Half-Elves are inherently timid, and the combat strength of Half-Elf professional troops is seen as a joke by the Imperial Province Legion, not to mention these overseers who usually neglect training.

Su Li feared that before the battle even began, a single charge from the monsters would scatter these Half-Elves.

The Sheriff said, "To go to the battlefield, we cannot use these Half-Elf overseers to lead the teams. As the Ogre camp within our territory grows, some powerful Ogres have come attracted to it, including the Ogre Purse Leader."

"In Ogre culture, wealth and rewards are extremely important, so the role of the Purse Leader is crucial to their society. They fight alongside their comrades, using promises of rich rewards to motivate them forward."

"Of course, these Purse Leaders are also known for their greed and stinginess; they are typical misers. With sharp survival instincts, they ensure that only those who persist until the battle's end get paid."

"They are demanding, harsh in words, always shouting loudly, urging other Ogres to fight harder for money. Motivated by personal gain, they are even happy to see others fall, as it means they can claim more of the reward share."

"We currently have two Ogre Purse Leaders in our territory, possessing the unique Ogre racial trait [Beheading Merit], which is a key reason why Ogre mercenaries are famed across the Empire and the continent! With this trait, as long as the Ogre Purse Leaders are on the battlefield, they can intervene with the enemy's defense using the Divine Power of the Great Stomach God, while significantly increasing the fighting spirit of the Ogres around them, furiously hacking at the opponent."

Upon hearing this, Su Li was finally interested; the two Ogre Purse Leaders, bringing along five squads of Ogre Bull Warriors, would form an excellent assault team. Thus, Ogre mercenaries are popular with commanders who have the means to feed them.

Nevertheless, it is extremely expensive to sustain a group of idle Ogres for an extended period, so assembling an Ogre mercenary force is usually considered a signal to declare war.

Ogre Bull Warriors are standout members in the Ogre mercenary forces; these powerful monster infantry tend to adopt aspects of local customs that they enjoy, so their appearance and equipment have significant variances. Their fondness for clubs and stomach shields never changes.

It's truly a waste to keep such excellent assault teams in the castle for defense. Hence, Su Li said, "Let the two Ogre Purse Leaders bring the Bull Warriors and accompany me to the border outpost to engage the Two-legged Flying Dragon."

After saying this, Su Li looked at Minister of Agriculture Vandar and asked, "Supplying so many Ogres is no easy task; is the grain storage sufficient?"

Vandar immediately replied with confidence, "Lord, rest assured. Our Dawn Church will definitely ensure the supply of grain at the frontline, and it will not hinder the development of the territory either. I just went to see the new Spirit Tree, and I will take good care of it."

"As for the Rainbow Falls north of the Green Leaf Hills you mentioned, we will quickly complete it. Ensure ample logistic momentum for the territory's expansion while you campaign."

This elder Druid is now so full of energy that most young people feel deeply ashamed in comparison.

This is not just due to spiritual encouragement but also because he bathed in a large amount of Divine Grace, successfully advancing to champion level!

Under Su Li's guidance, the priests of the Dawn Church smoothly introduced the invisible magic rainwater into the Starlight Pool, a religious holy land, during the Autumnal Equinox.

Then, their church organized personnel to conduct prayers here, with large sacrifices of the Wind of Jilun greatly pleasing the Dawn Goddess!

This most generous Divine Spirit lived up to its reputation, bestowing unrivaled Divine Grace.

The preparatory nuns selected by the Dawn Church broke through on the spot, becoming novice nuns.

This allowed the Dawn Church's priests and nuns to breakthrough the boundary of 30 people at once!

Bear in mind that the entire population of Hesse Territory is only about 6000, yet their Dawn Church has successfully nurtured 30 priests, evidently becoming the second-largest church in name but the largest in fact!

Even the priests of the Sun Goddess Church do not have that many; after aiding Hesse Territory with family support, they brought a large amount of family specialty religious Holy Images, allowing the Sun Goddess convent in the territory to be expanded. After all, the characteristic of the Sun Goddess Church is their Goddess statue holding a longsword.

The largest Sun Goddess convent on the northern side of the territory was expanded in scale; although the Dwarves' manpower was limited, and their convent buildings haven't been expanded yet, the Goddess statue has been replaced, turning into a 6-meter-tall Holy Image, carved in marble.

When the fiery sun rises, the golden glory shines upon this Holy Image, even those who do not believe in the Sun Goddess can feel the Divine Spirit's majesty from the sunlight-reflecting, dazzling statue.

The territory's Religious Advisor Rong'en, along with three powerful Paladins, presides over the operation of this convent.

Meanwhile, the territory also has four convents of the Goddess established at the Knight Order's station, city district, and some scenic holy sites.

Even so, the priests of the Sun Goddess convent do not exceed 10 people with Su Li's support as Lord.

Therefore, the Dawn Goddess Church is undoubtedly the church with the most priests in the territory; their lack of prominence is purely because their main preaching areas deliberately avoid those of the Sun Goddess Church and the Goddess of Life and Mercy Church; they have little influence in the city district, the countryside and rural areas being their widespread areas of faith.
