When Li Qingyu returned.

The pink mountain peaks have already soared into the sky.

The tremors on the desolate continent have not yet ceased.

From Li Qingyu's perspective at this moment, it is clearly visible.

The earth cracked and surged as pink peaks rose.

Because the pink mountain is located in the central area of ​​the wasteland continent, if it continues to emerge endlessly from the ground, it will eventually affect and even destroy the Foolish God's territory.

Li Qingyu actually had a premonition.

This pink mountain is probably heading towards that Sunshine Hamburger.

But for some reason...

Seeing this, Li Qingyu had no intention of stopping it.

even....

What are they expecting...?

Li Qingyu sighed.

"Crimson, can I see its attributes?"

【Crimson: ...I can't see it.】

"All right."

Li Qingyu nodded, not surprised.

He had a feeling that this thing was probably on par with Squidward, or even stronger.

It's normal that the deep red isn't visible.

So let's get down to business.

Once the Sword River Civilization is defeated, this match will most likely be over.

Then, Li Qingyu had an idea.

They continued to charge upwards, still wearing their green hats.

The idiots of the Sword River civilization are all stuck on the mountaintop; we can only work hard to get up there and deal with them.

As for...

Why didn't Li Qingyu resolve this earlier? Why did he have to leave it until the very end...?

no way....

It wasn't within his own territory, and the lords of the Sword River civilization weren't his prisoners. As a lord, he still had to be more restrained outside his territory.

Don't let yourself be sent back to Universe 7 prematurely at the last minute because you broke the rules; that would be truly unjust.

"Oh no, I can't feel anything in my lower body."

"You're alright, I can't feel anything below my neck."

"You guys are just too short, unlike me, it only reaches my knees."

"Waaaaah... I'm already being sucked to death, and it's even being streamed live! I just want to self-destruct..."

"Just think about it. I've tried it. Forget about self-destruction, you can't even cut yourself in half. You can only wait to die."

"This dimensional overlord is truly insane, and so is the human race. What's wrong with this world? I only wanted to stab it once, why are they doing this to me?!"

...

Li Qingyu rode his hat to the summit.

What you see is a group of swordsmen cursing and swearing.

Upon sensing Li Qingyu's reappearance, the Sword River lords changed their tune and began pleading again.

"Hahaha... Human, I knew you would come back."

"Come on, human, I'm ready. Trample me as you please!"

"Pull me first, I have a great feel for it."

"I'm soft, pull me out!"

"Human brother, my sword spirit is also humanoid, a blonde little girl with animal ears. Choose me, and I'll give you my sword spirit."

...

Faced with the pleas and temptations of a group of Sword River lords.

Li Qingyu was also in a dilemma.

As a lord, it's not easy for him to take action...

"I believe you all understand your situation."

Li Qingyu carefully considered his words.

"I understand, I understand perfectly."

"Humans, rest assured, as everyone's savior, our Sword River civilization will never treat you unfairly."

"That's right, plenty of benefits, we understand."

"Hurry up, it's almost to my chin!"

The lords of the Sword River quickly responded, expressing their eagerness to be promoted.

"It's good that you understand."

Li Qingyu nodded.

"Then I can rest assured."

The words were spoken.

The void behind Li Qingyu trembled.

In an instant, a snow-white elephant leg, as tall as a pillar, appeared.

Boom!!!

One kick.

They directly trampled the Sword River Lords, who were stuck on the surface of the pink mountain, into the pink mountain itself.

Indistinctly.

Li Qingyu seemed to hear... What the hell do you know?

The elephant leg's interference did not hinder the rise of the pink mountain; it simply caused trouble for a group of Sword River lords.

Li Qingyu was not surprised.

Xiao Meng is at most in the SSS level, not even X level.

not to mention.

Li Qingyu didn't let Xiaomeng use her skills either.

That's right, Li Qingyu, as the lord, cannot take action, but Xiao Meng, as a native creature, can kick without any scruples.

This is precisely the biggest reason why the other seven cosmic civilizations withdrew early.

The proper use of magical pets is indeed too extreme.

Of course, what the other Seventh Universe civilizations didn't anticipate was that Li Qingyu's situation was purely accidental and didn't represent every contestant from the Magic Pet Civilization...

In short... he was overthinking it.

After defeating the final Lord of the Sword River.

Li Qingyu was somewhat flustered.

because....

The system notification did not sound as expected.

Could it be... that there is some civilization still hidden and yet to be revealed?

Li Qingyu frowned and casually opened the task panel.

[Competition Objective: As a lord, manage your race and gain actual control over the ancient continent.]

"There's nothing wrong with it..."

"We've dealt with all the other races, yet we still haven't gained actual control of the Ancient Continent?"

Li Qingyu stroked his chin.

[Crimson: Have you noticed that the game objective doesn't actually require you to eliminate other races? Could it be that you've been misunderstanding all along?]

"So, how do we determine whether we have gained actual control?"
