The portable grandfathers that appear are all problematic.

At that time, he was only seven years old.

Like everyone else, what each of the old demon emperors could dream about on the first day of Xue's Law was their deepest memories, and the experiences they had on the battlefield in their childhood were a shadow that the old demon emperor could never get out of in his life.

He lost his parents and sister when he was 8 years old, becoming the eldest brother in the family. His younger brother and sister, who were only 6 years old, were also sent to the battlefield.

At this point, the precocious boy began to ponder the meaning of war, why carry out such meaningless killings, as if it were merely to eliminate excess population from his own tribe, a completely pointless act.

War...it's all war...

Xue Lude had a headache all night because it was all about war and slaughter, with no chance to catch his breath. Until he was 12 years old, when his last relative died in front of him, the old demon king's memory turned gray and countless images flashed like a snow screen.

……

When Xue Dinglu woke up, it was still dark, and he felt that he was probably suffering from neurasthenia.

Even in his dreams, he would be tormented by this old man again, with only memories of blood, slaughter, and corpses. Xue Dinglu felt that Zhu Chongba was not as old as this old man when he was young; at least Zhu Chongba could become a monk.

The old demon king was still watching dramas. Xue Law glanced at it and saw that he had already gotten to the Three Kingdoms period.

Next up is the Magic Book Catalog, and Old Deng will definitely make that old man's face when he sees it on the subway.

"Oh, you're awake?" The old demon emperor didn't say much, but suddenly handed a large stack of papers to Xue Dinglu.

"What is this?" Xue Dinglu took the thick A4 paper from his hand. It was hundreds of pages long, and every word was dozens of times smaller than a small six-point font. The paper was densely covered with text and pictures.

"I can't help you much. This is my blood magic, or a record I compiled from all the magic in the world. Perhaps this magical knowledge will be of some use to you. Consider it my reward." The old demon emperor continued to look at the Three Kingdoms, ignoring Xue Luding.

"They're quite self-aware, aren't they?" Xue Dinglu opened the magic book, but after a few glances, he couldn't bear to look at it.

This book, containing hundreds of magical records, mostly contains spells that come at a high cost and require pushing the body to its limits, but these spells often unleash power beyond one's own level.

In their world, a legendary-level being could potentially kill a fourth-tier mythical-level being with a third-tier spell.

This is the "black technology" they developed over countless years of war: how to unleash attacks far exceeding their current strength by squeezing out their own potential and physical capabilities.

However, none of these apply to Xue's Law; Xue's Law no longer needs this kind of "Seven Injury Fist" magic.

He rarely used even the power of the Zero Beast, which could cause radiation sickness. After using it once, he spent a long time using cursed blood and illusionary materialization to gradually transfer the radiation sickness away.

Aside from the old Demon Emperor's own blood magic, this is indeed a very low-cost spell, like an ability used by a traditional mage, rather than a self-destructive spell.

Xue Lude extracted the blood magic from the collection and placed it in the magic academy's library. Although blood magic also had some costs, they were within an acceptable range. At most, he would add a note saying "Not for those with anemia, highly recommended for those with high blood pressure".

As for the other spells that were designed for fighting beyond one's level, specifically for using small forces to defeat large ones, and for efficient killing, Xue Lude collected them separately and then sealed them. From now on, these would be forbidden spells, and only people in special circumstances could observe them.

Just as Xue was categorizing the magic contributed by the Old Demon Emperor, an invitation came from the Starship Legion's message board.

[Our team has found a civilization destroyed by the Apostles, but my partner is seriously injured. Are you interested in joining me to investigate that world? If so, please come to these coordinates. —Olivia, member of the Fifth Squad]

Xue Law: “?”

Did he actually receive a team invitation from the Starfleet?

But after reading this comment, Xue's Law instantly became interested.

The main point is that that world might be related to one of the apostles in the Black Mist Council, or it might even be the post-apocalyptic world after one of the apostles planted the tree.

Xue Luding felt that he could also reveal some information about the Black Mist Council to that member of the interstellar column face-to-face, so that he would be more confident when he called his own people to gang up on him.

So he immediately replied, "Okay, wait a moment, I'll be there as soon as I'm ready."

Xue Lude even thought about it for a moment. Wasn't the fifth squad the same as the brave uncle's squad? That was great. Although he wouldn't join the interstellar column, their ideologies didn't conflict, and they could cooperate in the long term.

Meanwhile, the problems in the Old Demon Emperor's world can also be investigated by the Starship Legion. Once they have investigated the Shub insectoid race in their world, that will solve the problem.

The people in the Starfleet are the experts in this area; he's just a novice.

Xue Dinglu immediately began to prepare. His first task was to ask his mother for permission. He felt that his performance in the previous world should have been acceptable, and he had not angered his mother.

He emphasized that with the Starfleet accompanying him, there would be absolutely no danger. After a moment's thought, the World Consciousness reluctantly agreed, since the Starfleet would risk their lives to protect Xue's Law.

This is like your own child wanting to go out and play, which might be a bit dangerous, but a kind neighbor lady says it's okay to take your child out.

Then Xue quickly made other preparations, including submitting a leave request to the school and arranging for his aunt's life...

Xue Dinglu's busy movements even made the old demon king pause his Three Kingdoms game and ask, "What's wrong?"

"Going to other worlds, it's still good to have an experienced senior to lead us. Oh, I forgot about you, Old Deng, would you like to go with us to other civilizations and see their history?" Xue Dinglu asked the old Demon Emperor, who was currently "thinking."

"A world like that Titan civilization?"

"I don't know, I've never been there, but it must be a not-so-pleasant world... otherwise the senior wouldn't have wanted to find a partner to go with." Xue Dinglu began packing his things with great interest, like a primary school student going on a picnic.

"Sure, other civilizations can also give me some inspiration." The old Demon Emperor seemed to have become somewhat interested.

So far, both the knowledge and history of Earth and the records of the Titan civilization have given this illiterate old man a completely different kind of shock. He even had the idea that it would be nice to keep going to see more worlds.

Just as Xue Lude was tidying up, the interstellar column's message board rang again. Xue Lude thought it was his senior urging him, so he immediately opened the message board.

"Teacher, I declined the Starfleet's invitation, but I learned the coordinates of the Holy Sword from here. Teacher, wait for me, I'll come find you right away. — Fafnir"

Xue Law: "..."

Chapter 216 The Little Queen Arrives in a Blanket

Xue Dinglu immediately packed his things quickly, even making plans for a long-term trip this time.

He was genuinely terrified of what kind of chemical reaction this thing called "Alaye's Blessing" would produce, so he hadn't taken the Faceless Mask off his face for the past two days.

"What's wrong? You look so flustered?" The old demon emperor asked, noticing that Xue Dinglu's movements had tripled in an instant.

"It's alright, time is of the essence, let's set off quickly." Xue Dinglu immediately packed up all the treasures in different categories, and then put the Tian Ting, which was being charged in the back mountain, back into his consciousness space.

Because they had just fought the old demon king not long ago, the Sky Thunder's energy wasn't even fully charged this time.

They also conjured up a lot of dishes and put some quick-cooked foods in the refrigerator.

After a flurry of activity, it was already getting light. Xue Dinglu realized it was a little past six o'clock, a time when people would usually be getting ready for breakfast and going to class.

"Is something chasing you?" The old demon emperor was even more puzzled. In his observation over the past two days, he found that Xue Luding was not the kind of person who was in a hurry. He did everything with ease and probably had several contingency plans in place to avoid failure.

This sense of urgency, as if I'd bought a plane ticket that would take off in an hour, is quite rare.

"No, no, no, it's really not good to keep the senior waiting for too long. I'll go and meet him right away," Xue Dinglu immediately explained his reason.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw his aunt, dressed in pajamas and holding a toothbrush, walking out of the room.

"I'm going to check out other worlds. I'll be back in about a week!" Xue Dinglu immediately said goodbye and left, running out like the wind.

Auntie scratched her head, looked at the mess in the room, and said, "Really, are you in such a hurry to escape?"

As Xue Dinglu was leaving the village, he happened to see a tractor that was churning and puffing, along with a large pile of flatbread and vegetables on the tractor, and the Silver Kingdom princess sitting on it and the knight commander driving the tractor.

I never expected to meet people from the Silver Kingdom at the village entrance.

"Oh, what a coincidence!" The little princess, wearing a headscarf, seemed to have also noticed Xue Dinglu and greeted him.

Xue Law: "..."

Judging from their huge tractor load of goods, mostly vegetables, they must have a contract with some vegetable market to supply them with vegetables.

"Are you still so short of money?" Xue Dinglu asked. To be honest, they had originally set aside several million, and with the additional several million from Xue Dinglu, it should be enough to renovate the guesthouse and repair the road.

After all, their renovation wasn't outsourced layer by layer; they did most of the work themselves, and basically only had to pay for the materials.

“Yes, advertising costs are high, but that’s actually to build up our guesthouse’s reputation and at least ensure a successful opening. So, the Knight Commander has already partnered with several food companies. When those bosses and executives show up, we can save a lot on advertising costs,” the little princess said. “We plan to invest 100 million in advertising in the first batch, and then see how it goes.”

Xue Law: "..."

He almost forgot about advertising fees, since in the information age, advertising fees might be more useful than the quality of the product itself.

Xue suddenly remembered that he had an account with tens of millions of followers, although it was on the external website TT, it should still be able to attract a lot of traffic.

"When will your guesthouse be finished?" Xue asked, hoping to find out the timeline so he could advertise it later.

You could even forgo advertising and simply create a short story as a drama series.

"It should be finished in about ten days. After all, most of the buildings were generated by Old Watson using magic peas. We just need to arrange the furniture and paint them." The little princess didn't seem to care at all about the problem of her sitting on the tractor.

By this time, they were almost in the city center, and the commuters and students during the morning rush hour were all looking at the tractor carrying people with surprise.

"OK, I can help you promote it then." Xue Dinglu made an OK gesture. After all, he also had a 30% share, and he felt a little embarrassed to just take the money. It would be good to do some promotion.

The two parties parted ways at a fork in the road; they were going to connect with other food manufacturers, while Xue Luding headed towards the school.

At this moment, the old Demon Emperor, who had been silent all along, said, "Is she from the Titan civilization? I feel like I've seen her in that fairytale world before."

“You should say she’s a Fantasy Titan, but she’s been solidified by the Evil Eye’s power,” Xue Dinglu said. “But for her now, as soon as she returns to that fairytale planet, she will disappear. For her, it’s probably no different from being dead.”

"So I kept her here. She was thinking of opening a bed and breakfast at my place, and recently she's been renovating it and also farming and selling vegetables," Xue Dinglu said, describing the current situation of the people in Baiyin.

"Hmm...not bad. It's quite impressive that a princess would do such rough work herself, completely disregarding her status. I just looked at her hands, and there are quite a few scrapes and chafings on them. Farm work isn't easy." The old demon king commented, watching the tractor gradually disappear into the distance.

Xue Lude stared speechlessly at the old demon king, thinking to himself, "How come you all have such keen observation skills?"

The brave uncle is like that, the old undead is like that, and you, the old demon king, what were you doing observing that little girl's hands for?

"If the nobles in my world had half the awareness of this little girl, I would feel gratified." The old Demon Emperor seemed to be sighing again. He looked at the two people in the distance and could sense that the Knight Commander was a legendary-level being, although he was a sealed legendary-level being.

The fact that such people were personally driving tractors to deliver goods, with the little princess even helping out, was something the old Demon Emperor couldn't even imagine; it was something the nobles of their world could do.

Xue Law didn't know how to respond. The old Demon Emperor seemed to belittle the people in their world to the point of being worthless. Although Xue Law also felt that the primitive society-like world was terrible, it wasn't as worthless as he thought.

So they killed too few. The old Demon Emperor was too merciful. According to Xue's Law, even if they didn't kill all the nobles, they should at least make an example of them to deter others, so that the whole world would be stable.

The old Demon Emperor may be a good person, but he is definitely not a good emperor. For a political being, things should not be considered from the perspective of "morality" or "ideals." A political being should be so pure that everything should be based on interests and stability.

After finishing his work and handing the leave slip to the department head, Xue Dinglu said, "Let's leave quickly."

"A post-apocalyptic world, how many people are still alive in that world?" The old Demon Emperor also arrived in front of Xue Luding's teleportation portal, watching Xue Luding fiddle with the fixed teleportation portal.

"I don't know, but there should still be quite a few civilizations and living people, otherwise the senior wouldn't have bothered to investigate; he could have just issued an extinction order and blown up that planet." Xue Dinglu sent the coordinates from the message board, and the portal began operating the next moment.

He knew that the Starfleet members weren't entirely saintly; they were very decisive when killing insects and cleaning up disasters. For example, after the Great Sage's homeworld was completely occupied by the Shub insectoids, they were blown up without any hesitation.

Because if they hesitate, the Shub insectoids might once again release countless more eggs onto other planets in the vicinity, with even more serious consequences.

Therefore, if the post-apocalyptic world civilization no longer exists and all humanity has perished, the Starfleet will not send anyone to investigate, but will simply blow it up to prevent the remaining Divine Tree Organization from spreading to other planets.

It would be a grave mistake to hold naive ideas in the face of such a natural disaster. Save if you can, and bomb if you must. Xue's Law also believes that this concept is not problematic.

[An unusual portal has been detected. Hmm, it seems to be someone you know?]

A message from his mother suddenly reached Xue Daolu, leaving him speechless as he was about to leave.

Why is that girl moving so fast?

I'll definitely let you experience the true value of a 715 junior high school curriculum (15 classes a day, 7 days a week).

Without saying a word, Xue Dinglu stepped into the teleportation portal.

……

At this moment, in Xue Dinglu's courtyard, his aunt, who was hanging clothes to dry, stared speechlessly at the sudden teleportation portal.

Then, a little girl wearing a thick coat, as if she were wrapped in a whole quilt, stepped out of the portal, along with two attendants dressed in armor who seemed to be her personal guards.

“Teacher, old… um…” Fafnir stared blankly at everything in front of her.

aunt:"……"

She glanced at the sun in the sky. It wasn't even October yet, and the average temperature in Jiangcheng was around 15-20 degrees Celsius, thanks to the autumn rains that had brought a drop in temperature a few days ago. Meanwhile, the little girl opposite her seemed a bit dim-witted, still wrapped in a thick coat that looked like a quilt...

That thing looks like something you'd wear to an Arctic research station.

"This is a private area. Don't trespass, or I'll call the police." Auntie took out a cell phone and pointed at it. She wondered which mythical family dared to open a portal at will in this era.

She only remembered that after the Age of Gods ended, it seemed that only those associated with Xue's Law had some authority to use magic.

Including the group in Silver City, they should now be considered "vassals" of Xue's Law, since their existence is basically derived from the "illusion manifestation" of the Evil Eye. Now that illusion manifestation has become Xue's Law's ability, they have a little bit of means to use magic.

However, based on my understanding, the magic they could use was limited; it seemed that the old mage had suffered a mental breakdown after only a few spells were developed.

Like her, after the Age of Gods ended, she was unable to use magic and potions, and had been fighting with "pseudo-cursed blood".

Looking at her aunt hanging out the laundry, Fafnir spotted a few pieces that looked very familiar (those that Xue Dinglu had worn), and instantly recognized them.

Sure enough, I didn't come to the wrong place! This is the world of teachers!

Chapter 217 Hey, little girl, your days of opening portals at will are over.

She wanted to sense her teacher's location again and then open the portal, but suddenly, she couldn't feel the spiritual particles in the air, a situation that momentarily stunned her.

"Hey, little girl, the days of you opening portals at will are over." Auntie shook the water off her hands and shook the clothes she had just washed.
