"These Castle Lords can't be underestimated. Once the Castle Lords have developed, I'm afraid that even the Gods of Faith and Truth can't suppress them!" Near a battlefield, Celestia looked at the bloody battles and sighed.
Those creatures were crazy and only knew how to move forward. Such a large army, even if their individual strength wasn't high, the overall combat power that erupted was terrifyingly strong.
"Indeed!" Haru nodded slightly. The current Castle Lord Faction already had millions of Gods and once these tens of billions of demons in the second layer were wiped out, the number of Gods could be increased by at least ten times—reaching tens of millions. It was comparable to the whole Truth Faction, but just in numbers, not quality. These would only be Lower True Gods in the end while the Truth Faction had many Intermediate Gods, High Gods and even multiple Supreme Gods.
Still, this was just the beginning. When the Divine War began in the future, among other Castle Lords, numerous Intermediate Gods and High Gods would definitely emerge quickly.
"My Lord!" Celestia said, "For us, these mentally unstable Castle Lords, whose strength is rising so quickly, are an uncertain factor!"
Celestia was vigilant as she didn't want these Castle Lords to besiege the Great Aetherium again in the future.
Haru waved his hand, "Don't worry, no matter how strong they get, they won't become an enemy of our empire! There is a strong difference between their mentality and your. Even if they have grown stronger, their core won't change so quickly. We have already defeated them enough times to instill a great sense of fear."
"Furthermore, among the Castle Lords, there are also many factions who are my supporters. For example, the Holy Light Alliance, the Sisterhood Collective, etc."
Haru had absolute confidence because he was also a Castle Lord from Earth, and he knew that no matter how much these guys can cry on 'social media', they weren't united.
As long as he wanted, he could completely claim the rulership of the entire faction. Even now, if he just claimed to allow his subordinate Castle Lords and Rangers to stay in his territory, countless Castle Lords and Rangers would immediately agree. His identity as the strongest Castle Lord was absolutely unshakable.
After hearing what Haru said, Celestia also stopped thinking about it.
"Let's go!" Haru said, "Leave this layer to the Imperial Army. We need to clear the third layer."
With the addition of these Castle Lords, the battle situation in the second layer had basically stabilized. The demons would gradually enter disadvantage. His Imperial Army was also clearing the demon army with the High God Tier subordinates watching over them.
Therefore, Haru had nothing to worry about. His next goal was to clean up the two Supreme God Tier Demons in the third layer, as well as those pure-blooded High God Tier Demons.
After this goal was completed, the Demon Slayer Tournament would be completely over. Of course, only the competition would be over, and Haru's 'work' won't end there because his ultimate goal was to gain control over Arboriel's Laws.
He had asked Celestia to communicate with the Forest Goddess Phoebe. Regardless of whether she was willing to cooperate or not, he was ready to clear the third layer. In Haru's view, if Phoebe was willing to cooperate, that was fine. If not, then after he wiped out the two Demons Miltonic and Dantean, it wasn't impossible for him to clean up the native creatures in the fourth layer as well.
He wouldn't allow anyone to sabotage his plans to control Arboriel's laws as if they could be integrated into his Divine Kingdom, then Haru would gain the ability to cultivate Divine Crystals by himself. At that time, he wouldn't have any worries about recruiting adult Angels.
"We'll follow your orders, Lord Almighty!"
Immediately, the group of three went to the third layer. The space-time barrier arranged by Celestia could stop the Demons, but it couldn't stop Haru the Lord of Space-Time!
Under the shroud of the Space-Time Law, Haru took Celestia and Yvonne, easily passing through the barrier, entering the third layer.
Compared with the first and second layer, the evil power of the abyss in the third layer was even more intense—almost condensed into mist. In the third layer, there were more active volcanoes and magma rivers because it was very close to the planet's core.
"There are not many demons here!" Celestia said, "All together, it's less than 100,000, but what they have in common is that they are all pure-blooded God Tier demons!"
"One hundred thousand pure-blooded Demonic Gods and a third were even Intermediate Gods! There are also fifty High God Tier Demons as well as those two Supreme God Tier Demons!"
"Except for Miltonic and Dantean, all the others live in a city near the passage that leads directly to the fourth layer!"
Had it not been for the laws, these hundred thousand Gods would've swept the entire Arboriel's remnants by themselves and captured this planet long ago.
