On both sides of the road, tents were everywhere, with the military maintaining order, and watchtowers and bunkers could be seen everywhere.

Beside the tents, countless children excitedly ran back and forth, watching the cars passing by on the highway from afar, their expressions innocent and curious.

Li Wenwu saw Chen Shouyi looking towards the distant refugee camp and couldn't help but ask, "Have these people already broken free from faith? Did you discover anything?"

Chen Shouyi glanced around and withdrew his gaze, shaking his head, "No!"

Li Wenwu glanced at him, held back for a while, but finally couldn't resist asking:

"Can you tell from just one look?"

It's only about a hundred thousand people.

Chen Shouyi thought to himself.

Even without looking, he could sense it just by instinct.

Chen Shouyi had no intention of answering such childish questions like 'what is one plus one', so he changed the topic and asked, "Is the food provided by multinational forces?"

"Partly, that's our temporary solution. If we don't provide food, they will flee elsewhere, making management impossible. Yan State's infrastructure is too poor."

After Li Wenwu finished speaking, he hesitated and persisted in asking, "You still haven't answered?"

Without an answer, he felt like a cat scratching at his heart.

"It can!" Chen Shouyi, feeling helpless, had to answer.

Li Wenwu was finally satisfied, and became more silent.

Why is there such a big difference between people?

...

The jeep passed through a heavily guarded checkpoint.

Soon, it entered the small town where the command center was located. Inside, everything was in ruins; bullet marks remained on the walls, the ground was piled with garbage, and a gust of wind blew, kicking up a cloud of dust.

A considerable number of Yan State people also lived here, moving back and forth under soldier patrols.

With Chen Shouyi's arrival, the Great Xia war multinational forces command center dared not neglect, almost mobilizing everyone.

"General Manager Chen, welcome, welcome!"

"Your Excellency God Chen, it's great that you could come."

Even a few officers from the European Union and Lucy Country greeted him enthusiastically in this broken Chinese they had just learned, filled with reverence.

A person's name casts a shadow. Such a Godslaying Level powerhouse is simply a humanoid nuclear weapon.

One strike could probably kill everyone.

Chen Shouyi smiled, shook hands one by one with several people: "You're too polite."

After brief pleasantries, the group quickly moved to the conference room.

"That Void Demon you mentioned, I casually killed a few on my way here. How many of them are there?" Chen Shouyi said directly, having no interest in staying in Yan State longer than necessary, wanting to resolve matters quickly and return.

A translator immediately translated it into English.

Commander Zhang Huaihe looked at Li Wenwu, and seeing him nod, his heart sank. He quickly asked, "General Manager Chen... where did you find them?"

The origin of Void Demons has always been a mystery; they come without a trace and act like the wind.

They've always been attacked but never actively searched.

Furthermore, their semi-illusory bodies greatly reduce the damage from bullets, unless continuously hit by high-explosive machine gunfire, or simply using artillery, explosives, and flamethrowers. Ordinary bullets hardly affect them.

Since the appearance of Void Demons, the war situation has become a stalemate.

"You still don't know?" Chen Shouyi asked in surprise.

Everyone's faces became a bit awkward.

Li Wenwu smiled wryly and quickly mediated, "Void Demons were discovered by Chen Shouyi in a tribe near the forest. Unlike our guess, Void Demons are not creatures from another world. They are transformed humans and do not only appear at night; they can transform during the day as well."

The crowd couldn't bother with embarrassment any longer, exchanged glances, and saw the seriousness on each other's faces.

This complicates things.

Yan State is Earth's second-largest continent with an area of 30.2 million square kilometers, larger than three Great Xia Countries combined.

In order to quickly reclaim the entire Yan State from the Lord of Lightning, weaken the Lord of Lightning's next offensive power, and given the military's shortage, multinational forces mainly control the densely populated cities and surrounding areas. They hardly manage the vast rural areas.

Planning to gradually eliminate faith after conquering the whole Yan State.

If it were a human war, this approach wouldn't be wrong. As long as the main cities are controlled, the main resistance is lost. Although guerrilla warfare and terrorist attacks cause certain troubles, they won't affect the big picture in front of truly elite multinational forces.

Unfortunately, the opponent this time is the Barbarian God, and it is a Barbarian God with powerful divine power slowly awakening from slumber.

The large number of remaining followers in the rear is an extension of His power.

...

Ten minutes later.

Chen Shouyi left the command center, guided by an orderly, arriving at his temporary accommodation.

This was considered the best hotel in the small town, consisting of several three-story small buildings, with the courtyard filled with various tropical plants, exuding an exotic atmosphere.

Of course, the army had requisitioned it by now.

"Are the residents here wounded?" Chen Shouyi asked, seeing several people in hospital gowns walking around.

The female orderly, constantly on edge due to Chen Shouyi's silence, quickly replied, "These people are recovering senior officers, but the building you are to stay in has been specially vacated."

Chen Shouyi nodded.

This was probably privilege, which he had grown accustomed to, and didn't say much or refuse. This has always been the case throughout history and across countries.

...

Chen Shouyi closed the door.

Two little ones peeked out from his chest, alertly surveying the surroundings, then eagerly jumped out.

"It's so hot, so giant, Little One is going to be cooked." The Shell Lady, blushing, blew air with her little mouth, looking silly and cute.

"I'm hot too." The Red Little One nodded.

Coming from Zhonghai's minus twenty to thirty degrees to Yan State's forty to fifty degrees, coupled with being stifled in his arms all the time, it's no wonder they were hot.

"I'll give you a bath later," Chen Shouyi said.

"Yay, yay!"

After saying this, the two little ones started undressing, quickly stripping down to nothing, sleek and smooth.

When first encountered, Little One was even skinnier, but now with half a year of carefree living, she had improved greatly.

Truly two shameless little things.

Chen Shouyi glanced at them, withdrew his gaze, went to the bathroom, and prepared a basin of water.

The two little ones quickly jumped into the basin, playing and splashing, causing water droplets to fly everywhere.

Chen Shouyi couldn't be bothered with them, opened the curtains, and looked outside.

The Domain of Faith of the Lord of Lightning here wasn't completely eradicated; it appeared patchy, some parts thin, others dense, each dense area representing a large gathering of His followers, rooted like a stubborn disease.

In this rear area, the human army hadn't cleaned it thoroughly, not even a third cleared.
