"I don't know!"
Louis said innocently.
The old pastor took a deep breath.
Resist the urge to curse.
He said slowly, "The core of the secret method of the Church of the God of Death and Sleep is to use the power of death to stimulate the soul into an active state."
"In this process, the fear rooted in the heart will be induced, and each breakthrough is equivalent to dispelling the fear in the heart."
"Your soul will become more solid, and your will will be like a shining diamond, more difficult to carve."
"At this point, the illusions created by ordinary ghosts and specters will no longer pose any threat to you."
The old pastor looked at Louis speechlessly:
"So what's your situation? You've completed a journey that takes others years to complete in one step?"
Louis thought for a moment.
I roughly understood what was going on.
For some unknown reason, his soul was polished in one step, and then easily became immune to the illusions created by ghost-like undead?
The speed was so fast that there was no need to induce fear.
At most, I saw another self in my mind talking about "Journey to the West" for a long time, and then told him to get rid of his inner demons.
And then...then he woke up.
Then, the spiritual energy in his body began to run wild.
It was visible to the naked eye that the strength of psychic energy had increased dramatically.
Almost in an instant, he felt that he had pierced through a layer of fog and saw a model-level scenery.
What a pity.
Although this power is closely related to himself, it does not belong to Louis's original power.
If you must say it, it is equivalent to an external experience bar.
When he activates the Sin Dragon Armor, this extra experience bar will be injected into his body and become part of his strength.
His actual professional level needs to be recalculated after adding additional experience.
Unfortunately, this is not a numerical bonus like "Professional Level +1" in games.
This extra experience bar cannot break through the barrier of one life level jump every 10 levels.
Otherwise he would have had paragon-level power by now.
Rather than just a glimpse of the scenery.
But...it's not bad either.
At the level of freeloading, he now has one more trump card.
But...something seems to be wrong with his current state.
After all, the deepest fear in his heart didn't seem to be brought out at all.
At most, I heard a lot of dirty talk.
Louis told the old pastor about his situation.
Of course, he wasn't stupid enough to say it out loud.
The specific content of the conversation was vague, and he only said that he did not induce the source of fear, but he did have something to fear.
The old pastor thought for a moment, looked at Louis and said, "What's your name?"
"Caesar."
"Are you interested in hearing me introduce our god, the cold and solemn Lord of Death and Sleep?"
"Please, please don't do this. I'm afraid I'll become a heretic in the church."
There is a sickle, hammer and red in the heart, and one cannot bear to see the presence of God.
“That’s a shame,” the old priest sighed, “It means you have gotten rid of your ultimate fear.”
"Forehead……"
Louis seemed to understand what was going on.
What was he most afraid of when he came to this world? Without a doubt, it was being pushed to the guillotine.
But from all indications, it is impossible for him to go to the guillotine. At most, he will be defeated and will directly launch the Cursed Legion.
Just step on the accelerator towards the burning world route!
But in this case...
"Why does this secret technique have a hint of psychic magic?"
He muttered.
This method of honing oneself and relying on the accumulation of past experience to directly break through the mental limit, among the professionals Louis knows, only psychics can do this.
The practice of a psychic is the practice of the mind.
Theoretically speaking, if someone can attain enlightenment in one day, even if he is a little Karami at level 1 at this second, he can become a legend or even a demigod in the next second.
Even if you ascend directly to LV30, you will still be stuck at this level due to lack of divine fire.
But Louis had never heard of such a monster.
It can only be said that in theory, professions such as psychic, psychic scholar, and psychic warrior have this possibility.
However, after learning about Louis' situation, the old priest gave a suggestion: "If possible, I suggest you don't follow those monks and practice asceticism in seclusion in the mountains and forests. Your situation is too special."
Louis asked, “How do you say that?”
"You just called the fear in your heart a demon. That's quite interesting." The old pastor chuckled. "You have overcome the biggest demon. Other smaller demons are no problem for you."
Louis said nothing.
That's because you don't know how troublesome the problem is.
What about Demon King Hermo and the Four Gods of the Abyss...
It's really not easy to target these messy guys.
Even he can only look to the future.
But one thing is worth affirming.
That is the Sin Dragon Armor as an additional experience bar. In principle, the higher the experience bar accumulates, the more beneficial it will be to his future.
After all, just because there is no way to break through the upper limit of LV10 does not mean that there is no way to break through LV20.
After he breaks through the paradigm, the Sin Dragon Armor might be able to reach the energy level of LV20 at LV11 just by stacking the experience bar.
This is the most important thing.
Therefore, continuing to remove the inner demons is also a good choice.
Seeing that Louis seemed to have figured it out, the old pastor smiled and said, "You have a natural advantage in this regard. Going from 0 to 1 is much more difficult than going from 1 to 10."
"If you are worried about having no demons in your heart, then just wallow in this turbid world. As long as you are in this turbid world, the demons in your heart will continue to grow."
"Every time you remove your inner demons, it is an opportunity for you to grow spiritually."
Louis nodded and said "thank you".
He just looked up and saw the old pastor's meaningful expression, and suddenly frowned.
"No, this guy is coming for me?"
The old pastor nodded to Louis, and a gentle voice came over:
"Well done, the stars need a trustworthy sin."
The old priest's mouth did not open.
It was obvious that the words were transmitted directly into his heart through some kind of divine magic.
"Another old man who knows my background?"
Louis understood.
This old pastor definitely did not come here to guide the dead souls.
At least not simply.
I'm afraid he wanted to come and take a look himself, or someone asked him to do so.
"By the way, you have to be careful not to reveal your true colors in the Supreme Forest, otherwise it will be a very ugly scene."
The old pastor said one more sentence and then said nothing more.
Louis was a little confused.
The High Forest?
What does it have to do with those long ears?
However, seeing that the old pastor didn't want to explain at all, he didn't ask again.
William and Fabrico started arguing again.
Fabrico said that if William continued to fight in the same way as before, something bad would happen sooner or later.
Louis didn't quite understand what Fabrico meant.
In his opinion, William’s battles were full of details, with both offensive and defensive capabilities, and he had no fatal weaknesses.
But Fabrico's style of play...is it really true that no one will die?
William didn't say anything, just smiled, obviously not wanting to answer.
The old priest shook his scepter, and a clear sound of bells rang out around him.
More and more light blue ghosts were floating in the air and gathering towards them.
Everyone raised their weapons and a fierce battle began.
As the killing went on, Alice frowned.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that some of the ghosts inside were familiar. Suddenly, a sword flashed.
Louis stood in front of her:
"Something is wrong. I saw the ghosts that escaped from the Shadowless Underworld."
Alice suddenly realized.
No wonder she always felt something was wrong.
When they kill monsters such as the Unjustly Dead Water Ghosts in the Shadowless Underworld, their souls will also escape.
But perhaps those monsters are more like artificial creatures, and the undead transformed from souls would be more clumsy and lack aggressiveness.
In addition, it takes time to transform into undead, and Louis and Alice were too lazy to clean up these souls at the time.
Now, the souls of the dead from the Shadowless Underworld have appeared in the real world?
There's something wrong with this.
Louis rushed over and told the old pastor about the situation.
The old pastor's face changed: "Oh no, this is a bit troublesome."
The old priest raised his scepter, and divine spells descended from the sky.
The roar continued, and soon most of the undead at the scene were wiped out by him.
After the terrifying power in him erupted, Louis clearly felt that this old priest was clearly a top-level model at LV20.
He smacked his lips.
Who is this old wizard?
He had met the Archbishop of the Church of the God of Death and Sleep, who was a Level 18 priest.
LV20. I don’t know how Nan Feiyan invited such a mage.
Soon, the undead at the scene were almost cleared.
Several priests walked over from a distance, with subtle expressions on their faces.
"Did something happen?"
Captain Livia asked.
"Let's stop here for now about contact with the undead. Something went wrong and now you must return as soon as possible."
Everyone looked at each other, but no one was stupid enough to choose to stay.
…
One hour later.
The old priest took Louis and Alice to the office of the Chancellor of the Privy Seal.
Soon, they saw Beatrice.
Beatrice's eyes immediately fell on Louis, who was wearing armor.
But she didn't expose him, she just said calmly: "Caesar, Alice, why are you following Lord Valgri?"
Lord Valkyrie bowed and said:
"Your Highness, the undead from the Shadowless Underworld have appeared in the undead tide at the outskirts of the city."
Beatrice frowned and looked at Louis: "Really?"
Louis nodded: "I saw it with my own eyes."
Beatrice rang the bell on the table, and Qian opened the door and walked in.
“Your Highness…”
"Xia, notify the Roxy Empire, as well as the East and West Monai Kingdoms, and have them investigate whether the seal has been loosened."
"yes."
After Qian finished speaking, she left.
Beatrice then turned her gaze to the others and said, "Don't spread this matter yet. Ask the surrounding countries about the situation. If it is true, then we must prepare in advance."
…
After the old pastor and his companions left, Louis and Alice were left behind.
Louis took off his helmet: "I'm dying of suffocation."
Qian walked in and said, "The three countries have been notified. This matter is a bit troublesome. I'm afraid you will need to take the lead in the future to see if you can promote relevant cooperation."
Beatrice nodded: "I will pay attention to this."
Louis asked curiously, "What happened?"
"The Shadowfall Underworld is getting closer and closer to the Star Continent."
"Huh?" Louis was stunned.
Aren't the Shadowfall Underworld and the Star Continent always close? Even in St. Louis College, there is a constant road leading to the Shadowfall Underworld.
Beatrice seemed to have sensed Louis's thoughts, and shook her head and said:
"Unlike the passage to St. Louis College, the main administrator of the Shadowfall Underworld is now Father Emperor. He can easily open a passage to the real world."
"But only if he is willing to open it."
"But now, the souls killed by you, transformed into undead by the power of death, have come to the Star Continent."
"This means that a new passage that is not controlled by humans has appeared in the Shadowfall Underworld."
"If it's just the Shadowfall, then it's fine."
"I am afraid that it is not just the Shadowfallen Underworld."
Louis suddenly realized.
The constant channel at St. Louis College uses a "password".
Without the "password", you cannot enter the Shadowless Underworld. If you want to get out, you have to pass the test of your mother-in-law.
In other words, it looks like Louis and his group can come and go freely through this channel, but that's because they are the exception.
Not to mention the weak passage on Central Avenue.
Outsiders can enter the Shadowless Underworld, but that doesn’t mean the local undead can get out.
In the final analysis, if an outsider forces himself into the body of the Fallen Shadow, the Fallen Shadow will only try to squeeze you out.
That's why outsiders can go back so easily through the weak channel.
This does not mean that the undead creatures transformed from the Shadowfall monsters can easily escape.
These monsters were created from the essence of the Shadowless Underworld. If they leave the Shadowless Underworld and lose control, it will be a permanent decline in the foundation of the Shadowless Underworld.
I don’t know how much real-world emotions I need to absorb to fill the void.
"Generally speaking, the extraordinary powers of different worlds are not interoperable. It is even difficult to stay in other worlds for a long time."
Beatrice explained: "Especially the undead that you let go, their own strength is definitely not strong."
"Coming directly into the real world without any spatial ability is a very bad sign."
"This means that the Shadowfall Underworld, or even the Shadow Plane, is getting closer and closer to the Star Continent."
The former is okay and can still be controlled.
The latter… The number of monsters in the shadow plane is countless.
Louis shook his head and sighed.
It is said that the most brutal invasion of monsters from the shadow plane permanently changed the ecology of some worlds.
For example, among the demon clan, there appeared a demon that did not exist originally - the Shadow Demon.
For example, there are some shadow creatures living in the dark and gloomy places in some main material continents.
The damage these existences have caused to the local ecology is far beyond the imagination of others.
The only thing to be thankful for is that this matter was discovered relatively early.
"Louis, you might be busy from now on."
Beatrice said, looking at Louis.
Louis asked, "What do you mean?"
"If there is a problem with the shadow plane, then several nearby countries may have to unite to encircle and suppress the shadow monsters."
"I'm afraid that by then there will be a high probability that various forces will be involved."
"The Adventurer's Association may make a big move by then, and I'm afraid your president will come after you."
Alice sneered, "If the Shadow Demon Tide comes again, I guarantee that the Adventurer's Guild Headquarters will ask Hans to start the preliminary round."
"Preliminary? You mean the title preliminaries?" Louis' eyes lit up, "Doesn't that mean we can participate in the competition this year?"
Alice nodded: "The titled strong have a privilege in the Adventurer's Guild, and this privilege is very important to me."
"If you are interested, you can also participate."
"After all, this is one of the few rare opportunities for the Adventurer's Guild to bleed heavily."
Louis' eyes lit up, and he felt the great sin of greed stirring:
"What do you mean?"
Beatrice said, “It’s the right to choose the Adventurer’s Treasure House.”
Alice nodded.
"treasure house?"
Louis' eyes brightened.
Nothing could stop him from pursuing wealth.
"I'll join in!"
He said without hesitation.
Alice's lips curled up into a playful smile:
"Louis, do you know what the prerequisites are for participating?"
Louis said: "I have heard that the minimum professional level required for a titled strongman is LV11, which means that you must be at the paragon level to compete."
Alice raised her eyebrows:
"Although everyone can participate in the title preliminaries, if you want to compete for the title of 14451, you must complete a great deed within this year and be promoted to the paragon level."
Louis nodded: "I know."
Seeing Louis' calm expression, Alice was really surprised: "So confident, breaking through to the Exemplary level in one year?"
Louis frowned and said:
"It's a bit troublesome indeed. Maybe I should try harder."
Alice's mouth opened slightly.
This guy is really getting better and better at pretending.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems quite normal.
It has only been about half a year since Louis started practicing.
In more than half a year, he was promoted from LV1 to LV8. This was something that had never been heard of or seen before.
They are not those lucky ones who directly inherited the professional level of their predecessors through chance encounters.
Although Louis had a lot of tricks during his growth, overall, he was able to grow to this level relying on his own talent.
There are 11 months left in this year, so it seems reasonable for Louis to upgrade another 3 levels within 11 months.
...What a ghost!
This growth rate is simply outrageous.
I have been fighting with him frequently in the past six months, and I have become accustomed to it. I have even forgotten how fast his improvement is.
I don’t know if it’s because she’s been with this guy for too long, but now she actually thinks that improving her career level is a matter of course.
…
Several days passed in a flash.
On this day, Louis, who was outside catching the dead and playing the game of Elimination Chamber, received a message from Beatrice.
The Enther Empire, the Lockeshi Empire, and the East and West Monai Kingdoms conducted a joint investigation.
They have been able to confirm that what is approaching the Star Continent this time is not the Shadowfallen Underworld, but the Shadow Plane in a broader sense.
The four countries that confirmed the news prepared to unite and launch an operation to encircle and suppress the shadow monsters.
It was just something that was expected, so Beatrice wouldn't send anyone to inform him.
"Hiss, are we going to start the Four Kingdoms Spring Hunt?"
Louis felt his cheeks getting sore.
Logically speaking, this incident should have caused quite a stir.
There should be a general description in the future diary, or at least some relevant information, right? But he didn't see any relevant content.
这说明什么？ 要么这事对IF线里的自己不值一提。
要么就是故意有所隐瞒，生怕发生变数。
当然，还有最坏的一个可能。
那就是，原本的未来并没有发生过阴影位面和群星大陆亲密接触的情况。
前两种也就算了。
如果是后一种，那路易就要多做点准备了。
“嗯？阴影位面发现了一处不知名的神庙遗址？”
路易拿着送过来的情报纸张，皱了皱眉。
按照情报上说，已经有十几个调查人员陷在里面了。
好在四国也不是没有能人。
破解神庙遗迹的人已经有相关思绪了。
想必很快就能将周边的守护结界破解，救出里边的人了。
“威廉，看样子我们要外出一趟了。”
四国联合行动是一回事。
最重要的是正如艾莉丝猜测的那样，冒险者公会参与到了这次活动之中。
“是，公会那边已经定下来了。”
威廉认真地说：“和我们之前猜测的一样，这次冒险者预赛已经被确定下来了。”
“不过四国那边要求所有参与封号冒险者预赛的成员，必须要听从四国安排的制定路线行动。”
“否则冒险者公会会被排除在外。”
路易思索片刻：
“和突破神庙那边有关系，对吗？”
威廉点了点头。
这世界魔法繁荣昌盛。
以人为核心，展开的魔法阵也不少。
不过这需要法师技术极其高超，还要求法师背后的国家拥有足够强大的国力。
就说个很简单的道理。
恩瑟帝国提诺城的终极防护屏障【两界法阵】，能够短时间将城市周边屏障变成通往异次元的大门。
这样一来，无论数量多么巨大的常规攻击，都会在瞬间被转移到其他世界。
而这个法阵，靠的就是提诺城日复一日的“人气”。
以街道为法阵纹路。
以来往行人残留的人气为催动能源。
以白塔为法阵核心。
以此展开的难以想象的巨型法阵，堪称是战争利器。
所以四国要求冒险者公会的冒险者们按照指定地点移动，路易就怀疑他们想做类似的魔法阵了。
这可是相当高级的仪式魔法。
……
没有多久，消息传来了。
地点定下来了。
在洛克希帝国周边，存在着面积巨大的阴影通道。
不过这战场的主力军还是四国的军队。
冒险者公会更像是那种被喊过来分担压力的组织。
而这通道的地点，位于浊云山脉中部的群山之间。
冒险者公会内部已经通报消息了，之后想要参与封号冒险者预赛的人员，必须要在规定时间内前往当地展开春猎。
否则就当作是自愿放弃本次活动的参与权。
当然，路易更纠结的是另一件事情。
“时间赶得及吗？我还得去一趟莱恩城。”
是的。
白塔那边已经发布了相关消息了。
莱恩城需要的废料处理设备已经制作完毕了，随时可以发往当地。
这东西发过去后，路易需要配合过去莱恩城那里，展开一次大规模的环境治理工作。
嗯，还是以凯撒的名义。
当然，他过去也不是白嫖。
莱恩城是矿产大城，周边区域有着面积极其巨大，开采极其方便的大规模矿脉。
也因此，那里诞生了相当多的一批特殊金属史莱姆。
现在莱恩城那边，已经收集了一批足够特殊又质量上乘的金属史莱姆。
这些史莱姆都是提供给利姆露进餐的素材。
光是准备花费的人力物力也不小了。
路易本就打算最近几天抽时间过去一趟。
现在看来，恐怕要提前出行了。
……
第二天。
一行人果然提早出发了。
冒险者公会定的时间是12天后的上午。
月下猫猫团全员出行。
是的。
全员。
意思是不仅仅路易、奥莉薇娅、艾莉丝、格蕾丝和威廉。
克里斯、克里恩、克里亚三兄弟也会一同跟去。
当然。
为了保护小天鹅的安全，女仆长露米也会直接跟随。
嗯。
名义上说的是团队一起行动。
但克里斯三兄弟一起去是为什么，懂的都懂。
“咳咳咳~”
小天鹅一经过传送阵来到莱恩城，就开始咳嗽了起来。
上一次她在莱恩城没有呆多久就直接离开了。
因为莱恩城的空气质量确实堪忧。
由于这个世界环境污染治理水平呈现两极化发展的问题，导致这个世界在处理高危废料和低风险废料时，有着极其明显的优势。
但像是水污染、空气污染治理之类的操作，就不太行了。
甚至可以说基本没有。
小天鹅是不太能习惯这个空气的。
好在路易早有预料。
他从次元袋里拿出了几个口罩，先示范性地给小天鹅戴上。
小天鹅摇头晃脑地，一副不让他帮忙的模样。
但路易动作很快，直接给她套上了。
“就按这个操作，直接把东西套上，这样你们呼吸空气也能好受一些。”
小天鹅嘟哝着“才不需要你帮忙”，但还是乖乖地戴着口罩不摘下来了。
路易满意地点了点头。
这种矿产城市的呼吸道疾病巨多。
他还记得前世自己在某工业化城市过了一个冬天，回家的时候，打喷嚏时，擦鼻子的纸都是黑的。
白塔那边的设备不需要自己去操心，会有专门的人去安装好。
不过或许是他这边通过皇室的渠道通知了莱恩城的城市长官，他们刚到了当地的冒险者公会做登记，人家就得到消息过来拜访。
尤其是在见到月下猫猫团的成员时，他们脸上的笑容更灿烂了。
这支小队，平均实力远超正常冒险团。
或者说，实在是高出太多了。
谁家冒险团批量出产典范级啊！ “您就是凯撒先生？还有月下猫猫团的诸位，这里请，莱恩城接下来的事情还得劳烦各位操心。”
看看，什么叫做聪明人。
上来根本不会如同垃圾反派一样直接打脸。
皇室介绍过来的人，人家直接选择“先相信”！ 人家这么给面子，路易也不能为难人家不是？ 哪成想，城市长官开口就说出了让众人震惊的话。
“我们在冒险者公会那边发了有关环境治理的任务，诸位要是有时间，可以去接取一下。”
好家伙。
路易直呼好家伙。
什么叫做会做人？
你人还没来，人家就已经提前在冒险者公会里给你发布了相关任务了。
这种涉及整个城市的大规模环境治理的任务，根本不是正常冒险者能够接取的。
可以说那任务挂在那里，就是“指定交给某个人”的。
如果路易他们能完成这个任务，不仅能额外得到任务奖励的金币，还能额外获得冒险者积分。
那么就是你好我好大家好的一片和谐局面。
如果不行，那这些额外的奖励就只能当作是没有。
路易他们这边也没办法多说些什么。
等他回过神来的时候，才发现自己已经紧紧握住了城市长官的手。
「该死的，提到了奖励，这手就不受控制了！大罪·贪婪误我！」
路易无语凝噎。
但他还是很认真地告诉城市长官：
“放心吧，既然接取了路易殿下的任务，那过来的时候一定帮诸位解决麻烦！”
路易打了个响指。
他身后的背包忽然打开。
里边有一个小小的史莱姆跳了出来。
在众人震惊地目光中。
利姆露的身体在跳到一旁空地时，瞬间切换成了巨型史莱姆形态
城市长官和随行的人员嘴巴微微张大。
“巨、巨型史莱姆？”
有人发出了错愕的声音。
路易笑了笑道：
“安心吧，这巨型史莱姆是可控的，而且作用很大，是净化莱恩城的关键。”
城市长官并不知晓巨型史莱姆的操作，谨慎地询问了一句： “你说的这个净化，应该不是指的将整个城市夷为平地吧？”
路易摇了摇头：
“当然不是，利姆露，给诸位展现一下你的本领。”
那数层楼高的利姆露瞬间发出了一阵奇怪的声音，伴随着一阵吸气声，一道道无形的精神力朝着周边蔓延。
一瞬间，以利姆露为中心，就好像是在周边区域里形成了大片龙卷风。
这些龙卷风相互裹挟着，将大片大片的尘埃云给吸入它身体内。
众人通过利姆露那半透明的身体里看到大量尘埃被挤压成铅灰色石块，大量金属化作液体，在不断旋转。
当利姆露停下来后，众人相当吃惊地看着周边区域。
现在这个时间，莱恩城的积雪已经开始融化。
这些融了一半积雪，混杂着污浊空气和地面的尘埃，变成了一滩乌黑的雪。
当然，那是之前。
Now when they looked around, the surrounding area looked as if it had been cleaned. At first glance, it was in sharp contrast with the area a hundred meters away.
The city governor nodded in surprise.
“That’s amazing!”
"Thank you for the compliment!"
Louis couldn't clean it all at once, but he could reduce pollution in the surrounding areas.
In fact, all we need to do is clean up the heavy local water and soil pollution and use new types of waste treatment equipment.
In about half a year, the environment's self-purification ability will allow the city to return to its former appearance of green mountains and clear waters.
At that time, the city’s subsequent pollution control can be directly handled by the latest waste treatment equipment.
So, to everyone's surprise, Rimuru began his diligent career in environmental management.
Today, Rimuru's metal manipulation has completely turned into another method of control that Louis cannot understand at all.
Conventional metals and non-metals are all within its control range.
It even includes a lot of elemental power.
certainly.
Future Diary is not a fixed system panel, and it will not remind Louis what Rimuru's skill has become now.
But through the Greedy Overlord, Louis could clearly feel the uniqueness of this skill.
Moreover, because both man and pet possess the same skills, Louis can further amplify Rimuru's abilities.
In the blink of an eye.
Two days passed.
The Moonlit Cat Group was divided into two groups.
The men formed a group and followed Louis to clean up the surrounding pollution.
The women formed a group and took on the city's unique missions on their own, earning adventurer points everywhere.
When Rimuru turned into a large dough and swept directly from the downstream of the river in Ryan City to the upstream, the originally dirty river became clean and clear.
After climbing over the dirty land, the surrounding ground has turned into a normal, healthy soil color.
They even went to a mine.
If Rimuru crawled over any area of the mine that had not been cleaned up, he could easily clear out the pollution.
This speed is too fast.
It was almost time and Louis found it a little unpredictable.
"Hiss... this is a bit too exaggerated."
Louis was reluctant to use the dimensional bag Beatrice gave him to store the metals and pollutants that Rimuru had re-extracted.
William did it for him.
Anyway, after Rimuru crawled for a distance, he directly spit out a piece of mixed waste and the re-extracted metal block.
William followed behind and helped Rimuru pick it up along the way.
What? What do you think Louis is doing? Louis is lying on Rimuru with his eyes closed.
joke.
Is it possible for Rimuru to accomplish such a delicate task as directly extracting pollutants?
Louis is its brain!
Through Rimuru's perception and Louis' analysis, a lot of pollution was successfully cleaned up directly.
Of course, as Louis used it more, his thoughts began to deviate in other directions.
Being able to control metals, elements, and even air, there are so many ways to play.
The first person to become unlucky was a poor monster outside the city of Ryan.
Louis directly used his own precise control ability, combined with Rimuru's material manipulation, to directly extract the blood from the monster's body at the moment he injured it.
Yes.
Just like a vampire
In an instant, he blew through the opponent's wound and beat him into a pulp.
However, the combat efficiency was still too low, which made Louis very dissatisfied.
So he started to play tricks.
Greed's Grasp has not been used many times so far.
Louis thought it was a harvester for cutting vegetables, but it was a bit of a waste to use this ability when fighting against opponents of similar strength.
But if it is not used, it feels like it is gathering dust.
But now he has found the correct way to deploy this skill.
just.
He collected a huge amount of metal in the city of Ryan.
These metals are metal residues that remain in the surrounding areas due to poor smelting standards, turning the surrounding areas into polluted areas.
They are distributed in the soil around Ryan City and are extremely difficult to clean up.
According to everyone's original thinking, these metal pollutions can only be metabolized by the environment over a long period of time.
Now Rimuru is recycling these metal residues.
These metals were transformed and made into a large number of weapons under Louis' control.
Of course, because of Louis's bad taste, he even specially condensed these weapons into the shapes of various weapons in his memory.
What about Frostmourne, Zangetsu, Sharktooth, Thor's Hammer...
He reproduced all the weapons that had appeared in various movies and animations that he could remember their appearance.
Then the remaining extra weapons turned into various swords with fine patterns.
Later, as the number of swords he engraved increased, he simply used the appearance of the Brave Sword as a template and engraved hundreds of swords.
Then……
"The King's Treasury!"
Louis stretched out his palm.
The next moment, the various weapons that he had taken out from the dimensional bag with his mental power, under the traction released by the Greedy Grip, turned into a storm of sword blades and poured towards the wolf pack in front.
These young demon wolves had never seen such a scene before and were terrified.
Almost in an instant, a large number of magic wolves were severely injured and wounds appeared on their bodies.
Then……
The next moment.
Rimuru’s [Metal (Matter?) Control] and Louis’ [Greedy Grasp] were activated almost at the same time.
Amidst waves of wailing, large amounts of blood gushed out from the monster's wounds.
In just a few breaths, the monsters stopped breathing.
Large amounts of blood were drawn into the air to form a huge blood-colored sphere.
The midday sun shone on the huge blood-colored sphere, casting a strange red light, which was reflected on Louis' armor.
At this moment, he looked more like a dark night noble who played with blood than a knight.
Looks full of evil.
Louis frowned.
He is a great and glorious person and doesn't want people to have any misunderstandings.
So he decisively cancelled the control of the blood balls, letting Rimuru swallow them and digest the monsters’ bodies. Chris said: “Your Highness really…”
