"Energy is not lacking, you idiot! You took it all away.
I was counting on upgrading Genetic Mech through this world destruction mission.
Stop using Permanent Clone Technique as an excuse. How much energy do I really need to use Permanent Clone Technique?" Rek shouted angrily at the War God System in his mind.
"Initially, it is estimated that ten thousand units of this crystal will be enough! Young man! Keep up the good work and find more energy for the System," the calm voice of the War God System replied to Rek.
"Ten thousand units? Are you out of your mind? I worked my ass off just to get three units, and you casually say ten thousand.
Ten thousand units would be enough for my Genetic Mech to level up five or six times!
The Permanent Clone Technique skill you gave me before was a trap, wasn't it?
You just wanted me to help you find energy by specifically choosing that! If you don't explain this clearly today, don't even think about me finding you a single unit of energy." Upon hearing ten thousand units, Rek's head exploded, and the accumulated anger over time erupted.
"Permanent Clone Technique was obtained by the Host through a lottery wheel. However, the Host previously used Genetic Mech to devour low-level energy from Mutant Beasts, which upgraded the Genetic Mech.
Correspondingly, if you want to use Permanent Clone Technique, the created clone will also carry its own Genetic Mech, and its strength will upgrade as well. Therefore, it consumes even more energy.
The authority of the War God System cannot be questioned, even by the Host. Considering this is the first offense of the Host, a mild Punishment will be given—struck by lightning.
Warm reminder: A certain degree of electrotherapy helps with the growth of cellular tissue within the Host, which is beneficial for enhancing the Host's potential. No need to thank the System, consider it a reward for your first proactive search for energy crystals." The cold voice of the War God System echoed in Rek's mind.
Then, Rek saw a thick bolt of lightning suddenly appear above his head.
It was too late for Rek to dodge; he quickly raised both hands.
"Ah!" The lightning struck his hands and coursed through his entire body. Even with the protection of Genetic Mech, under the lightning strike, Rek felt intense pain throughout his body.
Rek's hair stood up inside the Genetic Mech armor, and then all of it was burned away.
"You---" The charred Rek lost consciousness.
"Why is it so bright over there!"
"I think I saw Rek get struck by lightning!"
"What kind of bad things has Captain Rek done to get struck by lightning even in an underground warehouse!"
"Don't talk nonsense, it must have been an electric shock!"
"Hurry and check, maybe he's not dead yet!"

The next afternoon, two Hover Tanks manufactured by the Glorious Empire emerged from Ruined City.
Each Hover Tank was towing a small trailer with a tattered Star Alliance Flag attached.
All the weapons from the Hover Car had been temporarily dismantled and placed on one of the trailers. On another trailer lay a stretcher, and on it was Rek.
"Yes, you all hang the military flags found on the Star Alliance Military Uniform higher.
Dismantle all the weapons and drive out slowly.
Right now, our Star Alliance team has surrounded Ruined City from ten kilometers away. Don't let them mistake you for an armed vehicle of the Glorious Empire," Rek instructed the temporary team members while lying on the stretcher.
Last night's War God System lightning strike Punishment, although it didn't take his life, left him feeling temporarily weak and without strength. Even with the help of the symbiotic Genetic Mech, it would take him two or three days to be able to walk again.

When two Hover Tanks returned to the Star Alliance Special Forces' Temporary Base, the base commander was stunned to see a Glorious Empire Hover Tank with the Star Alliance Flag planted on it, unloading its weapons.
At first, he thought that those Glorious Empire soldiers in the Ruined City had come to their senses and surrendered.
That shouldn't be the case! After so many years of war between the two nations, they were well aware of the treatment of captives. Those who surrendered had never met a good end.
When the Special Operations Commander recognized the few individuals in the tank, who were actually new recruits sent into the city for trials just ten days ago, everyone in the Special Forces, from veterans to commanders, was left dumbfounded.
"We initially planned to send them to their deaths, hoping to gather some intelligence!
God, what kind of new recruits did the military academy send this time? They are so brave! With less than a hundred new recruits, they managed to bring back two advanced Hover Tanks!" the Special Forces commander thought oddly.

In the following month, Rek rapidly rose through the ranks from a new squad leader in the Special Forces due to his continuous achievements in battle. Rek's Genetic Mech also upgraded and evolved through numerous life-and-death battles against the Glorious Empire and mutated creatures.
A month later, Rek was regarded as a typical hero on the battlefield by the Star Alliance Federation for propaganda purposes.
After all, with the war dragging on for so long, Star Alliance desperately needed new heroes to boost soldier morale. Rek's background and numerous accomplishments fit perfectly.
Rek was now in charge of fifty Special Forces personnel.
In just one month, Rek's Genetic Mech had evolved from its initial level through Private Level and Corporal Level.
Jumping three levels in just over a month is considered fast; normally, it would take one or two years for an initial-level Genetic Mech to evolve to Corporal Level in regular troops.
If it weren't for the War God System constantly siphoning off some high-level energy that could be absorbed, Rek's Genetic Mech would have definitely leveled up several more times.
Now, Rek, a small flag on the Star Alliance battlefield, was suddenly called to the Special Forces command center today. The commander ordered him not to participate in combat anymore and assigned him back to the Star Alliance Military headquarters.
"Head to the Star Alliance Military headquarters!" the Special Operations Commander said to Rek.
"Why am I not allowed to fight anymore?" Rek asked, somewhat confused.
Rek had been fighting fiercely and risking his life to upgrade his Genetic Mech, hoping to find a relatively safe place to survive under the impending threat of the Doomsday Weapon, relying on the protection of the Genetic Mech.
Now, Rek's mission time had already passed a month and a half, and in just over ten days, this world would face an attack from the Ultimate Weapon.
Rek planned to level up in another eight or nine days and then hide in an Underground Bunker that he had discovered with his team half a month ago to take refuge.
In recent days, Rek had secretly transported some food and water into the Underground Shelter.
If the Underground Shelter was not directly targeted by the doomsday weapon's concentrated fire, Rek thought he might have a chance to survive.
The food inside could barely last him a month if he rationed it.
Although there was an element of risking his life involved, who knew how powerful the attacks from the Glorious Empire and the Star Alliance Federation would be when the Doomsday Weapon was unleashed, and where the main targets would be?
"Could it be that my plan to escape to the Underground Shelter was discovered by the commander? That shouldn't be possible!" Rek wondered.
