Chapter 444: Cutting off Communications and Disrupting Logistics

The Northern King secretly formed a rebel army, and while the Demonic Legion was fighting on the front lines, they cut off its logistical base in Brenia and specifically targeted the hubs of the Dark Cult.

Not only the cathedral in the royal capital, but also the bishop's churches in each diocese.

The rebels are a group of dead soldiers whose bodies and minds are controlled by the power of dark spirits.

As individuals, what makes them stronger than ordinary people is that they can burn their lives and pretend to be extraordinary.

This allows them to not be slaughtered at will even when faced with extraordinary combat power, but to have the strength to fight.

Another thing is the degree of organization, which is actually a point that the Luobo family is proud of.

The organizational structure established and cultivated during the reign of Emperor Lingwu was complete and powerful. Its grassroots members could be iron-blooded soldiers armed with faith or life-burning people kidnapped by means of confusion and control.

It is precisely because the rebels have grasped both of these well that they have been able to perform so well.

The clergy of Essos are protected by divine power and armed with money, so their fighting power is quite good.

But for hundreds of years, they have been fighting asymmetric security wars.

Either they crush heretics, nonbelievers, and serfs, or they kill monsters that endanger the normal production and living order in the region. In terms of technology, armament, wisdom and strength, they are superior to the enemies, and even completely crush them.

In this context, they were clearly not used to facing the rebels who were fearless and had the skills to fight them head-on.

Arrogant and brave generals VS fearless warriors. The overall advantage is not obvious, and they have lost the initiative. They have some geographical advantages but not much, but the rebels have taken advantage of the timing and people. They fell into a passive position and the situation deteriorated rapidly.

The rebels in particular showed great tactical acumen and discipline, they were not lingering on the battle, they were not greedy for swords, they had clear goals and went straight to the core.

This meant that the Dark Cult was unable to activate the facility's protective functions in time and lost control of the corresponding facility.

After gaining control of some facilities, the rebels began to play tricks.

The Western King faction had previously fought against the Demon Blood Legion on Giant Turtle Island. By dismantling the divine power of Essos that was attracted by the sacrificial ceremony and the Sky Temple, they obtained a lot of extraordinary resources and indigestible divine power residues.

Some of the remaining divine power was consumed in dealing with the Blood Demon, but there are still quite a few left. Now it has become an alternative ammunition in the hands of the Northern King, specifically used to harm the creatures of Essos.

The Royal Capital Cathedral shoulders the quasi-palace functions of a religious headquarters. Once it fails, it will have a huge negative impact on the reputation of the Dark Cult, whether it is for false reputation or real benefits.

Because of this, the Northern King, who received intelligence and combat resource support from the Western King, was certain that the cathedral's means of self-defense included several trump cards that required the use of divine power at great cost.

Therefore, the Northern King, who had predicted the enemy's prediction, had already prepared the remaining divine power and took the opportunity to trick the Dark Cult.

The Dark Cult did not disappoint the Northern King. When they saw that the situation was not good, they turned over a divine trump card without waiting for the city defense troops and other support forces to arrive.

Specifically, it is to use divine power to establish a protective force field that can be aggregated and controlled by individuals, so as to delay time and integrate one's own strength.

However, as soon as this card was played, the King of the North released the divine power debris.

This kind of thing, which has been processed to have properties similar to those of compressed biscuits, will instinctively absorb the power of Essos when it encounters it.

This suction was not a big deal, but the divine power was consumed too much and the protective force field was immediately destroyed.

Without the protective force field, the Dark Cult has very little geographical advantage left.

Seeing this situation, the Dark Cult had no choice but to stop using bean buns as dry food and organize as many non-combatants as possible, such as priests and godfathers, to fight against the invading party and delay time.

This is exactly what the Northern King had successfully predicted and was willing to see. As the order was issued, various rebel forces, including grassroots commanders, burned their lives and entered the "last journey" state.

This state is the state of a death warrior. If you fight against a strong enemy in this state, even if you win, you will end up with a life and death light going out.

The King of the North naturally didn't care, he would still make a profit if he returned 10 to 1. They were just scum or poor people who were tortured and half crazy, the King of the North had no guilt for using them as cannon fodder.

Mainly because he has been doing dirty work for many years in the Tianzhu world. The King of the North is a qualified Sin-Eater. He has a self-consistent logic in his heart that can override the theories of good and evil, and he believes in it without a doubt.

However, it must be said that the Dark Cult has been deeply rooted in this continent represented by Brenia for many years, and its foundation is still very deep. Even if the rebels are fearless and brave, and have proper tactics, they can basically not achieve the goal of wiping them out, and at most they can only cause them heavy losses.

The King of the North was naturally well aware of this, so from the very beginning, he never aimed too high.

Attacking the hub of faith will cause heavy losses to the Dark Cult while providing cover for key operations.

The key operation was carried out personally by the Northern King and the Demon Generals, and the target was an extraordinary facility called the Tower of Babel.

This facility is claimed to be a gift from believers to Essos, a spectacular building with certain practical functions.

However, its real function is equivalent to a signal tower, which is a key facility for the Dark Cult to establish better communication with Essos. This facility also played an important role in the Demonic Refining Corps' rapid and relatively secret assembly in the Mysterious Soldier World.

But now, it was blown up from the bottom with a loud explosion, the upper body collapsed and shattered into several pieces, and the base became ruins.

Seeing that his goal was achieved, the King of the North smiled cruelly and disappeared into the night, causing the attacks of the four Demonic Commanders who pounced on him to miss.

The commander of the Demonic Legion, Orbus, also knew the importance of the Tower of Babel, and deliberately left behind four teams of one hundred men to guard it in secret.

As a result, four hundred Fel Knights and a large number of Dark Cult Crusaders were unable to stop the Northern King's surprise attack. Emotions such as shame, worry, and fear eventually turned into howls of impotence and rage.

It must be said that the critical operation was much more honorable than the Northern King had expected.

This is because the internal problems of the Demon Refining Corps have reached a level that has seriously weakened the professional quality of its personnel.

Like these four commanders, they broke the law knowingly and fought bloody battles on the front line, but they played perverted and sadistic games in the rear.

The simple understanding is to find a few tender humans, deliberately make them angry, frightened, desperate, and painful, and then slaughter and eat them.

It is said that in this way, more negative emotional energy can be retained in the flesh and blood, making it nutritious and delicious.

It must be said that this is a bit of a twisted logic, but it was a common method used by tribes in the ignorant age. For example, the belief and divine power system of Essos already had more efficient related skills.

To put it bluntly, he is mentally twisted and kills for fun.

This activity was successfully utilized by the King of the North. The sacrifice brought goods and the scene exploded, successfully delaying the four commanders. This allowed the demolition team personally protected by the King of the North to successfully "go to base", lay high-explosive energy bombs, and blow up the Tower of Babel in one fell swoop.

In addition, this operation also helped to loosen the royal power of the Brenia people.

The Kingdom of Brenia is a general concept given to the Robo family and is an atypical theocracy.

The kingdom is just an empty title, the empire is its characteristic of constantly expanding its territory to transfer internal conflicts, and the theocracy is its true attribute.

But after a careful investigation, the King of the North discovered that although the king's power was supported by the Dark Cult, the relationship between the two sides was not good.

The main reason is that the Dark Cult is too disgusting in its actions, and they support the royal power with the purpose of being a shepherd in normal times and a scapegoat when problems arise.

To go into more detail, the Dark Cult did not want to take on the responsibility of organizing production, so they acted as the emperor in a similar way to how slave owners let certain slaves serve as supervisors.

The reason behind this is not simply the corruption and bloat of the organization and the bad atmosphere, but also because the god Essos himself has problems.

Whether it was Essos's character or the system he established that had problems is now extremely difficult to explore. It is said that it was not like this at the beginning, but what practical significance does it have? Who can still teach Essos to be a god?

The bigger the fist, the more right it is. Essos's fist is big enough. If you want to make a living by relying on it, you can only endure some bad things.

In short, most clergy of the Dark Order today feel that Essos has a changeable temperament, is moody, and is extremely difficult to get along with.

These people can't do anything about Essos, so they can only pass on their anger to others. Especially since they themselves are not good people and have a lot of bad habits, so the atmosphere inside is terrible.

However rotten it may be, they dare not neglect the power of faith that Essos wants, so they came up with the idea of ​​outsourcing the business. The Dark Cult itself focuses on faith.

Although most of the nobles in Brenia today were supported by the Dark Order, they had been involved in so many scandals and blamed so many people that all the favors had been offset long ago, and dissatisfaction continued to accumulate.

Just like not long ago, Calgon asked Brenia to provide 12 sacrifices to attack the Juntian ship.

The Dark Cult was dissatisfied with Kalgon's actions, and many of the nobles who had been killed were very dissatisfied with the Dark Cult.

One of the goals of the Northern King is to attack the node facilities of the Dark Cult to weaken its accumulated power over the years. In this way, the number of nobles who engage in petty actions will increase rapidly.

There is no doubt that the confrontation with the Demon Legion and the Dark Cult will be a protracted war.

The Northern King firmly believed that this protracted war would mainly depend on logistics and economy.

Without the continuous blood transfusion from the Dark Cult, the Demon Legion might not even be able to organize a few decent battles.

Of course, the same problems also exist in the Celestial Council.

Therefore, Luo Bo attached great importance to economic development and started farming in Kahnburg from the very beginning, which was a far-sighted move.

The other celestial warriors, by comparison, are more like a bunch of warriors who only know how to fight...
