Lost plane, underground military base in the Silver Sand Desert.

All in all, Rosen stayed in the demiplane for less than three months. Considering that there is a 1,000-fold time torrent in the demiplane, less than three hours had passed in the main plane.

In such a short period of time, and with the remote control of the puppet emperor, the entire Natural Empire did not notice the absence of the emperor at all.

Soon after his return, Rosen integrated into the empire calmly and once again firmly grasped the empire's highest power.

However, he still encountered some minor troubles.

In the secret room of the base, the two Adelas looked at each other, and no one spoke.

Patnaros sat next to Adela's body, looking at Rosen with a playful look, with a gloating expression as if to say "I'll see how you end up".

"Ahem~~"

Rosen coughed lightly and said, "The two ladies are already aware of the specific situation."

"What I want to say is that I like both ladies very much. If you don't mind each other's presence, then I will mind even less."

"Of course, if you mind, the main plane is very large, and my natural empire is not small either. I can completely prevent the two of you from ever meeting each other."

The goddess of life, Adela, looked at Rosen speechlessly and said, "Your Majesty, don't you think this is strange?"

"It's a bit strange indeed. But I think you can totally regard her as your twin sister, right?"

Adela, the Daughter of Life, could accept it.

"That's true. But the really weird thing is that even though we are already independent individuals, when we get close to each other, there is still a resonance of souls that cannot be ignored."

"I can vaguely sense her thoughts and emotions, and I believe she can also vaguely sense my thoughts, right?"

The goddess of life, Adela, nodded: "That's right."

Rosen's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Ah~~ Wouldn't it be wonderful if the three of us had fun together?"

The Daughter of Life couldn't help but scold: "Your Majesty, you are always such a bastard!"

The Goddess of Life was also very speechless. After thinking for a while, she said, "Just be a familiar stranger for the time being. I still have many warriors who need to be treated, so I'll go and get busy first."

After saying that, she turned and left.

This also reminded Rosen.

Although the trouble in the demiplane was resolved, the war in the main plane had only ended for less than three hours, and there were still a large number of matters that required decisions to be made by him, the Emperor.

"Come here, arrange for the two ladies to rest."

Then he said to the sisters Adela and Patnaros, "You should get familiar with the environment first. I will come to find you when I am done with this."

The two sisters naturally knew that business was important, and they also knew that Rosen must be very busy, so they nodded and followed the attendant.

The two sisters followed the attendant back to the room. After closing the door, Patnaros sighed, "I didn't feel anything in the demiplane, but when I arrived at the underground base, I truly realized his supreme authority as the emperor of the empire. He simply has the final say."

Adela pulled a chair over and sat down, nodding slightly. "His control over the empire is indeed very strong, far exceeding that of the Dawn Emperor Oletus and our Queen."

This is the difference between a new empire and an old empire.

Not to mention the Dawn Empire that was just completely destroyed, let’s just talk about their Eternal Empire. It is called an empire, but in essence it is a situation of co-governance by the emperor and major families.

Because of the dimensional barriers, the empire has actually been divided into three.

After sighing for a while, Patnaros's face showed sadness again.

"From the details of this military base, it can be seen that the Natural Empire is still a very basic high-energy empire, and is far from being able to fight against the Nightmare Abyss."

Adela casually played with a tumbler ornament on the table and said softly, "His Majesty Rosen will find a way."

Patnaros shrugged. "What can we do? Unless he is a true god."

Adela naturally couldn't explain it clearly, because her words were based on blind trust.

On the other side, Rosen and Tiralilin were discussing the same issue.

"Gurgle~~"

Rosen refilled Tiralilin's glass of light fruit wine and said, "Lilin, the trouble in the abyss has only been solved temporarily, but the root cause is still there."

"One day, we will have to face the abyss army that breaks the seal."

"What do you think about this?"

Tiralilin held the exquisite crystal wine glass and took a sip. Her clear violet eyes were blank for a long moment.

"Your Majesty, first, I have to recover all my lost memory fragments, so that I can give the most valuable advice."

"That's as it should be. I'll have the Dawnguard find it for you."

Tiralilin continued, "According to my current estimate, the Abyss will be able to break through the Planar Stasis Spell in about 100 years. Therefore, the Natural Empire still has 100 years to develop, which is far from enough."

Rosen nodded: "Yes, do you have any ideas?"

"There was a vague idea I called 'Rip-Up'."

Rosen understood immediately, his eyes lit up: "You mean, to create a time torrent area to gain extra development time?"

"That's right."

Tiralilin nodded slightly.

"Of course, the difficulty of this magic is very high. Not only does it require sufficient magic knowledge, but it also requires extremely high quality and sufficient power as a backing."

"According to my preliminary estimate, to build a strong homogeneous time torrent zone with a diameter of 1,000 kilometers and a time acceleration of 100 times, at least 200 kilograms of solar essence will be consumed every day. A diameter of 1,000 kilometers is the minimum size required to develop a high-energy factory."

200 kilograms of sun essence every day is an amazing investment.

Just by listening to it, Rosen felt his scalp tingling slightly, because with the current production capacity of solar essence of the Natural Empire, it can only produce 500 grams a day.

Although we are trying our best to increase production capacity, it will probably take more than ten years and a huge investment of resources to reach 200 kilograms a day.

He couldn't help but ask, "Does the demiplane created by Orletus also consume so much solar essence every day?"

Tiralilin shook her head. "That demiplane is of extremely poor quality, uneven, and far from strong enough. I estimate that only 1 kilogram of solar essence is needed per day. But a demiplane of this quality cannot be used to develop any high-powered abilities."

Rosen understood and took a deep breath: "Then let's do it!"

There is no doubt that this road is extremely difficult, but it is the only one that can be seen at present with a very high chance of success.

In other words, it is the right path.

Taking the right path is always difficult, but once you succeed, the consequences will be minimal and the rewards will be greatest.

Tiralilin showed a trace of relief: "Then your majesty, I will start looking for the lost memory fragments now to improve my memory of fine knowledge."

Rosen nodded: "Okay, I will arrange for you to join the Dawn Guard Corps right away."

After Tilarilin left, he spent several hours dealing with military affairs, and it was not until dusk that he had some free time.

So he stood up and walked quickly to the secret prison built temporarily in the military base.

In the prison were the apostles of the true God whom he had risked his life to capture.

As an emperor of an empire, you must never place all your bets on one chip, but instead take every possible path.

Use both the orthodox and unconventional methods to ensure the highest success rate.

In this regard, Rosen did not feel any moral pressure, because behind him was the entire empire, his family, wife and children, and billions of citizens.

Once he fails, it means losing everything, but once he succeeds, no matter what means he uses, even if it is the most despicable way to achieve success, there will be countless people singing praises for him, and later history books will always give his name a golden border and praise him as the eternal emperor.

The prison has no door and can only be entered through the "Secret Passage Technique".

"Buzz~"

His eyes went dark, and when they lightened again, he was already inside the prison.

The interior was a smooth spherical cavity. On the floor of the cavity sat a woman in a thin dress. She was the Apostle of Joy, Liv, who he had captured.

For safety reasons, the real artifact she carried was placed in another secret room with multiple layers of protection.

In addition, because she is currently in the eleventh ring, her soul, which was originally as high as the 17th ring, has also collapsed to the 11th ring, and she has become an apostle of the true God who has fallen into the mortal world.

Of course, Rosen's soul also collapsed from the 13th ring to the 11th ring, but he carried a large amount of sun essence and was protected by two true artifacts, the Crown of Dawn and the Scepter of Light, so he was not worried about the opponent's counterattack.

After standing still, Rosen looked at Liv carefully.

She is very beautiful, a charming and sexy beauty. Every curve of her body exudes strong arousal. She is the kind of woman who makes people want to take her to bed and have sex violently at first sight.

But Rosen knew very well that this was a poisonous rose, and he had seen too many beautiful girls, so he was not at all disturbed.

Holding the scepter of light in one hand, he stood with his arms folded across his chest and his back against the wall, a faint smile on his face.

"Ms. Liv, give my regards to Ratanaya the Joyer."

Four-fifths of Liv's body was shattered by Rosen. She had just recovered to normal. Having witnessed the opponent's powerful fighting ability with her own eyes, she had unknowingly left a deep impression in her heart that her opponent was invincible.

At this moment, she had no intention of using force to turn the tables, but that didn't mean she was willing to be a prisoner.

She smiled sadly and said in a sad voice: "Your Majesty Rosen, you are truly the most courageous mortal emperor I have ever seen."

"My master once taught us that if we encounter a strong man like you, we should never become his enemy, but try our best to become his ally."

"Therefore, I sincerely apologize to you for my previous reckless behavior. I hope you can forgive my mistake."

"As long as you are willing to forgive me, I am willing to pay any price."

As she spoke, she looked pitiful and fragile.

Rosen watched the other person's performance calmly, without even his heart beating faster.

He told the truth: "I don't like prostitutes, no matter how beautiful they are."

It's not that he looks down on prostitutes, it's simply a matter of personal taste.

He knew that many people liked him because he had strong professional abilities, but as an emperor, he had seen too much falsehood and only liked true feelings.

As he spoke, he thought about it and cast a huge time and space binding spell, suspending the opponent's body in the air in a large letter shape.

"I am very curious about your world. Please tell me in detail about the situation in your world."

"Don't lie, because I can see it, and when I do, I'm going to inflict some punishment on your soul that you'll never forget."

"Now, I ask, you answer, do you understand?"

"I understand."

Liv didn't dare to take any chances, because she knew very well that the Pleasantress's charm was not omnipotent. The more knowledgeable a man was, the less effective it would be. And in terms of knowledge, how many mortals could compare to the ruler of the empire?

So, Rosen took out the questions he had asked the blood mage Ackerman and asked Liv again.

Liv answered one by one, and the information she provided was basically consistent with Ackerman. Considering that there was no chance of collusion between the two, it can be considered that this alien information is reliable.

At this point, Rosen is almost fine.

No, it should be said that he still has a lot of questions, but he doesn't think the other party will know.

But driven by curiosity, he asked the question anyway.

"That is to say, mortals can pass through the passage, but true gods cannot."

Liv corrected carefully: "No, it should be said that the power of the mortal world cannot contain the power of the true God."

After she finished speaking, she pointed to the top of her head and said, "If we can open the passage to the Sun God Realm, then the True Gods can come over. This is also the goal that countless True Gods strive for, because the God Realm of this world is very empty and in a state of being ownerless."

Rosen's heart was slightly shocked: "Your master actually told you such information?"

He suddenly realized that he had seen it wrong.

This Apostle of Joy seemed to be a very well-informed person, much more informed than the Bloodmage Ackerman.

It's understandable if you think about it, because the Bloodmage Ackerman is more of a reclusive scholar, while the Apostle of Pleasure is the head of whores, and in many cases, prostitutes and intelligence officers are synonymous.
