Shortly thereafter, the door opened once more, and two weary soldiers entered.

These soldiers had various degrees of injuries of varying severity, such as broken arms and severe burns, inflicted during the fight with the Half-Drow Fire Mages.

Despite their wounds, their expressions remained dull, showing no sign of despair even after confronting the large numbers of Half-Drows.

These are the injured mechanical soldiers that got out from the void space using the return card they got after killing Half-Drow Fire Mages.

They snapped into a salute as soon as they saw Selina. "Commander!"

Selina didn't even acknowledge the salute. She stepped forward, her eyes locked onto the two soldiers with a piercing intensity.

"Speak," she commanded, her voice cold and authoritative. "What happened in the Void Space?"

One of the soldiers, a man with a bandaged arm, took a breath before responding. "We... we made a discovery, Commander. Deep inside, there's more than just cavemen tribes."

"There's a massive army—thousands of them—Half-Drow elites. We don't know where they came from, but they have eliminated most of the original monsters that spawned in the void space and the entire Void Space is turned into an Elite Barracks."

The room fell into a stunned silence. Even the captain standing behind Selina felt a shiver crawl up his spine.

"Half-Drow elites?" Selina repeated, her tone low but dangerous. "How many?"

The soldier swallowed hard. "At least a thousand, maybe more. They're stationed inside the third layer, according to the footage Cave Crawlers sent us before they were destroyed, the Half Drows seemed to be preparing to attack us on a large scale, so we were sent out to get further instructions."

The soldier proceeded to detail the events that unfolded after they entered the void space, using a holographic display to show various videos.

They expressed their surprise at discovering a large population of cavemen. The narrative continued with an account of their attack on the caveman tribes, which was met with resistance from a large number of Half Drows.

Then the video feeds showed a vast underground space and thousands of Half Drows gathering towards a stone palace, information gathered by hundreds of small mechanical insectoid drones, known as cave crawlers, which they had deployed to dig underground.

"Hehe ha-ha," Selina's mind raced, processing the new information.

A crazy smile appeared on her beautiful face, as she licked her lips, delighted in finding a new toy to alleviate her boredom.

"A thousand Tier-3 Half-Drow... that was comparable to an elite army, led by someone. Hehe..."

Selina's gaze hardened as she looked at the remains, though her expression was unreadable.

The captain and the soldiers stood to the side, utterly confused, but unwilling to speak up.

Without saying a word, Selina raised her hand and bit down hard on her finger.

The soldiers watched in shock as she let a few drops of her own blood drip onto the corpse.

It wasn't long before the wound on her finger healed completely as if it had never been there, but the damage was done.

The drops of blood had already fallen.

The moment her blood touched the corpse, something unusual began to happen. The drops started to vibrate, slowly at first but with increasing intensity.

The soldiers had no idea what was going on, but the captain, with his Tier 4 strength and heightened senses, expanded his consciousness to inspect the situation.

What he saw sent a shiver down his spine.

The nanites inside Selina's blood, tens of thousands of them, had suddenly become active.

They moved with a purpose, devouring the dead flesh and beginning to multiply at a rapid pace.

Each passing second saw more and more nanites being created as they consumed the corpse, breaking it down at an alarming speed.

The soldiers watched, wide-eyed, as the tiny droplets of blood seemed to grow, expanding in volume, devouring the entire body bit by bit.

Soon, the once massive body of the mechanical soldier began to shrink, its features melting away.

The nanoids—tiny, advanced machines within her blood—spread like wildfire, rapidly multiplying and consuming the decayed flesh and metal.

Selina watched with a calm intensity as her blood drops pulsed with an eerie energy, spreading over the dead soldier's charred remains.

The body, now completely covered by Selina's nanites, transformed right before their eyes.
