Swamp Lord with an Intelligence System - Chapter 653 - 277: Rapid Growth, Ten Thousand Followers, Seizing the Initiative

Chapter 653: Chapter 277: Rapid Growth, Ten Thousand Followers, Seizing the Initiative

In a competitive relationship, being a step slower can mean missing the initial opportunity and falling into a passive position.

His greatest advantage lies in having a stable start, already entering a phase of rapid development, and knowing about the existence of these Evil Gods.

Due to being restricted from descending himself, and the blocking of beings above Level 15, even genuine Divine Spirits find it difficult to control the situation on the Original Plane in the short term.

This provides him with a great deal of operating space.

Now it’s a racing game: whoever develops first and controls more temples will take the lead and squeeze out other competitors.

For this reason, Lear began to deploy his forces within his territory, leaving only five Swamp Boggarts to guard Weilu City, responsible for daily preaching and controlling the Demon Legion of the Master of Heart Eating.

The other twenty-five Swamp Boggarts were all dispatched to the Original Plane.

Five squadrons of Bubble Beasts were dispatched in, and more than three squadrons of Vine Fairies…he almost brought all his elite forces.

After replenishing personnel, Lear divided the missionary team into five groups, each group consisting of five Swamp Boggarts, guarded by a squadron of Cold-blooded Cavalry and Dark Night Hunter.

And the villagers who were healed in recent days spontaneously became the support point of preaching, allowing the plan to advance smoothly.

After investigation, Lear identified the specific locations of over two hundred villages and drew a sketch.

Moreover, the entire mountain range has twenty temples.

Accounting for 2% of the thousand temples in the Original Plane.

If he can take control of the Long Thorn Mountain Range ahead of others, devour this piece of fat growing in the mountains, then he will hold the initiative in this battle for domination.

Whether advancing or retreating, there will be choices.

Settling his mind, he patiently gnawed away at the surrounding territories bit by bit.

The area covered by the Swamp Sect on the map also expanded day by day.

And through repeated real battles, the missionary activities of the Swamp Boggarts became more proficient, combined with the unique affinity of these beings, they were almost invincible.

Lear also tried to let the Swamp Boggarts directly enslave the villagers.

However, the effect was very poor, as the souls of Ancient Humans were strong and extremely resistant to this evil act of enslavement, making it difficult to achieve good results.

They often struggle free in an instant and then instinctively run towards the temple.

Once, they almost activated the temple’s defenses, forcing out the Holy Light Angels… Once such ultimate creatures appear, the possibility of obtaining the temple would approach zero.

After trying, Lear realized that a steady approach was indeed the fastest way. At that moment, he stopped being impatient and focused on expanding steadily.

Along the way, he also continued to send followers to various villages in the Long Thorn Mountain Range, spreading various messages about Katana.

The gimmick of free disease curing was almost invincible.

Time flew by, and thus another week passed. On April 13th, the missionary work finally reached its peak… the number of followers in the Long Thorn Mountain Range historically broke through the ten-thousand mark.

And he also accumulated 200,000 Power of Faith… finally able to take control of the temple and recruit Angels.

Lear’s gaze turned to the inconspicuous temple, and he strode towards it.

The power of Angels, these ultimate creatures, he had heard countless times on the Main Plane.

They are almost indispensable characters in all mythologies, symbolizing the majesty of Divine Spirits, representing strength, fairness, justice, and mercy…

Almost all beautiful words could be used to describe these beings.

He never thought there would come a day when he could personally recruit one.
