Chapter 713: The Monsters' Worry; Counterattack Begins
Chapter 713: The Monsters' Worry; Counterattack Begins
“Rimuru-sama, please stop talking. Whether it is your ‘God’s Wrath’ or the Emperor’s ‘Heavenly Movement’ and ‘World-Suppressing Rock Spear’, they are all very powerful magics, but the trump cards should be saved for the critical moment.”
"and……"
At this point, Shuna's words were full of determination and seriousness.
"It is the duty of our subordinates to protect the country. We cannot live under the wings of Rimuru-sama and the Emperor forever."
Shuna's words immediately made Rimuru give up this radical idea.
Rimuru understood what Shuna said, she knew everything.
But she really didn't want Gobuta and the others to die. She didn't want even one person to die.
Rimuru knew that she was too greedy, but... really, she really wanted to protect everyone.
This is why Rimuru hates war. Because as long as there is war, there will be casualties, and casualties are accompanied by the death of people related to him.
Thinking of this, Rimuru became more and more disgusted with the Empire.
It's all the Empire's fault, it's all the fault of that guy called Rudra!
But it is useless to think about these things now. Rimuru still wants to help Gobuta and the others and try his best to prevent them from suffering casualties.
"If I go to the battlefield myself——"
Before Rimuru could finish his words, he was interrupted by Benimaru agitatedly.
Yes! That’s right! Benimaru was excited. Even war could not make him have too many emotional fluctuations. But Rimuru’s words made him panic!
“No! Lord Rimuru. As the general commander of the Demonic Federation and the commander-in-chief of the war, I cannot put the leader I am loyal to in danger.”
“And according to the information Chloe said, in another timeline, Rimuru-sama was killed by an unknown person.”
“Under such circumstances, it is even more impossible to allow Lord Rimuru to go to the battlefield!”
Hongwan expressed his advice with great excitement.
“Rimuru-sama, the Emperor, Veludera-sama, and Rudra-sama are here. You just need to stay here and leave everything to us.”
Benimaru patted his chest and assured Rimuru seriously.
He, Benimaru, would never put Lord Rimuru in danger.
Even Souei, who was usually not good at speaking, began to advise Rimuru.
Having said that, although there is intelligence about the empire provided by Galad, there are still many unknown doubts. What's more, the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and there is no way to guarantee the absolute safety of Lord Rimuru.
He is still collecting information and needs Lord Rimuru to wait here patiently.
She also hopes that Rimuru can trust General Benimaru and them to help her win the war.
With Benimaru and Souei taking the lead, more and more people in the control room began to persuade Rimuru to stay calm and put the overall situation (Rimuru's safety) first!
Just when Rimuru was about to say something, a calm and majestic voice suddenly sounded.
“Rimuru, stop talking.”
"I hold the same view as Benimaru and the others on this matter. Now is not the time for you to join the war."
Mo Li slowly walked towards the direction of Rimuru, who was a little restless at the moment.
Looking at Mo Li walking slowly towards them, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
With the Emperor's order, everything should be stable.
"But Ali——"
Rimuru wanted to say something, but was stopped by Mo Li's eyes.
“Rimuru, listen to me.”
Mo Li's words made Rimuru swallow back the words that were about to come out of his mouth, and he sat back in the chair weakly.
Looking at Rimuru in this state, a hint of helplessness flashed across Mo Li's eyes, but he didn't say anything else.
After all, to some extent, Mo Li really didn't want Rimuru to join the war, not to mention that even if Rimuru needed to fight, now was not the time.
The situation now is different from the past.
Although most of the plot in the original work is true, it can only be used as a reference and cannot be fully believed.
Not to mention that the current plot is completely different from the original.
Although Mo Li is confident in his own strength, even to a certain extent, no one in this continent or even the whole world can be Mo Li's opponent.
But there is a prerequisite.
That is in a one-on-one situation.
No one can be Mo Li's opponent in a one-on-one fight. If he fights one against two, Mo Li will still have a great advantage. If he fights one against three, in the Jiula Forest, Mo Li can also win. But if he fights one against four, it would be a little bit difficult. If he fights one against five, Mo Li can at most remain undefeated.
Of course, what is meant here is that Mo Li fights against a "disaster-level" being.
Hmm? It seems that there is nothing to worry about.
You have to know that in the entire continent, there should be very few "natural disaster level" existences.
Not to mention, in addition to Mo Li, the "God of War", the Demonic Federation also has the reborn "Veludera" and the powerful "Rota", two "disaster-level" dragon kings.
No! Even so, Rimuru cannot take this risk.
Mo Li was not worried about the Empire. What he was worried about was Michael who occupied Rudra's body and Feldwei and others from the Demon Clan.
Rimuru is too weak now. He only has the strength of an 'Awakened Demon Lord'. Although he is an awakened demon lord with four ultimate skills, he is still too weak.
Compared with 'Disaster Level', it is still quite a bit worse.
If Mo Li and Guy were to go to war, the aftermath alone would likely cause Rimuru to be severely injured.
If Rimuru were to join the war and be caught before Mo Li could react, then everything would be over!
So Mo Li would not let Rimuru take risks.
Even if you want to join the war, you have to wait until you are strong enough.
At the very least, we have to wait until Rimuru’s ultimate skill ‘King of Wisdom’ evolves into ‘Mind Core’ Ciel, and then devours Veldora and Velgrynd to transform into ‘Sub-Dragon’.
At that time, Rimuru could be considered a powerful man who had reached the pinnacle of this world.
Only then can Mo Li feel at ease.
Now? No!
Not to mention, the current Demon Federation is already many times stronger than the original.
The cadres of the Demon Kingdom who received special training from Mo Li, the ten powerful masters of the maze, the immortals formed by Mo Li, the Three Thousand Thousand Rocks Army brought back by Gui Zhong, the dragon lizard army under Ruo Tuo, and so on.
If they have such combat power but still lose to the Empire, about which most of the information has been revealed, then the monsters of the Demon Federation will have lived in vain.
How could Rimuru not see at this moment that all this happened to the monsters was because of her? Ever since Chloe told the monsters about how she was killed in other timelines, the monsters have been extremely worried about him.
Even Diablo and Shion spent more time with him, and even the guards of the Demon Federation were strengthened greatly.
Even those people on the battlefield now are acting as bait to lure out the mysterious danger.
Even Ali, who was always elusive, stayed by his side. He even called Veludela and Ruota, who were always willful and unrestrained, to stay by his side.
Three 'Disaster Grade' warriors were there just to protect her.
"Is it all because of me? To protect me? Am I the only one who is not aware? It seems so."
At this moment, Rimuru only felt weak both physically and mentally.
At this moment, the 'King of Wisdom' also noticed Rimuru's loneliness.
"——So, I have to become more perfect——"
"Are you worried about me too? No, I have already made up my mind. Even if it's for Ali and for my subordinates who have gone through life and death together, I have to be prepared."
Rimuru silently made up his mind.
Afterwards, Rimuru directly used Benimaru's unique skill, 'Grand Marshal', to convey his words to all his subordinates on the battlefield.
"Everyone listen up! Defeat the enemy with all your strength. There is no need to conserve your strength. Do not show any mercy to the enemy. Use all your strength to destroy those who dare to invade our homeland."
As Rimuru finished speaking, the Demon Federation’s counterattack began.
