Succubus Martial God Way, fight with 3,000 times sensitivity

Thinking of this, Li Wei suddenly stood up from the "throne"...

...It's called a throne, but in fact it's just a piece of shell on the back of a rock-armored beast that was shaped like a chair by Aenecus. Of course, although the shape looks ordinary, it still has the necessary functions.

It's just not very comfortable when you lie on it, but there is a solution. At worst, you can just put two Goblin girls under it as cushions...

As for this behavior that completely disregards the human rights of the Goblin Girl, Mava, who is also Livi's subordinate, expressed her grief and indignation...

...Why do they get all the good things? Why should we reward them!

Well, never mind the details…

...When it comes to "making do", Livi is now becoming more and more adept at it.

Anyway, Livy's sudden standing up made Mava and the goblin girl beside her nervous.

"What's wrong, Boss Livy?"

"It's okay, it's okay..." Livi waved her hands and walked towards the little devil girl who was happily frying fish.

After all, it's rare to encounter an opponent that even they can bully, so they must seize the opportunity to bully him well, right?

You can't just hang in the sky all day and be flown like a kite...right?

Li Wei just watched for a long time, and now she couldn't help but speak, "You can't do this..."

"Lady Livy?!"

Hearing Livi's voice, these little demons were immediately frightened and at a loss, thinking that they had done something wrong. They lowered their heads and twisted their fingers, not knowing what to say.

"...Oh, don't worry about it. I'm not saying you did anything wrong. I'm just saying that using magic like this is too inefficient."

"?"

The little demons looked up in confusion. Was it inefficient to use magic? But they were the weakest spellcasters and could not master any powerful magic.

It’s not that they don’t want to use their magic more efficiently, it’s just that they simply don’t have the ability to do so.

"Abilities can be trained. Well, let's put this aside for now. Even if you haven't trained them, the right method of use can achieve twice the result with half the effort. For example, have you ever tried 'combining each other's strengths'?"

"..."

Naturally, these words filled the faces of the little demons with question marks, and all of them had a pure and beautiful look that had not been polluted by knowledge.

Livi did not show any impatience. These little evil demon girls had just been trying to fight at their own pace since the beginning, without "gathering" each other's strength at all.

Of course, it is indeed difficult for them to expect a group of small demons to have any degree of organization, but just because they didn't have it in the past doesn't mean they can't start training from now on.

"...Do you know about the 'battle formation'? It is a special battle formation used by human troops. Through the power of the battle formation, the scattered individual forces can be gathered together to form an effect of 1+1 being greater than 2."

The little inferior demon girls shook their heads in confusion. It was normal. The demons who had seen battles had all invaded the main continent. As for these little inferior demons, how could they be described...

...They are not yet qualified to join the main force invading the main continent. At most, they are only qualified to be sent out to harass the remote villages of ordinary humans.

Even the demons didn't expect the little demons and goblins to be of much use.

However, Livi wanted to try to see if she could use the human army's strengthening methods to strengthen these little inferior demon girls...

"...It doesn't matter if you don't know. I can teach you now. No matter how weak a life is...it has value and meaning in its existence."

Chapter 40: The Genius of Negative Optimization

Livi's desire to guide the little demon was not just a whim. She just came to a very bad conclusion based on her current situation.

In the worst case scenario, she might not be able to form a reliable and powerful regular army to fight against the empire. Although she has the useful plug-in of the Mark of Submission, she always has a physique that she may be found alive at any time.

Of course, even if the worst-case scenario did not come true, she could rehearse it in advance. After all, if she wanted to gather the scattered demons together to form a reliable force, a battle formation was the best choice.

She had served in the imperial army and later rose to prominence as a brave warrior. She understood the benefits of battle formations very well.

If we compare the strength of individual soldiers, once the strength reaches a certain level, the number of "ordinary things" becomes meaningless.

Take Livi as an example. At her peak, she could physically move mountains and split seas. With her strength reaching this level, even if she faced an army of 100,000, theoretically she could defeat them all by herself.

But it doesn’t work…

...Because of the existence of the battle formation, individually weak humans are gathered together as an army...and can release a force that is enough to rival a powerful being like Livi.

Of course, the use of battle formations has many limitations, and it requires years of training. Only an army that has undergone systematic training can reasonably utilize the power of battle formations.

But no matter how many restrictions there are in its use, battle formations are the power of weak existences to cause qualitative changes through quantitative changes. They are the product of "the violence of numbers" piled to the extreme.

It can be said that the battle formation demonstrates the saying “there is strength in numbers” in the simplest and crudest form.

The Empire has 300,000 permanent troops, plus several generals serving the Emperor. Although their strength is not as good as Livi's, as long as they join hands, coupled with the amplification of the battle formation, they can kill Livi at her peak even at the cost of half of their men dying.

Of course, this result cannot even be considered a "lose-lose" situation. This is not a game. The soldiers are just game units without self-thoughts. They can just go and die if they are told to.

But as the saying goes, "There is always a brave man under a big reward." As long as the death pension is paid in place, and one person's death can help the whole family get back on their feet, there will naturally be many people willing to rush forward and die.

More importantly, no matter whether it was the Empire or Livi, they didn't dare to really gamble on what the final result would be if things developed to this point...

...It's like playing poker in a casino. No one would play it like that unless they are desperate and have no other choice but to go all out.

Nine out of ten bets are lost, and the probability of a comeback in a poker game is infinitely close to a miracle. In the past, Li Wei might have been able to take a gamble, but now, Li Wei would never bet on such a low-probability event...

As for changing one's thinking and not engaging the imperial army head-on, adopting a decapitation tactic, that won't really solve the problem.

Even if the emperor was killed, in fact a new emperor would be elected immediately. Even if the entire aristocratic class was uprooted, as long as there was no replacement for the new system, within ten years... a whole new aristocratic system would be born, repeating the tragedy of the past.

Livi has to do more than just kill the emperor and eradicate the aristocracy of the empire...

...What she needs to do...is to completely destroy the entire cannibalistic system brought by the empire!

This is very difficult, several times more difficult than conquering the empire by force. Even if the imperial aristocracy were slaughtered, it would probably be difficult to shake the system itself.

But it doesn't matter, someone has to do the difficult things...

If no one does anything, then even if there is a one in ten thousand chance of change, that chance will never come...

More importantly, she had her reasons for doing so. It was no longer her own wish, but the last wishes of her comrades who died because of her, her life-long friendships...

Even the weakest life has its value...

...Although Livi didn't want to use this sentence on the demons, this was indeed her original intention and wish when she fought all the way to now.

I hope that all weak lives can realize their own value and shine with their own brilliance...

"The battle formation cannot be mastered in a day or two, but it is the most advanced battle formation. The first emperor of the empire, Saint Laurent the Great, relied on the battle formation to defeat the five major countries in the Central Plains that ruled the main continent at that time, and snatched the most fertile land from each of the five major countries in the Central Plains to establish the current Saint Laurent Empire..."

It can be said that the empire can be what it is today entirely due to the power of battle formations. Emperor Saint Laurent was able to crush the five major countries in the Central Plains with the power of one country...it was thanks to this.

The battle formation that swept across the continent required rigorous training to master, but there was also a degraded version of the battle formation, specifically for use by the conscripted troops recruited by the empire.

At that time, Emperor Saint Laurent's elite troops used the complete version of the battle formation, while the troops that joined him as his strength grew used the degraded version of the battle formation.

The first reason is naturally because these armies have not been trained by the emperor himself and cannot master the complete version of the battle formation in a short period of time. The second reason is naturally to curb the strength of these teams.

After all, the most powerful force must be in the hands of one's own elite.

Livi knew the training method for the complete battle formation and also mastered the quick training method, but the quality of these little inferior demons was slightly worse than that of ordinary conscripts.

No matter how incompetent the conscripted soldiers were, they were still the regular army of the vassal states that had surrendered to the empire. These vassal states were none other than the five major countries in the Central Plains back then, and their armies were trained in accordance with orthodox military training.

The quality of these little demons is about the same as that of volunteer soldiers randomly armed by rural villagers. Their individual strength may be much stronger, but their military qualities can only be said to be comparable.

Therefore, Livi could only think of ways to degrade the battle formation again. Fortunately, she was indeed talented in this aspect. When Livi led the troops, she started with the complete version of the battle formation. She even carried out a comprehensive optimization of the battle formation.

She also didn't expect that she, who was even able to optimize the complete version of the battle formation, would now turn around and negatively optimize the lowest level battle formation.

What is this? As an academician, am I going to compile textbooks for primary school students?

...Well, it doesn't seem to be impossible, since there's no one else who can go up now.

Another reason for not teaching it before was because Livi hadn't compiled the teaching materials yet, and mainly because she had a strong personal resistance.

Now she has finally smoothed over her worries and gotten over the hurdle in her heart. She finally has the opportunity to try to teach these subordinates.

"Look, I don't want to teach you too many times..."

Chapter 41: A decision that went against our ancestors

Although she was very reluctant, Livi still wrote the book "Basic Battle Formations That Even Little Demons and Goblins Can Learn".

There was no paper or pen, and everything was passed down orally, mainly in order not to leave any actual "evidence"... to prove that one had really tried to make such a thing.

According to Livi's personal will, making such a thing is simply "making a decision that goes against her ancestors", and she will not be able to face her good friends after she dies.

But Li Wei thought again, her good friends and comrades should all go to heaven, as for herself, conservatively estimated that she must be in the eighteenth level of hell...

... Never mind. At least there aren't many acquaintances in hell. I don't have to worry about being embarrassed.

While thinking about this, Livi also told these little demons the essentials of the degraded battle formation. Very good, they listened very carefully. Livi felt that this had nothing to do with the little demons' own learning ability...

...It should be mainly the additional effect of the Seal of Submission, which makes them subconsciously regard everything Livi said as the most important instruction.

As for the final result...

"Okay, let's give it a try..."

In fact, Livi only said less than one-third of the key points, but looking at the expressions of those little demons, she began to see looks that she was very familiar with.

Livi was very familiar with this look. It was almost like when she was in school, when she encountered knowledge that she could not understand at all and had to force herself to pretend that she was listening carefully.

Anyone who has received a serious education should know this, although most people may think they are pretending well.

But the expression on that face can actually be seen at a glance.

Li Wei also felt that these little demons had limited brains, which were smaller than peanuts, and could not remember much. She had simplified the content as much as possible, hoping to live up to her "decision that went against our ancestors"...

Although the little demons only understood the general idea, since it was Livi's order, they naturally did it anyway.

Just as Livi said before, they were all casting magic on their own, without any tacit understanding of cooperating with each other.

This time, they will try to combine their magic powers.

This is naturally different from the simplest cooperative sport such as the three-legged race, and the difficulty will increase exponentially as the number of people increases.

Generally, the army starts with teams of three or five people, then gradually the teams are transformed into squadrons, and then the squadrons are transformed into battalions.

Livi directly sent dozens of little inferior demons to attack at once. After all, they were degraded versions, so there was no need to set up detailed small teams.

Following Livi's instructions, these little demons tried to gather their respective magic powers, but they were full of loopholes from the beginning.

There was absolutely no tacit understanding between them and the speed of gathering magic power varied.

"Al?!"

Several little demons who were gathering magic power suddenly made a surprised sound, and she felt that the magic power gathered in her hands was expanding in a way that she could not control.

It far exceeds the amount of magic power they can normally gather, and is dozens of times more than normal.

Livi immediately realized the problem. In short, because she failed to strike a good balance, the gathering of magic power became tilted.

Originally, the pressure of the gathering of magic power should have been evenly distributed among all the little demons, but because of their unbalanced control, the gathered magic power tilted towards a few little demons.

However, Livi was very calm about this, because she had encountered such situations more than once when she was instructing new recruits in the army.

Therefore, Livi had sufficient experience in dealing with the situation. She simply reached out and patted the little demons, guiding the magic power with her participation.

“…Throw it out!”

"Yes!"

For these little demons, the feeling just now was just like holding a time bomb in their hands, and this time bomb was stuck in their hands and they couldn't throw it away.

Livi helped them remove the glue, and they immediately took advantage of the moment when the magic power took shape to throw away the time bomb in their hands.

From Li Wei's perspective, this was a rather failed attempt. However, when the gathered magic power condensed to a point, it directly turned into a compressed magic bullet, which blasted out with a whistling sound... and landed directly in a group of high-calcium tablets and pork belly in the distance...

The next moment, a dazzling light rose from afar. The blinding white light mixed with the scorching air waves spread in all directions. A red fireball tumbled and exploded. The pitch-black rotten soil churned, and the corpses buried underneath were turned into charcoal on the spot by the terrifying heat. The air currents turned them into a handful of flying ashes...

In just a few seconds, there was only a deep pit several dozen meters wide, still emitting charred heat...

"what?"

The little demons who released the magic bullet were shocked by the scene before them.

Even if they all cast magic together for half an hour, it might not be as destructive as this one. How could just combining their own magic power cause a qualitative change of this scale?

Not only the little demon, but also Mava was a little confused by this scene. She was not prepared to be hit head-on by the power of this attack, and she would probably feel uncomfortable for a long time.
