But her voice was steadier and more resolute than ever, infused with spiritual power, spreading to every corner of the battlefield, "I hereby appoint Xiao Jin as the First Commander. Everyone in the Dawn Alliance, follow his orders and protect him at all costs!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"As you command!"

"Everyone cover Commander Xiao Jin!"

"Charge forward!"

The Beastmen obeyed the order and rushed to the front line, even using their bodies as shields to pave the way for Xiao Jin.

Facing the fierce attack of the Beastmen army, the faces of the Aliens grew increasingly grim.

This Beast World, which in their eyes was just a Low-level Continent, should have been easily annihilated, yet it had cost them dearly with no progress!

Now they even wanted to destroy the Star Gate? How delusional!

The battle grew fiercer, the sky stained crimson with blood.

The entire Beast World Continent was undergoing a massive catastrophe, and the casualties around the Star Gate were undoubtedly the most severe!

[The leader of the Stone Rhinoceros Tribe has fallen.]

[General Jin Yu has fallen.]

[The Fierce Lion Tribe has collapsed.]

[The Rosenia army is in retreat.]

[All 36,251 Beastmen of the Prel Country’s army have perished.]

[The Valencia army has been completely annihilated...]

[...]

A series of system reports echoed continuously in their minds.

The living lives turned into cold numbers and notification sounds.

Shen Tang shut her eyes tightly, her heart aching so much she could barely breathe.

She opened her eyes, looked towards the horrific battlefield, eyes full of blood, surrounded by countless green light spots.

These glows, like countless fireflies, drifted between flames and ruins, merging into the bodies of fallen warriors.

Beastmen, gravely wounded and unable to continue fighting, felt this warm power, and their broken bodies revived with fighting spirit, severed limbs regrowing.

Without hesitation, they picked up their weapons and rushed back into battle.

Even Beastmen who had died in the ruins opened their eyes again, shocked to see their intact bodies, now braver in the face of life and death.

Again and again, death, again and again, resurrection.

The unending vitality seemed never to fade.

"Damn it, what the hell is going on?"

The Alien army was dumbfounded, these Beastmen just wouldn’t die?!

Soon, they discovered Shen Tang was the cause.

"Kill that female!"

The leading Outsider commanders abandoned their current enemies and charged toward her.

Xue Yinzhou, Lu Xiao, Shen Li, Jia Lan intercepted them, joining forces to protect Shen Tang, letting no one get close.

The Beast Husbands gave everything to shield Shen Tang.

But the Alien commanders were also of Primordial Beast Tier.

Shen Li and the others gathered more and more injuries, their clothes in tatters, bodies covered in wounds.

Tears flowed more fiercely from Shen Tang’s eyes. She gritted her teeth, nearly recklessly releasing her superpower.

It’s not enough, far from enough.

She could be stronger...

She must be stronger!

Give it everything!

Under the terrifying consumption of her superpower, Shen Tang’s complexion grew paler, her entire body seemed drained, even her breath became unstable.

A gentle and encompassing embrace caught her as she wavered, accompanied by a cool, ocean-like aura.

Shen Tang looked up into the blue eyes of the young man, tears flowing uncontrollably, "I-I can’t save so many people... I’m about to... collapse..."

What to do?

She could comfort everyone, but the one most terrified and helpless was actually herself.

She could barely see the hope of victory.

But Shen Tang couldn’t show it; she had to make the warriors believe they would win.

Yet, who could give her a word of comfort, making her believe in this victory too?

Jia Lan gently caressed her pale cheek, as if seeing through to the deepest helplessness and vulnerability within her.

He pressed his forehead against hers, saying tenderly and softly, "Tangtang, don’t be afraid, we will win."

"My power... all to you..."

A blue glow emanated from the youth’s body, his puppet-crafted form finally collapsing.

And the light carrying all his power enveloped the woman gently like gentle seawater.

In the wind, mixed with that gentle and pleasant voice, passing affectionately by her ear,

"From now on, I’m not afraid of not feeling you anymore, I will be with you."

This power fused into Shen Tang’s body, becoming one with her.

From now on.

Living and dying, coexisting, never to part again.

The wind sound faded, satisfied and content.

On the smoke-filled battlefield, the woman knelt on the ground, holding the lifeless form of the puppet youth. The powerful energy infused in her made her near-dry body full again, her strength seemingly advancing further, her aura becoming unfathomable.
