I Am the Minecraft Master, Not the God of Light!

Chapter 38: The Dawn Church Needs a Great Victory!

Years later, Haniya, already a figure of historical significance on the continent, stated during an invited celebrity interview:

"When I first met my Lord, the God-King of Dawn, in the Blackwater City Lord's mansion, He told me that the Dawn had always been present. It was then that I understood."

"God is not in heaven; God is before our eyes."

...

Sitting in the reception room, the tea set on the table was removed and replaced with a crudely hand-drawn map.

"The ones besieging our Winged Clan this time are demons emerging from this small abyss."

Haniya pointed to a spot marked with an 'X' on the map and quickly said:

"Estimates suggest that over ten thousand demons have emerged from this abyss, mostly undead legions and demonized magical beasts."

"Among them, there are also small elite units composed of Mind Flayers, numbering around one thousand."

"The leading demon has not shown itself, but it is definitely a Mind Flayer."

Markov scratched his head, puzzled.

"Why Mind Flayers? Aren't there more undead legions?"

Leial glared at Markov silently. If there weren't outsiders present, he would have smacked Markov's head.

He wanted to ask him if he had learned the 'Complete Compendium of Demon Races' with his butt, dragging it out.

After calming down, Leial explained:

"Although the undead legion is the main force under Lautner, the Gluttony Demon Lord, its vast numbers and ease of creation make it a basic army among demons."

"The Seven Sin Demon Lords all have undead legions to some extent. Only when we see advanced units like undead bone dragons can we confirm that this demon belongs to Lautner, the Gluttony Demon Lord."

"Conversely, if a large number of Mind Flayers appear in this demon army, then it must be a squad from Oreganos, the Pride Demon Lord."

Markov subconsciously wanted to get to the bottom of things, but Haniya preemptively took over the conversation.

Her tone carried a hint of deep-seated hatred.

"It's definitely Mind Flayers! There's no mistake!"

It could be said that the Winged Clan was destroyed by Oreganos, the Pride Demon Lord. If you were to ask who on the entire continent has studied Mind Flayers the most,

It would definitely be the Winged Clan.

This was a blood feud.

Taking a deep breath, Haniya tried to calm her hatred.

"Mind Flayers belong to Oreganos, the Pride Demon Lord, and naturally inherit Oreganos's nature: extreme arrogance."

"Among the many demon armies, only Mind Flayers absolutely forbid other races from serving as officers."

"Their arrogance makes them despise all races except Mind Flayers."

"If there are Mind Flayers in this composite demon army, then their commander must be a powerful Mind Flayer mage."

Ian nodded slightly and said softly:

"Haniya is right. In a Mind Flayer army, only Mind Flayers can be commanders. Otherwise, no matter how powerful a demon is, it won't be able to control the internal strife of the Mind Flayer legion."

This was also something Old Forbes had taught Ian.

Ian's understanding of the major demon races was no weaker than Leial's.

"Tens of thousands of undead legions and demonized magical beasts, plus a thousand Mind Flayer mages and warriors..."

Leial's eyes showed a hint of gravity.

"This is already a very terrifying small demon force. The undead legion is easy to deal with; a few thousand people can handle it. The problem is the demonized magical beasts and Mind Flayers..."

"Normally, it would take at least ten times the force to annihilate them, but if it's just to suppress them back into the abyss, only about twenty thousand people would be needed, but..."

Leial looked at Ian worriedly.

Given the current situation of the Forbes family, even if they asked the royal capital for help, it was uncertain if they would arrive in time. The royal capital might even be hoping that the demons would destroy them.

If they didn't ask for help, then Ian and the twenty of them would have to face it together. The current Church troops in Blackwater City would just be sending food.

Ian naturally knew Leial's worries, but...

This battle had to be fought, and they couldn't ask for help.

The foundation of a religion lies in faith and force.

In a nutshell: civil and martial virtues!

Currently, the Dawn Church already had faith. What remained was to prove the might of the Dawn.

Only by defeating this demon army could the Dawn Church truly take root firmly in the Roderick Continent.

Moreover, the doctrine sounded good, saying that the Dawn would not abandon any child. If they retreated at the sight of demons, what kind of religion would they be spreading?

Fighting was a must, and Ian was aiming to annihilate the entire demon army!

In Ian's heart, he was actually very confident in this war.

It seemed like a fantasy to annihilate tens of thousands of demons with twenty people, but...

Wasn't the essence of the MC world turning the impossible into the possible?

Having developed in the MC world for more than half a month, it was time to test the results.

War is about winning with unconventional tactics.

Is there any army in the world more unconventional than the MC army?

"Your Holiness..."

Leial whispered Ian's name.

Ian raised his head, his face still carrying a confident and gentle smile, which made Haniya feel even more at ease.

"Pack your things; we're preparing to set off!"

"Thank you... Thank you, Your Holiness! The Winged Clan is willing to forever follow the great Dawn!"

Haniya knelt down excitedly. Ian helped her up and said softly:

"Wait a moment; I'll go ask the Dawn to bestow divine power to annihilate the enemy."

After saying that, he glanced at Leial and the others. Everyone understood and followed Ian upstairs.

Silently entering the MC world, Leial immediately said urgently:

"Young Master Ian, the Church troops currently only total one thousand three hundred people, and they've only been trained for a day. They have no ability to fight this war."

"I understand."

Ian went to his wooden house to retrieve a large number of emeralds and gave them to Resia and the others.

"Trade with the weapon merchants and armor merchants and quickly raise them to the master level."

Leial became even more anxious.

"Young Master Ian, what are you planning? Don't tell me we're going to fight the war ourselves?"

"You guessed right!"

Ian looked at Leial with a smile. The latter was dumbfounded. After a long while, the dignified butler image of Leial could no longer be maintained.

"Although the divine power of the Dawn is infinite, a dozen people against tens of thousands of demons... That's ridiculous! That's ridiculous!"

The most up-to-date novels are published here!

"Young Master Ian, what are you thinking!"

Ian shook his head and said softly:

"Don't worry; I won't harm you. I'll also participate in the war."

"Nonsense! This is simply nonsense!"

Leial stood in front of Ian, his neck stiff and his face flushed.

"How can you participate in the war, Young Master Ian? If something happens to you, how will I face the old master? How will the Forbes family continue?"

"Yes, Young Master Ian, at worst, a few of us will go and carry out a decapitation strike. You must not participate in the war."

Markov also looked at Ian worriedly.

The latter sighed softly.

"This battle must be fought. It's being fought for the believers, for the people of the world to see."

"We must let the believers know that the divine power of the Dawn is endless. It can allow them to live a good life and also demonstrate the power to purge demons with thunder, easily leveling the demon race."

"The Dawn Church now needs a victory!"

"If we don't fight and retreat directly, all the previous efforts of the Dawn Church will be greatly discounted."

Leial was somewhat dazed.

Ian comforted:

"Don't worry, I never do anything I'm not sure of. With the support of the MC world, we can't lose. Just listen to my command then."

"I'll lead you to create a great miracle that no one will dare to believe if you tell them."

Leial didn't speak. After a long while, he looked at Resia and the others again.

"Resia, Freya, aren't you going to persuade Young Master Ian!"

"No need."

Resia raised her head with a smile, her face firm.

"I believe Young Master Ian. If he says it's possible, then it must be possible."

"You're also joining in the nonsense!"

"This isn't nonsense! Butler Leial, think carefully. How many impossibilities has Young Master Ian accomplished during this period?"

Resia said plausibly:

"The great Dawn Heaven has appeared, endless water sources, crops that mature instantly, a constant stream of minerals..."

"So many impossibilities have been realized. Why is it impossible for a dozen people to annihilate the demon race?"

"In your heart, is that group of lowly demons stronger than the great Dawn?"

After saying that, Resia quickly walked to Ian's side.

"Young Master Ian, they're already at the master level."

"Very good."

Ian walked to the side of the weapon merchant and armor merchant with a smile, making the final preparations.

To borrow a saying from my hometown.

The path to salvation lies within.

Plus all the resources accumulated over so many days, to strike unexpectedly...

Ian will make the demons understand from the bottom of their hearts the meaning of the phrase 'The sea of bitterness is boundless; turn back and the shore is at hand'.
