In the world of Ao, except for a small number of gods who grasp the origin of the world, most are believed to be sealed gods, and the existence of the gods is linked to the number of mortal believers.

  The weakest divine power believers are at least a thousand or eight hundred.

  There are many believers in weak divine power, probably around a few thousand to twenty or thirty thousand.

  The followers of Zhongde Shengling are also limited in number, probably around 100,000.

  Only a powerful deity can have more than ten million followers.

  At this moment, in the highest throne of the chaotic divine realm, the black-eyed and slender Shirek is frantically smashing everything he can see. The cold room was in a mess.

  Xī Ruì Kè is now a medium-level divine being, originally the indirect loss of followers caused by the death of the three high-ranking priests was already heart-wrenching for him. Now he's having bad luck, even drinking water gets stuck in his teeth, and suddenly he lost nearly a thousand followers again. Just thinking about it makes one know how painful it is.

  Directly from the spiritual world, he contacted his high-ranking priest Dag, and as soon as they connected, a mad dog-like roar erupted: "Dag! What's going on?! Didn't you tell me that you saw with your own eyes that little worm Raven was already dead in the crevice of the Bit Plane? Answer me, who is this smiling slaughterer of my followers?!"

  Shrek instantly transmits the image of the former Queen of the Fairy Godmother's people, transmitted to Shrek at the last moment, to Donkey.

  At a glance, he was completely disheveled.

  "No, this can't be... I clearly saw him..." Darg's tongue was tied in knots, his entire body left with only fear, as he continuously kowtowed to Shrek.

  "Good for nothing! Is this how you handle things? I'd have better luck sending a pig to do the job!" Shrek snapped venomously at Donkey.

  Dagur doesn't dare to contradict him even half a sentence. Xeridia likes to use fear to force mortals to worship him, but he extremely hates it when his followers abandon him and hates all kinds of situations that reduce the number of followers.

  That's right, Xiliek was deified in human form, so he is extremely disgusted with the followers of non-human intelligent races. Disgust is one thing, being completely eliminated and no longer providing him with faith power is a big deal. In his eyes, all descendants of believers are his private property.

  To change one's faith or no longer believe in it is a shameful betrayal.

  Levin's slaughter and counterattack were almost enough to cut off Shrike's lifeline.

  Can't stand it!

  Absolutely can't stand it!

  "Bastard! I'll make that little brat pay a thousand times over! I'll kill him, and torture his loved ones to death!" Shrek's black eyes finally had a second color - the blood red of rage.

  Dag suddenly fell silent, and Shrek asked: "What's wrong? Doesn't that little guy have any relatives or friends?"

  Daguerre reluctantly replied: "He has a non-biological sister."

  "Great! Kill her with the most brutal method!"

  "...in the greatest church of love and goodness."

  Shrek's body shook slightly, choosing silence.

  "He also has a half-bear person friend."

  "Right! That's it! I was just short of a bearskin for a seat cushion."

  "That half-bear person seems to be a chosen one of Talos, the Storm God."

  "......" Shrek had had enough of Darg's heart, how could one or two be the great gods he couldn't afford to offend!? Shrek also got angry: "Less nonsense, tell me, which one can be killed!?"

  "Yes! Raven seems to be getting close with Sains of the Kingdom of Goleinpais."

  "Bullshit! That Phantom Sword Saint was already on my hit list!" Shrike finally lost his patience, a divine punishment came down, and Darg was knocked to the ground, writhing in agony.

  "My lord! Spare my life!"

  Without heeding Darg's plea for mercy, Shrek said coldly: "Darg - you deal with the tail you left behind!"

  Dag was alarmed upon hearing this. Raven was massacring in the lower planes, where the strong would be greatly suppressed if they entered. To let Dag, a legendary powerhouse, enter such a tiny place at the peak of White Silver, was simply a waste of talent and a death wish.

  Especially mages, before Golden Stage are extremely vulnerable, otherwise why so many mage masters need to bring so many followers when they go out.

  Xiliek's rage inadvertently transmitted to the minds of all high-ranking priests under his command through a spiritual connection, and the high-ranking priests contacted Xiliek one after another, asking what was wrong.

  The result was good, and the individual scolding turned into a public denunciation meeting.

  Dag could easily imagine the smug expressions on Tinos and Flan's faces, but he didn't dare utter a single word in retort.

  "Great lord, may I offer an opinion?" spoke Tinios, most trusted of Xeridia's advisors.

  "You said."

  "Even if Darg is a pig, he's a legendary-tier pig, his existence can intimidate quite a few sinners who ignore the glory of our Lord. Sending him to the highest plane that can only accommodate silver-rank...is actually still a bit wasteful."

  Dag's face turned beet red with rage, his teeth almost clenched to the point of shattering, and in his heart he cursed Tinos to death millions of times.

  Unfortunately, Dagu can only remain silent.

  Tinos sneered and proposed, "My lord, I suggest that Dague dispatch his strongest subordinates to lead the Dark Day's Pursuer troops in hunting down Raven. As for more powerful forces, it's better not to make any rash moves."

  Dag's face darkened as soon as he heard it. Simply proposing to send out a few hunters, if they failed, the blame would naturally fall on Tinuos who made the proposal. If Dag's subordinates were in charge, success would not be rewarded because this was purely an ass-covering action. But if they failed, that would be great, Dag would definitely be guilty of a more serious crime.

  "Alright! It's settled then." Shrek's agreement made Darg's heart drop into the icy lake, completely losing its temperature.

  Like an orphan who has lost his parents, Da Ge reluctantly accepted the task with a bitter face.

  As for Shrek's situation, Raven didn't know, but could roughly guess eight or nine out of ten.

  Twenty-four hours had passed and Raven began reviewing his new subordinates.

  The Shadow Weaver Queen's efficiency was still high, and in the event of exhausting all life force from the hive, the queen created a total of 120 Shadow Weaver soldiers with challenge levels of only level 25. Then, using the 100 servants she had created, she equipped these soldiers with slightly coarse composite longbows.

  Raven looked down on the old habit of the Abeja warriors who liked to use long spears for thrusting.

  Can fly, have speed, have accuracy, what else can be learned from human close combat?

  It's all over after a long-range full shot.

  Long-range troops playing close combat is absolutely a brain-damaged behavior.

  As for the lack of close combat troops, Raven went crazy and ordered the queen to order all shadow bee servants to pick up the long spears of the previous Abbee soldiers and serve as melee troops.

  A weak force attacking a strong force is originally just a gamble.

  Even if all the soldiers and servants were wiped out, Raven wouldn't feel any pain as long as the Queen of the Hive could stay.

  "Departure! Target - the cave of the side-facing batman!"

  Troggs are hulking, bat-like humanoids that live deep within underground caverns. They are omnivores and generally pose no threat unless attacked. To date, most sages believe they were wiped out in an ancient war with the dark elves.

  In fact, these remaining survivors have become followers of Xeridia, waiting for the call of the Dark Day to throw them back into war.

  An adult gargoyle bat is over two meters tall, with a covering of reddish-black or reddish-brown fur on its body. This creature has longer arms and shorter legs, with the head similar to that of a bat, and tough black skin membranes stretching from wrist to ankle. The hands and feet of the gargoyle bats are long and narrow, with thick short curved fingers and toes, ending in retractable claws. Fingers and toes along with heels and palms all have hair edges, which enable them to grip more firmly.

  Goblins are bipedal creatures. They usually walk upright with a swaying gait, but they can also drop down to all fours and run at twice their normal speed. Typical goblins wear armor and carry toolbelts for carrying tools and weapons, although there are exceptions.

  In normal circumstances, the Shadow People would have no chance of defeating this robust tribe.

  But Raven has a good idea!
