Chapter 837: Diablo's Thoughts; Rimuru's Cheating
After hearing what Diablo said, Kalijulio was completely enraged.
"Damn demon, how dare you look down on me! Go to hell!"
Kaligurio attacked Diablo with all his might.
But it’s too weak! Really too weak!!!
Just like crushing an ant, Diablo easily killed Kaligurio and directly harvested his soul.
Just like that, Kaligurio, the commander of the 'Mecha Corps', one of the three major corps of the Empire, fell!!!
He couldn't even bring out Diablo's true ability and was defeated.
Looking at Kaligurio lying on the ground, Diablo's eyes were filled with disappointment that was hard to conceal.
After all, the strength of this "Legion Commander" greatly disappointed Diablo.
I learned from the Empire's former 'Great Magician' Gadra that there are indeed many strong people in the 'Empire', but the real strong ones are all in the Emperor's 'Guard Knights'.
Especially those with single-digit sequences are called "monsters" within the empire.
The Imperial Knight named 'Krishna' whom he had just killed seemed to be a serial knight in the 'Emperor's Royal Guard'.
The serial number seems to be around ten or so.
This means that those beings with single-digit sequences may have surpassed the immortal level and achieved self-awakening.
"Looks like if I want to hone my own strength, I should look towards that 'Royal Guard Knights'!"
Diablo counted the human souls he had harvested from the imperial soldiers, touched his chin and muttered softly.
There's no other way! Diablo is too eager for strength now.
The 'God of War' Morax was like a mountain pressing on Diablo's 'heart'.
Without strength, Diablo wouldn't have the slightest confidence to face Mo Li. Without strength, how could he save the bewitched Lord Rimuru?!
Diablo now knows that his skills have been honed to the point where there is no room for improvement, so he gradually turns his attention to his 'skills'.
The 'Ultimate Skill' is nothing short of something that can significantly increase Diablo's strength.
In fact, Diablo doesn't care much about skills, or it would be more appropriate to say that he disdains them.
But now he has reached the point where he has to aspire for the 'ultimate skill'.
And Diablo never doubted whether he had the ability to control that power, because this was the confidence that belonged only to Diablo as the "Original Demon".
Even Red could easily harness the power of his Ultimate Skill, so how could Diablo not be able to do the same?!
He is not as "weak" as "Blue", "Green" and "Purple"!
That’s right, although Diablo admitted that ‘Rhine’, ‘Misali’ and ‘Ultima’ were ‘original demons’, in Diablo’s eyes, they were really weak!
Especially after Rhine, the 'Original Blue', and Misali, the 'Original Green', Ultima, Carrera, and Testarossa accepted the name and body given by 'Morax'.
'Rhine' and 'Misali' have become the two weakest of the 'Original Demons'.
It can be said that even Diablo feels that no one is as weak as Rhine and Misali.
At least in Diablo's eyes, he is really "weak".
Although Diablo also feels that he is weak now.
But Diablo is still very confident that he can control and master the power brought to him by the 'Ultimate Skill'.
Before becoming the Demon King and mastering the ultimate skills, Diablo still felt that he needed a few suitable "grindstones".
Diablo actually thinks that those in the Empire's "Royal Guard Knights" are very good.
However, this is not something Diablo can control on his own.
He could only wait and see if there was an opportunity. After all, although Diablo was eager for strength now, it was nothing compared to 'serving' Lord Rimuru.
His immense strength is one of the tools that allow him to better serve Lord Rimuru.
If the pursuit of strength prevents me from serving Lord Rimuru better, then that would be putting the cart before the horse.
Okay, I don’t want to think about these things anymore.
The mission is complete, and it is time to report to Lord Rimuru.
Afterwards, Diablo looked at the corpses of the imperial soldiers on the ground whose souls he had harvested, waved his hand, and saw that the soldiers on the ground disappeared directly on the spot.
Diablo believed that these corpses were still somewhat useful.
If Lord Rimuru needs it, then give it to Lord Rimuru. If it is useless, then use it as a 'sacrifice' to summon the demon!
Anyway, I can't be like that battle maniac 'Carrera' and kill all the soldiers with a single 'Nuclear Magic'.
This is such a waste of resources.
Diablo is a good minister who knows how to be thrifty!
Thinking of this, Diablo couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up.
If Diablo had a talent for scientific research, he would most likely have created a machine that could convert corpses into resources.
There's no other way! For the 'primordial demons' who would slaughter cities, destroy nations, and wipe out races at will, their 'corpses' are usually disposed of on the spot.
Now that he has joined the Demonic Federation and become a vassal of Lord Rimuru, Diablo has realized the importance of resources to a country.
Even the great and unfathomable Lord Rimuru would be troubled by the allocation and shortage of resources.
Diablo had thought more than once about whether he should destroy a country or a large force to replenish resources for the Demonic Federation.
However, Lord Rimuru, who was kind and compassionate by nature, rejected it outright.
Of course, Diablo also suggested that he would hide his identity and lead the matter to other forces or other beings.
But Lord Rimuru still refused.
This made Diablo feel very sorry. After all, he already had a ready-made and extremely suitable person to take the blame in his mind.
Guy, the 'Original Red'.
Whether in terms of identity, reputation, temperament or strength, he is an extremely suitable person to take the blame.
He is simply a perfect scapegoat.
As for whether Qi Yi would have any opinions or even complaints when compared.
Hehe~~, Diablo said, who cares about him! Letting him take the blame is a sign of respect for him, and it allows him to be picky.
What? Could it be that he still wants Diablo to sincerely ask him for a favor?!
It really gave him face.
Furthermore, Diablo had a feeling that this bastard Guy was definitely planning something bad, and it was most likely related to Rimuru-sama.
In other words, Diablo doesn't have time to go to the frozen continent now, otherwise he would have to chat with that bastard Guy and dig out all the things he has hidden.
So Diablo doesn't have the slightest bit of good feelings towards that bastard Guy.
Let him take the blame without any guilt at all.
After cleaning up everything, Diablo didn't waste any more time. He disappeared from the spot in an instant and went to report to Rimuru.
After a while.
Inside the control room of the underground maze.
Rimuru looked at the scene on the big screen and was stunned with shock.
She really didn't expect that 'Carrera' would be so... 'powerful' (cruel) and wipe out the remaining imperial troops with just one nuclear attack magic.
And this 'Nuclear Strike Magic' - Gravity Collapse, isn't its power a bit too great?
Will she be punished by God in the future for using such inhumane "magic"?
Rimuru thought silently.
And isn't Benimaru's strength improving a bit too fast?
This 'Black Flame' is really played to perfection!
Especially the control over the 'Black Flame', which had reached a subtle level, was really surprising to Rimuru.
She really didn't expect that Benimaru's strength would increase so much!
The current strength of 'Benimaru' has definitely surpassed the limits of the 'Demon King'. Rimuru even thinks that 'Benimaru' should be able to fight 'Sakaguchi Hinata'.
As expected of the Generalissimo of the Demonic Federation! He's just awesome!
Moreover, Rimuru had a feeling that the subordinates under her might be stronger than her!
That is to say, Rimuru still has this "ultimate skill" now, which can suppress them in terms of rank, but once they are promoted to the realm of "True Demon King", Rimuru feels that he may really not be a match for these perverted subordinates of his.
The Great Sensei, the 'King of Wisdom' within Rimuru's body, only wanted to say one thing after realizing Rimuru's thoughts.
You are just overthinking it!
Under the arrangement of Raphael, the 'King of Wisdom', it can be said that the monster named after 'Rimuru' has no possibility of surpassing 'Rimuru'.
The phylogenetic tree of the 'King of Gluttony' is not just a name.
What 'Benimaru' and the others know, Rimuru can learn through the system tree in 'Lord of Gluttony', and what 'Benimaru' and the others don't know, Rimuru can also learn through the BUG computing power of 'Lord of Wisdom'.
[I have analyzed the underlying formula of the nuclear attack magic—"Gravity Collapse"—and its entire structure, effectively learning it. Now, the nuclear attack magic—"Gravity Collapse" has become one of your "magic"]
Just when Rimuru was worried, the King of Wisdom directly and effectively encouraged him.
Rimuru: ………!!!!!!!!!!!!
After hearing the words of the ‘King of Wisdom’, Rimuru was stunned by the shock.
H-Have you learned this?!
She had learned 'Original Yellow' Carrera's nuclear attack magic - 'Gravity Collapse' so easily!?
How come I don’t feel anything at all?!
I can only say that the 'King of Wisdom' Great Teacher is still too buggy!
After a brief thought, Rimuru finally came to an important conclusion.
It turns out that no matter how high your talent is, it can't compare to cheating!
And she is obviously one of the cheating ones!
So, she decided to just give up!!!
'King of Wisdom' Great Teacher!
Give me some more!!!
At this time, Rimuru directly sent it to Hi!
There's nothing I can do! Although Rimuru is indeed very smart and has strong academic ability, if he can cheat, then it's better to just use it.
King of Wisdom: ………………
Speechless!
Forget it. It’s ours, so we can’t dislike it!
It can't be changed anyway.
In fact, all of Rimuru's worries were completely unnecessary. Almost everything in the Demonic Federation was under the control of the 'King of Wisdom'.
The strength and growth of the cadres are all carefully calculated by the 'King of Wisdom'.
How do they awaken? What will their strength be after awakening? What abilities will they possess? Do they have ultimate skills?
All is part of the plan of the 'King of Wisdom'.
In the entire Demonic Federation, the King of Wisdom is almost an "omniscient and omnipotent" existence. No! There is an exception.
That is the 'Emperor of Rock' Morax.
The 'King of Wisdom' can see through and analyze other monsters thoroughly, even the 'Original Demon'.
But..., the only thing she couldn't see through was the one that her slime was 'obsessed' with and 'loved'!
Can't see through it at all!!!
It was as if some unknown barrier blocked her investigation, and she was unable to conduct an effective analysis.
And even if she tried her best to penetrate that unknown barrier, that existence before her was like a golden abyss, unfathomable and untraceable!!!
And there are those beings surrounding him, the most representative of which is the 'Ancient Rock Dragon King' Ruota. In her analysis, Ruota Dragon King and 'Morax' actually have a similar aura that seems to be of the same origin.
Logically speaking, such an existence should not exist in this world!
But he not only existed, but he was also standing in front of him alive.
To be honest, the King of Wisdom didn't want Mo Li to stay with her slime. Putting aside personal feelings, the fact that she couldn't see through this person meant that he was extremely dangerous.
But..., we are ready to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first?
Her own slime wasn't doing well. Last time, it almost got into a fight with Guy because of him! She was at her wit's end.
The meaning of her existence is to help Rimuru. Apart from that, she has no other value in existence.
So, if this is really what Rimuru wants, she will do everything she can to make it happen for her.
But a back-up plan is also essential.
She can’t resist that existence now, but that doesn’t mean she won’t be able to in the future!
