A city of level four territory appeared on the hill at night, taking over the entire hill.
At this moment, the two-headed demons had already climbed down from the tree, looking at their territory with a touch of nostalgia.
The Dark Beast Civilization participated in the [Lord Challenge]. Every Dark Beast has its own territory, and so do they.
It only performs random tasks and cannot bring territory into the area.
This also reduced their strength by half.
A lord must be united with his territory to unleash his full fighting power.
"This time, I'm afraid we can only rely on Ji. That human is good against the fast squad, but it won't be so easy for him to win this kind of territorial war."
Moreover, it is lonely.
As he said this, the kobold opened its mouth and began spitting out even smaller kobolds.
One, two, three, and more than a dozen little dog-headed people came out in one go.
These kobolds were really only the size of rats, and their abilities were different from those of the larger ones.
After it appeared, it looked up at the sky, made a "gurgling" sound, and spat out something even more peculiar.
It is a living, breathing life.
It might spit out one at one end, or three or four at one end.
These creatures were not only alive after they emerged, but half of them were in human form.
Some of them wore equipment that rivaled that of human challengers, giving them a powerful presence.
These individuals are often singled out and are considered "hero units".
There were also some humans who looked quite ragged, and when three or four of them spat out at once, they looked rather pathetic.
After they landed, they didn't seem to notice anything unusual about the dark beasts in front of them. They glanced around, and some went into the blacksmith's shop, some into the houses, and some into the farmhouses.
Less than two seconds later, the lights in the territory were turned on, and the hustle and bustle of the residents talking and working filled the air.
Smoke billowed from the kitchen, and farmers were already carrying hoes, turning over the soil and planting crops wherever they could be dug.
Hero units climbed the city walls, archers stood atop the watchtowers, and rocket soldiers were cleaning up artillery shells and howitzers.
A burly white man, nearly two meters tall, walked past the two-headed demons, their gazes falling on the mechanical device he carried on his back.
The metal implanted under his skin could be vaguely seen, giving it a strong technological feel. Combined with the strength of his physical body, it made the two-headed demons sense the aura of a powerful figure.
"It's Bobby."
"An epic hero unit."
"When the combat value reaches level four, it can even reach level five during the city defense period."
"He is Ji's most powerful subordinate."
As the two-headed demons spoke, they followed the epic hero toward the lord's hall not far away.
The lord's hall was lit up, and the doors were wide open, an invitation to enter at will.
However, the two-headed demons unconsciously shrank their size as they entered the hall.
Under the bright light, the yellow beast's eyes quickly adjusted and finally saw everything in the lord's hall.
There are only five dark beasts in total.
The two-headed hidden demon with seven stars at each end.
Their strength and aura are about the same as theirs.
A large dog-headed human, with a small, 10-centimeter-tall dog-headed human perched on its shoulder. Interestingly, they were all wearing identical black clothes, which the Daxia humans apparently called suits.

In the center, surrounded by stars, is a being that even the three-headed beast dares not look directly at.
It was like a shapeless cloud of black smoke, continuously maintaining a form that resembled burning flames.
Deep within the flames, one could sense the presence of vision, but what posed the greatest threat to the three-headed beast was the suppression emanating from its high-ranking bloodline.
"Lord Ji." The two-headed demon stepped forward and prostrated itself on the ground, addressing the flame respectfully in this way.
The flames before them made no sound, yet sound was directly acting on their minds.
"His name is Wei Huan. He is this year's new human recruit and the only necromancer in human civilization. He has also slaughtered our entire Lord Assessment Area and is the human named the Dark Beast Slayer by the Challenge World. He is our enemy."
Information appears directly in the mind in a form that is not sound, not image, not concept.
It was as if the genetic lock was unlocked in that instant, and the bloodline memories from ancient times were suddenly revived, gaining an incredibly detailed inheritance of knowledge.
They saw Wei Huan's appearance, heard his voice, and saw the deep imprint he left in different places, even the frequency of his breathing.
Surrounding him was an army of countless undead, from cave beasts to wolves and bears. In that instant, they seemed to have experienced it firsthand, their bodies clearly imprinting each other's data.
But this is not the end.
When all information about Wei Huan was injected into the minds of the three beasts, all the data about Wei Huan from the battle they had personally experienced was as if an unseen hand had unearthed it.
This caused them great pain, but they endured it without making a sound.
The new memories eventually merged perfectly with the old ones in their minds, reaching a point of equilibrium and finally settling down.
The memories of Wei Huan have expanded to include the skeletal fortress that transformed from a jellyfish-like cave beast, the contrast in the destructive power of the Demon Eye Lord before and after receiving the shaman's blessing, and Wei Huan's level four vehicle.
Only then did Lord Ji seem satisfied and release the trembling three-headed dark beast.
Then, its "gaze" swept over the other four dark beasts beside it. These dark beasts received the latest "ancient memories" and seemed to have been baptized with wisdom once again.
"He is indeed our nemesis, if it means he can control the corpses of our people, so he must die."
"We must concentrate our efforts on killing him. He's growing too fast and could become a variable in this battle."
"I suspect he obtained the professional training ground, and the stats of the undead dark beast are abnormal."
As the beasts talked, Wei Huan, whom they had never seen before, became no longer a secret in their eyes.
The Dark Beast Civilization can be considered an enemy of human civilization because they are indeed qualified.
The intelligence and leadership skills of high-level dark beasts are no less than those of any high-ranking human.
They even have their own intelligence gathering capabilities and methods for sending intelligence.
"Lord Ji, perhaps we should leave this place and..."
Wei Huan's message spread throughout the Dark Beast Dimension.
"No." But this time, Lord Ji said, "He will die here, so there's no need to bother sending him any more messages."
"But..."
"He's growing too fast; next time, he might already be at the top. This is our last chance."
"yes."
The black flames burned silently for a moment, then suddenly spread out like wildfire, engulfing every part of the territory in an instant.
They saw that the people who were touched by the flames were more energetic and produced more.
The hero's strength surged, and the tall, muscular white epic hero's aura broke through to the fifth rank, making his physique even more terrifying.
The level four watchtower is slowly upgrading, and it seems to be evolving towards level five.
Furthermore, every dark beast lord here senses its ancient bloodline being awakened; they are evolving and moving towards greater strength.
"Lord Ji" has completely disappeared from this land, and his figure can no longer be seen.
But it is everywhere; everywhere is its eye, its voice.
Upon entering the rapidly evolving land, it uttered murmurs, as if they were the whispers of a deity.
"Evolve...kill him...evolve...kill him..."
...
Last night was very peaceful.
After the Dark Beast Squad's ambush, encountering another horde of wandering monsters was a very routine battle for the convoy.
Losses are permissible, but we must push forward relentlessly.
Slay ghosts when you encounter them, slay gods when you encounter them.
Wherever the army group passes, the land is plowed, harrowed, and tilled, leaving not a blade of grass growing!
Several battles took place during the night, with hordes of wandering monsters sent by the Challenge World landing directly in the middle of the convoy.
However, the well-prepared convoy, with its network of points, launched an attack and wiped out all the wandering monsters before the battle escalated.
There was absolutely no need to use Wei Huan's main leader's car to take action.
Also, Lu Jie's side is pretty good.
She led half the group to victory at the start, and after two hours, she lost another third of them, like a gecko shedding its tail.
As night falls, those who remain with her are the strongest survivors, the ones who have been weeded out.
The weak band together for mutual support.
When strong people come together, they form a powerful alliance.
The wandering monster that descended last night also didn't cause much of a fuss and was dealt with by the challengers themselves.
The difficult part is dealing with the group of people who were abandoned by Sister Lu.
The group was led by six vehicles belonging to the leader at an angle.
As they moved forward, they moved closer to Wei Huan's convoy.
Wei Huan was walking at 400 miles per hour, neither too fast nor too slow, but steadily moving forward.
Those ten thousand or so abandoned people always encountered one accident or another.
A hemp rope always breaks at its thinnest point, and misfortune always finds those with a hard life.
Along the way, various things kept slowing them down, and people kept dying in the convoy.
Some people cursed Sister Lu, but Sister Lu didn't care.
Someone asked Wei Huan for help, but Wei Huan did not respond.
Wei Huan was grateful to Commander Dong, respected his concern for the world, and admired his benevolence and love for the people.
But Wei Huan also had his own "way".
As long as he could achieve final victory in the war, he didn't really care about losing a few people; he wanted to protect more people so they could live.
Furthermore, if he leaves, the convoy he is supposed to protect will be attacked because it has lost his protection.
Is this a gain or a loss?
So, four hours after nightfall, this straggling convoy finally managed to rejoin Group B.
The losses have already reached one-tenth.
Nearly a thousand people died.
The number of vehicles decreased by 528.
But before they could catch their breath, Wei Huan's orders came down.
Collect and organize information on newly joined team members, and then reassign them to other teams.
Everyone hurriedly ate a bite of food, and before they could rest, they were asked to head to various locations overnight to meet up with the team members.
Some distances were so far that it required traveling from one side of the convoy to the other.
Exhausted and mentally stressed, some of the people broke down and began to curse.
I don't dare to curse Sister Lu and Wei Huan in the chat room, for fear that I will be abandoned and truly left to die.
So all he could do was curse at his teammates and friends, and even set up a local area network with the vehicles around him to curse in a small, closed-door setting.
[How could Wei Huan, a mere greenhorn, wield such power? It's probably related to his wife, Mu Zhong.]
[Mu Dehao, commander of the Northeast Challenge Army, drove most of the cars in this convoy, which belonged to the Northeast Army. Without Mu Dehao, what was Wei Huan?]
[Did they really think Wei Huan killed the Dark Beast squad? The main force consisted of 30 or 40 vehicles; a single volley from them would have overwhelmed even a fourth-tier Dark Beast. Yet they're attributing the credit to Wei Huan alone, creating hype for him.]
[With Commander Hong seriously injured and Mu Dehao out of power, he pins his hopes on his son's marriage partner—a pathetic and laughable act, arrogant and foolish.]
In the secret local area network, at first they were just complaining about being tired, but later, at some point, they started making very targeted comments, pointing directly at Wei Huan's identity as the main leader and questioning his identity.
The already disoriented crowd offered no resistance and were brainwashed.
Leave a sound on the local area network.
[I never believed Wei Huan had any real ability. Just ask me about the outstanding generals of Great Xia; they all started training from a young age and are very knowledgeable.]
[I'm afraid even his undead army is overestimated. I've met Mu Dehao; he has the face of a refined scoundrel. What real skills could he possibly have? All he does is scheme.]
[Wei Huan's actions in separating us are probably not well-intentioned. Is it possible he'll use us as cannon fodder next?]
[Yes, yes, we need to be careful and watch out for any signs of trouble. I don't believe he's being so kind.]
There weren't many people on the local area network, just over 30 cars and a little over 100 people.
But if you look closely, you'll find that this group is actually the strongest among these abandoned caravans.
Someone noticed their strength and united them together, deliberately creating a small group.
This small group now seems insignificant, utterly insignificant in the face of an army of 30,000.
But as undercurrents converge, things come together from nothing—that's how it is.
What's more, there are still people who are diligently cultivating this, watching with amusement as this tiny "poisonous seed" takes root and sprouts.
In the darkness, an inconspicuous minivan...
The interior, however, is exceptionally grand.
One man crossed his legs, picked up his teacup, took a sip of the refreshing Snowflake Bamboo Leaf Green tea, and sneered, "You dare to step on me to get to the top? Then let's see who's more powerful."
...
Five o'clock in the morning is the time to get up.
When the fragrant food was ready, Wei Huan had not yet returned from the Temple of Professions.
Last night was the first night, and all of them were on duty in the vehicle, working until after noon before taking turns to rest.
Mu Zhong took over Wei Huan's post and let him rest.
Wei Huan did not feel that he needed to rest.
Mu Zhong said, "Go to the Temple of Professions. The undead army continues to expand, and the intensity of the war will only increase. There will be many places where the undead army is needed."
Wei Huan was persuaded.
I went into the great tomb and recruited wolves for one night.
During this time, the anus-cleansing guy came over and brought him another elite dog.
Wei Huan didn't think much of it at first, but when two elites stood behind the anus-scooping guy, followed by nearly a thousand wolves, amidst this imposing scene, Wei Huan noticed the change in the anus-scooping guy.
It's hard to say whether it's an improvement from the inside out after a change in self-awareness.
That's how the undead system works; once you reach a certain standard, you can advance.
In short, at that moment, Wei Huan clearly felt that the "Anal-Cleaning Brothers" were transforming from an "elite unit" into a "heroic unit".
When talking about "hero units", we must mention the division of the [hero system] in the Dark Beast Lord Challenge.
"Common Hero" → "Epic Hero" → "Legendary Hero" → "False God Hero" → "God Hero".
Ordinary heroes can take on ten opponents, while epic heroes can take on a hundred.
By the same token, a legendary hero could slaughter thousands of humans on the battlefield.
Conversely, let's say...
Wei Huan was once able to wipe out a Dark Beast Lord district and achieve the feat of killing a thousand people, which means that his personal ability has reached the level of "legendary hero".
So, how strong is Wei Huan's personal ability? Is he a "supermodel who has collapsed"?
The answer is no.
The Dark Beast Lord can control various powerful hero units, and if he has a high-star bloodline, he is no less than a legendary hero.
It can only be said that geniuses of this caliber are limited. Both sides, from a population base of billions, ultimately produce no more than a handful of truly top-tier powerhouses.
The topic has gone astray.
Speaking only of the current "Anal-Cleaning Guy," he seems to meet certain conditions and, in Wei Huan's eyes, presents the characteristics of a "heroic unit."
If we're talking about evolving from elites to heroes, does that mean that in the future, the "Anal-Scraping Guy" might evolve into an "Epic Hero," a "Legendary Hero," or even a "God-like Hero"?
Is it because the Dark Beast Lords are controlled by the challenge world and cannot escape the "Lord Challenge System" even in death?
Or is this kind of growth and change destined for the [Gravekeeper Sequence]?
unknown.
Wei Huan only knew that this was a good thing.
As the "Anal-Cracking Brother" becomes stronger, his control over the Wolves also increases, allowing him to provide more assistance to Wei Huan on the battlefield.
However, as a commander, how can you not know tactics?
Wei Huan had high hopes for the "Anal Cleansing Brother" and was full of expectations.
Place
After opening his eyes, he said to Mu Tangge, "Mu Han, I'm entrusting you with a student. You need to teach him to analyze the enemy situation, organize intelligence, and execute tactics, focusing on the Blue Team's tactics, with flexible movement as the main approach."
Brother Mu nodded: "Okay, is this the end of the assessment??"[()]'Come and see the latest chapters and complete chapters'()
"No, you should finish your current work and do this task now."
Brother Mu pondered for a moment: "You want me to mentor Xu Qingqiang?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Huan paused slightly, then said after a moment's thought, "You can also ask him if he wants to come along."
Clearly, he wasn't going to teach Xu Qingqiang. Mu Tangge couldn't think of anyone else. After breakfast, he finished all the preparations for the army's departure.
After it was his turn to rest, he went to a separate room on the fourth floor, which had been temporarily converted into a classroom, as requested by Wei Huan.
Push the door open and go inside.
Inside the room, a ferocious creature, its entire body made of white bones covered in spikes, with all four limbs on the ground and a shoulder height of three meters, stood there blankly.
Above its head, a dark cloud gathered and condensed into a ghost crow in the shape of a black raven.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the room, there was also the enormous skeleton of a cave beast, standing four meters tall.
As he looked over, a tiny facehugger crawled out of the cave beast's shell, peeking out curiously.
One person, one bird, one beast, and two insects.
The ten eyes, eight green and two black, met.
Mu Zhong had somehow followed them up; his voice came from behind Mu's cousin.
"Knowing you want to teach Gang Ge, I had Wei Huan release Dian Ma, Gouzi, and Ya Jie together. When you're teaching military class, you can also give a brief introduction to the various monsters that challenge the world. Ya Jie is an excellent scout bird; she is our eyes."
Mu's cousin: "..."
After a long pause, he said, "My preparations may not have been very thorough."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Are you sure they can understand me?"
Actually, teaching elite undead is not difficult.
They are indeed unable to communicate with humans, and can never even understand human voices.
However, as intelligent life forms, their ability to process images is no less than that of sound.
Brother Mu found war videos, challenged world documentaries, and some classic military academy training programs, which he simply showed like movies.
The elite undead will take a serious look; they may understand it, or they may not.
As for why Sister Crow is called Sister Crow and not Brother Crow, it's simply because Mu Zhong believed that Wei Huan's undead army should have both male and female members so that they wouldn't get tired from working.
Perhaps, Gang-ge is Gang-jie, and Ya-jie is Ya-ge...
That doesn't matter.
The first day of the march went smoothly.
Today, with no more attacks from the Dark Beast Squad, even large tribes of wandering monsters on the road cannot withstand three rounds of concentrated fire from the army group.
Wherever it passed, scorched earth stretched out, its momentum as imposing as a rainbow.
The threat of a life-or-death crisis had temporarily subsided, and some voices, both large and small, began to emerge that day.
First, there's the issue of treasure chests.
The highway assessment is not only an assessment, but also a rare opportunity to improve one's abilities.
The treasure chests along the way are easy to open, and most of them are bronze or iron level chests, which can improve the challenger's abilities.
At first, everyone was focused on surviving and remained silent.
Now that it's safe, I want more.
[Can we go open the treasure chest?]
This author, Jingzhou Xiaoyao, reminds you that the latest chapters of "Highway Survival: God-Tier Treasure Chest Start" are updated first on [website name]. Remember to come to [website name] to see the latest and complete chapters.
Can we team up to explore the ruins?
This was the question I asked most that day.
But the answer is obvious.
cannot.
The treasure chests are official spoils of war, and also the cost of protecting this group.
More importantly, the logistical support for so many people needs to be provided by the government, and a large amount of resources can only be obtained from treasure chests and ruins.
If you use points to redeem them, the official team also needs to have the goods in hand.
The reasons are valid, but unfortunately, some people simply cannot accept them.
She kept grumbling and complaining for a long time.
Wei Huan ignored them all.
Having witnessed the difficulty of the Level 3 assessment, Wei Huan did not believe that he could get through the rest of the assessment so easily.
The Dark Beasts will not give up easily, and they will continue to create trouble for the world based on their actual situation.
Challenging the world will stimulate their evolution.
The dark beasts, on the other hand, would take their lives.
The two sides joining forces is like a vast net of despair, already laid out in front of them.
Allowing a team to disregard discipline and get whatever they want is unwise for a leader.
Wei Huan knew that these people wouldn't understand, nor did they need to understand.
He only needs them to obey orders and move forward.
When that day came, they naturally understood that sometimes a small oversight could lead to complete failure.
Conversely, that is strategic planning.
Despite repeated appeals, Wei Huan never responded.
The convoy appeared quiet on the surface, but beneath the surface, discontent was building.
As night fell, small groups began exchanging ideas, and there were more people than yesterday.
[Wei Huan is indeed young, arrogant, and incapable of handling important matters.]
[I clearly heard the people in the reconnaissance vehicle say that Wei Huan's undead raven was at the very front. When we got there, he had opened all the treasure chests by himself—enough supplies for 40,000 people! He dared to take it all by himself.]
[He wouldn't let us explore the ruins; he was too greedy!]
People will only be envious of how much he has taken, and will not think that he deserves it because he was protected by others.
They just wanted to take what Wei Huan had taken and keep it for themselves.
When already foolish and selfish people get together, they only become more profit-driven and utterly brainless!
