Tower Defense Lord, random Wishing Tower at the start of the game.

In the caravan.

Lin Chuan found some books that recorded the history of the Kingdom of Leiden.

This kingdom dates back a thousand years.

It was founded by a commoner named Taslan.

Taslan comes from the other side of the sea.

War broke out on that continent, and the country was destroyed.

The king led a group of nobles and commoners across the sea to this continent.

Here, after defeating the natives, the Kingdom of Alpha was established.

Later, the natives, allied with the barbarians from the north, marched south and captured the capital.

The Alpha Kingdom was destroyed.

The monster army seized the opportunity to rise, and the orcs attacked from the grasslands.

The old order collapsed, and large numbers of nobles died in battle.

Those who survived were scattered in various places.

Thirty years later.

Taslan married an old nobleman and inherited the title.

The path of conquest began at this point.

They united human nobles from various regions to form an alliance.

They have built a powerful standing army.

Based on the southern territory, a stable rear was secured.

He led his legion northward, clearing out monsters, orcs, and barbarians.

They planted the banner of civilization atop the capital city walls.

The Kingdom of Leiden was formally established.

After numerous campaigns and generations of management, the kingdom was eventually expanded into an empire.

What followed was internal strife within the empire and a change of throne.

But it was still within the Taslan family.

Until the goblin disaster occurred.

The Leiden Empire then began to reintegrate.

Only if the empire remains can it fight against the massive number of goblins.

The Thousand Mountains Defense Line was established under the auspices of the Empire.

But the empire, which had lasted for a thousand years, was already corrupt from within.

The nobility has long been rendered useless.

After the first line of defense was breached, a large number of pro-war figures within the empire were killed in action.

Most of the remaining nobles advocated for peace talks with the goblins.

It was at this time that traitors among the human race began to appear on a large scale.

The current king is not a fool; he wants to change the status quo.

Therefore, many commoners were promoted to pioneer lords and sent to establish territories outside the Thousand Mountains defense line.

The king's aim was to use these new military nobles to counterbalance the power of the old nobles.

They might even wait until the time is right and replace these nobles directly.

The old nobles also discovered this, and naturally they wouldn't sit idly by and wait for their doom.

They colluded with goblins, sold intelligence, and tried every means to strangle these new nobles outside the defense line.

The internal strife between the two sides was extremely fierce.

So even though goblins have been weakened.

However, the Layton Empire was also internally weak.

The two sides remain evenly matched.

In the Leiden Empire, the deity worshipped was the God of Courage.

This deity is a new god that was brought forth through faith by the early inhabitants of the Old World a thousand years ago after they killed the native gods.

The Taslan Empire was established with the help of the god of courage.

But when the Goblin God rose to power...

The god of courage suffered a severe blow.

The divine realm was breached once by the goblin god.

Now, a new war of gods is about to begin.

The god of courage has not yet recovered.

Whether it's the king, the new nobles, or the old nobles, they all understand.

In this battle of the gods, the god of courage will surely perish.

Their only hope was to find the protection of a new god in the war of gods.

The king and the new nobles set their sights on the new god of knights.

Meanwhile, the old nobles secretly contacted the Goblin God.

Both sides wanted to dedicate the god of courage to the new god.

In order to seize this divine position, the goblin army spared no effort in launching a fierce attack on the Kingdom of Leiden.

All for the sake of taking over the temple.

The king and his followers guarded the temple, waiting for the new god to awaken.

......

After Lin Chuan understood the cause and effect,

Some secrets about the gods were gleaned from this.

"Conquering the kingdom of the gods does not necessarily kill the gods completely."

"To completely kill a god, you must destroy the temple and then absorb his divinity."

"Just like the god of courage, even after his kingdom is conquered, he can still rise again as long as his believers continue to provide him with the power of faith."

"But this process is very long, taking thousands of years."

"The Kingdom of Leiden can't wait any longer."

"The new god can increase its power by entering the main temple of the other party and accepting faith on their behalf, thus completely absorbing the other party's divinity."

"Divinity is the rule of faith."

"If mortals want to become gods."

"Then one must first condense the divine body, ignite the divine fire, condense the divine personality, raise the divine throne, and establish the divine kingdom."

No wonder the Lord of Blue Star was in despair.

The war of the gods is about to begin.

The Lord of Blue Star desires to become a god in a mortal body.

That's simply not enough time.

But it's not impossible.

The books I received contained information about the Goblin God's ascension to godhood.

The legend goes that he accidentally obtained a divine spark, and after directly merging with it, he became a god.

This is a very rare occurrence.

Generally speaking, those who attain godhood through divine status are usually aided by other deities.

Alternatively, other deities may directly use their divine status to assist them in becoming gods.

"There are other gods behind the Goblin God."

This is Lin Chuan's guess.

But it's highly likely to be true, otherwise the old nobility would never have so easily submitted to them.

Lin Chuan didn't know which deity it was.

Perhaps it will be revealed when doing the task.

Just as Lin Chuan was pondering these things.

A sound of panic came from outside.

"not good."

"It's a goblin."

"There's an ambush ahead!"

......

"Brother Dao, I'm sure of it, this is the only caravan on this road."

"Based on speculation from the location of the landing."

"If there's a caravan around us, it will only appear in this caravan."

After discovering the caravan, the three Blue Star lords used their experience to determine the location of the opposing faction's lord.

"Okay, let's get started."

"We need to act quickly; this secret realm is extremely dangerous."

"We'll complete our mission and withdraw as soon as possible."

"yes,"

The lord, Daoge, summoned the garrison from the goblin lair.

There are a total of one thousand goblins, including three of the Black Iron type.

The rest were ordinary soldiers.

If Lin Chuan had brought his own legion, he could have wiped them out in no time.

But he was all alone.

Fortunately, he had quite a few rolls of various kinds on his body.

"Form ranks."

The guards were all veterans of the battlefield.

Guards with shields stood on either side of the carriage.

The leader, on the other hand, would don armor and ride a warhorse.

He led ten cavalrymen to patrol and command from the outer edge of the battlefield.

The merchants and their entourage on the carriage took out bows and crossbows and formed a square formation.

"shoot."

The battle began immediately after the goblins appeared.

Goblins wore simple leather armor, while only a few elites wore iron armor.

Behind them were ten goblins riding wild boars.

It shows a goblin boar rider.

In terms of combat strength, the guards are not much different from the goblins.

The number of goblins was leveled off by the guards' equipment.

Without the intervention of the descending lord.

The battle between the two sides will continue for some time before ending with heavy losses on both sides.

And now.

The appearance of the lord is the key to this battle.

"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move."

Lin Chuan hid inside the carriage, observing the surrounding movements.

Although he was a mage and was equipped with gold gear, Lin Chuan still chose to wait for his opponent to show himself before making a move.

The lords who called themselves Brother Dao were also a bunch of old fogies.

They lay prone in the jungle, watching the battle below.

"Brother Dao."

"I don't see the lord."

"Did we guess wrong?"

"A lord asked."

"impossible."

Dao Ge frowned.

His eyes kept scanning the surroundings.

Then he kept a close eye on the carriage.

"Third brother."

"Try that carriage!"
