Chapter 209: Wolves on the Run

The wolves scurried out of the shadows and collided head-on with the Night's Watch troops. [For more exciting novels, please visit M]

It wasn't just wolves in the sense of the word, in addition to the gigantic monsters that the Prophet had summoned, there were even more bizarre humanoids clinging to them, with slender limbs, red eyes and sharp fangs that extended almost beyond their lips.

This monster never seems to have left its mark on history, and it is difficult to tell where they came from even by the experience of a magician girl, and if you have to define it in an adjective familiar to humans, it is like a pack of hungry mad dogs.

The head wolf was huge, the size of two bulls, and his fur was as hard as iron, leaving little mark on it with ordinary weapons. Relying on his physical superiority, the head wolf unscrupulously rushed into the forward array of the Night's Watch troops, squeezed the defending soldiers to both sides, he lowered his head and bit the body of a cavalryman, and threw the cavalryman and his horse with a flick of his neck.

El, who had been staring at the shadows, had a dark blue glow in his eyes. On his left arm, the second rune of the newborn burned silently. In the world presented by the Eye of True Sight, the body of the black giant wolf, which had become transparent, emerged with veins like roots. In the background of the dark blue world, the red light condensed on those veins was particularly dazzling, and it was the vital part of the giant wolf's body!

The second rune, named Ender, means clarity, and the rune ability is crucial to master!

This was the reward he had received for his sacrifice to Quetzalcoatl last night with the Dollmaster's soul fragment, which was far beyond El's psychological expectations. He had no idea that in addition to self-comprehension in battle, he could actually obtain new runes in this way.

Objectively speaking, the soul of a gold-rank powerhouse is far from the value of a rune, the former is incalculably valuable, while the latter is the power that Elr desperately needs. Although there was a great element of luck in killing the Dollmaster this time, it also gave El an extra boost to move forward, at least providing him with a direction to work on.

The ability to clear the rune is equivalent to the enhanced form of insight into the rune, and under the effect of this rune, El can intuitively understand the vital points of the enemy. Unlike ordinary beasts, the giant wolf in front of him was not his eyes but his ears, which saved him the temptation process.

The wolves collided head-on with the Night's Watch troops, and the humanoid monster clinging to the giant wolf howled and jumped into the soldier's defensive array from mid-air, breaking through the soldier's defense at an astonishing speed, completely breaking the defensive array on the front line.

General Hank snorted coldly, striding forward with his two-handed heavy sword in his hand, the long sword dragged a deep mark on the ground, and suddenly picked it up, blowing a violent wind. The giant wolf in front of him had a hint of madness in his eyes, and he opened his bloody mouth and bit down. Hearing only a loud and tooth-aching sound, the giant wolf actually bit the blade of the heavy sword steadily.

"Die, brute!" General Hank shouted, his wrist flipped in an instant, and the wolf's sharp teeth snapped, and before it could feel the pain, the heavy sword in its mouth had changed its angle flexibly, and plunged into its throat along the corner of its mouth.

Almost at the same time, the head wolf who was close at hand also stopped and bit off one of the soldiers, and cast a provocative gaze in this direction, letting out a long howl at General Hank, whose face was covered in wolf blood.

General Hank kicked away the giant wolf's corpse with a blank face, shook the blood from the heavy sword, and bent his legs slightly in a battle posture. But he didn't wait for this seemingly glorious battle, the wolf tilted its head and just began to raise its head to the sky and roar, the huge wolf head suddenly seemed to be twisted by an invisible hand, and the long howl stopped abruptly. A white feather arrow shot into the back of his ear at some point, but the seemingly insignificant part made his huge body twitch involuntarily, and his body stiffened and fell down.

Elle climbed onto the roof of the house, his bow and arrows as he went, his rate of fire was not fast, but every time he shot an arrow would inevitably cause a giant wolf to fall to the ground. Under the guidance of the white feather arrows, the hard-fighting soldiers discovered the vital point of the giant wolf, so they rushed up and plunged the weapon in their hands into the ear of the giant wolf, piercing the skull of the giant wolf, and these huge beasts who were struggling finally gradually fell silent.

Little by little, the chaotic situation is being brought under control.

The claws of the humanoid monsters were just as sharp, and any soldier who was scratched and bitten by them quickly showed a state of madness similar to that when they were attacked, they did not distinguish between friend and foe. Although the Night's Watch warriors had experience dealing with it, this time the onset was just as rapid. After the giant wolves that charged into battle fell one by one, these humanoid monsters, along with the soldiers who were unfortunately injured and infected in the battle, formed a stubborn force and began to fight back, and the flames of war began to spread to every street.

"If these monsters are allowed to develop, our casualties will be higher and greater. El frowned and muttered to himself with some exasperation, now he regretted sending Palanti out to investigate, and the scout force led by her had not been heard from so far, which was obviously not normal, and he didn't know what trouble he had.

Although General Hank's strength is a little stronger than Palanti, his combat style is more old-fashioned. He is a good fighter, but not a proper killer. Of course, one of the more important reasons is that the mid-level forces of the Night's Watch force have all been drawn out by El at this time, which makes him lack the auxiliary strength to control the situation.

"General, are we going to wait any longer?" Kenan, who was following El, couldn't help but ask, his warriors were in a bitter battle, and his own side couldn't make a move. If it were someone else who had a quick turn, he might not be able to help but suspect that El was taking the opportunity to wear down the power of the Night's Watch.

Kenan's mind wasn't so dark, but he couldn't bear the futile wait. If El didn't give the order, he didn't know if he would be able to take it.

"Almost, take your people on board. El watched the last giant wolf fall to the ground, sighed and whispered. He could understand the thoughts of the Night's Watch officers, but victory in this war could not be measured by simple casualty figures. So far, he has not seen Hercules Hagnan or the Prophet Muhammad make a personal move, which means that the opponent's hole cards have not been exhausted, and his side cannot afford to mess with itself until then.

Although the scene before us may seem chaotic, the Night's Watch forces still have the upper hand. No matter how vicious those giant wolves and humanoid monsters were, they were nothing more than a rabble, and there was no chance of victory in the face of a formed regular army. Perhaps with the help of Black Rain, they inflicted heavy casualties on their troops, but such casualties were not unacceptable, and even General Hank, who was in the midst of it, remained calm and unwavering, even in battle, with obvious reservations.

At best, those monsters can only delay the team's progress...... Or is this the real purpose of the prophet?

Five gem-armed officers of the Night's Watch joined the fray and turned the tide almost instantly. Those humanoid monsters are agile and powerful, and their bodies also have considerable protective ability, and they can fight head-on with ordinary soldiers with their bare hands, but these advantages are useless in front of the quasi-silver-level powerhouses.

The blades of the Jewel Armament were almost indestructible, and wherever the five Night's Watch officers passed, neither the monsters nor the sick were powerless, and they roamed the battlefield with ease, coming and going, setting off a whirlwind of killing. Imagine five Palanti being present at the same time to see how much damage they can cause.

Unfortunately, this power is only a temporary illusion, and it comes with dangerous hidden dangers. If this battle lasts longer than ten minutes, these pseudo-powerhouses who kill like mowing grass will have to take their own lives.

In the distance in the night sky, a red firework suddenly rose, which was not very conspicuous among the yellow fireworks that burst one after another around it, but it was still locked in the direction by El for the first time.

The fireworks signal of the Istalon army, yellow means that the enemy is fighting, orange means that the enemy is in need of support, and red means that the enemy is invincible!

Is there a second possibility for an enemy who is too strong to be defeated in this city? The red fireworks, from another point of view, are likely to represent that one of the troops has discovered the enemy's hidden lair. Either way, it's a big fish.

However, that fireworks were only the beginning, and before El could give the order, several more red fireworks burst into the sky, and from the direction, they were actually coming from far and near, heading towards the current battlefield.

"Very well, if you can sit still, then I'm going to have a headache. El stood on the roof, feeling the faint coercion of a presence rapidly approaching from a distance, and his heart was relieved. This war has been fought so far, both sides have reached the point of breaking their muscles and bones, if those two old Wang Ba can still calm down, it will be his turn to be weak-hearted.

"I feel the shadow of terror!" Tiana's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, the magician girl had already hidden herself at this time, but El knew that she was not far away, and at least she should be able to hear her own voice.

"Get ready, our dinner tonight is finally going to begin. El stretched, moved his muscles, clenched the dragon's tooth arch and smiled, "Guess what we're going to encounter?"

"The demon who used to be called Hagnum. Tiana's voice was faint, "I don't think they would be staunch fanatics, what was it that drove him to fall?"

This question may never be answered again, because the person concerned should have sacrificed his soul. Feeling the tremor of the earth, Er stared at it, and saw a three-story villa rising from the ground in the darkness and being thrown into the air!
