"Hahaha, you are no match for me. How about you come at her together, little brat over there? Your magic is the strongest I have ever seen. If you use magic to help her, maybe you can see my true power!" Milim knocked Xiaobai away again and again. She controlled the strength as agreed. At most she would injure Xiaobai, but would not cripple him.
However, Milim didn't know that Xiaobai was very cruel to her. Even if she was beaten to a pulp, she would not back down. Instead, she would run to Xiaosi for treatment and continue training without getting discouraged.
Xiao Si was too lazy to pay attention to Milim's provocation.
He opened the dragon eyes copied from Milim (of course, this is not the only skill), and saw that the philosopher's stone in Xiaobai's body had begun to take effect.
The Philosopher's Stone is known as the pinnacle of alchemy, so it certainly cannot be just a piece of magic aggregate.
It only possesses enormous magic power because of the materials used in its refining. However, the true power of the Philosopher's Stone is the ability to reverse life and death, which is the so-called immortality. Before, Xiaobai only obtained the most basic attribute bonus by swallowing it. Now, with heavy training, the true power of the Philosopher's Stone has begun to take effect.
I have to thank Milim for this.
Milim could naturally see what Xiao Si could see with his dragon eyes. When she found that after Xiao Bai was injured, there was a magical power in his body that was repairing Xiao Bai's body and even made him stronger after the repair, she suddenly felt very curious. She remembered that this aura was the same as those stones that Xiao Si had refined with magic before.
“I see, your magic not only refines the life of the Storm Demon Vortex, but also inherits its immortality and super-fast regeneration?!” Milim grinned. Could it be that this sandbag could release a little more power?
Xiao Si smiled mysteriously and said, "No, that is not the power of the Storm Demon. That is the Philosopher's Stone, which is called a miracle power by alchemists. Its effect is very simple, that is, to reverse life and death. As long as the soul is not destroyed, no matter how many times the body is shattered, it can be regenerated. And there will be no limit to the life span, which is the immortality that most alchemists pursue throughout their lives!"
"The Philosopher's Stone?! Isn't that something from the story? It actually exists..." The Minister of the Dwarf Kingdom, who is now a technical researcher in the Federation, was filled with disbelief and fanaticism when he heard Xiao Si's words, because he is the real alchemist.
Speaking of which, there is also the Philosopher's Stone in this world, but that thing is really just a collection of magic power, not a rare thing, let alone the power to give people immortality. The Philosopher's Stone that can give people immortality is just a delusion in the story. Besta has always believed so, but now this incredible power has appeared before his eyes. He feels his brain trembling, and his common sense has been overturned.
However, Besta was the only one present who knew the value of it. The monsters only thought it was very powerful, but they didn't know how powerful it was. Although eternal life seemed very amazing, Master Xiaobai was now being suppressed by Master Milim.
Milim thought that this thing might arouse the interest of some monsters, but immortality was not a great power for her. As the oldest demon king, she was much older than she looked.
And the power of super-speed regeneration and physical immortality really wasn't that impressive in her opinion.
Xiao Si didn't say that the Philosopher's Stone certainly has more than just this power. If it is a perfect Philosopher's Stone, then the soul will no longer be a defect. Even if the soul is destroyed, as long as there is still a will to survive, it will definitely be resurrected and gain true immortality. At this time, unless the person who possesses the Philosopher's Stone does not want to live anymore, no means can kill her. However, the Philosopher's Stone cannot bring people super power. After all, the huge magic power of the Philosopher's Stone is only a supplementary power.
But...a Philosopher's Stone of that level.
The required sacrifices are difficult to gather.
Milim clenched her fists, her magic power surged. She was not interested in the Philosopher's Stone, she only knew one key point, "That means I don't have to hold back, even if I kill her, Xiaobai can still come back to life, right!"
"I will be very happy if you do that, because Xiaobai has not yet absorbed all the power of the Storm Demon Vortex. If he absorbs all the power of the Storm Demon Vortex, Xiaobai should be able to fight with you for a while without being defeated." Xiao Si said with a smile, and said words that made all the monsters in awe. He even said calmly that Milim should kill her companions. Although he knew that this was a training, he was really like a devil.
"Wow~ There is actually such a training method. Sir Si, can you give some of that stone to these useless disciples of mine?" At this time, Old Bai opened his eyes and looked at Gobuta and other guard members.
"No! Don't waste such precious things on me!" Gobuta looked panicked.
The current training intensity already makes him feel like he is about to die. He does not need to receive the same training as Lord Xiaobai. That is simply not the training that a goblin can endure. His spirit will definitely collapse!
Xiao Si saw Bai Lao's serious expression and knew what he was thinking through mind reading. It seemed that unlike that incompetent king Rimuru, Bai Lao knew that once the news of the establishment of the Federation and the news that the Pig-Head Emperor was conquered by them were known by human countries, what consequences would it cause? That's why he was anxious to increase his strength.
"Snapped."
A crisp snap of fingers.
The surrounding scene suddenly changed drastically. Milim and Xiaobai stopped their sparring and looked at this dark blue imaginary space.
"This is the imaginary space I just opened up. I have set the rules here. Anyone who dies here will be resurrected. If you want to train in the future, you can come here to train. As long as Milim does not attack this space with all her strength, the strength of this space should be able to support your full-strength training."
Old Bai looked at the vast space in a daze. He did not expect that Lord Xiao Si would be so generous, nor did he think that someone could create such a space. He clasped his fists towards Xiao Si with great respect.
With this training space, the military strength of the Federation will be greatly enhanced.
"Why am I the only one who can't use my full strength?!"
Milim was furious.
This is discriminatory treatment!
Xiao Si was too lazy to pay attention to this childish devil. Why? Don't you have any idea?
[Chapter 55: Clement's Plan]
A month has passed since Rimuru left the city, and life in Rimuru City has not changed much as usual. The only change is that the training of the guards has become more cruel, and one can often hear the screams of ghosts and wolves howling from the training ground. Those are the cries of people who wanted to "escape from prison" but failed. Apart from that, there is really nothing worth mentioning about life in Rimuru City, and it seems that no one comes to visit for the time being.
"It's the calm before the storm."
Xiao Si said thoughtfully that now the surrounding countries are wary of this new monster kingdom, especially when they know that the leader of this country has conquered the legendary monster Pig-Headed Emperor, they are even more vigilant and uneasy. During this period of time, Souei has reported several times that human troops are exploring near the forest. At this time, if people knew that Rimuru is not at home for the time being, there should be people who overestimate their own abilities and want to do something.
Kleiman has also begun to take action.
Speaking of which, I don't know if Rimuru's action this time will be successful. You know, the person behind Clayman is where Rimuru is going. With that person's identity, he should have contact with Rimuru. If Rimuru is a little more vigilant, he should be able to find out the identity of that guy, right? He is just an arrogant human, whose foolish behavior is just like a clown, and now he is still dreaming that unrealistic dream.
"Your Excellency the Bishop, a group of humans is heading towards the city. How should we deal with them?" Souei suddenly appeared in the office, and Xiao Si, who was sitting behind the desk, raised his head calmly.
"Well, I saw it. Generally speaking, it is right to expel these spies at this time, but considering Rimuru's attitude towards humans... let them in here. If they are guests, then we will treat them well. But if they come with weapons and the smoke of war, then you know what to do without me saying anything. Although Rimuru ordered you not to kill, my attitude towards humans will not be as friendly as Rimuru's." Xiao Si did not care about Souei's opinion of her, nor did she think that her words would change the minds of these magicians.
So I express my attitude in this way only for the future.
"Yes."
Souei withdrew without saying much. He actually agreed with the bishop's point of view, but Lord Rimuru's orders were absolute. Since Lord Rimuru hoped that they could live in harmony with humans and ordered them not to harm humans, then they would do so. Although judging from the current situation, humans seemed to be wary of them and might even want to start a war to destroy them, they still hoped that Lord Rimuru's ideals could be realized and would work hard for it.
Xiao Si's eyes were indifferent.
"But you don't know that it is precisely because of your blind worship of Rimuru that he cannot recognize his own shortcomings and cannot gain the necessary enlightenment. No, perhaps you know this, but you still do it because you think this is to protect Rimuru. I just don't know to what extent you can persist in this belief. In the face of the casualties of your companions, can you still have such a contemptuous attitude towards humans?"
She knew that the reason why Souei and the others were so confident was because they believed that the power of humans was not enough to cause fatal damage to the Federation, but the humans in this world were not actually a weak race. This arrogance would sooner or later make the Federation pay a heavy price. It would be curious whether Rimuru could still insist that monsters were not allowed to harm humans at that time.
"My lord."
Clayman suddenly contacts Xiao Si.
Xiao Si frowned, and Clement explained the plan in detail. In their plan, they intended to report Rimuru's identity to the Holy Church, and let the saints go out to stop or kill Rimuru. At the same time, they would send the research results brought by Rimuru, that is, the advanced healing potion, to the trading country Farmus Kingdom, and lure this country to launch an invasion of the Federation.
"The king of that country is a greedy man. Previously, the Kingdom of Farmus had always occupied the center of international trade. The emergence of the Tempest Federation took advantage of the natural geographical advantages of the Jura Forest. Coupled with the existence of these fine wines and potions, the income of the Kingdom of Farmus will be greatly affected. If the Holy Church instigates at this time, given the personality of the King of Farmus, he will definitely launch an attack on the Monster Federation."
"That person is not going to do it himself? He is so cautious. Unfortunately, he has missed the best opportunity. If he and the saint join forces, even Rimuru's survival rate should be less than 1%. But if only the saint takes action, Rimuru will not die so easily."
Kleiman did not respond.
He knew that his master was only laughing at that man's stupidity and did not really want to kill Rimuru. After all, in his master's plan, Rimuru was a very important chess piece. If Rimuru's life was really in danger, his master would definitely have a different tone now.
Xiao Si asked: "So when are you going to take action? Or have you already started taking action?"
"No. That person seems to be planning to wait until Rimuru completes that mission before taking any action. Although he seems ruthless, he seems to really want Rimuru to heal those students." Clement didn't quite understand that person's thoughts. In his opinion, that person should be someone who would do anything to achieve his goals.
"That's it..."
Xiao Si felt even more speechless. He was having such a bizarre daydream, but he only had this level of awareness. If he didn't take action now, with Rimuru's speed of improvement, it would only become more difficult to kill Rimuru. However, that person chose to delay the plan for a while for the sake of the children.
However, this was probably not out of goodwill, but because that person was inexplicably confident and calm. He believed that Rimuru could never escape his control and would never discover his true identity. So even if he gave Rimuru some time to prepare, he didn't think there would be any possibility of any unexpected situation.
Or even if something unexpected happens, that person will comfort himself like this - "Everything is still under control, the overall situation is not affected." After all, he is a dreamer, and his brain is not normal.
“My Lord, if I want my plan to succeed, I need to send a puppet to infiltrate the Monster Federation and use the barrier to seal the monsters’ magical abilities when the time comes. This will allow those humans to make up their minds to attack the Monster Federation.” When Clement said this, his tone was very cautious, because he didn’t know whether his master was willing to let those monsters sacrifice themselves.
Xiao Si's expression remained unchanged.
"It's okay, just do it."
Anyway, even if people die, they can be resurrected later, so a temporary sacrifice is not unacceptable.
[Chapter 56: Storm is coming]
Demon Summoning - As Rimuru used this technique, this skill was also updated on Xiao Si's skill panel. I don't know if Rimuru was careless or careless, the seeds of faith are still in his body and have not been cleared. Therefore, when Rimuru obtained a new skill, Xiao Si's skill panel was also updated. Xiao Si curiously picked up Akasha and read through Rimuru's experience, and found that Rimuru's strength has improved a lot this time, because the Great Sage has the ability to analyze. Although it is impossible to copy all skills directly, the Great Sage can obtain general skills through the ability of analysis.
Among them, Demon Summoning and Spirit Summoning are not special skills, but they are more difficult to master.
That's why it's so rare. With the great sage's ability to analyze, it's not difficult for Rimuru to acquire these skills. At the same time, Rimuru seems to have completed his mission. After finding the fairy queen, he made those students sign a contract with the upper elves. As for the girl with time-related abilities, surprisingly, what she summoned was not an elf, but her own soul that traveled back to the past.
But now the girl is probably having a headache, because because of the arrival of her and Xiaobai, this world line has deviated greatly from the history the girl knew. Although she is not sure how her fate developed in other world lines, since she has already taken action several times, then according to the butterfly effect, this world line must be different from the world line the girl knows.
As for whether it is possible that the girl came back from her future world line, the possibility is almost zero. Although she has not yet obtained the power of omniscience and omnipotence, as the God of Dusk, she is unique, which means that if the girl is from her future, then it is impossible for her to have no feelings now.
Xiao Si thought about it and used space transfer to come in front of Rimuru and others. Instead of making random guesses, it would be better to meet this brave man from the future directly. No one can hide their thoughts in front of her. She only needs to meet him once and she will know the truth of the matter.
"Wow, this guy suddenly appeared!"
"so cute!"
The children did not seem too surprised to see Xiao Si suddenly appear. It was obvious that they were very confident in Rimuru. However, they successfully educated these children in just a few months. They did not expect that Rimuru had such a skill.
and......
Xiao Si narrowed his eyes.
Some children don't have pure emotions.
"Oh, oh, Xiao Si, why did you come here suddenly? Did something big happen?!"
Rimuru was surprised.
He hasn't been back to the city recently, because he is very confident in Xiao Si's abilities, so he lives a very free and easy life outside. After class every day, he hangs out with the businessmen he knows. During holidays, he will ask Miss Jing to go out on a date with him. It's so comfortable.
"Nothing happened. However, you have been out for such a long time and you haven't come back to visit. I guess you are living very comfortably out there. You must have completely forgotten that you are still the monarch of a country?" Xiao Si originally thought that Rimuru would definitely go back every two or three days, but he didn't expect that there would be no news for several months after this guy came out.
Although this does make it easier for her to do things, what she needs to do does not require so much time. Moreover, after Rimuru disappeared, the monsters have been with her for a long time and their attitude has become more and more disrespectful. Zhu Lai even wanted her to be a clothes hanger to help them try on clothes. This loose attitude was due to the bad style of the monarch Rimuru.
"Ah, ahahahaha, I believe in everyone's abilities, and you also know that I am doing something very important. The lives of these children depend on me, and I have gone through a lot of hardships to handle this matter. In fact, I was just thinking about going back."
Rimuru smiled brightly.
"Oh? Is the nightclub fun?"
"Of course not. I don't know what nightclub it is. What are you talking about in front of a child?"
Of course Rimuru would not admit such a thing.
"Izawa Shizue is really pitiful. I just finished dating you, and a few days later you ran into the arms of a nightclub girl. I wonder if she would agree to date you next time if she knew about this."
Xiao Si despises people who are indecisive the most.
But this slime is not only lustful and fickle, but also has a tendency to start a harem. Izawa Shizue, Milim, and this student all have a very good impression of Rimuru. The student even knows that his emotion is love.
"I don't!"
Rimuru felt very wronged.
He didn't do anything inappropriate when he went to the nightclub, and he didn't ask to be hugged by the girl. The girl did it on her own initiative because she thought he was cute. He went to the nightclub mainly because he liked the environment and he only went there to drink.
And he doesn't have a girlfriend now, is it wrong to drink? If he wants to do something, he can't do anything, he doesn't have that ability.
"Yeah, if you think about it this way, anyone who marries you will be in big trouble, because you are... incompetent."
"Xiao Si...are you angry?"
"No, I'm not angry about this, but the thought of having to stay in the office all day while someone is out having fun makes me want to destroy something."
Throw the work to her and then go out and play? How dare she do that - she's always been the one exploiting others, when will it be her turn to work for others? When she thought of this, she wanted to catch this slime and beat it up several times to vent her anger.
"...I'll be back soon."
Rimuru knew that this might be a warning from Koji. If he continued playing, even if Koji was not angry, he would most likely abandon Rimuru Castle.
"Well, there is something I need to tell you. Recently, there have been a lot of human spies gathering intelligence near the city. They are very vigilant and alert to us. Although I may be overthinking, I think they are very concerned about us.
The attitude is definitely not friendly.”
"Is that so? It seems we do need to pay attention. I've heard a lot of news recently. Some countries seem to think that our existence is a threat to them, but there are also countries willing to form an alliance with us. Souei should have brought back documents on this." Rimuru's expression also became a little serious. The incident of the Pig-Head Emperor made many weak countries think that their existence was very dangerous, and some countries that mainly relied on trade, after seeing their business, also felt that the existence of their country was a huge threat.
Although he does not want to fall out with humans, Rimuru himself knows that there may be a fierce battle next, and war with humans is probably inevitable. However, his allies are still helping him to navigate, hoping to avoid the outbreak of war.
But there is a major problem, that is the decision of the Holy Church. If the Holy Church decides to attack them, then war is inevitable, and the possibility of this happening is very high. According to his investigation, the Holy Church has always been ruthless towards monsters and has no intention of coexisting with monsters.
Seeing him like this, Xiao Si felt somewhat relieved: "It seems that you haven't been doing nothing outside. Since you already have an idea, then quickly deal with this matter and come back to take charge of the overall situation."
After saying this, she teleported back.
Rimuru looked back and saw the children with tearful eyes. He felt a headache for a moment, because Xiao Si came over suddenly, and his plan of how to say goodbye to the children was ruined. Now he had to find a way to comfort these students, otherwise these little brats might really cry.
"Well, the teacher didn't disappear, he just returned to his own country. And you also know that the teacher can teleport and come to see you at any time. You can also visit the teacher's country in the future. Everyone will definitely welcome you."
"...Then it's a deal, you must come back to see us." "A liar must swallow a thousand needles!"
Rimuru breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the matter was not as serious as I imagined.
However, there is one thing that needs attention. Xiao Si just let the cat out of the bag in front of these children. For Miss Jing's safety, he has to erase these children's memories. After all, Miss Jing has lost most of her power now. It will be troublesome if she meets her former enemies.
[Chapter 57: Hinata Sakaguchi]
After receiving the notice from Koji, Rimuru took the students back to school and said goodbye to the school administrator. The next morning, he left the school with the children's reluctant farewell and prepared to return to Rimuru Castle.
"Teacher, please come back to see us."
"When I grow up, I will definitely go find teacher i. Then it will be my turn to protect the teacher!"
"Humph~ I won't be unhappy!"
"Rimuru-sensei..."
