I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Soon, Anno returned to the Elven King's City and rested his soul in the hut under the Tree of Life.

During this period, Anno also frequently studied Little M.

On the battlefield, Little M gave Anno a great surprise.

Little Mu, who has been fighting alongside Anno, has now reached level 29.

For a slime, a monster at the bottom of the world, to grow to the sixth rank is quite rare.

However, the level is not important; what matters is Little M's ability to find weaknesses.

In a closely contested battle, if one side is able to discover the enemy's weakness first, then the outcome is already decided before the battle even begins.

Anno also asked the elves for many books, documents, and even legends about the monster slime.

Although there aren't many slimes with strong combat power and high levels, there are always a few recorded.

However, no situation similar to that of Xiao Mu occurred.

After reading numerous books, Anno increasingly felt that the ability to discern weaknesses was not a slime's power, but rather a form of protection.

"It can't be such a coincidence!"

Anno waved to Little Mu, who was rolling around on the grass, and the latter immediately rolled over to Anno's side.

"Chirp chirp~?"

"Little Mum, do you know that you are actually a protector?"

"Chirp?"

"Little Mum, you're awesome! The Guardians are incredibly powerful beings."

"Chirp~ Chirp?"

"...Fine, go play!"

"Chirp!"

Watching Little Mu roll away to sunbathe, Anno sighed helplessly.

"Although I didn't sign a slave contract with Little M, it has always been able to understand my simple commands."

However, it seems that its intelligence has reached its limit.

Even if a slime becomes a Protector, it is still ultimately a slime.

If it were a higher-level monster, it might already be showing its true potential by now.

As for slimes, Anno really didn't know what they could do after gaining the protection of knowing weaknesses.

"By the way, should we sign a slave contract with it now?"

Anno thought of this question.

Gloria had previously suggested that she sign a contract with Mu to prevent Mu from accidentally injuring Anno if Mu went berserk—berserk refers to Mu suddenly attacking Anno when Anno is resting and unprepared.

Or, while following Anno, he might accidentally injure an ordinary elf.

However, Anno thought about how Xiao Mu was extremely dependent on him and would even actively use his abilities to help him on the battlefield, and still felt that the other party should have some intelligence.

It might not be high, but it certainly won't cause any accidental harm.

"Never mind, it's better to let it be."

Anno quickly put the matter out of his mind.

However, he was already thinking about a plan to help Little M become stronger.

Anno is now at the ninth rank.

Cultivating and leveling up is difficult, but participating in wars can lead to rapid leveling up.

But it will be over soon.

In addition, having the ability of [Divine Liberation], Anno is not keen on cultivation.

Upon learning that Little Mu might be a protector, he became interested in nurturing Little Mu.

......

The Elven race's decisive victory over the combined forces of the Wu and Lishan gods greatly boosted the morale of the Elven race.

The God of Darkness, who was severely injured by the Tree of Life, was said to have been killed by a lower-level god of the Void Clan a month later.

First, the protector was killed, and then the god of Wu fell. The Wu tribe suffered two heavy blows in succession.

In particular, the fall of the God of the Black Clan directly caused the Black Clan to give up any more ideas about attacking other planes.

But things didn't end that simply.

The gods in other dimensions are not united.

Upon witnessing the fall of the Crow God, a god immediately dispatched his followers to attack the plane where the Crow Clan resided, seizing its resources.

This event has made the already chaotic interdimensional war even more chaotic.

Some gods no longer used the pretext of hunting down the God of Summoning, and instead directly attacked other gods.

The chaotic war of the gods began to move from the shadows into the open.

And Angomulos did not get a chance to catch his breath in this chaotic situation.

As the plane where the Summoning God, the main figure who triggered the war of the gods, resides, Ungomulos suffered an even more frenzied attack.

Over the course of five years, the Elven race repelled wave after wave of extradimensional armies, but their own losses also grew increasingly severe.

Due to troop losses, they were forced to abandon the Ajilas Fortress in the third year after defeating the Uzbek army and concentrate their forces to retreat inward.

It wasn't just the elves who were affected by the damage.

The ten great empires of humankind naturally vary in strength.

The Sluru Empire, nestled amidst snow-capped mountains, and the Kangya Empire, situated in a desert oasis, became the first two nations to be destroyed by the extradimensional army during the God War due to geographical and resource constraints.

The entire Sluru Empire was mobilized for war, fighting for nine months against the relentless attacks of extradimensional armies in the icy wilderness.

After repelling three interdimensional armies, its people were slaughtered by a fourth interdimensional army due to exhaustion of resources.

The young Emperor Sluru, the ninth Emperor Victoria, a peak ninth-tier ice mage, faced with the enemy's attempt to recruit him, used imperial secrets to forever freeze himself, the kingdom's last thousand soldiers, and the fifty thousand extradimensional troops who had stormed the capital in the snow-capped mountains.

Emperor Kangya VII, in order to buy time for the people of the capital to transfer to other empires via teleportation arrays, led the Kingdom's Protectors, the Kingdom's army, and joined forces with church professionals and swift travelers to fight against the enemy.

He was eventually shot dead on the throne.
