Kyle, the Tier 9 Gnome Lord answered, "My Lord, the purpose of capturing them was to investigate the information of those other-worlders."
Haru asked, "How did you know about the other-worlders?" It was not just the Gnomes. Even the Two-Headed Demon knew that the Castle Lords came from another world.
Kyle answered, "A while ago, there was a voice in our minds that told us that there were creatures from another world coming to the Endless Continent! If we kill the creatures of the other world and destroy their castle, we will receive rewards from the mysterious power!"
Haru took a deep breath. He didn't know where this 'voice' came from, or which terrifying existence it came from. However, he finally understood why the local forces and wild monsters would attack Castle Lords so actively.
Haru: "Who is the owner of the voice?"
Kyle: "We don't know!"
Haru frowned and then changed the topic. "What is the population of the Gnome Kingdom, and how large is their army?"
"My Lord, there are over a million Gnomes in the entire Dark Forest! The core population of the kingdom is around 150,000. There are three divisions, each consisting of five thousand Gnome Warriors." Kyle's report was quite detailed. He was not a soldier; he was one of the palace guards of the Gnome Kingdom. His duty was to protect the king and the palace.
Because of his identity, the Saint Tier Gnome Elder found him and sent him to lead a team of Gnomes to participate in this mission. As someone close to the center of the Gnome Kingdom, Kyle knew a lot about the Gnome Kingdom, including the number of King Tier powerhouses, the size of the kingdom's army, and the defense arrangements of the kingdom. He understood these secrets quite well.
Haru looked at him. "What's your name?"
Kyle replied respectfully, "My Lord, my name is Kyle, one of the court guards of the Gnome King! My father is the commander of the 3rd division of the kingdom's army, a late-stage King Tier powerhouse, and my mother is…"
Haru waved his hand. Seeing this, Kyle immediately shut his mouth.
"Kyle, I have a mission for you! Return to the Gnome Kingdom and report to the Gnome King about my castle. Just tell him the truth. My castle has two King Tier warriors and many Tier 9 warriors. Do you understand?"
"Understood! My Lord, don't worry, I guarantee to complete the mission!" Kyle immediately accepted the order. He didn't know why the Almighty did this, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions and just decided to complete the mission.
"Your team members will stay here. Tell them that you were in danger and you managed to return alone. Be careful, don't reveal the secret that you are my follower."
"Yes, my Lord!" Soon, Kyle left Angel Castle on his own. He was ruthless. To act more realistically, he found a broken sword and stabbed himself a few times. The armor on his body was also cut into pieces. Finally, Kyle, who had a painful expression on his face, went to the entrance of the underground safe passage.
Haru was not worried that Kyle would expose him. He had already told him what to do. Besides, as long as Kyle wasn't stupid enough to mention 'the Almighty Lord' in front of the other Gnomes, or pray in public, he wouldn't be discovered. After all, faith was hidden deep in the soul. Only at certain times would the power of faith emerge and condense into the light of faith that would be seen by others.
"As for you guys…" Haru looked at the 20 or so Gnomes Kingdoms who were still kneeling in front of him. After a moment of silence, he said to the Eveline, "Kill them!"
"Yes, my Lord!" Eveline did not hesitate and made her move. The Gnomes were first stunned, and then obediently lowered their heads and waited for death to arrive. Soon, all the Gnomes were killed by Eveline. Even their corpses were purified by her with a cloud of divine angelic holy flames. Only their souls floated towards the Holy Temple. Haru took out these souls and used the Angel Reincarnation Pool to turn them into Light Faction troops at the cost of consuming Power Stones.
"Praise you, Almighty Lord!" After the reincarnation, the Gnomes knelt in front of Haru. They were reborn. They were no longer the Gnomes of Chaos faction, but the Holy Gnomes. They were the Holy Sacrifice, Holy Warrior, and Holy Hunter created by the Lord!
Haru said, "Go, head to the forest battlefield, meet up with the Legion of Light, and hunt wild monsters with them!"
"Yes, my Lord!" The Holy Gnomes left the castle in a hurry.
Eveline said respectfully, "My Lord, when Kyle sends the news to the Gnome Kingdom, the Gnome Kingdom will probably send an army to attack Angel Castle! Do we need to take precautions?"
"You guys should focus on increasing your strength!" Haru smiled and said, "As for defense of the castle, don't worry, we have Astral City!" Eveline's eyes suddenly shone brightly. Yeah! They had Astral City!
Haru looked at the magic map in his hand, focusing on the location of the forces marked on it. These local forces and monster forces were things he had to eliminate when he ruled the Dark Forest.
"There's an Elf Tribe? And it doesn't seem to be far from my Angel Castle. It's only a hundred kilometers away." Haru's eyes glowed slightly. After all, these were not Elf warriors recruited by the Castle Lords but native Nature Elves of the Endless Continent. They were very attractive to him and he wanted to subdue them.
