In this chaotic world, it all started when they found an elf girl.

Having resolved the matter with the Loki Familia, Roy returned to the Star Court. He didn't hide his relationship with Rivera from the girls, who already knew. Upon learning of Roy and Rivera's experiences in the uncharted dungeons, Tione, Daphne, Lily, and the other girls felt both pity and envy, and naturally didn't object, readily accepting him as their new companion.

Ryu and Lefia had the most complicated feelings.

The two women looked at Roy with a hint of resentment in their eyes. As elves, they held deep respect for Riveria, the elven royal family, yet now they shared the same man as Riveria.

Roy had no choice but to hold their little hands and coax them until he finally calmed them down.

"If Lady Riveria is willing, then so be it."

Ryu muttered softly, as if she had remembered something. She patted Roy's back and said, "Roy, go to the courtyard and check on the child in the lake." Hearing "courtyard and lake," Roy immediately understood who Ryu was referring to. The beautiful artificial lake currently only had one resident—the mermaid heretic, Mari. Roy went to the courtyard and called out softly.

"Roy..." The mermaid girl Mary surfaced upon hearing the voice. When she saw Roy, her expression was one of surprise and joy, but that joy was fleeting. She was not as lively as usual, and tears welled up in her eyes, rippling outwards.

"Reed, Rey, and Gross are dead." Mary's voice was sorrowful, and crystal tears slid down her smooth cheeks like broken pearls.

Aside from Loki returning them to Heaven, the Heretics suffered the most devastating losses.

Because Oceanus's agreement with Roy did not include monsters, he could instantly kill all heretics with a wave of his hand, including Asterios, who was almost at LV.9. This is the true terror of a god.

"Mary."

Roy looked at the grief-stricken Mary, reached out his large hand, and gently pressed it against her trembling head: "I can sense Reed and Rey's souls; there is still hope for them to be saved!"

Mary abruptly looked up, tears clinging to her eyelashes, her pale green eyes suddenly gleaming with disbelief: "R-really?!" "Yes!"

Roy nodded. He hadn't lied to the other party; the skill "Netherworld Soul Chaser" was specifically designed for this purpose.

Although he didn't see Reed, Rey, or the other heretics in the Underworld, he clearly sensed their presence and they hadn't disappeared yet. Although he didn't know what Rhea wanted to do, she certainly hadn't allowed the heretics' souls to be reborn as new monsters. And there was also the legendary selection chest in the hands of the rescued Hiroi, which contained items for reshaping the body.

Roy gripped Mary's small hand tightly, his gaze resolute: "I will definitely save them!"

"Yes!" Mary nodded vigorously, hugging Roy tightly, hope and joy flowing through her chest.

Seeing this scene, Ryu, Astrea, and the others who were hiding in the mansion felt relieved. It was Roy who had to step in. Over the time they had spent together, they had grown fond of the pure and innocent Mary and couldn't bear to see her immersed in grief.

After calming Mary down, Roy didn't linger long. Dealing with Rhea and rescuing the Heretic's soul both required formidable combat power. His answer was the Mimicry Challenge Room!

He released it, placing it in Babel Tower Square, providing a training ground for people. It was an extremely ordinary-looking, even somewhat dilapidated, stone house. One of the rewards dropped by defeating "Mimic Roy" was a quasi-god-level item. Its interior space could be freely adjusted, expanding to a vast area of ​​nearly 100 million square meters. It almost perfectly replicated any human or monster that entered the room, creating a "Mimic Puppet" with the same physical parameters, combat skills, experience, and even some skills and magic as the original!

Challengers fight against their own clones, and by defeating them, they can obtain refinement and sublimation.

Upon hearing this news, adventurers from the Freya Familia, Loki Familia, and the school district flocked to the scene, and the girls from the Astrea Familia also squeezed inside.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, on the vast simulated battlefield of the Mimicry Challenge Room, light and shadow intertwine, and roars resound continuously.

Liu, Ota, Leon, Finn, Grace, and dozens of other top adventurers fought fiercely with their respective "clones," resulting in a stalemate and a close contest.

In order to achieve the most thorough training, they even removed their top-level armor, bringing their strength infinitely close to that of their clones. Then, with their wisdom and perseverance, they pushed their limits and wore down their opponents to death!

"The Wind of Light!"

Ryu and his clone finished their incantations simultaneously, unleashing a barrage of densely packed emerald-green orbs that clashed wildly, illuminating the scene with fiery light and creating deafening explosions. "Hah!"

Leon roared, his greatsword whipping up a whirlwind as he fiercely clashed with his mirror image, whose movements, expressions, and even eyes were identical to his own. Sparks flew and violent shockwaves rippled outwards.

On the other side, Ota remained silent as a mountain, but each strike contained the immense power to split mountains and shatter rocks. His clones countered with perfectly synchronized movements, and dull thuds exploded simultaneously, causing the ground to crack layer by layer.

The Mimicry Challenge Room is hell for ordinary adventurers, but for Ryu, Tione, Ota, Finn, and others, it's incredibly fun. Because it's a battle against other people!

Unlike defeating monsters, fighting adventurers is the best way to improve your stats, experience, and skills. Normally, it's very difficult to find people of similar strength, but now you can challenge them endlessly.

Moreover, it is a perfect mirror image of oneself, through which one can identify and fill in any gaps, and continuously improve one's strength.

Even if they defeat their clones and gain increased strength, upon re-entering the Mimicry Challenge Room, the resulting puppets will replicate new stats. This process can repeat indefinitely!

Challenge yourself, and through one incredible comeback after another, your abilities will skyrocket, leading to great achievements!

Ryu, Tione, Tiona, Algana, Baje, Leon, Ota, Finn, Riveria, and Grace all reached LV.9! The others also gained something; the number of adventurers at different levels (LV.8, LV.7, LV.6, LV.5) in Orario skyrocketed, resulting in a surge in combat power. The gods were dumbfounded. Where did Roy get such an item? Spatial folding technology + perfect mimicry replication—that's the realm of the gods! The most eye-catching figures in the mimicry challenge room were naturally Roy and Alfia. The former used spatial magic with his clone, their figures flashing past rapidly, dazzling the eye; the latter clashed magically with her clone, the light waves emitted by the golden bell devastating the heavens and earth.

"Huff! Huff! I'm so tired. How many clones did you defeat?" Asifi panted, covered in sweat, and looked at her friend Tsubaki Kobrand.

"Just the third time."

Chun replied, glancing at Roy and Alphia in the distance: "Those two are the monsters!"

Asphie nodded in agreement, deeply understanding the situation. Roy and Alphia had defeated their clones at least ten times each, their strength seemingly from another dimension. The battle was gradually drawing to a close.

As the two inflicted fatal wounds on their clones, Roy and Alphia's mimicry let out a furious roar of resentment before their bodies dissipated into specks of light. Roy and Alphia exchanged a glance, seeing each other's helplessness. Even after defeating their clones more than a dozen times, their abilities hadn't increased in the slightest, and achieving their great feat remained a distant dream.

A barrier called "humanity" stood in their way!

"Roy!"

When Roy dealt with the clone, Ota raised his sharp eyes, his gaze shooting out like a tangible spear. A strong fighting spirit rose from his body, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Ota strode over to Roy.

"Stop!"

As Ota was about to enter the territory of the Astrea Familia, Ryu, Tione, Tiona, Algana, and Baje appeared as if by magic, blocking Ota's way, their swords held against the pigmen from all sides.

The Mimicry Challenge Room is spacious enough that each clan is divided into different areas for separate training.

Defeating one's own clone usually requires exerting all one's strength and pushing to the limit. If someone were to suddenly attack at that moment, the consequences would be unimaginable. Apart from members of their own clan, few clans dare to allow outsiders nearby. Human nature is unpredictable; no matter how close the relationship, there is always risk. The aura emanating from the five LV.9 powerhouses was chilling, and everyone was shocked. The Astrea Familia was far too powerful. Including Roy and Alphia, there were a total of seven LV.9 adventurers—a number far exceeding others!

And the quality is ridiculously high!

Roy said, "It's alright, let him come over."

Ryu, Tione, and Tiona then stepped back to let Ota enter their own area.

"Fight me." Ota's voice was deep, yet it conveyed an unwavering determination.

The whispers around them stopped abruptly. Everyone held their breath and looked at Ota in astonishment. The other party actually wanted to challenge Roy. But it was normal. Ota had also chased after Zeus and members of Hera's Familia to challenge them. He gradually grew stronger while being beaten up all the way.

Since the destruction of the two great clans, there have been virtually no figures in the world worthy of Otto's challenge. Fighting Leon, who was of the same level, could hardly be called a "challenge." Now, times have changed.

With Roy's rise and Alphia's resurrection, Ota has new foes to challenge, and everyone seems to have returned to the past—that vibrant era.

Roy replied, "Sure!"

Bang!

With Roy's permission, Ota exerted his strength, and the ground beneath his feet exploded with a deafening roar. His burly body transformed into a blurry afterimage, and with a speed several times greater than before, he unleashed an unstoppable momentum, like a cannonball fired into the sky, hurtling straight toward Roy.

In the blink of an eye, Ota rushed in front of Roy.

"Drink!"

Ota roared furiously, raising his greatsword and slashing forward, channeling all his power into it, splitting the air in his path as if he were cleaving the world in two. Seeing Ota's fierce attack, everyone was shocked. So strong! In such a short time, this pig-man had almost adapted to the power of LV.9. How would Roy deal with Ota, who was also LV.9? Everyone was extremely curious.

boom!

The next second, a dull sound exploded.

As if a swift black shadow had swept past, Ota's vision blurred, and his expression froze instantly. From his perspective, Roy had not used spatial magic, but the movement was so fast that his body could not react in time.

Roy dodged to the side, slapping the broad blade with one hand. The powerful force propelled Ota's body uncontrollably, and in the midst of the spin, he slapped Ota across the face, sending him flying.

thump!

Ota's burly body flew backward at an even faster speed than before, spinning in mid-air before crashing heavily to the ground hundreds of meters away. He struggled, but was unable to stand up again, collapsing completely to the ground.

Roy shook his slightly sore hand as if he had only done a trivial thing.

The room was deathly silent.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, horrified, their faces filled with unbearable shock. Ota, who had just reached LV.9, was so utterly vulnerable in front of Roy, being sent flying like a spinning top by Roy in a single move.

Even the gods were thinking, "Impossible!" They knew Ota would lose, but the difference between those of the same level wasn't as great as that between those of different levels. Ota, known for his endurance, should be able to last at least a few hundred rounds.

Back then, even without Roy using spatial magic, LV.7 Ota was able to fight him to a standstill.

The gods who created the system of divine grace looked at the calm and composed Roy and seemed to understand something. This young man had reached the limits of humanity! He was far beyond the reach of ordinary LV.9 adventurers!

Roy's sharp gaze swept over the gods and adventurers present. He took out the "Mimetic Challenge Room" item, knowing that some people might have ulterior motives. He also wanted to intimidate the various clans and gods.

Otta just happened to be there, so why not take advantage of it?

The result was better than expected.

Those gods and adventurers present who harbored ulterior motives instinctively avoided Roy's gaze, silently lowering their heads and concealing their own thoughts. Commanding the World Tree to suppress Oceanus, slaying Leviathan and Behemoth, repelling Rhea, and contributing the Mimicry Challenge Room... brought Roy's prestige to its zenith.

Roy, who possesses the "Godslayer" skill, will be the absolute main force in the fight against the fallen gods in the future.

The adventurers who had experienced Oceanus's control over the water in his body looked at Roy with a mixture of awe and barely concealed envy. Who would have thought that slaying a god would have such benefits?

That skill—resisting divine power and attacking gods—was precisely what allowed Roy to display superhuman combat power in his battles against fallen gods and immortals.

"Killing gods is good..." someone muttered under their breath, their tone full of longing.

This statement expresses the sentiments of many people.

God-killing is good, they want to kill gods too!

Who wouldn't want to possess skills that transcend the mundane and allow them to face the gods without fear? Especially after witnessing the calamities caused by fallen gods, the desire for higher levels of power has become stronger than ever before.

Ironically, acquiring this skill wasn't difficult. Three-legged toads were hard to find, while two-legged gods with little combat power were everywhere. Inside the mimicry challenge room, only heavy breathing and a silent yearning for greater power grew wildly in everyone's hearts. The gods keenly sensed the change in atmosphere; the adventurers around them were looking at them with strange eyes, and they turned pale with fright and fled in panic. "There are always treacherous subjects trying to harm me!"
