Chapter 366 Siege 5

Looking at the wretched state of the east and west gates of the castle, it was clear the two could not be saved anymore. With the elven magus leaving centered on the main gate facing south, the high elves were increasingly unable to maintain their position. Wolves continued to arrive from all directions in large numbers, while those who were still able to fight were only numbered in  mere pitiful 28.

Because there were no more people defending the gate as such a task was simply not possible, eventually, the gate was broken by the relentless assault of the wolves who immediately scrambled to enter the castle's wide courtyard. In that courtyard, the dark elf princess, Illiana, the high elven elders, as well as the remaining high elves were already preparing to exert and unleash all their strength in order to prevent the wolves from entering the castle.

BANG!

BAMM!

The war between races continued in full throttle. Night wolves, dark wolves of various sizes, were still as brutal as when they initially appeared, bringing destruction and wreaking havoc in the castle area.

With the Titan wolf leading them in, the wolves seemed to have become even more destructive and savage than before, going and doing whatever they wanted daringly. It was as if they firmly believed that victory was in their hands ever since the Titan wolf had joined the battle.

Meanwhile, in the southern part of the castle, at the main gate, the Titan wolf, who was an intimidating opponent to face, didn't seem to be unstoppable as it initially looked.

The left ear of the huge wolf seemed to have been torn at the end by something, leaving red blood scab that had dried and made its black fur clump in one place. In addition, there was a long scar line above his left eye, running down to the tip of its snout, causing the Titan wolf to continuously drip its thick saliva from the gap of the remaining wound.

The existence of scars that still clearly remained on the Titan wolf's body proved that the creature wasn't impossible to face against and that there is a certain power that could be used effectively to defeat the Titan wolf, or at least, managed to injure him.

A certain power capable of causing the wounds it created could not be completely healed even with the incredible regeneration ability of the Titan wolf. However, the group of elven magus who were standing in front of him didn't know, nor have an idea of what kind of power could make the Titan wolf completely unable to heal itself.

The Titans wolf moved its neck until it emitted crisp painful-sounding sounds from the bones around its neck after the dark elven king, Vizier, kicked it with the enchantment magic skill [Burning Speed] whose power could knock down the stone walls of the castle in one hit.

However, unfortunately, the attack didn't manage to deal an injury fatal enough to the Titan wolf whose strength could not be measured by Tristan's scanner system.

ROAR!

GROWL!

The dark wolves and night wolves from the south continued to jump and lunge at anything or anyone who tried to get in their way. All of them tried their best to break into the castle grounds and leave the leader, the Titan wolf, to take on the magus level elves.

"Don't let it pass! Defend the main gate!" Callan shouted an order while he drew and prepared his sword for the battle against the Titan wolf.

In the midst of this chaos, Tristan could be seen standing still. This was because he knew what to do to stop the endless thousands of wolves. He decided to initiate and unleash his special skill.

This time, the skill he wanted to use would need a massive amount of blood essence at once in order to be activated. Tristan knew this fact very well, but he just gritted his teeth and proceeded nonetheless.

The skill was the blood elf skill that he learned when he managed to get past his first death against elves in the kingdom of Forlorn.

[Blood Legacy]

[3000 blood essence required, proceed?]

The blood elf monarch stage 6 body required Tristan to lose more blood essence to use his giant transformation skill [Blood Legacy], almost three times the blood essence he had to use now compared to previously.

To be honest, in his heart, Tristan really wanted to save on the consumption of the blood essence he had accumulated so far, but circumstances forced him to act otherwise.

Tristan had no other choice but to use his blood essence to help the elves win a war that, in his eyes, was impossible to obtain unless a miracle happened. Therefore, instead of waiting for it to happen like others, Tristan decided to be the miracle itself.

"Yes."

[3000 blood essence has been consumed]

Tristan could feel his heart beating faster to pump blood vigorously throughout his body, spreading completely through his veins which were instantly forced to expand like an object with high elasticity.

Furthermore, he could feel his body being tortured, cut by sharp objects, slashed with swords, stabbed with hot spearheads. All of these excruciating sensations and their consequences made his blood move out through the pores of the skin surface intact unscathed.

Tristan's body gradually grew to a very large size with a very thick layer of red blood appearing to hide his true skin. His form has now turned into a massive humanoid figure completely made of blood.

Subsequently, Tristan again lost control of his own body. He knew that it would happen again, and using the blood elf ability that was hidden within him was the plan for now.

In the meantime, the dark wolves and night wolves around Tristan seemed to be distracted as they watched the changes that had occurred in Tristan's body. They yelped and howled, because Tristan's form, which was more like a blood monster, made them feel intimidated and in danger.

As the transformation was almost complete, the chant-like voice once again appeared in his mind over and over again.

"Slaughter! Slaughter! Slaughter!"

The muscles in Tristan's body tightened behind the thick layer of blood that covered his body. His muscle mass continued to increase as if pumped from within his body with a tremendous flow of power. His teeth started to grow longer and sharp, filling his jaw until he eventually couldn't keep his mouth shut; while his fingernails were replaced by sharp claws that seemed to be able to tear through anything.

DASH!

The human figure, fully made of blood, shot forward brutally, crashing over several wolves who weren't prepared violently and sending their bodies flying uncontrollably in the air. However, before the wolves could land again and land hard on the ground–

SPLAT!

The floating wolves' bodies ended up being stuck by Tristan's terrifying long claws.

On the other hand, the group of elven magus around Tristan had seemingly come into a tacit understanding and decided to leave the task of defending the main gate to Tristan who had transformed into something very promising to lead them to victory.

Now that they were freed from the task of defending the main gate, they immediately launched attacks on the Titan wolf in unison.

"Tie the wolf's four legs with your wood magic spell, Leena. Make him immobile!" Callan gave orders to the Queen of Vanyar, Leena. And she nodded in agreement, immediately preparing a magic spell that could be used to curb the Titan wolf.

"King Vizier, Lord Osgiliath, go and attack the Titan wolf from above. Hanz and I will attack him from below."

Mustering all the elven magus on the battlefield to defeat the Titan wolf was the only thing on Callan's mind.

However, before the plan even went according to plan, suddenly the Titan wolf raised its two front paws high in the air, then swung its claws in front of the elven magus who were standing crosswise in front of it.

[Destructive Claws]

King Vizier who didn't want to be attacked for the second time by the Titan wolf immediately issued a high tier fire magic spell protection [Enhanced Fire Wall] at the right time, protecting the unlucky group of elven magus from attacks coming from the Titan wolf with a dense wall of fire that erupted very quickly and strongly.

BANG!
