The Girls Are All Coveting Me-Chapter 456 - 392: Who Says I’m Robbing the Cradle? You Did It Too
After the consciousness of various world groups realized that this behavior was undesirable, the Bottomless Abyss, which originally rapidly ascended by this method, was besieged by forces from all sides.
Ironically, even the evil-side world group, which in some sense was supposed to be in the same camp as it, is also attacking it.
So now, although the Abyss still tries to expand outward in a frenzied manner, it’s already considered impressive if it can occasionally swallow up a half-plane or sub-plane.
Disassembling a small world might not be achieved even in thousands of years.
Most of the time, Abyssal Demons act like bandits, they harvest from various worlds and leave.
As for trying to shatter a world completely, the possibility is very low.
Chloe asks himself, he hasn’t actually not thought about the path of world destruction.
Given his current strength, most small worlds are no match for him. Even without the Heaven-Reaching Divine Artifact, Chloe, with his current strength, could easily annihilate life on Earth.
But this option, once it emerged, was quickly suppressed.
The reason humans are humans is that they can still use reason to judge the situation, even when they have bestial desires.
This act of world destruction is so despicable that even the richest vocabulary can’t fully describe it.
However, the benefits of world destruction are so significant that, even though some top powerhouses and the world consciousness understand that this approach is like draining a pond for fish, leading the entire Star Realm into endless war and internal strife, such events still occur from time to time.
Often, the existence that triggers world-destroying disasters doesn’t come from outside but originally from the world itself.
When resources are insufficient, they plunder from other worlds; even if producing True Gods is difficult, they can still assemble Angel Class or even True God Class candidates with uniqueness.
"Will you regret it? Waking up to such a situation."
Louis softly spoke to Chloe.
Chloe shook his head, chuckled, and said, "Although I grieve the destruction of those worlds and hate the actions of the worlds that commit such deeds, I won’t unfoundedly think that they died because of me."
"It really has little to do with you," Louis said, "The various world groups have developed to this situation, with clearly defined factions and significant differences. Even without you, the World Group War would inevitably erupt someday, even in the vast Star Realm, as the finite resources are already unmatched by the infinite world development."
"Yes, this war will come eventually, it’s just a matter of sooner or later. Even without the Filthy Sun Demon Monarch or the King of Redemption, there will be others igniting this fuse, and all we can do is win..."
"Hmm, only by beating them badly, making them hurt and afraid, will these guys lower their heads and admit that their actions of instigating war were wrong—even if they don’t feel that way inside."
Peace is never defended by mere rhetoric.
Violence is the basis for ending everything.
Chloe looked at Louis and said, "How long can you hold off on your side?"
"It’s hard to say, mainly because I’m suspicious now that the entity inciting small worlds to kill each other is likely our nominal ally."
"How come? Didn’t you already expect this situation to arise?"
"True, we’ve seen it before after all."
"Hmm, the painful contractions brought by the gears of war, the economic growth that follows, make some people unwilling to halt the steps of war... after all, the dividends of war are too tempting."
"But this has nothing to do with us. We need to consider how to elevate top combat power to its limit, so..." Louis mentioned this matter with some gritting of his teeth, "Can you hurry up and come to the Star Realm?"
"Why, missing me?"
"Missing you to death."
"Wait a minute, is the ’missing to death’ you mentioned literal?"
"Want to beat you to death."
"Damn."
"Damn what? I helped cover for you guys, even crafted weapons on purpose, sent my daughter out, is there a problem with wanting to beat you to death?"
"..."
"Get lost quickly, I’ll first go deal with those little worlds causing trouble. You get up here as soon as possible. If I knew so many petty issues existed outside The Stars, I would never have ascended so quickly back then."
Apparently, although Louis has ascended and become one of the most powerful beings in the Multiverse, he is still bothered by many trivial issues in the Star Realm. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"Got it, got it, hurry up and help out too, I’ll come as soon as I can. Also, I might have to make a move on The Stars here."
Louis alertly asked, "What are you planning?"
"I plan to conduct a large-scale purge of the hidden forces on The Stars."
"You’re referring to the Void Erosion Sect, right?"
"Huh? I don’t even need to say, and you know who I’m going to fight?"
"Aren’t you saying nonsense? I’ve been keeping an eye on the Void Erosion Sect all along."
"Then why not just wipe them out?"
"It’s not that I don’t want to purge, but because behind the Void Erosion Sect stand various factions that want to destroy The Stars, with multiple world groups involved and countless handiwork left by deities.
In such a situation, even if you destroy the Void Erosion Sect, other sects will emerge. Rather than abolishing them directly, it’s better to keep these exposed brats under surveillance."
"Alright, maybe what you say is right."
As long as various forces are determined to buy chess pieces, The Stars can’t be completely cut clean, let alone Louis.
"But the situation is different now, the war is near to breaking out. Clearing them out directly, solidifying the rear, even if various forces can still deploy agents, it would take a long time to develop.
This period should be enough for us to finish the World Group War."
Louis ultimately gave Chloe a clear answer.
Playfulness aside, before the war begins, having direct control over these people instead could limit the disaster to a finite scope.
If you were to actually confront and fight them directly, you’d miss the advantage of intelligence, which could lead to this group coming out and committing indiscriminate killings.
But now that war is about to begin, that Iron Blood sacrificial flag is the best means.
Louis looked at Chloe with a subtle expression and said, "You... take care of yourself, try to gather more allies, and don’t go fighting alone.
Even though you have no real rivals on the Stars Continent now, under sheer numbers, you might suffer a hidden loss."
"Alright, since this matter involves both of us, shouldn’t you lend some effort and tell us just how many trump cards our King of Redemption has hidden on this continent over the past seven thousand years?
If you don’t reveal them, we can’t properly deal with our opponents!"
Louis didn’t want to speak.
Although he originally planned to lay all his cards on the table with his good brother, he suddenly felt irritated upon hearing this guy’s mischievous laughter for some reason.
"I’ll have my daughter give you the list, get out!"
The more he looked, the angrier he got! The more he looked, the angrier he got!
No, can’t hold it in any longer.
Didn’t want to talk to this guy anymore.
Chloe, who was directly thrown out of the Mayer Trading Company by Louis, scratched her head.
It’s been how many years, and Kai’s temper has become much more irritable than before.
But then again.
According to Lilith, after she was born, for a long time, neither her father nor her stepmother had any children.
Especially with Chloe’s three granddaughters... due to various reasons, only the eldest granddaughter Beatrice gave birth to Lilith, and the others haven’t thought of having children until now.
It’s said that firstly, it’s because the situation is unstable, worrying that children might become a weakness after birth.
Secondly, it’s because the harem Kai had opened has its price, and the other two granddaughters instinctively want to avoid having children, focusing all their attention on Lilith.
Now, it turns out, the beloved daughter, pampered since childhood, was directly snatched by an old cow eating young grass.
"Even if you scold me for being an old cow eating young grass, I won’t change because you did it too, Kai!"
He only has these few granddaughters, all swept up by Louis, there’s no need to say who’s the old cow eating young grass.
"Get lost!" Suddenly, from afar, a brick came flying towards Chloe.
It was Louis, who was enraged and made a move.
Chloe, catching the brick, was somewhat speechless.
Louis clearly knew this kind of weapon couldn’t hurt him, but he still threw it over.
...
Only when he returned to the Amber Hall and saw the list Lilith sent over did Chloe feel a bit blown away.
He finally understood why Louis didn’t directly make a move.
Logically speaking, with the hidden foundation the King of Redemption left on the Stars, if fully mobilized, no country could stop them—put simply, 1 vs 1 is invincible, but 1 vs N could lead to a huge mess.
After all, the King of Redemption had left the Stars many years ago, and without being able to physically descend onto the Stars, he lacked the top-tier advantage.
Although all forces still revered the King of Redemption, it didn’t mean his remaining forces held an absolute advantage.
If things were handled recklessly, even the King of Redemption couldn’t prevent Louis’ faction from stumbling.
And the world leaders corrupted by the Void Erosion Sect are embedded in the middle and upper echelons of countries worldwide.
If they didn’t make contact in advance, any abrupt move to capture could lead various powers to believe the forces of the King of Redemption intended to wage war against the nations.
"No wonder Rephya mentioned establishing a Heroic Squad first."
Chloe chuckled lowly.
What does it mean to strongly declare?
A strong declaration means that the Church of the God of Glory and Justice is informing all forces:
[Now, the team we send out has a historic mission to eradicate evil forces rooted on the Stars, comparable to the Demon King.]
If it were the Bright Church, forever playing the antagonist in some past-life novels, it would be one thing.
But the heroes chosen by the Church of the God of Glory and Justice each era aren’t the good-for-nothing heroes in those Japanese-style fantasy otherworld toilet paper stories that dilute the essence of heroism.
They are the true heroes, immortalized in history, like the version from Buried Frellian.
If one generation does this, others might think the Church of the God of Glory and Justice is putting on a show.
But what if the second generation does the same? The third? The fourth? The tenth?
Across over sixty generations, the heroes have never betrayed the name of hero, so what would others think?
And once they reached the pinnacle of fame, after eradicating the last Demon King who brought immense crisis to the world during the late Era of Turmoil, and with no more Demon King Army in the world, the Church of Glory’s choice was...
Yes, they declared to the outside world that, for a long time to come, the Stars no longer needed the existence of heroes.
In times of peril, they live up to the title of hero.
At the peak, they let go of declarations.
For 13,000 years, the Lord of Glory laid a remarkably reliable foundation for the strong declarations of the heroes.
So much so that now, when the Church of Glory rebuilds the Heroic Squad, the first thought from all sides is not that the Church of Glory seeks power, but...
What exactly is the crisis prompting the Church of Glory to need to rebuild the Heroic Squad?
