Chapter 563: That Bastard Esdeath!
Just as the situation and atmosphere in the 'Imperial Arms World' were growing increasingly nervous.
Meilard, disguised as an Army Headquarters Colonel, walked across the land of the 'Canberra Continent' in the 'Titan World', suppressing the shock in her heart the entire time, her face expressionless.
She still clearly remembered the magnificent, incomparable sight she saw the moment she stepped out of that Star Gate Base.
It was absolutely a scene she would never forget in her lifetime.
At that time.
It was evening here, with the orange-red Sunset floating in the golden-red Sky to the west, but it was merely a background within her Line of Sight.
Compared to that.
The endless, continuous Trenches, Fortresses, Barracks, Railways, Heavy Artillery Positions stretching for tens, even hundreds of miles to the other side of the horizon, the Black-Clad Soldiers visible everywhere, and the large number of various Mechanical Armor and Vehicles driving around, with over a dozen Airships resembling Warships floating overhead.
The Visual Impact and mental Spirit shock all of this brought her were truly difficult to describe with her literary skill.
She only felt that the entire Heaven and Earth were permeated with the Aura of War, that the entire World was born for War, and that the Killing Intent belonging to the Army and Military was so thick it was almost visible to the naked eye.
Fortunately, she noticed the faint, strange Gaze of the people around her at that time, which made her react immediately.
She instantly suppressed all inappropriate expressions and reactions, pulled down her black Gentleman's Hat to cover as much of her Face as possible, and finally clenched her gradually whitening fists, quickly leaving the area.
But the further she walked, the stronger the shock in Meilard's Heart became.
Because she gradually saw many men in dark blue uniforms, under the watch of Soldiers wearing olive green Uniforms and holding Automatic Rifles, silently carrying out various Construction tasks, either using some kind of tool or operating some kind of Mechanical Vehicle.
It was then that she suddenly became conscious.
It turned out that those Houses, Bunkers, Trenches, Walls, and the Railways laid on the ground were all built by these tens of thousands, no, it should be hundreds of thousands, or even millions of Laborers.
However, the Gaze these people directed at her surprisingly held no Fear or hatred, but rather more of a Gaze of awe or fawning, while they showed emotions of resentment when looking at the olive green Soldiers.
Over the next two days.
Meilard used her disguised Identity and various Means of gathering Intelligence to learn a lot about the World Government.
She also quickly learned that the World Government had already conquered three Worlds consecutively, and the place she was currently in was the previous Otherworld that had just been conquered, Code Named 'Giant'.
This Truth caused her to first experience the psychological process of having her Three Views completely shattered, and then having to rebuild them.
"The enemy The Empire has to face is actually such an existence..."
Meilard looked at the Starry Sky outside the window, her mood very complex.
The place she was currently in was a clean Room she had requested in a remote Labor Camp under the guise of 'inspection'.
These past few days, Meilard had roughly come to Understand the Situation here.
The Laborers responsible for the Construction all came from another Otherworld Code Named 'Demon Slayer World', and the Soldiers whose Uniforms were olive green did not belong to the World Government's regular Troops, but rather to the 'Auxiliary Legion'.
The so-called 'Auxiliary Legion' was mainly composed of the original Armies from the World Nations of the 'Demon Slayer World'.
Besides providing Military Strength Support when the 'regular Troops' needed it, they were also responsible for helping to oversee the Construction Order of the Laborers. If someone caused trouble and affected the Construction progress, they even had the Authority to kill them first, then Report.
Because the number of Laborers was simply too large, even if some 'Auxiliary Soldiers' arbitrarily killed Laborers, as long as the impact wasn't too great, the World Government Officials in the area wouldn't pay much attention to the matter.
This led to great Conflicts between the Laborers and the Auxiliary Soldiers, but Meilard was confused as to why the Laborers didn't hate the World Government.
Logically, shouldn't the World Government be the source of everything?
Later, she secretly used the Secret Method to Confuse Minds and learned about their psychology from a Laborer.
It turned out that these Laborers from the 'Demon Slayer World' regarded the World Government as the 'Divine Court' of the 'Divine Realm'.
And the beings wearing the black Uniforms and Coats like hers were 'Divine Soldiers and Generals', so they didn't dare to have any thoughts of resistance or anything more extreme.
Isn't it ridiculous and suicidal for humans to hate Gods?
Well... actually, this also had a lot to do with the fact that they had never watched the Live Broadcast of the 'First Multiverse Combat Power Competition', after all, who would be idle enough to prepare Visual Den Den Mushi for these Laborers?
Otherwise, they might have lowered their blind Mythologizing of the Sea Star People after seeing the wonderful performance of the 'Hashira' of the Demon Slayer Corps.
In fact, the World Government, under Im's Influence, had never actively deified itself, because he was very clear that in the Future Otherworlds, there would definitely be beings who truly reached the Divine Realm.
If they were to encounter such beings then, and the World Government was still boasting about being Gods, only to expose the fact that they weren't actually Gods, wouldn't they lose all Face?
It was better not to mention anything about being Gods from the start.
As for what you yourselves imagine, that's none of our business~
"It's time to make a Decision..."
A rare look of hesitation appeared on Meilard's Face.
Because she was currently facing two difficult choices.
One.
Continue wandering like this, and after exploring this 'Giant' World, go see the 'Demon Slayer World', and maybe hook up with some cute Girls from the Otherworlds along the way.
Finally, find a way to sneak into the World Government's Home World, the World.
As for The Empire, she figured she must have been deemed 'dead' by now. If that's the case, then so be it, she would just change her Name.
Although she was a little reluctant to part with Akame, Mine, Taeko, Sheele, Modai, Tsukushi, Gilbert, Cassandra...
But she would definitely meet adorable little ones who could replace them in other Worlds~~
It's just, what about that guy Esdeath?
With her fanatical Rank of warlike Personality, she would most likely die in the War against the World Government, right?
Therefore, there was also the second choice.
Should she go back?
Go back and tell Esdeath everything about the World Government, so she wouldn't recklessly seek death by overestimating herself. It would be best to take her and leave together, living under assumed names.
Then, after The Empire was defeated by the World Government, or even the entire World was conquered by the World Government, they could come out and do whatever they wanted.
They could be adventurers, travel to different Worlds, or form small Influences or something, or directly disguise their Identities and join the World Government.
Anyway, there were quite a few options.
Actually, Meilard had thought before about directly exposing her Identity, openly contacting the World Government, and then joining, which might allow her to find an opportunity within to save Esdeath and those 'little ones' from 'Oarberg'.
But doing so also carried great risk.
First, the World Government might not necessarily be willing to accept her, or they might pretend to accept her and dispose of her after extracting her Value, or even if they were willing to accept her, she would definitely have to undergo extensive Interrogation.
This was something she was unwilling to do.
"What should I do, what should I do..."
Meilard bit her pink lips, extremely conflicted, finally lowering her head and muttering through gritted teeth, "Esdeath, you Bastard!"
Immediately after, she let out a long sigh.
"Ah—what a troublesome person~~"
