“…” Qin Muye was somewhat dumbfounded. It looked like a Divine being, but could a Divine be so weak? Oh, it turned out to be exactly that weak.

“No, you are not.”

“It looks like an eagle but is actually made of human materials. This is the first time I’ve encountered such a bizarre thing.”

“You know all this and still ask me?” Qin Muye had been waiting for it to say that and instantly snapped back.

“You may call me the Star Eagle.”

“What are you?” Star Eagle asked from across the ecological chamber.

“Tell me about yourself,” Qin Muye slowly sat down on a chair and asked, looking relaxed, but in reality, he had recorded a lot of data about Star Eagle.

“Born of nature, borrowing a human body to come into this world.” Qin Muye was a bit puzzled; in the Primordial World, this thing would be considered an Innate Divine Demon from the legends.

“I am human!” Qin Muye said firmly.

“I am the falcon that flutters my wings among the stars, mastering starlight and talons, born from the Heart of the World!”

“It’s basically certain now; both the Martial Artist and the Secret Spirit Master were just unfortunate victims of exploitation, but the Martial Artist broke free, avoiding tragedy.”

“Seems like Star Eagle is entering the final stages of fusion, intriguing stuff,” observed Qin Muye, watching the fusion of Sky Eagle Martial Arts Will and Starry Sky Secret Spirit in the simulated ecological chamber.

“Tsk, instead of dealing with the Apocalypse Level menace of the door’s demon, they think of taking on the Umbrella Company, these Transcendents must have their brains kicked by a donkey,” Qin Muye couldn’t help but marvel.

However, since it itself is a bizarre creature with the power of a sixth-order, it could basically dominate this world.

Here, though, it was just for show, really intimidating.

Probably due to severe infighting, they had no time to pay attention.

A lot of data had been recorded by Qin Muye, he discovered that this Star Eagle was not a regular organism, neither a flesh and blood nor an energy being, it felt to him like some kind of imprint.

But as intelligence got transmitted back, the Umbrella Company emerged into view, shocking all Transcendents, whose first thought was naturally to quickly eliminate it.

But after disclosing just the tip of the iceberg about the Umbrella Company in the intelligence, it also made everyone feel it was troublesome.

But it was this abnormal behavior that caused many Secret Martial Sects and Secret Spirit Organizations not to take much action, instead covertly starting to activate their sleepers within the Duke Federation to investigate what was really happening.

Initially, the Divine beings of the Magic Continent Server had similar strength to this so-called Star Eagle, both sixth-order, so weaknesses were normal.

Of course, the presence of this specific Star Eagle appeared slightly more prestigious, probably the only one in this world; rare things are precious, if they were common, they definitely wouldn’t be appreciated.

Of course, if the Duke Federation couldn’t hold through, the Umbrella Company would immediately rise and directly take over the Elder Council in the name of righteousness, then move in themselves.

When the fusion was complete, spots of light on Star Eagle’s body twinkled, like gazing directly at a host of stars.

Then, capturing it to extract energy to fuel the Illusion Dream Realm could potentially earn his domain a significant amount of fuel.

Well, normal stars, after restoring their positions, won’t awaken any major horrors.

And now, he was definitely going to severely thrash both Martial Artists and Secret Spirit Masters, given his genuine hatred.

This action was naturally perceived by Star Eagle, that ubiquitous vision constantly sweeping over its body, making it extremely uncomfortable.

Instead, the collaboration between Umbrella Company and Duke Federation was what realistically damaged their interests.

More specifically, it was an imprint, an imprint of the world, different from rules.

More importantly, it could feel how terrifying the area it was in could be; once it left this ecological chamber, the Endless Abyss Power would instantly corrode its body and mind.

Rules are rigid, such as water flowing downwards and the like.

The fall of the Black Moth Sect immediately spread throughout the north and south of the river, shocking both the Secret Martial Sect and the Secret Spirit Organization.

There might also be time to deal with the Abyssal creature unexpectedly created by Qin Muye, but not now–it probably would need to wait until the Umbrella Company’s products were widespread.

If not addressed, allowing the opponent to grow unchecked is something no one would like to see.

Resources were being consumed daily like flowing water, and even Qin Muye found it painful to watch. Painful as it was, the resources still had to be used and savings had to be made in the right places.

Qin Muye naturally expressed that they could do as they please since he was not the housekeeper.

The Star Eagle didn’t hesitate to speak.

“Let them go. No one wants to be the vanguard, especially since it might really lead to being killed and having their lineage severed.”

No one had expected that the seemingly weak and vulnerable Duke Federation would take such a significant action, especially just after the incident with the Super Soldier Serum. They should have been lying low, but they dared to undertake such an audacious act.

Although it hinted at freeloading, Black Hand’s eyes lit up–it indeed was a good idea. They might want the land later, but for now, they only need resources.

Mining them was a bit troublesome, but due to the circumstances, it could be justified as an occupation.

So, to date, there were no results, as everyone was passing the buck and hoping other powers would take the lead, preserving their own forces. Regardless of the outcome, they could benefit from the rear.

Thus, Qin Muye guessed, it would take one or two days at the shortest, or three to five days at the longest, before the fighting would inevitably start.

How did he know this? It was simple–he saw the orders. After their first victory, the Duke Federation placed many orders, even promising to allow the Umbrella Company to mine resources as a way to settle debts if they reclaimed lost territory.

He had realized that the creature from the Abyss he had created was initially meant as a minor distraction, but now it was almost becoming a decent energy entity. If it developed further, Qin Muye would make a fortune.

Things born and raised naturally were plentiful, truly not impressive at all when it came down to it.

Compared to making money, he was better suited to spending it. The figure on any given day of his experimental expenditures was astronomically high, and without the support of the entire Endless Abyss, his research and experiments would have left him starved, if not for the fact he was not human.

Seeing this, Star Eagle dared not object because it felt the man before it was not easy to provoke and always harbored some malice towards it, as if wanting to rip it open.

What else could be done? With the investment made, it certainly couldn’t just watch it fail.

If the Duke Federation were to break free from control, there likely would be no good days ahead.

Once the Duke Federation rose and reclaimed authority, it was clear that those good days would be over.

Initially, they thought the Duke Federation was using Hong Tianlei, especially since they had seen the photos of the Black Moth Sect’s base, which was indeed bombed into ruin.

Because of its characteristics, Qin Muye named it the Star Eagle.

After the Secret Martial Sect and the Secret Spirit Organization came to their senses, they would certainly surround and aim to disrupt the rise of the Duke Federation.

In Black Hand’s eyes, earning less was acceptable, but running at a loss was absolutely not!

This left Qin Muye unsure how to respond–saying he was something wasn’t appropriate; saying he was not something was even less appropriate.

The creature really had the potential to cause an apocalypse. It was already at a Level 6, but reaching Level 7 wasn’t so easy, and Qin Muye estimated that it would require the lifeforce of all beings in the Secret Martial World and still not be enough.

The idea was good, meaning “I have no money, but if I win the land, it’s mine; however, you can mine the resources within to settle debts, and we absolutely won’t interfere.”

This point could not be neglected.

The entire Duke Federation needed to survive this ordeal. If they made it through, they would be transformed; if not, they were doomed.

As for the threat from the Face Monster, it had long since been dismissed from their minds. The Urgent Umbrella Company before them was the real threat, and the havoc wrought by the purported Face Monster was not on their territory, so it didn’t concern them.

The Duke Federation indeed had this idea, but alas, they were unable to realize it. Before the arrival of Qin Muye’s Umbrella Company, their adversary had disrupted their emerging Super Soldier plan.

Like mountain spirits and rock monsters, every one of them was the same.

As Sect Masters and Chairmen, these leader-level figures had lived for many years. Even if their brains were all muscle, they could see that their present peace was due to having suppressed the Duke Federation. As long as the Duke Federation remained weak, they could control their territories under the system of feudal conferment, thereby deriving benefits.
