Chapter 172: Chapter 125: War Knight, Exaggerated Enhancement

War!

A craving for a glorious, all-out war welled up from within, a desperate urge to rush onto the battlefield and fight the enemy to the bitter end!

"This Power... is that Blood Roar?" Hellish Roar looked at his Lord in surprise.

"Yes. I had him fuse with that Demon’s heart." Shen Xing nodded, suppressing the tremor in his own heart. "It looks like the fusion is almost complete."

"Such immense Power. Even I’m being affected quite a bit," Hellish Roar praised sincerely. "Blood Roar’s improvement is huge this time."

As time passed, an even deeper aura emanated from the blood-red mist, and the craving for war grew more and more intense.

The Beastmen in the territory all had bloodshot eyes. They gripped their weapons, hot air snorting from their nostrils.

The skeletons paced back and forth on the city walls, restless and agitated.

Inferior Demons took to the sky, their ghostly Green pupils scanning the surroundings, their killing intent laid bare.

Even the distant Hellfire awoke from its slumber, the flames around its body flaring six or seven meters high.

At this moment, every combatant in the entire territory seemed to have entered a frenzied State, desperate to charge into battle with the enemy!

BOOM! BOOM BOOM!

In a daze, they seemed to hear the sound of a heavy drum, or perhaps an ancient heartbeat.

BOOM BOOM! BOOM BOOM!

The sound grew more intense, causing their hearts to race, blood to surge wildly through their veins, and their body temperatures to spike.

Just as that intense battlelust was about to reach its peak, it suddenly vanished.

Immediately after, a tall figure with crimson skin, riding a blood-red Fierce Beast, slowly emerged from the mist.

It was Blood Roar.

But at this moment, he had undergone a world-shaking transformation from head to toe.

His originally dark Green skin had turned completely blood-red. Energy veins circled his upper body, pulsing in time with his breathing.

His build had become taller and more robust, and his face was no longer as ferocious as before, now carrying a somewhat profound air.

Most notably, a full head of long, red hair had grown on his scalp, a stark contrast to Hellish Roar’s bald head.

Even the Warg he rode, whose fur was previously gray, had now turned blood-red.

Its fangs jutted out, and it radiated an even more savage aura.

Blood Roar stepped out of the blood-red mist, raised the long-handled axe in his hand, and threw his head back with a roar.

"ROAR!!!"

The deafening roar echoed throughout the entire territory, as if venting the pain he had just endured, and also as if announcing his return.

A series of system notifications flashed before Shen Xing’s eyes.

[Your territory’s Soldier Type: ’Blood Roar’ has successfully fused with the ’Heart of the War Demon General’ and has gained Control over a portion of the War Authority.]

[Hidden Class Activated: War Knight]

[This Soldier Type’s Potential has been greatly increased. All Attributes +50%, Attack Power +20%!]

[Exclusive Skills Activated: Power of War (Passive), Declaration of Strife]

[Exclusive Talent Activated: War Authority]

...

[Ding! Your territory’s Soldier Type, Blood Roar, has absorbed the Power of the ’Heart of the War Demon General’, broken through his Tier limit, and has officially advanced to Tier Two (Extraordinary Level).]

[Level cap increased to Level 19. All Attributes +100%!]

[Ding! ’Blood Roar’ has reached Level 14. Attributes have been increased.]

——

When the notifications ended, Shen Xing was completely dumbfounded.

’Wait, is this [Heart of the War Demon General] really that insane?’

It not only allowed Blood Roar to activate a hidden class, but it also let him break through his bottleneck in one fell swoop, advance to Tier Two, and shoot straight to Level 14.

’Isn’t this Effect a little too terrifying?’

However, this indirectly showed just how immense the Energy contained within that heart was.

For Blood Roar to have forcibly absorbed it with the body of a Tier One Beastman was nothing short of a miracle.

’Excellent, excellent. As expected of the second-greatest prodigy of the Beastmen.’

’Emperor Blood Roar, never outmatched in his entire life!’

Shen Xing suppressed his excitement, opened Emperor Blood Roar’s panel, and looked at his Skill Attributes.

[Power of War (Core Passive)]

[Effect: Absorb the Power of War from the battlefield and convert it into personal Power.

It can be applied to oneself or other Soldier Types, granting a temporary Fake Dominator state (cannot be easily knocked back) and increasing certain Attributes.

It can also be infused into allied weapons, imbuing them with War Fire, which increases Armor Piercing and Area Splash Damage.

Additionally, a large amount of the Power of War can be released at once to awaken the heroic souls on the battlefield to fight for you.]

(Note: This ability has extremely high growth Potential. As this Soldier Type’s strength increases and he continues to develop the Power of War, more applications will be unlocked.)

...

...

[Declaration of Strife]

[Effect: Blood Roar can release the Power of War from a long distance (current maximum range: 2000 meters), forcing enemies in a certain area into a state of ’Absolute Chaos’.

In this State, enemies will indiscriminately attack the nearest unit, regardless of whether they are friend or foe, for 12 seconds.

If cast on an allied unit, it grants immunity to fear and chaos effects, while also increasing Attack Speed and movement speed by 55% for 30 seconds.

Cooldown: 15 minutes]

(Note: I hereby declare that strife has begun!)

...

...

’This War Knight... is a bit different from what I imagined.’

Shen Xing was a little surprised. In his mind, a War Knight should be the type of class that charges into enemy lines, a dauntless vanguard.

’Why do Blood Roar’s two Skills feel more geared towards support and incitement?’

Especially the second Skill, [Declaration of Strife]. Being able to throw enemies into chaos and make them kill each other from such a great distance was truly insidious.

’Just imagine: you’re just chilling in your territory, eating hotpot and singing songs.’

’Then, the brother-in-arms who fought alongside you suddenly picks up his blade and starts hacking at anyone he sees.’

’After he’s done, he doesn’t even know what happened or where the enemy is.’

’Just thinking about it sends a chill down my spine!’

However... if this Skill is used well, it’s an absolute team-fight engine.

For example, when encountering special areas with large groups of monsters, he could just have Blood Roar use it a few times from a distance.

With the monsters’ low intelligence, they probably wouldn’t know what hit them even as they died, only thinking their best comrades had betrayed them.

To protect themselves, they too would pick up their weapons and start attacking indiscriminately.

Then the situation would escalate until it engulfed the entire area.

Shen Xing might not even need to lift a finger to take over the area without any losses.

’Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!’

The more Shen Xing thought about it, the more he felt this Skill had endless Potential and many more possibilities to explore.

Next, he opened Blood Roar’s Talent and looked at its Attributes.

[War Authority (Exclusive Talent)]

[Effect: Every time Blood Roar experiences a campaign or incites a war, he will draw Power from it, permanently increasing his own Attributes.

The magnitude of the increase varies depending on factors such as the scale of the war, the number of participants, and its historical impact.

This Talent can be improved indefinitely.]

(Note: Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make people kill each other. To him was given a great sword.)
