The Land of Holy Light, a once bountiful continent regarded as the "Promised Land" by the three major races, has now been completely reduced to a hunting ground for the demon army.

Lilith, the First Demon General, perfectly carried out Lin Feng's will.

Her revenge was no longer simply about venting millennia of resentment, but had evolved into an efficient, ruthless, and war-driven resource plunder.

After completely destroying all organized resistance from the old three major race alliances, the demon army broke up into numerous "cleanup teams" led by high-ranking demon generals, and began a thorough sweep of the continent.

Their goal is no longer simply killing, but "the effective conversion of resources".

A dwarven mountain fortress, after a three-month siege, was finally breached.

Amidst deafening battle cries, the powerful Deinonychus smashed open the final, despairing door forged from rune steel.

They were met by thousands of dwarven warriors with bloodshot eyes, wielding battle axes and warhammers, shouting "For the King of the Hill!"

However, their courage was meaningless in the face of an absolute disparity in numbers and strength.

The abyssal behemoth strode with the strides of a mountain, crushing the dwarves' proud shield wall into a bloody pulp with its body.

The gargoyle army dropped countless alchemical bombs filled with corrosive acid from the ventilation shafts above the fortress.

Screams and wails echoed throughout the underground city.

The battle lasted less than an hour before it was over.

All the dwarf men who took up arms in resistance, regardless of age, were killed.

Their corpses were piled up in the city's central square, becoming a feast for the monsters.

Those who laid down their weapons and chose to surrender were branded with the humiliating mark of "slave" on their faces by the demon overseers using red-hot irons.

Their Achilles tendons were severed, then they were chained together with thick iron chains and escorted to the newly discovered rich mineral veins.

They will dedicate the rest of their lives to providing a continuous supply of ore for the empire's war machine.

All the dwarf women in the city were gathered together.

Among them were elderly elders with white hair and beards, and female warriors with hot figures who had just come of age.

They were gently "invited" by the troops into clean temporary tents.

What awaited them was not death, but a deeper, unknown fear.

They were the empire's "spoils of war," "rewards" to be transported back to the empire and bestowed upon meritorious officials.

The same scene plays out repeatedly on every inch of the land of holy light.

The elves' last home, the Windwhisperer's Forest, was burned down by hundreds of millions of monsters.

Those once elegant elves, living in harmony with nature, were either burned alive in the towering flames or forced to rush out of the forest, only to be easily captured by the demon army that had been waiting there.

Human kingdoms are falling one after another.

The magnificent capital was razed to the ground.

The noble king was beheaded and his head was hung on the city wall.

The fertile land has been corrupted by magical energy.

The entire Holy Land was transformed into a blood-red, wailing hell on earth.

The most succulent "fruits" of this inferno—young, healthy, and beautiful female prisoners—were continuously sent aboard transport ships.

While the native inhabitants of the Land of Holy Light were experiencing a bloody catastrophe leading to the destruction of their nation and the extinction of their race, the Holy Star Empire ushered in an unprecedented wave of outward colonization.

Still struggling for a tiny apartment in a third-tier city?

Are you still bowing and scraping to your boss for that meager monthly salary?

"Are you still jealous of those military nobles who can have their own elven female slaves?"

"Now! An opportunity to change your destiny has arrived!"

On the Empire's holographic network, a promotional video titled "Imperial Pioneer Recruitment Order," personally released by the State Council, is spreading like wildfire.

The promotional video is highly provocative.

On one side, there is the crowded, fast-paced, and stressful life in the imperial city.

On the other side lies the vast, fertile, and beautiful land of the Holy Light.

There are endless, picturesque golden wheat fields.

There are clear rivers flowing with sweet spring water.

There are treehouses in the forest, built by elves, as elegant as works of art.

There are sturdy stone fortresses built by dwarves, which are warm in winter and cool in summer.

And now, all of this will belong to the pioneers of the empire!

No proof of assets required! No educational requirements!

"As long as you are a glorious yellow-skinned human being with first-class citizenship of the Empire!"

"You are qualified to apply to become one of the first Imperial Pioneers!"

"You will receive at least one hundred acres of permanent private land in the Land of Holy Light, free of charge!"

"You will receive a beautiful house built by elves or dwarves for free!"

"Most importantly!"

At the end of the promotional video, the image freezes on a burly imperial man sitting in front of a luxurious manor, with several voluptuous dwarf maids and several stunningly beautiful elven maids kneeling at his feet, massaging his legs and peeling fruit for him.

"According to the supplementary clauses of the Imperial Merit Reward Regulations, all Imperial citizens who voluntarily go to the Holy Light Land for exploration will automatically receive corresponding 'Exploration Merit' based on the difficulty and area of ​​the exploration!"

"These merits are enough to legally grant you at least one alien female slave of your own on the very first day you arrive in the New World!"

This promotional video, like a supernova that exploded, instantly ignited the desires and ambitions of all male citizens at the bottom of the empire.

Most of them had neither the opportunity nor the courage to join the army and go to the front lines to risk their lives for meritorious service.

They are the most ordinary cogs in this fanatical empire.

They do the most basic jobs in factories, on farms, and in every corner of the city.

They, too, yearn for power.

They also longed to have their own female slaves.

And now, the opportunity has arrived.

More than 80 percent of the lower-class male citizens of the Empire have submitted applications to become pioneers.

After a rapid screening process by the AI ​​"Pangu," the first batch of "Imperial Pioneers," totaling as many as 50 million, was born.

They will travel aboard the empire's giant colony ships to that "new world" flowing with milk and honey, to become the new "masters" of that land.

Wang Lei, an ordinary citizen of the empire.

Before the "Great Expedition" era, he was just an ordinary worker in a parts processing factory in Chengtian City.

His life was predictable from beginning to end.

Every day, I repeat the same monotonous routine of going between three points.

They lived in a 100-square-meter low-rent apartment allocated by the empire.

Although he has no worries about food and drink, he just doesn't have a wife.

He also longed for love.

However, women in the empire have very high standards.

They prefer to marry promising military officers or high-earning researchers.

Low-level workers like Wang Lei are simply not good enough for them.

He is thirty-five years old this year and is still single.

He thought that this was all there was to his life.

Until the appearance of the "Imperial Pioneer Recruitment Order".

Wang Lei submitted his application without hesitation.

He was lucky enough to be chosen.

When he sailed through the dazzling galaxy aboard his massive colony ship and saw the lush, green continent of the Land of Holy Light for the first time, he wept.

He knew that his life would be completely changed from this moment on.

According to the assignments made by the AI ​​on the colony ship, Wang Lei was assigned to the edge of the former elven kingdom, the "Wind Whisperer Forest".

This place was once a bustling elven town, but now it is in ruins. However, most of the exquisite treehouses built on ancient trees are still intact.

Wang Lei was assigned the largest and most luxurious treehouse.

This treehouse is three stories high, and all the furniture inside is made of fairy wood that exudes a faint fragrance.

Open the window and you'll see a lake with shimmering blue waters.

The air was filled with the refreshing fragrance of flowers and plants.

This was a mansion he never dared to dream of.

In addition to the mansion, he was also allocated two hundred acres of fertile land and two slaves included in the "Pioneer" gift package.

One was a robust dwarf male slave. He used to be the city's blacksmith, and now his job was to cultivate the two hundred acres of land for Wang Lei and do all the physical labor.

The other is a young, beautiful elf girl with long golden hair.

She is the daughter of the town's former mayor.

Her name is Ella.

Of course, she no longer has a name.

Her code name was "Slave 0073".

She wore a shimmering metal choker around her neck.

Her ownership belongs to Wang Lei.

When Wang Lei first met Ella, he felt like he was suffocating.

He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his entire life.

Her skin was whiter than the finest milk.

Her eyes were like two of the purest sapphires.

She was slender and tall, exuding an ethereal and elegant charm.

Wang Lei looked at her, his eyes filled with undisguised greed and possessiveness.

Ella looked at Wang Lei with eyes filled with deep hatred and profound despair.

Her father and her people all died under the demons' swords.

And she will have to serve these invaders who are more greedy than the devil.

That evening, Wang Lei drank a lot of the fairy fruit wine he had scavenged from the treehouse wine cellar.

He stumbled into Ella's room, drunk.

Ella, dressed in a thin white prison uniform, huddled in a corner, shivering.

"Come here," Wang Lei said in a commanding tone.

Ella didn't move.

She simply stared intently at Wang Lei with her beautiful blue eyes.

"I told you to come here!"

Wang Lei was somewhat annoyed.

He grabbed Ella's hair and roughly dragged her up from the ground.

"You are mine! Your body, everything about you, is mine!"

Ella let out a desperate cry.

She resisted and struggled.

However, her strength seemed so insignificant in front of the burly Wang Lei.

The next day, Wang Lei woke up feeling refreshed.

Looking at the beautiful body beside him, he felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and conquest.

He was no longer that lowly loser who was bossed around in the factory.

He is the master!

They are the masters of this land!

She is the mistress of this beautiful elven woman!

From that day on, Wang Lei began living the "happy" life he had always dreamed of.

He doesn't have to do anything all day; he can simply lie on a comfortable lounge chair, drink fine wine, and enjoy the scenery of the lake and mountains.

The dwarf slaves would cultivate the land, harvest the grain, and brew the wine for him.

Ella, on the other hand, became his personal tool and maid.

There are fifty million "pioneers" like Wang Lei in the entire Holy Land.

They are all enjoying this "happy" life built on the blood and tears of another civilization.

They turned this place into their paradise, but also into a hell for the indigenous people.
