Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1877 - 1048: Star Sky Feudal Town, Ten Routes of Warlords (Part 2)

Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
Following the bloody triumph in the Sea of Star Sand, Su Lin conferred rewards across the Wolf Pack Civilization's key forces. The Godspeed Golden Eagle integrated the Celestial Demon Body, ascending to the mid-stage peak of the Nine Heavens and reclaiming Title-level War King status, while its guards expanded tenfold. In the Direct Lineage Second Division, Fox-tail Algae rose as main commander with Vulture King and Black Rat as deputies, bolstered by Star Sand Master Heavenly Boundary Marks; the Star War Army Group, pivotal in the final assault, empowered Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly with the Star Sky Main Battle Banner and advanced weaponry to elevate the Falling Star Bow. The Guardian Divine Army, under Lonely Wolf Emperor, integrated the Sin Extinction Array Map to forge an Extreme Heaven Realm artifact, advancing en masse before returning to Earth Headquarters. Newly allied Seven-headed Ghost-faced Bat Clan secured Radiant Sun Star territories, as the Reserve Army Group claimed merits by slaying two Peak Heavenly Venerates.

Shadow Wolf has taken in a Nine Heavens Mark and is now pushing for a breakthrough!

Thanks to the Wolf Lord's overwhelming momentum in this conflict, the Reserve Army Group has earned notable military merits!

Shadow Wolf has crossed yet another limit, ascending to the rank of Special-level War King.

Leading under him, a powerhouse reserve unit at the trillion scale has formed, ready to join upcoming battles on the front lines!

The Reserve Army Group shifted its defenses to the Radiant Sun Star, seizing control of four satellites along with half the primary planet!

Once all rewards for the Reserve Army Group were handed out, the three War Emperors and the Red-tailed Wolf Queen, positioned atop the tallest spot on the Starry Sky Commanding Platform, lingered silently for quite a while before resuming the distribution to the remaining military units.

This delay sparked unease among numerous Exotic Beasts, who sensed that the real identity of the Star Sky Feudal Town Marquis—beyond the Roach Emperor—might soon come to light!

[Blazing Angel Army Group]

The Golden Jade Demon Deer advanced to Special-level War King, marking substantial military gains by overcoming multiple hurdles,

and ultimately setting up an ambush to eliminate the Master of Illusion Ghost, together with the Eating Spirit Crow King and Bloodthirsty Grass, dividing up the Illusion Ghost Master’s blood and flesh essence, securing the Ten Heavens Mark.

Now on the verge of stepping into the Ten Heavens!

With training for the Blazing Angel Army Group wrapped up, and having fully embraced the Wolf Pack Civilization, Su Lin chose to send the Golden Jade Demon Deer to govern the region surrounding the Sky Wolf System, spanning up to two light-years.

Serving as yet another Star Sky Feudal Town Marquis.

Aside from the Roach Emperor and the Undying Cockroach Army Group, the remaining Star Sky Feudal Town Marquises hold no specific rankings!

[Flame Angel Army Group]

The Eating Spirit Crow King and Bloodthirsty Grass, at the helm of their leftover forces, mirrored the Golden Jade Demon Deer's feats by smashing through various barriers during the Sea of Star Sand clash, demonstrating their worth through deeds.

Both the Eating Spirit Crow King and Bloodthirsty Grass rose to High-ranking War King status, progressing to Nine Heavens as well, and took charge of the zone around the Sky Wolf System from two to five light-years out!

Becoming additional Star Sky Feudal Town Marquises!

[Insect Race Army Group]

During the Sea of Star Sand confrontation, this army group showed only average results overall,

save for the standout performance of the Corpse Insect Clan, which surged ahead rapidly, boosting both its numbers and fighting strength instead of waning, while the other Insect Race elements couldn't make much impact.

The Corpse Worm King itself drew on the endless corpses scattered across the battlefield to attain Nine Heavens level combat prowess!

This success prompted Su Lin to elevate the Corpse Worm King to War King, assigning it the role of First Deputy Commander; in the Bloodthirsty Maniac Bee's absence, it could oversee the entire Insect Race Army Group.

The Insect Race Army Group got sent to an area five to ten light-years away.

The territory they control is vast indeed!

Moreover, inside ten light-years, few major powers exist—just scattered lone stars!

Thus, these three Star Sky Feudal Town Marquises effectively act as extensions of the Wolf Lord’s reach, establishing three key buffer defenses around the Sky Wolf System’s borders!

[Undead Army Group]

Having risen to prominence ahead of the other forces, the Undead Army Group boasts enormous numbers, fueled by devouring countless Dead Souls from the battlefield, swelling to tens of trillions in Ancestor-level fighters!

Therefore, staying concealed is impossible!

Soul Spirit Demon Spider hit the pinnacle of Nine Heavens, receiving from Su Lin a Heavenly Boundary Mark from the Seven-headed Ghost-faced Bat Clan’s Peak Heavenly Venerate, and was named a Special-level War King!

Soul Demon and Ancestral Dragon Turtle each obtained a ninth-rank Heavenly Boundary Mark, also appointed as War Kings!

Su Lin directed them toward the Western Starry Sky, where numerous factions remain unsubdued.

Previously, raids targeted his Proxima Star System, Bader Star System, and similar areas; these systems escaped the Sea of Star Sand's ravages, so technically, they fall outside the Wolf Pack Civilization’s domain.

Yet right now, across almost forty light-years, no power rivals the Wolf Pack Civilization!

Hence, groups in that region face just two paths: annihilation or surrender!

The Undead Army Group, which thrives in battle and possesses odd traits like damage absorption, fits perfectly for deployment in the Western Starry Sky.

[Wandering Army Group]

The Black Gold Demon Ape finds itself blocked once more at the Ten Heavens barrier, stalled in progression, and this time, the Wolf Lord withheld the Ten Heavens Mark.

For the Ten Heavens Mark proves even scarcer than the Nine Heavens variety, with supplies nearly depleted!

Even more crucially, the Wandering Army Group’s input in this fight was minimal, leaving Su Lin rather displeased.

He dispatched both the Black Gold Demon Ape and the Wandering Army Group to the Western Starry Sky, tasking them with aiding the Undead Army Group in smashing defiant powers!

Meanwhile, the Wandering Army Group garnered no prizes and was swiftly set aside!

[Phantom Army Group]

Charm Fox and Shadow of Plague endured devastating losses, yet Illusion God pulled them through!

In truth, Su Lin had foreseen clashes between Charm Fox and external stellar powers when he sent it to probe the starry sky!

Just hadn't foreseen such a disastrous outcome!

Though the Sea of Star Sand wiped away their grudges, Su Lin still believed he owed them a debt.

Thus, Su Lin granted the Heavenly Horse Stellar System, plus the region from ten light-years eastward to the Sea of Star Sand, all to Charm Fox and the Phantom Army Group!

Allowing them to dominate that part of the cosmos once again, including sections Charm Fox had originally conquered!

Su Lin gifted Charm Fox the eighth and tenth Heavenly Boundary Marks from the Star Sand Master, while Shadow of Plague received the ninth!

These gifts highlight Su Lin’s efforts to make amends!

Su Lin further provided fifty billion elites from the Star War Army Group and a thousand billion promising troops from the Reserve Army Group to rebuild the Phantom Army Group’s base!

However, Charm Fox, reeling from severe blows, remained unfit to lead, so its second-in-command, American Murderous Scorpion, assumed control!

[Hundred Races Army Group]

This represents yet another fresh army group formed by Su Lin, drawing from native powers in the Sea of Star Sand.

For now, Su Lin selected the Peak Heavenly Venerate Battle Servant he acquired earlier to lead it!

Su Lin discovered this Peak Heavenly Venerate Battle Servant possesses an extraordinarily robust physique, though its Origin and Soul Spirit were wrecked and wiped out, rendering it flawed.

Through thousands of years, bolstered by exotic plants such as Ice Mountain Lotus and Heavenly Leisure Lotus, it has partially mended.

Its fighting strength now stands at Late Stage of Nine Heavens.

Thanks to the Soul Connection Talent it holds, Su Lin detected its deep loyalty and allegiance to the Wolf Pack Civilization and to him personally.

Thus, he assigned it the alias ’Silent’!

’Silent’ guides the Hundred Races Army Group into the starry expanse between the Roach Emperor and the Insect Race Army Group!

Should major upheavals arise later, the Roach Emperor and Undying Cockroach Army Group would need to push past several key Feudal Town marquises before accessing the Sky Wolf System.

Should the Black Sun Constant Star strike the Undying Cockroach Army Group, the Hundred Races Army Group stands ready for rapid reinforcement!

As the Hundred Battle Army Group received its assignment too,

the Wolf Pack Civilization split into eight primary Star Sky Feudal Towns,

while inside the Sky Wolf System itself, besides the Direct Lineage One, Two Army Group, Star War Army Group, Guardian Divine Army, Seven-headed Ghost-faced Bat Clan, Sun Fire Army Group, Reserve Army Group, and others, totaling seven army groups.

Thus, prior to completing all rewards for the Wolf Pack Civilization, it had already doled out honors to fifteen army groups in total!

Furthermore, the fearsome Nightmare Army and Mercenary Army Group, which have shown up repeatedly in the past, await division, as does the northern starry sky section adjacent to the Red Sun Empire!

As a result, despite the Wolf Pack Civilization suffering casualties and expending huge resources in the Sea of Star Sand war, its true gains shine through at this juncture!

Simply afford them a stretch of calm and steady growth!

With over a dozen army groups branching out, the Wolf Pack Civilization’s expansion will inevitably eclipse all previous eras, hitting an all-time high of dominance!

.....

Afterward, Su Lin let out a mighty howl aimed northward, calling the Wolf Clan from the icy wastes to head back together to the Land of Adventure, watching their catches closely to prevent Hunters from snatching them en route.

The Wolf Clan, catching the order, echoed back with a thunderous chorus, then burst into motion, racing homeward with all speed, eager to flaunt their swiftness and might before the Wolf King.
