Soon, Louis heard bursts of knocking sounds coming from the volcanic forge.

The trolls were helping the skilled craftsmen of the Enther Empire to try to further strengthen and upgrade Alice's exclusive martial arts.

Rimuru's control over everything certainly makes it easy for him to forge all kinds of magical weapons, but if he wants to create groundbreaking equipment, he still has to rely on human exploration.

"Your Highness, the plan we set previously has basically been achieved. Do you want to go and take a look at the scene?"

Louis nodded and walked forward to take a look.

Wow! Good guy, although this weapon is not as good as the Wanhua Sword Pill, it is worthy of being the exclusive weapon prepared by the Ashford family specifically for Alice.

After combining the Ruby Guard's exclusive equipment blueprint, the improved scimitar continuously unleashed destructive power under the scorching flames.

After all, she is his own friend, so Louis is willing to prepare some good materials to help her upgrade her equipment.

Biometal?

Put it together!

The remains of the great demon of desolate bones?

Put it together!

Some rare scraps left after making a magic weapon? Put it together!

Call upon a group of skilled craftsmen who are good at casting, and prepare various improved equipment drawings for them to use as reference.

Originally, Louis had the intention to try to develop a new system in the direction of divinely cast equipment.

As soon as the blueprint of Alice's exclusive equipment came out, he naturally set his eyes on it.

And now is the day when the equipment is completed.

A roar was heard, and as the forged weapon sank into the water for tempering, a large amount of water mist filled the air. When it was pulled out again, a sword blank emitting a sharp cold light had already taken shape.

As for the rest of the process of adding the handle, Louis himself activated the Control of All Things to complete the shaping.

Holding this weapon, a hint of surprise flashed in Louis' eyes.

"nice one."

Louis, who already possessed the Wanhua Sword Pill, called it a good thing, which made the craftsmen on the side show happy expressions.

"Your Highness, the Ruby Guard's exclusive equipment can enhance divine abilities. You can try to see the power of the gift, which can be considered a replica of divine magic."

A craftsman reminded.

Louis nodded.

There are three kinds of gifts from the Goddess of Wealth.

Louis' most commonly used skill is his sense of wealth.

This effect can well perceive the value of the item itself.

However, this ability cannot be enhanced by exclusive equipment.

The moment Alice's equipment came out, he felt the value of the new equipment far beyond ordinary equipment.

So before it was even used, it had already determined that the casting of this equipment was successful.

[The Power of Money] and [A Big Throw of Gold] are both equivalent to using divine magic.

He gave up the [Golden Throw] without hesitation.

Pulling out a full-break attack with a gold throw would consume 1,000 gold coins forever! He would never do such a thing for a test.

Unless someone helps him pay for the loss.

But [the power of money] doesn’t matter.

The 200% critical strike effect has already been fully stacked, and to use this gift next time, he only needs to consume the divine power given to him for free by the Goddess of Wealth.

So he acted without hesitation.

After this blow was delivered, Louis' eyes lit up.

The critical damage becomes 280%!

This bonus is not small.

A 200% critical strike effect is equivalent to a 40% increase in the effect of divine magic (80%/200%=40%).

This percentage-level increase is already very exaggerated.

Without saying a word, Louis activated the Control of All Things.

The newly cast weapon instantly melted into a pool of liquid.

The craftsmen present all showed sad expressions.

The unparalleled divine weapon that had just been built melted away just like that.

Some people even began to stagger and could not stand steadily.

But they knew why Louis did it.

Nowadays, the sophistication of human weapon forging is far from comparable to that of Rimuru, who has control over everything.

Although Rimuru was sent back to the Falling Star Sea to help Olivia build an overseas military base~bah, overseas trade area, he also has control over everything.

Although he couldn't control it at any time like Rimuru due to insufficient magic power, he could still forge a single-person equipment.

During the re-melting process, he gradually mastered the way the effects of the divinely cast equipment worked.

The next moment, the equipment that had turned into liquid condensed into shape again.

This is equipment that Louis reshaped based on his own understanding.

Although it has a similar appearance to the previous equipment, he knows that after its own optimization, the amplification effect of this equipment has been further increased.

He took the new equipment in his hand again and used the [Power of Money].

The scimitar sent a sonic boom through him.

"310%? Is the increase in divine power reaching 55% the current limit?"

The faces of the skilled craftsmen who were listening to Louis sighing turned dark.

Someone said dryly, "Your Highness is awesome. He has increased the performance by 15% in one go. He is much better than old things like us."

"Suddenly I feel that this skill is so ridiculous." Another craftsman sighed, obviously feeling deeply hit.

In the field of equipment bonus, let alone 15%, every additional 1% is a major breakthrough.

Even if the equipment is legendary and used by two people of equal strength, the user of equipment with a 15% increased damage versus the user of equipment with a 20% increased damage, the former may go from being evenly matched to being defeated within a few minutes.

From an increase of 40% to an increase of 55%, this is equivalent to skipping three major stages.

How long did it take His Royal Highness Louis? Less than 10 breaths.

What a suffocating gap this is.

Louis keenly sensed the disappointment of the crowd and suddenly said:

“All the credit for exploring this new route goes to you all. All Things Control can only increase the effect of the equipment to the theoretical maximum value of the current design.

But how much you can improve depends only on how much you have improved in the field of equipment casting.

Everyone, without your hard work, there would be no new version of God-forged equipment. Celebrate, this is not my victory, but the victory of all of you. "

As soon as these words were spoken, the depressed mood at the scene instantly rose.

The craftsmen's faces were filled with smiles again.

Of course, some people were merely comforted, but some younger and more thoughtful craftsmen began to think about one thing.

In the past, when they forged equipment, the first thing they considered was whether they could make it successfully.

But Lord Rimuru and His Highness Louis used their own strength to tell them that forging is not the biggest problem now, but how to improve the level of equipment design is the biggest problem.

"Perhaps we should really shift the focus of weapons research from simple manufacturing to the improvement of design theory, as His Majesty Louis said."

Louis didn't know what the craftsmen were thinking.

He had already packed up his reforged equipment and was ready to leave the demiplane to find Alice.

Before leaving, he saw that Weir's hands had left the lightsaber. She had obviously completed the absorption of the first round of experience and was closing her eyes to continue recalling the details of the Heavenly Sword Realm.

There would be no benefit for her to continue absorbing the crystals of the Heavenly Sword Realm.

After absorbing it once, summarize the difficult points that you don’t understand under your own guidance, and then continue to practice and improve. It is the right way to absorb it again after reaching the limit.

Anyway, the Heavenly Sword will only be used by her now.

…

After leaving the demiplane, Louis left Weir at the training ground to continue to sort out his experience, while he got up and went to look for Alice.

Alice hasn't been staying with her during this period.

In the end, she couldn't escape the pursuit of her brothers. Although they didn't take her to a blind date, they took her directly to the Purgatory Wolf Adventure Group.

That was an adventure group directly controlled by the Ashford family, and many forces believed that it was Enther's secret black glove.

In response, Louis, who had already taken control of the Enther Empire, expressed serious dissatisfaction.

What a joke, how could the Infernal Wolf be Unser's black glove?!

They are Eun-seol's white gloves! They are openly displayed on the table.

But when I got there, I saw the crazy beauty from the past sitting dejectedly in the hall where the adventure group was accommodated.

Seeing Louis coming over, she raised her head reluctantly:

“Here I come.”

"Well, it looks like you're in a much worse condition than I thought."

"Tsk, didn't you know that a long time ago?"

"Knowing and seeing are two different things. It looks like you've been tormented quite a bit by your brothers."

Alice's face darkened. Louis sat down by himself, poured himself a cup of tea and said, "Don't look at me like that. I didn't force you to go on a blind date."

Alice sighed: "Don't mention it. My brother and his friends are so anxious that they want to send the young warriors from their adventure group to date me."

"Oh, sure, no wonder you're so angry."

The leader of the Purgatory Wolf Adventure Group is the Ashford Family. There are many elite members from the Ashford Family branches in the group, and even some noble children who were sent over from the ruthless aristocratic groups to be severely trained by the Purgatory Wolf elders.

How should I put it? Judging from the missions accepted by the Purgatory Wolf Adventure Group, the noble children who have been able to follow the Ashford family to complete combat missions and survive to this day can indeed be regarded as the chosen ones of heaven.

As if she had noticed Louis's thoughts, Alice said with a sigh:

"They are so weak, and they are still dating me. Do you think it's appropriate?"

"Can't you find some little puppies who are more obedient and well-behaved?"

Although she had never heard of the term "little milk dog", Alice thought about it for a while and combined it with the context to understand what Louis meant. She said speechlessly:

"I don't like this. I have nothing in common with you."

"What kind of thing can you and I have in common? I can help you?"

Alice looked Louis up and down and chuckled, "It's not suitable for people who have common topics."

Louis hesitated for a moment and pointed at himself: "You mean me? Captain, if you look according to my standards, are you sure you can find it?"

Alice spread her hands and said, "No, you're too fickle. It's not suitable. I don't need to be as strong as you, but people of the same age should at least be stronger than me."

Louis' mouth twitched slightly: "Your condition is too much, let alone Enser, even if you look at the entire continent.

At your age, you can count on your fingers the number of people who have this kind of ability. "

Alice's expression became visibly annoyed: "Don't bring up such an uncomfortable topic. Let's talk about something happy. What are you doing here today? Are you here to see me or my brother?"

"Looking for you."

"Wow, it's rare to see this."

"No, don't you feel like you've forgotten something?"

"Forget what...hiss, you mean?" Alice jumped up excitedly, her magnificent snow child trembling slightly, "Is my equipment ready?"

"How do you want me to answer you?"

“It’s done, and it’s done very well.”

"Good," Louis chuckled, "It's done. Very well done. Use this weapon well. It is much more useful to you than many demigod-level weapons."

He snapped his fingers, a space crack opened up, and a scarlet scimitar fell into his hand.

"Here you go. I reshaped it myself. It has a 55% bonus to divine magic effects, excluding the effects of divinely forged equipment. It is also a top-notch legendary weapon. You are blessed."

Demigod weapons are impossible.

Alice dared to use it, but Louis didn't dare to give it to her.

In fact, even for the Cursed Legion, the popular equipment is "just" legendary weapons and legendary armor.

Those demigod-level equipment are basically made for special reasons.

For example, the demigod equipment of the White Crow Legion Commander was improved and evolved from the demigod equipment he already had, and it was not free.

But even if it is legendary equipment, Alice still can't let it go.

"45%? Are you kidding?" She excitedly put her arm around Louis' shoulders. "When did you become so generous?"

Louis pushed her away with a look of disgust: "Did you not have time to clean yourself up after training with your brothers? You smell like sweat."

"Bullshit! My cloak is permanently enchanted with a cleaning magic effect, so how could it smell like sweat?"

Although her words were harsh, she did not look angry at all.

Louis didn't respond.

Alice really doesn't have any smell.

Although it doesn’t have the pickled aroma of the heroine in Mary Sue novels.

But he was a married young man and it was not appropriate for him to show intimacy with other women.

Alice didn't get annoyed, she just said happily: "Does it have a name?"

"No, you take it?"

"Ah? Me? Is it appropriate? This is legendary equipment."

Louis said calmly: “The legendary equipment you mentioned is on a hill in the Soldier’s Tomb.”

He was not at Versailles.

He is telling the truth.

Jianmen Mountain is covered with legendary equipment. If outsiders saw this, they would not only be terrified, but would also suspect that Enser wanted to go to war with the whole world.

Now this situation can be concealed.

Although the Cursed Legion had already fought two regional wars with the Roxy Empire, due to the lack of comparison samples, Roxy felt that the Cursed Legion was a bit too strong, but mainly suspected that Sin and Wrath had given the legion too much power.

——They did not immediately suspect the iteration of the Cursed Legion’s equipment.

But this situation did not last long.

As the Cursed Legion begins its battle with the dungeon and the abyss, everyone will witness this unprecedented legion.

There is no doubt that no legion so far has been able to reach the level of the Cursed Legion.

Each person has a set of legendary equipment, which is enough to compete with any top extraordinary army in history, and they are also immortal...

Louis now wants to see how much damage his subordinates can inflict when Herme comes out of the dungeon.

It doesn’t matter if I can’t hide it for too long.

As long as they can keep it secret until the day Helmer comes out, after seeing the unprecedented wave of dungeon monsters, any country will only hope that the Cursed Legion can become a little stronger.

"Let me remind you, Captain, that the foundation of this equipment is built according to divine tools. Once you have collected enough resources, you can upgrade it step by step to a divine weapon of divine tool level, so you can be a little wild when naming it."

"Really?" Alice showed a cruel smile, "Then let's call it Alice's Blade."
