My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

The Emperor Dead Bone has once again mastered a new skill. Even after seeing numerous familiar situations, this left Mu Yuan…bewildered.

“The ‘Withered Bone Land’ skill is hard to describe. It’s not just about its power, it carries a unique meaning.”

Field-type Skills!

These kinds of skills are very distinctive, they can effortlessly alter the surrounding landscape, and hence they can also be called environment-based skills.

Beyond that, Field-type Skills are the prerequisite for the strong ones to control ‘Domains’.

And the domain is one of the necessary conditions for a fourth-order leader level strongman to step into the legendary realm.

If a large number of intermediate conditions are removed and then rounded off, does that mean that Emperor Dead Bone is half a step into the legendary realm?

No wonder he has the demeanor of an emperor!

“Cough cough, leaving aside the very distant legendary realm for a moment, the Emperor Dead Bone’s combat power will have a significant boost now that he has mastered ‘Withered Bone Land’. Using ‘Sorrow of Skeleton’ in the Withered Bone Land is even more ingenious, as it allows the Emperor Dead Bone, who originally could only control his own bones, to directly expand the control range of ‘Sorrow of Skeleton’ to the entire field.”

Of course, this is just the basic application, and field-type skills require a lot of energy, so Emperor Dead Bone might devolve back to being a two-second bone.

But it doesn’t matter, the Emperor Dead Bone is a mature skeleton, he’ll figure out how to improve his skills on his own.

The next day, Mu Yuan was enjoying a flight shooting game – playing with his Battle Falcon.

He’s using his spirit link talents to manipulate the Hurricane War Hawk, flying towards a densely-populated spider forest.

The trees here are unusually tall, with initial estimates of several dozen meters. The dense canopy completely obscures the sky, making it difficult to see any sunlight. As a result, the entire forest appears particularly dark, and even the leaves of the giant trees glow with a black-purple sheen.

“The Poisonous Spider Forest, or the Dark Forest.”

With the tall trees and dense canopies, giant spiders the size of cars navigate between branches, weaving a large spider web and waiting for prey to run into it.

For this reason, Mu Yuan had not dared to let the Battle Falcon enter this forest before, fearing that an inadvertent moment might lead to the bird falling prey.

But today is different. The level seven Hurricane War Hawk has its vision shared at all times, Mu Yuan is controlling it throughout the process by means of the spiritual link. It’s not just commanding, there is not a moment of delay in control. He tells the Hurricane War Hawk to move 0.6 meters to the left, and the hawk will not hesitate to move to the specific position.

It is indeed thanks to the precision of his Lord Shepherd command that the Hurricane War Hawk managed to escape one death trap after another. Otherwise, this hawk would have long become a feast for some monster.

Indeed, the lord himself must come out…

“Damn it!”

A considerably huge Spotted Poison Spider fell from the sky, casting a large shadow. Mu Yuan instantly controlled the Hurricane War Hawk to perform a mid-air flip and a half, barely avoiding the huge spider.

He then controlled the Hurricane War Hawk to look back.

“This is a three-star monster ‘Spotted Poison Spider’. But the size it has…probably, it is an occupational level monster again!”

As he delved deeper into the Dark Forest, Mu Yuan’s face grew more solemn.

When he began, he planned to scout out the location of each spider nest and then exterminate them with his troops. Now it seems that it’s feasible to exterminate the spider nests in the periphery, but if he dared to go deep into the forest and fight these unpredictable spiders on their home ground, the losses would undoubtedly be significant.

“However, this location is already dozens of kilometers away from my territory, and the Lord’s Trial won’t attract monsters from such great distances.”

Probably.

It was like this in previous years, but not necessarily this year.

Indeed, his territory is far from being impenetrable at the moment.

“The spiritual link is still stable, far from its limit. Let’s continue exploring.”

But the Dark Forest seems very ‘barren’; there are no treasures, ancient buildings, temples, or the likes of the Root of Corruption.

He did spot some ordinary RedBlood Fruit and Calming Grass materials from afar, but their value was minimal, and there was no way he would send his elites deep into the Dark Forest for such mundane materials.

Mu Yuan was somewhat disappointed and was just about to command the Hurricane War Hawk to turn back when he suddenly noticed…

The area ahead has become much more open. The ground below the withered yellow leaves appears to be paved with stone, and further away lie ruins where you can vaguely see the grandeur of ancient buildings.

Here is another ancient architecture site!

Moreover, in the depths of the ruins, a faint light glowed from a certain spot, vaguely revealing a luminous curtain inscribed with one mysterious rune after another.

“Is this… a Guardian Enchantment?”

“An enchantment that still has energy and is still operating in these ruins?”

This peaked his interest immensely!

But there were already a lot of monsters entrenched around these ancient architectural ruins.

There were swarms of poisonous spiders, guarding a giant patterned spider the size of a sedan; muscular werewolves, and lizard-men wielding bows and arrows…

Threads of red mist drifted among them, and these creatures, who usually didn’t get along, now had red eyes and coexisted harmoniously, roaming around these ancient architectural ruins.

“How can I, a lord with supreme morals, turn a blind eye to these precious relics of ancient civilization being desecrated by these monsters? Crush them! They must be crushed decisively!” He thought.

Just as he was thinking, he spotted a rare two-star monster, a ‘bipedal flying dragon,’ flapping its wings and emerging from the depths of the ruins, spewing a large swath of orange flame from its mouth.

The moment the flames touched the earth, they ignited into a roaring blaze, illuminating the feathers of the Battle Falcon in a glowing red.

Oh, damn!

This flying dragon is unbeatable, let’s retreat strategically first and plan later.

The Battle Falcon stirred up a light blue hurricane, and was gone in a blink of an eye.

At this moment, Battle Falcon No. 1 was still en route back, but a warning rang out in the territory as a group of about twenty or thirty snake men, wielding curved knives or bows and arrows, charged towards the territory with crimson eyes.

“Archers, strong shooters, fire.”

“Skeleton Soldiers, Skeleton Warriors, engage in battle.”

Mu Yuan controlled the Battle Falcon with a thought and directed the battlefield with a thought. Such a double-line operation was not difficult for him now. He even directed several strong shooters to shoot precise charging arrows at the advanced snake men in the enemy group.

Soon, this group of invaders was annihilated.

Several of the Skeleton Warriors, who had stayed behind in the territory and possessed some wisdom, immediately stepped forward, picking up the soul sand that had been gathered and stripping all equipment from the snake men, reflecting a spirit of meticulousness and zero waste.

Even if the equipment of these snake men smelled a bit fishy and didn’t suit their troops, it didn’t matter. His territory already owned a blacksmith shop capable of remaking these second-hand equipments at any time.

“As soon as the red fog sign appeared, the frequency of monster attacks increased a lot. Although they are not threatening, what if their numbers increase by tens or hundreds of times…”

Mu Yuan found this thought troublesome, “So we must continue to accelerate, to grow at full speed.”

The ancient architectural ruins that the Battle Falcon discovered must be investigated as soon as possible.

However, the ruins were located deep in the Dark Forest, not only far from the territory, but also along a path with dozens of small and large spider nests.

If he sent General Dead Bone and a few dozen armies to advance all the way, it would take at least a day or two.

That was too long.

He wasn’t interested in eliminating monster groups slowly right now, he wanted to grow rapidly.

“If it’s not easy for the main force to go deep, then let’s fight individually. As long as we get the Battle Falcon to carry Duo Lai, it won’t take long to reach the ruins,” he thought.

Plan accepted!

A moment later, Duo Lai, who had just left with his team a short while ago, received the order and returned to the territory with a baffled look.

Mu Yuan hung a palm-sized storage pouch on the Battle Falcon No. 2, which was in full status, tied it tightly, and then had Duo Lai shape into a bracelet, firmly hanging on the Battle Falcon’s claw.

He nodded contentedly, “Very good, just like that.”

“Launching the first air drop operation for Duo Lai, codename Slime Strike, has officially begun.”

“Depart-!”
