There are too few powerhouses who reach her level but do not become gods, moving their main bodies to the God Realm in pursuit of eternity.
Therefore, based on her own strength, to speculate on the upper limit of Naline's abilities, the Eternal Night Empress felt that no matter how frightening the title of Time Shepherd was, as long as she dared to come to the empire, she would not be invincible.
In a caster's duel, advance preparation is enough to bridge the gap in strength.
Roger would devise a trap to create a flaw in Naline's mind, giving the Eternal Night Empress a chance to strike;
and the Eternal Night Empress's strength would guarantee firepower advantage. With their cooperation, even the strongest six-winged angel below the gods would have no chance of escape.
Old Jostar saw how determined these two were and couldn't persuade them any further, only sighing softly.
You can do whatever makes you happy, anyway, I'm just a prisoner, what bad intentions could I have...
...
...
Deep in the Kambusak Desert, at the old site of Sleina City, cheerful beastmen were carrying various building materials, repairing their former royal city.
Just three days ago, under the leadership of the beautiful and valiant Princess Tasika, they won a great victory, driving away the evil imperial people who occupied this place.
Of course, this was essentially just a performance.
The empire never intended to rule the barren desert. The mage team of the Rommel Legion left here created enough illusions to satisfy the beastmen tribal coalition's desire to tear the empire apart.
Then they quietly teleported away, essentially returning this desert city to Princess Tasika.
The scene was lively, but in reality, only a few unlucky ones broke their legs because they were too eager to climb the city walls.
But for the empire, this was still a great victory-level raid. Princess Agave led them to seize the gap in the empire's defenses, catching their opponents off guard and creating extremely brilliant results!
The empire's sweeping of the beastmen tribes had originally made the beastmen despair, thinking that hardship was coming and the following winter would be very difficult.
But after Princess Tasika arrived, she united the power of many tribes, gathered the elite coalition forces that had been scattered before, and vowed to bring a good life to the beastmen.
She didn't just talk empty words, she brought order and peace to the desert through her efforts, brought food and goods, and now brought a glorious victory.
Taking back the former royal tent brought her prestige to a new peak.
Although there were rumors of a new beastman king, Tasika never actually claimed the title. Her external identity was always the princess of the Bell Tribe, the commander of the coalition forces.
But everything changed after taking Sleina City.
The beastmen had been defeated by the Green Vine Empire in one blow after hundreds or thousands of years of internal strife.
After being reorganized by Tasika, they recaptured the lost royal city in one fell swoop, allowing these simple and strong people to see the importance of unity.
Of course, a very crucial point was that the most ambitious people had already been sacrificed in Old Jostar's plan.
The prestigious chieftains and executives of the beastmen tribes were all concentrated in Sleina City during the imperial invasion war, and were eventually sent to the Wheel of Death by the Eternal Night Empress, now solid-liquid separated into nutrients nourishing the yellow sand.
The remaining large and small tribes, although there are temporary leaders, either lack ambition and just want to live a stable life, or are ambitious but their abilities and qualifications are not as good as Tasika's.
More importantly, Tasika firmly controls the most elite coalition forces of the beastmen. After a period of training and integration, she reorganized this coalition force on the grounds of improving combat power and imitating the Green Vine strong army.
Clearing away the overt and covert resistance, the current beastmen elite coalition forces have completely broken up the original scattered formations naturally formed by tribes, and instead turned into three legions, each legion with 50,000 people, and each 10,000 people into a division, such a chaotic formation.
In this way, the name of the coalition force is no longer appropriate. They have completely become Tasika's fighting force, able to fight real hard battles for her.
After the three legions were reorganized, they simply and neatly captured Sleina City, and also strongly proved that Tasika's military reforms were effective.
At this point, the beastmen internally recognized Princess Tasika as a kind, brave, beautiful and ambitious leader.
Looking at the current beastmen tribes, there is no more beloved noble than her.
The Bell Tribe was already strong, and now it is also the main force of the most elite First Legion.
With the other royal families dying one after another, or being unpromising, Tasika is the only candidate they can support.
And the beastmen tribes, who have experienced too many hardships, have realized the harm of dispersion.
The powerful neighbor to the east is constantly creating pressure, forcing them to unite in order to resist the invasion of the Green Vine Iron Cavalry.
The old people who were originally watching Tasika's integration of the beastmen tribes also began to think that she actually represents the future of the beastmen.
After occupying Sleina City, the temporary chieftains and priests of those tribes united and entered the palace to request an audience with Princess Tasika.
Their demands were simple, asking the princess to become king and rightfully lead all the beastmen tribes. They were willing to unconditionally pledge allegiance to the new king.
Tasika humbly declined, saying that her virtue did not match the position.
The chieftains and priests who advised her were quite firm, and once again firmly stated that only the princess could save the beastman kingdom.
The two sides held a day of meetings, three requests and three concessions, and finally Tasika agreed to become king.
At the same time, breaking the traditional multi-tribe alliance of the beastmen, they established a kingdom to protect the interests of all beastmen, named Terra.
This is the meaning of "courage" in the ancient beastman language, and it is also the abbreviation of the name of their current main belief, the Goddess of War, which has been supported by all beastmen.
Thus, the tribal disputes that had plagued the Kambusak Desert for thousands of years ended.
The blood feuds that originally existed between the tribes gradually subsided, and under the leadership of Queen Tasika, they began to build new cities centered on Sleina City, looking for oases.
To move from nomadic to a more advanced agricultural civilization.
Supporting the progress of civilization is a huge amount of materials, new technologies, and sufficient force...
A joyful atmosphere permeated Sleina City. They were nervously and busily renovating the city walls, rebuilding the palace, preparing for the Queen's enthronement ceremony, and looking forward to the Terra Beastman Kingdom creating a new era.
In a luxurious camp beside the palace, Tasika seemed to be praying piously, but was actually entering the mage camp, leaving a message for Roger:
"Lord Charles, our plan has taken an important step. The kingdom is about to be established, and plans to change the beastmen's barren and difficult lives will be launched one after another. I am very grateful for your help. In addition, the road ahead is slow, and Terra needs more guidance from you. -- Your loyal little Ta."
After writing the message, she was reluctant to leave here, flipping through the previous chats between the two, a smile of joy often rising on the corner of her mouth.
Although she didn't chat every day, after Duke Nakaniton broke the ice, her daily communication with Roger was successfully restored, and big and small things could be discussed.
This time, the chieftains and priests of the tribes took the initiative to ask her to be the beastman queen, which was also Roger's idea, instructing her to arrange for her subordinates to stir up emotions and promise benefits, which directed this big show...
If there weren't enough benefits, how could those old foxes really be willing to hand over the power in their hands to a little girl like her.
But this way, asking her to become king from the bottom up, the legitimacy is beyond reproach.
She will have enough righteousness to lead the beastmen to complete the kingdom's reforms, and with Lord Charles's guidance from the side, the final result must be good, right?
Tasika did not wait for Lord Charles to log on tonight. Although she was slightly disappointed, she was not completely disappointed.
She believes that there will be plenty of time in the future.
Whether it is the Green Vine Empire or the Terra Kingdom, we all have a bright future.
...
...
Roger didn't return to Charles's mansion until late at night.
The source of information about the Seven Gods is not only the capture of believers. The Eternal Night Empress also sent the Arcane Society to constantly inquire about news in the astral world.
Although it did not touch the core of the Seven Gods, there was still a lot of information for reference.
After coming out of the Heart Demon Realm, Roger talked a lot with the Eternal Night Empress.
In Roger's view, the known information and the current situation are not as bad as the Eternal Night Empress thinks.
The power of the Seven Gods exceeded expectations, the goals of the Seven Gods cannot be guessed, but their harm is to the entire multiverse.
The pressure distributed to the Eternal Night World will not be much more severe than before.
At least the internal environment of the empire is now stable, the national strength is increasing rapidly, and the time bomb of the Heavenly Light Army has been resolved.
If the Seven Gods want to disintegrate the Green Vine Empire without injury and then control the Eternal Night World, it is basically impossible.
It is true that the Eternal Night World cannot resist the power of the Seven Gods' frontal descent, but the Seven Gods cannot devote all their efforts to deal with the Eternal Night World.
Their goal is the multiverse, how much power can be allocated in the end, and how much time it will take to mobilize the power, it is still a question mark.
After some discussion, although there was no clear conclusion, making the empire stronger as a whole, and using national strength to replace personal strength to fight the war between mortals and gods, is still not necessarily the right path, but the path with the highest chance of winning.
Having unified his thoughts, the next step is to promote the work of investigation, development, and preparation for war.
After washing up and lying in bed, Roger saw that it was a new day and opened the system treasure chest.
The different effects from every day attracted his attention:
Guaranteed!
After more than a month, the guaranteed probability increased to 40%+ before a guaranteed box came out, which can no longer be considered European.
Roger looked at the items that came out.
[Source Sea Secret Medicine: Moderately repairs the erosion caused by the Source Sea, usage times 3/3. (Automatically refills each time you return to the material world)]
"Another inexplicable Source Sea series?" Roger complained very depressed.
Obviously the golden "Legendary Recovery" entry was removed, but it cannot be used in the main world, and he doesn't know or understand the Source Sea series.
What exactly is the Source Sea, the Eternal Night World doesn't even have this sea, okay?
The dog system only gives me this kind of useless prop, even the guaranteed one is this broken thing!
After simply reading the description, he threw the prop that looked like a medicine bottle into the bottom of the system warehouse.
Go and eat dust with the Source Sea Ark, Source Sea Lookout, Source Sea Anchor and other garbage!
At this moment, this young man does not yet know that he has grasped the future, and the props lying in the warehouse are props that even the God King would be envious of.
The gears of fate have already turned, but from the results, it seems that they have not turned.
Chapter 142 Little Demon Soothing Guide
A cool breeze and yellowing autumn leaves mark the new day.
The City of Mysteries gradually wakes up from its sleep and regains its vitality. The streets become more and more lively, with pedestrians and vendors coming and going, presenting a prosperity that surpasses the times.
Yesterday's intelligence war with the Heavenly Light Army as the background did not have any impact on this city with a population of over one million.
In order to lure Naline, the Dark Night Guard's great victory was classified as confidential and prohibited from spreading and discussion.
Therefore, there are only rumors and gossip in a very small range, and the public does not yet know about this.
Also in order to lure Naline, the Dark Night Guard suspended the capture of the remaining forces of the Heavenly Light Army in other cities, and instead observed them secretly, waiting for "Sharti" to take Roger to meet them and then carry out the next layout.
In addition, there is one thing that is not easy to hide, that is, the block where the battle took place has very serious traces of being bombed by magic.
Finally, the official notice issued by the city defense army explained that the reason was a series of explosions of alchemical devices.
Here we must thank the Heavenly Light Army for setting up a magic circle that isolates space. After the battle started, no irrelevant people witnessed this personal combat power show belonging to Lord Dio.
The Left Prime Minister's Residence.
In a cherry pink, girlish heart full of bed curtains, Margaret was rolling around on the bed, extremely tangled.
Should I still eat with that bastard Dio today?
The small ceiling fan with two panda-like dark circles under her eyes, not only her eyes were red, but her entire eyes were full of bloodshot.
Because of Dio, she didn't sleep all night!
Yesterday she was affected by the Heavenly Light Army's actions. She was not injured, but the guards around her suffered heavy losses.
However, this action was approved by the Eternal Night Empress, and capturing the leader of the Heavenly Light Army alive is of strategic significance to His Majesty.
So in the end, in her opinion, those guards died gloriously.
This was not a battlefield they actively chose, but sticking to their posts to the last moment can be completely called loyalty to the empire.
This is the duty of a soldier, and also the inescapable fate of a soldier.
She has no reason to blame Dio for this matter, after all, she herself bears a considerable responsibility for the occurrence of this situation.
It was she who was first provoked by Angelina's unstable emotions and pestered Dio, which led to the Heavenly Light Army's temporary change of tactics and a gap in the Dark Night Guard's arrangement.
What made her angry was a key point that she figured out when she left the scene yesterday and returned to work at the military department:
Dio can cooperate with Roger in this matter, it is obvious that the two have secret contact!
In addition, Dio admitted before that he and Angelina are friends, and then calculate his tacit understanding with the Dark Night Guard, so it is easy to deduce a key point:
Dio and Roger, these two are at least friends or more!
Combining her inquiries, Roger also worked as a consultant when Dio was compiling the imperial history, it is very likely that the relationship between these two is closer than friends...
I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it...嘤!
Margaret's life trajectory in the previous seventeen years lacked friendship and affection, and she did not trust anyone other than herself.
