Chapter 471 Fighting The Wolf

Reign and the others were staring at the giant wolf as the latter was lazing around and staring at the sky while the others wolves followed its example and did the same.

Howls could occasionally be heard as the pack of wolves would communicate with the wolves that were patrolling the territory.

Reign and the others were able to get close to the giant wolf and its pack without having to fight other wolves this time, which made everything a bit easier for them.

Still, they were a bit nervous as the number of enemies this time would be much higher compared to the last battle they had. The tortoise and its five brethren were a headache to deal with, and even though they highly doubted that the giant wolf would have something like an array, they were still on high alert in case something like that happened.

They were currently thinking of what to do first, should they target the giant wolf and try to wound it with a powerful attack at the bat, or should they first try to kill and wound the other wolves before attacking the main one?

Getting rid of the other wolves would definitely help them out, but so would wounding the Tier II wolf as well.

The only problem was the fact that they had no idea how high the defense of the wolf was, nor how fast it was.

If the wolf was to dodge the attack, then they would have made a mistake and they would lose the chance to deal some damage right off the bat.

Because of all that, the team decided that they would attack the other wolves first.

They didn't have a lot of time to prepare for their attacks since the wolves would definitely sense them. Reign and the others nodded at each other before spreading around a bit and starting their attacks.

The mana fluctuations coming from them immediately alerted the wolves, but it wasn't only the ones in front of them, but a couple of other groups that were present inside the territory.

Suddenly howls could be heard reverberating through the mountain as the wolves got ready to fight. The ones that were out patrolling hurried back while Reign and the others all grimaced after realizing what was happening.

They quickly launched their skills at the wolves before charging in to fight.

Beast and Laura of course stayed back, but this time, all of Beast's summons came out while the four generals of Tank, together with about 100 soldiers appeared around them as well.

The 100 soldiers were what the four generals had managed to force to submit so far. The lowest leveled soldier was level 70, while the highest was level 86.

They previously had more soldiers under their command, but they had perished after multiple battles against other groups of enemies inside the mysterious realm.

'That should be enough to guarantee our safety, me and Laura can focus on using our long-range attacks without worrying about getting ambushed by any wolves that are coming back.' Beast thought as he notched an arrow on his bow before firing it at an unsuspecting wolf

Reign and the others had started fighting at close range, the skills they had previously launched were able to deal some damage and kill about 8 wolves. It was a great success, but the hardest part of the fight was yet to come.

Tens, if not hundreds of wolves were hurrying back, and Reign and the others knew that they would be unable to defeat the Tier II wolf before they arrived.

The monster was still on the same rock as it previously was. It wasn't lying down this time, merely sitting and observing Reign and the others with interest and shrewdness.

"You sure are enjoying the view, huh!?" Shadow shouted before disappearing from the spot and appearing next to the giant wolf.

The monster had a clear look of surprise as Shadow appeared, but that expression turned to anger soon.

It was the leader of the pack, one of the most powerful monsters on the mountain, being attacked by Shadow directly infuriated the proud monster.

It swiped its claws at Shadow and sent five beams of light at him.

Shadow was quick to dodge, which turned out to be the right call since the five beams passed through multiple trees with ease before dissipating.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Numerous trees fell down from the one slash of the wolf as Shadow stared at it before twirling his daggers and charging at the monster.

They needed to find out just how fast and powerful the monster was before fully committing to attack it. The other wolves were not an issue to Reign and the others, even though more were coming and some had already arrived, it would only take them a bit of time to get rid of them.

When put up against Reign and the others, any monster below level 100 was not an issue.

The numbers, however, were slightly troublesome. As more and more wolves appeared, fighting them became more difficult.

The wolves didn't have any arrays, but they were well proficient in fighting as a group. They would circle around, attack from all sides, and back away when sensing danger.

Still, that didn't save them.

Reign for one was too fast for the wolves who were simply unable to run away from him in time.

Wolf's powerful flames made them afraid of coming nearby, something he used to block them and attack the Tier II wolf who was locked in battle with Shadow who was on the defensive side the whole time.

When it came to its defense, the wolf was not as good as the lizard, not to mention the tortoise they previously fought. Offensively, it had good attacks, but once again, nothing special.

Its speed was above average, that much was certain, but it was the flexibility of the wolf that was the main issue.

The whole could swiftly turn around and attack at any angle, making it very difficult to hit it from a blind spot or to block its attacks.

Even though its defense was below the other two Tier II monsters they had fought against, it was still not a weakness it had since its fur was even capable of enduring the powerful flames that Wolf possessed.

It could also turn its fur metallic, something that made its defensive properties shoot up while not suffering any consequences from it.

The metallic fur was not only good at protecting it, but it also allowed the wolf to use it offensively as its sharpness was enough to puncture through trees and rocks.

Its teeth would pulverize rocks with ease, something that Shadow himself had personally witnessed after dodging a bite of the wolf.

The small army that Tank's four generals had brought worked hard to protect Beast and Laura as they kept the monsters at bay. The four generals, together with Beast's summons would charge in and defeat any approaching wolves while the army kept them busy and in place.

Neither of the two needed to move from the spot as they were perfectly fine and protected thanks to that.

Reign and the others were focusing on killing the wolves as quickly as possible before joining Shadow and Wolf in battling the Tier II monster that was seemingly still not taking them seriously.

It was like the deaths of its brethren did nothing to the wolf, it showed no sympathy or anger after seeing the dead bodies of tens of wolves littering the area. More and more wolves appeared, but they were weaker compared to the ones in the beginning, which made it possible for Tank to come over and help Shadow and Wolf out while the rest continued dealing with the waves of enemies coming at them.

The wolves fought against Reign and the others without any fear. Even though many were dying every single second, they seemingly didn't care for it.

As for the Tier II wolf, it was currently fighting against the trio of Wolf, Shadow, and Tank.

From what Reign and the others could see, the three were actually dealing with the wolf with relative ease. None of them were injured, while the wolf was constantly defending and dodging attacks.

Its speed was great, but Tank was still able to follow its movement and block attacks, which made it easy for Wolf and Shadow to attack it and deal damage.

'This, this is way too easy, why?' Reign suddenly asked himself as he killed another wolf that had jumped at him.

There were only about 20 wolves left, over a hundred were scattered around them, lying lifelessly on the ground.

The 20 would soon join them, they were simply incapable of surviving the onslaught.

Reign and the others all charged at the wolf while Beast's summons and Tank's generals slaughtered the remaining wolves.

Reign had a bad feeling, he could sense that something was not right. Upon joining the fight, all of them were surprised by how easy the wolf was to be dealt with. It was completely suppressed by them and couldn't even hit anyone at this point.

All of that changed when the last wolf was killed by one of Tank's generals.

The second it happened, the eyes of the Tier II wolf shone brightly before it opened its mouth.

Reign widened his eyes in shock as he was able to sense that the souls of the dead wolf were being drawn to the Tier II wolf, with each one making it stronger.

He quickly used his black and white lightning in order to stop the wolf from consuming more souls, but by the time he had done so, about 70% of the souls had been consumed.
