Chapter 432: Liuli Chamber of Commerce
However, speaking of it, he could totally just leave.
But looking at the sleeping Caroline, Li Meng dismissed that thought.
He could arrange Caroline's future however he liked.
But to disappear completely from her life like this...
Li Meng couldn't imagine what Caroline's future would look like.
She would probably return to her hometown in despair and live a life of mediocrity.
Smiling faintly, Li Meng left the room.
Once he found the mother dragon, he would take Caroline to the Garrison Fort.
If Caroline accepted everything about him, he would make her his queen.
If she was unwilling, he could always let her go later.
Sea Dragon King's Roar.
Seventh Tier, Interstellar Transfer Magic Array.
Suddenly, a black hole tore open beside the transfer array.
Li Meng, dressed in black combat gear, stepped out from the rift.
Without any hesitation, Li Meng entered the Interstellar Transfer Magic Array.
The pale blue magical glow flared again.
Li Meng turned into a beam of golden light and disappeared.
The next moment, on the other side, in the Wild World.
The Interstellar Transfer Magic Array suddenly shone with pale blue magical light.
With a surge of golden light, Li Meng returned to the Wild World.
Looking at the familiar barren lands, a curve appeared on Li Meng's lips.
This world could serve as a stepping stone.
He could use other Interstellar Transfer Magic Arrays to head to other worlds.
"Let me bring a small shock to this world!"
As he spoke, sky-blue magical light burst out from Li Meng's body.
The dazzling magic shot straight into the sky.
Forming a pillar of light that pierced thousands of meters into the heavens.
Within a radius of dozens of kilometers, one could see the pillar of magic rising from the earth.
In the next instant, kilometer-long Eastern Dragons shot out from the light pillar.
They swung their long bodies and flew off in all directions.
Their kilometer-long bodies made them look massive.
From afar, they looked like snakes flying through the sky.
But up close, one could feel the ferocity of their bodies and the immense magic of the Eastern Dragons.
Beneath Li Meng's feet appeared an Eastern Dragon.
It carried Li Meng and soared into the sky.
As the light pillar faded, ten Eastern Dragons flew off in all directions.
"Summoning magic really is the best!"
Li Meng sat cross-legged on Dragon Head Mountain.
Each Eastern Dragon possessed a magic value of one million.
Their kilometer-long bodies made them appear immensely powerful.
Li Meng sitting cross-legged on the dragon's head looked like a tiny speck.
"Xiao Bai, are you sure the mother dragon is in this world? I think it's possible she might be sleeping in the lower labyrinth. We should search the lower labyrinth. If she's not in this world, no matter how much we search, we won't find her."
[Master, labyrinths aren't good places for sleeping. Even dragons might get assimilated by the labyrinth over long years.]
Hearing this, Li Meng recalled some things.
Adventurers indeed couldn't stay long in labyrinths.
Because the magic within labyrinths was extremely corrosive.
Staying too long would gradually distort the body.
Thus, adventurers would rest for several months every year or two.
To let the labyrinth's magic gradually dissipate from their bodies.
"Ah, such a huge world, finding one mother dragon won't be easy! If there are people from other worlds here, maybe the mother dragon has already been captured."
[Master, let's go to the place where magic gathers. That's likely the stronghold for humans from other worlds.]
Place where magic gathers?
Li Meng's eyes lit up.
This world's magic was already depleted.
And humans couldn't operate without magic.
Thus, where magic gathered, humans from other worlds were sure to be found.
"Huh, Xiao Bai, did you feel that?"
Glancing north, Li Meng narrowed his eyes.
[Yes, there's a large magic fluctuation.]
"Let's go check it out!"
Meanwhile, hundreds of kilometers to the north in the sky.
A massive fleet was flying.
The fleet was made up of a hundred giant floating ships.
Each ship was no less than two hundred meters long.
The largest looked like a floating island shaped like a ship.
Many wooden palaces were built upon it.
The island exceeded a thousand meters in length.
At the prow, a hundred-meter-long giant dragon was dragging the floating ship.
Golden chains were tied all over its body.
The massive fleet completely blocked out the sky.
"Congratulations, Vice President! Today, the Liuli Chamber of Commerce will surely monopolize this Fallen Demon World!"
Inside one of the palaces on the flagship, on a viewing platform.
An elder in a white robe sat on a chair.
Hearing the flattery of the person next to him, a flash of annoyance passed through his eyes.
"What's the Yalrin Family's reaction?"
Victor laughed obsequiously.
"No movement at all. Looks like they plan to defend Demon Suppression City to the death!"
"Hmph, such ungrateful fools!"
A trace of anger flashed through Pullman's eyes.
If not absolutely necessary, Pullman didn't want to become mortal enemies with the Yalrin Family.
Though the Yalrin Family belonged to a hostile country,
As a businessman, he felt little attachment to any nation.
Not just him, the entire upper echelon of the Liuli Chamber of Commerce didn't want to be tied to any country.
But since that woman rose to power,
The Liuli Chamber of Commerce had become the royal merchant guild of the Empire.
Although this gave the Liuli Chamber many advantages,
It also made their overseas assets suffer from suppression by enemy countries.
And cost them the chance to become a multinational merchant guild.
"Exactly, since they don't appreciate our goodwill, we won't be polite!"
Victor spoke with murderous intent.
He had long been disgusted with the Yalrin Family.
Occupying such a rich resource yet failing to develop it properly.
The revenue gained from this Fallen Demon World over a hundred years was pitifully low.
"Vice President, what do you think the Yalrin Family is up to? Sitting on a treasure mountain without exploiting it. Look at the land, the planet is clearly undergoing demonification. Once true demon species descend, the transfer magic arrays will become coordinates to other worlds. The Yalrin Family can't be ignorant of this. Could it be they actually want the true demons to descend? That... can't be, right?"
Though Victor said "can't be,"
His expression clearly showed deep suspicion.
The birth of true demons required massive amounts of souls.
And gargoyles were puppets that nurtured souls.
By hunting gargoyles and reducing their numbers, the birth of true demons could be prevented.
Once all gargoyles in the world were destroyed,
The planet's demonification would halt.
Transforming the Fallen Demon World into a barren wasteland.
Of course, eliminating all gargoyles was extremely difficult.
Because abyssal demons would do everything possible to ensure the planet's successful transformation.
Pullman frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
He too began to suspect the Yalrin Family.
Regarding this offensive launched by the Liuli Chamber of Commerce,
The Coreydia Kingdom had shown no reaction, which said a lot.
