Chapter 3515: The Emperor

Cotton-like residual ash fell from above. The weather, which had been cold recently, had warmed up. This should be a chain reaction brought about by repelling the Netherworld forces.

His side won the first round of confrontation, and the Platinum Capital was already scarred, or rather, it wouldn't be long before people forgot the name Platinum Capital.

Between the broken walls of the ruins, Su Xiao stood at the original site of the World Gate. He grabbed a handful of soil from the ground. The dry soil fell through his fingers, and the Netherworld energy mixed in it gradually drifted away and dissolved in the air.

Before, the aggressiveness and attachment of Netherworld energy were extremely strong. Now, not only was the aggressiveness sharply reduced, but there was also no attachment, just like losing the root.

Su Xiao didn't believe that this victory could destroy the Netherworld forces. Their base camp was in the Underworld. This defeat was at most a failure of external expansion and didn't hurt the foundation.

There is one more thing. Just now, when the World Eater group swept past, Su Xiao didn't receive a hint of killing Wuying Solaro.

Su Xiao estimated that the other party not only didn't die but also retreated to the Underworld by some means. As a price, the layout of invading this world completely failed.

The current advantage of his side is that due to Wuying Solaro's retreat, the energy resonance between this world and the Underworld has been interrupted. That is to say, it is difficult for the Underworld to come to his side, and it is also difficult for his side to enter the Underworld.

Before, the Netherworld forces' invasion infiltrated for a total of 10 days before successfully eroding to Pan Duola Star.

Now the initiative is in his side's hands. With the special fate blood of the Son of the World · Laikeli, the time needed for his side to build a channel to the Underworld is not long.

In this way, his side turns from passive to active. As long as they are prepared, they can counterattack the Netherworld forces.

Su Xiao jumped onto the dragon's back. He still had a lot to do afterward. There was a lot of luck involved in repelling the Netherworld forces this time. If he hadn't summoned the World Eater, the result of this battle would have been hard to say.

What's regrettable is that the World Eater wasn't banished to the Underworld. If that were the case, there would be a show to watch.

Barbados spread its wings and flew up, rushing back to the base camp.

The gate to the Underworld cannot be opened before full preparations are made. Once the Underworld Gate is opened, either his side arranges the Netherworld forces, or the Netherworld forces level his side. There is no third choice.

Opening the Netherworld Gate must not be known to the Empire side. Now that the Netherworld forces have been beaten back, whether they will invade again is unknown.

Under such a premise, the Empire is of course unwilling to take risks. They are really tired of the feeling of being caught between two troop-producing flows. That experience was full of fear throughout.

When Su Xiao returned to the base camp, the scene was not optimistic. Nearly half of the 700+ Brutal Turrets were damaged, the upper part of the Hive was pitted, and the entrance was full of corpses of elite Devil Beasts. Of the 10 Titan Giant Beasts, only 4 remained, one of which was smashed to pieces by a sharp weapon.

The one who smashed this Titan Giant Beast was sharp and elegant. According to the message Amu posted in the team channel, this was done by Xiao Fuliya.

【Hint: Your follower · Winter War Cow · Amu has killed Xiao Fuliya.】

【This is a special unit required for the main quest and will have no World Source reward.】

【You obtained Immortal-grade Treasure Chest · Silver Owl.】

【Your optional main quest: Those who know the times (Completion conditions met).】

【Yes/No to complete this optional quest. If completed, you will return to the Reincarnation Paradise within 5 minutes.】

Su Xiao chose not to complete it for the time being. The situation was so good now, it would be a pity to leave. Originally, he thought the loss would be greater, but because the World Eater came out to stir up trouble, his side became the side with a big advantage. Su Xiao suspected that his luck recently was all used on this matter.

Su Xiao walked into the main passage of the insect nest. Large pieces of broken carapaces were scattered on the ground. Just as he expected before, Xiao Fuliya came to attack, preparing to assassinate Jila.

The result was that Xiao Fuliya, with the help of a general attack composed of Corruptors, successfully sneaked near the Hive. No one found her at the time, but she was really unlucky. A Titan Giant Beast near the Hive was blasted by a Soul Wizard, and the resulting plasma shock wave happened to push Xiao Fuliya out of the Netherworld fog.

Logically speaking, a normal assassin type should retreat immediately after being discovered. Xiao Fuliya was not normal. She immediately drew her twin blades and killed her way into the Hive.

Xiao Fuliya succeeded, and also failed. When she arrived at the core place of the Hive, she saw the Winter War Cow holding the Dragon Heart Axe, waiting for her there.

Besides Amu, Aisaia, who had a female appearance, was also there. She could change her gender. When male, she was stronger in single combat; when female, she tended to have mid-range combat methods.

As one of the four Knights under the King, if Xiao Fuliya had faced Aisaia alone, she wouldn't have died, at most the assassination of Jila would have failed.

The problem was that Xiao Fuliya encountered her nemesis, Amu. Besides being particularly resistant to beating, what was on par with it was its deceleration ability.

As long as she was attacked by Amu, even if she used a weapon to block its attack, she would be entangled by that disgusting cold-freeze deceleration effect. This is Amu's own cold-freeze ability, combined with the strong deceleration effect combined with the source-characteristic Dragon Heart Axe.

This deceleration effect had been tested many times. The Feather God, Immortal · Rogesh, Supreme Insect, etc., had all endured this deceleration effect, which shows its high priority.

Xiao Fuliya endured this deceleration effect and had to fight Aisaia, so the result was imaginable.

Before Su Xiao returned, Xiao Fuliya had already been defeated and frozen into an ice sculpture by Amu, waiting for Su Xiao to return to make a decision.

At this moment, Su Xiao had just arrived in the Hive, and Xiao Fuliya died. This was obviously not a coincidence. The other party sensed Su Xiao's aura and knew that there was no way to survive. In order to avoid being extracted for intelligence, she committed suicide after becoming an ice sculpture, exploding into large pieces of broken ice.

Ice mist spread in front. Su Xiao came to the open area in the middle of the Hive. The battle took place here. Amu and Aisaia were both there.

"Sensing you were back, she committed suicide."

Aisaia spoke. As her mental power gathered, the ice chips that Xiao Fuliya exploded into gathered again, forming Xiao Fuliya's appearance in the ice sculpture. This was a slim but not thin female knight. Most of the armor on her body was covered by cloth lining, and the bone mask on her face was covered with cracks.

"I'll go bury her. I admire people with backbone."

Aisaia, who took out a can of orange canned food, walked out, with Xiao Fuliya's ice sculpture floating behind her.

Jila was safe and sound. Su Xiao came to the core of the Hive. Because a large amount of Netherworld energy was filtered out, the Hive core had turned dark green. Fortunately, this color was gradually fading.

The main body of the Ancient Mask was indeed with Undead Sister, keeping Undead Sister in a disguised state, but the Ancient Mask left a tiny part in the Hive to devour the Netherworld power. This is the wisdom of eating.

Now that the Netherworld forces have been beaten back, it is a god-given opportunity for Jila to be promoted to Empress-level. But before that, there is one thing that needs to be settled first, and that is the Empire.

Not to destroy the Empire forces, that is a thankless task. On the contrary, now knocking the Empire for a sum is a better choice for both sides.

The reason for saying this is that this time repelling the Netherworld forces, the Empire side was watching from the sidelines throughout. Under such circumstances, after repelling the Netherworld forces, if the Sun Sacred Nest said to the Empire that both sides would not invade each other and each occupied half of Pan Duola Star's territory, the Empire's high-level officials would have collective insomnia that day.

From a big-picture perspective, such a gentle attitude has only one possibility, which is a sugar-coated bullet, intended to appease the Empire and then destroy the other party after stabilizing the situation.

Su Xiao didn't plan to do this. Not to mention the Empire's own combat power was strong enough, secondly, what benefits could he get after destroying the Empire? The Empire's resource warehouse?

Don't think about it. Before the Empire was destroyed, those high-level officials would take this huge sum of money and run away at the first opportunity, or even leave Pan Duola Star and return to the mother planet · Oukai Star, which was full of Corruptors.

Defeating the Empire could only get 50 million people. What's more headache-inducing is that these people can't be moved. This is the last civilization inheritance of this world. Without them, the reputation leaderboard would close on the spot, and the 5,000 Soul Coin reward every two days, as well as the final eight-star title, would all go down the drain, a huge loss.

Su Xiao only had two eight-star titles, 【Sky-Plundering Shocking Waves】 and 【War Lord】. One can imagine the weight of such a level of title.

In other words, after spending a lot of effort to defeat the Empire, not only would he get no benefits, but he would also have to raise 50 million Imperial citizens. At the current stage, there are no production and work opportunities, so he can only raise them for nothing. If he encounters a group of unreasonable people, it will be even more annoying.

Therefore, defeating the Empire is a huge loss. Conversely, if he knocks a sum now, and then negotiates with the Empire afterward, letting the other party pay a certain price to help them retake the mother planet · Oukai Star, thereby forming a situation where the Empire occupies Oukai Star and the Sun Zerg occupies Pan Duola Star, the Empire side would definitely vote in favor unanimously.

The most critical point is that the Empire's population has plummeted. After retaking the mother planet · Oukai Star, they will not consider expansion within three generations.

The Netherworld invasion only targets the intelligent Zerg. So as long as the Corruptors on Oukai Star are cleared, it will still be blue sky, white clouds, clear water, and green mountains. The resources originally enough for billions of people are now used by 50 million people, which is simply more than enough.

Under such circumstances, what price would the Empire be willing to pay to retake Oukai Star?

Thinking of this, Su Xiao sat cross-legged on Jila's couch, ignoring Jila, who was playing a fighting game with Xiang Bubu Wang and gradually gnashing her teeth. Su Xiao took out the communicator and contacted Monarch Aldin. The communication was connected quickly.

Monarch Aldin opened by saying: "Lord Bai Ye, congratulations on winning this great battle. It has extraordinary significance for all of us."

"Hmm, also congratulations to the Empire for winning this battle at the minimum cost."

Hearing Su Xiao say this, Monarch Aldin on the opposite side was speechless for a while and changed the subject: "Why not come to Nova City for a victory banquet?"

"It's more suitable to hold it on Oukai Star."

Hearing Su Xiao say this, Monarch Aldin on the opposite side stopped talking completely. Seeing this, Bahar beside Su Xiao said:

"Opposite side, we don't want to mock you. If we wanted to mock you, the one who spoke to you first would definitely be me."

As Bahar spoke, his tone became somewhat sarcastic.

"Then what is Lord Bai Ye's meaning?"

Who is Monarch Aldin on the opposite side? After a little thought, he guessed the hidden implication of Su Xiao.

"Pan Duola Star is big, but it can't hold two families."

"It is indeed like this. To tell the truth, the citizens of the Empire miss home very much, but now..."

Monarch Aldin didn't continue, obviously worried that Oukai Star was still maintaining some kind of connection with the Underworld.

After Bahar's explanation, Monarch Aldin understood the whole picture. First, the connection between the Underworld and this world had been broken. Oukai Star indeed still had many Corruptors, but it only needed to clear these dead people, and everything would return to its original state.

After learning the top-secret intelligence about the Netherworld invasion, Monarch Aldin didn't reply immediately. Instead, he had to delay for a while. Those in power are like this; they will never make a decision on something immediately. They must consider most factors before deciding from multiple angles.

Monarch Aldin didn't let Su Xiao wait too long. The other side spent more than an hour verifying the top-secret intelligence just obtained. Monarch Aldin immediately decided to use huge capital to improve the existing space devices and open them to connect with the mother planet · Oukai Star.

The Empire's attitude was obvious. If they could return to Oukai Star, they would definitely not stay on Pan Duola Star for another second. It was truly because they had witnessed the slaughter between the two troop-producing flows and had developed a shadow from watching the battle.

It wasn't that the Empire had no backbone. Any normal force would be like this. The legion combat power that took several generations of hard work to develop was produced by the opposite side in two hours. Anyone would have a buzzing head.

As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind. The Empire's current attitude is basically: return to Oukai Star to live a stable life. From now on, as for the affairs between the Netherworld and the Sun Sacred Nest, they will participate as little as possible.

At noon, on the second floor of the wooden building, Su Xiao had just finished lunch when Xiang Bubu Wang ran in.

"Woof."

"Hmm, bring him in."

"Woof."

Xiang Bubu Wang turned and went downstairs. Before long, Peidi, who was originally a company representative, was fat but had a natural, honest look that made people feel good, arrived.

Peidi was originally a subordinate of the company's largest shareholder, Aitaichi Fuke. Now the company was basically gone, and a group of company executives fled to Nova City before the Platinum Capital fell.

Now the Empire and the company have recombined, or rather, the company's independence was originally intended by the Empire to gather those second-class citizens on the colonial planets who didn't speak, so as not to cause any chaos.

Now the Empire's total population is only over 50 million, so naturally there is no need to engage in this set. Aitaichi Fuke and Monarch Aldin's relationship was also made public. They are cousins. The mutual fighting between the Empire and the company before was arranged by the two brothers in advance. How to trigger it, how to ferment it, and how to end it were all arranged clearly.

Regarding this point, Su Xiao had long suspected. A total of 80 million civilians migrated to Pan Duola Star, 50 million in Nova City, and 30 million in the Platinum Capital. This already clearly stated that the two families were in the same group.

The envoy Peidi who came this time didn't stay long. After some flattering pleasantries, he left in a hurry. Whatever he came to say was secondary; mainly, he brought the Empire's sincerity.

The breeze in the summer afternoon outside the window was blowing slowly. Su Xiao looked at the alloy box in front of him. He refused the Empire's life ore, etc., and changed to demanding strength-enhancing materials. After developing for so long, it was time to reap the benefits.

Su Xiao opened the alloy box. The first thing that caught his eye was the Soul Crystals (Complete) neatly stacked together.

Picking one up, Su Xiao took a bite and tasted it. Hmm, the quality of this Soul Crystal is good.

【You obtained 216 Soul Crystals (Complete).】

Putting away the Soul Crystals (Complete), Su Xiao opened the interlayer of the alloy box, inside which were 12 Soul Crystal Cores.

Without considering the number of Soul Crystal Cores obtained from each super-tier seat banquet, these 12 Soul Crystal Cores were a huge fortune. In the past, killing a world might not necessarily get 12 Soul Crystal Cores.

Opening the interlayer further down, at the very bottom of the alloy box was a withered purple index finger over 20 cm long, a piece of armor fragment covered in dark green rust, and finally a terminal core.

【You obtained Evil God Index Finger (Evil Sacrifice Item).】

【You obtained Nether Emperor Armor Fragment (World-class Item).】

【You obtained C-17 Terminal Cluster Chip (Immortal-grade · Technology-side Item).】

All are good things. Su Xiao first gave the 【C-17 Terminal Cluster Chip】 to Xiang Bubu Wang. This is the highest echelon technology on the Empire side.

Although Su Xiao could also use it, his terminal, besides recording maps, was mostly used for strategy puzzle games to pass the leisure time. Loading an Immortal-grade technological creation like the 【C-17 Terminal Cluster Chip】 was simply a waste.

It's different for Xiang Bubu Wang to use it. Sometimes the things it does can exert the limit performance of this chip.

Su Xiao took out the 【Evil God Index Finger】 from the alloy box. This is a good thing. He checked its attributes.

【Evil God Index Finger】

Type: Sacrifice Item.

Introduction: Representative item of the Evil God · Lord of Fish Scales.

The item information is very little. Seeing this information, Su Xiao felt disappointed. He couldn't use this thing to fish for Evil Gods. The protagonist of the last Evil God Heart Stir-fried Green Pepper was the Evil God · Lord of Fish Scales. This is an Evil God that has already been arranged. No wonder the information of 【Evil God Index Finger】 is so little.

It can only be said that, except for the Moon God, Su Xiao is also relatively destined with this Evil God named Lord of Fish Scales.

Su Xiao was just about to put away the 【Evil God Index Finger】 when suddenly, he thought of a question: do Evil Gods have divinity? For example, divinity is immortal, and the god position is eternal. If so, can an evil existence be made to swallow the 【Evil God Index Finger】, and then let it become the new Lord of Fish Scales?

In this way, a wild boss is artificially manufactured, and then killed to get the kill reward. Isn't it beautiful? Not to mention, can he eat another meal of Evil God Heart Stir-fried Green Pepper?

Putting away the 【Evil God Index Finger】, Su Xiao picked up the last 【Nether Emperor Armor Fragment】. If he guessed correctly, it was this thing that attracted the Netherworld invasion at the beginning, but that level of invasion was at most a Netherworld mid-level general coming here, which belonged to a small-scale invasion.

【Nether Emperor Armor Fragment】

Origin: Min-Light World (Underworld).

Quality: World-class.

Effect: Offering it to the four Knights under the King, or directly offering it to the Netherworld Emperor, can join the Netherworld faction with any race or identity (needs to have no hostility with the Netherworld forces).

Rating: None.

Introduction: There is no pain greater than betrayal. From this cracked armor piece, one can still see how decisive and fatal this stab from behind was. The cause of everything is just because the inheritance of civilization is both glorious and self-destructive. The more it reaches the peak, the endless greed derived from civilization will also swallow everything. But even if people restrain the greed in their hearts, something called curiosity will still make them repeat the same mistakes. Birth, exploration, prosperity, peak, destruction, reincarnation, until everything ends.

Price: This item cannot be sold for the time being, can be traded, transferred, etc.

Hint: If you can kill the Netherworld Emperor, by absorbing the source power of the Netherworld Emperor through this item, this item will undergo huge changes.

【Nether Emperor Armor Fragment】 is not needed for the time being, but the introduction of this item is very interesting.

Undoubtedly, this is an armor fragment of the Netherworld Emperor. I don't know how many years ago, the Emperor was stabbed from behind by someone he trusted, which caused this armor piece to crack.

Su Xiao seems to know why the legion under the Netherworld Emperor specifically targets intelligent groups. If he didn't guess wrong, the Underworld where the Netherworld forces are located should have been a higher-tier world, likely a ninth-rank world.

The Netherworld Emperor is the ruler of the Min-Light World, but because the civilization of the Min-Light World continued to progress, after reaching a certain limit, it triggered the arrival of disaster. This disaster is nine times out of ten the invasion of the Abyss.

It is precisely because of the invasion of the Abyss that the Min-Light World turned into the Underworld, and the civilization it was in suffered a dimensional reduction blow. The riddled Underworld was judged to be downgraded from a ninth-rank world notarized by the Tree of the Void to an eighth-rank world.

A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if the world tier is downgraded, the foundation of the Underworld is still there. Moreover, after enduring the tragic price of the Abyss invasion, Netherworld power was boosted.

Su Xiao guessed that during that Abyss invasion, all the Emperor's confidants, subjects, etc., all died. This is the despair of being eroded by the Abyss. Although there are benefits afterward, there will be an extinction of life.

One point is inexplicable. If the Emperor came from the era before the Abyss eroded the Min-Light World, then how did the Emperor survive the process of the Abyss invasion? This is not a few months or a few years. Being eroded by the Abyss for thousands of years is common.

If the Emperor really survived this process, even if the Underworld is an eighth-rank world, the Emperor's combat power will have a peak limit. But the peak limit between the eighth rank and the ninth rank is a bit erratic. This can be seen from Su Xiao, Rhine · Gode, Laikeli, and Sun Saint · Wager.

Su Xiao realized a problem. The situation this time is that defeating the Netherworld main legion is one aspect, and how to defeat the Netherworld Emperor is equally important.

If the Emperor really survived the direct erosion of the Abyss, undoubtedly, this is the strongest enemy Su Xiao has to face so far, more powerful than the Old Knight. The Old Knight carried the blood of darkness, while this Emperor directly carried the power of the Abyss source.

Thinking of these, Su Xiao knew why the main quest this time gave such a "merciful" optional mode.

Su Xiao estimated that even if he attacked the Underworld, it would be unrealistic to besiege the Emperor with human-sea tactics. If the Emperor really endured thousands of years of Abyss energy erosion, then where he is must have a large amount of Abyss energy spreading.

This is not Su Xiao's speculation. Optional main quest 3 is:

"Emperor's Fury (Quest Content: Kill the Netherworld Emperor and close the Abyss channel at the bottom of the Netherworld)."

There is an Abyss channel there, so it is normal for the Emperor's location to have rich Abyss energy.

Under such circumstances, rushing into the Abyss energy with human-sea tactics is no different from sending heads.

To defeat the Emperor, he can only find a way to temporarily solve the erosion of Abyss energy. Su Xiao doesn't have this method, but Caesar does.

To be precise, it is a product of the Abyss Jar that can temporarily exempt people from the erosion of Abyss power, but the duration is not long, at most a few hours. Caesar said this when he was in the Tree-Born World.

To get this item, looking for Caesar is useless; he has to trade with the Abyss Jar. The relationship between Caesar and the Abyss Jar is very subtle, both like cooperation and have a feeling of "birds of a feather flock together."

Su Xiao previously obtained five "Sediment Glazed Glass." He estimated that the Abyss Jar would not refuse this thing.

Assuming he can trade five "Sediment Glazed Glass" for five combat qualifications, Su Xiao doesn't need to fight the Emperor alone. He can find Sun Saint · Wager, Empire's Hand · Rhine · Gode, and finally Aisaia. The four join forces to deal with the Emperor together.

With a plan in mind, Su Xiao decided to send the Empire side away first. After they leave Pan Duola Star, he will let Jila be promoted to Empress-level, so as not to cause any trouble while the Hive is silent.

To avoid this, Su Xiao decided to send 200,000 Devil Beasts, 300 Devil Flame Dragons, and finally the leader-level Devil Beast · Abaddon to go to Oukai Star with the Empire's fleet.

The purpose of doing this is threefold: 1. While clearing the Corruptors on Oukai Star, obtain massive biological energy, 2. Prevent the Empire from playing tricks, 3. Take the opportunity to reap benefits.

When Oukai Star was occupied, some folk supernatural forces didn't have time to retreat. This means that now on Oukai Star, in some hidden places, there are many resources needed for strengthening.

Just as Su Xiao was thinking about the follow-up processing, news came from the Empire side that their space track was ready, and they would set off tonight to retake Oukai Star.

Putting down the communicator, Su Xiao was a bit surprised by the Empire's efficiency. What he didn't know was that the Empire was so fast entirely because it was stimulated by him and the Netherworld forces.

The situation on Oukai Star is actually not good. Wuying Solaro has retreated, but on Oukai Star, there are many cult organizations supported by Wuying Solaro. These organizations can command the Corruptors to a certain extent.

It is obviously not enough to send only Abaddon this time. Abaddon doesn't say a word for several days. Except for Su Xiao and Jila's orders, it ignores anyone. Oh no, it will occasionally listen to Amu and Xiang Bubu's orders. As for Bahar's words, it depends on the situation.

If Abaddon is allowed to go to hand over with the Empire side, it will have to kill people in less than three hours, so his side must send someone.

Who to send is a difficult choice. Xiang Bubu Wang, Amu, and Bahar all have their own duties. If they leave, the base camp will have various problems.

Soon, Su Xiao thought of three people. The Apocalypse Three Sisters downstairs have reflected many times that they are bored to death. Since they are so bored, this kind of "good thing" must count them in.

After going downstairs, Su Xiao knocked on the door of Morei's room. After the door opened, Su Xiao saw Morei yawning, and Moon Apostle and Hao Mei holding game controllers under the screen.

"The Netherworld has retreated, you should leave."

Su Xiao didn't directly mention the matter of going to Oukai Star. It goes without saying that if he mentioned this directly, Morei and the others would rather die than go.

They have been arranged by Su Xiao many times. Now as long as Su Xiao mentions plans, cooperation, etc., Morei and the others will subconsciously be vigilant.

"70,000 for just a few days, even if it's 10,000 a day, it hasn't been seven days yet."

Moon Apostle spoke, looking like she was going to throw the game controller in anger. Before paying, Moon Apostle was timid, but after paying, she was a bit tougher.

"There is a cooperation. If you are interested, I can let you command a part of the Devil Beasts."

Su Xiao spoke. Hearing this, Morei and the others' eyes brightened.

"What cooperation?"

Morei was the most urgent. She had been bored to death recently.

"Counterattack the Underworld. If you want, you can be the vanguard..."

"I'm not going!"

"I'm not going either."

"I'm even less going."

Morei, Hao Mei, and Moon Apostle all retreated together. Without thinking, they guessed that the Underworld was the old lair of the Netherworld forces.

Leading the Zerg to counterattack the Underworld and acting as the vanguard, Morei's thought was that normal people wouldn't do this kind of thing.

"There is another cooperation. The Corruptors on Bai Nini Star have developed group consciousness. You can take 150,000 Devil Beasts to clean them up..."

"Wait, how many Corruptors are there?"

"About 500 million."

"Hahahahaha."

Morei laughed exceptionally happily, and then she grabbed the wine bottle from Hao Mei's hand and drank a few gulps.

"Is there no cooperation that isn't so hellish?"

Moon Apostle covered her face with one hand and sighed a bit tiredly.

"The Empire is going to counterattack back to Oukai Star. My side will send 200,000 Devil Beasts to assist."

"It's a deal."

Hearing Morei say this, Bahar on Su Xiao's shoulder said: "You're thinking beautifully. It's a deal. Oukai Star is a big cake now. As long as you have hard strength, you can eat it however you want."

"This..."

Morei was speechless. She nudged Moon Apostle with her elbow,

"I'm out of money."

"Nonsense, you were bragging just yesterday that you still had 5,000 Soul Coins left."

"Damn it!"

Moon Apostle was so angry she wanted to punch Morey, but considering she truly couldn't beat her, she muttered a few words under her breath and decided to pay up to accept this cooperation.

Morey, Moon Apostle, and Hao Mei were all full of anticipation for this cooperation; they were certain that even if they couldn't scrape together many benefits during this time, after returning to Apocalypse Paradise, their comprehensive evaluation for this world settlement would definitely be ridiculously high.

Especially Morey; in order to make the Sun Saint Nest an official faction and thus gain the justice of the Tree of Void, she had been tricked into becoming the 'legal representative' of the Sun Saint Nest. Right now, the Sun Saint Nest had repelled the Nether forces, so she naturally shared in the glory. If the counterattack against the Underworld succeeded, Morey would be the number one person in history to win by lying down.

Morey and the other two left quickly, and along with them went 200,000 Demon Beasts, 300 Demon Flame Dragons, and the leader-level Demon Beast, Abaddon.

However, what Morey and the other two didn't know was that while Oukai Star was indeed a good place to scavenge for resources, the cult organizations on it were particularly crazy.

Although Morey and the other two left, one famous summon remained. That's right, it was none other than Fairy Lulu under Moon Apostle's command.

Su Xiao planned to bring Fairy Lulu along for the fifth spot in the battle against the Great Emperor.

"Big Boss, long time no see."

Fairy Lulu spoke in a crisp voice. As a cat-form light spirit, it leaped onto Su Xiao's shoulder. If Benny were to see this scene, she would definitely be so angry she couldn't eat for several meals.
