"Intermediate beast?" Orion frowned, but then he suddenly realized—he had already mastered the mystic arts. What was there to fear? The Ring of Raggador could injure the Wolf King, and it was certain to defeat it!
It seemed that what someone had said was indeed right: Use magic to defeat magic!
Swish! Orion moved his left hand, and brilliant magical sparks generated a shield again.
The two shields took on natural shapes, with mysterious spells on their surfaces forming a solid barrier. They were imbued with a purple light due to Orion absorbing energy from the power gem.
Thus, the Ring of Raggador he cast exuded a violent pressure like that of a dragon, emitting a destructive aura of overwhelming power.
Even an intermediate beast couldn't withstand such real damage!
"Big brother!"
"What move is this?"
"So cool!"
"Can you teach it to Sugar?"
"Sugar wants to learn it too!"
Sugar's eyes sparkled as she quickly hugged Orion's thigh, pouted her lips, and acted cute.
Orion couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that the situation had completely reversed—Sugar, who used to support Orion, was now receiving support from him!
"Of course! I'll teach you both after I defeat the Wolf King!" Orion smiled.
Immediately, his sharp and determined eyes locked onto the Wolf King once more.
"Awoo—"
"Awoo—"
The Wolf King's eyes flashed, and it immediately raised its head, letting out a piercing howl.
The Ghost Wolves scattered in other locations also responded to the Wolf King's call, swiftly advancing towards their location.
One after another, the hungry Ghost Wolves with their skinny bodies and dark green eyes, filled with cruelty and brutality, circled around Orion.
[Mysterious Beast: Phantom Wolf]
[Level]: Low-level mysterious beast
[Talents]: Iron Claws and Copper Fangs (Green), Fight to the Death (White)
[Iron Claws and Copper Fangs] (Green): The Phantom Wolf possesses an incredibly strong bite force, and its claws can tear flesh and blood.
[Fight to the Death] (White):Without the Wolf King's order, the Phantom Wolf will fight to the last drop of blood.
"One Wolf King…"
"Ten Phantom Wolves…"
"Fortunately, the Phantom Wolves are all low-level mysterious beasts. Now, I don't have to worry about Sugar's safety," Orion thought to himself.
With the blue talent [God of Learning], he could see hidden information more clearly. This group of Phantom Wolves seemed to have gone without food for a while and were lacking in physical strength.
Moreover, the Wolf King's leg was injured, causing its movements to be awkward and slow. Orion might just have a chance—exploiting its injuries to defeat it!
"Big brother…"
"We must decide quickly."
"The cry of this Wolf King has attracted other powerful beasts!"
Sugar's face turned pale, trembling with fear, her beautiful eyes scanning the area anxiously.
"It attracted powerful beasts… Alright!"
"Protect yourself!" Orion acted decisively.
The next moment, he stepped forward, the Ring of Raggador glowing brightly, and hurled it towards the nearest Ghost Wolves.
Simultaneously, the other ten Ghost Wolves arched their bodies and charged towards Orion!
Their jaws opened wide, revealing sharp metallic fangs, and a foul wind blew in Orion's face!
In the midst of the Wolf Pack, Orion swayed left and right, easily avoiding their attacks. The Ring of Raggador suddenly exploded with a bang!
A Ghost Wolf was thrown back!
At this moment, Orion's talent as a [Martial Arts Master] played an unparalleled role, allowing him to effortlessly fend off the wolves alone!
Puff!
Explosions rang out!
The Ring of Raggador struck a Ghost Wolf's throat, dealing a fierce blow!
In seconds, all the Ghost Wolves were rendered immobile.
"Their vitality is truly tenacious…" Orion's expression hardened.
Looking at the Ghost Wolf with broken legs, his hands suddenly burst with brilliant light, instantly forming a mystical spear!
This was almost Orion's unique magic! With [God of Learning] and [Self-taught], he had grasped the essence of magical operations. He was even able to use it to perfection and develop many techniques!
In essence, magic was energy.
Energy could be like a trickle or a mighty river.
When poured into a bottle, it took the shape of a bottle, and when into a cup, the shape of a cup. Orion shaped magical power into a spear, and when infused with magic, it transformed into a mystical spear!
The power and strength of the mystical spear depended on his magic and imagination.
If Orion desired, he could materialize a Gatling gun and unleash a barrage!
Yet, without understanding the basic structure of the Gatling gun and lacking blueprints or information, he couldn't create one.
"This reminds me of the Green Lantern rings from the neighboring DC universe…"
Orion pondered.
He then swung his spear fiercely, its dragon-like form sweeping through a large area, fatally impaling the slow-moving Ghost Wolf!
Blood gushed from the wound.
An immediate broadcast in his ears sounded!
[Ghost Wolf killed]
[Luck +5]
[Luck +5]
[Luck +5]
…
"Luck +5!"
"Excellent!"
"By killing ten Ghost Wolves, I can gain 50 luck points. If I kill the Wolf King…"
"Wouldn't it double?"
Orion's eyes glittered with anticipation.
Then he realized that the Wolf King was attempting to flee, treating the Ghost Wolves like abandoned children!
"Big brother!"
"I'll stop him!"
Sugar shouted urgently.
In a flash, she stood before the Wolf King, fully trapping it alongside Orion!
"Awoo—"
The Wolf King raised its head and howled once more, but it could no longer summon other Ghost Wolves.
"Your death anniversary is marked for next year!" Orion smirked.
Instantly, the mystical spears dispersed, coalescing into a bow, its drawn string resembling a full moon!
An energy arrow appeared!
Whoosh!
Orion released the arrow, which streaked like lightning, piercing through the Wolf King's eye socket and skull!
[Killed the Wolf King]
[Luck +20]
"Fantastic!"
"Luck +20!"
"This time, I've hit the jackpot!"
Orion grinned.
A wave of harvesting!
Upon returning to the safe zone, he would immediately upgrade his [Martial Arts Master] talent!
A lottery?
Bah!
It wasn't worth it!
[Name]: Orion
[Identity]: Formal Mage
[Talents]: God of Learning (blue), Martial Arts Master (green), Self-taught (blue), Good Luck in Distress (green), Prepared to Become Mysterious Entity (black), Crime in the Hands of Treasure (black)
[Luck Value]: 140.9
Orion looked at his entry panel, feeling elated.
After this battle, his use of mystic arts had undoubtedly improved significantly. He had gained a deeper understanding of their essence.
In due time, he would surely become a formidable master of mystic arts.
"Big Brother!"
"Run!"
"A powerful beast is approaching!"
Sugar urgently tugged at Orion's trousers, her face filled with anxiety.
At that moment, a deafening roar of falling trees and crumbling mountains resounded!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
A towering behemoth, emitting a foul odor, strode across the heavens and earth like a mountain!
Subconsciously, Orion swallowed.
He immediately checked the entry panel of this powerful and mysterious beast.
