Defying the Fate of Beheading

Chapter 654 346 Conservative Louis: Refers to thinking that the radical Swan is not radical enough_2

Olivia let out a soft hum and said, "It is foreseeable that as Limuru grows, the strength of the life essence, excluding metal, formed by its body part of the Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Pill will continuously increase.The enhancement of the biological metal forming the foundation of the Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Pill will further propel the growth of the divine tool itself.

Louis, what kind of monster have you created?"

Louis smiled and said, "I plan to continue enhancing Limuru's power, so that when the conflict with the Mermaid Empire arises, Limuru can head to the front lines of the battlefield."

Beatrice turned to look at Louis: "What kind of scheme are you hatching this time?"

Louis shook his head and said, "How can you call it a scheme? I have just figured out the direction for Limuru's next advancement."

The two women were startled, exchanging glances.

Seeing their expressions, Louis said helplessly:

"Actually, it's not just me; the White Tower has also made corresponding speculations. Think back on how Limuru was cultivated into the Kingdom Slime, and you will naturally have your answer."

Beatrice drew a sharp breath and said:

"Do you mean to continue cultivating the division into a giant Slime?"

Louis nodded and said, "Limuru's body is composed of ten thousand unique Slimes, with the cores of the ten thousand Slimes merging to ultimately form the giant Slime.

The majority of these ten thousand unique Slimes were raised on a singular diet of various metals and non-metals.

Therefore, the plan confirmed by the White Tower at that time was to extract the 100 easiest-to-prepare metals and non-metals, cultivating 9,999 unique-element Slimes for each type.

Including the one within Limuru's body, this forcibly nurtured 100 single-element-evolved giant Slimes."

Olivia mused:

"Limuru's advancement is not my concern, but your choice of direction is correct.

Although the pure metal and non-metal element Slimes initially do not perform as well in combat as the composite Slimes, as you master more pure elements and types, Limuru's adaptability will soon catch up and even surpass the composite Slimes."

Louis nodded.

From a scientific perspective, pure iron in hardness is no match for steel.

Steel is an alloy, a general term for iron-carbon alloys with a carbon mass percentage between 0.02% and 2.11%.

To achieve different mechanical properties and hardness, other metals and non-metals, such as small amounts of manganese, phosphorus, silicon, and sulfur, are often added.

In other words, an Iron Slime raised on pure iron is completely outmatched in battle against a Steel Slime raised on top-grade alloy steel.

In fact, even in the otherworld, there exists something similar to the periodic table of elements.

The direction of Limuru's cultivation is based on collecting elements according to that periodic table.

However, because that periodic table also includes many pure extraordinary forces, and some pure substances synthesized by the White Tower Mage and Alchemist, it's only just enough to reach the number of ten thousand.

This is why the Empire and the White Tower have said that after Limuru, they will not cultivate a second experimental individual.

Some elements have already drained everything they had, leaving no reserves.

So here's the question.

Although 10,000 Iron Slimes cannot defeat 10,000 Steel Slimes, how would a giant Slime Limuru, composed of elements like iron, carbon, manganese, phosphorus, silicon, and sulfur, fare against a giant Slime evolved from a Steel Slime?

Answer: Any giant Slime that advanced along the composite metal path will be disintegrated when faced with Limuru's [Metal Manipulation].

Recalling this, Olivia shook her head: "Never mind that Limuru can't surpass you now, but as its remaining divisions rapidly advance, it should become our greatest ally in the future. That's why you want to place it on the Mermaid Empire battlefield, right?"

Louis nodded and said:

"When Limuru advances to the Kingdom Slime, mastering the control of all things, it will no longer be just the Empire's greatest legendary equipment factory, but also the most precise laboratory. It's no joke that the White Tower has been desperately trying to borrow Limuru from me."

Limuru, able to freely control any element, will be a true laboratory killer, even if the control effects are stronger or weaker.

Louis can't even imagine what kind of impact such a Limuru would have if handed over to a certain Eastern nation from a past life?

Maybe within a few years, the South Celestial Gate project would already be rolling out.

After pondering for a moment, Beatrice said: "Now that tensions between us and the Mermaid Empire are escalating, are you planning to deploy Limuru to the battlefield to collect essential elements?"

Louis nodded.

How can a high-precision chemical factory extracting pure elements remain resting at the rear?

Olivia sighed quietly: "I fear the Mermaid Empire has no idea what they're up against. It's not just about the difficult-to-mine minerals underwater; even the scarce elements in seawater, if Limuru scours for half a year, would cause them great distress."

Upon hearing this, Beatrice's eyes lit up: "That shouldn't be the case. The Mermaid Empire rejected negotiations on the Abyssal Church issue, only unilaterally expelling the higher-ups involved in the Pirate Islands incident without any lethal intent.

Now all countries express strong dissatisfaction. When the combined army goes for negotiations, it's likely that they won't reach an agreement.

Louis, if a conflict arises, I don't recommend you send Limuru into direct combat. Instead, under the pretext of cutting off the Mermaid Empire's logistics, pack away various scarce elements from the seawater and minerals below the seabed."
