Is it so easy for religion in another world to win?

But these things are not important now. Now he just needs to complete Rand's task.

The rest is not within his consideration.

Thinking of this, he began to write letters. Every once in a while, he would report to Rand to facilitate Rand's regulation.

At this time, Rand was dealing with the secret letter sent by Taner last time. He selected some replies that he understood, and as for those that he didn't understand, he left it to Taner.

In fact, if the nest is a dynasty, then Taner is a general. When a general is outside, he should not interfere too much.

It's a pity that it's just a thought now. I don't know when the nest can develop.

But now it seems that the potential is not bad. Taner's abilities in all aspects are better than Rand thought. After several letters, Rand is more relieved about him.

Walking out of the sacrificial room and heading to the construction site of the nest, it must be said that the efficiency of the Minotaur construction team is very high. The large bath built with neatly cut stones has begun to take shape.

In addition, in order to facilitate Ellie and Olena, the heroes who brought horses to the den, Rand built a small bath for them to take a bath, so that they would not have to go outside to take a wild bath all the time and waste their rest time.

Anyway, since the small bath was built, the work efficiency of Ellie and Olena has improved, and Rand is quite satisfied with his wisdom.

Only by improving the happiness of employees can we squeeze them better!

Then came the training of the second batch of soldiers in the den. Young people with relatively clean backgrounds were still selected, and the old people who had followed Rand for a long time were placed as grassroots officers, and then trained together.

This batch of Rand brought some private military thoughts from his previous life, that is, more emphasis on neatness and obedience to orders.

A person must have his own thoughts, but an army must obey orders.

When Lysa discovered the den of the God of Struggle, he was ready to take this army to see blood and try the results of the training during this period.

If it is not bad, this batch of troops can be sent to Taner. As for the guarding of the den, there is nothing to worry about at present.

Now, Lysa, Olenna, and Ellie are all very powerful. With Rand's super strong control, they are not afraid of small armies or bandits.

And as long as the current training method is proven to be correct, the third batch of soldiers can be selected and trained soon.

It can be regarded as a war of attrition, but now the hideout must improve its combat effectiveness as soon as possible to hold a little initiative in the next situation change.

…

After hard investigation, the messenger of the Torch Church finally got some information, a strong man in black armor who looked like Taner, but in the fragmentary information, this strong man seemed to have gone to the Black and Brown City.

The messenger couldn't help but complain. If there was no clue, he could go back directly to report, but now he found a clue.

His professional ethics did not allow him to turn a blind eye to this clue. Now it seems that he can only go to the Black and Brown City to take a look.

Chapter 42 Return of Lysa and Rewards

Just when Rand was training the soldiers who were fully off duty in the den, Lysa suddenly appeared in the den, as if teleporting.

Even though she had not been away for too long, the den had changed a lot compared to before she set out.

Whether it was the arrangement of houses, or the roads, or the construction site of the Adventurer's Resort below the den, which Rand called it.

The construction of the Adventurer's Resort has taken shape, and many houses can already see their functions.

For example, a construction site of a brick and stone structure.

It can be seen at a glance that a bathhouse is to be built here.

Thinking of this, Lysa gently covered her mouth and curved her eyes. It seems that Rand knows how to enjoy himself.

Walking into the den from the now solemn gate, you can see many busy pedestrians coming and going.

Although many people have been transferred to various places in the Crescent Territory to serve, or simply joined Taner's mercenary team.

But many people in the den now know Lysa, so no one thinks she is an uninvited guest and comes to ask.

Ignoring the gazes of others, Lysa walked straight to the sacrificial room. In a sense, she was eager to go home.

The sacrificial room now has an office area, where Ellie and Olena work all year round.

Lysa walked lightly through the office area, and Ellie and Olena didn't even look up. This office was the administrative center of the entire Crescent Territory, and they had a lot of things to do every day.

Such light and silent steps might not be noticed by these two focused civil servants.

After passing through the office area, they entered the sacrificial room, which was Rand's residence. Rand was staring at a piece of parchment at this time. Seeing Lysa coming, his brows were happy.

"Found it?"

Lysa nodded and closed the door.

"The reward agreed." Lysa said softly.

Rand wiped his sweat, indicating that he was ready, and then took out a piece of pure black cloth.

Lysa let Rand tie her to the cross. Now the cross has changed from a sacrificial tool to a reward prop.

If a person goes blind, it's not surprising that their other senses are heightened, not because they are really heightened, but because losing one sense inevitably makes them more important.

So Rand covered Lysa's eyes with black cloth and stuffed her ears with cotton.

"How does it feel?" Rand asked. Although he had stuffed his ears with cotton, it could only block some of the sound, but it was enough.

Lysa didn't say anything, just pursed her lips.

Seeing that Lysa was very satisfied, Rand also spoke, but skillfully brushed her waist and took out the small whip from the old position behind her waist.

At this time, her body had long been very sensitive due to the loss of vision and the weakening of hearing. When she was suddenly hit by the whip, her senses were many times stronger than before.

...

Originally, Ellie and Olenna didn't want to care about what was going on in the room, but they couldn't stand them being alone, so they had to sigh, temporarily stop the work in their hands, leave the office, and walk to the main road of the hideout.

Although they already knew that Lysa might not be serious on the surface, she was essentially a pervert anyway.

But their concentration was not enough to listen to Lysa's panting and moaning while working there.

The soundproofing effect of the sacrificial room was not good, it could only be said that it was completely non-existent.

At this time, the main road of the village has been paved with gravel. According to Rand, it will be replaced with a brick road in the future, but the construction has not started yet.

However, even if it is a gravel road, it is much better than the previous muddy road. At least on rainy days, the gravel road will not be muddy and difficult to walk on.

The only drawback is that it needs to be repaired frequently, because the gravel road is too easy to be damaged.

For Ellie and Olena, two beauties with completely different clothing styles, the believers in the den have long been accustomed to them. Some of them are more cheerful and leisurely, and they will salute them.

Walking on the gravel road in the den, looking at the believers who are obviously more satisfied with their current lives, Ellie and Olena still feel very accomplished.

When they were in the White Kingdom, they did not have the opportunity to participate in government affairs in this practical way and see the results so clearly.

In fact, they did not dare to handle affairs at the beginning, fearing that it would cause bad influence, so at the beginning, they all learned Rand's style to handle the things that Rand pushed to them.

In fact, now, although they have their own understanding, they still follow Rand's standard practical style.

At present, the results seem to be quite good. There have been no problems in managing a barony with a population of more than 2,000.

It feels like everything is moving in a good direction, and they are contributing to this development.

At the beginning, they wanted to recruit Rand to become the White Kingdom's staff, but now it seems that they themselves have been recruited by Rand and have been doing their best to help him.

But it feels good.

Such achievements are completely unattainable in other places, at least not in the White Kingdom. In the White Kingdom, one of them can only play the role of a young prince and the other can only play the role of an old-fashioned teacher.

I didn't feel it when I was still in the White Kingdom, but now I think back, I only feel that the time in the White Kingdom is really boring.

Therefore, even if they were left with a black history image, Ellie and Olenna were very glad to be able to come out for this trip.

At least during this period, they lived quite happily.

The two of them just wandered outside and blew the wind for a long time.

Since it was summer, but because it was located in the north, the wind would only feel warm instead of hot.

Rand finally came out of the sacrificial room and bumped into two beauties wandering there. He immediately realized the soundproofing problem of the sacrificial room.

However, now that Lysa's character has been deeply rooted in people's hearts, Rand does not have to worry about becoming more perverted in the minds of these two.

He just coughed lightly and said, "I tortured Lysa to get information about the God of Struggle's hideout."

"Puff." Ellie couldn't help laughing when she heard Rand say torture, and then she closed her mouth restrainedly and waited for Rand to continue.

Rand was not embarrassed to be interrupted by Ellie's laughter, and continued: "The strength of the God of Struggle's hideout is stronger than expected, be prepared."

"I will supervise the pre-war preparations of the second phase of the army and command them. The affairs during this period will be left to you." When it comes to serious matters, Rand's voice also becomes serious, and he explains things meticulously.

After Rand finished speaking and left, Ellie kicked the stones on the roadside and commented in her heart: "It's pretty handsome."

Chapter 43: Attack on the den of the God of Struggle

Ellie turned over the information borrowed from her sister.

There is very little information about the Dark Plenty Goddess Cult. It can only be confirmed from their actions that this is a cult. As for the Dark Plenty Goddess they worship, there is no information at all.

In comparison, there is much more information about the God of Struggle. This is a blood-source god, and his image is mostly a wolf with three heads.

The God of Struggle Cult is mainly distributed in the North, that is, in the Northern Union. Their doctrine is to provoke, provoke quarrels, provoke fights, and provoke wars. As long as there is a dispute, they like it.

And believers with a certain status can obtain the treasure given by the God of Struggle, the Rose Red Orb, through the sacrifice ceremony.

The Rose Red Orb can turn these qualified believers into powerful monsters.

Since there are fights wherever there are people, even if the Torch Church vigorously clears them out, the God of Struggle followers are like indestructible cockroaches, still active all over the world.

At this time, on the other side, Rand hid behind fifty fully armed soldiers, ten sword and shield soldiers, twenty spearmen, and twenty archers.

The sword and shield soldiers and spearmen are quite good, but the archers are not satisfactory.

Archer training is very difficult. Such a short time is not enough to train qualified archers. Moreover, if there is not enough physical strength, the longbow will not be able to be pulled after a few times. Therefore, Rand equipped these archers with small bows.

However, the requirements for these archery novices are not high. They only need to stabilize the arrows in an area without shooting at teammates. Rand does not need them to kill accurately, but only needs firepower coverage.

The den of the God of Struggle in the Crescent Territory is very remote. Many places even have no roads. It takes a lot of effort to reach it. I don’t know how Lysa found this well-hidden den.

The only high-level combat force accompanying the army this time is Lysa. Olenna and Ellie are still working in the den, but if Rand is also considered a high-level combat force, then there are two.

At noon on the third day after departure, we finally arrived at the den of the God of Struggle.

After passing through the dense forest, there is a wide and flat area with gurgling water next to it.

Rand stood on a tree and observed the environment here. He touched his chin and felt that if the population of Crescent Territory began to increase in the future, a village could be opened here.

The land looked very fertile.

But now, we have to kill these termites first.

Rand raised the banner in his hand and shouted: "For the faith of the Mother Goddess!"

"For the faith of the Mother Goddess!" The soldiers shouted with Rand, and then started to charge directly under Rand's command.

For flat terrain, there is no such thing as blocking the road. In fact, for such a flat village, the best way to attack is a night attack.

If Rand had fifty armored knights now, they would rush over at night and kill a lot.

Unfortunately, such strength only exists in dreams.

Rand has checked that many of his villagers who have been malnourished for many years suffer from night blindness.

Moreover, in night attacks, these recruits who have not seen blood and have just undergone a period of off-duty training may not be able to distinguish between enemies and friends.

So the high-end operation of night attacks should be discussed later. Maybe when Taner returns with the mercenary group, they will be a group of veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles.

This time, Rand tried the offensive of infantry and artillery coordination, although there was no artillery.

It sounds very high-end, but in fact it is to maintain the formation of infantry, wait for the back row archers to shoot a wave of arrows, and then advance a distance.

The enemy is suppressed by the bows and arrows, unable to form a formation in time, or unable to immediately change from a defensive posture to an offensive posture. This short and important gap is the magic of this set of offensives.

Of course, this is just training. Although the number of these cultists is much larger than Rand thought, it is still within the range that these recruits can handle in actual combat training.

Unless everyone here can transform into the monster that Taran said.

As the massacre of these cultists of the God of Struggle continued, some cultists finally began to use the Rose Red Orb.

Rand looked at Lysa beside him, who immediately drew her bow and shot arrows. The enchanted emerald arrows flew through the crowd like agile fish. Every believer who tried to use the red orb would have his throat pierced by an arrow.

But soon the believers reacted and began to hide behind the cover and use their transformation abilities.

Rand frowned. Taner was not there at the moment, and there was no high place for him to stand, so he did not have a clear grasp of the situation.

Until several giant red monsters with multiple heads rushed out from the believers.

"Hold the formation!" Rand roared. These soldiers had been told before that they would encounter some inhuman monsters, and they often saw minotaur villagers during training, so although they were shocked by these monsters, they were not panicked overall.
