Chapter 112
Chapter 112
The king of war was defeated, and the king of war was defeated.
Saint Elizabeth was also shocked when she received this information. How could the Demon King's army retreat so casually?
In the past, the kingdom consumed a huge amount of human and material resources to resist the attack of the Demon King's army. Even though both sides consumed a huge amount, the kingdom and the Demon King's army had no intention of stopping. The rulers of both sides still actively launched wars and took the lead in provoking conflicts.
Now the warlike Demon King's army actually abandoned the war just because Princess Lilith fell in love. This is completely incredible.
Travelers with special skills can understand the incredibleness of it.
As a holder of special skills, there is no threshold of demigod. As long as you kill, you can become a demigod and reach the peak of your life. Therefore, there are many travelers in the kingdom army, not just Lin Changqing.
Demigods are formed by the mortals who died in the war. Without war, the efficiency of upgrading by taking risks to kill monsters is too low. Only war can obtain a large number of souls and skill points, and only war can have a reason to kill faster.
And now, the Demon King's army has taken the initiative to stop fighting and retreated first. The soldiers of the human army are now in a state of carnival. Many residents of the city have shed tears of liberation. The war has finally stopped.
"Grandma! Did you see it? I did it!"
"It's finally over! We defeated the Demon King's army!"
Many soldiers in the kingdom were recruited from civilians and forced to participate in the war. The war has lasted for thousands of years and has never stopped. Many families have been destroyed because of the war. Now it has finally stopped. The happiest are the soldiers at the bottom, and the happiest are the families who see their children returning safely.
The news that the Demon King's army withdrew and ceased fighting spread throughout the kingdom in an instant. The whole kingdom fell into carnival, but the palace in the royal city was in chaos.
At this moment, the commanders responsible for resisting the Demon King's army were arguing in the palace.
"The seven million soldiers recruited this year cannot be supported at all! If the war stops, these seven million soldiers will be completely useless. Our kingdom does not have so much food and gold coins to provide these seven million soldiers!"
"Seven million soldiers? How can so many be recruited! Didn't you report to me one million last time?"
The minister in charge of finance has long known that the war staff has been falsely reporting the number of recruits, but this false number is too much!
"How do I know they will survive! According to my calculations, if the war continues, the number of survivors will be around one million!"
The kingdom has been promoting the invasion of the demons. It is the unshirkable responsibility of humans to resist the demons, so joining the army to resist the demons is an obligation. This is an obligation that every resident of the kingdom must fulfill after adulthood. This is to defend their homes and protect their loved ones. Even if they die, they can only get honorary titles and no compensation.
But those who participated in the war to defend their homes and survived will have their families paid. After all, death is the majority, and only a few survive. Only by constantly surviving can the kingdom have the meaning of cultivation. Those who fail to survive on the battlefield are just experience packs, and they die.
Now, there are too many people who survived. They are still in the army. Every year, they have to be issued a certain amount of gold coins, and they are provided with food and accommodation. With the economic strength of the kingdom, it is simply not possible to support so many soldiers.
"We will start to fight back against the demons now, let the legions advance, and the war will go on!"
"What's the difference between this and letting them die!"
"Aren't they meant to die!"
"It's different! The area where the demons live is not suitable for human survival at all. We have no reason to break in. This will lose most of the people's hearts, and the faith will collapse! We must have a reason to send troops!"
The young man on the throne looked at this scene, said nothing, and continued to hug the forest elves around him who wanted to resist.
"Didn't you take your people to the north to find the Elf Tree? My people came back and told me that they didn't find anything."
The boy didn't forcefully deal with the rebellious forest elf, but teased the blinded forest elf on his body.
"There is no Elf Tree there! You think too much!"
The boy laughed and whispered to the forest elf's ear:
"Why did you take your people there if there is no Elf Tree! The more you say there is no Elf Tree, the more I will look for it! Hahaha! That beauty named Jin Lisi is unwilling to be my maid and wants to leave the Knights.
", kill him."
Speaking of this, the young man pushed the forest elf off the throne and threw it to the ground. The forest elf was like a delicate woman and could not resist at all. Even though the forest elf had already stepped into the imperial ranks, it was still like a plaything in the hands of the young man.
The young man sat lazily on the throne and raised his arms, and the ministers below instantly quieted down.
"My sons! You don't have to worry! Who were the demigods sent to that Banwang City before? They betrayed the kingdom and their memories were controlled by the demons! Banwang City has been occupied by the Demon King's army. The Demon King's army found that they could not take the kingdom in the south, and now they are attacking us from the north. What do you think we should do?"
"By the way! William, I heard that you and Elizabeth are very close. Let her tell that old guy Siskett that the three demigods have rebelled, and the church should know how to deal with demons who betrayed humans. "
Prince William was called, and the surprise came so quickly that he didn't react. It seems that his previous efforts were seen by his father, and his efforts were not in vain!
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
The boy waved his hand and said:
"We are a family! You are all my good sons, and you don't need to bring those mortal names to me. Everyone, go away! Don't scare your mother! "
As he spoke, the boy, who had no dignity at all, picked up the forest elf that fell to the ground and stopped looking at the kingdom's ministers.
Everyone present was indeed the boy's descendants. After all, as a king, he was a strong man beyond the demigod. The last emperor of the kingdom had always been this boy, the nameless king. For thousands of years, there has been no change, and the princes can only seek some important rights in the kingdom, which has led to many of the kingdom's ministers being princes and grandchildren.
As the last prince, William did not expect that he would get his father's attention. He was blessed with a long life after great difficulty. William did not intend to let himself die in obscurity. This time was undoubtedly an opportunity.
William did not know before How did the princes of previous generations survive? The royal family's talents seemed to be not very good, and the king would not bless the children and rarely care about what they did.
Today, William learned a secret from the princes who returned from the battlefield. That is the secret to becoming a demigod, that is war. Mortals are just experience packs used to improve their status. As long as wars are constantly launched, the commanders of the wars can survive and absorb the souls that died on the battlefield to become true demigods.
This is the secret of demigods, and this is the secret of survival.
In a war, there will always be demigods who die. For example, this time, the bounty of three demigods is undoubtedly an opportunity for three demigods to advance!
