The Fallen Shadow Beauty Snake seemed to understand what Louis meant and cheered.

It will undoubtedly be a pleasant evening for it.

It even took the initiative to invite Louis to go behind the stone, wanting to choose a quiet environment where no one could see it.

Although Louis didn't understand, he followed anyway.

The three girls looked at each other.

The little swan stammered, "He, he, he wouldn't want to be here..."

But the next moment, Louis walked out from behind the stone.

Alice was shocked:

“So soon?”

Louis said angrily, "He was killed by a ruthless hand."

Alice argued:

"I know, what else do you think I said?"

Louis clenched his palm and then loosened it, looking at the Sin Dragon Armor in his hand, which had become darker in color, and said with a subtle expression:

"The spell structure of the Tiger Taming Technique has been further optimized, although only a little bit. This Shadow Falling Magic is interesting."

As long as Rimuru continues to eat the Fallen Shadow Monsters, he can extract the power of the Fallen Shadow.

The more you kill, the stronger your Shadowfall magic becomes.

It's like it comes with a progress bar.

"By the way, what is this thing?"

"Why does this Fallen Shadow Beauty Snake lay eggs?"

Louis handed Olivia a black egg.

Olivia coughed and said:

"Although the projected Fallen Shadow Monsters will gather together according to gender to form a family-like structure, the projected creatures cannot reproduce."

Louis shook the fist-sized egg in his hand: "So what's going on? The beauty snake was found in Rimuru's body after it was almost digested."

Olivia stammered for a long time, lowered her head and blushed as she said, "It is not common sense for a Fallen Shadow Beauty Snake to have children."

"But if the other party is not a projection monster and has a substantial body as a support, there is a very small chance that it will give rise to some kind of semi-solid shadow monster."

Alice formed an "O" shape with her fingers, and the index finger of her other hand went straight through the "O". She said oddly, "Love has been transferred, right?"

Louis understood what she meant.

Judging from the skilled appearance of the Fallen Shadow Monster, it must have looked for many monsters outside.

etc.

Is this the beauty snake herself interested in this, or...

Hiss, I dare not think about it too much.

Where is the conscience? Where is the picture? Where is the video? Louis coughed, suppressed his messy thoughts and said: "If this operation is feasible, then we can adjust the plan."

Upon hearing this, the group quickly adjusted their combat methods.

The egg laid by the Fallen Shadow Beauty Snake was given to Rimuru to take care of by Louis.

He had no bag of living things to store.

This thing is inconvenient to carry.

He also told Rimuru clearly that if he accidentally scattered the egg yolk or simply ate it, he would eat it with his meal after leaving the Shadow Underworld.

This action frightened Rimuru so much that he trembled.

If the master uses the airdrop tactic again, this violent impact will make it impossible for it to survive even if it wants to! Rimuru was anxious and began to think of a solution with all his might.

As it held its breath, its true form separated from the huge slime body.

After a while, its main body stretched out its little hands and pushed into the huge [Giant Slime Gundam].

——It actually pulled out a slime emitting white light from inside.

The white slime walked over slowly and hugged the snake egg.

The slime cracked directly in extreme anxiety.

Moreover, after it cracked, he patched it up and made a slime of a different color to be a nanny.

Louis was amazed by this operation.

Olivia took a quick glance and was instantly shocked.

"Wait, isn't this the special individual slime I bought earlier?"

Louis looked at her suspiciously.

Olivia gritted her teeth and spoke of the past where she "spent a large amount of money to buy slime, but ended up feeding it all to the dogs."

"…I spent so much money, I should check what I bought, right?"

"Those 104 special slimes are basically unique individuals produced from various mines. Each one is either silver-white or gray."

"There is only one that emits a faint white light. It looks quite cute."

Olivia pointed to the extra white slime on the ground and said:

"I can't be mistaken. This is it."

Louis nodded and said:

“This is Rimuru using his unique skill [Split Thinking] to separate the individual under his control.”

The little swan pouted and said:

"Your magical pet is really special. After it evolves, it can even pull out other materials to use as its body."

"Indeed, but why did you buy so many slimes at that time?"

"Of course, it's to solve the crisis at the Royal Capital Waste Treatment Plant..." Little Swan got stuck as he spoke.

"oh?"

Louis looked at the little swan again with subtle eyes.

Beads of cold sweat broke out on the little swan's back.

“No, no, I let it slip.”

She didn't have to explain to Rumi why she spent so much money on slime.

But the same cannot be said for Huoguo.

Because she bought the slime before the accident at the Imperial Capital Waste Treatment Plant was revealed.

She didn't even explain why she had so many slimes.

Without explanation, people would just assume that "the second princess has a lot of money to burn."

Or maybe, as the Marquis of York said, "the second princess anticipated the possible troubles and started planning ahead of time."

But now she says it is "to solve the waste treatment plant crisis", which is a different concept.

——It’s as if she bought the slime with the intention of resolving the crisis from the beginning.

Facing Louis' slightly suspicious gaze, Olivia put her hands on her hips.

"Haha~ I am the wise man of the empire. As long as I find signs of problems, I will naturally make preparations first!"

"Oh? Is that true?"

Louis gave a strange smile.

He didn't say much and changed the subject directly: "You said before that those special slime individuals are basically metal slimes?"

Noticing that Louis took the initiative to change the subject, Little Swan was relieved: "Yes, almost all of them are metal slimes."

Louis lowered his head slightly in thought, without looking at the little swan wiping his sweat.

It was the first time he heard from Olivia that most of the special slimes devoured by Rimuru were metal slimes.

Then think of Rimuru's amazing ability of [Metal Control].

Some ideas came to his mind and he planned to verify them after returning to the imperial capital.

Louis gathered his thoughts and turned his attention back to the Fallen Shadow Beauty Snake.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Olivia felt a little bitter in her heart, knowing that this bad guy Huoguo might have some doubts.

After all, in this life, the country of confusion really began to use its brain.

Moreover, he uses it very skillfully.

She could only barely focus on the Fallen Shadow Beauty Snake.

It's still very troublesome when there are too many of these things.

Don’t think that the Fallen Shadow Beauty Snake is fragile just because the little swan faced the monster and knocked down the approaching beauty snake with one stick.

In fact, it was just that Little Swan was very good at playing with the stick.

The mages of Enther are not the kind of golden crispy chickens that people understand in some games, which lose the ability to resist once approached by melee professions.

On the contrary, when St. Louis College teaches mage skills, the first thing they teach is how to use a good stick.

She was very good at using the stick.

Move as fast as thunder and as quick as lightning.

And the strength is well controlled as well.

Seeing that she was able to knock the serpentine unconscious instead of directly cutting it open, we can indirectly see how tough the Enser mage is and how good his skills are.

Of course, it is said that the mages in the Republic of Tunisia are even crazier, and melee mages with real punches are popular there.

Now Louis could understand why when he talked to Sir Gandalf about the difference between "having a sword but not using it and having no sword at all", Sir Gandalf went straight to get himself a two-handed greatsword.

As for the new strategy that Louis and his team developed later...

Cough cough.

All I can say is that these four people really have no sense of morality when it comes to treating their enemies.

The group threw themselves into the battle.

They no longer try to lure the snakes onto land.

Louis used himself as bait and took the initiative to approach one of the snake's hideouts.

Not long after, several beautiful snakes emerged from the water, and each of them couldn't wait to wag their tails towards Louis.

The little swans hid, watching in amusement and silence as the beautiful snakes were seduced by Louis and walked towards the rock where the three were lying in ambush.

Alice thought for a moment and said:

"I got some useless trivia. These guys don't refuse to be part of the group."

It made the little swan next to him laugh so hard that his stomach hurt.

Louis’ main goal is to never look back.

When they reached the big rock, the dozen or so beautiful snakes couldn't wait to move over.

Then there is the stave's knock.

The one with the scepter hits the head.

Those who have knives and swords can just stab them through.

By the time the remaining scattered beauty snakes realized something was wrong, the four of them had already rushed out from behind the rocks, laughing.

A backstab using a beauty trap.

A resounding victory.

Louis' sword was stained with blood.

Rimuru was blessed with a feast once again.

After evolving into a giant slime, Rimuru's digestive ability underwent a qualitative change.

Even with such a large number of Fallen Shadow Monsters, it would only take a few minutes to digest them.

To be honest, some things taste sweet and delicious when you first put them in your mouth.

But once you eat too much, it will become a bit boring.

After eating a dozen or so Fallen Shadow Beauty Snakes, Rimuru began to convey to Louis the emotion of "I don't like eating anymore".

Louis rubbed it and said nothing.

Rimuru obediently continued to digest.

The power of Fallen Shadow contained in the body of the Fallen Shadow Beauty Snake, as the digestion progressed, was transferred madly to Louis' body like a faucet turned to the maximum.

With every breath, Louis could feel the power of the Fallen Shadow surging in every blood vessel.

He felt his heart beating many times faster than usual.

The sinful dragon weapon hidden within the skin let out a ferocious roar.

It was a kind of pleasure like the transformation of flesh and blood.

In a trance, he felt that the power of the Sin Dragon Armor in his body had accumulated to a certain limit.

With a bang, a series of crisp sounds of bones colliding came from his body.

His whole body seemed to have grown half as much, becoming more symmetrical and slender, but his bright eyes dimmed.

The women could clearly feel that the aura surrounding Louis had become more restrained.

If we say that he used to be an uncontrollable, sharp sword.

Well now, he has learned to hide his edge.

Louis, advance to LV7!

He let out a long breath and said, "I have been stuck at the level 6 barrier for so long, but I finally made it through."

Alice paused and said:

"Have you chosen an advanced career?"

Louis nodded.

Alice became interested.

She asked curiously:

"What profession did you choose?"

"Master Blood Claw, Shadow Sun Ninja, or Ruby Guard?"

The seven advanced professions of the Nine Swords all require mastering the relevant advanced requirements before having a chance to advance.

However, you can't advance to an advanced profession just because you want to.

Alice spread her hands and said, "There's no other way. It's not easy for you to advance to other advanced professions at this time."

"The Deep Stone Sentinel can only exert its maximum power when standing on the ground. Its application range is relatively narrow. With your personality, I don't think you will allow yourself to have such a defect."

"The number of Jade Phoenix Mages as an advanced profession is limited. Only when the old Jade Phoenix Mages die can new Jade Phoenix Mages be born."

"The quota for Jade Phoenix Mage is full now. I haven't heard of anyone falling. It's unlikely that you will advance."

"Although the Nine Swords Grandmaster is very powerful, the professional requirements that need to be met to advance are too high. Even for you, it is unlikely that you can get enough now."

"Not to mention the Eternal Blade. This profession requires the guidance of a strong elf from the Hidden Forest in the ancient times."

"Although we have the relevant inheritance, without any advance preparation, the possibility of you advancing directly here is very low."

Louis understood.

Simply put, Deep Stone Sentinels have restrictions, Nine Swords Grandmasters need a higher professional level to take up the position, and Jade Phoenix Mages and Eternal Blades are "relatives" who need extra preparation.

Louis smiled and said, "I meet the advancement requirements for Master Blood Claw and Shadow Sun Ninja. Ruby Guard is more troublesome, as it requires faith in the Goddess of Death and Magic."

"Which one do you think I will take?"

Alice's eyes lit up: "I've seen through you a long time ago. You're just like me. You don't simply believe in whatever god is powerful, but whatever god is useful."

Louis nodded: "Isn't it normal that there are no idle gods on the land of Enser?"

Alice clapped her hands and laughed: "That makes sense, it makes so much sense!"

"If that's the case, I think you'll choose Ruby Guard!"

Louis was surprised and asked, "Why do you think so?"

Seeing his expression, Alice grinned: "No reason, because among these three advanced professions, the Ruby Guard has the strongest combat power."

Louis nodded and said, "Indeed, the Ruby Guard, blessed by the Goddess of Death and Magic, is indeed the strongest of the three professions."

"If I remember correctly, you are employed by the Ruby Guard?"

Alice nodded and smiled, "It's okay to become stronger and become a shallow believer of the goddess. Besides, the goddess has been very nice to me."

"So you really chose to advance to the Ruby Guard..."

"That's right, I chose to advance to the Eternal Blade!"

Alice: ???

Alice's big chest couldn't contain all the doubts.

So much that it’s about to overflow.

"What the hell?"
