"Dagruel, are you alright?"
Dino quickly went to Dagruel's side and asked about his current condition.
Looking at the surrounding environment and the forcibly altered terrain, one could see how badly Dagruel had been beaten by Luo Hao.
"My life is not in danger."
Dagruel was thoroughly convinced by his defeat, and his words were filled with reverence for Luo Hao. "She showed mercy."
"I really don't understand you."
Dino was speechless. Had this guy's brain been damaged from the beating?
"So..."
Dagruel looked at the two Demon Lords. "What does the invitation mean? Can you explain it to me?"
Before Luo Hao left, she had entrusted the explanation to Leon and Dino.
Although somewhat unwilling, under Luo Hao's pressure, the two had no choice but to share the information they knew with Dagruel.
"The Great Jura Forest has been unified?"
Dagruel stayed in the westernmost region, with countless Western Nations between his territory and the Great Jura Forest.
Therefore, in terms of intelligence, Dagruel was clearly the furthest behind.
However, Dagruel still knew something about the Great Jura Forest. "So, Veldora has already met with misfortune?"
The Great Jura Forest had been Veldora's territory since ancient times.
Now that the Great Jura Forest had changed owners, Veldora must have run into trouble.
As for the person behind Luo Hao being Veldora.
Dagruel had not even considered such a thing!
What right did a mere Veldora have to cross into a higher realm?
In Dagruel's eyes, Veldora was just a fool who could not even control his own power, and he did not take him seriously at all.
"Not at all."
Dino said, "Veldora has already submitted to the Lord of the Monster Nation."
"Submitted?"
Dagruel was a little surprised. "That guy, he would also submit to someone else?"
"Hmm?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Dagruel realized something. He looked at the two in surprise, and Dino and Leon also showed the same knowing expression.
"The Star King Dragon?"
Just as Leon had guessed before, Dagruel also suspected that the Star King Dragon had revived.
Otherwise, why would Veldora submit?
And Luo Hao just now... although he could not force out her full power, the aura Luo Hao exuded undoubtedly had a significant connection to the Star King Dragon.
In Dagruel's perception, Luo Hao and the Star King Dragon were of the same race!
The same race... True Dragon?
Or, as the other party had said, a realm beyond the True Dragon?
"It's a Dragon God."
Leon explained, "When a True Dragon progresses further and reaches the height of the Star King Dragon, it is called a Dragon God."
The Dragon God realm is considered the highest realm that beings in the Cardinal World can perceive.
Higher than that would require breaking the world's limitations and entering a new dimension.
Even the former Star King Dragon had not achieved this.
No!
To be precise, when the Star King Dragon was first born, it was indeed equivalent to that realm.
But during the process of the world's birth, the Star King Dragon, who had acquired a concrete form, fell from that realm.
Also, in the original work, Rimuru who absorbed all the void energy.
Rimuru, who transcended creation, can also be seen as having broken through the Dragon God realm.
Currently, Rin's level is roughly equivalent to those two, or even a notch higher.
Using the more intuitive Little Garden ranking system.
A Dragon God is one who has entered the three-digit Authority realm, capable of easily destroying a universe when fighting at full power.
While Void Rimuru and the Primordial Star King Dragon are still in the three-digit range, they can exert power comparable to a two-digit being.
In Little Garden's definition, this is a three-digit anomaly.
Similarly, Rin, who has not absorbed the five Ultimate Authorities, is precisely in a three-digit anomaly state.
The Cardinal Universe and the Little Garden Universe are actually very similar.
Whether it is material strength or the composition of rules, both have many commonalities.
This also makes it relatively easy to convert the rankings between the two sides.
For example, a five-digit being who gains divinity and possesses star-destroying power can be equated to a Demon Lord of the Cardinal World, which is Special A.
An Awakened Demon Lord is a four-digit powerhouse, capable of destroying galaxies and dominating laws.
As for the three-digit beings above that... the battle between the former Guy and Milim almost destroyed the entire world.
Undoubtedly, both possess the power to destroy a universe.
And the various True Dragons are all powerful combat forces capable of shaking the foundations of the universe, and in any world, they can be considered main gods, or even kings of gods.
However, due to the immense gap within the three-digit ranks.
This caused Milim to be a three-digit before becoming a Dragon God, and still a three-digit after becoming a subordinate.
Based on the current combat power division under Rin's command.
The three-digit anomalies include Rin himself and his partner Violet.
Those who have officially entered the three-digit realm include Velzard, Velgrynd, Veldora, Milim, Guy, Luo Hao, and other Dragon God-level powerhouses.
Below that are the four-digit Awakened Demon Lords.
Even in Little Garden, these Demon Lords could become high-end combat forces of a divine pantheon, dominate a region, or run rampant through the lower levels.
The high-ranking members of the Monster Nation are basically composed of such individuals.
Below that are the five-digit anomalies, led by various quasi-Demon Lords.
Like Hakurou, Kaede, and the others.
Although they have not entered the four-digit realm and become Awakened Demon Lords, with their experience and unique Unique Skills, they can still defeat Awakened Demon Lords who have not obtained Ultimate Skills.
Rin's evaluation of them as five-digit anomalies is reasonable.
As for the lower ordinary five-digit, then the six-digit, and even the seven-digit... B-rank monsters generally have combat power equivalent to seven-digit beings.
And at A-rank, even typical six-digit beings struggle to fight them.
Especially with the special skills bestowed by Rin, it is not impossible for seven-digit B-rank monsters to fight against Little Garden's six-digit existences for a short period.
Overall, the current scale of the Monster Nation is already terrifying.
Rin is just waiting to digest the Ultimate Authority before attempting to reach Little Garden's two-digit realm, which is the Full Authority Domain.
If he succeeds, then soon after, Rin will prepare to connect with Little Garden.
There is no other choice.
The current Monster Nation is simply too overpowered for ordinary worlds.
To satisfy the subordinates' desire for battle and to achieve great feats, a suitable opponent is urgently needed.
Undoubtedly, Little Garden, with gods and buddhas everywhere, is just such a good place!
