Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

Kael was somewhat surprised by the active surrender of the Moon Howling Lion Group, these lions covered in golden fur with thick pelts had always been a favorite amongst players in his previous life, considered to have the best cost performance as an arcane pet.

Of course, constrained by their own occupational traits and the gap in magic power accumulation, the vast majority of summoners, druids, and other professions besides mages found it very difficult to afford arcane pets of such a size.

These lions had strong and powerful limbs, naturally weaker in long-range sprinting compared to those horse-type creatures with different bloodlines, but given their own challenge level, low-level demons like the Huge Hoofed Deer were barely enough to entertain them.

Such arcane pets undeniably held an irresistible allure for players who always appreciated the aesthetics of violence, especially because the claws of these lions appeared robust and resilient, slashing towards people like several daggers when swung, depicted as very intimidating.

Indeed, standing in front of this group of lions, Kael appeared as if he had shrunk in size, with the sharpness that was hidden within his body now seeming like the "mantis blocking the chariot" from the old story, like that pitiful mantis.

But only the Moon Howling Lion King standing in front of Kael was so keenly aware of the gap between them.

Although there was much lacking compared to the Totem at its peak, the threat that stood before it now was already drawing close to the severely wounded former totem, and this in itself spoke volumes.

To think that even this old-timer in the lion group, referred to as the 'undying one', didn't know how strong the Totem at its peak really was, having only heard from the previous Moon Howling Lion King about the glory days of the totems.

In its opinion, this was already the limit of what it could fathom.

But anyhow, the current Lord of the Lancaster Territory was stronger than it had imagined.

So, the Lion King shook its head, feeling the distinctly clear Totem Power emanating from Kael, and scraped the ground nervously with its right foot.

"Lord Kael, is it alright for us to call you that?" the Lion King said cautiously.

With its hind limbs supporting its body, the Lion King made a somewhat ingratiating gesture by rubbing its front paws, delicately trying to say:

"Seeing that you have such a strong team, it seems that even if those fragmented small groups attempt to charge at 'the gate', they won't pose any problem in the future."

Kael frowned and said, "Small groups? Are you referring to those groups that, like yours, also possess the ability to think?"

The Lion King nodded and said, "Yes, recently they have heard that the number of Shadow Wolves dying is increasing, so it has caused panic among those smaller numbered groups.

They have quietly united recently, trying to take advantage of the situation to secretly charge at 'the gate' and break through into your territory, Lord Kael." Stay tuned with My Virtual Library Empire

The tone of the Lion King was very grave.

It wasn't that it thought these ragtag bunches could bring any significant loss to the Humans, but it was merely worried that because of this, the already surrendered environment in which it lived would become even more perilous.

The joys and sorrows among different creatures do not necessarily align; the Lion King simply felt they were annoying.

"Isn't it good being alive?" Kael truly didn't see how those creatures of the Twisted Jungle were capable of causing the Rangers any losses.

If they really organized, the Rangers guarding the lower realm's gate would actually welcome it, as they felt quite dejected upon learning that Kael intended to recruit the monsters from the gate.

It had already been discovered that the Symbiotic Armor formed by Gluttonous Slime was perfectly suited for Cursed Swordsmen and warriors.

The issue with the Cursed Swordsman lay in their comparatively frail bodies compared to other warrior professions, embodying a case of maxed-out attack yet insufficient defense.

Unless one chooses the branch of Lancer under the Cursed Swordsman, enduring a more special and challenging trial to compensate for their bodily shortcomings, transforming their bodies to the degree of those top-tier warriors was extremely difficult.

But now, with the existence of Symbiotic Armor, Cursed Swordsmen could leverage the Gluttonous Slime's racial talent to absorb Beast Blood Essence, greatly accelerating the process far beyond just a mere improvement.

Even more so because the Gluttonous Slime's body also contained Artificial Circuits, and with the high-speed flow of magic power, it was tantamount to equipping the Cursed Swordsman with an excess of monster specialties.

It can be said that in battle against monsters, so long as the Rangers don't die and Kael's Spiritual Power continuously supports "Gluttonous Feast", it could substantially sustain their endurance, potentially creating a top-tier legion.

Of course, that was a matter for later.

What Kael was focusing on now was what exactly did these Dungeon creatures intend to do, he didn't recall having sought absolute extermination of those beings before, so why such a drastic reaction?

He looked with an almost smiling expression towards the Lion King who showed a simple and honest smile and said, "How did you come to know of this piece of news? Surely those creatures didn't run over to tell you!"

Laughing heartily, the Lion King said, "It's true, they did. As you likely know, not many monsters in the Twisted Jungle have gained the capability to think, but the majority of those who did are among us Moon Howling Lions and Shadow Wolves.

Apart from us, the other species, including the Huge Hoofed Deer which are numerous enough to fill our bellies, only have a very small number who can think and speak normally."
