Chapter 161 Snatching the Demiplane! 【Ask for a Recommendation Ticket】
The time is quietly approaching November.
As the army sent by Sauron cleared most of the undead on the south coast, the refugees gathered near the city also began to return home. The Temple of Agriculture took the opportunity to expand the scope of believers. The priests and druids of the Goddess of Agriculture began to distribute winter wheat seeds to the refugees for free, and then resettled these people to the land around the Windspear Hills. Because some cities had been destroyed, Adele Isabella also suggested to Sauron to expand the size of the territory, so the Windspear Hills annexed the territories of the three nearby cities, expanding the area by about 500 square kilometers. Most of the original nobles in these territories died of the disaster of the undead, and the surviving bloodlines are all side branches, and they are not eligible to fight for the right of inheritance at all.
same.
With Sauron in the background, the Duchess of the Red Dragon also began to attack the nobles in the Principality of Rossard. The undead had already retreated hundreds of kilometers away, approaching the edge of the halfling's territory, and the necromancer gave up this land. Land, began to walk death elsewhere. Their task is to walk death, so as to collect the power of death, and help the god of death Naraku and the undead monarchs to advance. After this disaster, the population on the south coast has been reduced by about half, and the remaining population is almost all under the protection of big cities, so they set their sights on other places.
For example, the Shire region, which has hardly been affected much from the beginning until now.
The halflings are well protected by their gods, and have not received much impact so far, but they don't have so many concerns about the undead, and the halfling race is their next target.
at the same time.
In Modo City, an overseas archipelago, the city hall started the third census because of the approach of the New Year.
The census of Modo City is carried out almost every year, but this year is a little different. Under the arrangement of Sauron, the high priest began to conduct a census of the number of believers in the church. Because of the witch's assistance, the entire census process was quick, and Sauron got a document a few days later.
"very good!"
Sauron looked at the numbers calculated above and couldn't help but smile and said, "You guys did a good job."
The population of Modo City is growing rapidly.
Now including the population of Treasure Island and other nearby islands, the total population of Modo City has reached about 400,000. This is mainly because Sauron has completed the planning of the city, and the housing and farmland are sufficient to maintain a huge population. need. This number is still increasing, and it is estimated that the population of Modo City will reach more than 600,000 next year. According to the statistics of the city hall, many wealthy families from other places want to move to Modo City to avoid the war, for which the city hall has received a lot of extra taxes. Then there is the number of followers of Sauron, which is an obvious huge increase.
In the beginning, Sauron's believers were mainly concentrated among the half-elves, but now he only has about 300,000 believers in Modo City, and the half-elves who originally occupied the main position only account for one-third of the current proportion.
This has a lot to do with Sauron's [Government] domain.
Because of the prosperity of Modo City, many humans have become followers of Sauron, and this number is still increasing steadily.
"There are 300,000 believers in Modo City. If you add other places, there should be about one million believers. That is to say, if I advance to [Great Divine Power], I won't be unable to bear the consumption."
Gods cannot be promoted indiscriminately.
If there is not enough believer base there, blind promotion will only make you enter a period of divine power decline. Generally, maintaining a strong divine power requires at least one million believers. If there are not so many believers, then the power of the gods will be lost. It decreased little by little, and finally declined to [medium divine power]. Similarly, if the number of believers is sufficient, even the gods with [medium divine power] will be promoted slowly, and it may take hundreds of years to directly reach strong divine power. The expansion of Modo City has guaranteed the number of Sauron's followers, which means that he only needs to make up the godhead and divinity points to become a powerful god. In fact, it proves that Sauron's initial layout is correct. If he doesn't build Modo City, if he wants to gain believers, he must rely on priests to spread slowly like other gods. It is a very slow process, not hundreds of years old. time is impossible.

Realm of Bones.
This is a half-plane between the spirit world and the underworld. It was born more than three thousand years ago, and its creator is said to be a demigod lich.
In the long history of the multiverse, there have been many powerful figures comparable to the gods, and the demilich is undoubtedly the one closest to the gods. Many demilicches are trying to obtain the power of the true god, but currently there is only one The God of Lich was obtained by luck, the mysteries of the gods are not so easy, and the gods will not easily allow other people to get involved. However, the legacy of this demigod lich still undoubtedly remained, that is, this demiplane that he spent hundreds of years cultivating. Compared with other spellcasters, the demilich has enough time to squander, so this demiplane was already quite large at the beginning of its birth.
Demiplanes grow over time.
Therefore, there are more and more worlds of bones attached to the gap between the spirit world and the underworld, and in the end it is almost equivalent to the size of a small principality.
For more than 3,000 years, the Realm of Bones has gradually become stable, and because of the fall of the demigod and lich, this demiplane is getting closer and closer to the underworld, and finally attached to it, as if circling the earth. Like the spinning moon. Therefore, this demiplane has also become a place where the undead live. The underworld is the domain of the death gods. Many powerful undead are unwilling to attach themselves to the underworld and can only gather in these demiplanes. For a long time, this demiplane has been controlled by a powerful winter ghost. This winter ghost is the creation of the demigod lich and possesses very terrifying strength.
But later this winter ghost was killed by the servants of death, and a powerful bone lord took over here.
He calls himself the 'Skeleton King'.
But in fact, almost no one pays attention to his title, because basically every powerful bone lord likes to call himself the skeleton king.
The outbreak of the plague of undead caused the skeleton lord to covet the soul of the material plane. However, he was cautious and did not send all the troops, but kept some of them stationed in this demiplane. He was afraid that others would rob it.
And today!
Under the gray-black night sky, near the edge of the Bone Realm, a blood-red portal opened.
On one side is the gray death field, and on the other side is the dark red fiery highland inside the portal. Countless restless and excited demons appear on the other side of the portal. Luomo flew up excitedly and rushed directly into the realm of bones.
For demons, there is nothing more interesting than playing the Abyss to rob other demiplanes!
