Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Fierce Battle in the Woods

Of the four warriors who came out with Augusto, only two were left when they returned. In fact, the strength of those wolves and wild boars was not stronger than them, but their sudden attack made them unable to guard against them, and they suffered a great loss in negligence.

As they climbed down the hill, they saw more animals rushing towards their team's camp from the other direction.

This team not only has seven or eight wild wolves, but also two giant bears and a tiger. These animals, who are usually incompatible, now gathered together and pounced on the Shadow Regiment.

In Augusto's absence, Gerardo commanded the men to prepare for battle, they had discovered the strangeness of this animal team, but still thought that these beasts had nothing to fear.

"Gerardo, they're not animals, they're undead!" the two warriors warned loudly as they rushed over.

But Gerardo didn't have time to tell what they were talking about, and just as they were shouting, the beasts had already pounced.

"Mage!" Gerardo roared.

After a dozen warriors and assassins lined up, the spider web spells of the two mages shrouded the beasts. However, the response of these beasts was completely different from what they had imagined, and the first two giant bears stood up, their claws emitting a faint purple light, and with a strong slash in the air, the cobwebs that had shrouded the past became torn apart, and the wild wolves, led by the tigers, easily passed through the gaps in the cobwebs and jumped out of the magically covered area.

"Attack with elemental magic. Gerardo shouted again.

But at this time, there was a scream behind him. A black figure suddenly appeared behind a mage, and the mages had no defense against the beast, and the black shadow opened its mouth and bit off the mage's neck.

"Enemy attack!" the other mage exclaimed, hurriedly giving up his attack spell and running away as he put layers of defense on his body.

Gerardo looked back and saw a sturdy figure trampling on the dead mage's body, baring his teeth at him. It was a pure black wolf, smashing the blood from its mouth and looking at Gerardo defiantly.

"It's ...... Shadow Wolf!" said a veteran assassin beside Gerardo.

The Shadow Wolf is not an ordinary beast, but a true high-level magical beast. Not only is it more powerful than ordinary wolves, but it also has a series of special abilities, its fur can absorb light, so it is difficult to detect when moving, and it also has the ability to teleport over short distances, so it is a difficult monster to deal with. This shadow wolf is supposed to be the overlord of the nearby forest, and for some reason it is also involved in this attack.

The mage just now must have died on its teleportation raid.

"Ramsey, Gretel, Malos, you three deal with this shadow wolf!" Heral nodded the names of the three masters, "The others and I will deal with this group of beasts first!"

After getting started with these wild **, Gerardo understood what the three guys who came from behind were yelling, whether it was a tiger, a bear or a wolf, they all violated the nature of animals, and they fought very cunningly, and the hunting methods used by the warriors of the Shadow Regiment had no effect at all.

The beasts even lined up, with the thick-skinned bears flanking in front, agile tigers looking for opportunities, and wolves split in half, six roaming the periphery to raid the gaps, and four performing their magic in the rear.

The wolf mages here are stronger and more numerous than the one that Augusto had encountered before. Before the two sides could engage in battle, the other party cast two greasy spells and two fireball spells. The black grease burst open, covering the ground, and also stained the bodies of several people who did not separate the grease with fighting spirit in time, and the fireballs that followed ignited the grease, and the churning flames centered on the landing point of the fireball, blooming like a red flower, and the ground became a sea of fire, and the grease attached to the people's bodies was as difficult to get rid of as maggots on the tarsal bones, and soon burned those people to the ground.

The ShadowOrder's warriors are mostly agile types, and most of them scatter when the flames ignite. But avoiding the flames, they were greeted by bear's paws and wolf claws. The animals were completely unafraid of the flames, even if they reached their bodies, and instead tried to force them back into the flames by attacking the Shadowmen who were running outward.

"What's going on!What kind of monster is this?" Gerardo was confused by the scene in front of him, he flew up and pulled back a burning low-level assassin from the flames, trying to suppress the flames on his body with his fighting energy, but the flames on the grease were very stubborn, and he struggled to extinguish the flames, but the assassin was already burned to the ground and fell unconscious, "Losada, you take three people to kill that magic wolf first, Luko, don't brush the shield, quickly kill those two stupid bears......"

Although the people of the Shadow Regiment were taken by surprise, they were all experienced warriors after all, and as they came back to their senses and figured out the tricks of those animals, they began to slowly stabilize the situation. Although these bears and tigers are dozens of times stronger than ordinary humans under the blessing of magical power, they are not very adapted to their own bodies, and their dexterity is relatively limited. In the middle of the confrontation, there were both Shadow Regiment's men who died in the bear's claws, and giant bears who were shot in the neck and had their heads cut off.

Fighting with wolves is a different style, with several Assassins and wolves moving quickly, constantly swapping positions and trying to attack each other, trying to leave a wound between their bodies.

The other agile Assassins lunged at the wolf mages, and they managed to push them away, interrupting their next wave of swarm magic, and under their pursuit, the wolves could only run away and harass them with instantaneous small magic.

The battlefield here is chaotic and the scene is fierce, while the other three fight with the Shadow Wolf seems to be muddy, the Shadow Wolf's attack power is not particularly strong, but the ability to dodge and swim away is a little more clever than the assassins of the Shadow Regiment. Often, when an Assassin was about to inflict a fatal wound on it, it activated its natural abilities and teleported away.

The three Assassins fought around the Shadow Wolf for a long time, leaving only two scars on the Shadow Wolf's back, but there were more large and small claw marks on his own body. All they could do was hold back the cunning beast so that he could no longer sneak up on the mage or cause trouble on the other side of the battlefield.
