Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 506: The Spread of War
The Battle of Silver City was lost in just one day. The commander of the Enwei Demon Kingdom army was killed, and there were about 12,000 casualties. All the remaining troops quickly retreated to the south.

They did not dare to stop and did not even take enough supplies with them, because they needed to run as far as possible before Princess Viola's army caught up with them.

After all, even with the advantage of the city walls, the battle ended up like this. If they were intercepted on flat ground, the casualties would not be just 12,000.

This escape also meant the end of Viola's planned pincer attack. The Enwei Demon Kingdom army that failed to evacuate in the central part was cut off from supplies and was surrounded.

And this is not over yet.

Since the Enwei Demon Kingdom does not border the Avarus Demon Kingdom, the Enwei Demon Kingdom army originally planned to transport supplies directly to the eastern coast of Avarus via Lakshuriya and transport ships.

The sudden defeat meant that they did not have enough transport ships to bring everyone home, so they could only leave the wounded at the port and wait for the transport ships to arrive. The main force still had to pass through Lakshuriya to return.

But Lakshuriya was the first to defect among the four-nation coalition, and now it has taken advantage of the unpreparedness of its arch-enemy, the Tandron Demon Kingdom, to launch a surprise attack and is currently fighting with them. It is really uncertain whether Lakshuriya will allow the Enwei Demon Kingdom army to pass.

The top brass of the Enwei Demon Kingdom were the first to learn of the army’s defeat, but now was not the time to inquire about the reasons or hold anyone accountable.

Since the army's retreat in the central part of the Avarus Demon Kingdom has been cut off, they can only bring back all the troops that can be brought back first, otherwise the Enwei Demon Kingdom will be left defenseless.

So after learning that the transport ship's capacity was seriously insufficient, the top leaders of the Enwei Demon Kingdom communicated with Lakshuriya as quickly as possible, hoping that they would allow us to pass through the country because they had no past grudges or current enmity.

No one except the two countries knew the details of the negotiations, but the result was that Lakshurya did agree to let the country pass through, but added some minor conditions.

For example, you can pass, but you have to leave your weapons and armor behind. We will send people to protect your army along the way and even give you some food to survive.

This is not borrowing the road at all, it's just what it means to transport prisoners. But when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. If you delay any longer, Viola will catch up with you, and then no one will be able to go back.

Of the original four-nation alliance, one was beaten into autism, one defected, one was busy dealing with attacks from both sides, and another was half-crippled.

When the Avarus Demon Kingdom was conquered a year ago, the four nations did consider turning against each other to take over the big cake, but they all had checks and balances on each other, and no one took the initiative. It was even more impossible to imagine that they would be driven out in just one year, and even their own status began to be precarious.

The war started by the Demon Kingdom of Avarus has a clear tendency to spread to other countries. It seems that there are wars everywhere and things are becoming turbulent.

On Viola's side, there were only about 3,000 casualties, and the main force was almost intact. The most important Silver City was also slightly damaged in this war, and successfully completed the pincer attack, encircling the remaining Enwei Demon Kingdom army. They only had two choices: either surrender and do hard labor, or disband and become bandits, as a large army would be too conspicuous.

However, after taking over the Silver City, Viola did not immediately send out troops to encircle and suppress the enemy again. It was not because she did not want to, but because she really could not spare the time.

The surrendered nobles in the City of Silver needed to be purged, a complete government operating mechanism had to be re-established, and military supplies had to be prepared for use in the war, so after entering the city the soldiers could have a good celebratory banquet, and Viola immediately plunged into the daunting administrative work.

At this point, Viola had essentially completed the restoration of her country, but she still lacked the title of queen, and that was just an empty title, so she was ranked last in the priority list.

So far, Viola's affairs have basically come to an end. Judging from Viola's appearance, she will not easily send troops for a long time. She has to take advantage of the current weakness and chaos of the other four countries to rebuild the Demon Kingdom of Avarus that has been destroyed for a year.

She is fine, but Li Chengxi is in trouble.

He found that his faith was not enough.

So far, I have obtained three Demon King Rings, and the upper limit of my Faith Value has reached 400,000. Compared with the Faith Value of a few hundred at the beginning, it is indeed a huge change. But before the battle, the Faith Value was almost full, and after the battle, it was only in the three digits.

A war that requires Li Chengxi's high-intensity intervention, a mere 400,000 faith points are simply not enough. Moreover, as Viola restores her country, the larger the territory, the faster the faith value will increase. In addition, the number of believers will definitely increase significantly after Viola sets the Demon King Cult as the state religion. The upper limit of only 400,000 is simply not enough.

In other words, the water is released too quickly and the capacity of the reservoir is insufficient.

In addition, the operation is too complicated.

This tediousness does not refer to Li Chengxi's intervention, but to the fact that responding to believers' prayers and granting them divine powers is too troublesome.

Even now, if Li Chengxi wants to see what the believers are praying for, he has to click on the dialog boxes one by one. To bestow divine powers on believers, he still has to right-click and add them to the skill bar.

In the past, when there were few believers and faith values ​​were over 70, not many people could become priests. Li Chengxi was also mainly focused on the content of the prayers of Viola and her guards, so it was not very obvious.

But when Viola fought her way to the Kaimen City, the number of the Demon King's followers increased explosively, and it was simply not enough.

There were tens of thousands of believers, and it was really hard to keep up with their prayers. Even if only one in ten of them could become priests, Li Chengxi would have to add magic to them one by one until his hands cramped. Moreover, granting magic was not just one, but usually several, and Li Chengxi had to choose the most useful ones.

Too much trouble.

The true God actually does not have this kind of problem, or the problem is relatively mild.

As for prayer, the true God will hear the prayers of all believers at the same time, so unless they are believers who are given special attention, ordinary believers will be instantly drowned out by the large number of voices whether they are praying or asking for help.

As for divine powers, as long as the gods are willing to open up authority to qualified people, there is no need to click around like Li Chengxi. Once gods grant divine powers, it means a whole set of authority.

The difference occurs mainly because Li Chengxi, as the Demon King God, currently does not have complete priesthood duties and does not have a divine domain. Such matters are usually handled in the divine domain.

The divine domain is the home, office and fortress of a true god, and is also the place where the souls of believers go after death.

According to Pharasma, after death, a person will first enter the long river of souls and drift to the holy land of the god of death. The god of death will then make a judgment and decide where the person will go.

Generally speaking, as long as the circumstances are special, in most cases a soul with faith will be sent to the divine realm of the god he believes in and become a petitioner, which is equivalent to being reborn in the divine realm.

Occasionally, when the gods need manpower to work in the mortal world, they will send petitioners down to serve as messengers to help the gods accomplish certain goals.

So Li Chengxi is currently a true God, but a lame true God with incomplete functions.

Even though Viola has restored her country now, she just caught a good opportunity. Don't forget that there is still an unknown organization operating in secret. Viola has to face much more dangers than before.

So Li Chengxi was thinking, is it time to get the Demon King's Ring...
