Don't call me evil god

Chapter 832: The Conspiracy of the Supreme Truth

"interesting……"

Novin, who was following the developments in various places from the perspectives of different believers, gradually sensed something interesting.

"Should we say this is a diversion? Or is it a deliberate push?"

Although the number of believers is limited, as new people are included in his "scope of vision" week by week, the scope of Novan's "surveillance" is also expanding.

This is just like when playing strategy chess games, the more scout troops you send out, the more sources of intelligence you can collect.

A lot of information that ordinary people need to summarize and communicate on their own can be readily obtained by Nowen.

Through Valerie, a girl beside Wallace, Nowen learned that Archbishop Eugene had gone to the border of Kalez Territory with the Five Saints of Glory and was planning a ceremony to reinforce the divine barrier of [Past Glory].

And then through the perspective of Prince Fradin.

The royal capital of Starosh is undoubtedly in a "weak" state with empty defenses due to the temporary departure of the top fighters of the Glowing God Cult and the large-scale deployment of the royal army.

Although King Kenredin and Archmage Alcandas are still in charge, there are obvious gaps in top, middle and basic combat power.

Based on past experience, during the monster red tide, there will always be cultists in the Kingdom of Reyak who try to take advantage of the chaos to cause trouble.

Of course, these crazy guys will basically be quickly suppressed by the Crusaders left behind in the area, leaving them no chance to escalate the situation.

The capital should have been the safest place in the entire kingdom. After all, the Holy Land of Glory was located in the southwest of the capital. The Five Saints of Glory were five rank 6 legendary priests. Under normal circumstances, even during the monster red tide, there would be at least 2 to 3 people left behind.

With them guarding the capital, the cultists cannot cause any trouble.

Things have changed this year.

In order to reinforce the ritual of [Past Glory], all Five Saints of Glory are mobilized.

Noven thought about it carefully.

"Think about it carefully... the people from the Church of the Supreme Truth, the action they carried out in Stone Fortress did have an impact."

Is the dwarven city of Stonefort defended?

Thanks to the fearless resistance of Nowen's followers, the city was not completely destroyed by the Stone Monster. Although the dwarves suffered heavy losses, their basic base is still there, and they can recover after a dozen years of rest.

But for the cultists of the Church of Supreme Truth, their plan was not a complete failure.

The real "complete defeat" should be that the deformed stone spirit fetus died in the womb before it could be awakened, and there was no need for the so-called stone fort defense battle to break out at all.

The mysterious gray dwarf messenger would be considered successful as long as he could awaken the stone spirit fetus.

Because the appearance of a monster whose strength far exceeds that of level 6 is itself a glaring deterrent!
The news reached the Kingdom of Reyak and the Cult of the Light.

They must have had some concerns in their minds.

Since the cultists can create such dangerous monsters in the Distorted Wetlands, it will be even easier for them to do something similar in the Dark Forest!
After all, there are no Crusaders in the Dark Forest. As long as the cultists want to cause trouble, it will be difficult to find where they are.

If a monster of that strength appeared during the monster red tide, with only the existing defensive force, even if we could hold on in the end, we would probably suffer heavy losses.

do not forget.

The awakened stone spirit fetuses in the stone fortress were in a particularly weak state. Their defense capabilities were not very strong at that time, and even a level 1 professional could cause damage to them.

The Stone Spirit Monster in its prime is definitely a nightmare for the regular soldiers of the King's Army on the border defense line.

What's even more dangerous is that no one knows whether the [Past Glory] barrier can block monsters at the level of Stone Spirit Freak!
The losses caused by the loss of the defense line are acceptable. The worst that can happen is that the border territories will suffer again, just like when King Kenreddin ascended the throne decades ago.

If there is a problem with the [Past Glory] barrier, it will be a big problem! If we continue to think along this logic, we will come to a logical conclusion:

"We must have a matching top combat force stationed at the border to ensure the safety of [Past Glory]!"

Therefore, it is most appropriate for the Five Saints of Glory and Archbishop Eugene to head to the border together.

Their plan to try to reinforce "Past Glory" also seems reasonable.

But once they left, the defense of the royal capital was left unattended, which naturally gave the cultists an opportunity to take advantage.

"Hiss... Those guys from the Supreme Truth Church looked crazy at the time. How could they even understand conspiracy?"

Norman smacked his lips, interested.

This is a difficult binary choice question given by the cultists.

The kingdom's garrison force is limited, so it either has to allocate heavy troops to guard the border or stay in the capital.

If you try to have both, you may end up getting nothing in the end.

Judging from the current situation.

The Cult of the Light chose the option to protect the border barrier of [Past Glory].

As for the safety of the royal capital, they chose to trust King Kenredin, the Pope, and the wizards of the Magic Hermitage represented by Archmage Alcandas.

Correspondingly.

A group of cultists hiding in the dark began to stir, constantly conducting sacrificial rituals in the temporary base in the Shelter Plain.

It's obvious that they're going to cause trouble!

……

Nowen sees all the decisions and plans made by all parties.

However, he did not intend to intervene immediately to change the status quo.

On the one hand, his followers were also busy guarding the territories outside the Dark Forest, helping Ceylon to relieve the pressure of the red tide of monsters, and had no chance to rush to the rescue of the royal capital.

On the other hand, there is a kind of feeling that Nowen has in his mind.

Nowen vaguely felt that the red tide of monsters, the cultists' "making trouble" in the Sanctuary Plains, and the Five Saints of Glory going to the border together were not that simple.

Because he still remembered an important detail:

If the Church of the Supreme Truth's plan in Stone Fortress paved the way for their next actions, they tried to use this "choose one of two" model to create something.

The Glowing God Cult chose to face the challenge head-on, fighting against the enemy with its own troops and blocking the water with its own earth.

It is still hard to say who will win or lose in the fight between the two sides.

Because even Noven couldn't be sure what the lunatics of the Church of the Supreme Truth were planning to do in the Sanctuary Plains, and whether the damage they caused could be properly dealt with.

But what about the "third party forces" that have been lurking in this series of events?

The Stone Fort dwarf named Bron Freeman regained consciousness after reading an anonymous letter sent to Stone Fort from Greenport. This allowed him to successfully contact Norwen's believers. The two sides worked together to complete a surprise attack and beheading of the messenger of the Church of the Supreme Truth.

The sender of the "anonymous letter" is obviously the "third party" that has been looming in the incident!
What does the third party intend to do with the monster Red Tide?
