An infinite journey that begins at Hogwarts

"An artifact with such clear self-awareness?"

Mystra showed a little surprise, but she quickly put away her surprise when she thought of Cedric's identity as the divine alchemist.

Of course he understood what Xiao Ai said.

The temples of Velen captured by Medea were all dedicated to Rose, so except for those hidden temples and the temples that Xiao Ai had taken control of.

Medea's already shaky faith was largely destroyed.

Fortunately, according to the Pantheon agreement, although two true gods can start a war, they cannot take the initiative to attack each other's temple. Otherwise, the damage caused by the divine war to mortals will be too great, which will destroy the foundation of all true gods.

However, although Rose did not take action, the 'Web Weaver' in her hands would not stop, and the clergy of Eilistraee were being hunted by Shar's men.

It can be said that the new Dark Elf Goddess Alliance is now in danger.

"My 'Order of Mystics' has already taken action and will help Eilistraee stabilize her faith." After Mystra finished speaking, she looked at Cedric. He did not know the details of Medea's deification. , and the location of Velen’s temple is too subtle, so it’s difficult to help.

Cedric pinched the bridge of his nose. There was nothing he could do about it. Nothing in the world was perfect. Medea was able to take Velen's power and become a god, which was a trick.

And now his faith is being destroyed on a large scale, causing his unstable foundation to collapse rapidly, and he may even fall from the throne of God.

But this is not something difficult to solve. The issue of faith must of course be solved with faith.

"I currently have a total of seven Dark Elf cities in my hands. How many do you have in your hands?" Cedric asked Eilistraee.

"If there is a riot, there will be about fifty buildings, and there will be a total of 24 that can seize control in a short period of time."

After receiving the information from the other party, Cedric immediately made a decision.

"Then launch the army, take advantage of Rose to mobilize the army to the empty area on the surface, capture the 32 cities among us, connect them in a line, and drive a nail into Rose's core."

"I think so too." Eilistraee nodded, "I immediately issued an oracle to have my temple worship the statue of Medea, which should be able to help him temporarily stabilize his faith, and Medea is The appearance of a true god who is willing to guide the dark elves toward the light will surely inspire those compatriots who dare not resist their mother's power."

Faith is another expression of faith.

The most important reason why Selun and Mystra worked hard to help Eilistraee regain the throne of God is that only the banner of the True God can make those dark elves who are willing to resist understand that there is hope for this resistance.

After all, in this world controlled by the True God, the only one who can fight against the True God is the True God.

It's like you've promised a bunch of empty promises, and at least you have to have Jack Ma's face on them, so that the other party will believe that all your boasts will come true.

"My temple faith in Dawn City will tilt towards Medea, and there is no problem in helping her stabilize her faith." Cedric said easily, because now Medea is the only one of his followers to become a god? So in Dawn City This main city with a population of millions, coupled with underground faith, is enough to help Medea stabilize her current throne.

But this is not a long-term solution.

Although after becoming a god, relying on the uniqueness of the mental image universe, it is estimated that he can maintain his true god status without faith, just like the innate ancient gods.

But many of his followers cannot achieve this? Cu Chulainn, Aiolia, Red Princess, and even Iron Fist all need faith to maintain their throne, so it is imperative to expand their faith. .

"Capture 32 underground cities?" Even Suellen and Mystra showed solemn expressions. Although it was fun to destroy the enemy's core area, it also meant that more resources were consumed to achieve it.

As for whether it is necessary to continue to invest so many resources? They are a little hesitant. After all, in their conception, driving a nail into the core area of ​​Rose's belief has already achieved the goal.

If they continue to help Cedric, their gains will not be able to continue to expand. After all, in the foreseeable future? Faced with the powerful god Rose.

Even if Medea and Eilistraee unite, they can only be in a posture of harassment and defense.

Moreover, as powerful gods, their territory is also very large, especially the current disaster in Faerûn, which requires them to spend energy and resources.

"Don't worry, you two. I will handle the matter of capturing 32 underground cities. All you need to do is stop Rose from taking action yourself." Cedric said.

Suellen and Mystra smiled at each other and nodded, "Then we will wait and see."

One month after Medea became a god, Cedric returned to the bloody battlefield.

With the power of killing Bair and Orcus, Cu Chulainn quickly united an army of tens of millions of demons.

Although this number looks terrifying, it is actually a ragtag group of people. It does not mean that the combat effectiveness of individual demons is not strong, but that there is no discipline at all in the army. It is conceivable that they will fight.

But this is also the reason why Cú Chulainn was able to raise so many troops in a short period of time. Just like the Yellow Turban Army in the late Han Dynasty, they often raised their arms and numbered millions, but they were completely defeated by tens of thousands of regular troops. Annihilate.

Moreover, the demon army is even worse than the Yellow Turban Army. More people often die at the hands of the devil himself than at the hands of the devil.

However, this kind of motley army successfully captured hundreds of bronze castles built by devils within a month or two. On the one hand, it was because after losing Bayer as commander, Zarrell wanted to reunite with the devil king. , which requires a lot of time.

Contrary to the devil's army, the devil's army advocates absolute order, so changing a top officer, even if it is an airborne top officer, still takes a lot of time to get used to, which is extremely bureaucratic.

On the other hand, Asmodeus, who has made a contract with Cedric, is also restraining his devils and adopting a passive appeasement strategy.

Therefore, although it seems that hundreds of the magnificent bronze castles built by the devil in the bloody battle were lost, there are not many actual casualties in the devil's army. They can attack the already deployed hundreds of bronze castles at any time without any numerical advantage. The devil launched a desperate counterattack.

"The longer the battle line is, before an absolute victory is achieved, no matter how big the advantage is, it may collapse overnight." Cedric sighed. No wonder so many famous generals in history who had clearly achieved absolute advantages would collapse in one fell swoop. Destroyed overnight.
