Who taught him to restore the country like this?

However, just two months ago, the peace that had lasted for hundreds of years was suddenly broken, and the long-lost dusk finally arrived in Mithian without any warning.

For a moment, Misian State fell into chaos, and the Evil God Cult took advantage of the situation to sneak in.

The Grand Duke of Misian State also led his soldiers and many "heroes" to engage in a brutal tug-of-war with the evil cult that was surging like a tide.

The battle lasted for a month, and eventually, under the influence of the Dusk End and the frenzied attacks of the Cult of the Evil God, the defense line of Mithian State was torn apart.

The Grand Duke had to lead the remaining troops to retreat to the rear of the provincial capital to hold their ground.

Without the protection of the Grand Duke's power, the counties ahead quickly collapsed like sand castles in the face of the Evil God Cult's crazy offensive.

In just one month, most of the territory of Misian State had fallen and turned into a living hell.

All the towns that fell under the clutches of the evil cult suffered devastating disasters without exception.

The evil cult likes sacrifices and is brutal and cruel.

All those with high faith power will be captured and sacrificed to the evil god to seize his power.

And those civilians who do not have much power of faith and are regarded as useless become the prey of the evil cultists for entertainment and practice.

A week ago, Saige Town, which was on the path of the Evil God Cult's army, inevitably became the Evil God Cult's "supply" point.

The resistance of Saige Town was as ridiculous as a mantis trying to stop a chariot in the eyes of the Evil God Cult. The priest of the Evil God Cult captured the hero of Saige Town with just one move.

The town's strong men were all taken away as reserve supplies, and the remaining civilians were brutally sacrificed on the spot.

After completely draining the town of Saige and turning it into a dead ruin, the main force of the Evil God Cult left like a swarm of locusts.

But they left behind a small team of scavenger-like soldiers to continue searching for the hidden fish that had escaped the net.

Then, it was the scene that Ron had seen not long ago.

Ron listened quietly, his face showing no emotion.

He glanced at the twenty or so survivors in the house again and asked, "Are you the only ones left in this town?"

"There should still be some people hiding in the town." Mark answered uncertainly.

A town of more than a thousand people now has only a few dozen left...

Including those who were hiding in dark corners like frightened birds, there were probably less than a hundred people.

Ron's brow furrowed slightly.

Because the methods of the Evil God Cult are so cruel and unreasonable, they are very different from the description in the game.

Although the Evil God Cult is still brutal and bloodthirsty in the game, it will not kill all the people.

After all, civilians are free labor, and killing them is not conducive to the evil cult's rule over these places.

In the game, Mithian State is the "granary" of the evil god cult, with at least hundreds of thousands of civilians.

But the current situation is that after the evil cult burned, killed and looted, they left people behind to stake out the place, leaving almost no one alive.

According to their current approach, it would be great if they could have 10,000 people left after conquering Misian Province.

Such a big discrepancy is obviously abnormal.

Ron thought for a moment.

He soon realized that the dog was targeting him.

According to Mark, the main force of the Evil God Cult has swept through Kanare County like plowing the land. Now this area has probably become a real death zone with very few living people.

what does this mean?

This means that his plan to quickly restore his strength by sheltering a large population and obtaining a stable and continuous power of faith will hardly work here.

well.

First, he was sent to the disaster zone, and then all the people in this area were killed, so that he could not obtain the power of faith to improve himself.

God of Light, you have already met your end!

After greeting the God of Light in his heart, Ron began to think of a solution.

If he had stayed in this rear area that had been looted by the Evil God Cult, his safety might have been temporarily guaranteed, but the power of faith he had accumulated would definitely not be enough for him to gain a foothold in the Kingdom of God.

According to the situation in Saige Town, even if all the survivors in the rear were gathered together, the power of faith obtained would probably only be enough for him to barely recover to the fourth level.

This is not good.

You should know that many players' spawn points are in safe areas. Although starting in a safe area will be much slower, the upper limit is higher.

Once they get started and on the right track, with the huge population base, those people will definitely be able to advance to the seventh level, eighth level... or even higher. It will not be difficult at all.

By then, he will be like a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.

"It's probably too late to leave this deserted area and go to a safe area now. It seems the only way is to start with sacrifice..."

"Cough cough... poof..."

A violent cough interrupted Ron's thoughts.

Ron looked up and saw a skinny little boy in the corner hugging a middle-aged woman and crying loudly.

The woman's face was pale, and the clothes on her chest were soaked with dark red blood. She coughed violently and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Then her body went limp and she completely lost consciousness.

"Mom..." the little boy cried in panic.

Ron hesitated, but finally stood up and walked over to the woman.

He squatted down to check. The wound was on his back, a deep cut that exposed the bone.

With a thought, a bottle of low-level healing potion gleaming with soft green light appeared in his hand.

He pinched the woman's mouth open and carefully poured the medicine in.

The drug takes effect quickly.

The woman's breathing, which was so weak that it almost stopped, gradually became clear and steady, and the black blood oozing from the wound on her back slowly stopped.

But her face was still as pale as paper, and the situation was not optimistic.

"Is there a doctor among you?" Ron asked, standing up.

Among the 26 people present, many were seriously injured. If they did not receive treatment, they might not survive the night.

Low-level potions can only stabilize injuries. To completely cure such serious trauma and infection, one must rely on professional medical conditioning and follow-up medications.

As for why you don’t buy mid- to high-level healing potions…it’s not your money, so you don’t feel bad about it.

There were so many people injured in the disaster area. He would have to use mid- to high-level potions to treat them later. It wouldn't be long before he went bankrupt.

That precious reputation point was his trump card for dealing with fatal crises and turning the tide at critical moments, and it was impossible to use it on those who had become history.

"The doctor... was captured by the evil cult." Mark replied, his voice full of sorrow.

"How strong is that evil cult team?" Ron asked after thinking for a while.

The enemy had only been away from Saige Town for a few days. According to their habit of staying in a town for a few days after capturing it, they should not have gone far.

If we chase them now, we might be able to catch up with this evil cult team carrying "supplies".

"Very strong!"

Mark recalled the horrific scene that day and his body trembled involuntarily: "The priest of the evil god cult must be at least level five!"

He said with certainty.

Because the fourth-level hero of Saige Town was easily defeated by him.

Forget it then.

Ron immediately gave up the idea of ​​​​chasing.

After he saved the lives of more than ten followers of the evil god, his current strength was somewhat relaxed with the blessing of the power of faith, and he could now use the second-level skills.

With the help of the Heart of the White Lion and the alloy rod, the maximum burst is only level four.

Chasing after them would mean death.

Let’s improve our strength again.

"Mark, do you have a map?" Ron asked.

There should be many lone evil god believers in the towns near Saige Town.

"I'm sorry, Lord Ron, I can't even provide you with a map right now." Mark said ashamedly.

"It doesn't matter."

Ron moved his mind, and another bottle of low-level healing potion appeared in his hand. He walked to another seriously injured person:

"You should know which towns are near Saige Town? Tell me about it."

"Yes."

Mark nodded and told Ron about the terrain around the town.

While listening, Ron exchanged low-level healing potions and fed them to those who were seriously injured.

Saige Town is located on the border of Kanare County. There are two small towns of the same size as Saige Town and one medium-sized town around it.

Among them, medium-sized towns are likely to be the next destination of the evil cultists that are plaguing Saige Town.

"...Lord Ron, are you leaving?" Mark asked with a heavy expression after describing the terrain and towns around Saige Town.

"Yeah." Ron nodded.

After hearing this, Mark and everyone in the room's eyes dimmed and a look of loss appeared on their faces.

"Don't worry, I'm just going to see if anyone is still alive." Ron said calmly.

Everyone heard this and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sir Ron, the evil cultists in those towns may not have left yet. It's not safe for you to go there now." Mark said worriedly.

"It's okay, I can handle it." Ron said calmly.

It is for those lone followers of the evil god.

Why would I go there after I’ve finished walking?

"If anyone among you knows the way, come with me..." Ron glanced at the old, weak and sick people in the room and swallowed back the words he was about to say.

It's freezing and snowy, and I'm afraid these people will have to lie down halfway through the journey.
