Chapter 639 Stealing faith? !
There is indeed the Red Valley Reclamation Area to the south of the rocky land, but it has not yet fallen under Gavin’s control. Even if it does, it is not the best choice, because it belongs to the Kingdom of Cormyr, even if it does. It was conferred to him, and he also needed to pay taxes to the kingdom. The goblin frontier was his own pioneer, but he had no obligation to pay taxes to the Kingdom of Cormyr.
The third strategic goal is the Dragon Coast. This place is not close to the Dragon Coast, but not far away. With the subsequent reconstruction of the road, it will be possible to reach Boscu City within two days. .
At that time, it will not be Bosku blocking their way south, but it will be sandwiched between the Bridge of Humans and Gods and Ivanso City. As long as the ruler of Bosku City is not stupid, slowly They will turn their backs on other cities on the Dragon Coast and join Gavin's ranks. After all, the coalition forces on the Dragon Coast cannot be permanently stationed in Boscu City.
The entire road of conquerors will be completely connected. Gavin's influence will continue to spread to the surrounding areas through this road, and his influence and control will even be above a country. This will The potential of the road is exploited to the extreme.
At this moment, the faith of Ms. Strategist has reached an extreme in the army of conquerors, and Gavin, who is both a voter and the supreme commander, has naturally reached the highest level of reputation that a mortal can achieve. At least he followed him all the way from Darao. The immigrants from Tethyr who Ma came over had a degree of faith. The immigrants from the Dragon Coast were a little less so, but they also had a degree of respect. This magical effect that did not require the path of destiny at all, Gavin directly used his own Created by hands.
What is the concept of degree of faith?
His orders will be carried out unconditionally and without thinking. Even if Gavin asks them to jump off the Bridge of Humans and Gods, they will not hesitate at all, because they firmly believe that Gavin Wen must have his own reasons for doing this, even if it means death.
If Gavin were a god, they would be his first fanatic followers.
Now Gavin just asked them to pray to Ms. Strategy, who had not left completely. There was no possibility of any hesitation. Under the leadership of the dedicated priests of Ms. Strategy, everyone began to recite the three major principles of Ms. Strategy’s ascension to the gods. Core Teachings.
The first pass was a little uneven, but by the second and third pass, 30,000 to 40,000 voices converged into one sound that shook the world.
A force that looked like substance gathered directly above the Bridge of Humans and Gods. However, it did not go to Ms. Strategy. Instead, it was attracted by Gavin and the strategic plunderers in his hands, and gathered in his The surroundings, and then with the help of the electorate's ability, were continuously injected into the land designated by Gavin.
What is a voter? What is voter ability?
It is the human spokesperson chosen by the gods to gather believers and exercise some human rights on their behalf.
The electorate ability is a weakened version of the divine ability. It is of course not rootless duckweed, but is supplied by the divine power of the gods. Therefore, even if the gods have the ability to create a large number of electors, they will not Do this because it will take up a lot of their divine power.
The divine power of the gods comes from the faith of those believers. In the final analysis, the power of the elect is actually provided by faith.
Gavin's current situation is that he directly skips the goddess of strategy and absorbs faith from the essence. Typically, there is no middleman and no price difference.
It sounds very beautiful, but it is extremely difficult to do it.
Unless those who pray regard you as a god and serve you on par with that god, and you still have the ability to store faith.
Gavin satisfies these two points. He himself does not have the ability to store faith, but War Predator does. It contains not only the spark of divinity, but also the plan Ms. Strategy just injected to plunder divinity and souls. Being able to absorb it, let alone believe in it.
Faced with this situation, Ms. Strategy and her Kingdom, who were about to disappear, were obviously stunned, and their eyes almost popped out.
Gavin has no middlemen and no price difference here, so where can she put this godly figure?
For the gods, this is one of the most serious crimes - stealing faith.
Faced with this situation, the first thing the gods did was to impose divine punishment, first chop this girl in pieces.
It’s just done secretly behind the scenes, this is called stealing faith, but if it is done in front of the Lord, is it still called stealing?
Moreover, I am too unique as a voter. I have visited all of Faerûn several times, but I am afraid that no one has negotiated deals with my voters except myself.
The problem is that I am far more dependent on this elector than this elector is on me. Ms. Strategy, who is proficient in strategy, knows very well that she won the divine battle with the predator Garagos. , relying not only on one's own strength, but also closely related to the perfect war preparations of the conqueror's army.
If the Conqueror Army, led by Gavin, had not stood firm on its own side and reversed the situation, the Predator Garagos had gained the support of the Conqueror Army and led the monster army himself. No matter how proficient in strategy, planning, or tactics he is, he can only end up in failure. Instead, the plunderers will take the opportunity to seize part of the strategy and planning priesthood.
God and the priesthood they possess are just more professional and deeper representatives in this regard. Not believing in her does not mean that there is no plan, no strategy, and no tactics at all. It is nothing more than a matter of compatibility.
As long as the number of mortals is large enough and gathered in large enough numbers, they can in turn affect the gods and his clergy. She can seize part of the plunder and destruction, and spawn plans to plunder and destroy the clergy. The plunderers can also counterattack Come and seize some of the plans and strategies. Everything is relative.
The most important thing is that as one of the keys to stealing his own faith, War Reaver took the initiative to help transform it and gave it to Gavin in public. It seemed that he had unknowingly acquiesced in this matter.
Rao is the guardian of plans and strategies, and the Red Knight's brain is somewhat down, and he is quickly calculating the pros and cons of this matter.
This matter should not happen to all of his followers. It is currently limited to the army of conquerors, and will also be limited to Gavin’s territory in the future. After all, this requires the highest trust in him for this to happen. situation.
And it has a limited scope and must be within the envelope radius of the War Raiders. After all, Gavin himself does not have the ability to store and absorb faith. The main thing is the divine spark in the War Raiders and the plan he injected. Divinity is at work.
This is the price you have to pay if you want to quickly gather your soul through Gavin. Where is the best of both worlds in this world?
While you are robbing others, you will become the target of others' robbing if you are not careful.
After many calculations, the advantages of this matter outweigh the disadvantages. It seems that I can only hold my nose and endure it.
It seems that my new chosen one is a double-edged sword. If I use it well, it can put me on the fast track to continue to ascend to God. If I use it poorly, I might be replaced by myself. You must devote more energy to keeping an eye on him.
After leaving a warning to Gavin to "use this trick with caution", Ms. Strategy completely disappeared without a trace, which was regarded as acquiescence to Gavin's direct stealing of part of his beliefs. What I promoted this time was not a chosen one, but a godly one. Anyway, the other party’s contribution to me was worthy of this.
Thinking about this, my heart suddenly became much smoother.
This may not be a kind of temptation for Gavin. With these words, use this trick with caution, he has completely figured out the bottom line of Ms. Strategy's tolerance for him, and he can be free to do some things in the future, because in addition to betraying her, There is no greater crime than declaring war on her and trying to seize her divine title.
The magic field created by the ability of good weather is to use the power of faith to bless and strengthen this land to form a land of faith, which is essentially the same as the Bridge of Humans and Gods.
It’s just that the faith of a single person is too weak, and they are not qualified to use the power of faith. They must use the gods to gather the faith of countless people together in order to produce various magical effects.
Created by good weather, it is more appropriate to call it a place of faith and a manor of faith than a magic field or a magic manor.
With the continuous infusion of the power of faith, it is difficult to directly see the changes in the land Gavin selected from the outside, but even ordinary people who are not sensitive to magic can still see the changes. They can clearly feel that the land has become different, especially the army of conquerors. They can clearly feel the close connection between themselves and the land, just like the bridge between humans and gods under their feet. Seeing them They feel familiar, just like their homeland after a long absence, and they have no doubt that this land will provide them with protection and sustenance. The addition of a large amount of faith only accelerated the process of this matter, but did not provide additional bonuses for this ability and open up more magical lands. After all, this was just the power I borrowed from Ms. Strategy, and I was not yet a true god. slander.
After the transformation of the magic land was completed, Gavin loudly said again: "Now I declare that this bridge is named the Bridge of Faith, the Bridge of Faith in Sandakol, and this city is the City of Faith. This manor is Faith Manor, the City of Faith and Faith Manor of the Red Knight. We will take another half-month break. We will use half a month to open up Faith Manor and replant winter wheat, and build Let’s set up the basic outline of the city of faith and continue to create our own miracles with our hands. Everyone will rest on the spot and start building the city tomorrow.”
“The Bridge of Faith! The Bridge of Faith! !"
"City of Faith! City of Faith!"
"Manor of Faith! Manor of Faith!"
The fervent shouts resounded through the sky again, and Gavin suddenly realized that he had the talent of being chosen by God, and he could easily arouse their emotions.
After doing this, Gavin didn't stop for a moment and went straight to the sky directly above the east entrance of the Bridge of Faith. There were also several outsiders who had witnessed the entire battle from beginning to end. They seemed to have no idea at all. Involved in this war, but inseparable from them.
If the Crown Princess of the Kingdom of Cormyrna, Tenarasta, had not assisted in holding back the Chairman of the Dark Castle, Mamon, although the Conqueror’s army had prepared other back-ups (Catherine had been secretly at that time and did not take action, In order to prevent unexpected situations), but this sentiment cannot be denied, especially when you will have to deal with them for a long time in the future.
The most important thing for a person is to be self-aware.
The army of conquerors is indeed very powerful now. It has shaken the situation in many places along the way, including the Dragon Coast, which has dozens of small and medium-sized cities and five or six large cities. They have all been stirred up from above. There will be no peace down there.
But that all took advantage of their internal weakness and lack of unity. The Kingdom of Cormyr was different.
They have been a country for thousands of years. Although there have been several twists and turns in the process, the country has never been truly shaken. The current king Assan IV is also called the Lord of the Renaissance. The Kingdom of Cormyr has In the thirty years under his control, although there was no large-scale expansion of territory, internal governance could be said to be unprecedentedly fair and open-minded.
He vigorously rectified corruption and the increasingly serious problem of noble land annexation, reaffirmed the foundation of the Kingdom of Cormyr, made the Purple Dragon Legion and battle mages more systematic and standardized, and vigorously activated those bankrupt nobles, The small and medium-sized knight families injected more vitality into the Kingdom of Cormyr, and firmly controlled the entire kingdom from top to bottom around him and the Obaisqil royal family.
In terms of diplomacy, he is strong yet soft. Most of Faerûn knows that the current old dragon in the Kingdom of Cormyr prefers softness to toughness. If you fight him hard, you will finally find that his The teeth are stronger, the claws are sharper, and the body is larger.
The only criticism is that Assan IV likes to use all kinds of spies. From nobles, war mages, to merchants and lackeys, there seem to be royal spies who are directly loyal to him. He seemed to know everything he should know and what he shouldn't know, which made the nobles of the Kingdom of Cormyr cautious in their words and deeds, fearing that if they accidentally said the wrong thing, it would reach the ears of Assan IV.
Although Assan IV is very generous and never cares about harmless jokes and rumors about his romantic affairs, his identity is there. When he laughs and discusses with you, you were discussing his gossip behind his back yesterday. Anyone else would tremble.
If placed in the valley, the size of the conqueror's army would already be comparable to the number of people in most valleys.
But in Tethyr, the population is only half of the city. The same is true in the Kingdom of Cormyr. They only have three metropolises with a population of more than one hundred thousand, and there are countless towns, large and small. .
Their Purple Dragon Legion alone is known as one hundred thousand, not to mention various local garrison, navy and so on.
Even if this is an imaginary number they boast about, but if they calculate the national border they need to defend, there is definitely fifty thousand. In order to monitor the actions of the conqueror's army, they casually deployed an army for Three thousand Purple Dragon Legions came out, which shows their war potential.
Next, Gavin wanted to force the Kingdom of Cormyr to grant him the Baron of Rockland, but Chen Bing did not force him with force at their doorstep. Even if the size of the conqueror's army doubled, Gavin would not have the confidence to defeat Cormyr. The gate of the kingdom cuts across the country.
Creating the momentum that he can lead the army of conquerors to completely clean up the rocky land, and bringing huge benefits to the Kingdom of Cormyr from top to bottom, will induce them to make this decision. That is the wisest choice.
When Gavin flew in front of the Crown Princess and the others, Ma Meng, the chairman of the Dark Castle, had already disappeared. The second before Ms. Strategy came to ascend to the gods, he had already run away. Not only because The cunning old fox knew that their attempt to disrupt the situation this time had completely failed, and he was afraid that Ms. Strategy would turn into a knife and kill him here.
“Thank you to your two highnesses for your help. This kindness is engraved in our hearts from top to bottom. A small gift is not disrespectful, so please accept it with pleasure.” Gavin stretched out his hand and slapped him three times. The gift box, which was large but extremely delicate, flew directly to the hands of the three people in the Kingdom of Cormyr, as if it had wings.
Although it is only the Crown Princess who takes action, the other two will play a decisive role in the history of the Kingdom of Cormyr in the future. Gavin will naturally not ignore them. Taking the opportunity to build a good relationship will definitely be a profitable deal.
"General, you are too polite. We are just doing something with a little effort, and with the general's calculations, even if I don't take action to contain the dark archmage, I believe you have prepared corresponding backup plans." Crown Princess's eyes flickered, inside There is unconcealable complexity, and in addition to indescribable emotions, there is also heartfelt appreciation.
Her eyes were opened today. It turns out that the battle can still be fought like this. They have taken their plans, strategies and tactics to an extreme.
Look at how many strategies and tactics they used in this battle?
The first move is called Gubu Suspicion Formation, which uses the inertial thinking of road paving to lure the Lizard Queen and her army of lizardmen to the direction of the distant sea swamp, changing the number of enemies she needs to face at the same time from three to Became two.
The second move is called surprise. It uses an unprecedented way of people to respond to gods, and it takes just a few minutes to build an unprecedented bridge of faith. When you see this move, let alone those monster forces They were shocked, and the shock in their hearts was no less than theirs. If this trick was used on them, they would not be prepared, because they never thought from the beginning to the end that God could also be used by them and become their chessboard. a chess piece.
The third move shows the enemy's weakness and lures the Lizard Queen onto the Bridge of Faith.
The fourth decapitation tactic uses the characteristics of the Lizard King's Court to surrender the Lizard Queen, allowing her power to be used for his own use, changing the entire war situation.
The first four moves are still in the mundane category to some extent, but the nature of the latter ones has completely changed.
The fifth strategy of ascension to the gods is that they made full use of the fact that the Strategy Lady became a god and turned it into a part of their war, because they knew that the enemies of the Strategy Goddess would take advantage of her ascension. The God's Sky pops up. No matter which evil god takes action, the monster forces on the other side of the Conqueror's Army are the only ones they can use. They must start this divine war at a disadvantage. The Predator Garagos just falls. Entering the target of this huge chessboard, failure is doomed.
The sixth move is defensive counterattack.
The seventh move is the pocket formation technique.
The eighth move is to roll the bead curtain backwards.
The ninth move, God uses human power, the decisive move of Ms. Strategist did not come out of thin air, but the power of victory gathered with the help of the conqueror's army's comprehensive counterattack against the monster army. In front of this move, the Predator Garagos became the main formation that was attacked crazily by the defeated army. He was directly restrained, and then he was killed in one fell swoop with the help of the thunder charge ability of a unique tree man. This is not a loan from God. What is the potential?
