Let the mountain puppet search for some low-level ancient demons, naturally to create a "guard team" for Zero.
These personnel are the ones who will accompany Zero as undercover agents in the Demon Realm.
Wen Yu cannot fully trust Zero; even with restrictions in place, he cannot completely guarantee Zero's loyalty. Thus, creating a few additional soul creations for Zero to bring back to the Demon Realm became the best option—Little White, as a hidden agent, cannot be exposed to Zero.
For a level one ancient demon, the creation energy required for "perfect resurrection" is not much, and Wen Yu can afford it. Even if there are losses, he won't feel heartbroken. After resurrection, Wen Yu can also cultivate them later. With his means and resources, he can easily elevate these beings to level five or even level six in a short time.
Low cost, high growth potential, high risk, but also high reward.
This is how Wen Yu plans to manage the line with Zero. Overall, the risks are indeed not small, but once successful, the returns will not be negligible either.
It is still worth doing.
After arranging the undercover operations, Wen Yu briefly surveyed the entire battlefield situation—the overall progress is quite smooth, and the situation is developing in a good direction. It won't be long before Wen Yu can fully control the entire African continent, turning it into his true territory.
A territory without outsiders, a territory entirely under his control, a territory where he completely dominates everything, a territory free of conspiracy and deception.
Of course, there is one more important point—a territory that Wen Yu can abandon at will...
The collection of creation energy is extremely fast, and correspondingly, the consumption of soul puppets becomes negligible. Even if the demonic clan sends troops again to reclaim the African continent, Wen Yu can simply pack up and leave.
At most, he would just store a few powerful soul puppets in the Netherworld; it’s not a difficult task.
This is Wen Yu's true thought about the territory—his foundation lies within himself and the spirit pets, not in any particular piece of land.
In the end, soul creation and the African continent are merely by-products of the soul creation technique.
Having finalized future development strategies, Wen Yu focused his attention on the only battlefield with variables: the East African Rift Valley.
……
Time rewinds to just now.
After the one-eyed agent reported the intelligence of the East African Rift Valley to Wen Yu, he no longer paid attention to the mutated beast legion led by Xing, which was attacking a large base nearby. Instead, he turned to Bai beside him.
"Big Boss Bai, when do we set off?"
Seeing the one-eyed agent eager to try, Bai gave a half-smile and asked in return, "Have you finished reporting to your boss?"
The one-eyed agent rolled his eyes but didn't provide any explanation—everyone understood this situation; the one-eyed agent was essentially an informant placed by Wen Yu beside Bai, and Bai wouldn’t make a fuss about it.
How should I put it? It could be considered a kind of unspoken tacit understanding.
As the sounds of battle grew louder in the distance, Bai glanced at his watch and murmured, "It's time, follow me."
With that, he immediately led the charge towards the location of the East African Rift Valley. Behind him, Ye Nan and Zhang Shaojie followed closely, and the one-eyed agent quickly shrank his form, stepping in rhythm behind Bai.
……
The East African Rift Valley is the largest fault zone on the world's continents; from satellite photos, it looks like a massive scar, famously known as the "Scar of the Earth."
To the outside world, the East African Rift Valley is merely a larger canyon, though it is spectacular, it is hard for high-level professionals to feel much awe.
Looking at the desolate East African Rift Valley ahead, the one-eyed agent peered over the edge of the canyon—Wen Yu had specified the location in the East African Rift Valley, but the source extraction device's preset location should be at the bottom of the canyon.
