked by a 'good brother' who knew him inside out.

The reason was very good, that is, to sacrifice the Fire Evil God, the soft persimmon, to occupy the hands and feet of Priest Luo, so that the Water Evil God could do a big job.

If we follow this line of thought, then the swamp is most likely not a convenient passage. Even if the Water Evil God wants to open a window in the main material world to breathe and lure the short-lived creatures to become his tools for atrocities, it should be in the deep sea, not on land.

If not an easy access route, then what is it?
Naturally, it is a bridgehead for causing trouble.

Faust thought, if this is the case, then it would be wise to eliminate it as soon as possible. The longer it is allowed to take root, the greater the loss will be for our side. Even if the other party only consumes a lot of our time, energy and materials, it will still be a big loss.

Just as Faust had this thought, the three-member council of the pseudo-Naga fell into quarrel again.

This time the quarrel was mainly about complaints.

Natus and Rumac, the two males, were effeminate and made fun of what had happened, insisting on determining who was right and wrong and who won and lost.

Shaqier naturally knew that the two were so ignorant because they were trying to absolve themselves of responsibility.

The Death Ice Tide can barely be considered a benefit to the Pseudo-Naga and Demon Mountain City, but it is a strict selection test for the True Sama Cult.

Unfortunately, based on the ideas it had always implemented, the True Sama sect, which did not receive many extraordinary resources, suffered heavy losses in this cold of death.

Especially the slaves who were used to support the True Sama sect. Basically, when they woke up one night, they were exposed like ice sculptures, and their bodies were frozen in the shanties. Not even a soft body was left.

The battle hasn't even started yet and the external forces have already collapsed.

Without these peasants, how long could the more than 100,000 True Sama followers last? They really couldn't last long. The living conditions of most of these people were only slightly better than those of slaves.

Mainly from the perspective of civilization, Zeguo was a poor country with a rotten place. The nobles of the kingdom disdained to mention it. Some even joked: "Using it as a place of exile is extremely inhumane to the exiles."

If one really wants to make things better for all living beings in such a rotten place, the conqueror will probably have to spend some time there, investing people, money, technology, and materials, and spending many years before one can start creating wealth.

How could a water evil god do such a thing? It's just like toilet paper, but you still maintain it. Is it worthy? If you are afraid that it will leak when you use it, wouldn't it be better to stack it a few more layers?

Therefore, from the very beginning, the ruling attitude was to utilize waste, win by quantity, and let those who can survive live, and those who cannot survive die.

But if there is a real large-scale layoff, like now, it will hurt.

What Natus and Rumac meant was, "Look! It's all your fault! If you had let them out earlier, they would have made the opponent exhausted by now. At least they could have consumed more of their resources. Now, they have done nothing and are useless."

Shaqier actually wanted to curse: "I have been working hard here and enduring for the country. But you guys made such a big fuss without even saying hello in advance. Do you have the basic manners of a minister in the same palace?"

But according to the ocean, they didn't want this to happen either. Marine creatures are not just soft persimmons. The ancient powerful existence refused to rule and suddenly launched a joint counterattack, causing the big baby to lose control and release a super magic effect that was no less than the forbidden spell of the Dark Forest. The other side also suffered heavy losses. There was no time to notify them.

Shaqier knew that there was probably some hidden secret here, but she had no way to denounce it.

After all, for such a big thing, they shouldn't have falsified it, but they are just accustomed to shirking responsibility like Natus and Rumark, or they deliberately let this side suffer from the disaster together, to avoid the appearance of "all relying on colleagues to set off", or even to have outstanding performance to surpass that side.

The water species, the biological weapons created by the Water Evil God, were not new species, but a group with a long history. Although they were dormant and inactive most of the time, the long years still gave rise to a good competitive wisdom within them and accumulated a lot of bad habits, and the situation of intrigue was very serious.

One of the most obvious manifestations is that there are few people who are brave enough to take on responsibilities, but many who just like to slack off.

Like now, we should have been discussing the stop loss strategy, but we ended up using it to shirk responsibility and complain. It was really a pity that Natus and Rumark said it, as if without their approval, Shaqier could have implemented the hidden defense strategy until now.

No matter what, the damage caused by the Death Ice Tide to the evil god faction was greater than that to Faust. More importantly, it aroused Faust's vigilance and further thinking, and also made him determined to attack.

Faust made two preparations for this, one in the Tide Tower and the other in himself. In addition, he also contacted Paz, the acting governor of Eagle's Nest, and transferred a team of ogre guards as a trump card.

Everyone outside knows how powerful the Werewolf Guards of Eagle's Nest are, but they don't know that the ogres have actually been modified to a higher level.

When Father Luo captured the ogres led by Paz at the Ogre Mountain in Kelleburg, their condition was actually very bad.

If you want to tell whether the ogres are living a good or bad life, just look at their appearance.

An ogre who lives a good life has a body of tendon, just like a bodybuilder on Earth, with muscular body and very low body fat content.

On the contrary, they are like the poor people in the Lighthouse Country on Earth who are fattened by syrup water and fried food. They are covered with fat and look stupid.

When Father Luo captured the ogres, including Paz, they all looked like pigs.

But ten years have brought them too many changes. In the blood of the ogres, the genes of their ancestors, the primitive one-eyed giant orcs, have been activated.

You know, this one-eyed giant beastman is capable of tearing a dragon apart, and can be understood as this universe's version of the Titan.

When this blood power was awakened, the ogres underwent a series of atavistic mutations, and were eventually shaped into a state that was relatively strong enough and in line with the current environment.

Therefore, each of these ogres is comparable to the Hulk in Thor 3, who was active as the overlord of the arena on the planet Sakaar.

In addition to their extraordinary muscle strength, their greatest feature is that they are immune to magic.

Extraordinary spells are basically ineffective, and only by coordinating with the laws can damage be inflicted.

With such a team of thugs as trump cards, Faust became five points more courageous.

When everything was quickly arranged, he took action.

The two moons hanging high in the sky, together with the diffused dark power, formed a special buff-like effect, Pale Blood.

The blood energy that Faust usually used was no longer scarlet in color, but a pale color with a slight hint of blue.

The nature has not changed, but the upper limit of condensation has been increased and it has become more explosive.

Wrapped in pale blood, Faust flew at high speed like a ghost. This was a newly derived supernatural power, which was a microcosm of Faust's continuous progress.

By now, he had entered a stage of rapid development of his own skills. This meant that he had reached a deeper level in many of the things he had learned, and was able to extract their essence and blend them into skills that were more suitable for him, rather than just copying homework.

The clever way of traveling saved Faust from a lot of unnecessary trouble.

For example, the fog of fear. When there is no prey that satisfies it, the fog of fear will become a wandering nuisance.

When it is fully committed to an individual, it has many tricks.

Faust has fought against it before, and his biggest feeling is that it is a piece of cake, with basically no fatal weakness, and it is very difficult to kill it. It is the kind of thing that you can ignore, it annoys you, you can deal with it, it disgusts you, and you have to work hard to kill it, but you will lose a lot when you settle the accounts.

Once the fog of fear lacks sufficient negative emotional input, its control over the power of darkness will be reduced, gradually becoming dull and slow, and eventually dissipating on its own.

It is precisely because of this defect that it is very tough and has a high upper limit. Its design is really ingenious, and Pastor Luo said that this application is very thoughtful.

Of course, Pastor Luo disdains the viciousness and corruption involved.

But now, Faust's approach is to avoid it if you can't afford to offend it, and just let it go as a fart. There is no need to get entangled with it.

The road was getting deeper and deeper as we walked at a fast speed. There was a hazy gray fog ahead. This man-made magic fog was always there, day or night.

Faust had explored this magical mist before, but only briefly.

Because he discovered that the fog covering the core area of ​​the swamp and even the coastal areas could be completely regarded as a fog of fear, and it was an upgraded version.

This fog does not rely on itself to find food, but is specially fed by someone. Therefore, in all aspects, it is incomparable to the fog of fear.

Faust believes that it can be regarded as a weakened version of the realm of law.

Unless you are an extraordinary group consisting of all members who are level 15 masters or above, it is best not to enter the realm of laws as a group, as you will suffer a great loss.

Especially in this magical fog field, which is very conducive to loading illusions and playing split-target strategies, if you are not careful, it will turn into a fight among your own people.

What? You have a sophisticated IFF system?

How clever? The domain is expanded by the laws, and the laws can only be studied by title-level extraordinary people, and mastered by legendary people. If you play well, you must be at least legendary+.

If you want ordinary combat power to fight against such a skilled enemy, what level of cheats should be used to achieve the goal? And is such an investment regardless of cost considered a gamble?

Therefore Faust does not summon his immortal servants at all.

Although the things that Priest Luo gave were all top-notch stuff, whether it was the treasure itself or the summoned creatures, they all had the potential to grow, and the undead servants who had followed him for a hundred days had already reached close to the upper limit of level 14, making them a truly elite team.

But in the field of law, they are still in a weak position, and Faust would rather they not appear.

Another point is that as long as you enter the realm of laws, the people who control the realm will be alarmed.

Unless it is non-material, non-energy, or possesses special powers or objects, there is no exemption.

So Faust puts on the cloak of dark fear.

This was why he had gone to great lengths to kill a cloud of fear before.

He extracted the remaining substance of the terrifying creature and mailed it to Priest Luo, asking him to help take a look and perhaps analyze some of the enemy's weaknesses.

As a result, after Priest Luo praised his creativity, he made a dark fear cloak and sent it back.

It can't be considered a treasure, it can only be said to be a special effects item.

The main goal is to get away with it by deceiving the rules and perception.

Faust had never used this trick before, just so that he could use it to the fullest extent when he needed it one day.

Tonight is its time to shine.

Faust wants to be a silent assassin. If he has the chance, he doesn't mind beheading someone or destroying the enemy's most important core facilities...
