Don't call me evil god

Chapter 160 Passive protection? Active elimination!
Pete is more cautious about protecting his territory than Old Bill.

He was not as optimistic as Bill, who believed that monsters were easy to deal with and could be easily destroyed.

In the battle before arriving at the Misty Valley, he and Gale were able to deal with it easily because they were on the outskirts of the Dark Forest and most of the monsters were level 0 and level 1.

The magic released by a third-level wizard is already incredibly powerful.

What's more, they have lifted the spell slot restriction. Many other adventurers can only take detours when they see a small-scale monster nest, but Pete and his team can directly kill it with level 3 magic.

But it’s different deeper in the dark forest!

Monsters of level 2, level 3 and even higher are lurking in the depths of the forest, where the pollution caused by evil gods is more serious, and therefore more terrifying deformed monsters can be born.

Pete was worried about whether there would be attacks from higher-level monsters.

Fortunately, the mission oracle sent by Nowen made him feel relieved.

[Mission: Guarding the Altar of Creation]

[Description: The gray fog is about to dissipate, and a large number of monsters are approaching the creation altar. They will gather near the Misty Valley and launch an offensive in 7 days, intending to destroy the miraculous creation of the God of Knowledge.]

【Target】

Kill 0-level monsters 0/185
Kill 1-level monsters 0/31
Kill 2-level monsters 0/7
[Reward: Activate a series of tasks for territory development and construction]

"Praise the God of Knowledge!"

"It would be easier if we knew the number of monsters!"

What Pete was most worried about, the emergence of irresistible high-level monsters, did not happen.

The most frightening thing about monster attacks is actually unclear intelligence.

This is especially evident during the monster red tide.

Without knowing the number and strength of the attacking monsters, it is impossible to prepare the corresponding defensive forces in advance.

If you are not prepared enough, your defense will be overwhelmed;
Excessive preparation will result in a waste of combat power.

Knowing the scale of the attack in advance is like having full map vision during a war, which provides a huge intelligence advantage.

However, even without the attack of high-level monsters, Pete was still worried about the scale of the attack.

Because according to his observations in the past few days, with the combat effectiveness of the 30 believers in the valley now, except for him, Gail, Brandon, Miranda and Lena, although the others can barely be regarded as tier 1 professionals, their actual combat effectiveness is not much.

What they are good at is reclaiming wasteland for farming, raising animals, and building houses.

Fighting is not their strong point.

Even if everyone could fight with all their strength, it would probably take considerable casualties to barely destroy these monsters.

Apart from the altar of creation, the valley is now barren and there is not even a decent house. They have to set up a tent to spend the night.

It is absolutely a waste to let the living citizens who can promote the development of the territory die in battle.

Pete was thinking about how to coordinate everyone to fight with all their strength and minimize the losses, when he suddenly realized.

"Eh? Wait, something seems... not right?"

Pete realized a detail in the mission description.

"They will gather near Misty Valley?"

"Oh I see!"

Pete had a bold idea.

Call the other 4 people together.

"Tell me, is there a possibility?"

“In fact, the Lord has given us guidance.”

"Why do we have to wait until 7 days later to stop the monster attack in 7 days?"

"Didn't the oracle say that the monsters would gather nearby first?"

"The mission requirements only ask us to destroy these monsters, but they don't say when we have to destroy them!"

“Why seven days later?”

"These seven days are clearly a reminder to us that we should take the initiative to get rid of them!"

"It's difficult to deal with them all at once, but if we divide and conquer them like we did when we eliminated the Bloodfang Gang, wouldn't it be much easier?" "This will definitely minimize the casualties. If we can eliminate them all before the gray fog dissipates, won't the monster attack end immediately?"

"That must be it!"

The more Pete thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was very reliable!

He must have successfully interpreted the will of the oracle of the god of knowledge again.

……

"It must be you!" Nowen paid attention to Pete's unique thinking and was completely convinced.

This guy has never gotten his reading comprehension questions right, and his imagination even goes in weird directions every time.

The "dissipation" of the gray fog is a reminder that Nowen prepared for believers.

In fact, the gray fog that permeates the periphery of the valley can be regarded as a kind of protection unique to Nowen, which will prevent other people and monsters from entering.

By temporarily removing the gray fog, the mindless monsters nearby will be able to sense the presence of civilization in the valley.

When the evil gods saw Norwin's followers, they ran away faster than anyone else;
These irrational monsters are different from the evil gods that polluted them. They are unaware of the danger and can only spread chaos and destruction, so they dare to rush over to attack.

Norman can use this to manually create a small-scale "Monster Red Tide".

The number of monsters marked in the mission is actually the number of monsters that came after Norman's followers entered the valley, briefly removed the gray fog, and sensed the presence of civilization.

Norman did not intend to use the gray fog to protect believers forever, as that would only make them fall into comfort and lose their fighting spirit.

It won't take long for the believers to discover that as long as there is the protection of the gray fog, neither monsters nor other people can enter.

This place is even more powerful than the protection of [Past Glory].

But there is only so much gray fog near the Misty Valley, and it can only cover this valley.

We can't let the believers stay in the valley forever, can we?
Now he is in the state of "proclaiming the whole district"!
He can't play with the evil gods, those guys are just crazy;

With his identity as a god in the past, no matter whether he was good or evil, he could never get into the circle of righteous gods in this era, and might even be declared war on by the churches of righteous gods!

If you are not careful, the whole world will become your enemy, and you will have to fight both mortals and monsters.

Novin intended to use this method to remind believers that they need to improve their strength and be ready to face danger at any time, and not just wait for death in shelters.

As a result, Pete found a way to debug the bug.

In a sense.

Pete's idea is not wrong.

There are many ways to address the hazard.

Besides staying in the Misty Valley and waiting for the monster attack to come;
Killing all the monsters nearby in advance can really solve the crisis of attack!
Nowen hesitated for a while and then sighed.

"Oh... Never mind! That's fine!"

"As long as they don't plan to hide in the valley forever, my goal will be achieved!"

……

With a plan, Pete and his team are extremely efficient.

The small-scale monster red tide originally designed by Nowen turned into an action in which the believers took the initiative to search for monsters around the Misty Valley and destroy them!

Don’t even mention 7 days!

In just less than 4 days, they found the last level 0 monster near the valley through a carpet search!

He managed to kill all the monsters that Norwen lured here, not a single one was left!
Nowen had no choice but to announce in advance the pioneering mission he was going to use to guide his followers to build their territory:
[Territory construction series tasks have been released! ]

【Complete a series of tasks to unlock the lord election! 】
