The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 1491 - 429: It Must Be the Flame King's Doing! (Part 3)

"You guess."

Taufu rolled his eyes.

"Guess what? Just tell me directly!"

Luo Yan said casually.

"It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that I can't say for sure myself. After all, some legends weren't made up by me, and many were spontaneously created by people."

Like when I was in the Holy City.

Including the time when I experienced being an Adventurer in Dragon Watch City.

"..."

Taufu pondered for a moment, then suddenly spoke.

"So, can this really gather Power of Faith?"

Luo Yan smiled and said.

"I can only say that the effect is very good."

The snowball of faith is getting bigger and bigger, and presumably, after the crisis in Twilight Province is resolved, his Power of Faith will swell to a considerable number.

At the same time when a certain Divine was full of confidence in his plan, a certain pawn pushed onto the chessboard by the Divine was equally confident.

The changes in the besieged camp were seen by "Iron Bull" Brennan.

If the previous claim of a hundred thousand troops was just a boast, now he might actually have a hundred thousand under his command!

Or even more than a hundred thousand!

It's not just about the numbers either!

He also saw a burning morale as fiery as flame in the soldiers' eyes, and even in his own!

The current priority is to strike while the iron is hot!

Steps echoing in the break of dawn, Brennan strode across the bustling camp and headed straight for one of the food stations providing relief to refugees.

He had already devised a complete siege plan, and as long as that Lady Carian nodded, he could immediately mobilize his soldiers to take local materials and crafts cloud ladders and makeshift catapults, completing all the preparations for the siege.

Unlike other food stations, this one had the most people simply because you could see the Holy Lady here and even receive her blessing, even if it's just a word of comfort.

Wading through the crowd waiting for aid, Brennan quickly found Carian.

She was standing by a large cauldron, alongside the soldiers helping and the cook making porridge, distributing warm wheat porridge to the long line of starving people.

Her profile looked exceptionally holy in the morning glow, as if she was born for this moment.

"Lady Carian," Brennan suppressed his inner urgency, making his voice sound as calm as possible, "I have something to discuss with you."

"Mr. Brennan, you're here," Carian put down the ladle in her hand, handed over the work here to a nearby soldier, then looked at the general and said gently, "I have something to discuss with you as well."

"Then you go first."

Out of respect for the Holy Daughter, Brennan displayed rare gentlemanly conduct in front of the refugees, even if such conduct seemed a bit clumsy and absurd for a "wild man" clad in bear hide.

Carian, however, did not laugh at him, but graciously acknowledged his goodwill and thanked him with a smile.

Then, she led Brennan to a nearby tent and also summoned all the key figures in this "Salvation Army," afterwards taking out a map drawn in charcoal from her pocket.

It was a map of the entire Sparrow Wood Territory, a gift from a farmer who used to be an Adventurer as gratitude for saving him and his family.

Seeing the Holy Daughter unfold the map, Brennan initially thought she wanted to discuss the fortifications of Sparrow Wood Castle with him, his expression immediately turning serious.

However, to his surprise, those slender fingers didn't fall on the city walls but on a village far from the castle.

He remembered that place, seemed to be called... Wheat Field Village?

But whatever it's called, that village is already abandoned, now only ghosts and spirits wander in the desolate berms.

"...According to the refugees, this village has the most complete roads within dozens of miles, connecting over fifty villages of various sizes throughout Sparrow Wood Territory. Moreover, its land is fertile, near the Rushing River, and it would be a pity for it to be left in ruins."

Pausing for a moment, Carian continued in a serious tone.

"I believe if we want to restore grain production in Sparrow Wood Territory, the first village we should revive is here. It will be our first stop in reviving Twilight Province."

When she spoke of farming, her demeanor became noticeably more professional than when she played the role of "Sister."

Although she hasn't farmed personally, there are fields right by her home, and she's helped with some farm work.

However, upon hearing her "untimely" remarks, all the soldiers around were dumbfounded.

Reviving...

Twilight Province?

The war isn't even over yet, is it really time to talk about this?

The soldiers exchanged glances, confirming they weren't dreaming and hadn't misheard the command of the "Holy Daughter" herself.

Brennan was equally puzzled, opened his mouth, yet found there were too many questions, he didn't even know where to start.

Carian didn't mind his reaction and continued with a gentle tone.

"We just drove the refugees here from their original villages, leaving them a bad impression, and now if we suddenly tell them to go back, it's hard not to create new panic among them, so I plan to have them return in an orderly, phased manner."

"Uh, I think letting them stay here to bolster numbers isn't bad either," a Chiliarch couldn't help but whisper.

Carian glanced at him, although there was no majesty in her eyes, the person instinctively shut his mouth.
