Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

South of Demon Suppression City.

Above a boundless forest.

Riding on the Hidden Dragon, Lin You swiftly passed by, easily concealing his aura and evading Zhou Fang’s perception.

He didn’t plan to confront Zhou Fang head-on.

Even though he had a Royal Species, with his Level 2 Quasi-God enhancement, his overall attributes were still slightly weaker than the opponent’s Extraordinary Species.

The highest basic attributes for a Tier Twelve Soldier count as 5 million.

An Extraordinary Species under the enhancement of a Level 9 Quasi-God unlocks its potential by 90%, which is a 45% attribute boost, reaching 7.25 million.

His Royal level’s current basic attributes are 6 million, even with Lingxi’s natural aura’s extra 10% addition, only reaching 6.6 million.

Even if Barbaric Roar’s burst state can temporarily suppress the opponent, it’s still uncertain to achieve a kill.

Anyway, he has already achieved his goal, there’s no need to take risks clashing directly with the opponent.

As for Bai Shangting and his daughter, he only promised a family reunion, without specifying when, nor having the intention to intervene in the Pantheon’s recruitment.

"Hidden Dragon, do you think I’m being too cold-blooded?"

Lin You couldn’t help but ask the Hidden Dragon beneath him.

"Not at all." Hidden Dragon replied with a deep, resonant voice, "I think Master is too kind, there’s absolutely no need to care about the lives of those ants. If anything happens to Master, we would die too."

"You are quite honest," Lin You said with mixed feelings.

"Forgive me, Master. Our duty is to protect your safety, other matters are not within our consideration."

Hidden Dragon’s words were very serious, as if narrating an unquestionable truth.

They were transformed from Lin You’s Soul Power and endowed with independent wisdom, making Lin You naturally their creator and the one they are determined to protect.

"No need to apologize, you are not wrong." Lin You said with a smile, his expression becoming more complex.

"Along the way, my hands are stained with too much blood, even I don’t know if I might lose even the most basic humanity at the end."

Since when did killing become such a common affair to him, not stirring any waves within?

It feels as though the last shred of humanity in his heart is being slowly devoured by this world, turning him into a cold-blooded humanoid monster.

"Everything is just for survival." Hidden Dragon’s voice echoed again.

"Yes... for survival." Lin You sighed, pondering who knows what.

As if sensing his emotions, Hidden Dragon paused, then abruptly suggested: "If Master worries about it, then after everything’s done, find a place to live well."

"Go, go, stop jinxing it, such words shouldn’t be said."

Upon hearing Hidden Dragon’s words, Lin You felt an ominous vibe, recalling a phrase once overheard.

"After this war is over, I’ll go back and get married."

Then.

No more was there.

The person who said this eventually died on the battlefield.

Through the spiritual link, Hidden Dragon understood the implication of his words and promptly shut up, not daring to speak recklessly again.

Yet it was also because of the company of these Royals that made Lin You’s journey seem a little less dull.

Seeing the Demon Suppression City fading from view, he immediately returned to business, retrieving the personnel registry he just acquired from his personal space, and started reviewing it.

The first page showed the organization’s hierarchical structure of the entire Pantheon.

From top to bottom, it lists Hall Master, Elders, Stewards, Core Members, High-level Members, and Low-level Members.

Excluding the Hall Master, there are seven Elders below, each overseeing a sub-hall, and all possessing Tier Thirteen True God Level, with no specific levels recorded individually.

The number of Stewards and Core Members beneath is quite large, flipping through several pages to finish, all boasting levels above Tier Twelve.

As for lower-tier members, there isn’t much detailed record, nor are they subjects Lin You needs to focus on.

Thus, he quickly skipped past the recorded pages and flipped directly to the back.

Only to unexpectedly find a string of peculiar records on the last few pages.

"Dongyu City, captured two people of the Ten Thousand Realms, killed one, and extracted the soul."

"Guanghua City, captured one person of the Ten Thousand Realms."

"Rock City, captured three people of the Ten Thousand Realms, extracted two souls, one escaped."

...

"Every successful capture rewards 10,000 Law Crystal Stones, and informants are rewarded 1,000 of the same tier Law Crystal Stones."

"The rest have been transported to the Pantheon, awaiting fate."

...

The entire record extends line after line.

The more Lin You read, the darker his expression turned, until it reached an icy coldness, his eyes surging with endless killing intent.

This record actually documents the whereabouts of their Ten Thousand Realms Emperor!

Moreover, there were enough pages to record over a hundred individuals.

All captured by the Pantheon, with some even directly slaughtered and souls extracted.

Lin You certainly understood why they did this—they wanted to find the World Core he merged with!

They murdered so many of the Ten Thousand Realms for one object.

Utterly deserving of death!

Haven’t they pushed them enough within the Ten Thousand Realms already!?

At this moment.

Lin You could no longer suppress the rage within him, his hands trembling violently.

Strongly resisting the urge to tear the registry to shreds, he closed it up, took a deep breath, then forcibly suppressed his anger, gradually calming himself down.

Based on the information acquired from Bai Shangting.

Recently, the Pantheon indeed had been actively capturing those ascending from the Ten Thousand Realms.

Which indicates not all Emperors have been apprehended by the Pantheon.

Or rather.

The spatial turbulence resulting from the Celestial Lord God’s Soul Space collapse disrupted their transmission locations, forcing the Pantheon to dispatch personnel for a widespread search.

Unexpectedly at this final moment.

It was this unknown Main God who opened a path of life for them.

"Since you want us dead, you can’t blame me."

Lin You’s face was icy cold, a terrifying aura surged wildly, startling the low-tier demons along the way, causing them to scatter.

Back in the Ten Thousand Realms, he was forced to fuse with the World Core to preserve the incense of the realms.

After arriving in the Divine Realm, however, misfortune followed, with countless Great Emperors meeting their demise by poison.

The other Great Emperors were not well acquainted with him.

But the Great Emperors of the Primordial Realm, especially the Saint Radiance Emperor, had shown him grace; he could not turn a blind eye.

If they were among those captured, he must find a way to rescue them.

It seems he must visit Pantheon.

He has no choice but to go.

"Hidden Dragon, increase the speed."

"Received!"

Sensing Lin You’s current emotions, Hidden Dragon didn’t waste words and immediately accelerated to its maximum speed, flying south.

...

At this moment.

Far away on the front lines of Pantheon City.

The five Pantheon Elders were leading hundreds of thousands of high-tier Lords to fend off the attacking Demon King Army’s four great generals and their demonic forces.

"Charge!"

"Kill!!"

"Slay all these monsters!"

With deafening shouts and cries of battle, the armies clashed fiercely.

Wherever one’s eyes could see, the ground was littered with the bodies of species and demons, blood staining the earth red.

High above, five Tier Thirteen Elders led flying species, engaging intensely with four Tier Thirteen demon generals.

Terrifying auras exploded continuously, forcing other Lords and demons to stay away.

"Poisonous Woman, you push us so hard; aren’t you afraid our Hall Master will intervene!?"

At the rear of the team, Elder Three, commanding the species in battle, shouted angrily, his forehead long covered with sweat.

This was a sign of the Power of Law being exhausted.

"Damn reptiles, I already sense your master’s presence on your side. Hand him over, and we’ll spare you!"

The demon referred to as Poisonous Woman was a giant Black Widow spider with a twisted human face.

Each time its huge poison sac sprayed venom, it brought forth numerous Tier Thirteen spider offspring, almost covering the entire battlefield.

With just its presence alone, it fended off Elder Three and another Elder’s attacks.

The remaining three demon generals were equally fierce, using their overwhelming bodies to almost suppress the other three Elders.

Five against four, and they were still at a disadvantage!

"All that talk of some master, I’ve never heard of it; I think you’re just using it as an excuse to attack us!"

Elder Six beside Elder Three shouted loudly, with Angel species bursting Holy Light, driving away the surrounding demons.

The presence of Elder Six supporting from the rear was the reason Pantheon had not been breached.

Meanwhile.

The Pantheon Elders were equally puzzled.

After years of conflict between them, it was the first time they’d seen the Demon King Army so frenzied, launching such an all-out attack.

Even when Demon King Barton’s offspring was captured by the Hall Master, they weren’t this eager.

Could it be the "master" they mentioned was truly within Pantheon’s jurisdiction?

What kind of being could drive them to such madness?

No, this must be reported to the Hall Master.

This might be their opportunity to repel and even strike a devastating blow to the Demon King Army!

With this thought, the Elders exchanged glances.

And finally, they held nothing back, unleashing their strongest moves, re-engaging fiercely with the four great demon generals.

...

"Hurry, hurry! The front line urgently needs supplies; quickly send these Recovery Potions over!"

"Also, the Holy Light magic artifacts newly crafted these past few days, get them over quickly; those demons fear these!"

Outside Pantheon City, team after team bustled about, loading vast amounts of supplies onto flying mounts and continuously sending them to the front.

Near the city gates, carriages rolled past, transporting numerous supplies.

The city’s interior and exterior bustled with activity, drawing countless spectators from afar.

Just then.

A Jade Green Dragon appeared in the distance, quickly approaching.

"What is that?"

"Seems like a Plant Type Jade Green Dragon."

"Jade Green Dragon? Are they usually this large?"

"Such powerful aura! It’s certainly above Tier Twelve!"

Spectators were astonished, their gazes fixating on the immense figure that suddenly appeared.

For that Green Dragon was simply too large!

Even a Tier Twelve Jade Green Dragon was only half its size.

What shocked them more was the aura emitted by the figure on the dragon’s back, which felt overwhelming even from afar.

"Is this... Pantheon City?"

On Hidden Dragon’s broad back, Lin You ignored the gazes of onlookers, instead focusing his sight ahead, silently observing the enormous city before him.
