Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1679 - 946: Jupiter Prepares for Advancement

Nevertheless, they are keen on attempting to annihilate the Radiant Sun Tribe, seizing various spoils, and securing a position within the burgeoning overlord alliance. After all, taking control of the Radiant Sun Star serves primarily as a secondary stronghold and a strategic reserve for their main forces as they vie for dominance within the Star Nebula!

Driven by this objective, the Shadow Demon naturally desires the strengthening of the tripartite alliance. "Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly, Lonely Wolf Emperor, this represents our most effective tactic at present, and I, too, yearn for the Wolf Lord’s return. However, since the Wolf Lord and Nightmare are currently missing, the Wolf Pack Civilization must shoulder the responsibility alone. Jupiter has only just amassed sufficient Foundation and sacrificial assets; should a promotion occur, I expect the Wolf Pack Civilization to assist in repelling any advance from the Radiant Sun Tribe’s grand army! Our Heizi Tribe will handle any rogue factions attempting to meddle while aiding the Empress in the defense of Jupiter!"

This spiritual will transmitted by the Shadow Demon was entirely impartial. Given the current distribution of power, no single entity can rival the Radiant Sun Tribe! Their only hope of shattering the suppression of the Radiant Sun Star is to elevate Jupiter to a fourth-level star, creating a dual-sun sky configuration. This would provide the necessary resource hub to wage a war of attrition against the Radiant Sun Tribe until the bitter end!

Military forces must be mobilized, but the supply chain is the true priority! Without secured backup resources, all plans are merely delusions. Once a conflict ignites, it will demand a staggering amount of materials. Sustaining a massive army numbering in the billions is no trivial matter! If reserves run dry during the heat of combat, the ranks will likely dissolve into chaos.

This is particularly true for those rogue entities who lack faith and fight solely for profit! What the alliance fails to provide, the Radiant Sun Tribe certainly can. Just as the Shadow Demon and the Jupiter Empress were attempting to sway the various leaders of the Wolf Pack Civilization—many of whom were beginning to see this as the most viable path—a massive and domineering aura suddenly pierced the heavens from the Hundred Battles Army's defensive line, crashing down upon the assembly!

The sheer intensity of this pressure forced the Empress of Jupiter and the Peak Heavenly Venerate accompanying the Shadow Demon to instantly manifest their Dharma Phase Heaven and Earth. However, the tension broke almost immediately. As the aura stabilized and the figure within was revealed, the gathering was plunged into a brief, deathly silence before the entirety of the Wolf Pack Civilization erupted in a frenzy of howling!

Despite the members of the Wolf Pack possessing Cultivation levels and combat prowess at the Heavenly Venerate stage, they cast aside all pride and decorum before the source of this aura. No one had dared to hope that the master of this presence would be the Wolf Lord, who had been gone for a millennium! Before the various factions of the Wolf Pack Civilization could even process their shock, a calm spiritual will echoed through the area.

"Oh? I am told that everyone has been anticipating my return? Well, I have returned." This single message caused the Jupiter Empress and the Shadow Demon—who had just been lecturing on the necessity of the greater good—to fall into a stunned silence, their eyes betraying a mix of terror and disbelief.

....

At the exact moment the Wolf Lord reappeared, his overwhelming aura surged into the cosmos without the concealment of any Stealth Talent arrays or Mysterious White Clouds. Within the Radiant Sun Star System, a figure who had been waiting for a thousand years suddenly snapped their eyes open! Their frame surged with an incomparable atomic force, boiling over with raw power! Bathed in a shimmering fluorescence, the figure radiated a freezing chill that made it impossible for any living soul to look upon them directly!

"Wolf Lord, you truly survived! Haha, I knew it—our Unspeakable investor would not perish so easily! But now that you have resurfaced, it must mean 'Nightmare' has met his end, correct?" This individual was Qing Ming. Sensing the familiar aura, Qing Ming was overcome with joy and immediately established spiritual contact with the squad leader of the Blazing Nebula branch. This development had to be reported at once!

The squad leader had played an indirect role in the scheme against 'Nightmare.' Furthermore, since 'Unspeakable' had utilized three pieces of Spacefoil, the squad leader would need to negotiate the appropriate compensation from the Wolf Lord now that he was back. Moreover, the Wolf Lord’s reappearance significantly boosted his investment value! If he possessed the strength to eliminate an entity as ruthless and flawless as 'Nightmare,' then he might truly possess the potential to conquer the Radiant Sun Star System.

Should the Wolf Lord succeed in unifying the system, the brief investment—at the cost of resolving a causal conflict in the stars—would result in a level 5 Star Lord. Such an achievement would serve as a flawless record for Qing Ming’s future internal promotions. "Squad Leader, the Wolf Lord has survived. The final outcome of his clash with 'Nightmare' remains unknown, as I lost their trail during the pursuit; even the investment mark was obscured, preventing me from locating them. However, it is certain that the Wolf Lord’s power has surged once again! I have also compiled all clandestine assassination techniques related to them, including restricted Swallow Star Demon Body secrets obtained from the Illusion Demon Clan during the war."

As a causal line manifested around Qing Ming, she delivered her report with utmost respect. Time passed quietly as she spoke. After several hours, the connection was severed. Regaining her composure, Qing Ming set out immediately, heading toward the source of the Wolf Lord’s aura.

.....

Su Lin intended to groom the two humans before him as his spokesmen, and thus he rewarded them generously. He granted two hundred pounds of flesh to Sander and Tiffany, ensuring their continued survival. This act stunned the pair, filling them with a deep sense of debt toward the White Wolf. They never imagined that participating in such a conflict would yield so much food.

Sander thought back to his life in the Human Fortress, where he was a mere low-level novice, constantly mocked and belittled. In that world of dwindling resources, the highly sought-after Variant Species flesh was hoarded by the elite New Humans, leaving someone of his status with nothing. Re-evaluating his past, he felt more certain than ever about his current path. As for Tiffany, she had been viewed as nothing more than a functional tool by the Fortress leadership—expendable fodder like many of her peers. The fact that the Human Fortress had made no effort to rescue them during their time in the Arctic had long since crushed her spirit. Now, within the Wolf Clan, she was rewarded with fresh Variant Species flesh in exchange for her contributions. Simultaneously, both Tiffany and Sander reached a silent resolution.

Su Lin watched their reactions closely, sensing that their gratitude was sincere, which suited his plans perfectly. He understood that human society in this Ice Age had likely crumbled; even a small gesture of benevolence could secure the unwavering fealty of these two, making it a profitable trade. His eyes glinted with a sharp curiosity. What manner of powerful creature could slay the Mad Thunder Skyhawk and then boldly transport its carcass to the Land of Adventure?

Under the stunned gazes of the local predators, a White Wolf of even greater power emerged, moving with such incredible velocity that the eye could only perceive a blur. He passed like a ghost; by the time the onlookers could focus, the White Wolf was already standing upon a distant ridge. With a howl that pierced the sky, he led the White Wolf Pack further into the depths of the Arctic... This image was burned into the souls of the predators; the silver-white silhouette of the White Wolf would remain a permanent fixture in their memories, never to be erased.
