Chapter 77 The influence of sacrifice and the warning of going south
The Kingdom of Ilia
The famine power was blocked outside the light curtain and could not move closer to the east. Instead, it continued to spread westward.
A large amount of land was infected by the famine power, trees withered, and rivers dried up.
The closer to the Monni Province, the greater the impact, gradually decreasing to the west.
Under the gold, it was impossible to feel and see the spread of the famine power. Except for feeling a gust of wind blowing and the surroundings becoming more desolate, there was no feeling of any abnormal situation.
In the cold area of the Praying Star Lake, Anastasia woke up from meditation, came to the highest point of the ice castle, and looked at the black fog that continued to spread in the distance.
"The evil power has weakened a lot."
"This should be the evil god sacrifice that Weilin mentioned last time, and it really happened."
"However, it is very far from here. It should be possible to protect the entire Praying Star Lake with all your strength."
Then, Anastasia came to the bottom of the ice castle and used the magic power of the elemental pool to resist this tiny storm of evil god power.
The extremely thin famine power touched the barrier that Anastasia had tried her best to deploy, and they collided with each other and turned into nothingness, saving thousands of square kilometers of land in the Praying Star Lake.
On the provincial border, the effect of the famine sacrifice gradually emerged in comparison.
At dawn, in the province of Monni, the legendary knight looked at the empty city of Falkreath. In just one night, 200,000 people were sacrificed inexplicably.
The legendary priest Saint Albert Tasman fell to the ground and silently recited a eulogy.
A legendary wizard activated the time-travel spell, and scenes of the past ten years in the province of Monni kept appearing in his mind to obtain information.
"Bernier, what's the situation?"
Faced with the legendary knight's question, the legendary wizard Bernier opened his eyes and replied: "This plan has lasted for more than ten years. Who is the mastermind? With the protection of the evil god, it is impossible to obtain, but the strongholds of the Famine Cult in other cities can be found."
"It's not difficult to guess." Legendary priest Saint Albert Tasman finished his prayer and turned to the others and said, "It has been lurking for more than ten years without being exposed until a conflict occurred on the border, and the army and main combat forces were transferred away."
"This group of damn bastards, it seems that before launching a war against the Ironforge Dwarf Mountain Kingdom, we have to launch a military operation in advance to reduce their strength and number."
"No hurry, the war against the Ironforge Dwarf Mountain Kingdom will last at least ten years. We have plenty of time to prepare and train soldiers by the way. Too many troops have not participated in wars for a long time."
"Bernier's proposal is very good, but this group of ignorant things dare to attack the western defense line, so don't go back." A legendary warrior gritted his teeth and said, then went to the border.
Before the legendary warrior flew away, he was pulled back by Yarbo, who scolded him with a stern face: "If you rush to the battlefield, it will trigger a series of events."
"Archbishop, I..."
"Doniel, follow the orders of the archbishop. We cannot move until the other legendary warrior leaves the battlefield. This matter should be handed over to the army. Our role is to deter. In addition..., you should also know"
"Hmph, I understand." Legendary wizard Bernier's words make sense, and he can only obey.
...
At the border of Kadlo Province, after a period of training, Weilin has firmly grasped the six thousand people in his hands.
On the march to Lumen South Mountain, 100 kilometers south of Lumen Mountain, the army was in order, and there was no passive sabotage or disobedience to orders.
Standing on the hill of Lumen South Mountain, looking down from a high place, the surrounding situation is clear at a glance.
In addition to the two thousand-man teams responsible for guarding the south, the remaining four thousand people are responsible for digging soil, carrying stones, and building temporary fortresses on the hills.
"Lord Weilin, the commander's order." A knight walked quickly towards the tent on the hill and handed a military order to Weilin.
Weilin first checked whether the letter was complete. When he saw that it was not opened, he opened the letter and read it.
"The kingdom issued a notice that the eight western provinces will face an unprecedented drought that will last for more than two years. It will take some time for the news to reach here. You can prepare early. Do you need my help?"
"Go back and tell the commander that Weilin has known about it. I hope she doesn't worry. I have my own way to deal with it."
"Yes, sir."
The knight turned around and left with the order, returning to Lumen Mountain to report.
After the messenger knight left, Weilin had no time to plan the camp deployment. He came to a place on the hill where he could collect wind and sat cross-legged on the ground, thinking about the subsequent plan.
"The famine sacrifice broke out, affecting eight provinces and an area of nearly four million square kilometers."
"However, fortunately, we have stockpiled enough food and water in advance, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
Subjectively, Weilin thought that Qixing Lake must be within the scope of this disaster, but it was contrary to his wishes.
"This time, we should plan well and try to attract a certain number of civilians to settle in Qixing Lake, so as to achieve the goal of increasing the population without spending money."
It can be said that except for the initial fifteen people, the rest of the population of Qixing Lake was obtained through money, war and material transactions.
Afterwards, after Weilin completed the general idea, he returned to the camp to continue the deployment of Lumen Nanshan.
In the afternoon, a knight attendant came down the mountain with a letter and headed northeast.
"In the south, these four places, build outposts in turn, and light beacons to warn if monsters appear in large numbers."
"To the east, in the name of the defense army, send orders to the pioneer knights and nobles in this direction to assemble and stand by, ready to support at any time."
"To the west, clear out and drive away the monster clans, cut down and burn trees, and ensure that the view on the southern mountain of Lumen is unobstructed."
"To the north, always pay attention to whether there are any beacons from the outposts, and do not be negligent at all."
Wei Lin looked around, and his majestic eyes stared at everyone: "I emphasize again that these things are related to our lives. If you don't want to lose your life in vain, you should be alert to the fullest."
"Yes, sir." The six centurions beat their chests and saluted, and answered loudly.
"Okay, let's go down."
Everyone left one by one, and Wei Lin had a rare moment of leisure, and came to the bed to rest and recover his energy.
The next month is a critical period for building the city. You can't be careless, and you must always keep track of the progress.
...
Five days later, in the government of Qixing Town, Qixing Lake, Baird received a letter from his lord.
After opening the letter, Baird saw that it said, "Drought is sweeping the entire west. Be prepared to ensure the normal operation of the territory."
After receiving this letter, Baird was very confused.
According to the statistics reported by the villages below, this year must be a bumper year. There is sufficient water everywhere and no signs of drought.
"Food, yes, purchased food."
Looking at the dozen words above, Baird suddenly understood something, but the direction of understanding seemed to be a little biased.
Afterwards, Baird asked someone to call Raymondo, the leader of the caravan.
The right half of the Sinops subcontinent
