Don't call me evil god

Chapter 882 Ebbing Tide

The blood-red color that filled the sky began to gradually dissipate.

Everyone who witnessed this moment knew that this represented the end of the monster red tide.

For the next year, there will no longer be endless monsters rushing out of the dark forest.

Those who survived the war could quickly return home with a fairly generous allowance.

But people on the battlefield cannot let down their guard immediately.

Ultis, hovering in the air, is still alive.

It seemed to have entered some kind of dormant state and no longer expanded its coverage area.

As for those greedy spirits.

When the ritual was successful, they no longer attempted to attack the dragon that presided over the ritual, and entered a similar dormant state.

"Is the knot... over?"

Brandon stammered and turned to confirm the situation with Pete and the others.

Pete carefully looked at Ultis floating in the sky.

I don’t know when.

The other party's blood-red name turned yellow.

Yellow represents "neutral".

To put it more accurately, it should be said that targets with yellow names will not actively attack them, but if the target is attacked, it will immediately fight back.

Pete understood immediately.

"Praise you! Great Norman!"

"ended."

“No matter what happens in the future, at least for now, as long as we retreat to the protection range of the [Past Glory] barrier, we will be safe!”

The monsters, including Ultis, returned to their usual confused and wandering state, and no longer attacked the Kingdom of Reyak like crazy!

……

In previous years.

When the monster red tide ended, the surviving soldiers on the border defense line must have cheered and celebrated.

Because they no longer have to worry about attacks and invasions from monsters.

But this time, no excitement could be heard on the battlefield.

in contrast.

The soldiers had to devote all their efforts to the battle and had no time to think about the causes and effects of a series of catastrophic events.

At this moment, the fighting stopped and they began to look at each other in confusion as they had not yet figured out the situation.

The monster red tide lasted only a few days, and the continuous changes and twists and turns of things completely confused most people.

First, Harris Eugene led the Five Saints of Radiance to the border. In order to resist the monsters, he commanded the soldiers of the King's Army to protect them together and held a grand divine ceremony.

Then, during the ritual, the [Past Glory] barrier dissipated and the monster went completely crazy;

The Seeking Knowledge believers, who had no idea how they arrived, descended from the sky and, without even an explanation, began to confront the Crusaders head-on and stop the ritual;
The appearance of King Kenredin and Archmage Alcandas shocked the soldiers and professionals of the King's Army at the scene;

Harris Eugene's "self-exposure" when he was at the end of his rope, the arrival of super-class monsters, and the arrival of the dragon army.

Pile pile pieces.

without any exaggeration.

Any one of these things, taken alone, would be enough to brag about in the pub for years.

Experiencing so many major events in such a short period of time is enough to completely mess up most people's minds.

What makes people even more worried is that the [Past Glory] barrier has been restored to its original function.

Its location is obviously no longer able to protect the Earldom of Kalezi.

What should I do after I get Kalezi?
What should the people living in Kalezi Territory do?
Not to mention the confused soldiers of the King's Army.

Even the members of the Church of Knowledge.

These people went to the battlefield.

There were many things they hadn't quite figured out, like what exactly was Harris Eugene going to do?
When did he collude with the Church of the Supreme Truth, and what kind of cooperation did he reach with the other party? Also, the name "Annabelle" he called out when he was desperate, and the response that came from nowhere.

The new year's monster red tide is over.

But more and more mysteries arise surrounding the war.

At this time.

People need a backbone to lead them forward.

"Warriors and heroes of the kingdom!"

King Kenredin's powerful voice resounded everywhere at this moment:
"The demon red tide is over, but our mission is not over yet!"

"Harris Eugene is a shameful, pathetic and pitiful traitor. His greed and ambition brought him to his doom. The consequences of the disaster caused by the Church of Radiance need to be settled, but... it should not be done now!"

"The people of Kalezi Territory need our help even more now!"

"All knights, listen up!"

“Lead the battle formation to the nearby villages and cities, rescue the people trapped by monsters, and bring them back to the protection of [Past Glory]!”

Have clear goals.

The soldiers of the King's Army finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now they know:

"The Archbishop of Radiance is a traitor!"

"It's all his fault!"

According to their cognition, they do not need to understand the cause and effect of a series of events, nor do they understand the impact and harm caused by the disaster.

They believed what the king said, and that was enough.

……

It is different for the seekers of knowledge who have experienced various major events one after another.

Looking at King Kenreddin's calm and composed appearance, Pete narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

"how?"

Noticing the change in his companion's expression, Gale asked in confusion.

He was very familiar with Pete and knew that his squinting eyes meant he was doubting something.

"Not quite right."

Pete whispered softly.

"Based on what we saw in the capital, His Majesty the King."

"Whatever he plans, he will make sure it is foolproof. Especially when someone wants to harm the kingdom, he will either not take action or kill them at once, eradicating the root of the problem and leaving no hidden dangers."

“Think of Rune Monger at that time.”

"Unbeknownst to us, His Majesty the King had prepared for the consequences of revealing the truth about the Gilded Club."

“The mountain of gold.”

"This is why Rune Monger's plan was exposed without causing a big uproar in the capital. It can even be used to control those lazy nobles in the capital."

“Achieve multiple things with one stone.”

"This matter concerns Archbishop Harris Eugene. His Majesty the King must have known something in advance! Otherwise, why would he come here so promptly?"

The seekers of knowledge have the guidance of Novan, so they can skip most of the analysis and reasoning and get to the results directly.

Just tell them where and who to chop.

The guidance of Noven, the god of knowledge, will not be wrong.

But King Kenreddin... obviously has no guidance from any god!

"Why do I feel that His Majesty the King may have known about Harris's plan for a long time, but he deliberately indulged him and acquiesced to all this happening?"

Gail was shocked by Pete's analysis.

"you sure?!"
