Chapter 1756: Berserker Wolf.
Legion-1's axe was going for the neck of the ice wolf because it was the easiest part to hit, but the wolf blocked it with its paw. The paw failed to block the attack, so it was cut off, and the axe also cut into its chest.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The single attack damaged the wolf twice. It lost one of its legs and gained another gash to its chest. This reduced its hit points to 28.
-You Hit Ice Wolf with Harpoon.
-Strength (7) vs Endurance (4)
-Judgement: Attack Success.
-Damage: -4hp.
The strength of 7 against a defense of 4 reduced its health to 9. This wasn't the end. The harpoon was chained, and Legion-8 was pulling on it so the wolf couldn't utilize its speed.
It had just howled in pain because of the harpoon when an axe buried its blade in its head. Its head was divided cleanly in half by the attack. Its hit points fell to 1. He had done an increased amount of damage to it because of its reduced Endurance.
It tried to heal itself, but 1 hit point wasn't enough for that, so its vitality fell to o and it died. Its body turned into snow that fell to the ground. At the center of the snow was a white, opaque crystal. Legion-1 picked it up hurriedly and stored it in his inventory space.
The movement of the other clones caught the attention of the other ice wolves and caused them to become aggressive. They rose up to interfere in the fight too. Only 9 of them rose up to fight, but they prioritized killing Legion-1 first because he had a higher perceived threat level.
They rushed towards him, but they were attacked with arrows before they reached him. An arrow from Legion-2's bow pierced into the eye of a wolf. It dealt just -1 hp damage because his total strength was 6 against the defense of 6. But the eye was damaged enough to make the wolf blind in one eye. It decided to heal the damage, which cost it 5 more of its hit points. Legion-1's fight has taught them a lot of things about the wolves. The most important lesson they learned is that it is best to make critical damage that would reduce the fighting strength of their enemy.
They have learned that skill and technique are not entirely useless. They have also learned that even though Divine creatures don't have weaknesses, it is best to aim for critical parts of their body, such as limbs, eyes, and heads.
This is where skill becomes useful. It helps them to land hits on these critical parts of the body. This way they would be able to deal double damage with a single attack or even force their enemies to waste divine energy to heal.
Legion-2 rained down arrows on them, which made the wolves dodge to avoid damage. This inevitably slowed them down and allowed Legion-1 to be reinforced by Legion-7.
