Chapter 8: The Manic Beast

They don't have too thick armor.

"Ahhhh———h

It's not like ghosts, who can ignore death.

"You...... You're attacking law enforcement officers, you're violating—whoa—"

Releasing the bone-shattered wrist of the first instigator and letting him roll on the ground, I didn't pause for a moment, stepped forward with my left foot and twisted my waist, and a lunge punch struck the speaker in the abdomen. When the fists touched, I clearly felt the barrier of spells attached to the claws almost dissipate.

Looking at the appearance of the squad leader who was beaten upside down and flew out, I felt that maybe the attack was a little heavier.

"So, it's time to move your muscles."

"Hopefully, Gort's barrier magic won't fail due to a violent collision. ”

The beast spirit that lurked in its body and consciousness emerged from its dormant position as if awakened by the smell of blood, and began to flow among the hundreds of limbs. I could clearly feel the strength of my body growing.

Actually, to deal with these guys, I don't need to get the beast spirit in tune with me, but with its help, the pace will be a little faster.

"Quick...... Let's get on it together and kill this subhuman monster!"

"Get on, get on me!"

The street soldiers, who finally realized how dangerous the girl they were facing, did not stand there like wooden men anymore, and raised their weapons and smashed them at me standing by the wall.

But neither strength nor speed could hurt me, who was in tune with the beast spirit, though it was impossible not to be touched because of the sheer number of them.

Puff –

A slight itch came from multiple parts of my body, and the corners of my mouth couldn't help but rise slightly as I watched the street soldiers smash sticks on my body, revealing their fangs. Ordinary human beings are still too weak in terms of physique.

"Beaten to death or crippled?"

"Just knock it down. ”

Barely dodging, I slammed in one direction against their attacks, clenched into fists and struck continuously, and soon my hair was soiled by nosebleeds, saliva, snot, and so on.

Most of these so-called street pawns were only equipped with leather armor and iron light helmets, and whether they attacked the torso or the head, they basically fell with a single blow——— not so much fighting as practicing control of strength.

After all, killing people is still very troublesome for me who plans to explore human society.

After about 10 seconds of simultaneous claw swing and brisk stride, I stopped and turned around to look at the street soldier lying on the ground, feeling a little uncomfortable. Several of them were bleeding from their noses and mouths, and they looked like they were going to die.

Let's hope they're tenacious enough to survive until the doctors and priests arrive.

"Hey, you seem to be punching faster, don't hurry up."

"No, if you continue to fight it, the barrier magic will be gone. ”

"You can "borrow" a shield for use, blunt weapons, and it is not easy to die."

"Hey, great idea. ”

Under the watchful eyes of the street guards on both sides of the street, I crouched down and picked up the round shield with a tin and wooden structure at my feet. As I stood up, I glanced at them and saw that each of them had shock and horror in their eyes - the same as the Swift Sheep who had been attacked by us while drinking by the Cold Creek.

Fearful prey can become clumsy even if it runs away.

"Find the Guards!"

Noticing the leader-looking humans of the street strokes shouting this to his men, I held my shield in my left hand and stepped back with my right foot, tensing my muscles. It's a sheep.

Humans are fragile individuals, but they are a powerful race – provided that they are guided by wise and courageous leaders.

"This guy's armor and weapons aren't the same."

"It's just sheep with a little longer horns. ”

Without giving the human a chance to reorganize his subordinates, the leg muscles I had cultivated from countless hunting on the rugged roads of the Yunman Mountains suddenly exerted force, pushing my body out as fast as I could. The humans who had just raised the sticks had no chance to let them fall again.

In my eyes, their reflexes are faster than even the children of the Tooth Wolf Clan.

Puff - bell - click———

Listening to the sound of all kinds of objects colliding, I didn't look at the miserable street pawns who were knocked over and knocked down by me, but just broke through their shrinking defenses and went straight to the "head sheep" who drew his sword.

Unexpectedly, as I kicked the last street soldier in front of him, he raised his sword and slashed at me with all his might—the path was diagonal, and if I lunged straight forward, I would surely be slashed.

Bang Dang———

The sound of the iron sheet colliding with the iron sheet did not sound as pleasant as expected.

Looking at the leader of the street soldiers who had been hit by the shield frisbee and fell to the ground with a miserable howl, I didn't stop, walked over and stepped on his sword, and thought for a moment.

Nearly half of the street guards had fallen to the ground howling, and none of the remaining ones, although they had not laid down their weapons and fled, dared to attack again. So......

"Huh?"

But at this moment, I realized that there was still a human standing in the battle circle.

Is it because the threat is too low and ignored by the beast spirits?

"That...... Miss Wolf ......"

Noticing that I was staring at her, the human girl dressed like the elder of the clan describing the "maid", forced herself to flee without turning around, and squeezed out a trembling smile.

"Huh?"

"Are you...... It's gone too far. ”

After saying that, she walked over quickly and hugged my right arm——— of course it was impossible to restrain me, and I was surprised that she, a weak human woman, dared to stick directly to stop me.

On her body, I smelled a nice smell.

"What do you want to do?"

Staring at the strange human girl who was almost crying, I asked in as calm a tone as I could.

"Please...... Please stop fighting and run away!"

"Tut-tut, you actually injured so many of my subordinates - little girl, you are really strong!"

The words of the human girl beside her, and the hearty voice of another human male, reached the ears almost simultaneously.

Despite releasing his seventh sense in tune with the beast spirit, I still couldn't detect the latter——— not because he was too strong, but simply because he wasn't there.

"Is there such a sound snail in a human city?"

Following the direction from which the sound came, I looked up and saw a flashing conch on the watchtower across the street. This kind of alchemy product that can achieve "ten miles of sound transmission" after being administered the spell has also been bought by the patriarch of our tooth wolf clan from Mr. Gort.

It seems that he has provoked the generals by beating the pawns.

"Ah, so you're coming against me?"

Under the watchful eyes of the onlookers and the streetmen who were still standing, I took off my hat and revealed the wolf ears characteristic of the orcs. I was covered by a hat for a day and a night, and my ears were almost crushed.

Seeing it, the vast majority of the humans present showed expressions of fear and disgust, but there were also a small number of ——— whose eyes lit up. The human maid near me was one of them.

"No, no, don't get me wrong, I don't want to be violent to the cute and capable werewolf——— this kind of ungentlemanly behavior is of course carried out by my subordinates!

The conch didn't flash again, and instead of catching my eye, it was the signal flag of the human soldier in charge of the watchtower who was directing reinforcements from the street guards.

"Miss Wolf, the guards are coming soon, run!"

"Miss Werewolf, the walls to the south are being repaired, you can escape from there. ”

"Sister Wolf, run to the old city to the north, the guards don't want to catch you in that environment!"

I don't know why, the humans, who were supposed to be hostile to me, had some kind reminders to run away. I think it's probably because these humans, whom they call "street pawns", are even more annoying to them.

But that's not something I should be thinking about for the time being.

"Troublemaker, catch her over there!"

The sound of the unseen human was heard again from the sound snail, followed by the sound of armored soldiers marching on the ground en masse, coming from the east side of the street.

"The army? It's not easy to deal with in the jungle. Miss Human, please let me go. ”

"Ahh ”

When I went back to the alley, I picked up the dead man's robe, put it on, and walked back to the ox cart under the watchful eye of the street guards, I rubbed my ears and put on my hat, and decided to run. This has to be taken away with a lot of "extra harvest" ox carts, otherwise it will definitely bring big trouble to Gault.

"Goodbye, then, fellow humans. ”。

Just as I was communicating with the black bull pulling the cart through the beast spirit, and I was about to find a random way to run away, the maid who had tried to help me and stopped me just now ran over and grabbed my right paw again.

"Miss Wolf, I know a hiding place, let me show you the way!"
