Chapter 819: Let Long Haochen Be The God Of Devils? (II)
On the occasion of the battle of wits between Long Haochen and the God of Devils at Yu Longguan, the war at the other side in the south was about to begin.
Both Samigina, the Undead Devil God, and Marbus, the Hell Devil God, were under the strict orders of the God of Devils. The God of Devils’ request for them was simple. They had to invade the Temple Federation as quickly as possible at all costs to carry out a full-scale plunder.
Yes, they only had to plunder, not to kill.
For human beings, the Devil’s clan was a thorn that stuck deep down to their flesh, and they wanted to get rid of them quickly. However, for the Devil’s clan, every human being was an extremely important resource. With good use, a human being’s all-out work could support one or two Devils. And although the Devils did not like the weakness of ordinary human beings, they had to admit the creativity and ingenuity of human beings. All human-made utensils were very popular among Devils. Therefore, even if there was such a bloodthirsty existence from the Undead Devil God and the Hell Devil God, when they were really faced with a group of humans who dare not resist, their choice must be the same, which was taking these humans back to the Devil’s clan instead of killing them.
Since inheriting the throne of the Devil God, Samigina had never accepted such an important order from the God of Devils, and he knew from the attitude of the God of Devils that if he could not complete this task, he might be the next to face the same fate as the star demon god Vashak, and for him, there was no possibility of resurrection.
From another point of view, Samigina also believed that there was no possibility of failure, at the same time, this was also a major opportunity for him. It was such a great chance to get fortune that if he did not take something from this task, he wouldn’t be called Undead Devil God. He would naturally hand in what he plundered, but it was normal to deduct some of it himself, and even the God of Devils would not take it seriously. What was lacking the most in the development of the Devil’s clan? It was resources! With these resources, the Devil’s clan would certainly make great progress. With the advantages of quantity and strength, as long as it could surpass the Moon Devil clan and the Star Devil clan in an all-round way, his ranking would certainly rise in the future.
As Samigina said to Marbus and Warlifer, the God of Devils would deal with Moon Devil God and Star Devil God in order to have Po inherit the throne in the future. It might even change the members of these two races. And at that time, it would be the moment when he rose. His practice level was far from the Moon Devil God and the Star Devil God, but it also meant that he would not affect Po’s future control of the Devils. At that time, he would be the most important subordinate of the new God of Devils.
It was for all these reasons that this battle meant so much to Samigina and he would do his best with all the elite Devils that went out collectively. Together with the elites of other ethnic groups, they went straight to the Southeast Fortress at the fastest speed.
Millions of elite soldiers of the Devil’s clan were divided into two groups, and the goal of his commander was directed at the nearest Southeast Fortress. On the other hand, Marbus and Warlifer led another 500,000 elite to attack the Wan Shouguan. Since Wan Shouguan was relatively difficult to attack, the number of Devils concentrated there was slightly bigger.
However, this did not affect Samigina’s confidence. He had made up his mind that, with the advantage of distance, he would rush into the interior of the Temple Federation before Marbus and Warlifer. In this way, not only would he have a better chance to plunder, but it would be the first great achievement for his fourth Devil’s Pillar.
Marching all the way, finally the Southeast Fortress appeared to their sight. Far away, there was a huge city in front of them. Samigina’s eyes shone ferociously and he shouted, “Pass down my order, and the whole army will rest and recuperate an hour later! Launch a full-scale offensive after that!”
After hearing his command, the four Devils could not help but be slightly surprised, they marched all the way down with a ridiculously fast speed, even if the Devils were very strong, they could not bear it. Was Samigina too much in a hurry to attack the city that would not give his subordinates enough time to rest? And this was bound to lead to a substantial increase in losses!
“Patriarch, don’t you want the subordinates to have a little more rest?” the number one Devil said tentatively.
Samigina glanced at him coldly and said, “Rest? Are you all tired?”
“No, no,” the Devils quickly replied in horror as if they were Samigina in front of the God of Devils. “I mean, the army must be very tired from marching all the way here. If you want to attack now, I’m afraid there will be a great loss.”
Samigina said coldly, “Even so, they are not my people. I have nothing to worry about. Even if you can’t guess my tactics, then humans obviously cannot either. By attacking them by surprise, we will be able to break through the Southeast Fortress in the shortest possible time and then we will aim at the Holy City. I can tell you that if we fall behind Marbus and Warlifer, we will not only be humiliated, but I am afraid they will take all the good things from us. Pass my order, after breaking into the fortress, plunder is carried out at will, and all the plundered goods will belong to themselves. Can you see what we’re going to do now?”
The four Devils looked at each other with a look of joy on their faces, and of course they believed in Samigina’s words. The great loss would not be the people of their Devil army, who only accounted for 1/5 of these 500,000 soldiers. Let other races be killed, but it must be their Devils who accomplish this great task. What’s more, this time they were all elite Devils, which was not like the small fuss from the previous Holy War. And the Southeast Fortress had never been the strongest of mankind.
The four Devils immediately went down to make arrangements. With Samigina as the manager, thes dared not express his dissatisfaction even if the Devils who accompanied him were dissatisfied. That was because he was one of the five pillars of the Devil’s clan.
The commander of the army, Samigina, the Undead Devil God, appeared and soon the Southeast Fortress naturally found out.
Qiu Yonghao commanded the high level of Soldiers Temple and the generals of the army of the six temples to gather at the top of the Southeast Fortress and looked out into the distance.
He nodded gently and Qiu Yonghao who shook his fist vigorously. “Here they come. The information is absolutely right. Samigina, the Undead Devil God, this time, you will know the strength of my Southeast Fortress.”
In a war, information always comes first, and accurate information could completely cause the outcome of a war. Qiu Yonghao got not only the exact time of the enemy’s arrival, but also detailed information on the number and ranking of Devils in the army of Devils, as well as the proportion of armies of various races. And this information naturally came from Yue Ye’s organization.
As early as three days ago, in order to deal with the Devil army of the Undead Devil God Samigina, the Southeast Fortress carried out comprehensive preparations. Samigina, of course, did not know that the situation of his army information had already been revealed, and one trap after another was waiting for him to jump into it.
The time of an hour would soon be up. For the army of Devils who had come from afar, an hour was not enough for them to fully recover. The best they could do during that time was to eat something and have a short rest. Even among the Devils, military orders could not be disobeyed. And the rule of the Devil’s clan was even harsher, and there was only one end for soldiers who disobey orders. That was death. Therefore, even though there were many complaints from the underlings, under the command of Samigina, the Undead Devil God, the Devil army was still assembled.
Samigina looked at the Southeast Fortress in the distance, waved his right hand forward and said, “Attack. The first one to rush into the Southeast Fortress will be rewarded with a hundred human slaves.”
For the Devil’s clan, the best way to measure wealth was to resources, and human slaves had always been the most precious resources and wealth among the Devil aristocracy. The same rule applied in even Devil Gods.
Other Devils, who were dissatisfied with Samigina’s arrangement before, immediately thought of the rich resources and wealth in the human world after hearing his words. For a time, the Devil generals forcibly suppressed their physical and mental tiredness, and the commander-in-chief went straight to the Southeast Fortress.
It was certainly impossible for Samigina to throw 500,000 troops into attacking the city at once. However, he had also been in command for many years, and even if other races were used as cannon fodder, this intention would never be too obvious.
The first wave was 50,000 Devils. The Southeast Fortress front wall was not too wide, therefore, 50,000 Devils was the largest number that could be accommodated on the battlefield.
In front of the race were the wild Devil race and the Bird Devil race. Neither of these races was protected by Devil Gods. Therefore, naturally, not many people cared about their life or death. But there was no doubt that both races were quite effective. This time, the elite army of the Devil had no weak ones at all. There was no cannon fodder army like Double-Knife Devils.
Magic Eye Wizard race went along with the Wild Devil race and the Bird Devil race. These races together, the number was exactly about 50,000. They attacked from both the sky and land and went straight to the Southeast Fortress.
If one looked down from high above, one could see that the army of Devils pounced on the Southeast Fortress like a mass of locusts.
Qiu Yonghao looked coldly at the army in the distance and raised his right hand, “Here we go.”
The low sound of magic casting quietly sounded at the top of the Southeast Fortress, and the rich elements fluctuated. Whether it was a wizards, priest or summoners, each was assigned with at least two magic crystals.
After determining that this Holy War with the Devils was the most critical war of the Temple Federation, and even the best chance to defeat the Devils for good, the Temple Union spared no expense to use all the resources at its disposal. The Holy League Auction Ground donated almost all the stored equipment and magic crystals and they only asked the Temple Union for a signed document acknowledging their debts in return.
