Li Cheng’s eyes lit up when he heard Asilia’s words.
He silently gave her a thumbs up in his heart.

Of course, he knew that he was asking for too much.
He had been waiting for Vic and the two bishops to bargain with him, but he did not expect that Asilia would be that decisive to agree to his ask.

Since Asilia had spoken, he was not someone who did not know what was good for him.
He then said with hesitation, “Alright, five hundred thousand then.
It really can’t be any less.

“Although it’s less than I expected, I’m still an Earl of the church.
I can only do my best to protect the church’s reputation.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone’s veins were exposed and their teeth were chattering, everyone except Asilia of course.

‘500,000? You think that’s too little? Where can you find such a good thing?’

If it was not for the fact that they had something to ask of Li Cheng, the commanders present would have gone berserk.
They could still do it now, and it was all because they were well-rested.

Giving Li Cheng 500,000 Holy Light Priests had directly emptied their pockets and their hearts were dripping with blood.

However, since they had already offered to help, Vic and the two archbishops were too embarrassed to go back on their words.
Who asked the Saintess to speak up?

Commander Vic sighed and said, “Alright, Earl Netherworld, I hope you treat these priests well.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Cheng heard the system notification.

“Ding, dong, five hundred thousand Holy Light Priests have joined your territory!”

Li Cheng nodded in satisfaction.
The abilities of these young priests were very abnormal.
These 500,000 could heal an army that was 10 times stronger.

Since he had received the benefits, Li Cheng then returned to the main topic.
He tapped his fingers lightly on the table as he asked, “How many refugees are there?”

Vic thought for a moment and said, “There are at least two billion refugees that need to take refuge in your territory.”

Hearing this, Li Cheng’s eyelids twitched.
It seemed that many towns and villages had given up on defending themselves.
All units on the continent were approaching the main city.
No wonder the City of Light could not accommodate them.

The number of refugees in the City of Light was probably hundreds of times more than that.
The situation was not optimistic.

“Ding, dong, Commander Vic has given you an emergency SSS-class mission, People in Disaster.
Do you accept?”

“Yes,” Li Cheng said.

“Ding, dong, you’ve successfully received the SSS-class mission, People in Disaster.

“Hint: during the mission period, you must provide food for the refugees.
Correspondingly, the refugees will also participate in the defense of your territory!”

As the system’s voice fell, Li Cheng opened the mission list and looked at the mission information.

[People in Disaster (SSS)]

[Mission description: the largest monster siege in the past thousand years is about to arrive.
Commander Vic requests your help to take in some refugees.
He has promised to send 500,000 Holy Light Priests to your territory.]

[Quest Nature: only hidden]

[Quest difficulty: 0]

[Quest content: protect the refugees as much as possible]

[Quest reward: gold coins, contribution points, reputation points]

[Hint: you do not need to guarantee the safety of the refugees.]

Looking at the detailed quest information, Li Cheng was a little dumbfounded.
The quest difficulty was actually zero? There was such a good thing?

One had to know that there were no civilians in Tribe.
In other words, these refugees were all combat units.
What was even more ridiculous was that Li Cheng had to provide them with food, and he did not need to be responsible for their safety.
They were like his workers!

If Li Cheng was ruthless, he could even send them all to their deaths!

Of course, most of the soldiers were trash and did not have much combat power.
However, Li Cheng only had to pay with food to receive 500,000 priests.
It could be said that he had made a fortune.

“Wait!” At this moment, a regiment commander spoke.

This regiment commander narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Li Cheng.
“I apologize if I’m offending you, but I really doubt that Earl Netherworld can defend himself!”

As the regiment commander’s words fell, the atmosphere in the meeting room became quiet.
Everyone stared at Li Cheng.

Many of them had doubts about Li Cheng’s strength, and their leader had spoken up.

Li Cheng had become a Lord for less than seven days.
How strong could he be?

Hearing this, Asilia’s face darkened.
She wanted to say something, but Li Cheng stopped her with a look.
He looked at the leader and said, “Although my territory is only level forty and I only have a few hundred thousand soldiers, but…

“I have one hundred thousand Legendary-grade defense towers now.
I have one million Legendary-grade defense facilities, as well as the highest level magic traps, though I have a little too few of those as I only made a few hundred million…”

Although Li Cheng’s tone was very calm, everyone felt their scalps go numb when they heard these words.
Cold sweat kept pouring out of their foreheads.

100,000 Legendary defense towers?!

1,000,000 Legendary special defense facilities?!

‘Are you kidding me?’

Putting everything else aside, just how much energy did 1,000,000 Legendary defense facilities need to be activated at the same time?

With just a simple calculation, everyone forcefully gulped.
This was too ridiculous, completely impossible.

However, they had no choice but to believe it.
This kind of information could be seen with just a glance.
Li Cheng had no need to lie at all.
In fact, he could not lie about it.

Therefore, other than Vic, the two bishops, and Asilia, everyone was in a mess.
The leader, who was being stared at by Li Cheng, lowered his head.
He wished he could find a hole to hide in.
He did not dare to look Li Cheng in the eye.

His heart was filled with regret.
What kind of monster did he offend? Was it too late to take the medicine of regret? He simply waited for the moment to pass.

The next topic on the agenda was mainly about the defense of the City of Light.
Naturally, Li Cheng was not interested, so he got up and left.

There was not much to talk about regarding the defense of the City of Light.
The housing problem was also quickly resolved.

Just as the meeting was about to end, a regiment commander suddenly said, “Regiment commander, is there really no problem with Earl Netherworld?

“Why do I feel that he isn’t a devout believer…”

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire meeting room fell silent once again….
