Quit the team, then picked up a beautiful girl with problems

To bring them out and remove the spiritual blockade first, Leon had to condense the ether and use the extremely effective healing water waves to heal their whole bodies.

"Le Ang, Leon, you're finally here. Hurry up and hand me over to the Order Foil Corps. You don't know how painful it is to hit someone with these workers' tools!" Fres screamed.

"No hurry, you are still useful."

Leon's devil claws covered his head.

Klem, who was standing aside, had not been cursed yet, but he had already curled up into a ball as if he had been stabbed by a sword. His eyes swept across the faces of Crook and Beria, who looked calm, and he was unable to suppress the trembling in his body.

After nearly an hour of agony, Li Ang looked at him and said, "It's your turn."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Klem's tough face was squeezed together, and it was impossible to tell which liquid on his face was sweat and which was tears. Although he was tied up, he was able to break free from the ropes by himself after the spiritual blockade was lifted. He just looked at Beria and Crook standing beside him, knowing that resistance was useless, so he didn't move.

He fell forward to the ground, his forehead hitting Li Ang's feet.

"Li Ang, please be gentle and don't let me become an idiot. All the money I earn is back home. I still want, I still want..."

"You still want to live a good life in the second half of your life, right?" Li Ang said.

"Yes."

"I still know what you said about me behind my back."

"Those, those are all bullshit, don't take them seriously..."

"Bullshit? Are you serious? For example, why don't you seek profit for yourself? Why don't you take on more private jobs while Ramsay is allowed to wear top-tier equipment? Why don't you quietly take over Lingmeng Team's assets under the pretext of losses?"

Klem didn't dare to reply. The three people who had been controlled beside him looked struggling. Although they were now obedient, their inner reason and cognition were also colliding.

"What did you all think of me? Idiot, idiot. I don't know why I care so much about the team ranking. Let me ask you, after reaching number one, did you benefit from it?"

Klem was silent for a few seconds and said, "Yes."

"I won't ask about the specific benefits, just the things about the lower body and making money."

Li Ang smiled and said, "It's normal for people to have desires. But I hope to reach the pinnacle of my soul, which is also what I desire. You think I'm abnormal, but from now on, perhaps I will ravage and kill like the 'normal people' in your eyes."

The young man's blood-red claws scraped across the metal ground built by the previous civilization. The sharp blades on his fingertips tore through the steel as smoothly as scraping off ointment. Klem's eyes trembled wildly.

"Don't even bother apologizing. It's boring. You're just afraid that you'll be injured by this spell, or that I'll take your life. That's all.

"Don't worry, you three, and these four I don't know, we don't have much hatred. Although I wanted to beat you up before, that's all. Besides, I beat you up. Compared to the people I really want to kill, led by Ramsay, you are not worth mentioning at all.

"I'm not some devil. I'll try my best to consider the guild's laws and human rights. When you wake up in the prison of the Order Flower Sword Corps, remember not to cross me again."

The blood-red claws covered Klem's face, and Leon completed his control over the seven Soul Apex members in the shipyard.

Compared with the difficulty of casting spells, the Demon Hand has also greatly improved the control time and number. Before, Leon had never fought with so many enemies of the Excellence Realm at the same time, and controlling ordinary people was simply not enough to test the limits of the Demon Hand.

Now, of course, it is far from the limit.

"Alright, take your posts and wait for my instructions. Belia, show me around the interior of the five shipyards."

If he encounters danger, he can temporarily call seven top soul members to take command, which is very close to the medium-sized mission lineup in the past.

When I came here to explore with Xiao Mo before, although I saw the slipway, the factory building is not the entire space of a shipyard. There are many places guarded by a large number of Annihilation Knights, and I have no idea what is hidden inside.

Leon had never fought against the Empire, his enemy, but he was used to finding out all kinds of information about the enemy.

Beria took Leon into the five shipyards that cooperated with the Empire, and the atmosphere suddenly changed.

They are not empty, there are no workers working numbly under duress, and many members walk freely inside. If you exclude the Annihilation Knights and researchers that can be seen from time to time, and the purple-black color of the Annihilators' flesh that appears from time to time, this is consistent with a normally functioning factory.

"They won't let us in the area ahead either."

Beria pointed to a small factory building, which obviously could not accommodate a slipway and warships would not be produced there.

Previously, Leon and Shadow Factory estimated that the number of warships should not exceed 30, because the built ships need to be pushed off the slipway. In order to conceal the truth, the Empire will definitely not allow the warships to be launched, so the upper limit of the capacity of the twelve shipyards will not be too large.

Li Ang wanted to see something deeper, such as what the Apostle of the Divine Eye hiding inside was doing, but this time there was no underground passage in the city that connected to the City Lord's Mansion, unlike the time on Spark Island.

He didn't find the Apostle of the Divine Eye, but he and Beria discovered that there was a room in every shipyard that was absolutely not allowed to be viewed by outsiders.

When Li Ang was thinking about how to obtain inside information, he heard a call.

Ivenice's silhouette was outlined from the clear blue sky. Like an apostle of the sky, she gracefully landed beside Leon, and time around her froze.

332. Destruction of the Battleship

"meet again."

Li Ang raised his hand and looked at the sky-blue ring that was burning hot.

Ivinis clasped her hands in front of her chest, her expression complicated: "Leon...Ah!"

The sky blue girl didn't expect that Li Ang suddenly reached out and grabbed her. After being pulled in unexpectedly, her face turned red in an instant. Her face as white as ice and snow suddenly had blood color and became real all of a sudden.

She looked at Leon's devilish hand that was pinching her fair wrist. He applied force carefully, allowing the thorns to avoid her tender skin.

Yvignes opened her mouth hesitantly, as if she had forgotten how to speak, and it took a lot of effort for her to squeeze out a mosquito-like hum.

"Why, why is this——"

Li Ang smiled and let go of the devil's hand: "Don't mind me, I just want to see if you are real."

Yvette lowered her face with a blush still on it. She never expected Leon's sudden behavior, but she was not annoyed. She just secretly looked at his devilish hand.

"Since you are here, it means that what happened in the room is related to Genoside, right?" Leon knocked on the door of the room.

In the world that has come to a standstill after Ivenice's arrival, there is no need to worry about the external environment.

This building is smaller than an ordinary factory, but it should be used as a warehouse. There is also a lot of space inside. I don’t know what is inside.

There are still many Annihilation Knights standing guard at the gate, but their power comes from the Annihilators. Leon suspects that if Ivinis wants, she can control these combat forces.

So, even when she didn't press pause on the world, as long as she was there, Leon felt that these guys were not a threat.

Perhaps it was the spiritual control ability bestowed by the devil's hand, Leon seemed to have some new feelings about the existence of the sky blue girl. It was unlikely that she had the ability to stagnate the entire world. If she did, then Meimei and the others would be powerless to fight back against the "Empire Witch".

She must have used some kind of spiritual manipulation method, producing an effect similar to Leon's acceleration technique, but with a power several times stronger. This allowed her temporary presence and the object of her communication to temporarily accelerate the passage of time relative to the outside world.

But he still couldn't be sure of her existence.

He himself was a little surprised by his sudden action of reaching out and grabbing her.

The devil's hand seemed to have weakened much of his self-restraint, and some actions that would not have happened were all taken at this time.

"Yes, I came here to... ask you to help me and this child."

The previous few times that Ivinis suddenly appeared, she was basically taking the initiative to help Leon, but now, she said she needed Leon's help.

"You don't seem to be in good condition."

Only then did Leon notice that even with the shyness caused by his sudden contact, the girl's cheeks were still pale, even a little blue.

Leon had compared Yvness and Zoe before. Apart from their similar appearance, they were very different in other aspects. The biggest difference was of course their hair color and temperament. One of the biggest factors that made up their temperament was that Yvness was as exquisite as a glass doll, rather than a wild child with vigor and vitality like Zoe.

At this moment, she looked a little weak, and the blue color under her skin seemed to be caused by the faintly visible blood vessels, but Li Ang felt that there was a deeper reason.

Star Soul Greenhouse...

Just because Zoe benefits from the Star Soul most of the time now, she shouldn't forget that her parents were very afraid of the negative impact of the Star Soul on her in the beginning. Even when they arrived on Satus Island, the Earth Serpent still existed, and after it revived, it still wanted to devour her power.

This shows that the Star Soul brings them more than just benefits, and in some cases, there may even be negative elements.

"I can still hold on."

Ivinis reached out and touched the door of the hidden room, and Leon felt the strong fluctuations of the star soul inside.

Is it Geneside?

This star soul that can travel through space had previously torn open the rift door with a part of its body and placed it in the shipyard. Leon and Xiao Mo saw it with their own eyes.

What about this room?

"Do you want me to help you, including helping to annihilate the Star Soul?"

"Yes."

Ivinis said, "These children, called Star Souls, appear to be free beings, unobtrusive as a part of this world. Newbiss has gently given them a place to stay, but among those who know their true nature, there will always be those who want them to return to their original form.

The pale girl looked melancholy, an expression far from what a girl of her appearance could produce. Compared to the lively and simple Zoe, Ivinis's melancholy and relief were almost like... a sad mother?

"Anastasia, I feel her newfound strength. Thank you for treating her like your partner."

"Now we nicknamed her Anna, and she has taken on human form."

As expected, Ivinis, who possesses strange powers, can feel Anna's changes, but it is unknown how much she knows.

"That's good, really good."

The blue girl touched the door, and some of the destructive power inside seeped out, as if it also sensed the girl outside.

But what surprised Leon was that at this moment, the power of annihilation did not manifest in the form of black thunder, but condensed into a ball, like the tentacles of a soft-bodied creature, crossing the gate and connecting with the girl's palm.

The internal force suddenly broke through the shackles and pushed the door open.

The world was still suspended. The gate opened for only a moment, but it knocked the Annihilation Knights outside away. Since time hadn't begun to pass again, Leon had no idea how they would react when they stood up.

But the next moment, the things inside the door made him no longer have the mind to think about these things.

"Damn it, the Empire actually wants to do this?"

Surprised, even horrified for a moment, cold sweat slightly soaked the shirt that clung to his back.

Before, because of the rash attack of the Devil's Hand and Meluna, Leon was a little annoyed about the unconservative execution of the plan, but at this moment, he was even glad that he had accelerated the plan.

Really can't wait any longer.

In the not-so-big warehouse, the Annihilator's body, which looked like flowing plaster, was extending from a crack filled with brilliant starry sky. It was because of this door that part of its absurdly huge body was successfully placed in the material dimension.

The starry sky scene inside the rift gate is naturally the magic dimension. When viewed from the material dimension, the powerful magic source and the life in the magic dimension must be observed in the form of stars to be understood by the life on this end of time, so at first glance it is a starry sky.

Genoside's body exists in the rift between dimensions. Through this rift door, Leon can see other rifts torn open around it. Those rifts obviously lead to twelve shipyards, no, more than twelve.

If the landscape of the magic dimension is the starry sky, then these rift gates are like the nebula surrounding Genoside. Its body is a cosmic behemoth that can extend its tentacles to shake the nebula, or in other words, a strange god that transcends human intelligence.

But someone like Gui Xiang and Annihilating Star Soul has not yet reached this level of strength.

Leon discovered that it was hidden in the dimensional rift, but its power could not expand the distance between the material and magic dimensions too much, as that might shake the stability of the world itself, which should not be something a star soul can do.

The reason why it opened so many rift doors was to place part of its body in the material dimension to reduce the occupation of the rift area opened by itself.

So what occupies the rift area?

Imperial battleship.

The warships built by the twelve shipyards were directly dragged into the dimensional rift through the rift gate within the shipyard, connected by its fluid body, and became components of some larger existence.

It wasn't just the twelve shipyards that provided the warships, there were others as well.

This gigantic being is so large that even the giant ship that is nearly a hundred meters long is only a part of its final form. The size of its final form is so large that an aircraft carrier would probably look very small in front of it.

"Those doors, aren't they the gateway to the shipyards deep within the Empire?"

"Yes." Yvénice responded softly.

"We were a little wrong."

Li Ang pulled at his bangs, causing his scalp to ache. "I thought the Empire relied on warships, and that the Annihilation of Star Souls was just a tool to achieve their warship construction. In reality, they rely on the Annihilation of Star Souls themselves, and the Rudder City is merely a manufacturer of the components."

Indeed, if we only consider the Imperial warships, even if there were dozens of them, the Order Flying Swords, with their Celestial strength, would not be afraid of them at all. Just like when Leon fled Satus Island, he was able to defeat the pursuers without any equipment. The Order Knights, arrayed in formation, could easily capture them.

Treating the entire Rudder City as a base and hostages? I underestimated them.

He quickly turned to Ivinis. At this distance, separated by the dimensional rift, he could not get close and could not use the system to observe the super-giant existence that was taking shape.

"What's in there?"

Leon held Yvness's shoulders. At this moment, he had no time to think about any presumptuous contact. He only wanted to get things clear. Even if she came to find Leon on her own initiative, there would not be any possibility of letting her leave him.

"Could it be the Expanded Star Soul?" Li Ang couldn't wait and asked first.

This term comes from Meimei's narration. In the current Newbis, when it is spoken out, except for those who really know the darkness of the world, everyone will think that it is a meaningless term because they don't know the meaning behind the term.

But Ivinis seemed to know many secrets related to Star Soul. Leon felt that there was no need to hide this term from her. If she didn't know about the Wedge of Creation, just saying this term would not affect anything.

However, Ivinice's expression changed.

"Why do you know, Leon..."

"Because of some special events, we also have some new information here."

Li Ang recalled the case Meimei told him. After the Water Dragon fell, the demons brought the "Final Sea Star Soul", which was like the ocean suspended in the sky and could instantly overturn any sky island.

Meimei and the others didn't know how the enlarged star souls were produced, but it was certain that they were created like ordinary star souls.
