Outside the southern continent, the Los Santo hovered above a high altitude a hundred miles away from the east coast. Rennes sat in the bridge, his eyes slightly closed, and received synchronized information from the Thundercast Divine Weapon.

After a night of movement, the Thundercast Divine Soldiers have been scattered all over the Southern Continent.

They turned into different trolls and took action, while finding suitable tribal priests to attack, while collecting local forces.

Especially those Loa.

Soon, the Thunder-cast Divine Soldier succeeded and obtained dozens of knowledge about ancient saint runes from a tribal priest of a forest troll, as well as several pages of ancient saint manuscripts. Although most of this knowledge is repeated, it finally gained something.

Not long after, another thunder-cast divine weapon synchronized the knowledge, which increased his knowledge of ancient sage rune a little more.

Rennes did nothing all day and sat on the bridge and waited.

Not every Leicai Divine Soldier went smoothly. Some tribes had very little knowledge and were repetitive. Some tribes noticed themselves and tried to resist. Leicai Divine Soldier did not stay for a long time and left immediately when they saw the situation was gone.

Even twice, Loa was discovered and chased out of the control area of ​​the Ancient Saint Altar.

However, in general, the Thunder-cast Divine Weapon will not be in danger of life.

Even when facing the Loa warriors, they can escape unscathed.

By night, the knowledge of the ancient saint runes had increased to more than a thousand words, and the progress of the ancient saint text was faster. Renn was very satisfied. At this speed, it would take only about half a month to decipher and master the complete knowledge of the ancient saint.

The progress in the following days has become faster and faster.

As the number of ancient saint runes mastered increased, Rennes was able to roughly understand some rune arrays, but there might be some errors.

While studying the ancient saint altar and seeing if he could crack the altar to seize control, he also made the distribution of power in the Southern Continent in his mind.

As previously speculated, there are indeed eighteen ancient saint altars on the southern continent.

However, there were actually twenty-four people at the beginning!

Over the past 20,000 years, six ancient holy altars have either been completely damaged in the Loa War and can no longer operate, or suddenly failed for no reason, becoming a historical mystery.

The absence of these six ancient holy altars did not cause the barrier that blocked the entire continent to collapse. The remaining eighteen altars mobilized magic energy to cover the southern continent and maintained the barrier intact, but the strength and power of the barrier were somewhat reduced.

There are less than half of the eighteen ancient saints altars that are still running, and there are many of them that are more or less problematic.

Rennes speculates that at least twelve ancient holy altars are required to maintain the blockade.

Without external interference, with more ancient saint altars damaged, perhaps four or five thousand years later, the barrier blocking the Southern Continent will completely disappear.

It can be seen that the Loa people will not repair the ancient saint altar, and the trolls have not mastered the knowledge taught by the ancient saints.

Loa just holds the altar.

Loa is not a real god.

They were born after the Southern Continent blockade. Most of them were originally powerful creatures in the forest. They absorbed the magic energy of the Ancient Saint Altar and mutated. The body evolved, the apocalypse mind, and the soul instinct wanted to get close to the Ancient Saint Altar, master the altar, and obtain more powerful power.

During the First Age, there were only a few gods of Alan's, and almost all of them were born naturally, such as the Earth God.

Trolls have no clear understanding of gods and how to become gods.

They naturally worship powerful creatures.

So, the trolls put those extremely powerful mutant beasts onto the altar and offered their faith power, and accidentally formed a relationship similar to that of gods and believers.

Thus, Loa was born!

However, there is no divine fire in the southern continent, and the trolls and Loa do not even know the existence of the divine fire. Loa cannot transform divinity into divine power and become a real god. Loa, who controls the ancient saint altar, is already the most powerful existence in the world in the eyes of the trolls, and is their gods!

The blockade prevented the troll from leaving the Southern Continent.

Gradually, the trolls regarded this continent and forest as the whole world, and as time passed, they forgot the existence of the outside world.

Those distant historical records, everything outside the Southern Continent has become myths.

For more than 20,000 years, the Loa people have controlled the ancient saint altar and fought against each other. War is the eternal main theme of the trolls.

In this closed world, the history of "rise, expansion, conquest and destruction" is staged over and over again. The unbreakable historical cycle is restricted by the restriction of the trolls. Their civilization and wisdom have almost not made much progress from more than 20,000 years ago, and some of them have even regressed.

The fundamental reason is the ancient saint altar.

The isolated trolls do not have to face the terrible foreign enemies. Several epoch-changes and abyss invasions have not involved the Southern Continent.

In their worldview, trolls are the only intelligent race in the world.

Although the ancient saint left behind the legend of the Creator, the trolls had never seen other intelligent races, and they did not know the existence of elves, dwarves, orcs and humans. These races only appeared after the blockade of the Southern Continent.

Trolls have no motivation to develop, and Loa is mostly a group of wild beasts, and there is no concept that only these intelligent civilizations have.

Loa can only master more ancient saint altars and have more powerful power.

However, few Loa can control more than two ancient saint altars. They only have one real body, one altar, and the other may be taken advantage of by the enemy. After great hardships, they will soon be lost.

This led to the Southern Continent being in a state of separatist rule by Loa for most periods.

Without a highly unified regime, there is no foundation for development.

The Gumanla Empire was unified four times in history. The first time was when the Southern Continent was just blocked more than 20,000 years ago. The empire was inherited from the Troll Era and split after only more than 300 years of maintenance.

The three subsequent unifications were all because the great conqueror was born among the trolls.

All of these three troll leaders who recreated the empire are Loa!

Trolls can also become Loa.

This is not uncommon. There are trolls in every era, sometimes more, sometimes less. Now there are five trolls in the southern continent who are trolls. And, currently the strongest roars who control the four ancient holy altars, Kazratakin, the "God of War" is a troll!

Kazratakin is known as the "King of Loa" and the "King of Trolls".

He mastered the most important ancient saint altar in the Southern Continent. In the capital of the Gumanla Empire, "Yintaza", called the City of Gold, it is located in the center of the hinterland of the Southern Continent. The City of Gold and the three ancient saint altars around it, hundreds of tribes, and more than 10 million trolls are the people of Kazratakin.

The King of Loa wants to follow the example of the three troll kings in history, wanting to unify the Southern Continent and recreate the glory of the Gumanla Empire.

However, Renne is not optimistic.

Because according to historical records, the three troll kings did not end up well, and the empire they created did not last long, and the longest dynasty was only less than two hundred years.

The reason for the collapse of the empire was the same, the supreme ruler was killed.

The characteristics of the ancient saint altar determine that without Loa can control all the altars, no matter how many troll guards are stationed, there will always be enemies who can steal control of the altar. One Loa has multiple altars, which only expands its territory and can obtain energy support from the altar on a larger scale, covers more believers and has stronger divinity, but will not have a qualitative improvement in power.

As long as a hostile Loa masters the Ancient Saint Altar, there is a chance to defeat the Troll King.

What's more, in history, the three troll kings were unable to destroy all other Loa, but they only ruled all the trolls at the tribal level.

Other trolls want to be Loa too.

In short, the troll Loa may be able to conquer the country, but it will definitely not be able to defend it.

The previous life said that "the world's general trend will be divided after a long time of unity, and long time of division will be combined" does not apply to the Southern Continent. The separatist rule of Loa is the norm in the Southern Continent.

Now on the Southern Continent, in addition to the war god Kazratakin, there are several Loa who are slightly worse in power.

The "God of Blood" Sotigo, its original body is a feathered snake; the "God of Courage" Huang Qi, he is also a troll Loa; the "God of Witchcraft" Jazrela, its image is a multi-headed snake lizard; the "God of Storm" Aquidara, this Loa is an eagle.

The rest of Loa's strength was weaker.

The God of Night Sirik, whose strength ranks downstream among many Loa, is probably the top five last.

Of course, Cyric is not the weakest Loa. There are many powerful creatures in the vast forests of the Southern Continent who control the ancient saint altar. They are also Loa, but their strength level is lower.

"All of them are demigods..."

Rennes sat on the captain's throne, his fingers flexibly clasped the handrail, and his face was meditating.

Among the historical information collected by Lei Zhu Divine Soldier, there is a very important key point: the control of the ancient saint altar can be seized!

The premise is that Loa left the altar range he had mastered.

There is no need to kill Loa, nor does it require Loa to lift the control, as long as the opponent is not within the control range of the altar.

In this way, the difficulty will be much lower.

Renn's thinking became active. His primary goal of entering the Southern Continent was to collect knowledge of ancient sages. This goal should not be problematic and could be completed in a few days. The next step is to decipher the ancient sage runes, and it is time to try to control the ancient sage altar.

The Southern Continent is a huge treasure!

There is no need to say much about natural resources, gold, mines and countless treasures, but in Rennes' eyes, the most important resource is population.

After sorting out the information collected in the past few days, we can roughly estimate that the total number of trolls in the Southern Continent is more than 90 million, and it is very likely to be over 100 million!

One hundred million trolls are all intelligent races!

Such a huge population size, if managed well, can it still produce a population growth of two or three times. How much labor force can it produce?

Population is wealth!

The most important thing is that these 100 million trolls can also contribute huge power of faith!

The Southern Continent is in war for many years, and Loa fights endlessly, and the winners change every once in a while, which makes trolls frequently convert their beliefs. The middle and lower trolls will not have much resistance to changing their beliefs, and it is easy to accept the new gods.

This means that more than 100 million trolls are potential believers. As long as they are given certain benefits, there will be almost no resistance to preaching in the Southern Continent.

If the gods knew about this situation, they would probably go crazy!

Rennes was also heartbroken.

I am not a god, but San Gilles can do it!

More than ten years ago, San Gilles was preparing to be appointed as a god and had been secretly preaching in the New World. Now, all members of the Knights of the Holy Spike are believers of the Lord of Glory, but with those more than 10,000 faiths, the power of faith provided is too little.
