The obedient native intelligent creatures would be taken as his subjects and they would be transformed into his believers. Of course, Haru did not want any intelligent creatures of the dark and evil faction. This would cause chaos in his territory and the gains would not make up for the losses.
Sylvana thought and said to Haru, "Lord Almighty, there is a tribe of Elves in the Andes Highlands, and the nomadic type Grassland Elves exist in the Endless Prairie. Why don't I make a trip and see if I can bring them to join as your subjects?"
"Not now!" Haru shook his head and said, "We're about to go to war, stay in the city! If you go now, they won't listen to you, even if you are an Elven Mother Tree and a Demigod!"
After a moment of silence, Haru continued, "Once I establish a True Kingdom and increase my influence and reputation in the Endless Continent, the chances of success will be higher!"
Haru believed that a Dynasty that would be recognized by the laws of the world, would definitely increase the attraction to the local intelligent creatures. After the ceremony, his army could kill some disobedient people, and the others would know what to do. After hearing Haru's words, Sylvana nodded as well. She would never refuse or oppose Haru's words.
…
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. Haru's armies had already swept the area with over 1,000 kilometers of radius around Angel City. They killed nearly a million wild monsters. There were over two hundred local forces of all sizes that were destroyed.
Over two million units of food, millions of monster materials, over four hundred thousand Power Stones, over five thousand Magic Crystals and over three hundred blueprints. In addition, there were Wood, Stone, and Refined Iron, totaling over six million units.
These two days could be said to be a hunting carnival! As his army cleared the wild monsters and local forces within a thousand kilometers, it made it difficult to see any wild monsters and intelligent creatures around Angel City.
The only way to deal with wild monsters was to kill them. As for the local intelligent creatures, Haru did not kill them all. The ones who were killed were all from the dark and evil faction or those who were unwilling to believe in him.
The surviving intelligent creatures were forcibly taken into Angel City, becoming the second batch of natives under Haru's command. At the same time, they were all converted into his believers.
As two days passed, Angel City's population reached a hundred thousand. This was absolutely terrifying as compared to other Castle Lords. This was even larger than the Dwarf Kingdom and the Forest Giant Kingdom.
For an ordinary Dynasty-level force, it was already enough. However, Haru's Divine Kingdom was a dynasty that wanted to rule the entire Dark Forest. A population of one hundred thousand was not enough for him.
Haru believed that even a million people would not be enough. However he was not in a hurry. This was only the area within 1,000 km. The entire Dark Forest was five to six thousand kilometers in diameter and there was a huge area waiting for him to clear it.
He believed that when he would clear the entire Dark Forest, his city would have a population of at least a few millions. It might even have a chance of breaking through the ten million mark.
…
In the outer area of the city, there were already many races living together. There were Gnomes, Two-Headed Demons, etc. There were tens of thousands of Gnomes. Without exception, they were all Haru's believers. At all times, as long as they had free time, they would gather together, face towards the direction of the core city, and pray to their God of Faith from afar. A steady stream of faith energy was absorbed by the [Altar of Faith].
The power of faith was simply too much which caused the altar of faith to shine with a dazzling light. For the time being, Haru had no way of collecting this power of faith because he had yet to become a God. Once he became a God, he could harvest this power of faith and refine it into his Divine power.
For the believers, Haru would not refuse anyone as long as it wasn't someone from the dark and evil race. Just like the Angels had said, their Lord's light enveloped all the races of the world. Any heretic who was willing to believe in him could become his follower.
As for Haru himself, how could he care about their origins when they could provide him with the power of faith. After all, the number of believers would directly affect his strength after becoming a God of Faith. If he could find a way to change a race's faction, he could even accept the Dark Elves. On the contrary, there was really no need to think about the undead creatures because Angels and the undead were eternal enemies.
"Lord Almighty!" At that moment, a Saint Tier Dwarf appeared before Haru and reported, "So far, we've created 2,389 magic cannons, as well as nearly 4,000 arrow towers, 3,000 giant crossbows, and 275 crossbow outposts. They're all built on the outer wall. This kind of defense should be enough to withstand the attack of one million troops!"
The Dwarf's eyes were filled with reverence, and he was very excited. He was very happy to live in such a huge city that was allowing the Dwarves to use their forging talents to their heart's content. They lived happily every day.
"Good!" Haru nodded, "Let's do this for now! These defensive structures, along with his [Astral City], are enough to destroy the alliances' army. We also need to let the army harvest experience points. How's the equipment forging going?"
"My Lord, in accordance with your instructions, we have built many standard equipment suitable for humans to wear, and currently we have stocked nearly 80,000 pieces of equipment in the categories of attack, defense, and special effects combined." The Saint Tier Dwarf answered respectfully.
