Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1796 - 1006: Remnants of the Phantom Army, Blood-Soaked Prayer! (Part 2)
Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
Within every military group, including the most feeble Insect Race Army Group, the exotic beasts brimmed with fervent blood and surging spirits gleaming in their eyes.
This immense military power now ignited fervor and pride in Su Lin along with all the War Kings.
How much greater must this feeling be for their subordinate Exotic Beast Army!
All of them belonged to this colossal force wielding immense authority.
Observing this sight, Su Lin extended a broad spiritual will filled with contentment.
"Leaders of each military group, step forward to receive your Star Sky Battle Flags!"
"Yes!"
Right away, every War Emperor and commander at the peak of the Wolf Pack Civilization’s authority roared out a unified, thunderous response.
Each commander grasping the Star Sky Battle Flag etched with their group’s name sensed the immense destiny linked to it.
It felt like these Star Sky Battle Flags were destined for them from the instant they formed.
Shortly thereafter, with the Star Sky Battle Flags of every military group planted solidly at the front, the beasts felt the surging destiny inside, saw them waving in the breeze, revealing the distinctive soul pattern script of each group, and the spirits of the exotic beasts across the groups skyrocketed.
Though numerous War Kings and senior War Generals had heard whispers, no one presumed to confirm anything until the Wolf Lord declared it!
In particular, the tales of the Phantom Army led by the Charm Fox being utterly annihilated by an outside Star Nebula Great Clan stunned them beyond belief.
After all, the Charm Fox’s troops numbered in the tens of trillions of Strength; even among the Sky Wolf System’s factions, who would boast of devouring the Phantom Army alone?
However, fear evaded them, thanks to the silhouette on the tallest spot of the Star Dome Pointing Platform, which granted boundless security.
And precisely as the Star Sky Battle Flags fully spread out,
the Sand Fox, draped in the Black Soul Robe, gradually presented the survivors of the Phantom Army who had escaped the Heavenly Horse Stellar System.
The Heavenly Horse Stellar System lay more than ten light-years distant from this place.
For these Phantom survivors to arrive so rapidly, it was clear some power had rushed them back to hurl their challenge at Su Lin and the whole Wolf Pack Civilization!
These remnants of the Phantom Army, stained with blood, showed signs of savage torment, their gazes dulled and vacant.
Even escorted by the Sand Fox in the Black Soul Robe, they quivered in terror before the Wolf Pack Civilization’s immense, crushing presence, feeling dread rather than thrill or relief.
Even the veteran members who once trailed the Charm Fox shared this sentiment!
Only when the full tens of trillions of forces halted, gazing at them with puzzled curiosity in the hush, did the eyes of these Phantom Army beasts—long broken by ages of torment, intimidation, and killing—start to flicker with faint vitality!
As those veteran members truly grasped their return to the ancestral tribe after millennia, they first froze in shock, then burst with joy, and at last, crimson tears flowed from their eyes.
"Wolf Lord! Wolf Lord! The Fox Emperor barred us from coming back for aid, with Asura traps ambushing us en route. But their tactics are far too ruthless, too ruthless! We can't endure anymore, Wolf Lord; the Musk Ox King has fallen, the Murderous Scorpion clings to life, the Fox Emperor got seized. Our Phantom Army is doomed!"
"Wuuu! Wolf Lord, we've shamed you, shamed the Wolf Pack Civilization! We shouldn't have survived to return!"
Some veterans, numbed by torment and only now snapping back to awareness, shed blood tears as they bashed their heads with a paw, their forms igniting in Origin Fire.
"Wolf Lord! Don't pursue, don't pursue. They're a horde of nightmarish specters, and the Starry Sky contest is beyond us weaklings!"
At once, another Phantom survivor beast, in a wild outburst, clawed out its own eyes, then burst into Origin Fire.
Yet even blinded, in its burning agony, it appeared to relive the stellar inferno of the Heavenly Horse Stellar System, its shuddering Divine Soul writhing amid the blaze!
These displays let the exotic beasts from the Wolf Pack Civilization’s various military groups start piecing together the horror that unfolded.
For the War King-level beasts who’d already gleaned reports, the initial astonishment in their stares slowly gave way to fury and rage.
For the sight of allies’ despair and self-destruction never struck an army’s dignity and honor harder, as if stomped into bloody pulp.
Particularly since their hearts had swelled with passion just before, this stark opposition heightened the impact to its peak.
Quickly, the Black Robe Undercover Agents under the Sand Fox halted the leftover Phantom survivors from self-harm and guided them from the area,
leaving scores of self-ignited corpses behind,
and a few Trace Crystals emerged, glowing with visions that replayed the savage slaughter of the Phantom Army.
The visions proved too gruesome to behold, bloodier even than the Wolf Pack Civilization’s frenzied rampages to intimidate foes through merciless kills.
These visuals stirred unease and queasiness in many of the newer forces.
Still, the tidal wave of grief and wrath erupting from the Starry Sky Commanding Platform pinned these uneasy exotic beasts in place, unmoving.
