Su Chen had no idea what the Mutant Beasts outside were thinking at the moment. He was currently observing the evolution template interface in front of him.
There were originally only two pieces of information on the interface: one was Giant Squid, and the other was Su Yi.
But not long ago, a new name appeared on his evolution template.
Yes, it was the Hound Dahua, who used to be a trusted aide under the Crocodile King.
Dahua had been sent out long ago to infiltrate the Mutant Beasts, and had become the right-hand man of the Crocodile King. This time, Su Chen had sent the tsunami over to instigate a fight between the Octopus King and the Crocodile King.
Of course, he had informed Dahua in advance and told it to leave the area, but as the Crocodile King's trusted aide, it couldn't stay too far away from him.
As a result, a large amount of seawater poured down, directly flooding the area below.
Dahua had reached the pinnacle of the Seventh Order in strength, so it was unharmed by the seawater. However, its head became bald due to the strong pressure brought by the seawater.
Dahua let out a miserable cry. As the leader of all the Hounds in the base, it was proud of the hair on its head. But now, it was gone!
At that moment, Dahua's body underwent a strange transformation, and its aura also increased. However, Dahua was suppressing it, not allowing its breath to burst out.
It felt that its strength was increasing, and it was about to reach the Eighth Order.
Due to the falling seawater, this area was in chaos, and the Mutant Beasts did not notice this scene. Otherwise, Dahua's strength would have been exposed.
A beam of light flashed, and Dahua's transformation ended. Apart from its slightly larger size, there was no other change.
But on Su Chen's evolution template, the information was displayed :
Number of evolutions: 1
Evolution direction: Land, Sky, Sea, ???
Dahua's potential was actually 0.5 points higher than Su Yi's, and its potential achievements in the future would surpass Su Yi's!
Not only that, but Dahua's evolution direction included land, sky, and sea, which meant that its evolution direction was very comprehensive, and it could evolve in any way it wanted, very capricious.
"Does this Devour-type mean that Dahua can devour anything?" Su Chen asked System.
"In theory, yes. However, if Dahua devours something beyond its limit, it will be overstretched and fall into a deep sleep until all the devoured objects are digested," System explained.
"What if I let Dahua devour the body of an Eighth Order Mid-Term or even peak Mutant Beast?"
"Mid-term is possible, but it's not possible for anything above mid-term."
Su Chen suddenly knew how Dahua would grow in the future. As long as he gave it some Mutant Beast corpses to eat, it would be enough. Su Chen calculated the cost and found that it was not a loss.
Each time he upgraded Dahua, it consumed far more energy than expected. Especially when it reached the Eighth Order, each level up consumed a terrifying amount of energy. It was better to let it eat and level up by itself.
In short, Dahua lost its hair, but gained strength.
The battle between the Crocodile King and the Octopus King resulted in both sides suffering heavy losses, with the Crocodile tribe taking the brunt of it.
Some Eighth Order Mutant Beasts who heard the news were itching to move. After all, those were two Eighth Order Mid-Term Mutant Beasts. If they ate them, it was very likely that they could become Eighth Order Mid-Term Mutant Beasts themselves. Even some Eighth Order Mid-Term Mutant Beasts were very envious.
However, not long after, a piece of news spread.
A Seventh Order pinnacle mutated dog under the Crocodile King's command had ambushed and severely injured the Crocodile King, and had eaten his body. It became an Eighth Order Early-Term Mutant Beast and called itself the Hound King.
Some eighth-order Mutant Beasts insincerely congratulated Dahua, feeling frustrated that they had lost out to a seventh-order Mutant Beast. They then turned their attention to the Octopus King, but unfortunately, the ocean was too vast, and the Octopus King remained hidden and undiscovered.
Dahua had successfully risen to become the ruler of the Mutant Beasts, and many previously bullied mutant dogs flocked to him, forming a new royal clan, the Canine Clan. No mutant dog had ever achieved this before, and Dahua had set a precedent.
Su Chen was pleased with Dahua's performance, as he had infiltrated the Mutant Beasts' ranks and become one of their high-ranking members. Dahua was now qualified to receive certain classified information, but he needed to meet with the eighth-order Mutant Beasts one by one and establish a spiritual connection with them for better communication.
During this period, except for the Four-Armed Emperor, disguised as Spy No. 1, who kept ordering his Mutants to attack the Mutant Beasts, there was no activity from the Mutants elsewhere, and everything was quiet.
Bored, Su Chen checked the Mutants' gathering points and found that they seemed to have done nothing, which was strange.
"Mutants definitely have some kind of conspiracy!" Su Chen said confidently.
However, without any evidence, it was as if nothing had happened.
"What are the Mutant rulers up to?" Su Chen asked Spy No. 1.
"Commander, there has been no contact from any Mutant rulers recently."
Su Chen frowned, which was even more peculiar. Were the rulers excluding the Four-Armed Emperor and planning something without him?
Until the Mutants made a move, he didn't know what they were up to.
"Forget it. I don't want to think about it," Su Chen shook his head. He had too many things to worry about, and Mutants weren't his top priority.
The base was developing every day, and so far, he had fifteen bases, which were expanding rapidly. This led to his energy reserves fluctuating, but they were mostly maintained at around one million.
Now, he had over a hundred thousand Soldiers and thousands of Tanks under his command, along with countless other weapons. With the current strength of his bases, he could even take on a royal clan head-on.
Moreover, each Base City's Soldiers were absorbing Energy Crystals, which were boosting their strength.
The most potent Soldier had already reached the early seventh-order stage!
Everything was developing in the right direction, and Su Chen firmly believed that, given time, he could easily dominate the Earth.
Suddenly, an alarm sounded, "Invaders detected at the Shipyard of the third Sub-base in significant numbers. Full-scale attack recommended."
A screen appeared before Su Chen, showing the scene on the river. This wasn't an empty scene anymore; since Su Chen's constant building efforts, there were now numerous warships, destroyers, cruisers, and even aircraft carriers.
There were plenty of destroyers and cruisers, but there was only one aircraft carrier. These were too expensive to build, and Su Chen had only managed to build one so far.
"Launch an attack and crush them!"
