The Jura Great Forest is not just a place of four battles; it's practically the center of the world.
There are as many as 10 bordering countries around it.
"The above attitude is limited to the present."
"Once the country is established, the forest will not allow outsiders to enter or exit freely."
Of course, Bai Luo wouldn't do something as foolish as closing off the country.
He would still allow merchants to enter and exit, but they could only use the official roads arranged by Bai Luo.
The three fairies could re-plan the forest routes, using trees and rocks to construct a vast and accessible transportation network.
Given the size of the Jura Great Forest, the Demon Country could make a fortune just by collecting transit taxes from merchants.
"However, this will inevitably lead to much questioning and many challenges."
No one would allow public resources to become private property, and then also charge a toll.
Bai Luo could foresee how many protests and how much dissatisfaction there would be.
But, it didn't matter.
Bai Luo would use absolute power to suppress all dissent!
"The Demon Country's development direction is that of a permanently neutral country."
"We are willing to engage in diplomacy with any force," Bai Luo said, "as long as the other side doesn't break the rules of the game, I won't rashly overturn the table."
Conversely, if someone wanted to solve problems with force.
Bai Luo wouldn't mind playing along with them.
"Understood."
Toreni: "We will start working on this as soon as possible."
"Miss Violet."
"Could you please plan a new blueprint for us?"
Rashly transforming the forest's topography would cause immense damage to the internal environment and ecosystem.
The three sisters' abilities each had their uses.
Toreni was the supervisor, overseeing the entire project and providing funds and magic essence.
Torea was the engineer, responsible for the actual construction of the project.
Doris was the tester, checking the quality of the engineering and recording both the good and the bad.
However, it was the first time for the three sisters after all.
And the target was their own home.
This was no laughing matter.
If the transformation wasn't done well, it was very likely to ruin their base.
Therefore, professional matters had to be left to professionals.
Help me, Mother Violet!
"Mm, leave it to me."
Violet could manage the entire Cardinal World well; the mere calculation for the Jura Great Forest was no problem at all.
After the Toreni three sisters left, Bai Luo once again initiated the Void Ark's journey plan.
To Bai Luo, the endless worlds were like a vast ocean, and he was an explorer navigating the Void Ark, searching for islands to land on.
The Type-Moon World's cooldown was still about three days away, so Bai Luo couldn't directly activate the Void Ark for a direct Crossing .
But during this process, Bai Luo could still use the Void Ark's abilities.
So, during these three-plus days, Bai Luo wasn't doing nothing.
His consciousness constantly observed one world after another.
In Bai Luo's eyes, different worlds were like glowing spheres floating in the dark void.
He could see the scenery behind them through the crystal walls between worlds.
"Any leads on a new world yet?"
Snow Empress and Artoria were very interested in the adventure to a new world.
"Good luck, I've already found it."
Yes, Bai Luo had already found it: "That world has countless monsters waiting for us to hunt."
"Monsters?"
Snow Empress frowned, "But if they're monsters, their soul quality shouldn't be high, right?"
"Don't worry about that."
Bai Luo said, "The monsters in that world are products of human genetic mutation."
"Although I call them monsters, in essence, they can still be regarded as humans."
"The new world has no concept of souls, nor any superficial gods, Buddhas, or an afterlife."
Worlds like these are generally purely material worlds.
When humans living in a material world die, their soul energy automatically dissipates, leaving only a spirit core, which is swallowed by the reincarnation rules of the endless universe.
In other words, there is a very vast reincarnation system specifically for handling the life and death cycles of all technology-based sides.
"So, this can't even be called slaughter?"
Artoria didn't really agree with meaningless slaughter; it went against her knightly spirit.
Now, hearing Bai Luo's introduction, Artoria felt Bai Luo's thoughtfulness.
Bai Luo knew she disliked killing, which was why he chose such a world.
"Yes."
Bai Luo joked, "I'm working so hard for you, Liya."
"Ugh..."
Artoria showed a shy expression; she lowered her head, wanting to say something, but couldn't find any words to refute.
Just as Bai Luo said.
Worlds with humans are endless; Bai Luo could pick any one and complete the Demon King awakening ceremony.
At worst, he would just cross over a few more times.
In such material worlds, there was simply no power that could resist them.
They could descend directly, then destroy a planet with one blow, and immediately return.
In such a short time, the Void Ark's cooldown could almost be ignored.
"You didn't believe it, did you?"
Bai Luo: "I was joking."
"Mm."
"But, still, thank you..."
Artoria thanked Bai Luo, her resolve to follow closely in Bai Luo's footsteps becoming even stronger.
Additionally, Artoria secretly vowed: 'If there truly comes a day when killing is unavoidable, then I shall bear that sin.'
Artoria was pedantic, yet incredibly loyal.
She never felt that Bai Luo was obligated to compromise for her sake.
If she thought that way, Artoria would even look down on herself.
Therefore.
She would prepare to become the executioner.
At least, she could let Bai Luo become the flawless Holy King in her heart.
"Smack!"
"Ouch!"
Suddenly ambushed by Bai Luo, Artoria immediately clutched her forehead, looking at him tearfully: "It hurts..."
"That's punishment for your wild thoughts!"
Bai Luo naturally didn't know what Artoria was thinking, but he could more or less guess.
"Ugh~~"
Artoria stood there pitifully, Snow Empress watched this scene and shook her head: "But in that case, is the quantity okay?"
"Can the number of monsters there meet our needs?"
"At least 2 billion."
"2 billion!!!"
Artoria exclaimed, "This, is it that many? Is that world perhaps already on the brink of apocalypse?"
It was unimaginable how the humans in that world could survive surrounded by so many monsters.
