Monsters Are Coming

Only upon reaching a youthful state can the charm of the assassin legion be revealed.

"Well done." He praised quietly.

The Dark Race warriors said nothing, silently watching, waiting for the next command, like a group of ruthless killing machines.

Tong Xin stepped forward at this time, taking out a dagger from the space bag, slicing open the chest of the soul beast, and extracting a pale blue crystal stone from it.

Analysis swept over, information flooded into his mind.

[Soul Crystal Stone]:

Material Analysis: Soul Beast Energy Core, residual weak rule energy (Sacrificial Emperor Zhao can obtain 289 points of sacrificial power).

...

The profits are quite decent.

Apart from cultivating the growth of the Dark Race legion, hunting soul beasts also provides an additional income.

"Stand still, wait for Dad to come back and feed."

With these words, Tong Xin launched another attack.

After preliminary testing, he decided to lure several soul beasts at once to improve hunting efficiency.

Outside the village, his gaze quickly locked onto a solitary soul beast, picking up stones to draw aggro without haste, hanging onto this soul beast while searching for a new target.

His Main Life Soul Rock Shield is now at Level 59, fully capable of withstanding attacks from multiple soul beasts. Thıs text ıs hosted at NoveIＦire.net

When he returned to the side of the Dark Race warriors, three soul beasts were trailing behind him.

Before issuing combat orders, Tong Xin decisively initiated taunt, ensuring the soul beasts' attack targets remained on him.

"Go!"

The Dark Race legion immediately moved, their small figures flipping through the air.

Like piranhas in water, surrounding the soul beasts one strike after another, quickly executing and absorbing the three soul beasts.

Calling up the interface, he saw that the levels of the 500 Dark Race warriors had all increased.

Among them, the hunting level growth was fastest for Commander An Shui.

Although the absorbed Qi Blood energy was about the same, the difference in strength was already evident.

Ranking each An Shui warrior by growth potential, with average growth potential set at 1 point.

Commander An Shui's growth potential was approximately 5.4 points.

Meaning An Shui absorbed the same Qi Blood energy, with strength growth five times faster than other Dark Race warriors.

However, the Dark Race legion's strength lies in its entirety; solely enhancing An Shui's power is pointless.

After executing the three soul beasts and extracting the crystal stone for the sacrificial offering, he continued probing into the village.

Pulling monsters, focusing fire... relying on taunt as a damage taker, Tong Xin proceeded with round-the-clock operations.

The number of soul beasts in the village gradually decreased through hunting.

The average hunting level of the Dark Race legion had reached Level 23, during which Tong Xin went without rest except to log off for changing nutritional canisters.

It reminded him of the intense working days to earn the game qualification for Dark Land.

Except now, despite physical fatigue, his spirit was incredibly joyous.

Witnessing the growth of the Dark Race warriors, their combat power rapidly increasing, filled the process with a sense of achievement and anticipation.

Even more pleasing was the rapid progress of the faith progress bar during the feeding process.

It wouldn't take long for the first batch of Second Rank faith to be born, at which point the acquisition speed of Power of Faith would significantly increase.

Not to brag, but at the current growth speed, he would surely stand at the apex of the player faction.

Creating a notable gap from ordinary players.

With Power of Faith alone, he could gain over ten thousand sacrificial power each day, as the Dark Race legion expands, his growth speed would rise exponentially.

Currently, the Dark Race legion has already been made into Life Souls, death isn't something to be overly concerned about.

The only issue is, once the soul beasts in this village are slaughtered completely, where to hunt next?

The place must not be too intense, also providing ample Qi Blood to be absorbed.

Environments meeting these two conditions are rare.

As for the Senluo Forest Region, once this area is cleared, he must leave.

While the environment here is good with fresh air, the monsters are mostly of the plant type and can't yield Qi Blood Energy.

It's not that there are no Qi Blood System monsters at all, the west region of the Senluo Forest is one of the territories of the Soul Returning Clan, there are definitely a large number of Qi Blood System beings there.

However, the Dark Race legion has no qualification to contend against the War Corps of the Soul Returning Clan.

The Soul Returning Clan can resist the Reverse Tide Army, bringing out any core force capable of wiping out the Dark Race legion.

Predicting the future, when players finish pioneering in the Senluo Forest Region, they'll face challenges from the Soul Returning Clan.

Then, the player faction will formally step onto the Pale Continent Region's stage of supremacy.

After a series of wild imaginations, Tong Xin's gaze looked forward.

Five soul beasts were firmly attracted to him, while the ghostly figures of Dark Race warriors interlaced around.

Like agile assassins, striking then retreating, followed by new Soul Returning Clan warriors stepping up to supplement output.

Soon, these five soul beasts were covered in blood, collapsing to the ground.

"Stop, time to eat."

To prevent soul beasts he's interacted with from being absorbed by the player system, Tong Xin decisively called the kids to dine while the soul beasts were nearly dead.

The process of devouring Qi Blood took only a few seconds, Tong Xin stepped forward to harvest the Soul Crystal Stone for Sacrificial Emperor Zhao, then led the Dark Race legion to continue roaming the village, seeking prey.

This village has a significant area, but he's almost explored it thoroughly.

There remains a location where the mist hasn't been dispersed, which is also his next direction of exploration.

Leading the Dark Race legion towards the Fog Zone, ruins were everywhere along the way.

One could imagine what happened back then.

Soul beasts are intelligent beings.

For ordinary tribes facing soul beasts, the scariest part isn't the soul beasts' combat power, but perfect camouflage.

Including memory and habits being mimicked, without analysis ability it's hard to differentiate.

Soul beasts would integrate into the tribe with the identity of the possessed, seizing opportunities to strike, bit by bit devouring the whole tribe or replacing them completely with soul beasts.

Completing possession from the tribe layer, can be considered as a dimension-reducing strike.

Even the Reverse Tide Army struggles to resist the possession by the Soul Returning Clan, with troop strength on the battlefield frequently joining the ranks of the Soul Returning Clan.

As for why the soul beasts in this village were not recalled by the Soul Returning Clan, most likely it's because the soul beasts here are too weak to catch their eye.

Upon reaching a dry well, Tong Xin suddenly stopped.

Standing at the well, he shouldered open the large rock covering the well and looked downward.

Finding nothing but well water, Tong Xin shook his head in disappointment.

One of the forum's exploration guides suggested kicking every bottle and jar passed by, checking wells, rooms, and such for unexpected surprises.

But evidently, there was none this time.

Upon reflection, if there was anything good, it would've been absorbed by the soul beasts with memory long ago, leaving nothing for him.

Just as Tong Xin planned to continue exploring the Fog Zone, a sharp broken wind sound came from afar.

Suddenly raising his head, he saw a dazzling ghostly blue light rapidly approaching the direction where he was.

Tong Xin didn't hesitate for even a second, decisively shouting:

"Everyone into the Dark Race Space, run!"

With that, Tong Xin swiftly activated the Dark Race legion Life Soul, releasing a passageway connecting to the Dark Race Space in front of him.

Instantly the Dark Race warriors were like swallows returning home, rapidly entering the space channel.

In less than ten seconds, the five hundred Dark Race warriors amazingly vanished.

Tong Xin decisively closed the space channel.

Bang!

The ghostly blue figure landed then, the impact kicking up dust, sweeping stones and building debris towards him.

A humanoid form emerged from the dust, with blood-red murderous eyes directly staring at Tong Xin.

Tong Xin also began decomposition.

Discovering the opponent was a Soul Returning Clan warrior with a hunting level of over 120, Tong Xin's tense body suddenly relaxed.

He realized he was about to be forcibly rested for an hour by the anti-addiction system.

The big one came after the small one was struck.

But it doesn't matter much, as long as the Dark Race legion is preserved, death is just death.

As a player, who doesn't die a thousand times over in a lifetime?

But this grudge will be remembered.
