"belch!"

Rimuru slowly returned to his master and burped.

Louis looked at his magical pet in silence.

It doesn't have digestive organs or esophagus like the stomach and intestines, so why would it need to burp?

I guess he saw some of them burping while eating, so he just followed their example.

However, with this wave of sapphire dragonets delivering a feast, I'm afraid Rimuru will undergo another transformation.

At least Louis could feel that a new power was taking shape within him.

It is the power of the jewel dragons.

Louis felt his throat itchy.

This is the [Greed Ruler] replicating the changes in Rimuru through the contract.

No one knows what he and Rimuru will gain in the end.

While he was lost in thought, the sling in his hand never stopped.

The big bird turned around, and a pebble directly exploded a zombie transformed by an adventurer.

Just as he was about to fire again, he discovered that all the zombies at the scene had been killed.

Hiss! The number of these living dead must be at least several thousand.

Although the number of several thousand may sound small, a considerable number of high schools have no more than 1,000 students.

Just with these people, when the flag was raised on Monday, the playground was filled with densely packed heads, a huge crowd.

Most of these zombies seem to be local residents and some lost adventurers.

There are even some who were role models during their lifetime.

But a few rounds of charges by the royal guards killed them all without leaving a single soldier.

The head maid Lumi single-handedly suppressed the King of the Living Dead so much that he couldn't even raise his head.

If it weren't for its extremely fast recovery ability, it would have been beaten to death by Lumi.

However, when the royal guards wiped out most of the living dead, even the King of the Dead met the end of his second life.

Louis looked up and saw a large group of people rushing towards him in the distance.

Looking more closely, he saw that it was the adventurer he had hired at great expense.

The zombie tide that suddenly broke out on the Dragon Bone Grassland directly drew these adventurers in, and they had to fight and retreat at the same time.

The leader of the "Whale Swallowing" adventure team, Whale Shark, was determined to rush to the direction of the King of the Living Dead.

As they rushed forward, many adventurers simply joined forces with them and rushed around.

As a result, the group of people grew larger and larger, from a dozen to dozens, and finally to more than two hundred people.

There was a huge group of people. Even if the brains of the living dead were eaten by zombies, it was impossible for them to leave such a large number of "delicacies" running rampant on the grassland.

The group's speed was getting slower and slower.

When the whale shark and its men arrived here, all they saw were corpses everywhere.

"Bud, how many people must have died! It's too late, such a great title is gone just like that!"

The whale shark beat its chest and stamped its feet, wanting to cry but without tears.

At first he just thought that having more people could help share some of the pressure, but he never expected things to change so quickly.

He felt that after hitting so hard, his beheading axe was almost covered with patina.

The head maid glanced at the group of adventurers with a sharp gaze and said directly, "There is still a war in the Smoky Mountains. We are now temporarily recruiting a group of adventurers to accompany us to suppress the living dead. Does anyone object?"

No one said a word.

Louis thought that some of this group of adventurers would not go.

But no one expected that Lumi would directly ride on the big horse pulled by the other guards, take the little swan from the female knight, and rush towards the mountains.

The royal guards followed closely behind, rushing towards the mountains.

Leaving behind a group of adventurers disheveled in the wind.

"Can we really recruit these people like this?"

But before the dust raised by the horses' hooves of the Royal Guards had dissipated, Louis discovered that this group of adventurers looked anxious and worried.

"If I kill 50 zombies, will I have a chance to join the Legion?"

"Organization? Where is the organization?"

"Who would want to be an adventurer when they can join the army?!"

"It doesn't matter whether it's compiled or not. As long as the royal family is involved, the money will definitely not be small!"

The whale shark was stunned and muttered to himself, "This may be my only chance to surpass my ancestors. Bud, isn't this purely tempting me?"

As soon as he said this, Louis discovered that the gazes of the adventurers at the scene had begun to evolve from the throwing tantrums of the Husky to the Snow Wolf King.

Fuck!

Is the reward from the royal family so generous? Louis' eyes began to turn red.

Since adventurers can all get rewards, there's no reason why I, who played a supporting role the whole time, shouldn't get any rewards, right?

When he raised his head again, there was a fire burning in his eyes.

The great sin of greed told him that maybe he could make money from this!

"What are you waiting for? Follow me!"

The group of adventurers finally came to their senses.

With such enormous wealth, how can I fall behind others even a step?

So the adventurers also rushed towards the Smoking Mountains in a mighty manner.

…

A few hours later.

When Louis and his team successfully fought through the wave of the living dead, what appeared before them were two groups of forces that were in a tense confrontation.

On one side is the Royal Guards who have gathered in full armed force.

——Louis even saw the fully armed Kino Kain among them.

On the other side were two giant creatures whose bodies emitted a frightening cold light.

——To be more precise, they should be called "dragons".

The two sides were methodically clearing out the zombies that were madly pouring out of a cave.

But his eyes were always fixed on the other person, as if he was worried that the other person would attack.

Louis took a quick glance at the surrounding battlefield.

The area looked like it had been struck by missiles, with broken walls and traces of chopsticks everywhere.

It can be seen at a glance that our instructor has probably been fighting with the dragon for some time.

But it looks like it's not in good condition.

Soon, all the zombies that emerged from the cave were killed by everyone.

Kino seemed to have noticed Louis' arrival, his face turned pale, and his unhappiness was simply engraved on his face.

Louis blinked.

It seems like the teacher got beaten!

Judging from the appearance, it seemed that he was fighting one against two, and was injured by the sapphire dragon on the opposite side.

He didn't go up to talk about the past.

Today he is the adventurer Caesar, and he is not familiar with Kino!

As if he noticed Louis' gaze, Kino blew his beard and glared.

Angry!

He raised the greatsword in his hand, and a brilliant flame shot up into the sky, then hit the top of the cave like a falling meteorite.

The roar was accompanied by a sudden earthquake, and a giant hole was directly melted out of the ground.

The surrounding area collapsed, revealing a large hole underneath.

Kino noticed that Louis' eyes lit up, and then he snorted and said nothing.

"You little brat, I can't control you?!"

At the same time, as the roof of the cave was overturned, a bone altar underneath the cave was exposed.

On the altar is a magic book surrounded by countless bones.

An obscure and filthy magical power seeped out from the magic book and turned into a black pillar rising into the sky.

Be it the adventurers, the royal guards, or the two dragons, they all showed slight discomfort at this moment.

——Except Louis and Olivia.

For some reason, the filthy magic power rising into the sky had no effect on him at all.

There was no wave in my heart, I even felt like laughing.

The little swan is a bit strange.

The filthy magic power automatically avoided her before it even got close to her.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

The colossus beside Louis said in disbelief:

"We have clearly destroyed the New Book of the Dead!"

When everyone heard this, their faces changed instantly.

Among all the natural and man-made disasters that have occurred on the continent in the past five hundred years, the Mad King’s Bloody Ten Days definitely ranks among the top.

And now, the "New Book of the Dead" representing the Mad King's legacy has appeared again? For a moment, everyone's faces were indescribable.

Some people panicked.

Some people were surprised.

Some people are greedy.

But no one noticed that the whistling sound of the slingshot had already begun.

With a loud bang, the giant slime smashed directly onto the altar.

“Dissolve it, Rimuru.”

Without hesitation, Louis gave an order that shocked and angered some people at the scene.
