Ogolaot's build is actually not much different from a 'magic-using medieval nomadic nation'.
However, the land he has is more than twice that of other players.
Cultivating a large amount of food on a vast land, promote
With a large population, everything is easy. The nature is clean, there's a large labor force and military, an abundance of talented people, and powerful mysteries derived from the magic of the vast land.
The only problem is
Even magic isn't omnipotent. Even on modern Earth, the local situation couldn't be confirmed without direct inspection.
Ogolaot is therefore leading the majority of the subordinate gods who are solely responsible for solving administrative problems.
It was to the extent that they were mobilizing. One can only imagine the hardships that come with a vast territory and a 'normally strong' large population.
By the time the fifth conflict occurred, Ogolaot had absorbed the cities of the settled tribes based on the vast and rich grasslands and the numerous livestock raised there, and now he was the master of a unified kingdom with an incredibly strong cavalry force with mountain and forest guerrilla forces, and he could list ten solid strengths and four plans to subdue the enemy world.

There are several reasons why Vein declared war on the Ogolaot who was the strongest out of the Mythical Alliance.
Fundamentally, it is because the characteristics of Ogolaot were just too good.
『The Creation of Heaven and Earth』 which is capable of manipulating the very expanse of the world, would undoubtedly expand Vein's ecosystem severalfold, creating a vast natural landscape of mind-boggling proportions. Unlike Ogolaot, Vein's creatures had no need to worry about
There may be many other good mythical traits, but for now, it was very important for Vein to choose that one and rapidly raise his weight class.
Secondly, because the build of Ogolaot itself was ideal for Vein to take down.
Ogolaot's build is based on the vast lands that are impossible to manage on his own. This weakness can be overcome only in the later stages when
That means, if the Vein opened dimensional gates in all directions and dropped his dessert armys on the relatively uninhabited and 'less important' pastures, while allowing them to reproduce on their own, it will be very difficult for the Ogolaot to control them.
The very premise of completely eradicating the Desert Army by thoroughly scouring every land in the world, as enemies have tried so far, is difficult.
However, the opponent is already at the top of the players at this point.
It wasn't so weak that it could be defeated by 'just that level of disadvantage'.
For the first time since Elguano and Mukite, and for the first time as a military group rather than a single entity, Ogolaot were able to inflict catastrophic damage on the Vein ecosystem.
"Burn everything! Leave no living thing in this world behind!"
The commander of the knights, Haina, barked out orders to his hundreds of bison knights.
Their god, Ogolaot, decreed that unlike the worlds before, there were no intelligent beings in this world. It was full of terrible monsters and evil creatures, so they were to kill everything in sight and burn everything.
Ogolaot hadn't seen a single hill, let alone a forest, in the first five rounds, which was impressive in its own right, so ultimately, their 'Archers' were all wizards. In short, magic archers.
Ogolaot trained the world's elite knights who have strong bodies honed through rigorous training and ride powerful, fast, and delicious herbivorous animals similar to buffaloes to swarm the enemy lines.
The last two times, during the world collision, the heavy cavalry fought against the settled people's army, but now it is different.
They ran through the steppe grasslands and gummy forests of the dessert desert they were familiar with, burning every living thing they saw with their fire magic and taking them down with the spirits of the seventh world they conquered.
Armed with magical weapons that seemed to contain mysteries in steel, they marched forward, literally burning every living thing they saw, including swords, yokan, pudding, and candy.
No matter how powerful Vein's ecosystem is, it is not easy to defeat such a powerful elite unit that is deployed right away.
"If we just hold out for five more days, the next wave will arrive! Before the next wave arrives, we'll cut down all these terrible stone trees (He's talking about the Gumi tree) and hunt as many of the horrible creatures that live here as we can!"
"Yes!"
Haina was a powerful, epic-level unique entity. In short, a veteran among veterans, having survived several clashes without dying.
As a vanguard, He repeatedly carried out the mission to cross dimensional gates, subduing opposing worlds, and laying the foundation for the arrival of his successors, thus ensuring his survival.
So, the elite army of three hundred men, including Haina, went through the grasslands and forests, dealing with all the gummy trees that were abundant here and the yokans and Sweet Tooths that lived there.
Frankly, it wasn't an easy task. The monsters and the savages possessed fighting power that was hard to believe was that of wild creatures.
When the buffalos, whom the buffalo had named a martial arts monster, 'saw' and dodged a fireball fired from a distance of only 2 meters, then rode up and hung on the rider's neck, and broke the neck of one of the elite soldiers, he wondered what kind of wild animal had learned the principles of martial arts.
When the massive monsters, either perched on the trees or gnawing on the leaves on the ground, waved their hands in the air and unleashed plant and wind magic, they thought they were going crazy. Didn't the gods say there were only mindless wild things? Why were there some who could talk and cast magic?
"Isn't it just a mistake of God to say there are only wild animals, and aren't they just the indigenous people of this forest?"
So, when they tried to contact the group diplomatically, he found out that they had a crazy territorial instinct that would shoot magic at people just by approach, and their speech was so awkward that even if they were to be called humans, their vocabulary would be at the level of a retard..
They were just fools that could use magic at the level of an elite soldier.
"Are you kidding me?!"
Even though they were dealing with only wild animals, the losses were considerable.
Dozens of stray birds just charging in and pecking at the eyes or arms caused a loss of power.
It wasn't because they were pathetic. When God had commanded them to explore the uncharted territory of {Great Nature} and defeat its monsters, they suffered a tremendous loss they had never experienced before.
When considering only the abilities as pure creatures, Haina and his knights were far inferior to the creatures of the Dessert Army.
But there is intelligence. There is discipline. There is knowledge. There is equipment. That's why civilization has meaning.
Haina recorded what he had learned here in the form of a journal just in case (the creatures here would not recognize the value of a journal, much less understand their own writing), and slowly expanded the terrain of the grasslands and forests, making a map.
Creatures in the dessert desert would be harmful to animals with normal digestive systems.
However, Ogolaot was the ruler of a kingdom with enormous resources.
Naturally, it was a rule that a {Mystery Chef} must be brought along as a member of the supply army on expeditions beyond dimensional gates.
At first glance, the term {Cooking Mystery} sounds like a rather poor mystery.
However, {Cooking Mystery} is useful for all aspects of survival, such as identifying ingredients, removing toxins, making food more delicious, providing essential nutrients, preserving food, processing ingredients, and gathering. It's a surprisingly useful mystical skill.
In addition, surveyors, architects, researchers, and others were dispatched to directly experiment with materials from this world and utilize them effectively, assisting in the first reconnaissance beyond the dimensional gate.
They would soon establish a settlement in the dessert desert, a corner of this terrible ecosystem, and expand from there.
They are such experts. How could the wild stand in their way?
Ogolaot mobilized his knights and laborers to completely cultivate the wilderness given to him, {Great Nature}, in less than three years within the game. This was despite the fact that the area was twice as large as the normal world.
Thinking like that, Haina spent the first day, unprepared, sleeping outside on night watch, setting up a temporary camp on the second day, setting up camp on the third day, and somehow continuing the work of removing evil spirits on the fourth day, forming a wide open space, and waiting for the follow-up force to arrive on the fifth day…
'It' appeared.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!
"What?"
"A monster, a monster? The most powerful monster in this world?"
No, it's not the most powerful monster in the world.
But the second most powerful monster.
Hundreds of flying insects soared, followed by thousands of breads and jellies. A giant monster, its fanged fog hanging from its body, devouring, spawning, and scattering everything in sight.
The second commander of the Dessert Army, Shuk-Rimuras, has appeared.
[More!]
A strange voice. An unintelligible language. Haina frantically woke her men and fled from the "thing" that had appeared in the night.
To be honest, He felt like he would never win.
In fact, Shuk-Rimuras, who appeared with the thousand-bread army, simply chewed up the camp they had set up, spread fog, slaughtered all the captured creatures and livestock, and turned the place into a wasteland.
No, the word wasteland is a misnomer, because after clearing everything out, the fog and its own perforated body and buttocks poured out thousands of evil spirits.
Sweets, candy, jellies, gummies, puddings, bread, and candies—they didn't discriminate. Shuk-Rimuras frantically spawned and scattered every evil they'd ever seen in this dessert desert.
The meadow they had worked on for five days had become a lush forest of gummy trees after Shuk-Rimuras had passed through for a day. It was filled with gourds, squid, and all sorts of other vicious carnivorous desserts.
"There was something like that living there."
"What should we do?"
"What should we do? We have to keep setting up camp and expanding our base. Do you think we could wander around without a base?"
And then came the follow-up. Originally, they had to stay in a well-prepared camp, but they had to spread the mysteries and the supplies they brought, and there was a forest of stone trees, magic monkeys, martial arts monkeys, and a forest of monkeys that wandered around and came running after a while.
We had a terrible time setting up camp, dealing with puddings and crazy bat-birds, as well as crazy round things who could turn armored knights' intestines into mud with their body slams or beat well-trained military buffalo to death, crazy metallic evil creatures who couldn't even use fire, let alone a sword, and so on.
Five days later, Shuk-Rimuras returned, and the clearing, now twice as wide as the army had been, was transformed into forest and meadow in less than one day. It was truly a magnificent miracle of nature.
"It's a formidable enemy. But God must be watching us through our eyes. If we hold out, stronger reinforcements will surely arrive."
"Yes, without a doubt!"
Ten days later, the knights, barely surviving in the wild, were finally visited by a 2,000-man engineering force dispatched by Ogolaot.
The vanguard of Haina numbered 300, the rearguard of 500, and the 2,000-man unit combined to make about 3,000 men. The total battle losses were approximately 2,500.
In just one day, they set fire to the forest like crazy and hunted the evil species, turning an area of nearly 100 kilometers squared into a wasteland.
They literally dug up the equivalent of ten pieces of God's Shards and set up camp on the second day, a camp on the third day, and a fortress on the fourth day.
They did it.
It was an achievement made possible by a massive workforce, years of training experience, overworked soldiers, and the support of the powerful flow and magical power recovery mysteries that God had pushed like crazy.
[More!!!]
And on the fifth day. Shuk Rimuras came again and pushed the fortress away with just the mass of his body, ate 800 of the 2,500 soldiers, made the remaining 1,700 flee in disarray, abandoning all their armor, weapons, and the fortress.
Then, he ate the stones, fences, and structures that had been used to build the fortress, the poison that had been spread in case the creatures could be blocked by them, countless military livestock, weapons, medicine, food, and other things, all in one day with thousands of creatures, had turned it into a lush gummy jungle once again.
They clearly caused catastrophic damage to the ecosystem. But even that fatal damage was repaired in a single day.
"Excuse me, Commander."
"Don't say anything, don't say anything… Just set up a new campsite..."
The vanguard including Haina, the elite engineering army, and the contingent that was subsequently deployed, tried to somehow establish a base in the dessert desert beyond the dimensional gate.
They struggled, but until five years later, when the dimensional passage opened and there was no need to set up camp or anything like that, they were forced to endure, sleeping out in the desert and chewing on the jellies that tasted like sand, unable to claim even a single inch of land.
You might be wondering, "Why on earth did they come?" But the original plan always seems perfect until it's put into action.
Ogolaot simply thought he couldn't send enough power to hunt Shuk-Rimuras in the opposing world during the dimensional gate stage.
However, if you think about it positively, it wasn't entirely without its drawbacks, as Shuk-Rimuras, a powerful force, and the enormous amount of energy he consumed were used to restore the ecosystem.
Rather, having confirmed that Ogolaot had the potential to destroy the ecosystem, they were confident that investing more force would yield results.
The morale of the soldiers, who had spent five years rebuilding camps in the desert desert, which were daily reclaimed from the wilderness, was at rock bottom, even in the gutter.
But that was the price they had to pay.
