Zhou Huai carefully looked at the Night Stalker's attribute panel, a look of satisfaction appearing on his face.

As expected of an SS-Rank.

Starting off with three skills, and every single one of them is formidable.

The passive skill [ Night Fiend Descent ] is simply a divine skill tailor-made for the dark night.

Once night falls, he is the absolute Dominator.

[ Shadow Stealth ] is a perfect stealth and recovery skill, with top-tier self-preservation capabilities.

Furthermore, the maximum HP percentage damage attached to [ Shadow Demon Claw ] is an unsurpassed Sharp Weapon against BOSSes and tank classes.

If Gandalf is a mobile war artillery, then this Night Stalker is the most ruthless and invincible killing god under the cover of night.

[ System Prompt: Please name your SS-Rank Clone. ]

Zhou Huai thought for a brief moment.

A certain figure from an anime in his past life surfaced in his mind.

Moonlight Moria.

There wasn't too much complex reason, he simply liked that character's setting.

[ System Prompt: Naming successful! Clone "Moria" created. ]

[ System Prompt: Please perform appearance shaping for Clone "Moria". ]

Naturally, Zhou Huai wouldn't actually use that bloated and bizarre styling from the anime.

That was too ugly.

It completely didn't match his aesthetic.

Moria in his imagination should be like a vampire count from ancient legends.

With a slender figure, pale and handsome facial features.

Dressed in a well-tailored black tailcoat, with a dark red bowtie tied at the collar.

A head of silver-white long hair draped casually, eyes deep, as if containing endless solitude and melancholy.

Dignified, noble, yet carrying a trace of evil charm.

At a glance, he was obviously born from some fallen ancient nobility.

[ System Prompt: Appearance shaping for Clone "Moria" successful! ]

[ System Prompt: Clone generation in progress, please wait… ]

Generating a Clone usually takes one to two hours.

Zhou Huai didn't wait around idly.

With a thought, he immersed his consciousness into the bodies of Yasuo and Xiang Yu respectively.

Nowadays, Yasuo's Rank had reached Rank 23.

Not only were various attributes greatly improved, but he also comprehended the level 20 ultimate skill.

[ Ultimate Skill: World-Extinguishing Thunder (LV1) ]

[ Effect: Uses his own long sword to guide the lightning power from above the Nine Heavens, launching a destructive impact on the designated target, dealing massive lightning damage. Mana Consumption: 500, Cooldown: Five minutes. ]

After reading the skill introduction, the corners of Zhou Huai's mouth slightly rose.

Isn't this skill the signature technique of a certain second-in-command?

The power surely wouldn't disappoint.

He switched perspectives again to check Xiang Yu's attributes.

[ Name: Xiang Yu ]

[ Class: Unique Hidden Class, S-Rank Nirvana Barrier ]

[ Rank: LV15 (25811 / 20000) ]

[ HP: 15271 / 15271 ]

[ Mana: 1050 / 1050 ]

[ Strength: 336 ]

[ Agility: 227 ]

[ Vitality: 656 ]

[ Spirit: 218 ]

[ Attack Power: 498 ]

[ Physical Defense: 1201 ]

[ Magic Resistance: 1305 ]

Merely at level fifteen, the HP had already broken through the milestone of fifteen thousand.

This health pool was a full three times higher than Yasuo's.

Physical defense and magic resistance both broke a thousand.

Simply a mobile iron fortress.

Besides this, Xiang Yu also comprehended three brand new skills.

[ Active Skill: Overlord Taunt (LV1) – Lets out a roar, forcing all enemy units within a ten-meter radius to attack himself, lasting for 5 seconds. Consumes 50 Mana, Cooldown 30 seconds. ]

[ Active Skill: Reverse Scale Armor (LV1) – After activating, any damage received subsequently will be reflected back to the attacker in double form, lasting for 10 seconds. Consumes 200 Mana. Cooldown 50 seconds. ]

[ Active Skill: Demon God Descent (LV1) – Body size instantly increases by 5 times, physical defense and magic resistance are increased by 200%, and maximum HP is increased by 3 times. Basic attacks come with additional damage equal to 10% of one's own maximum HP. ]

Tanky yet capable of outputting damage, control, damage reflection, and burst are all complete.

Looking at this Clone, there is a sense of overflowing security.

…

On the highway in the suburbs of Donghai City.

A black off-road vehicle with a rugged and domineering shape was kicking up a cloud of dust and speeding along.

This was the Land Cruiser off-road vehicle specially purchased by Zhou Huai using Ou Yezi's funds.

It is said that the car body uses a special alloy material, which is not only extremely fast, but can also easily withstand the impact of low-tier alien beasts.

Such a car cost him over fifty thousand Daxia Coins.

Today's Ou Yezi has undoubtedly become the big tycoon among all of Zhou Huai's Clones.

Every day he stays behind closed doors, frantically forging equipment inside the top-tier forging room of the Forging Guild.

The equipment produced has a minimum quality of rare-grade, and epic-grade equipment appears from time to time.

Every single piece can fetch an astronomical price in the market.

In just a few short days, the wealth he earned for Zhou Huai was already an astronomical figure.

Many guilds and forces tried every possible means to poach him, offering conditions more enticing than the last.

Yet Ou Yezi remained entirely unmoved, solely staying in the Forging Guild.

Regarding this, President Gu Yan's attitude grew increasingly satisfied; not only did he raise Ou Yezi's share of the auction proceeds time and again, but he also promised that all Materials in the guild could be used by Ou Yezi for free.

However, as Ou Yezi's Rank grew higher and higher, the grade of equipment he could forge also rose accordingly.

The Materials in the guild warehouse gradually began to fail to meet his requirements.

Materials below level twenty were easy to talk about.

But Advanced Materials above level twenty were always in short supply.

Although Supervisor Shen Qiu repeatedly stated that missing Materials could be purchased at high prices from the trading center,

this would undoubtedly greatly increase the cost and time of forging equipment.

Coincidentally, both Yasuo and Xiang Yu needed to grind Ranks in the wild.

Zhou Huai then handed over the task of collecting Materials to them.

Under the precise control of the smart core ai, the two Clones didn't rest for a moment, running back and forth between the wild and the city.

At this moment, they had just completed a round of Material collection and were on their way back to Donghai City.

Yasuo sat in the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel with one hand, his expression focused.

Xiang Yu sat in the passenger seat, resting his eyes with a calm mind, silent as a mountain.

"Roar——!"

Just at this moment, several huge mutated wild boars suddenly rushed out from the woods beside the highway.

Their eyes were crimson, tusks flared outward, roaring as they charged fiercely towards the off-road vehicle.

Yasuo didn't even lift an eyelid.

His hand holding the steering wheel remained motionless, while his other hand rested casually on the car window.

"Whoosh!"

A solid strand of Sword Qi shot out from his fingertips, as fast as lightning.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

The Sword Qi accurately penetrated the heads of those mutated wild boars.

Their forward momentum came to an abrupt halt, their massive bodies crashing heavily to the ground, twitching a few times before falling completely silent.

From beginning to end, Xiang Yu didn't even open his eyes.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Huai couldn't help but smile knowingly.

His own Clones were truly getting more and more handsome.

Relying solely on his own Clones to collect Materials was ultimately not a long-term solution.

Now was also the time to create his own guild.

(PS: Thank you to all the reader lords for your opinions, they are all varied and I couldn't choose through them all. In the end, I chose a name that fits the Night Stalker quite well, Moria. There will be many more Clone namings in the future, I hope everyone participates actively! Thanks again!)
