A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 611 Savior! (Bonus Chapter for Donations)
Outside the palace of the Eternal Winter Empire, all the orcs looked up at the sky in despair. The star gate that tore through the firmament was slowly opening, like a death gate leading to hell, releasing the Grim Reaper who would reap lives.

Their attacks gradually subsided, and hope faded from everyone's hearts.

An alien invasion has arrived, and this continent is heading towards destruction.

They tried their best, but they couldn't change anything.

"It's over, it's all over. The continent is going to be destroyed, and everyone will die."

"We are no match for aliens, what's the point of struggling?"

"If you fail, no amount of resistance will help; you will ultimately be unable to escape your fate of destruction!"

With morale low, the army was no longer able to resist.

Watching all this, Shen Tang was also enveloped in despair. Had everything they had done truly been in vain?

No, it's impossible.

It's not the last moment yet, there's still a chance to turn things around.

At times like these, as a leader, she cannot give up.

She leaped to a high vantage point, gazing upon every figure on the battlefield, her gentle yet resolute voice rekindling the flames in their hearts: "Soldiers, we have not failed! Everything we have done has been meaningful!"

"Did everyone see that? The stargate isn't fully open; part of it has already been damaged. We still have a chance to destroy it completely!"

Yes, the stargate was not fully opened; only a small passage was torn open.

The door was covered in cracks, and the slowly rotating starry sky was like a shattered screen. Several areas had turned black, and only one section had been forcibly broken through from the inside, allowing the aliens and the experimental subjects to escape.

However, the main body of the stargate remained closed, preventing the alien army from launching a full-scale attack. They could only enter in waves – they still had a chance to turn the tide! They still had a chance to destroy the stargate!

Shen Li slowly spoke up, "Xiao Tang'er is right, we still have a chance to close the star gate."

The words of this noble fox king were like a shot of adrenaline, striking everyone's hearts and rekindling a glimmer of hope in their despairing souls.

"Really, really?"

"Please tell us what to do?" they asked desperately, as if grasping at a last straw.

Shen Li took out the long-lost Earth Source Core from his spatial storage.

It is no longer the gray and gloomy thing it once was, but has become dazzling again, as if it contains infinite energy and is full of vitality.

"This is the core of the continent's geomantic origin. If the ley lines are the blood vessels of this continent, then the core of the geomantic origin is the heart that connects the blood vessels. This heart had stopped beating for various reasons, but I used the secret techniques of the fox clan to re-condense the power of the ley lines and restore its vitality."

The gentle charm of the past was gone from Shen Li's face. He calmly swept his gaze over the thousands of orcs on the battlefield, and his deep voice carried a calming power, "I am fortunate to have learned the method of closing the star gate from ancient books."

"It was by using the power of the Earth's core that the earthquake was quelled, the passage between the two worlds was unilaterally sealed, and the star gate was completely closed!"

The crowd was so excited by his words that they failed to notice the underlying heaviness in his voice.

"Your Majesty Yehui and the Fox King are right! It's not over yet, we haven't lost, and there's still time!"

"This general will lead his troops in a desperate resistance!"

"Haha, since we're going to die anyway, we might as well die on the battlefield. That would be a worthy death!"

"That's right, even if we die, we'll take a few damn aliens with us!"

"At worst, we'll all die together, and nobody will survive!"

"Fight to the death! Never admit defeat!"

With a clear goal, hope was rekindled in everyone's heart, and they regained their courage to move forward.

The soldiers took up their weapons again and charged into battle against the alien army.

The two sides clashed fiercely, resulting in numerous deaths and injuries.

The aliens were an overwhelming force against the orcs of the continent.

The battle was so fierce that defeat seemed inevitable, yet not a single person retreated. Amidst the flashing blades and the clash of swords, they fought with all their might, launching an all-out attack on that sinister stargate.

Even at the cost of burning one's own primal power, I would not hesitate!

The Star Gate was indeed cracked again after suffering heavy losses at the cost of lives on the Beast World Continent.

The orcs' confidence was greatly boosted, and they desperately continued their attack.

But simply destroying the stargate is not enough. The stargate is just a gate; what's truly important is the passage connecting the two worlds behind it.

The passage must be completely sealed to thwart the alien invasion plan. Otherwise, even if this door is destroyed, they can build another one, and the cataclysmic disaster will never end.

According to Shen Li, the Blood Clan Prophecy Book records the method to close the Star Gate: at least one Yuan Beast level beastman is needed to activate the power of the Earth Source Core in order to completely seal the Star Gate!
However, to seal the passage, one must approach the star gate.

The Star Gate is now heavily guarded by the alien army, and they will never allow them to succeed. The beastmen sent there are destined to die at most.

Shen Tang said to Shen Li, "Let me go. I am the most suitable candidate."

As a powerful Yuan-rank beastman, she possesses teleportation and spatial abilities, making her the most suitable person to carry out this mission!

Shen Li said firmly, "No, this person can be any one of us, but it absolutely cannot be you."

"why?"

"There's no reason why, it just absolutely can't be you!"

Shen Li left no room for negotiation. He looked at her with deep sorrow, his voice trembling slightly, "Little Tang'er, you know what this means. I will never let you risk going there!"

Jialan rushed over and grabbed her tightly, firmly saying, "I don't agree to you going!"

If someone absolutely has to go, then let him go.

Since he had already died once, this body was nothing but an inanimate object, so dying again wouldn't matter.

Lu Xiao gazed at her, his voice low and firm, "My lady, please allow me to fight in your place. To fight for the king is the mission of every Lu family head, and for me, it is the highest honor."

He is a flying beastman, and besides Shen Tang, he is the most suitable candidate.

Whether as the head of the Lu family or as her beastly husband, he was willing to be her sword and shield. To protect her life and safeguard her land—that was the meaning of his existence.

Looking into the affectionate eyes of the beastmen, Shen Tang felt a lump in her throat and her eyes welled up with tears.

She shook her head and refused, "...Don't act impulsively! You all know that no one is more suitable than me."

They didn't want her to put herself in danger, and she didn't want anything to happen to them either.

Moreover, at a time like this, all sentimental feelings should be put aside; victory is the most important thing!
She is the most suitable candidate; that is an undeniable fact!
Shen Tang immediately tried to snatch the Earth Source Core from Shen Li's hand, but Shen Li reacted extremely quickly, and the two of them grabbed the core at the same time, while he insisted on not letting go.

Seeing their stalemate, Xiao Jin chuckled, "Alright, stop arguing. It's like children playing house, so childish! You're just making a fool of yourselves!"

He wiped the blood from his face, strode over, and said nonchalantly, "Don't forget I have teleportation skills! The most suitable person for this mission is none other than me!"

The disparity in strength between the two sides is vast; to successfully execute the plan, they must catch each other off guard. Shen Tang's spatial abilities might be discovered... but in this world, no one is faster than him, and no one can catch him!

Shen Tang immediately refused, "No way—"

Xiao Jin smiled at her and said, "Tangtang, you said it yourself, don't act rashly on the battlefield."

The man still had that roguish and fearless look, but his smile seemed different from usual, making Shen Tang's eyes sting and leaving her speechless for a moment.

They couldn't possibly let her, as a monarch and a woman, take such a risk.

Xiao Jin is the person most capable of ensuring the mission's success.

Xiao Jin touched her face and said with a smile, "Don't make that face. Don't you believe in my abilities?"

"I……"

"Don't forget, my life belongs to you." Xiao Jin looked down at her, a slight smile playing on his lips.

His handsome face was smeared with blood, whether from the enemy or himself, it was hard to tell, which only added to his wicked and dashing air.

He hugged her tightly, so tightly that he almost crushed her into his bones, and whispered in her ear, "Tangtang, take care of yourself... remember to think of me."

"I love you."

Before Shen Tang could react, he swiftly snatched the Earth Source Core, transformed into a beast form, held it in his mouth, and charged straight toward the Star Gate!

Layers of dark clouds gathered high in the sky, turning into a sky full of lightning. Any mutant species struck by the lightning was almost instantly reduced to ashes!
However, a lithe black figure rushed through the lightning without being injured. The fierce and terrifying lightning seemed to transform into a stairway to heaven beneath his feet!
The black panther leaped and ascended rapidly, its four paws treading on lightning, almost transforming into a black lightning bolt, rushing towards the star gate at such a speed that its movements were too fast to be seen!

"Stop him quickly!"

The alien orcs attacked Black Panther in an attempt to stop his movements!

Black Panther struggled alone, and even though he was covered in wounds, he never gave up any opportunity to get close to the stargate.

As they drew closer, Black Panther sustained more and more injuries.

Black fur is usually the best way to conceal injuries, but now it's torn to shreds, with flesh and blood visible, and even individual ribs.

The injuries on his body were shocking!
Shen Tang's breathing trembled, and the tears that had been welling up in her eyes finally fell, leaving her face covered in tear stains.

But her voice was more composed and resolute than ever before, imbued with spiritual power, and resounded throughout every corner of the battlefield: "I hereby appoint Xiao Jin as the First Commander. All members of the Dawn Alliance shall obey his orders and protect him at all costs!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

"As ordered!"

"Everyone, cover Commander Xiao Jin!"

"Charge!"

The beastmen obeyed orders and rushed to the front lines, even using themselves as human shields to clear a path for Xiao Jin.

Faced with the orc army's fierce attack, the alien's expression grew increasingly grim.

This beast world, which they considered to be just a low-level continent, should have been easily annihilated, but instead it caused them to suffer heavy losses and failed to conquer it after a long siege!

Now they actually want to destroy the stargate? What a pipe dream!

The battle intensified, and the sky was stained blood-red.

The entire Beast World continent is experiencing a massive catastrophe, but the casualties on the Star Gate side are undoubtedly the most severe!
The leader of the Stone Rhinoceros tribe has been killed in action.

General Jin Yu has fallen in battle.

The Mad Lion Tribe has fallen.

The Rosenian army was routed.

All 36251 orcs in the Prey Kingdom's army were killed in action.

The entire Valsia army was annihilated...

【…】

System announcements rang out in my mind one after another.

Living, breathing lives have been reduced to cold numbers and notification sounds.

Shen Tang closed her eyes tightly, her heart aching so much she could hardly breathe.

She opened her eyes and looked at the horrific battlefield, her eyes filled with blood, and countless green light spots gathered around her.

The fluorescent light, like countless fireflies, drifted among the flames and ruins, merging into the bodies of the dead and wounded.

The orcs, too badly wounded to fight any longer, felt this warm power, and their broken bodies regained their fighting strength; their severed limbs healed. Without hesitation, they picked up their weapons again and charged back into the battlefield.

The orcs who died in the ruins opened their eyes again. They were shocked to see their intact bodies. Having survived a brush with death, they were even more fearless of life and death.

Death after death, resurrection after resurrection.

That inexhaustible vitality seems to never disappear.

"Damn it, what the hell is going on?"

The alien army was completely dumbfounded; they couldn't seem to kill all these orcs!
Soon, they discovered that Shen Tang was behind it all.

"Kill that female!"

The leading heretics abandoned their immediate opponent and charged at her.

Xue Yinzhou, Lu Xiao, Shen Li, and Jia Lan stopped them and worked together to protect Shen Tang, preventing anyone from getting close.

The beastmen did everything in their power to protect Shen Tang.

However, the alien general on the other side also possessed the strength of a Yuan Beast.

Shen Li and his companions were covered in wounds, their clothes were torn, and they were at their last gasp.

Shen Tang's tears flowed even more fiercely. She gritted her teeth and unleashed her supernatural power almost recklessly.

That's not enough; it's far from enough.

She can be even stronger...

She must become stronger!
Try your best!
Under the terrifying drain on his supernatural power, Shen Tang's face grew increasingly pale, as if all his strength had been squeezed out, and even his breathing became unstable.

A cool yet embrace caught her as she swayed, followed by a refreshing, ocean-like warmth.

Shen Tang looked up at the young man with those azure eyes, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed uncontrollably, "I...I can't save so many people...I can't hold on much longer..."

How to do?
She can comfort everyone, but the one who is most afraid of feeling helpless is actually herself.

She could see almost no hope of victory.

But Shen Tang couldn't show it; she had to make the soldiers believe they would win.

But who can offer her a word of comfort and make her believe in this victory?
Jialan gently stroked the female's pale cheek, as if she could see through the deepest helplessness and vulnerability in her heart.

He pressed his forehead against hers, and said with tenderness and concern, "Tangtang, don't be afraid, we will win."

"My power...I give it all to you..."

A blue light emanated from the youth's body, and the puppet-like form finally collapsed.

The light that carried all his power gently enveloped the woman like tender seawater.

The gentle, melodious sound, carried on the wind, lingered near her ear.

"From now on, I will never be afraid of not feeling you again; I will be with you."

This power merged into Shen Tang's body, becoming one with her.

From now on.

Through life and death, we live and coexist, never to be separated again.

The sound of the wind dissipating brought me satisfaction and joy.

On the smoke-filled battlefield, the woman knelt on one knee, cradling the lifeless puppet youth in her arms. A powerful surge of energy flowed into her body, replenishing her almost withered form, making her strength seem to have increased further, and even her aura became unfathomable!
A new, rotating light blue crystal core appeared in Shen Tang's spiritual sea of ​​consciousness, carrying all of its owner's power, memories, and emotions.

She hugged the doll tightly and finally broke down in tears.

"Alan...you're right, we will win..."

She absolutely cannot lose!

Shen Tang put the doll into his spatial storage, and his even more powerful and profound supernatural abilities poured out once again without reservation.

All the recovery potions in the space have been used up, and the system points are almost exhausted at an alarming rate.

In a daze, Shen Tang recalled the battle to defend the city against the rebels.

Back then, she had exhausted all her resources to single-handedly resurrect tens of thousands of orcs. This time, it's ten times, a hundred times! Even more!

[Warning! Host's health has dropped to the red line!] The system urgently reminds you, [Please stop immediately! Otherwise, you will lose all your health!]

A metallic taste rose in her throat, and a trickle of blood slowly flowed from the corner of Shen Tang's mouth. Yet, she laughed wildly, "Death? It doesn't seem so terrible after all..."

"Am I not an invincible Yuan Beast-level beastman? Well then, I'd like to test just how far I can go!"

Her spiritual power conjured hundreds of illusory figures, which broke through spatial teleportation and flew to various parts of the continent.

By this time, the Orcish continent had long since become a hellish place, filled with the devastation left by disaster.

In the icy plains, once hailed as a pristine land, glaciers and snow-capped mountains collapsed into ruins, burying thousands of orcs who couldn't escape under the ice.

Many people died.

Some of the buried orcs were still alive, but their bodies were frozen stiff, unable to escape, and could only watch helplessly as death approached.

Suddenly, a warm power flowed through their frozen bodies, gradually restoring sensation.

Even the dead orcs were resurrected.

Suddenly, countless explosions echoed across the deathly silent glacier, and one figure after another crawled out from the collapsing ice.

Looking at the desolate ice field before me...

They were all dumbfounded. Is this what hell looks like?

But when they felt the warmth and touch of the body, they clearly realized that they were still alive!

The once prosperous imperial city is now a scene of ruins and uncollected corpses, with screams of panic and the sounds of fierce fighting all around.

In a corner unnoticed by anyone, beside a bouquet of flowers that had long been trampled and beside dried, blackened bloodstains on the ground, a fallen corpse suddenly twitched its fingers, startling away the vultures and crows that had been perched on it.

The corpses scattered on the street and the pervasive aura of death gradually dissipated.

Many of the trampled corpses slowly returned to their original appearance, their pale and bluish skin regained its luster, and they actually got up from the ground and were reborn!
The beastmen who were fighting the mutated beasts were dumbfounded when they saw all this. It was even more outrageous than seeing a ghost!
But soon, they felt an invisible and warm power enter their bodies, and their injuries began to heal!

The mutated orcs also emitted black smoke, quickly transforming back into normal human forms, regaining their senses, and looking around in confusion, unaware of what had happened.

The Azure Sky King personally led his army to fight against the alien forces.

The two sides were vastly different in strength, and they suffered repeated defeats, soon unable to hold on.

The Azure Sky King slew down an alien with a single sword strike, but was caught off guard when another person pierced his heart.

She gritted her teeth and roared, seizing the opportunity to decapitate the other person, but she herself was also seriously injured and fell to the ground.

She thought her carefree life was about to end here, but suddenly she felt a warm power repairing her body!

The other winged beastmen's severely injured bodies were also healed!
The mermaid corpses piled up in the deep-sea trenches have all come back to life!
Qiu Yang was seriously injured in the battle against the high-level mutant strain. Just when he was about to be devoured, his injuries suddenly healed, the battle situation was instantly reversed, and he successfully turned the tables and killed the mutant.

Qiu Yang stared in shock at his perfectly intact body; the near-death experience just moments before felt like a dream.

This……

This is?

The master's power?!

The same miracle of death and resurrection has occurred in every corner of the continent.

The orcish people were shocked and had no idea what had happened.

An elderly man suddenly knelt down, excitedly shouting, "Has a god descended? It must be the legendary deity who has come to save us!"

Someone looked at the black and white cat phantom that had descended from the sky and exclaimed excitedly, "It's not a god, it's a human!"

It wasn't some ethereal deity, but living, breathing people who came to save them!
"It's His Majesty Shen Tang!"

In an instant, the world, once filled with death and despair, seemed to be reborn. Orcs from all over the world saw the same black and white cat phantom almost simultaneously.

It is like a fairy descended from the sky, traversing every corner of the world.

With each graceful leap and landing, a green light, symbolizing revival, emerges beneath its feet, spreading out like waves, sweeping away the gloom of despair, and re-coloring the bleak world with the colors of life and hope.

The beastmen couldn't help but follow that small figure.

Like a tiny spark, it ignited a field of hope.

More and more orcs joined in following him.

From high above, the dense black dots formed countless fan-shaped formations, all following the figure ahead tirelessly, like devout believers or an unstoppable army.

Shen Tang led them to take up arms again and fight against the alien army.

She led them to break off branches from the purification tree and ventured deep into the contaminated land to fight the mutated species.

The orcs shouted excitedly that their king was their savior who would lead them to victory!

They were filled with hope, with an unstoppable determination, fearless courage, and an unwavering belief in victory.

The world is destined to be reborn!
……

Meanwhile, at the Star Gate, Shen Tang suddenly saw a flash of white before her eyes, and belatedly realized that it was her hair.

A strand of silver hair began to emerge from the roots, and then her hair turned a pale white, like falling snow. Her exquisitely beautiful face also aged rapidly, like that of an old woman nearing the end of her life.

"puff--"

She coughed up a mouthful of blood, as if she heard a cracking sound coming from inside her body.

That was... the sound of a crystal core shattering.

Under excessive consumption, the crystal core could not withstand it and a crack appeared.

[Host! Stop immediately! System points are exhausted! If you continue, you will pay the price with your life force!]

Shen Tang could clearly feel the powerful supernatural energy within her body waning. This waning was different from the usual energy depletion; it was a slow, fundamental collapse.

Once her powers are exhausted, she will likely become a cripple, or even... lose her life.

[Host, I beg you, please stop!] The system's voice was trembling with tears. [Think about how hard you've come all this way. You've worked so hard to get all this. If you continue, it will all be for nothing, and you might even lose your life!]

No matter how powerful she is, she is still human.

How can a person reverse the cycle of birth and death?

She will bear all the consequences.

A mere flesh and blood body simply cannot withstand it; only death can pay the price.

Shen Tang's eyes were calm and still, without the slightest fluctuation. She slowly wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, looked up at the gray sky, and let out a soft laugh.

She said, "I am test subject number two, right?"

Six thousand words, three chapters combined into one, including a bonus chapter for "Ye Yuxin of Kalimnos Island" by Baozi (who received a reward). Baozi's four bonus chapters are now complete.

good night~
