Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1878 - 1049: Star Sky Feudal Towns, Tenfold Vassals (Part 2)

Following the appointment of the eight mighty Star Sky Lords, the enfeoffment proceedings carried on without pause!

[Shadow Army Group]

Bit by bit, the Sand Fox has affirmed its crucial role via raw power and notable feats.

In both earlier times and the recent clash against the Sea of Star Sand, it pulled off vital tasks from the shadows.

For instance, it waged battles over public sentiment against the Sea of Star Sand, slipped spies into their ranks, manipulated diverse Exotic Beasts, and first uncovered how Exotic Beasts from various Military Groups faked their successes—all thanks to Shadow Unit Two.

With the passage of time, Shadow Unit Two has outstripped Shadow Unit One in infiltration depth, surrounding conditions, personal might, and sheer size.

Now boasting a staggering total exceeding thirty trillion!

Of these, the spies operating inside and outside total more than ten trillion, while the direct forces loyal to the Sand Fox approach twenty trillion.

Thus, Su Lin chooses to bring Shadow Unit Two out of the dark no longer.

At times, exposing a concealed force like a shadowy enforcement squad can wipe away dangerous ideas from Exotic Beasts' heads.

The Shadow Army Group stands officially formed!

Standing at the Peak of Nine Heavens, the Sand Fox wields a Source of Demonic primed for rapid rise, and received the tenth Heavenly Boundary Mark from the Six-armed Star Ape King courtesy of the Wolf Lord!

Leading under it, the Ghost Firefly has climbed to the Late Stage of Nine Heavens!

The Hundred-Change Dragon has advanced to the Mid-stage Peak of Nine Heavens!

The Colorless Dandelion has ascended to the Mid-stage of Nine Heavens!

The strong subordinates trailing the Sand Fox clearly show just how much the Shadow Army Group has grown and toughened up lately.

Once matching the Charm Fox in cunning plans, secretive nature, innate gifts, and fighting skills, the Sand Fox ranked among the elite.

There was a moment when the Sand Fox's uprising nearly toppled the core stability of the Southern Territory Mountains in the Wolf Pack Civilization!

With the Shadow Army Group now fully set up,

the Sand Fox gets named by the Wolf Lord as a Special-level War King, overseeing the Northern Starry Sky that touches the Red Sun Empire's borders.

It's charged with swiftly organizing and building the Trading City in the Wangshu Edge Zone!

The Ghost Firefly, Hundred-Change Dragon, and Colorless Dandelion all earn Upper-level War King status; truly, Shadow Unit Two's progress to this stage owes everything to their key efforts!

Still, despite the enfeoffment of the Shadow Army Group, it stays straight under the Wolf Lord's direct control!

Going forward, it will keep watch over the whole Sky Wolf System, from within and without!

Enfeoffing the Shadow Army Group right now just aims to link it fast with the huge Red Sun Empire.

Truth be told, beyond the Shadow Army Group, no other Military Group fits to handle such thorough insight and infiltration across the starry expanse.

[Mercenary Army Group]

This top-tier band of rogue experts, pulled from distant places, gets thrust into the endless starry void too, led by the Desperate Evil Tiger who grips the Space-Time Altar that once served the Fallen Black Angel!

The Mercenary Army Group counts about eight hundred million members, every one a Second or Third Heavenly Boundary powerhouse, serving as a swift-striking unit across this broad stretch of thirty to forty light-years.

It also periodically checks and audits the strengths in the other nine paths of Star Sky Feudal Towns!

As the Mercenary Army Group steps into the light, the Wolf Pack Civilization’s Fealty Ceremony draws to its finish.

No more peak Exotic Beasts or Military Groups receive enfeoffment, yet toward the close, the fresh rules and merit-for-battle framework of the Wolf Pack Civilization get restated anew!

In the end, heaps of raw materials and blood sustenance get handed out!

Each time this happens, even in the rigidly disciplined Wolf Pack Civilization, bits of unrest and clashes erupt.

After all, no Exotic Beast in any Military Group can stay calm before such a mountain of riches.

But thanks to the leaders from each Military Group and hordes of War Generals enforcing calm, chaos doesn't fully erupt.

Watching this epic Fealty Ceremony wrap up flawlessly, a touch of ease flickered in Su Lin’s gaze.

This grand Fealty Ceremony basically laid bare ninety percent of the Wolf Pack Civilization’s might for all to see.

Since the Undead Army Group, Mercenary Army Group, and Shadow Unit Two had lost their edge as secret weapons!

The count of secretly withheld Military Groups stays small, yet they rank as utterly supreme!

Supreme to the point where thinking of them sends shivers racing down spines.

Plus, the Undead Army Group and Shadow Unit Two's numbers swell too enormously to keep concealed.

As for the Mercenary Army Group, it's packed almost wholly with lone wolves who've held back for over ten thousand years, and it's tough for them to keep lurking in obscurity like ascetics!

On top of that, Su Lin’s hidden reserves—the Demon Breaking Formation Army and Nightmare Army—stand ready and potent enough!

These two sharp hidden edges suffice to force any Exotic Beasts, inside or out, to think twice before acting.

Next,

This complete Fealty Ceremony, just the handing out of resources, dragged on for hundreds of years, and gradually, every Military Group segment shifted to their assigned starry domains.

Among those, the outer ten paths of Star Sky Lords took turns bidding the Wolf Lord farewell.

Only the Charm Fox, still reeling from that crushing loss and suffering, skipped the goodbye.

Even the fresh Phantom Army got guided by the Shadow of Plague and the American Murderous Scorpion toward the Heavenly Horse Stellar System.

Su Lin caught sight of every detail, of course.

But he remains helpless to intervene.

In the end, no matter how unmatched the Strength, able to upend the turbulent starry sky, it can't reshape a creature's inner drive!

Should the Charm Fox, that former pinnacle and serene head of the Wolf Pack Civilization, overcome this trial, she'll likely shed her edge and fury, gaining poise and foresight to stride even farther!

Yet if she fails to surmount it, she might blend into the masses ahead, a fate Su Lin must endure.

Truth is, he was the one who first urged her starry ventures!

Still, mercy has no place in leading troops!

This lingering obligation won't halt Su Lin’s drive to enforce the Wolf Pack's iron hierarchy—might rules above, weakness below!

And with the vast armies launching far-flung journeys and swapping defenses, moments fade silently into the past.

.......

Post the showdown in the Sea of Star Sand, the Wangshu Edge Zone within the Blazing Nebula hosts just two dominant powers.

One claims the fearsome domain once ruled by the Sea of Star Sand—the Wolf Pack Civilization, emerging as the fresh overlord in this realm.

The other hunkers down in the frozen wastes shunned by most—the Black Sun Stellar System.

That said, clinging to the fringe brings a perk: leaning against the immense nebula barriers.

The Level Seven Late Stage nebula barriers prove tough even for forbidden outsiders to breach,

yet from within, an Ultimate Heavenly Venerate can usually rip a narrow breach.

So this adds an extra shield,

no matter the dire straits hitting the Black Sun Constant Star, an escape from the Blazing Nebula always remains possible.

That aside, the Black Sun Stellar System once backed the Wolf Pack Civilization, and after the big clash, the Wolf Pack lacks the drive or urge for fresh conflict, letting both sides dwell in harmony.

Meanwhile, the Red Sun Empire up North and the Bright Day System no longer qualify as fringe zones.

Their lands now brim with valuables.

Particularly the Bright Day System, where skirting the Chaotic Zone leads straight to the external Little Star Core Fragments.

Hence, it falls under the Wangshu Zone.

The Void Abyss Mayfly Clan to the West and the Hundred Stars Alliance in the East join the Wangshu Zone too!

At present, the full Wangshu Zone has reclaimed its old peace!

Amid this peace, a millennium whisks by in an instant.

Over these thousand years, thanks to the warning notices and praise badges issued by powerhouses like the Sky-Cunning Beast clan, Heizi Tribe, and even the Red Sun Empire, none dared challenge the Wolf Pack Civilization.

Indeed, the Wolf Pack Civilization, which crushed the Sea of Star Sand swiftly and earned nods from countless clans, might harbor some ultimate champions or hidden backers—who can say!

And during this span,

the joint trading hub from the Wolf Pack Civilization and Red Sun Empire starts shaping up nicely.

Su Lin sent the Shadow Army Group over, as the Red Sun Empire dispatched the Wolf Pack's old ally, the Red Peak Bird!

Together, they guard the spot and dangle loads of premium goods as bait, drawing in plenty of minor groups and wandering powerhouses across the Wangshu Zone.

The trading city's guidelines stay straightforward.

Buy a resource from the trading city, and the Wolf Pack Civilization plus Red Sun Empire offer paid escort back to the buyer's home turf.

For deals between clients, the trading city steps in as broker and skims five percent off each trade.

Bring in resources not sourced from the trading city yet still cough up the fee, and the trading city skips any safety promises!

Besides, are the Wolf Pack Civilization or Red Sun Empire known for charity?

Against gullible groups or Exotic Beasts eyeing to game the Wangshu Zone's trade setup, they'll unleash hidden killers for raids and slaughters!

Such ruthlessness defines the Dark Starry Sky!

Moreover, freeloading off the platform erected by the Wolf Pack Civilization and Red Sun Empire without pitching in—these Exotic Beasts and outfits better weigh if they can handle the fallout!

All told, the trading city's rise brings gains to both the Red Sun Empire and Wolf Pack Civilization!

This spurs their spies and scouts to hustle in hyping the trading city all over the Wangshu Zone.

Yet apart from a handful of trade hub talks, the two sides keep other ties at arm's length.

This leaves the once-pressing issues for debate hanging in limbo.

Though the Red Sun Empire and Wolf Pack Civilization appear to shelve plans against the Bright Day System, it doesn't mean the Bright Day System eases its defenses!

Right now, big shots from the Bright Day System pay visits to both the Hundred Stars Alliance and Void Abyss Mayfly Clan.

These big shots outrank the Yao Star King who popped in earlier for easy picks, towering far above.

After all, one commands Star Sky Lords of Vassal Towns beneath the Bright Day System, ruling at least nearly two hundred thousand fighters!

The other ranks as a quasi-emperor!

The Bright Day System boasts just two quasi-emperors!

One trails the Sun Emperor, locked in brutal combat amid the Star Core and Heizi Tribe,

while the other slips off quietly to the Hundred Stars Alliance base!
