When Mu Hua and Philemon first met the Lord of the Courtyard, the battle ended inconclusively with neither of them killing the other.
Philemon stopped because it was difficult to kill Mu Hua for the time being, while Mu Hua was worried about the consumption of the Purgatory Arms.
Killing Philemon once would not have much impact on the situation, and what Mu Hua was most worried about was Philemon's revenge attack on his subordinates when his magic power was insufficient.
Now Tabitha, Monday and Tuesday are all able to stand on their own, but Philemon is too aggressive. If Philemon attacks them deliberately, they will not be able to escape unscathed for the time being.
If Philemon is pushed too hard, regardless of whether Mu Hua needs to stay in Bloody Hill all the time, the tension in Bloody Hill will inevitably increase significantly, and the possible losses of each of his own regiments will be difficult to predict.
Mu Hua and Philemon both felt that they could kill each other, but as a man and a demon, they were not that arrogant, and they both estimated the outcome of the duel to be fifty-fifty.
If it is difficult to increase the probability of crushing the opponent by improving oneself for the time being, then strengthening the subordinates becomes a top priority.
Mu Hua is thinking about obtaining the power of destruction, but Philemon does not believe that Mu Hua can obtain the power of destruction in a short period of time.
Philemon believed that he had the upper hand, and that the magic scroll created with the power of destruction could quickly and significantly increase the combat power of his monsters.
At this stage, the happiest people under Mu Hua's command are the headless knights running around in the bloody hills.
Essentially speaking, Philemon didn't take the headless knights seriously. It was just that the headless knights were too scattered, and it would be a headache for him to kill them one by one.
But as long as he could get more magic scrolls and distribute them to his demons, those headless knights would be easier to annihilate if they were dispersed.
Mu Hua also thought that he had every advantage. Not to mention the possibility that he might get a skill stone of destructive power one day, just in terms of helping his subordinates improve their combat effectiveness, his ability was far beyond Philemon's reach.
If Philemon gave him time to rest, he would be courting death. He would turn around and produce more powerful individuals to further improve the individual combat power under his command. Even if he did not have the power of destruction, a hard push would leave Philemon with no place to breathe.
It’s hard to say whether both sides felt that they were pretty awesome, but both sides felt that the other side was doomed!
Neither the man nor the demon had any good intentions, but they hit it off and decided not to fight for now!!!
Mu Hua withdrew the skeleton undead from the attack sequence and stopped the headless knight from wreaking havoc everywhere, but the underground of the Bloody Hills was not within the control range, so the skeleton undead had to dig as usual.
Regarding the issue of the spider demons under Camene ambushing underground and stealing the dropped items, Philemon did not make too many concessions. His excuse was that his ability to control Camene was limited, and it was obvious to all.
It was for this reason that Philemon promised not to get involved in the fight between Mu Hua and Jia Mene, which prohibited Philemon from openly intervening in the fight between Mu Hua and Jia Mene.
Philemon imposed restrictions on Mu Hua. What he mainly disliked was that Mu Hua placed skeletons and undead randomly.
But because the ghosts on Mu Hua's side are rather special, as long as their pleasure intake is guaranteed, the emotional energy they generate is not much different from that of humans.
Therefore, Philemon had no reason to restrict Mu Hua from releasing corpses and ghosts onto the Bloody Hills.
Mu Hua's restrictions on Philemon are to prohibit monsters from invading the Death Canyon, and the area south of the Bloody Hills is designated as a human-occupied area recognized by the demons.
Originally, Philemon proposed to set up a safe zone for Mu Hua in the Bloody Hills, and let Mu Hua move all the skeletons and undead into the Death Canyon.
However, the skeleton undead released by Mu Hua did not spread deathly pollution, and he had already climbed up the Bloody Hills. With the sponsorship of the Adventurer's Guild, he could just set up some more sacrificial arrays in the safe zone.
The skeleton undead Mu Hua wants to deploy defenses in the Bloody Hills. Since Philemon keeps saying that he can't restrain Jamune, then he shouldn't talk about the safe zone in the Bloody Hills. Philemon can hardly refute this.
Under the premise that neither a human nor a demon can kill the other, well, both humans and demons are still very reasonable.
Both sides had their own little thoughts. At the same time, since Mu Hua was restricted from releasing skeleton undead on the Bloody Hill, Mu Hua also asked Philemon to release more monsters in their real form into the courtyard.
After all, if we don't use the undead, we will naturally have to increase the investment in the combat power of living creatures. Human development and reproduction are inseparable from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. Monsters, especially monsters, are also a kind of survival resource.
Unlike orcs, most Warcraft are also more resistant to demons, just like the attitude of wild beasts in the human world towards humans. It’s not that they cannot be tamed, but it’s impossible to just scare them and they will come to you.
Magic beasts are also a major food source for demons. Philemon would regularly release magic beasts into the courtyard, and he did not object to Mu Hua's request to increase the release rate.
Mu Hua blocked the Bloody Hills line. He would probably release some less aggressive monsters into the human-occupied area to enrich the resources and environment of the humans in the courtyard. Philemon did not object to this.
It has to be said that in Philemon's eyes, Mu Hua and his people are no longer classified as human beings. They are enemies.
The humans in the front half of the courtyard he mentioned were ants, and to some extent, they were even regarded by him as free-range farmed creatures.
Mu Hua and Philemon stopped fighting, and the Bloody Hill blockade returned to a relatively calm state. Both sides knew that the other side could tear up the agreement at any time, but there shouldn't be too many problems in the short term.
As for releasing monsters into the courtyard, it is basically the same as feeding them into a nature reserve, which is not too difficult for Philemon.
Philemon left followers in hell. Like Mu Hua, he can also call and send back his followers in the courtyard. This kind of calling and sending back is for the original body and does not require sacrifices.
Summon the followers to the courtyard, ask them to drive out and capture some monsters in hell, and then randomly drop them into the courtyard through the descending magic circle.
Without projection, there is naturally no need for sacrifice. This kind of projection on the monsters is actually the same as exiling them to other worlds.
At most, it would just add more workload to Philemon's subordinates in Hell, and the life and death of these monsters after being released into the courtyard would depend entirely on themselves, so Philemon would not care.
"The demons in Bloody Hills didn't make any big moves, and we didn't find any unusual movements from the spider demons. However, the Demon King City has responded by reorganizing its army. The previously vacant military camps in the north of the city seem to have started their daily training."
After a few days of peace, in the meeting hall of the Bloody Hill Defense Outpost, Taibesha, who was scouting the movements of the monsters, spoke to everyone.
"There's no need to worry too much about Philemon for now. As long as the population in the courtyard grows steadily, he won't do anything rash at this stage."
"As for the issue of continued population influx, what does the Adventurer's Guild say?" Mu Hua asked Charles.
Caines Courtyard has been developed for several years, and most of the people who want to come to this courtyard have moved in. Now if we want to significantly increase the population, we need to actively attract more people.
The main targets of diversion are, on the one hand, the people in the courtyards whose living environment has undergone extreme changes, and on the other hand, the survivors of the fallen country who are not accepted in the war-torn courtyards or refuse to be accepted by the victorious country.
The Adventurer's Guild holds a great deal of initiative in the arrangements for these people.
"From what I've heard, if we apply, there will be no problem in sending people here, but..." Charles hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Mu Hua asked.
"The Adventurer's Guild will probably ask you to sign a truce agreement." Charles pondered his words.
"My guess is that this is also a rumor deliberately spread by the Adventurer's Guild. They are afraid that you will rashly go to war with the Lord of the Courtyard, so they want them to arrange a large number of immigrants to the courtyard. The Adventurer's Guild may ask you not to take the initiative to start a war within ten years." Charles said.
"Ten years?" Mu Hua frowned.
It's not an unreasonable request. The Adventurer's Guild is extremely powerful, but it also attracts attention.
If they were to resettle immigrants in the Caines Courtyard, as soon as they were brought in, you would start a full-scale war with the monsters over there, which might affect them.
If a forbidden spell misses the target and kills the enemy in a wave, the one who will be blamed first will probably not be Mu Hua, but the Adventurer's Guild will probably be severely criticized.
It's not that we can't fight monsters, it's mainly because Mu Hua is too uncontrollable. This guy doesn't even need to wash his face when he gets up in the morning. He rolls up his sleeves and rushes out to fight a fierce battle with monsters before dinner.
Not to mention accidental injuries, this guy could easily piss off the Lord of the Courtyard, causing the monsters to launch some retaliatory attacks or something, and no one would be surprised.
If he keeps doing this, who would be able to bear it?
It’s not that immigrants cannot die, but at least they need a period of recuperation. Mu Hua can understand this, but ten years seems a bit too long to him.
After all, he couldn't take the initiative to mess with Philemon during these ten years, and if Philemon took the initiative to mess with him, the Adventurer's Guild wouldn't care. (End of this chapter)
