Lord: My troops can evolve indefinitely.

With the leadership bonus provided by the badge, Luo Xuan's troop size increased significantly, and his monster-killing efficiency also improved.

Therefore, Luo Xuan collected the remaining troop cards in less than two days.

Luo Xuan immediately used his talent to start Azathoth's evolution.

As the sixteen materials were consumed, the light of evolution once again emanated from Azathoth.

Soon, Azathoth, having completed its evolution, appeared before Luo Xuan in a completely new form.

Azathoth's height reached about two meters, and his physique became more robust and powerful. The main color of his body had completely changed to a deep dark blue, giving him an imposing presence.

After examining Azathoth's new form, Luo Xuan quickly opened its attribute panel.

[Unit Type]: Water Element Warrior

[Race]: Elemental

[Level]: Tier 1, Level 7

[Quality]: Orange Legend

[Type]: Infantry

[Life]: 1000

[Physical Attack]: 35-50

[Physical Defense]: 20

[Magic Attack]: 25

[Magic Defense]: 15

[Speed]: Medium

[Skills]: Elemental Body (Passive), Continuous Stream (Passive), Water Bomb (Active), Wave Impact (Active), Deterrence (Passive)

[Demand Statistics Value]: 10

After removing the word "Secondary" from its previous evolution, Azathoth has added the word "Warrior" to its current evolution.

The quality has also been improved once again, directly entering the legendary level.

Seeing Azathoth's rapidly increasing attribute values, Luo Xuan nodded in satisfaction. It was worth all the time he had spent developing his strength in a lowly manner; he was finally about to cultivate a big boss.

It's worth mentioning that the speed issue that had previously limited Azathoth has been improved in this evolution.

However, the biggest improvement is in Azathoth's skills.

The original passive effects [Elemental Body] and [Eternal Flow] remain unchanged, but have been enhanced.

The same applies to the Water Bullet spell; not only is it more powerful, but Azathoth can also unleash more attacks in a short period of time.

The two newly added skills further enhance Azathoth's power.

【Wave Impact】: Azathoth transforms into an elemental torrent and rushes towards the target direction, dealing (200 + Magic Attack * 2) magic damage to all enemies along the way.

In wave form, Azathoth is completely immune to physical damage and reduces magic damage by 50%.

Upon seeing this skill, Luo Xuan felt a surge of joy. It truly lived up to its reputation as a legendary-level unit!

Wave Impact combines area damage, displacement, and damage reduction, making it a very perfect offensive skill.

The only drawback is that it consumes a lot of resources, and Azathoth cannot currently use it continuously for a short period of time.

As for the other passive skill, [Deterrence], Luo Xuan had seen someone explain it on the forum before. This skill is the dividing line between ordinary and top-tier troops.

Deterrence can suppress ordinary units and is an area-of-effect aura effect.

【Deterrence (Legendary)】: Causes a deterrent effect on units below Legendary level, reducing all attributes by 5%.

Above the legendary level, there are even more powerful epic and legendary units, whose deterrent effect is even stronger.

Looking at the brand-new Azathoth before him, Luo Xuan felt as if the clouds had parted and the sun had shone through.

"Azathoth uses wave impact!"

Luo Xuan waved his hand, commanding Azathoth to launch an attack on the spider swarm in front of him.

As an elemental torrent swept through, all the forest spiders in the path were killed, and the monster-clearing efficiency was significantly improved compared to before.

The remaining few forest spiders that hadn't been affected tried to rush over and attack Azathoth, but it easily dispatched them with a few casual blows.

"Well done!"

"Gurgle!"

Luo Xuan praised loudly, and Azathoth responded happily.

Having witnessed Azathoth's recent display of power, Luo Xuan couldn't help but look deeper into the forest.

He hadn't forgotten the resource points he'd seen inside. His territory was still completely barren, no different from when it first appeared.

Thinking of this, Luo Xuan felt a surge of warmth in his heart and decided to bring Azathoth inside.

However, after taking only a few steps, Luo Xuan calmed down again.

Leaving aside the few clearly formidable spider monsters guarding the resource point, the dense forest spiders all around Luo Xuan as soon as he entered the forest were enough to give him a hard time.

With that in mind, Luo Xuan decided to continue with his previous strategy, letting Azathoth continue to clear the spiders around the forest.

Upon receiving Luo Xuan's instructions, Azathoth immediately began to kill monsters.

Azathoth alternates between basic attacks and Water Bullet spells, wielding his weapons with both hands with impressive skill.

Watching Azathoth wreak havoc among the monsters, Luo Xuan felt somewhat fortunate that he had managed to trade for the [Commander's Badge] in time; otherwise, even the Grey Wolf would have been stuck.

Although he still had 4 points of leadership left over, Luo Xuan still felt it wasn't enough.

Given Azathoth's current monster-clearing efficiency, a few Wave Impacts can complete a whole day's worth of work before evolution.

Correspondingly, the drop rate of unit cards will definitely increase.

Luo Xuan had tried using cash to buy items that increased leadership, but most people exchanged them for in-game items.

Occasionally, a few individuals would be willing to exchange their earnings for real money, but the price they offered was far beyond Luo Xuan's means, even though he was already financially secure.

The truly wealthy, on the other hand, don't care about prices at all. As long as someone is selling, they will buy it. Sometimes they even compete with each other and raise prices, causing the market to rise higher and higher.

Having no other choice, Luo Xuan had to find a solution himself.

You either need to obtain items that increase your leadership stat in the game yourself, or you can only trade with other people using other items, just like before.

The only thing that gave Luo Xuan some comfort was that external items like the [Commander's Badge] were not worth nearly as much as rare and precious fruits like the Cold Moon Fruit, giving him a chance to snag a bargain.

Just as Luo Xuan was thrilled by Azathoth's further evolution, the Liangyi Division had basically finished its registration process.

"Phew~ Finally almost done, I'm exhausted!"

"Captain, I'd like to request leave next week!"

Inside the field office, several staff members were complaining to Zhao Wenjie.

"Alright, alright, enough nonsense. Have you finished your work?" Zhao Wenjie adopted the imposing manner of a team leader. "Watch out, the section chief might come back and deal with you."

The moment the section chief was mentioned, the entire department fell silent.

Everyone still feels lingering fear when they think of that rigid and stern section chief.

"Alright, I'm not going to argue with you anymore. Organize all the materials from the past few days and put them on my desk. Also, send me an electronic copy. Once that's done, you can go home."

Zhao Wenjie waved his hand and said irritably.

"Wuhu~ Thank you, Captain!"

"Thank you, Captain!"

In no time, the small department was filled with a cacophony of flattery.
