More-and Stronger-Troop Types!

Deep inside the dark, damp cave, scorching sulfurous steam filled the air, almost suffocating the senses.

Yu Xiaogang huddled beside a slightly hot piece of sulfur ore, his only remaining right hand pressed tightly against the rough rock surface, Absorb in the faint yet violent energy of the subterranean fire.

The Divine Power of Wrath, like a greedy parasite, Sheer Force transformed these mixed energies into Sisi of life force that sustained his broken body and repaired the slowly decaying wounds at his severed arm.

The excruciating pain persisted, but a strange numbness and an increasingly volatile power within him sustained him.

[That's fine.]

The voice of the God of Wrath carried a hint of impatience.

[This meager amount of energy is a drop in the ocean for your recovery. Now, go do what you need to do! Leave here, head three miles west, where a pack of 'Tusked Hyena' are fighting over a carcass. Their females are just entering their estrus cycle; their souls are clouded, but their bodies are incredibly strong—perfect first-generation 'mothers'!]

Yu Xiaogang's body trembled violently, and his energy- Absorb movements stopped.

Even though he had already convinced himself to accept it amidst his madness, when the moment came, the deep-seated shame and the last vestige of his human instinct to resist still made his stomach churn.

"Hyena...hyena..." His throat was dry and his voice was hoarse.

What are you hesitating for?!

A violent rage lashed at his soul like a whip.

[Think of your hatred! Think of Bibi Dong! Think of Lin Xia! Think of everything you've lost! What is this sacrifice?! Do you want to hide here like a maggot forever, waiting for them to come and crush you?! Act! Now!!]

The power of the God of Wrath Sheer Force activated, and a scorching and violent energy instantly overwhelmed Yu Xiaogang's remaining hesitation, leaving only a burning, twisted desire for destruction and a numb sense of execution.

"Yes... yes!"

Yu Xiaogang's eyes blazed with a crimson light, and he let out a low growl like a wild beast.

He supported himself with his one arm and staggered out of the cave.

It was already night outside, and the forest was filled with the smells of decaying vegetation and wild animals.

Guided by the God of Wrath, he moved stealthily in the darkness like the most agile predator. The Divine Power of Wrath had transformed his body, granting him strength and perception far beyond what he had ever possessed before. The excruciating pain from his severed arm seemed to have become a kind of stimulus, driving him forward.

Soon, he smelled a strong stench of blood and the distinctive pungent odor of hyenas.

Pushing aside a thicket of bushes, the sight before him made his stomach churn again.

Seven or eight burly, filthy, matted-fur Tusked Hyena!

Despite feeling extremely uncomfortable, Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath and used his divine power to knock the Tusked Hyena unconscious.

After confirming that the Tusked Hyena were unconscious, Yu Xiaogang did not hesitate and immediately began his operation.

Yu Xiaogang knelt on the damp, stinking mud, the thick, pungent stench almost solidifying, suffocating his mouth and nose.

Before him lay the strongest female Tusked Hyena, its belly revealing a chilling curve beneath its tangled, dirty dark brown fur that seemed incongruous with its wild physique.

It was no longer the gentle bulge that nurtured life, but rather like a bulging sac Sheer Force stuffed with a foreign object, so taut it seemed as if it would tear open at any moment, revealing an almost eerie outline.

A feeling mixed with intense nausea and a strange, throbbing sensation, like cold vines, Wrap his heart.

The feeling was sharp and unfamiliar, unlike any emotion he had ever known in his life.

This... is this what it means to be connected by blood?

Does it belong to Yu Xiaogang's bloodline?

"The God of Wrath..."

He spoke hoarsely, his voice broken and fragmented from days of torment.

"How much longer... will it take them to make their move?"

Every word seemed to be coaxed out of a throat hardened by grit.

In his mind, the voice of that raging will resounded with a twisted satisfaction.

[Three days! In just three days, these bastards will descend upon the world! Your 'seeds,' aided by my divine power, will grow rapidly, far surpassing ordinary beings!]

The voice paused, then became even more seductive, like a demon whispering in the Abyss.

[However, Yu Xiaogang, how can a true army have only one kind of henchmen? Tusked Hyena are brave but lack agility! Think of your enemies... Bibi Dong 'Rakshasa cunning and unpredictable Rakshasa, Lin Xia's vast natural power, and that nauseating holy golden light!]

Yu Xiaogang's bloodshot one eye suddenly narrowed.

Yes, a mere fearless charge would be less than cannon fodder in the face of such power.

Those figures, those condescending gazes that regarded him as dust, once again fiercely Burn away his remaining sanity.

You need more!

The voice of the God of Wrath was resolute and unquestionable.

[Go find! Go find those creatures in the forest that are born with a talent for slaughter, and make them the cornerstone of your Legion of Wrath!]

Where to look?

Yu Xiaogang's voice carried a hoarse quality, as if he had nothing to lose.

Shame?

Dignity?

They had long since been reduced to ashes in the face of the flames of revenge.

He Covet only power, Covet enough to tear everything apart!

Head east! Beyond that miasma-filled swamp! There dwells the 'Shadow Poison Dart Frog'!

The will of the God of Wrath was imprinted on his mind like precise coordinates.

[They are tiny in size, yet they can spray Toxic slime, killing instantly upon contact with blood! They are deadly assassins lurking in the shadows! Your legion needs this kind of silent death!]

Then, another direction was illuminated.

[Search for the 'Night Owl Soul Bat' atop the cliffs of the northwest! Their eyes can Infiltrator the deepest darkness, their Dual Wingbeat sweeping across the sky silently! They are the Ghost type sentinels of the sky, able to detect enemy activity Norman away! And more...]

The voice became lower and more somber.

[Journey deep into the mountains, where the 'Iron-Armored Rock Rhino' tribe dwells! With thick hides and immense strength, their charge is like a landslide! They will be the invincible hammer that tears apart the enemy's fortified strongholds!]

"Poison Dart Frog... Night Owl... Iron-Armored Rhino..."

Yu Xiaogang murmured these names repeatedly, each word like a heavy, filthy brick, building a twisted staircase leading to the other side of revenge.

In his eyes, the crimson light was no longer merely madness, but also carried a cold, focused, calculating anxiety. (Troop type!)

He needs more and more powerful troops!

Hyenas are just the beginning, far from enough!

He forced himself to look away from the hyena's horribly swollen belly, as if looking at it any longer would cause the writhing "veins" within to extend invisible tentacles and drag him into an Abyss.

He gritted his teeth and used his remaining right arm to support his broken body. Every bone in his arm was creaking and groaning, and excruciating pain shot through the wound.

He staggered, like a broken puppet that had been shattered and then pieced back together, walking step by step toward the eastern swamp pointed out by the God of Wrath, into the deeper and darker jungle.

The filthy muddy water reached above their ankles, and each step left a desperate footprint stained with blood and ashes.
