In front of Yuan and Ying, Ling Shuang turned over the last few fallen corpses one by one, skillfully pulling out source crystals from the shattered skulls with her fingertips.

I have to say, the Bloodlust talent of the Ghoul is really useful.

It lasted for 3 minutes, but it didn't reach Ling Shuang's limit, and the side effects that Ulger mentioned didn't seem to exist at all.

At this moment, Ling Shuang squatted beside the corpse, holding a second-tier source crystal, and frowned.

Excluding Grutu, he harvested a total of seventeen source crystals in the melee.

Four second-tier specimens, but none of them reached the standard for maturity.

The rest are all at the first-order mature level.

Those from the Kisame clan are of slightly lower quality, but still barely acceptable.

But now that the new ability, Frost Flame, has been activated, the absorption progress bar is practically crawling.

Even after using a second-tier source crystal, the evolution of the right arm is not even 1/5 complete.

"The system's appetite is getting more and more demanding."

Ling Shuang silently recited a phrase in her mind and glanced in Nolan's direction.

Could that guy's Source Crystal possibly be of any use?

In the center of the mine, Nolan had just broken free of the self-sealing of the Frost Energy Ring and emerged from the ice shell that was half a meter thick.

Seeing Ling Shuang's curious gaze, his pupils contracted rapidly, and his whole body began to tremble involuntarily.

Even though Ling Shuang had already broken free of her berserk state, he still didn't dare to meet her gaze.

Nolan unconsciously took half a step back towards the abyss, his fingers gripping the short halberd trembling slightly.

Ling Shuang slowly got up and walked towards Urge.

Ulger stood there, leaning on his bone axe. The wound on his left arm, severed at the elbow, had crystallized and sealed itself due to the low temperature. He looked at Ling Shuang with a puzzled expression.

However, Ling Shuang walked up to him and pressed two second-tier source crystals into his only remaining right palm.

"Here you go, now move on to the next level."

Ling Shuang's voice was calm.

Ulger was stunned, his dark red eyes scanning back and forth between Ling Shuang and the source crystal in his palm several times.

"Brother Zhangmu, this..."

"Stop talking nonsense, from now on you have to follow me."

Ling Shuang didn't give him a chance to refuse and turned to walk in another direction.

To everyone's surprise, Ling Shuang actually stood in front of Heto.

At this moment, Heto was curled up behind a pile of rubble near the entrance to the mine, his round body wrapped in two pieces of animal hides that had been torn off the back of a pack animal.

When the melee broke out, he immediately rolled into this blind spot, afraid of being caught in the crossfire, and could only silently cheer for Ling Shuang.

When Ling Shuang walked up to him, Herto was still covering his eyes, like a fat lizard shoving its body into a crevice in the rocks.

"come out."

Ling Shuang kicked him helplessly and threw all the remaining first-tier mature body source crystals in front of him.

Herto stared at the pile of source crystals emitting dark red light, then looked up at Ling Shuang, completely dumbfounded.

"...For me?"

"Don't want to? Then I'll go feed Hei Zi."

Blackie is Herto's giant beetle camel-like beast.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes!" Herto practically lunged forward, squeezing the pile of source crystals tightly against his chest.

"I'm only a regular Tier 1, not even a mature form yet. Would it be a waste to give me this...?"

Herto's voice stopped abruptly because he noticed that Ling Shuang had turned around and walked back to the center of the mine.

Seeing the menacing looks from his fellow tribesmen, Heto immediately began to eat voraciously.

Luckily, I've developed a training habit of eating a lot of jerky, so I finished it all in just over ten seconds!

As Heto watched Ling Shuang's retreating figure, he suddenly felt his eyes sting.

Then, thinking that he would soon reach the second-tier commander level, and could even reach the third tier with Ying and the others, Heto's already small eyes narrowed into slits with delight.

But soon, the smile on his face froze.

Having ingested too many source crystals at once, the immense energy surged wildly within his body.

At this moment, Ling Shuang stood directly in front of Ying and Yuan, facing the two of them.

A faint smile played on Yuan's lips; the appearance of the tyrannical species had given him an unexpected sense of anticipation for this cooperation plan.

"I'm sorry, Chief Yuan. This was my first time unleashing my Bloodlust in the wasteland, and I couldn't stop myself."

There are only 5 spots left, is that alright?

However, Ling Shuang showed no sign of embarrassment.

He was certain that Yuan didn't care about his people at all.

As expected, Yuan didn't care at all that the Kisame clan only got two spots.

But a hint of apprehension flashed in Yuan's eyes when he saw Ling Shuang suddenly appear.

The bloodline of the fertile royal family, but if it could be effective, perhaps even Ying wouldn't be needed...

But soon, Yuan's face returned to its usual indifference and arrogance.

"Five it is."

Yuan turned and walked out, waving his hand.

"We will meet at Kisame's camp in five hours."

They all needed time to prepare fire crystals, which served as entrance tickets to the ruins and also to settle their respective clansmen.

Ying watched Yuan leave with a cold eye, then wrapped the bone whip back around her waist.

"This guy is definitely plotting something."

But upon seeing the clean and tidy Ling Shuang beside her, she changed to a languid demeanor, coquettishly snuggling closer to Ling Shuang and slightly raising her head against his chest.

"Brother Zhang Mu, you were so strong just now!"

"We're going to the ruins soon, it would be such a pity if you died."

You are of royal blood from a fertile land, it would be a waste if you didn't have any offspring, so please leave someone a child now~

She pulled Ling Shuang along, pretending to go into the mine tunnel.

Ling Shuang took a step back. Even though the woman in front of him had a beautiful human appearance, he could still sense the cold and violent soul hidden within her.

"Can't Commander Ying hope for something good for me at all?"

Seeing Ling Shuang's aloof demeanor, Ying instantly stopped smiling.

"You really are stubborn and won't listen to reason. If the people in the main city knew that there were male members of the Fertile Land royal family who had left, they would be in trouble."

You'd probably be tied up and forced to mate with those self-important ghoul nobles for seven days and seven nights straight, ungrateful wretch!

"Commander Ying, would you like to consider Heto? He's also a second-tier mature being, not bad."

"Don't make me hit you..."

"Then never mind. I'm not like Herto; I don't have that hobby."

Ling Shuang shrugged and turned around.

The ghoul race also evolves very quickly.

In just ten minutes, Urg and Heto had completed their advancement to the second-tier mature form.

Even Urge's severed arm was reattached.

At this moment, the two respectfully approached Ling Shuang, knelt on one knee, their eyes filled with sincerity, and called out in unison,

"Commander!"

Looking at the two mature second-tier beings in front of her, Ling Shuang felt inexplicably relieved.

As long as her human identity remains hidden, Ying won't cause any trouble.

His position in the ghoul tribe was now unshakeable.

People in the safe zone then have a sufficient buffer period.

Of course, this exploration of the ruins needs to go smoothly.

If this opportunity still cannot escape the fate of slavery,

Let alone human civilization.

Even the entire ghoul and the Oni-shaman clan will be slaughtered by that terrifying rancher.
