Enjoy!
Chapter 75 I swear...
Three months later. Sword bird City
On top of the cities walls massive amounts of soldiers were stationed staring into the distance and waiting for something to happen. Sword bird city was the city that the Bluedragon sisters Les and Zoe, who were responsive for the military had predicted to be attacked first. Because of this big parts of their troops had been moved to the city to hold of the nearing fanatics.
At the same time Les and Zoe were also in the city coordinating the construction of the defenses as well as reis who was constantly making new formations that added to the normal walls and towers of the city wall. She had learned how to make formations after she was resurrected by Zes. As she woke up that time somehow there was complete knowledge about formations and their set up in her mind. Of course she wasn't as proficient as Zes and formations like the Bluedragon formation guarding Bluedragon city were still quite a distance away from her capabilities. But compared to other 'masters' of formations she could already be considered one. In fact she was only a step from the grandmaster realm.
Either way Reis was constantly building up a defense line of hundreds of formations overlapping and reinforcing each other. Of course she also used the method Zes used, using qi to directly form the formations. It was harden then just carving them into the walls, but it allowed her to add multiple layers and as long as she concentrated enough she could bring out much greater results. Furthermore formations carved on walls could be easily destroyed as long as even one defect was on them. So if the enemy was able to send a spy to them and this spy would somehow even lightly damage the walls, the formations would already stop their function.
So to be safe Reis was constantly straining her mind to form all the formations with her qi. Now a blue shining dome had already formed around the city and occasionally the light of a formation flashed in the sun.
But even with the formation they did not dare to slack of and more and more walls were build outside and inside the city. Formations were carved on very single one making them more durable and even on the houses there were massive amounts of formations. Some defensive, some offensive traps and also formations that would cause the whole house to explode in a ball of fire.
Slowly the whole city was turning into a a real fortress.
But Sword bird city was not the only city that was modification. Literally every city in the kingdom was building new walls and defensives and the disciples of the Heavenly formations school, a school Reis set up to teach others how to create formations, were busy creating hundreds of formations on every stone they saw.
Even in villages there were walls build and reinforced by formations. Every major street was covered in traps and formations ready to be activated on any time.
The whole country was a huge net of formations and traps. In fact if any 'normal' kingdom would even take a step into their territory they would already blow up in a mere second.
But even with all this measures they could not really feel secured. This was because their enemies were complete freaks! fanatics that were ready to throw away their lives for their gods. Crazed demons that only want to kill every human in sight and then go on hunting them down to the last man.
And at that, this were not a few thousands we are speaking about. If it was only to much they would not even get over the walls of Sword bird city and Reis and the rest could spare all the effort on making the whole kingdom, every centimeter of space a deathly trap for any invader. But they were making all this effort because it was not some thousands of fanatics coming towards them. It were not millions, it were 50 whooping million demons coming in a craze to take their lives.
In comparison, the whole kingdom had only about 70 million citizens and this was including the children and elder that were unable to fight. If you further take the amount of woman into account then it was even more disturbing.
Most of you are certainly wondering, how it can be that there are so many humans after so short time again? After all at least half of the citizens were humans! This was because after Zes madly slaughtering every deity in the realm. Most of the kingdoms could guess just who it was that had just crazily killed a few thousand of their strongest kins. They immediately gathered all the surviving humans and send them over to the former Cers kingdom so as to avoid any further trouble with them.
In the end there were about 5 million humans left in the realm that were now all focused in their kingdom. But well 5 million is still way of from the current 20 million right?
The sudden increase of humans is, because of the formations Zes set up in Bluedragon city. Not only was it increasing the density of qi, it was also increasing the speed of time. In fact 10 year inside of the city was equivalent to 1 years outside of it. So Reis just brought all the humans to Bluedragon city and as humans are quite good at reproduction, especially while being tempted by the custom of lewd clothes for woman. In the 30 years that passed inside of the city they managed to rise their population to 20 million humans.
As every humans was also cultivating and the density of qi inside the city was also insanely high, they quickly reached quite the high cultivation stages adding to their lifespan. In fact the average cultivation of humans was already no less then the one of demons. And amongst the 10 deities that were currently in the kingdom adding to Reis, Les, Zoe and Pinia, 5 were humans while the other five were demons.

So in the current kingdom, the ratio of humans to demons was almost exactly 1:1.
But back to the problem. The fanatics that called themselves Church of Demons had 50 million soldiers that would fight, while the kingdom would at most bring up 30 million. So in therms of quantity they were way behind the Church of Demons. In therms of quality the kingdom was a bit better then the Church as they had their formations that increased their cultivation speed, while the troops of the church were mostly made of dissatisfied demons that already reached the limit of their cultivation and vended their anger on humans.
But there was still quite a few demons inside the church that were actually powerful, not to mention the three 'gods' of the church whom no one knew the exact cultivation stage.
All this made Reis and the others extremely cautions. After all there was nothing more dangerous then some crazed fanatics that would give up anything for their goals.
Reis looked into the distance tension on her beautiful face. The reports were saying that the church should arrive in a few hours together with 50 million man strong army. Of course she was nervous and tensed. This was her first war and her first experience of leading millions against millions. Furthermore they were at disadvantage. How could she not feel the pressure?
Suddenly she heard a explosion a few miles away. It was one of the formation set up before the city to explode upon contact. There were thousands of such formations before the city. Hundreds of Heavenly Formation School disciples had spend months to cover any rock, and corn of dust with formations and even though they could not measure up to herself, they were still pretty decent in comparison to other formation schools.
Now one explosion followed enough and dust indicated from where the explosions came. Soon the whole horizon in front of Reis was covered in dust. The sound of explosions as frequent as the bullets of a machine gun. Reis eyes grew sharp. She knew that it would be a huge force, but the scene before her eyes still managed to instill her with fear.
A endless flood of white clothes soldiers was marching forwards not even caring for their comrades that were blown up a few meters away. Their armours shined in the sun and the sound of their steps was even audible in midst of all the explosions.
It was not only Reis that was instilled with fear seeing this overwhelming flood of bodies. The soldiers on the walls also became nervous, a wavering expression on their faces. Some were only a step from letting their blades fall onto the ground while others started to tremble out of fear. A young man, a demons that had voluntary gone into the army was just about to throw away his sword and armor and run as suddenly a voice echoed through the whole city.
At first it was only a few but in mere moments it became more and more.
"Fight for your home, fight for your family, fight for you revenge. FIGHT FOR LORD ZES!"
"For Lords Zes."
"FIGHT!!!"
"FOR OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS."
"FOR OUR FAMILIES."
"FOR THE KINGDOM."
The voices became loader and loader as more and more soldiers began to chant to. Their voices combined and filled the whole city and soon the whole city was chanting the words.
One was fighting for his family. The other one for the country he loves. Another for the love of his life. For his future. His believes.
Some wanted revenge for their ancestors that were slaughtered by this kind of people. Others wanted the blood of those that wanted to challenge their kingdom. The land that feed them that made them what they are now.
All this desires, all thus voices combined and shook the heaven with their might. This was no empty chanting like the one of the church. This is not just the repeating of words. They all had their own words, their own opinions, their own desires. It was the combination of thus that made this chant strong. That gave it power. It was this what will give them the strength to fight.
Suddenly a single voice rang out of the ocean of voices. A simple and unrefined voice, nothing that would normally be noticed by anyone. But in this moment, in midst of all the voices, the chanting. Everyone was hearing it.
"Good damit. Even if I die,who care? I have lived my life and I don't regret a thing. I will fight, I will kill as many as possible and if I die, then I will stand up and kill more. This is my land, the land I love, the land I grew up in.
I swear to the heavenly daos. As long as there is a single enemy standing before me I will not die. And even if I die I will stand up once again and kill more until there is no one left before me!"
This simple speech, the simple oat of a single man. It caused something incredible.
"I, Renwald swear to to the heavenly daos to not die before the last member of the Demons church is death in front of me!"
"I Wern swear to the heavenly daos that I will kill every man before me and not die before there is no one left to kill."
"I Zouls…
"I Jeanus…
"I swear….
"…. to the heavenly daos…."
More and more voices started to give oats to the heavenly daos and as they did so suddenly the heaven started to change. The clouds turned purpure while the heaven it self turned golden. Invisible treats of gold were raining down onto the city and who ever they touched, this person instantly felt a strange strength inside of them.
They knew that as long as there was a single enemy standing before them, they would never die.
