"Hey, Luo Feng! Fancy meeting you again!"

He saw the familiar face on the ground, spitting blood.

The capybara spoke in human language.

Luo Feng was stunned.

There were many monsters on Earth.

Many of them were powerful, too.

But no matter how powerful they were, none of them could speak human language.

At most, they could communicate with humans through mental power.

So what was going on with this capybara?

Was I hearing things?

"Let's catch up later. First, I need to talk to this lady here!"

Compared to Luo Feng,

the capybara seemed far more interested in Venina.

It stared at her long legs the whole time, drooling.

Damn it!

I never thought that after becoming a mammal, my appreciation of beauty would be even stronger than before!

"You monster! You know that boy?"

Venina felt deeply uncomfortable under that blatant stare. The heat in its gaze made her both furious and inexplicably flustered.

She forced down the strange feeling and her eyes turned cold and sharp again.

"I don't care who you are. If you dare interfere with my revenge, you'll pay for it!"

Before she had even finished speaking, Venina's figure blurred, and her golden armor traced a dazzling streak of Flowing Light!

She knew this strange creature that had appeared out of nowhere was no ordinary foe, so she attacked with all her might from the start!

Those long, beautiful legs that had once captivated countless people had now become the deadliest of weapons!

Her right leg swung like a golden battle-axe, tearing through the air with a shrill whistle as it shot toward the capybara's head at a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow!

The fierce gust from her kick even gouged a shallow furrow into the ground!

This strike was powerful enough to smash an ordinary War God Level martial artist to pieces!

Yet in the face of this thunderous attack, the capybara merely raised a front paw clad in Cosmic Armor, as if taking its time.

"Go."

He spoke a single word.

In an instant, the Magic Cloud Vine wrapped around his front paw sprang into action!

The emerald-green vines, which had seemed so quiet and harmless, awoke like ancient serpents and shot forward!

As they extended, the vines swelled rapidly. Strange dark-red patterns appeared across their surfaces, radiating a heart-stopping, primitive savagery!

"What?!"

Venina's pupils contracted, and alarm bells rang in her mind!

She tried to change her move and retreat, but it was already too late!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Several thick tendrils of Magic Cloud Vine struck first, winding around Venina's kicking right leg with uncanny precision, as if they were alive!

More vines followed like green lightning, swiftly climbing up her leg.

In an instant, they had wrapped tightly around her waist, arms, and even her neck!

"Ugh!"

Venina grunted. An irresistible force surged from the vines.

All her attacks were instantly neutralized, and her body was held rigid in midair, unable to move!

She struggled desperately, unleashing her Origin Force as golden light flashed across her armor, trying to snap the vines.

But the Magic Cloud Vine was a plant lifeform carefully cultivated by Hu Yanbo, an Immortal Level powerhouse. How could a War God who hadn't even reached Planetary Level break free of it?

The dark-red patterns on the vines glimmered, binding her even tighter. Their powerful grip made it hard for her even to breathe.

She was like a beautiful butterfly caught in a spider's web, all her strength utterly futile against the Magic Cloud Vine.

The golden armor and emerald vines made a striking contrast. Those long legs that had once dominated the battlefield—

now tightly bound, their stunning curves accentuated, but no longer able to unleash their deadly power.

The capybara leisurely walked up to Venina, bound and suspended in midair, and tilted its head.

Its glossy black eyes took in the "long-legged auntie" up close as she struggled.

"I told you I wanted to get to know you. Why so angry?"

The capybara's voice came through the armor, carrying a hint of teasing.

Venina was both furious and humiliated. Her beautiful face flushed red, and fire seemed to blaze in her blue-green eyes as she ground out,

"You... Let me go! What do you want?"

Luo Feng stood to the side, stunned. Clutching his chest, he stared at the scene before him in disbelief.

Venina, who had driven him to the brink of death, was so utterly powerless before this mysterious capybara?

What were those strange vines?

The capybara ignored Venina's angry outburst and reached out with its other paw.

Carefully, so it wouldn't get scratched by her armor, it touched Venina's trembling lower leg, bound in vines.

"Tsk, tsk. Those legs... They really live up to their reputation."

Venina went rigid, feeling the strange sensation of its paw touching her.

Hearing those almost flirtatious words, she was so furious she nearly fainted. Humiliation flashed in her eyes.

"Bastard! I'll kill you!"

"What a temper. Feisty! I like it!"

As the capybara took an interested "look" at Venina, who was tightly bound by the Magic Cloud Vine, furious and humiliated,

it failed to notice the inconspicuous miniature sensor on the shoulder of Venina's golden armor, blinking with an extremely faint red light.

Though Venina's body was restrained, a glint of triumph flashed deep in her eyes.

Enduring the humiliation of being touched, she secretly activated the emergency transmission system built into her armor.

It encrypted and sent footage of the entire fight, especially the capybara speaking in human language and easily subduing her with its strange vines,

along with its unique life-signature readings, to the highest alert systems of the HR Alliance and the global War God Palace!

At almost the same time, War God Level powerhouses and the leaders of major factions all over the world—

everyone connected to the War God Palace network received an alert marked [Highest Emergency: Unknown Beast Emperor Threat]!

The video attached to the alert began playing automatically.

In the footage, Venina's fierce kick was effortlessly deflected.

Strange emerald vines that seemed to be alive wrapped around her in an instant, suspending her in midair...

But the most hair-raising sight was the creature wearing streamlined Cosmic Armor, with a capybara's head.

It was teasing her in clear, fluent human language!

"A monster that can speak human language?!"

"What is that thing? A new Beast Emperor?"

"Councilwoman Venina couldn't fight back at all?!"

"Those vines... Could they be a new plant-type monster? I've never seen them before!"

"What is it wearing? Some kind of technological armor?"

The entire War God Palace network erupted!

Fear, shock, and disbelief spread everywhere!

"We have to eliminate it immediately!"

"This is a massive threat to humanity!"

"Pinpoint Mist Island! All War Gods in the surrounding area, head there at once to assist Councilwoman Venina!"

"Release a global wanted order! Put a bounty on that... that 'Capybara Beast Emperor'!"

One order after another came from War God Palace headquarters. The eyes of the world's human powerhouses instantly turned toward Mist Island on the South Australian Continent!

Countless powerhouses began mobilizing and headed for Mist Island!

Among them were many long-renowned War God Palace councilors. Some beings rumored to surpass War God Level had even been roused!
