the other side.

The wind at Kunlun Pass carried a lingering, burnt smell that stung one's face.

Although the enormous mushroom cloud has dissipated, the absolute shock from the physical level still lingers in the cells of every living organism.

Gone.

It's all gone.

The Greek old man who wielded thunder in a dazzling display, the birdman who drove his sun boat around recklessly, and even the one-eyed Odin who constantly talked about glory—all of them have become fleeting memories.

The "divine chains" that originally connected thousands of mythical creatures were completely severed in that instant.

Without its master, the dog naturally loses the confidence to bark.

An eerily quiet atmosphere prevailed on the battlefield.

The monsters, who were baring their teeth and ready to tear the defenses apart just a moment ago, now seemed to have lost their backbone. Several enormous cyclops were still holding large wooden clubs, their only weapons, but now they didn't know whether to hold them up or put them down; their huge eyes were filled with confusion and fear.

They could sense that the terrifying "little sun" could burn their god to ashes, and naturally it could also roast their thousands of kilograms of flesh into charcoal.

"Commander... Shall we fight?"

In the trench, the battalion commander wiped the soot off his face, the bolt of his rifle clicking as he pointed it at the centaurs less than fifty meters away.

Huang Lei spat out the sand in his mouth, his brows furrowing into a knot.

This battle has long since exceeded his comprehension. If the other side continues to charge, then without hesitation, he will not even need guns; he will use bayonets to stab them back.

But those bastards aren't doing it anymore.

They are trembling.

Especially Cerberus, whose three heads, which were originally fierce and menacing, are now all lying on the ground, tucked between its legs, whimpering, looking like someone's lost husky.

"Request instructions from headquarters." Huang Lei said helplessly, "Ask the commander whether these beasts should be braised or steamed. Just one word and I'll immediately take my men up there and skin them alive."

……

Soon, the command center received the message.

"Commander, Comrade Su Yun, Regiment Commander Huang Lei at the front is requesting instructions on whether to conduct fire coverage to completely eliminate the remaining threat?" Qin Shuangyue asked.

After all, those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts. This is a lesson left by our ancestors.

Su Yun didn't speak, but just stared at the data on the screen.

He suddenly realized.

Cyclops, averaging 15 meters tall, possesses strength twenty times that of an excavator and has exceptional endurance; aside from eating a lot, they are flawless.

Centaurs move at speeds comparable to sports cars and are extremely adaptable to different terrains, traversing mountains and swamps with ease.

And then there are the chimeras, griffins...

"Clearing it up would be too wasteful." So Su Yun shook his head. "Elder Long, as you know, our country has just undergone a major upheaval, and many places need to be rebuilt. Building roads costs money, building bridges costs money, and even clearing the ruins of this battlefield will consume a lot of manpower and resources."

Long Yi was taken aback: "This...that's true. But what does this have to do with these monsters?"

"How can it be okay?" Su Yun pointed at a trembling Cyclops on the screen. "Look at this behemoth, all muscle. Is that meat? No, that's productivity."

"A single heavy construction machine costs millions, requires fuel and maintenance, and only lasts for twenty years. This thing, on the other hand, can work as long as you feed it, it can repair itself when it breaks down, it's powerful and doesn't pick and choose jobs. One of them can do the work of a thousand."

"Simply killing is the lowest form of treatment."

"We not only want to win, but also to win tangible benefits and long-term success."

Su Yun smiled and gently tapped a skill icon with his finger.

This is a green passive icon called "Auspicious Beasts Bring Good Fortune".

[Host's will detected: Reject ineffective killing, seek post-war reconstruction resources, and convert excess mythical combat power...]

[The skill "Auspicious Beast Brings Good Fortune" is being activated...]

[Judging in progress... The talent "Territory is Territory" has intervened.]

[Verification passed. Current coverage area: the entire territory of Longxia.]

[Target group detected: Western mythological creatures that have lost the protection of their gods (Cyclops, Centaurs, Chimeras, etc.)].

[Detected that the original skill effect "Pacify and Bless" can no longer satisfy the host's need to "exploit labor"... The concept is being redesigned...]

[Currently linking with the Labor Law...integrating the spirit of the "Great Production Movement"...extracting the practical spirit of historical figures like "The Foolish Old Man Who Moved Mountains" and "Jingwei Filling the Sea"...]

[Laws and Ordinances - Labor Service for All Souls - Labor is Glorious]

[Description: Under heaven, all land belongs to the king; on the shores of the land, all people are his subjects. Once one enters the land of China, there are no idle gods. The monsters of the West are mostly lazy, cruel, and tyrannical; the ruler of the East should use civilization to discipline them, to teach them about farming and labor, so that they may atone for their sins.]

[Effect 1: Mind Imprint - Labor is the Most Glorious. All mythical creatures deemed "prisoners of war/illegal immigrants" will have their negative emotions such as "tyranny" and "bloodlust" forcibly erased and will be implanted with a high-priority "desire for construction." The target will experience an extreme sense of pleasure, similar to a divine infusion, upon completing tasks such as moving bricks, transporting goods, and providing heating.]

[Effect Two: Form Adaptation - Creation by Nature. Based on the target's physiological structure, forcibly materialize work safety equipment conforming to the Longxia national standard. (For example: Cyclops automatically acquires an [XL-type explosion-proof safety helmet] and a [100-ton-class entrenching tool]; Centaur automatically equips itself with a [SF Express high-load-bearing vest].)]

[Effect 3: Perpetual Motion Mechanism. The target's physical/spiritual energy recovery rate is linked to their workload. The more they work, the more energetic they become; once they stop working, they immediately fall into a state of extreme weakness and anxiety.]

[Current mana cost: 200; Maintenance cost: 0 (Due to the "Infrastructure Maniac" trait, mana consumption is compensated by the monster's own fat and divine power).]

[Note: In this country, mythical beasts aren't kept in temples; they're used for grinding grain. Don't work? If you don't work, you won't even get to eat shit!]
