Origin Paradise!

The warriors stopped laughing and started applauding. Survival of the fittest—this skinny warrior's choice was absolutely correct.

"Wow wow wow!"

The gaunt warrior pounded his chest, releasing his anger. He strode to a spot not far from the medicine cauldron, where hundreds of cages held vampires, humans, werewolves, spider demons, and a few demonic beings. The only thing they had in common was that they were all women.

The gaunt warrior examined the situation for a moment, then picked out a werewolf with a wolf's head and a human body from the cage. He immediately pinned the werewolf to the ground, flung off his own animal-patterned skirt, and declared that the little savage was useless and he could only create offspring again.

In an instant, the passion for procreation was ignited, and the warriors flocked to the cages to choose freely.

For the Empire and the Dark Races, savages are a valuable source of labor and servants, but the ecological roles of hunter and prey can sometimes shift. Not long ago, the Dark Creatures' raid on the City of Fate failed, and they retreated in disarray, losing a large number of titled individuals.

For a time, struggle and cries filled the entire tribe.

In the very center of the cell, a vampire count, who looked like a young girl, was pale and trembling.

As the dignified Origin Lord, she descended into the Thorn Clan by relying on her own bloodline and quickly became a genius whose talent was second only to Duke Merrick. Her speed of advancing to the Gold rank was not to be outdone. This time, she thought that the sneak attack was a gilding operation, but the deputy warden died mysteriously. She was left unattended and ended up in this state.

"They escaped the plague and they escaped defeat."

"Am I destined to be tortured to death here?"

"Don't do this kind of thing!"

A warrior arrived at the prison, and the young countess immediately knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Don't touch me, I get diarrhea when I'm nervous!"

The two sides couldn't communicate verbally, but fortunately, at the crucial moment, the chieftain grabbed the warrior's wrist and cursed him in a string of gibberish. Because the golden warriors of humans and dark creatures could wield source power and use various skills, capturing gold was extremely difficult.

Such high-level and precious breeding partners are usually offered to the chieftain's tribe. If they are used indiscriminately, they can easily lose their ability to reproduce.

The warrior stood aside dejectedly.

The young countess collapsed to the ground, her face full of relief.

Click!

The cell door opened, and the old chieftain walked in, turning to the warrior and saying, "Once is acceptable."

"I can do it, but you can't."

The young countess was dumbfounded. This shameless old chieftain seemed to be even worse than the warrior from before.

Wow!

Just as the tribe was in chaos, countless black threads swept in from afar, like a cold, heavy, and endless surging tide.

The territory line almost completely covers the entire tribe.

Moments later, a strong wind howled in.

The warriors, entangled by the domain lines, stopped moving. A deadly crisis arose, and before they could react, distant yet piercing gunshots seemed to echo in their ears.

Bang bang bang!

Each direct hit from a gun exploded within these warriors' bodies. The mechanism of instantaneous echo, combined with the stats of the Gun Abyss Demon, auxiliary shooting skills, alchemical bullets, and other elements, ultimately turned gunfire into a death knell.

boom!

Beside the central cell, the warrior, seething with resentment, had no time to react. It was as if gunpowder had exploded within him; his abdomen instantly ripped open, blood, bits of flesh, and fragments of internal organs spraying out like a crushed tomato. The impact sent him flying backward, crashing heavily into a pot of traditional Chinese medicine. Boiling water gushed forth, flowing over his already mangled body.

boom!

Not far away, the warrior who had just blasted his offspring clutched his chest. The next moment, his hand was hit by the blast wave from his heart, becoming a bloody mess. His entire chest cavity collapsed, his ribs broke into several pieces, protruding from his body, and his heart was completely shattered. Blood splattered on the ground, leaving a shocking stain. He slowly fell down, his eyes filled with terror and resentment at death.

After three rounds of shooting, more than a dozen brave soldiers perished.

A gray warhorse leaped out of the forest and galloped forward.

Inside the central cage, the old chieftain's expression changed drastically. In an instant, he killed all the warriors of the tribe. This power was definitely not something that belonged to the golden elites who were equal to him.

Boom!

On horseback, Yu Jianyue rested a heavy sniper rifle on someone's shoulder, her innate super accuracy boosted, and small enemy bullets burst forth.

A streak of light struck the old chieftain straight in the chest, and the gray warhorse charged past. Jiang He then swung his silver spear.

—Dragon Spear Technique: Shatter Dragon Spine.

The evil of this world, amplified by the spear, swept across with the weight of a mountain, shattering the old chieftain's mangled body into blood and gore.

The cage collapsed, and the young countess stared blankly as the young man and woman vanished in a flash.

"My two benefactors!"

On horseback, Yu Jianyue revealed a bright smile, her slender hand sweeping across her neck, the threat unmistakable. She didn't care about a dark vampire at all, and she was unwilling to bother with him at this juncture, but if he didn't know what was good for him, she would kill him without hesitation, after all, she was on the side of the Empire.

The young countess shrank back, got up, turned around, and ran into the forest.

The gray warhorse leaped up on its forelegs, and Jiang He's Radiant Demon Eye scanned the surroundings. The Vision Gem embedded in the Demon Eye could see the thickness of a target's fortune and was good at searching for valuable things.

In the field of vision, from the relatively luxurious stone house, a column of dark blue smoke shot into the sky.

Jiang He dismounted and advanced, smashing the house made of source stone with a single punch. Several thorns rolled back a wooden box.

Inside the wooden box, the animal hides inscribed with the language of the wild men looked old and worn, as if they had been there for many years.

Yu Jianyue stretched lazily on the horse, revealing her stunning curves. She propped herself up on her arm to support her cheek and sighed, "The cultivation traditions of the savages were studied by specialists in the empire before, but each savage tribe has a different script. If you are interested, I suggest waiting until the war is over to avoid wasting your energy."

Jiang He spread out the animal skin paper. The wild man's script was indeed a considerable problem. The time and effort required to decipher and verify it were theoretically enormous.

However, he doesn't need to go to such lengths, as the player has a language translation module provided by Origin when they arrive.

"Steel Body Tempering Technique".

Yu Jianyue almost had a question mark pop out of her head.

"Really? You have a talent for languages?"

"maybe."

Jiang He snapped his fingers, and the domain gate opened. Ah Da, Ah Er, and Ah San led a large number of fierce guards out and immediately surrounded and imprisoned the savage tribe.

Tens of thousands of strong and able-bodied laborers could be kept for their own use or sold to make money, both of which are excellent options.

Ah Er stepped forward and asked for instructions, saying, "Boss, I suggest we castrate all the male savages. Otherwise, these guys will always cause trouble, and the management costs in this regard are unnecessary."

"It's up to you."

Jiang He waved his hand, and the energy was transformed into Radiant Elements, flowing out like a surging river. With the help of solidification technology, the Radiant Elements turned into ropes and whips. The guards, understanding the meaning of the song, immediately stepped forward to line up and receive them.

"clear."

Ah Er turned around with a sinister grin. Although he was obsequious in front of his boss, to the Evil Guards, this Evil General was often a synonym for ferocity and ruthlessness.

Suddenly, howls and wailing filled the savage tribe.

Jiang He examined the body-refining technique. Unlike the "internal consumption" of the imperial cultivators, the savages used the method of "external application" of the source gold. By taking advantage of their unique advantages as natives of the Eternal Darkness and utilizing the petrification properties of the source gold, they continuously tempered and strengthened their bodies.

Wildlings are naturally adept at self-control and can easily adjust their petrification level. With just time and resources, a wildling with perfect control can acquire a perfectly robust physique.

"Origin gold, source gold, source gold..."

"Is cultivation really that expensive?"

Jiang He was unusually troubled by a headache, as he hadn't seemed to spend much money on cultivation in the past.

"It seems that most of these savages will have to be sold."

"The grade of a single body-refining technique is too low."

"We still need to keep catching them."

A quarter of an hour later, more than 50,000 savages were bound by the shimmering ropes and imprisoned in the portable imperial city. The stacked storage method made extremely efficient use of space, and the imperial city was actually quite large.

Once the battlefield was cleared, the gray warhorse charged back into the forest, advancing along the trembling boundary line.

Chapter 461 Player Level LV37

The eastern part of the border region is Siming City.

The garden exclusively for the Si family is under construction.

The opera troupe was filled with the sounds of gongs and drums, but the music lacked elegance; the focus was on a lively and festive atmosphere.

The matriarch sat in the main seat of the stands, accompanied by a group of noble ladies. Several subordinate lower-ranking families had sent representatives. Si Ning sat not far away, bored.

In the stands, no more than five meters from the old lady, Xueying rubbed the black gemstone ring on her finger, while the logistics major general from the Cangwu Army greeted her with great enthusiasm.

"After testing, the Black Judgment Bomb has indeed reached a perfect level of quality, with a powerful range of 300 meters, causing 80% additional damage to flesh and blood creatures and mental and physical beings."

The logistics major general examined the report and exclaimed, "When used in multiples, each bomb can inflict an additional 80 points of true damage. When the number is accumulated, the energy is enough to annihilate gold."

Blood Shadow nodded slightly. True damage involves the issue of position, and it is difficult to achieve a true damage effect for higher-level targets. However, the explosion is genuine, and the amount can solve many problems.

After a moment, the logistics major general said, "We have investigated the situation. Only one company produces the Black Trial. Some important figures have inquired about this matter before. However, with the Si family as guarantors, the military can place an order with Major Jiang."

In fact, this logistics major general is one of the important figures. The war has already begun, but due to the existence of the Si family, the military has not shown any intention to seize the secret formula for the production of the Black Trial, saving someone the trouble of verifying the "exclusive" formula.

"Based on the results of our previous discussions with Ms. Ning."

"The first order totaled fifty million units."

"For every 50,000 pills delivered, the military will provide a copy of the Undying-level cultivation technique, which can be exchanged for in accordance with the military merit system, witnessed by the Golden Armor Warrior."

"The military logistics department will provide all the raw materials needed for production, provided that it matches the terms of the agreement..."

A large number of order details have entered the confirmation stage between both parties.

Not far away, Si Ning waited with her legs crossed, showing no concern about the outcome.

The Chaos Bomb - Black Judgment is unmatched in terms of cost-effectiveness and power at the same level. It is expected to become the standard military supply for officers and below in the Cangwu Army, Jinxi Army, and Zhuri Army, and its status is close to that of the current mainstream source force gun in the western border of the empire.

On the other hand, exchanging for the Undying Technique greatly alleviates the logistical pressure during the current war, because the technique's level is not high enough to arouse the suspicion of superior families.

Si Ning had no intention of sharing the spoils of the cultivation techniques. It wasn't for any other reason than that they were too time-consuming and energy-draining. Even a super genius could only master a few advanced techniques at most. Continuing to study them was not only a matter of ability, but more importantly, the cost-effectiveness was extremely low.

To be honest, she still doesn't understand how this person plans to learn so many advanced techniques. However, if the other party really succeeds, then she can consider how to trade them. A tailor-made sword technique will have an effect that exceeds the normal situation.

The cooperation is progressing quite smoothly.

It is foreseeable that if orders continue to expand, they will inevitably attract the covetousness of other forces. However, that will be a matter for after the war ends. At this critical juncture, the outcome of the war is the biggest contradiction.

An hour later, the first truckload of materials arrived.

Inside the artificial hill in the garden, the man in black listened to the continuous loud noises around him, his brows furrowed with annoyance.

Since he arrived, the target has never left the old lady of the Si family by more than five meters.

Assassinations cannot be carried out in the light, especially given that the Duke had given him numerous instructions. The man in black felt a sense of unease, wondering if the next step—delivering poison—would be enough to kill his target.

"I refuse to believe I'll fail on you!"

A quarter of an hour later, Blood Shadow drank the wine brought by the maid and was unharmed.

Half an hour later, the banquet began, and the man in black watched as his target ate the poisoned pastry, remaining completely calm.

Tried again and again, failed again and again.

"Damn it, how come you're unharmed by the Undying-level Cold Poison?!"

……

In the blink of an eye, several days have passed.

Empire Millennium, March 20.

The Cangwu Army and the Dark Moon Werewolves clashed in their first localized war outside the Undying Forest. Both sides suffered heavy losses. As other Imperial armies and the Dark Fortress did not take any strategic action, the two sides entered into a tug-of-war at the regimental level, vying for control of the various entrances to the Undying Forest.

Meanwhile, a terrifying legend began to circulate among the savage tribes in the forest.

The black threads that have been spreading recently will engulf the entire tribe once they strike, regardless of age or gender, and will all disappear without a trace. To date, seventeen chieftain tribes have been turned into wastelands, and several chieftains have been forced to unite and send out a team of warriors to investigate.

A campfire burns inside a cave.

The intense hunt left Yu Jianyue feeling drowsy. She leaned against the stone wall, closed her eyes, and smelled strongly of alcohol.

Across from him, Jiang He sat cross-legged, his divine thoughts running. He continuously analyzed and comprehended the seventeen body-refining techniques in his hands. He had already captured over a million savages, all of whom were imprisoned in his portable imperial city. He had also casually killed some golden savage warriors, completing his exclusive side quest.
