Chapter 211 The Emperor and the Bugs Fight

As the chief apostle of God Bo and the most trusted right-hand man of God, Sauter has always been at the rear.

The status of emperor is not an honor for him, but more responsibilities and burdens.

As the emperor of the empire, he must maintain the confidence and belief of the entire country.

With strong confidence, the army can be invincible; with strong faith, believers can offer a steady stream of fire of faith to God Bo.

The empire is full of confidence in this war. The extremely weak enemy is retreating steadily, and the final victory will definitely belong to the empire.

The barbaric and backward Kingdom of Wuji can only be destroyed, and the King of Wuji who rules the dark kingdom will also be judged by Lord Bo.

Everyone is convinced of this.

The appearance of the locust plague made Sauter feel a little uneasy.

This kind of bug is actually a mutated extraordinary species.

The timing is too much of a coincidence.

Now is the eve of the empire's conquest of the Wuji people. Not only the farmland and pastures behind them, but also the logistics lines connecting them are also being attacked by another kind of black monster.

Perhaps it was because the other apostles had been out of touch for so long that Sauter was worried that things were not going as planned.

It may also be due to concerns about hidden dangers in the empire.

As an emperor who has been in charge of the empire for many years, Sauter knows very well that the empire's tough and invincible legions rely on the dedication and patience of the civilians behind the empire.

The empire has more and more soldiers but fewer and fewer peasants, which has always been a huge problem.

Civilians are keen to become battlefield heroes, and they can quickly obtain rewards for killing enemies and performing special functions. People highly respect war, which makes the empire always exceed the quota every time it recruits troops. Many people boasted that this was a sign of the prosperity of martial arts and the prosperity of the empire.

Sauter has been trying to reverse that for years.

The empire needs more people, more farmers, more craftsmen and fishermen, and the number of soldiers today is already too many for the country.

He reduced the legion again and again, but in the end there were more and more soldiers.

These soldiers have various names, such as militia, auxiliary soldiers, engineers, reserve soldiers, engineering regiments... They do not occupy the corps establishment, but they are real soldiers.

Sauter killed batches of ministers and generals for this purpose.

But a large number of redundant soldiers still exist.

He never had a good look when facing bureaucrats.

The enemy is like some kind of immortal thing, constantly resurrecting in different ministers and generals, killing one and then the next. Unless everyone is killed, its ghost will not leave.

Sauter was tired.

He no longer wants to waste his energy on managing the secular world. These people are the resources of Lord Bo Shen and cannot be easily killed.

Yanihu, a fellow apostle, advised him: “Why bother?”

"They are just a group of mortals with a short life. As long as they can reproduce and devote their faith, nothing else matters."

"Saote, we are servants of the gods, mortals are just livestock. Why do we need to understand what livestock think? The food, gold, spouses, and land they compete for are all ridiculous things in our eyes."

"As long as they are alive and pious, our mission is accomplished."

Although Sauter had a different view, he did not refute it.

Because this is Lord Boshen’s will.

As the sole master of this world, God Bo's order for this empire is just that, provide population and faith, nothing else is important...

Having fewer personal thoughts on the part of the apostle would save many worries.

Sauter interrupted his thoughts and opened his hand.

Countless black smoke rose from his body, drowning all the locusts in the surrounding fields. Soon the locusts became stiff and could no longer move.

As long as it is a living thing, even an extraordinary creature, Sauter can easily deal with it. His smoke covers a wide area, and the smoke poison can easily kill all kinds of life trapped in it.

The locusts all over the mountains and plains were blackened and turned into stiff insect corpses.

But there was no joy on Sauter's face.

Because new locust swarms have arrived.

They pounced on the ground and ate the corpses of their own kind everywhere, without wasting any of them. Then they quickly lay eggs in the soil and continue to look for edible food around them.

nausea!

Sauter cursed in his mind.

Then he released more black smoke, poisoning batch after batch of locusts. This brought a huge consumption, making him feel particularly tired and his mana was somewhat stretched.

Suddenly, the oracle came.

A cold voice rang in my ears: "What's going on with the bugs?"

Sauter knelt on the ground and said tremblingly: "My lord, these bugs have evolved into extraordinary bodies. I am cleaning them up."

"Why."

Facing the god's question, Sauter was speechless for a moment.

Many reasons.

If other wild extraordinary creatures could be preserved, it would be difficult for these bugs to grow to such a large scale, and they would definitely be contained and hunted by other extraordinary groups.

If the extraordinary group born among mortals would not be executed, they would also be able to deal with these bugs on their own initiative to prevent their further expansion.

If there were more professions, agriculture was encouraged, and farmers who were good at dealing with pests could also solve the problem...

Unfortunately, these are impossible.

The empire is a huge pasture that provides faith and population for God Bo. There is no need for extraordinary beings to be distinguished from the group. They only need them to docilely and obediently give birth and offer the fire of faith.

"If other apostles had the same idea as you, it would have been built into an altar."

God Bo's cold voice came into his mind, making Sauter break into a cold sweat.

"Because of your loyalty, but I'm giving you one last warning. I just need you to execute and answer."

"Yes, my Lord."

Sote put his head on the ground to show absolute submission.

"Deal with the bugs. Now I have found King Wuji. His divinity is weak. I will deal with him immediately. During this period, don't make any mistakes."

"Yes, my Lord."

Until there was no more sound in his mind, Sote slowly got up after a long time.

As long as the Kingdom of Wuji can be swallowed, all kinds of problems can be solved.

As long as the empire wins and wins continuously, no matter how many problems this chariot has, it is not a problem.

Sote began to continue to kill the locusts, and the two sides fell into a war of attrition of mana and number.

...

The lethality of the bully locusts exceeded Lu Yao's expectations.

With almost no obstruction, they drove straight into the Bo God Realm, quickly settled and reproduced in the world of the Fearless Empire, and ate crops and various foods on the ground, turning the rear of the empire upside down.

From a bird's-eye view, Lu Yao noticed that the area around Crystal City had been completely occupied by locusts. This imperial capital was protected by a totem that prevented the bully locusts from crossing the city walls.

…

[Flame Totem]

Health: 700/700

Damage: 20

Defense: 8

Speed: 8

[Totem]

Choose an area for permanent placement, and automatically attack all believers within the range.

…

Six flame totems built an invisible moat, burning the approaching locust swarms into charcoal.

After suffering heavy casualties, the bully locusts found a way.

They laid their eggs deep underground. After these eggs hatched, some of them could enter the city from underground and cross the attack range of the flame totem.

As time went on, there were scattered bully locusts that had drilled into the city from underground, stealing and looking for food everywhere. The soldiers of Crystal City also took action, madly catching and killing insects.

But the defense line had been torn open, and Crystal City would have difficulty stopping the underground invasion of the insect swarm if it had no other means.

The only surviving apostle, Soter, as the emperor of the empire, even had to deal with the locust swarms personally.

Lu Yao looked at it with some regrets.

The Boshen Realm is a typical example of unbalanced and insufficient development.

The militaristic military empire must obtain resources from war to maintain the operation of the empire. Apart from the army, other professions and outputs are very scarce, and they are completely maintained by the power of gods and apostles, and cannot withstand any blows and disasters.

Boshen almost exterminated all the extraordinary creatures in this world, leaving only the sand lizards that can be tamed, and what they want is obviously absolute obedience.

Watching the emperor and the swarm of insects go back and forth, Lu Yao only felt absurd and magical.

The level of this chief apostle has reached LV40, and he is the strongest of Boshen's four subordinates. But he and the weak bully locusts on the panel are in a bitter battle, because the latter have long been all over the place, and the swarm of insects continue to gnaw on all kinds of food in this world, and their strongest weapon is their endless number.

The opponent of the emperor of the empire is not only the locusts, but also most of the natural world that provides logistics for the swarm.

At the same time, Isabel in the rear issued a reminder.

"My lord, King Wuji has taken the initiative to attack as you requested and successfully lured God Bo to take action."

Lu Yao put down the teacup.

The real owner finally came out.

He clicked on the golden wilderness and completely connected the northern new world and the world of the Kingdom of Wuji through [Create Connection]. The young dragon controlled the Dark Sun and the Dark Sun Legion to rush to the front line, ready to support the front at any time.

On the other side, the tyrant Salina locked the emperor of the empire and could behead him at any time.

The snowman dug a deep hole for a long time, and waited for God Bo to confirm the appearance of the battlefield before sneaking into the city. Under [Advanced Camouflage], it came all the way to the outside of the magnificent palace, ready to perform traditional crafts at any time.

Jimmy raised his arms and shouted: "For Lord Yaoshen! Punish the warlike evil god!"
