The Girls Are All Coveting Me

As for Louis, this guy directly reaps the increments from the World Group.

After all, compared to those small worlds that are unwilling to give even a half-plane, only the volume of the World Group can bear such a consumption.

"Tell me, what exactly are you here for? It can't just be to see Lilith," Chloe said seriously.

Louis raised an eyebrow and said, "Why can't I just come to see my daughter? Do you know how much I care for this child?"

"I know you care a lot about Lilith, but the situation is so dangerous now. You took the risk to come to my camp, so you must be after something. Just say it straightforwardly; there's no need for guessing games between us."

"I want to make a move against the Mechanical Realm, and I probably need your help."

"Are you talking about targeting the Mechanical Realm faction or the Mechanical Realm itself?"

"What do you think?"

"Are you really this bold now?"

"What, are you afraid?"

"I mean, I actually want to take on the Demon Hall first."

"..."

Louis was left speechless by Chloe's words.

Goodness.

This is planning to bombard the Demon Hall relentlessly.

However, upon hearing this, he instead let out a sigh of relief.

After all, if Chloe was unwilling to cooperate with him, Louis was sure his plans would be hard to realize.

"So why do you want to make a move against the Mechanical Realm?"

"No reason, because their resources can quickly expand my Soldier Realm. When hitting the World Group, I know which target offers the best chance to reap the most resources."

Chloe realized.

The situation with the Mechanical Realm is somewhat different from other World Groups.

As the name of this World Group suggests, it is one of the rare tech-centric ones.

To push technology to its limits requires enough theories, enough energy sources, and sufficiently good materials.

And what Louis's Soldier Realm lacks most are materials.

As the current War God and Martial God, Louis has already completed sufficient theoretical accumulation. The fact that he can create Heaven-Reaching Divine Artifacts shows that the technology of the King of Redemption's faction has reached a height unimaginable by ordinary people.

For him now, it's indeed resources that he lacks.

No wonder he's eyeing the Mechanical Realm.

"Alright, I'll help you solve the problem first, but..."

"But?"

"If we can carve out a chunk from the Mechanical Realm, I'd like to back up their technology."

"Are you kidding me?" Louis's face stiffened, "I'm asking you to join me in attacking the Mechanical Realm, and you think I'd let you walk away empty-handed?"

"Hard to say, consider it my dowry gift."

"Then am I not supposed to prepare a dowry for my daughter?"

"Who knows? After all, you know the situation in the past life."

"Can a decent person do this?"

"Why?"

"I won't do it!"

"Isn't that settled then!"

"Scoundrel!"

Bang!

Lilith gave her father and her lover a punch on their foreheads each.

"Enough with the skit, go do what you need to do; everyone is busy. Once the target is confirmed, it's fine."

Under Lilith's stern gaze, both stopped their conversation sheepishly.

In short, the decision to make a move against the Mechanical Realm was thus settled.

The Multiverse has now completed its division of powers.

Those small forces unwilling to unify were either outright eliminated or directly annexed.

As the situation developed this way, there was no turning back. The full-scale war officially reached its peak, and the next battle would not just be a contest among World Groups.

Rather... it would be a direct clash between the multiple major powers of the Multiverse.

However, Chloe didn't expect that without the World Groups tearing each other's faces yet, the first to make a move turned out to be The Stars.

As he knows about The Stars, their World Will rarely fires the first shot.

But now the situation seemed a bit off.

It actually required Louis and Chloe to jointly take action, which truly meant going all out.

However...

Heh, now The Stars no longer recognize the Filthy Sun and Redemption.

The faction he belongs to was cut off unilaterally by the Will of the Stars as soon as he started annexing small worlds.

The even earlier cut happened to Louis before Chloe awakened his Innate Wisdom.

As for why the Filthy Sun and Redemption are still operating within The Stars' domain, don't worry about it.

Just say, hasn't The Stars already unilaterally cut ties?

From the root permissions, The Stars have directly severed all connections with both sides.

You can't just say these two forces belong to The Stars just because they are cooperating with them, can you?!

Having grasped a seemingly plausible reason on the surface, theoretically, what the two would do afterwards had nothing to do with The Stars.

The Stars couldn't stop their actions to strengthen their own power, nor could they limit them.

In short, the two sharp swords had already detached from the rule of the — Pah, detached from the rule of The Stars.

Should they accidentally unveil some black technology and hit you hard, The Stars wouldn't care.

It's none of my business.

Unconvinced?

If you're unconvinced, go fight them!

Anyway, the cost you're paying doesn't yet match the damage value caused by the Filthy Sun Demon Monarch and the King of Redemption.

Let's see who can outlast whom.

Thus, after a few months, the Multiverse suddenly erupted into a cosmic storm.

The ring of Broken Stars entwined around the Mechanical Realm swayed within the storm and soon awakened.

A mechanical giant serpent made of endless metal coiled above the world, uttering in a cold voice:

"Filthy Sun, Redemption, how dare you!"

The World Will controlling this mechanical divine body was somewhat annoyed.

It was beyond its expectations that it would become the first target of The Stars.

To be fair, The Stars were being unreasonable.

Even though the World Will of Mechanical Realm knew it wasn't entirely clean and had interfered many times with internal affairs of The Stars. But truthfully, wasn't it the Bottomless Abyss, Nine Layers of Hell, and Demon Hall entangled with The Stars the most?

If we talk about allies backstabbing, shouldn't the first one to be held accountable be the Ten Thousand Beasts Garden?

If we're talking about allies shirking responsibilities, shouldn't you go to Heaven Mountain?

Why hit me directly?

The World Will of Mechanical Realm never thought it would be the first served as the main course by the Star Faction.

Amongst the rage, it wasn't willing to argue with these guys, and the abyss-like mouth of the Mechanical Divine Serpent opened wide, spewing pure white light.

The area swept by the light witnessed the collapse of stars, and Chloe dodged without hesitation.

"Are you only picking a fight with me and just think about escaping during battle?"

"Escape?" Chloe laughed aloud, "Is being faster than you considered escape? Then what isn't considered escape, is that it?"

In the next moment, Chloe's shadows were everywhere surrounding the Mechanical Divine Serpent.

This Half-Step Supreme Realm Mechanical Divine Serpent seemed to be surrounded by Chloe.

Continuous sounds of collision echoed, Chloe leading the charge, Louis supporting fiercely, the brilliance they erupted seemed to obliterate cosmic rules.

Soon, Chloe and Louis temporarily withdrew from the attack zone.

Chloe panted but laughed heartily, "I must admit, the technology of Mechanical Realm is even more useful than imagined."

Unlike other World Groups which directly choose to merge small worlds, for the Mechanical Realm, as long as the core resources can be taken away, whether the small world should be gathered is irrelevant.

Therefore, though the Mechanical Realm doesn't have the most small worlds within World Groups, it likely holds the most advanced resources amongst the Multiverse.

This method of constructing the Mechanical Divine Serpent, equates to conjuring a Powerful Divine Power to encompass the World Will of Mechanical Realm using technology and resources.

The investment in resources is astronomical.

At least Chloe could confirm, even if all nations on the Stars Continent at present were combined, their stored resources would still fall short to build a Mechanical Divine Serpent.

But now?

Upon realizing one Mechanical Divine Serpent couldn't handle the duo, the Mechanical Realm turned and summoned yet another Mechanical Divine Serpent.

Chloe and Louis looked on with envy.

What a wealthy tactic!

This could hardly be called a battle, purely a money-burning war.

The Mechanical Realm came aggressively, though its tone weakened upon speaking: "Filthy Sun, Redemption, do you truly wish to battle to the death with me."

"Slash!"

Chloe couldn't be bothered to speak with it, shouted holding the Thunderous Battle Halberd, unleashing Heavenly Thunderbolt, instantly engulfing the Mechanical Divine Serpent.

Boom!

The two Mechanical Divine Serpents controlled by the World Will of Mechanical Realm erupted with surging power.

This time, the Mechanical Realm went all in, without hesitation, investing four True God Uniqueness.

Each pair of True God Uniqueness was fused into the Mechanical Divine Serpent.

Terrifying red light flooded the surface of the two Mechanical Divine Serpents.

"Help me hold them back."

Chloe once again whispered, Louis acted without a word, the Soldier Realm unfolded, mighty World Power channeled into his body, terrifying aura encircled him, turning him into a sword tearing through the Star Realm, actively attacking the Mechanical Realm.

Chloe activated his weapon, intercepting the Mechanical Realm during its attack mode transition, eyes flashing like fiery stars, seemed ready to pierce the Mechanical Divine Serpent.

That power felt close to remnants of Supreme strength traces.

The duo attacked to defend and defended to attack, immediately placing the World Will of Mechanical Realm in great distress.

Honestly, Chloe sharply sensed a obvious gap with Mechanical Realm, but both of them were too reckless.

Under such a relentless approach, the opposition unexpectedly retreated consecutively.

Louis also was a bit surprised: "You've devoured so many small worlds these years, but haven't noticed anything significant, now getting closer to see, aren't you sneaking pills behind me, why so fierce?"

The two had separated the battle, handling two Mechanical Divine Serpents, thus the progress had been delayed.

But taking advantage of a gap in the fight, suddenly, brilliant light flashed around Louis, the attack aimed at Louis was unexpectedly blocked by a shield.

Chloe gasped: "Aik?!"
