Defying the Fate of Beheading

Although investing means spending money, which makes Louis heartache, it is a necessary choice.

Whether to restrict the King of Fury in the Northwestern Giant Demon Tribe.

Or to adjust the industrial distribution between Tunisia and Ense.

Louis found it necessary to get involved in the matters of Tunisia.

In some high-tech industries, Star Continent is even more exaggerated than the industrialization of the blue star in the previous life.

But the major nations and related powers of Star Continent are more secluded, sometimes even less than the global maritime era of the previous life.

Without globalization and division of labor among countries, the difficulty of industrialization has increased significantly.

Moreover, the number of races on Star Continent is too numerous.

Different races, the gap between them can lead to immediate conflicts upon meeting.

For example, dwarves have been cursing elves with "long ears" for ten thousand years, while elves have been calling dwarves "stone heads" for just as long.

Don't even mention cooperation; even if elves and dwarves appear in the Adventurer Guild team together, you're afraid they'll start a fight.

So, upon realizing that globalization on Star Continent, at least in the current Star Continent, is almost impossible, Louis confirmed one thing—

[We Unite]

Instead of cherry-picking races in the corners unable to communicate, it is better to unlock the traditional skill of 'distant allies, close enemies'.

Although Tunisia is adjacent to Ense, the land actually bordering Ense is not much.

Because between them stands the special power [Tower of Eternal Daylight].

Strictly speaking, Tower of Eternal Daylight is not a country but a collective term for many free city-states.

Cities as units, city-states as independent entities, joined together to resist external forces, that's the essence of Tower of Eternal Daylight.

Louis's first reaction to Tower of Eternal Daylight was simple.

Isn't it like a shepherd kid acting as a strategic buffer zone between rabbits and bears indeed?

Due to historical issues, Ense and Tunisia, as two of the three human empires, have often been at war.

Later, both leaders chose to allow the area between them to become a buffer zone to avoid their countries falling into a tug of war.

And the natives living in this buffer zone gradually began to develop over time.

Especially when the Adventurer Guild entered, it swiftly fit into this nascent land, thanks to its free and unrestrained philosophy and mercenary nature.

Although Ense and Tunisia have large populations, due to their strong ruling powers, the Adventurer Guild appeared weaker instead.

In contrast to Tower of Eternal Daylight.

Thanks to its weaker overall strength, the Adventurer Guild has managed to build a reputation here.

Now, each city-state within Tower of Eternal Daylight has its own city hero and worships the Titled Strongman elected by the Adventurer Guild.

Of course, due to the presence of the Adventurer Guild, it's unlikely that a dominating force could unify all the city-states.

Because Ense and Tunisia won't allow it, the Adventurer Guild fears being a target of both.

Thanks to Tower of Eternal Daylight, the possibility of jointly building an industrial chain between Ense and Tunisia arose.

After all, Tunisia is at least a human empire, the two share similar races and living habits, in a world rife with racial conflicts, it is indeed Louis's considered best ally.

"We need Mayer Commerce Association to step out, and give the other world a little shock from a Transmigrator."

Louis chuckled softly:

"I am indeed very greedy, rather than seeking wealth, I pursue a nation."

"The greatest profit in this world is not monopolizing a sector, but directly sharing the growth bonus of a potentially vast empire!"

"Set a small goal first, let the flag of Mayer Commerce Association fly across the Tower of Eternal Daylight and into each important city of Tunisia."

Louis spread out the map of Star Continent and drew a circle on Tunisia and Tower of Eternal Daylight.

Mayer, commence!

Finally, Louis's fingertip paused on a line in the future diary.

[In some corner of Saint Louis Academy, tales of the Saint Louis Secret Chamber are circulating.]

[It is said that during the quiet of night, a branch corridor will appear on the only path to the Saint Louis Library.]

[If followed, it leads to a portal to some demiplane of the Ether dimension.]

[Inside the demiplane, there are secret treasures left by a past Hero Squad with special means to deal with monsters]

[Olivia accidentally stumbled into the secret chamber during an unexpected event and was lightly injured due to an item from the abyss, unconscious for several days]

"Alright, alright, now I must head to Saint Louis Academy."

Just that Louis felt a bit speechless.

What is the little swan up to now? How did she end up hurting herself?

Yet, upon confirming the existence of Hero treasures, he must take a look.

"Silly swan, watch as brother-in-law saves you!"

Thus, Louis immediately sent a messenger to Dragonbone Prairie, intending to lure over a future saintess.

Abyss item?

Do you understand the gold value of Libra Saintess!

The future diary clearly stated.

Even without activating the grace power, Grace could dispel the abyss item's power through grace protection.

Purely a special attack against the abyss.

…

Time swiftly passed by 2 days.
