My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

Atop Wolf Head Mountain, the crackling sound of thunder and the unceasing roar of artillery gradually came to a halt.

Beneath the mountain was akin to hell.

The Treemen soldiers, commanded by Tree Demon Granny, were all listless; their branches drooped and many leaves fluttered down from their bodies. The once dense canopies had thinned, swaying feebly in the wind.

Around the Treemen, the once robust trees that had contributed a great deal of life power were now withered, having realized their worth.

In this battle, although the Treemen did not shine brilliantly, their overall contribution was significant. The forest line they formed was the most solid defense in front of Wolf Head Mountain.

They blocked the majority of the monstrous horde, and when the effects of the "Undead Legion" skill faded, they took on the main responsibility for resisting the Monster Tide.

From the beginning to the end of the war, they fought fiercely.

Unlike Uta, who was exceptionally outstanding at his peak moment but then lay injured inside Wolf Head Mountain Fortress, becoming a casualty.

"It's fortunate that, in one fell swoop, we eliminated six legends who were controlling the monster waves. Otherwise, this battle would have been much tougher,"

If the enemy had continued to whittle them down through monster waves and war machines, drawing out a war of attrition, it would have been very painful for them in Tianyuan Territory.

Over time, the state of commanders like Uta, Lu Liu, and Xi Liu would inevitably slip, and then they might not be able to dodge an ambush from the Werewolf Legend.

The death of the Werewolf Legend not only caused many Wisdom Monsters to flee but also lessened the violence of the Monster Tide.

If the Werewolf Legend hadn't used spatial treasures for defense, Mu Yuan and Duo Lai wouldn't have been able to cooperate and annihilate all the enemies in one go.

In Mu Yuan's plans, Duo Lai's Spatial Devouring and the Thunder Flame Dragon were to attack from both sides, but they couldn't eliminate all the legendary monsters—after all, the battlefield was not far from Wolf Head Mountain, and he dared not unleash the full power of the Thunder Flame Dragon.

He split the Nine-headed Roaring Thunder Flame Dragon into smaller dragons that bombarded the enemy one by one, and ultimately, he did not deploy the entire power of this super technique.

Even so, several peaks of Wolf Head Mountain collapsed, and the impact reached Treeman Forest, which shrank by half.

Of course, Mu Yuan still had other trump cards in hand. Early on, when Duo Lai and several Werewolf Legends were at a stalemate, he began controlling "Thunder Magnetic Coil Towers" to connect with smaller thunder coils around him, accumulating the power of thunder.

It just wasn't used.

Not having to use it is normal. It's fine not to deploy his trump cards, but not to be without them.

If he had to throw out all his trump cards just to eliminate the major threat, it would mean that the entire battle was far from secure.

...

Since Mu Yuan did not continue to cast "Thousand Prism Large Reflection" in the latter half of the war, some flying monsters broke through the barrage and infiltrated Wolf Head Mountain Fortress, causing some damage to the outer Arrow Towers, Watchtowers, and walls.

Shattered carcasses lay strewn about, their blood coagulated while wafts of blood and decay emanated from them. Yet, the most intense scent of blood belonged to the soldiers of Tianyuan Territory.

Lu Liu looked as if he had been fished out from a river of blood, his body covered in the stench of slaughter and his armor caked with chunks of flesh and innards. Other elites who had fought back and forth at the frontline also bore similar appearances. There were also some injured, severely injured soldiers.

Lainey, along with a dozen Holy Light Master Sacrifices and Holy Light Priests, were busily rushing about to save those critically wounded.

Some Necromancers held aloft their Dead Bone Staves, casting black smoke-like energy to reattach bones to Skeletons that were half-dead but not yet expired. After all, there were many injured, and to "reverse heal" them all before reviving would require too much energy.

The Elites stationed in the Watchtowers for long-range shooting, such as those armed with the Arrow of Polar Star, were unharmed and not tarnished with blood or minced flesh but could not hide their exhaustion either.

"This battle was indeed too perilous,"

sighed Dead Bone, who hadn't been stained with a single drop of blood and whose condition remained high.

It, too, had accumulated a not insignificant list of achievements.

Earlier, the Flesh Nest constructed by Fang of the Jackal Wolf at the front lines was Dead Bone's deed. But with the chaos of the grand battle, Dead Bone captured the Flesh Nest without the Werewolf Legend noticing.

The battle had ended, yet perhaps not entirely.

So concluded Dead Bone.

It summoned a reserve Undead Legion from Wraith Sacred Mountain, dispersing them for vigilance all around.

"Victory in a great battle is when everyone's guard is at its lowest, and if I were the commander of Fang of the Jackal Wolf, I certainly wouldn't miss such an opportunity,"

Dead Bone spoke with some reason.

Even Lord Shepherd felt a lack of safety.

While Dead Bone patrolled and kept watch, the others were not idle either. The post-war cleanup was a vast undertaking.

Then,

Lord Shepherd transformed into a transportation base, ferrying troops back and forth with the Lord's Seal. He transported a large number of intelligent Skeletons, Spearmen, and Slimes to Wolf Head Mountain, where they, under the guidance of the remaining elite forces, quickly cleaned up the battlefield.

"First, are we to gather the spoils of war?"

asked a crown-bearing Slime (Excellence one-star) with innocent, large eyes, unsure.

Duo Lai crossed his arms and shook his head.

"No, no, the first thing we do is to collect those high-order monster carcasses," instructed Duo Lai. "You, who have inherited my transportation techniques… it must be done quickly, before the monster carcasses cool."
