Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf
Chapter 2050 - 1138: Recuperate and Observe Coldly
They’ve already started secretly falsifying accounts, falsely reporting resource ledgers, and only paying a small portion of the resources.
The vast majority of resources are funneled into their own private storages.
Therefore, letting these vassal town nobles and meritorious descendants cause a stir might thoroughly make up for the deficits these vassal towns have accumulated over the years when we seize properties.
This isn’t because Su Lin is cold-blooded.
But many times, as the species under his command increase, certain measures must be used.
Without them, it’s insufficient to stabilize this vast empire.
In this ten million years, the strength of the Wolf Pack Civilization hasn’t increased slowly either.
Even Earth has advanced to a Level 5 Sin Star!
The Radiant Sun Star reached the late stage of Level 5!
Jupiter reached the peak of Level 4!
The Moon reached the late stage of Level 4!
However, even so, the resources, fortune, Dao rhythm, etc., produced by the Sky Wolf System still haven’t caught up with the now Level 5 peak Bright Day System!
The Bright Day System is truly an ancient and powerful stellar system.
It once lost nearly nine-tenths of its military strength in battle,
and after such a long time, it has shown signs of recovery.
As for whether the Bright Day System ruled by the Yao Ri Emperor would interfere with the Wolf Pack Civilization’s rule in the future?
Su Lin hasn’t considered this much!
Because he knows there are certain species, for whom faith, gratitude, and promises are more precious than anything!
"Wolf Lord! The direct descendants of the Arctic Tern, Night Hawk’s offspring, the daughter of the Purple Sable, and even the descendants of the Fox Wolf and the One-Eyed Wolf, many high-ranking nobles’ descendants are plundering resources in their respective vassal towns, oppressing ordinary species, and even many have started consuming false military expenses of the vassal towns, using them to raise family warriors and private soldiers!"
At this moment, in the Sky Wolf System, already renewed and filled with practical star energy weapons and as many as nineteen layers of arrays and killing arrays for protection,
the Sand Fox quietly arrived and was respectfully reporting to the Wolf Lord at the Destiny Stone Summit.
In an instant, ten million years passed, and even the Sand Fox’s appearance had changed somewhat.
The passage of ten million years made her lose the arrogance and sharpness she once had, instead bringing out a hint of world-weary maturity and stability.
During these ten million years, under her rule, the Wangshu Trading City grew larger, not only becoming the trading center of all living beings in the Wangshu Zone but even many species and powers on star cores came here to trade using the Space-Time Altar.
As the transaction volume increased, the Sand Fox, to shake the position of the Star Core Trading City, reduced the transaction fee to two percent upon inquiring with the Wolf Lord.
It only charges two percent, and within the Wangshu Zone, anything robbed or stolen will be recovered for free, and the robbers or thieves will be fined triple the penalty!
If unable to pay, they will be directly conscripted as a servant army!
As for species coming from the star core, as long as they trade top-level resources, they can charge a one percent transaction fee.
This makes Wangshu Trading City more and more prosperous, and its revenues have become extraordinarily large!
The income of a mere trading city is almost equivalent to the total income of several vassal town groups.
Backed by the trading city, the Sand Fox quietly reached the late stage of half-step taboo in these years.
In such peaceful times, only the Sand Fox, backed by the trading city, could advance this rapidly.
Even the Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly, Roach Emperor, Serpent Emperor, Lonely Wolf Emperor, etc., couldn’t ascend as fast during peaceful times without frontline battles and life-and-death honing.
Even the Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly got stuck at the late peak stage of half-step taboo, unable to fully perfect the Dimension Heart!
As for the Roach Emperor, Serpent Emperor, and Lonely Wolf Emperor, they don’t need much discussion.
It can be said that the Sand Fox’s combat power quietly reached the top ten of the Wolf Pack Civilization.
Even if you consider the trump cards and killing moves the Sand Fox accumulated from the trading city over the years, she could break into the top five.
"Hmm, note it down, don’t act against them yet. I still want to see how far these guys can escalate things. Currently, are there any new movements in the forces from the star core and other regions?"
Residing at the Sea of Destiny, Su Lin’s aura became increasingly terrifying.
More than ten million years, for all species, including Su Lin, is a tremendously long epoch.
This made him carry a certain maturity akin to the Sand Fox.
Even during this time, he witnessed the birth of many descendants including Wolf Sister, Shadow Wolf, Wolf Father, and Wolf Mother.
But among them, many could not break past the Heavenly Boundary checkpoint and aged to die.
Even Wolf Sister, Wolf Father, Wolf Mother, and Cousin, piled up with enormous resources to reach the Heavenly Boundary, were felt by Su Lin to be sucked into aging once they could no longer ascend.
They have started slipping from their peak era, a condition that no amount of resources can replenish.
It’s like a species reaching its peak, unable to break the limit, will eventually age.
But thankfully, with resource supplies, their lifespans still need not worry.
At most, it’s the stage like the Ancient Giant Turtle, showing maturity, aging, but not dying.
Yet Su Lin still sits at an absolute peak, and this peak seems endless.
During this time, Su Lin boldly ascended three more levels, reaching Level 182!
These three levels don’t seem like much, but only he can deeply feel what these three levels mean.
If at the conferral ceremony, he might have qualified to battle a taboo existence,
then now he reached the point where even normal taboo existences would tremble.
Recommencing the Heavenly Boundary path, atomic-level body, dimensional truth!
He walked these three paths to the zenith of the zenith, a journey almost no species could achieve.
But Su Lin did.
Even the Fifth Gene Barrier became more apparent in these ten million years, yet despite devouring all genetic fragments of the Wangshu Zone species, it couldn’t break through this Fifth Gene Barrier.
And this Fifth Gene Barrier, not only built his current four-path cultivation strength but also limited the other three paths from breaking the limit.
Just like when he initially reached the Heavenly Boundary, without crossing the gene barrier, Su Lin could not step onto the Heavenly Boundary path.
So he felt he couldn’t remain in silent meditation at the Wangshu Zone anymore.
There was no world-shocking level resource here to help him break through this immense Genetic Barrier like a Divine Mountain!
Upon hearing the Wolf Lord inquire about movements in the star core and other major regions, the Sand Fox dutifully bowed and reported.
No matter how rampant the descendants of other vassal towns or even the rulers were, the Sand Fox treated the Wolf Lord as she always had.
Because only she, in control of nearly all sources of secret intelligence, knew that perhaps all vassal town groups changed over these millions of years, but the Wolf Lord had changed just as much?
The former Wolf Lord could easily crush any rebel, and so can the current Wolf Lord!
.....
Su Lin’s gaze turned to two tall figures standing beside him. Xiao Hui, sensing their Wolf King’s imposing gaze, quickly stood at attention, while Little Lone Wolf stood with head bowed reverently, which pleased Su Lin a great deal.
Being the Lead Wolf, Little Lone Wolf, even with immense power, showed awe towards Su Lin.
And Xiao Hui, like before, had a playful nature; even with evolved intelligence, he was still like an eight-year-old child carefree, just wanting to follow Su Lin in campaigns across lands, spreading the Wolf Clan’s prestige throughout the Arctic.
Confronting the two White Wolves that stayed loyal and performed great deeds in the battle, Su Lin was generous and awarded them three hundred jin of meat, and the sudden reward made Xiao Hui cheer loudly, while Little Lone Wolf, despite remaining calm, his excited howl indicated their immense joy to Su Lin.
The rest of the Wolf Clan, as long as they participated in the battle, and the White Wolves with outstanding achievements, were rewarded regardless of Beta Wolf or Hài-Wolf, causing the cave’s atmosphere to become vibrant like a human New Year celebration, where each rewarded White Wolf, especially those with lively temperaments, couldn’t help but leap around.
