Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1872 - 1046: Immediate Execution, Roach Emperor Cast Aside!

Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
Su Lin focused on refining the three soul bones and Dimension Heart, advancing his combat power toward the peak below the taboo while time slipped away amid the vast changes in the Wangshu Edge Zone following the Sea of Star Sand's annihilation. Small forces banded together in desperation, and elite hunters from the Hao Ri Princess, Godspeed Golden Eagle, Five Great Military Groups, and Roach Emperor pursued remnants, but falsified achievements by outside forces prompted the Wolf Lord's strict heavenly order, leading to arrests including the Ink Blood Cockroach King and a temporary calm. Thirty years later, with the Wolf Pack Civilization solidifying control over three to four light-years of starry sky, military groups gathered for an awarding ceremony, where Su Lin examined the captured Siberia Tiger Meng Hu before ordering his confinement and rewarding loyal wolves like Xiao Hui and Little Lone Wolf with Variant Species Flesh, sparking a joyous celebration in the cave.

Amidst the eager expectations, the initial reveal wasn't resources at all, but instead the Ink Blood Cockroach King alongside a group of War Generals jailed for slaughtering the innocent, fabricating victories, and indulging in countless atrocities!

Along with several vital rebel commanders seized yet spared from execution, like the Radiant Sun Ninth Prince, Sun System Peak Venerable, Fallen Black Angel, and various other elite generals who once served the Wolf Pack Civilization.

For this triumph in the Starry Sky Great War had truly showcased the supreme might and dominant status of the Wolf Pack Civilization!

Yet simultaneously, nearly all Exotic Beasts grew overly cocky, seeming ready to overlook every other stellar hero!

From time immemorial, overconfident forces are doomed to fail!

Thus, Su Lin realized the need to curb this swelling pride!

He desires a genuinely unbreakable Iron Army,

not one that triumphs in a lone fight, builds up a bit of morale and discipline, and then swells with arrogance.

"What’s happening here? Wasn’t this supposed to be the reward event? What does the Wolf Lord intend to pull off?"

Certain Exotic Beasts gazed upon the wretched War Generals and rebels dragged forward, feeling a chill in their cores.

After all, only those from the Wolf Pack Civilization grasp the significance of the figures on display.

They had been shining symbols in the Wolf Pack Civilization, commanding forces numbering in the tens of millions, hundreds of millions, or even billions!

Maybe to the Wolf Lord, such entities rank as mere mid- and low-tier, but to these Exotic Beasts, they loom like insurmountable peaks.

Then, with a resounding Wolf Howl unlike any before, Su Lin took his place at the pinnacle of the Starry Sky Commanding Platform!

His pristine white coat gleamed beneath the stars, as three decades slipped by in an instant. The Dimensional Truth surrounding Su Lin intensified further, inspiring awe without a hint of fury.

Wherever he positioned himself, the starry expanse twisted under the Dimensional Truth's influence, etching his singular imprint across that stretch of cosmos!

In earlier reward gatherings, the Wolf Lord could skip showing up, yet this occasion demanded his direct presence.

This shift turned the previously agitated troops—stirred by the rebels and false-claim killers among the War Generals, War Kings, and so on—back into a disciplined hush.

No Exotic Beast dared to probe with their Spiritual Will carelessly.

Such is the Wolf Lord's formidable presence!

After the Wolf Lord emerged, three War Emperors stepped forth one after another, this round omitting the Roach Emperor!

These three War Emperors directed the Dream Guards, Breaking Formation Army, Guardian Divine Army, and the Serpent Emperor’s Followers to encircle the Wolf Lord, their gazes sweeping the assembly with icy detachment, plunging the vibrant award ceremony into abrupt quiet.

Through this display, every Exotic Beast grasped that today's event might extend beyond mere rewards.

As the trio of War Emperors took the stage, a massive Wolf Howl soon echoed through the Southern Territory Mountains, drawing all focus to heed it closely.

Via Su Lin’s Spiritual Will, he proclaimed a fresh regulation with crystal clarity.

Furthermore, he overhauled the military merit framework.

Going forward, across the Wolf Pack Civilization’s battlefields, all must don a Nuclear Source Recorder—the key device for logging merits and curbing unchecked actions by Exotic Beasts and units alike.

Every bit of data from the Nuclear Source Recorders gets handled by the Information Center under utmost secrecy.

Barring the Wolf Lord, Red-tailed, and Serpent Emperor, no other Exotic Beast can peek even a little.

This setup also eases worries about data leaks inside Exotic Beast army groups!

Be they human or beast, once intelligence blooms, a natural sense of propriety follows.

Thus, privacy safeguards were on Su Lin's mind right from the outset.

This order sparked thrill in some Exotic Beasts, anxiety in others, and apathy in a few.

Since equipping the Nuclear Source Recorder ensures merits get tracked more thoroughly and uniformly, free from any meddling.

The rare cases of faked reports, stolen merits, or black-market trades will vanish entirely!

However, it seals off chances for wild rampages, innocent killings to steal credit, and the like.

One could say moods and faces varied wildly among Exotic Beasts in every army group, with those in the Undead Cockroach Army Group hit hardest by dread and turmoil.

Su Lin took in this entire spectacle.

Next, the military merit structure underwent another revision.

Before, merits hinged only on enemy kills and their power levels; now, a broader evaluation takes hold.

Beyond kills and foe potency, merits can come from vending resources to the Wolf Pack Civilization’s National Treasury, submitting tactics, rooting out inner corruptions, inventing Star Energy Weapons, Battle Instruments, overseeing Vassal Town outputs, and similar contributions.

Henceforth, opportunities extend far past the front lines.

Commander-rank Exotic Beasts earn merits too, via strategic and tactical successes, subordinate slays of enemy chiefs, and beyond.

This signals that the Wolf Pack Civilization moves away from pure might-based rule, paving quick paths for tactical prodigies, admin wizards, inventive minds, and everyday champions to ascend.

The Wolf Pack Civilization hinted at this shift earlier, though without firm outlines.

At last, it's locked in!

What's more, the military merit setup evolves from rough tallies into a precise system, with no caps on promotions.

With sufficient merits, even a lowly unknown trooper could vault straight to War King status.
