Louis couldn’t tell whether Ense was righteous or not.
But he did have an idea.
His strength is improving rapidly now. After this battle, he is convinced that there are not many people on this continent who can be his opponents.
In this case, what he needs to consider becomes how to ensure that his allies maintain their manpower.
As I said, you can't escape the responsibilities that you should bear.
And he really wanted to watch and see who would dare to interfere in the process.
As long as this wave of supplies from the Universe Serpent is transported back to various countries, and the talents accumulated by various countries over the years achieve a huge burst of strength, there will be no need to worry about the Abyss Church surrounding and attacking the reinforcements.
If your opponent is strong, and you not only have not made any progress but your strength is declining, then it is equivalent to a major setback in your strength.
This also holds true for chaotic forces like the Church of the Abyss.
If they don't want to become the group of forces that suffer a major setback, they must take control of these supplies.
Otherwise, after other countries have developed, their situation will only become more and more difficult.
——Louis even thought about selecting a representative who did not yet have a demigod from the small countries participating in this battle, getting Enther's support, and training him to become a demigod.
He could actually guess that among the members participating this time, it was unlikely that every force was absolutely clean and had no connection with the Church of the Abyss.
It would be normal even if a subordinate force of the Church of the Abyss disguised itself as a country and participated in this encirclement and suppression.
After all, it is well known that when they are not caught, most of the believers of the Abyss Church are trustworthy in front of outsiders.
"Then let's see who is better."
It would be better if the cardinal sin of jealousy could be directly highlighted, but it doesn't matter if it can't be highlighted.
Everything is still going as planned.
…
Unfortunately, things were calmer than he had imagined.
Louis now fully understands what it means that "good people will surround you when you become famous."
calm!
So peaceful!
He felt that the entire escort journey was so boring that he was about to fall asleep.
"Trouble, I knew there was a traitor." Louis kept talking to Olivia on the other side of the communication crystal, "I have openly invited them to rob me, why didn't anyone take action?"
In the video, the little swan rolled his eyes cutely and said speechlessly:
"With the noise you made, once outsiders knew about it, who would be willing to rob you and wait for the space equipment?"
"Then at least try your best!"
"Working hard and committing suicide are two different things." Olivia blinked and said, "Let alone them. The construction of the Mermaid Empire Trade Port is now faster. The core project is estimated to be completed in the next few days. After that, I can hand over the finishing work to others."
"Is it about me?"
"The Mermaid Empire is afraid that you might have some ideas. At your level, it doesn't matter whether you hide in the Falling Star Sea or not. It just depends on whether you want to cause trouble or not."
"Wow, they are good at taking advantage of opportunities."
"Not only that, do you remember Hinton Han Seck who made a killing from you before?"
"Who? I don't know."
"You forgot that when you wanted to redeem the Mermaid's Tears, someone on the other side offered you a high price and ripped you off. That person's name was Han Ding."
"Oh, I don't care to remember who he is. It's enough to know that he represents the Mermaid Empire and is trying to cheat me out of money."
The game is to punish the whole group.
It doesn't matter who you are, what matters is who you belong to.
But he is in a much better mood now.
After all, the resources of the Falling Star Sea did enrich his military world.
Too much, really too much Even Rimuru was almost full.
Just to tell you a joke, Rimuru, who had always been accustomed to being hungry, ate more and more full with each meal during his days in the Falling Star Sea.
With good food and drink, its strength is also rising steadily.
As a joke, when Louis's career level was raised to LV28, Rimuru's career level had quietly climbed to LV30 as it continued to digest various resources in the Falling Star Sea and cultivate giant slime clones in its specialized direction.
That’s right, the pinnacle of legend.
It's really the result of using all the power of the Falling Star Sea to raise a slime. Even that kind of rare element can be properly replenished in this damn place called the Falling Star Sea.
But it is also reasonable. Rainwater turns into groundwater and rivers and continuously converges into the sea. This means that all kinds of elements will continue to enrich in the ocean over a long period of time.
The Falling Star Sea is the largest inland sea, so it is inevitable that a large amount of resources are accumulated there.
The Mermaid Empire is still too incomplete.
The number of people was too small, and they were unwilling to rely on external forces to develop the ocean, which left him with the possibility of allowing Rimuru to grow rapidly.
But that’s all.
“Rimuru is at a stalemate, right?” Louis looked at Olivia and said, “I can feel that it has not made any further progress for a long time.”
Olivia was also a little distressed when she heard this:
"That's right. I never expected that I would reach my limit so soon."
Louis didn’t think there was anything wrong with Rimuru slowing down.
It would be strange if we didn't slow down.
If it could be raised to the extreme with just the resources of one world, the Kingdom Slime wouldn't have almost become a legend.
Moreover, according to the echelon of life evolution, Kingdom Slime shouldn’t be Rimuru’s limit.
Above demigod, there should be another transformation.
But the fact is, no demigod-level slime has ever been heard of in all these years.
There are demigods among their close relatives.
If no legend has been passed down, it is likely that the requirements for further evolution of the Kingdom's Slime are too harsh, so that this condition cannot be achieved only in the Star Continent, and it is necessary to go outside the stars.
But it's easy to go out, but hard to come back.
Even if a kingdom slime really completed its promotion in the star realm, it would most likely not be able to completely descend into the stars due to a breakthrough in strength.
This is the most reasonable truth that "there are no evolved individuals above the Kingdom Slime".
Louis smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Rimuru still has many opportunities to evolve. He can go to the dungeon, the abyss, or Baator Hell."
Olivia looked at him in astonishment and said, "You are really not afraid of death. You still want to run to those two places."
"Once you become stronger, you'll be able to be confident."
And to be honest, under the leadership of a top group of mages, demigods and even gods are not without the qualifications to fight.
With Louis leading the way, and assisted by a group of Cursed Legion mages who could be resurrected at any time, killing a god was not as difficult as he had imagined before.
"By the way, Olivia, after the matter in the Merman Empire is over, come to the Roxy Empire to find me."
"Why should I look for you?" Olivia rolled her eyes.
She instinctively sensed the ill intention in Louis' words.
Louis did not want to hide his thoughts and said directly: "I can feel that the career bottleneck that has constrained me has disappeared, so theoretically if someone helps me, I will be able to enter a stage of rapid career level improvement in the next period of time.
Olivia, you don't want to slow down Sister Wang's practice, do you? "
Louis said something that confused the little swan, but the hidden meaning was already revealed.
The little swan spat and said, "Who wants to have a relationship with you?"
Louis deliberately lowered his voice and said softly: "But I really miss you a little bit..."
The little swan felt both happy and shy at the same time, but still said in a low voice:
"Who's going to listen to you?"
"So you don't miss me?"
"No, not at all."
"Really?" He pretended to look pitiful.
Olivia hesitated and whispered, "Just a little."
"a little?"
Olivia pouted and said, "It's enough if I just think about you!"
"Hehe, you are worthy of being my little swan."
"Who is your family?"
The two of them were bickering with each other, which made the boring life more interesting.
But soon Louis brought up another topic: "I told Beatrice that when I get home, I will quickly organize a group of people to launch a decapitation operation against the great sin of jealousy. We cannot let that guy live any longer."
Olivia nodded.
This matter was a rule that had been determined long ago. The growth rate of the Great Sin Jealousy was not much slower than Louis, but he was the opposite of Ensher. If he was allowed to continue to be active, God knew what he would become.
…
Location: Quiet forest and surrounding Golden Township.
"Ahem, how, how is it possible..."
An elf spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at the scene in horror.
In front of him was a forest engulfed in flames.
The tranquility of the past was torn to pieces by the flames.
He turned around and saw a scene of corpses everywhere.
Every inch of land was soaked with the blood of compatriots, and on the mountain of heads, a figure riding a white horse stood at the top.
He looked down coldly at the scene below and calmly gave his verdict:
"From now on, the Quiet Forest will no longer exist."
"Devil, what have you done to my descendants!"
An angry roar was heard, and in the forest, a majestic tree man rose from the ground like a mountain.
Its body is so huge that even the deep-sea monsters, which are always known for their huge size, are only as big as its toes in front of it.
That's a moving mountain.
The strongest in the Quiet Forest in the past and present, the LV40 peak demigod elf, Mosanka of [Mountain].
The boundless power of the earth gathered in its body, making it like a god at this moment.
Once a punch is thrown, nothing can stop it.
But the figure in the sea of blood and corpses smiled coldly: "Boring."
A dark light emanated from the bone sword he was holding tightly, submerging everything in front of him in a terrifying manner.
The world was silent at this moment, and after a moment, the sound of mountains collapsing was heard.
The earth is shaking.
The living are crying.
A crack appeared on the ground, spreading deeper into the forest in the distance.
The figure looked at Mosanka, who was torn into pieces in an instant, and said calmly: "I was born a demon, the terminator of disasters, the horn of doomsday."
"Why?" The mountain's Mosanka spoke calmly. He was not angry about the exhaustion of his life, but he was puzzled. "According to fate, you should not be here now, Demon King...Helmer."
"Who knows?" The white knight named Demon King said coldly, "Besides, when will it be someone else's turn to comment on my fate?"
The life force of the mountain's Mosanka quickly faded, and he left behind a sentence with an inexplicable meaning:
"We are all pawns. When did you ever think you could transcend?"
The roar sounded again, and Mosanka's mountain-like head flew high up and fell to the ground.
The terrified high elf stared blankly at the desolate scene, and finally couldn't help but let out a wailing sound.
"His Majesty!!!"
He pounced on it without hesitation.
However, he didn't expect that the moment he pounced, the huge bone sword would nail him to the ground.
"Who allowed you to look up and watch the fight between kings, you bastard?"
Helmer's horse hoof kicked the opponent to the ground.
He said coldly: "Or do you think I can't smell the lingering fragrance hidden on your body?"
The elf whimpered in pain, and hideous lines of flesh and blood squirmed at the pierced wound.
The next moment.
The elf transformed into a dark shadow and rushed to Hermo with the force of thunder.
His bulging muscles made him look like a balloon. The bone knife pulled out of his body flashed with a sharp cold light. With one cut, the sky was clear.
Helmer was slightly stunned for a moment, then laughed and said:
"Okay, okay, now I allow you to look up."
His actions were faster than his words, and the terrifying long sword finally aroused his interest.
So Hermo took action again.
The huge bone sword turned into a violent storm, fighting with the opponent's bone knife.
After a long time, a flaw seemed to appear on the elf, and the time it took for the flaw to be exposed was measured in milliseconds.
But in such a short time, it turned into the bell that led the elves to death.
The bell is ringing!
Blood is flowing!
The elf's body lost strength and it staggered to the ground.
Helmer looked at the elf that was gradually losing its vitality with interest. Feeling the spiritual fluctuations hidden in the corpse, he suddenly laughed: "I overestimated you. You have such poor combat experience, but you have skills far beyond your cognition. It turns out that you stole them."
“I…ah…!”
The elf's voice was interrupted again, and an extremely filthy power continuously flowed into his body along the bone sword.
"Compared to Pride, you are as weak as an ant. I thought that even if the other deadly sins were not stronger than him, they were not much worse. But now it seems that you... are not the same kind of existence."
A cruel smile appeared on Helmer's lips.
The battle with Pride overturned his understanding of the existence of demigods.
Even he couldn't understand where that terrifying power came from.
He is the chosen one of God, he is the only one, he is a nobleman under the four gods, and he is the supreme monarch of the dungeon.
But all of this was ruthlessly trampled upon by arrogance.
He subconsciously touched the front of the armor. Under the carefully crafted artifact armor, there was a scar that went deep into the bone marrow and had not completely disappeared.
That was what the brave man left for him before he grew into the strongest.
The stormy man laughed and said, "Your hopes will be ended by that guy" before he died at his own hands.
He scoffed at the time.
Even the brave warrior with the ability to restrain himself couldn't really hurt him, so what about others?
When the day comes when he rides a white horse and ascends to the top of demigod, the horn of doom will be blown.
——Until he met that man.
What a terrifying yet exciting existence it is.
Without hesitation, he abandoned the orders of the Four Gods and fought together with them.
I must experience the charm of the seven deadly sins.
But after two moves, he fell in a pool of blood, and suddenly remembered his dream of "reaching the top of the world".
I used to think that dreams were illusory. Who dares to claim to be invincible?
But now, he finally saw the entity that reached the summit.
Behind him is the end of the sky.
At this point, he retreated back to the underground city and did not come out for a hundred years.
The great sin of arrogance, what a grace that is!
But now look at it again...
"They are both grave sins, jealousy. You are so...weak!"
"It's not arrogance that's strong, it's him!"
Seeing Envy, who had been tainted by him and turned into a corpse demon, standing up again and removing his disguise, he sneered:
"Then go ahead and clear the way for him! Announce to the Emperor that the war between him and me has begun again!"
