C183 The Three Forces of the Continent
The third time in the Hua Country, the Defense War had ended just like that. It had surprised all the other countries and races on the continent. Such a powerful human army, coupled with the divine Angel Legion. . . All of them were buried in the territory of the Hua Country. The war in the Hua Country had made the humans of the continent understand. Gods were not eternal, and even gods could be defeated.
At this time, the Supreme Church, which had been hiding in the dark, had started to develop in the continent. Its power seemed to have surpassed the Holy Church and the Dark Council. At this time, the continent had changed into a few groups after a few months of changes. First of all, the people of the continent believed that the most powerful group was the Hua Country. And after the third time in the Hua Country, the Defense War, its reputation had become extremely high. Immediately after that, those small countries around the Hua Country all submitted their credentials, hoping that the Hua Country would include them in the territory of the Hua Country. This time, the Hua Country didn't remain silent and directly agreed. Immediately after that, they sent troops over and began to organize. Within the Hua Country, there was naturally a logistics department that sent all kinds of people to the territories of the countries that had just merged.
After that, there was a large-scale reform. This time around, the Hua Country had absorbed nearly sixty plus Province in one go. According to the previous system of the continent, the Hua Country was now the fifth largest empire on this continent. Its military strength could be said to be the number one in the continent, but the establishment of the Hua Country this time did not invite or let the Pope of the Holy Church to grant it. Instead, the Hua Country directly allowed the Supreme Church to bestow it, and this time, the Supreme Church also became the Orthodoxy of the Hua Country. Of course, since Feng Xiaoran was the emperor of the Hua Country, and was also the master of the Supreme Church, it could be said that Feng Xiaoran's current status was very high. Of course, the territory of Hua Country had also expanded. All kinds of problems had been solved. First of all, there were so many extra territories, and the difference in living standards between the citizens of these countries and the people of the current Hua Country. This caused the officials in charge of this area to be in a tight spot.
Secondly, they had to settle the situation in so many countries. First, they had to build schools and roads on a large scale. Then, they had to stop using their finances. Currently, the national treasury of Hua Country was about to drop. If they could not think of a way to solve this problem. . . Then the emperor of Hua Country would be the first emperor on the continent who had no money. But those officials couldn't do anything about it now. His Majesty had already given the order to waive taxes for three years, so there was no way to collect money now. One must know that the military expenses of the soldiers in Hua Country were a huge sum of money. Now, all of them were squeezed together. It was depressing.
The second major power was the senior power in the continent, the Holy Church. Ever since the Holy Church suffered such a huge loss, they had never provoked the Hua Country again. This time, the Holy Church had gone completely silent. However, their influence in the continent was not to be underestimated. First of all, it was the old undying Pope. The two million that he got from Deaihua, the Angel Legion. After that, the Angel Legion, which was not worthy of one million, started preaching to the churches of the nations that had deep faith in the Holy Church. The Pope's method had a great effect.
Now, those angels had turned those people from the Hua Country into devils from hell, and those angels who died in battle died in order to protect the safety of the people on the continent. Of course, their death played a huge role, and that was to slow down the pace of the devils. They also claimed that the people in their territory had been bewitched by them. So now those people were the slaves of those demons, and the attractive conditions they claimed were all for the sake of luring those kind people into their country.
So now, because the Holy Church still had two million people from the Angel Legion and a large number of believers, the Holy Church's current strength was. . . It could be said that it had reached the greatest strength since the creation of the Holy Church, but because of the emergence of an even stronger Hua Country. . . Therefore, the current strength of the Holy Church was only ranked second. Not to mention, their 4. 5 million angel army had been eliminated. Such a huge loss indicated the depth of Hua Country. Now, all the countries on the continent had become obedient after the previous lesson.
Even if they were dishonest, they didn't have much strength left, but those countries that didn't send troops last time. . . Now, they had started to be arrogant, because the armies in their hands used to be trash in the eyes of those countries. But now, those countries didn't even have such trash. What was more amazing was that those countries didn't even have a decent army in their own countries. After all, they had sent so many troops last time, but they hadn't come back yet. It could be said that the last battle in Hua Country had destroyed the military foundation of these countries. As for those countries that didn't go, it wasn't because of the Holy Church. It was estimated that they would have started a long time ago.
Even with the protection of the Holy Church, there were still some countries on the continent that did not pay for the protection of the Holy Church. These countries also began to extend their evil hands towards the surrounding countries. This caused a chain reaction on the continent. Following that, those countries that did not send troops started to fight against the countries that had no military strength.
At this moment, the Holy Church's words were obviously useless, because they could clearly feel that the Holy Church was shrinking its power. The royal families of those countries that had their countries destroyed were now under the Holy Mountain of Light of the Holy Church. Now, they were waiting for the Pope of the Holy Church to make a fair decision. Of course, their goal was still to reclaim their country.
After all, the third Defense War in Hua Country was also called the Sacred War. All of these countries had moved their armies away, but now, not a single soldier had returned. This was nothing. Before the war, these countries had already prepared themselves mentally. However, what was even more infuriating was that those countries that did not participate in the holy war were now adding insult to injury. And now, the Holy Church did not even care about it. How could these royal families be willing to accept this?
Finally, when the voices of those countries below became louder, the Holy Church made a move - they sent out a hundred thousand men from the Angel Legion. After that, they destroyed all the armies of the countries that had invaded the other countries. At the same time, they made a statement that all the countries that had invaded the territories of the other countries should withdraw from their territories. Otherwise, the country that had their army destroyed would be their example. This time, some of the timid countries quickly retreated. However, as they retreated, they resolutely carried out a three-light policy in that country. When they retreated, In those countries, the only thing that could be seen was ruins.
The third major strength was the Dark Council, which had always been hidden under the eyes of the people. They thought that the Hua Country had won this time. This made these guys from the Dark Council really happy, because the Holy Church had lost in front of the Hua Country. Now that they had been humiliated, the hatred between the Hua Country and the Holy Church had become even more severe. In the eyes of the Dark Council, the Holy Church and Hua Country were mortal enemies. Either you die or I die. This was in line with the policy of the Dark Council. In the darkness, the Dark Council had slowly gained control of the strength of some countries. At this time, the Dark Council was still following their usual style. They hid it very well, but what they didn't know was. . . Feng Xiaoran knew everything that they were doing. Of course, Feng Xiaoran knew everything through those disciples of the Supreme Church. After that, he went deep into the Dark Council and obtained the information.
As for the spies of Supreme Church, none of them had been discovered by them until now. Feng Xiaoran had also given a very new training method for the spies of the Supreme Church to them. It was surprisingly good to not laugh at them. In addition, Feng Xiaoran had taught them the magic to deal with mental health, so they were now spies in Supreme Church. Their spies were now all over the continent. It could be said that the Pope would eat anything at night. If Feng Xiaoran wanted to know how much he had eaten, those people from the Supreme Church's intelligence department would be able to accurately report it to him. This also proved how powerful the Supreme Church was right now.
Of course, the Dark Council was aiming to cause both the Hua Country and Holy Church to suffer heavy losses. Now, he didn't want one of them to win. It would be very disadvantageous for him at that time. They were waiting for time to come. Ten years later, the seal of the passageway between him and the Devil Realm would be opened. At that time, he would be able to take advantage of the situation to break the seal on both of them. Of course, they had to take into account the strength of the God Realm. However, at that time, he believed that even if the God Realm attacked, the God Realm and Devil Realm would still be the ones to withdraw from the continent in the end. At that time, he would have to put in all of his efforts. Then, this Holy Church would be a small matter!
