Capítulo 40: Facing the Wolves Head-on
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Moss immediately knew that something was wrong when the golden-red light was attacking him. He jumped down from the tree just before the sword attacked.
"Moss!"
The two people on the tree were surprised when Moss went down.
Cullen's current level had far surpassed theirs. Because of the darkness in the forest, the two of them did not see the golden-red sword attack.
Moss did not panic when he landed. Although he was forced to the ground by Cullen's flying sword, he had jumped down from the tree by himself, so his landing was not awkward.
As soon as Moss landed, he immediately saw the Explosive Wolves behind Cullen and the others.
The wolf pack was overwhelming, and several Level-5 to Level-7 wolves were among them.
Moss was secretly shocked by the number of Explosive Wolves. At the same time, he quickly turned around and shouted at Alan and Ell, "Run, the two of you, run towards the entrance of the valley. The Explosive Wolves behind are too strong and can climb trees!"
Alan and Ell were immediately shocked. They quickly jumped down from the trees and ran towards the valley entrance.
Alan was still worried about Moss. He asked, "Moss, will you be okay? Do you need help?"
Moss shook his head and replied, "No need. I know what I'm doing. I'll be right over!"
After saying that, Moss pointed his sword in the direction where the Explosive Wolves were attacking. He seemed to have entered a state of alert and lost the mood to speak.
When Alan saw this, he gritted his teeth and did not say anything else. He started running towards the entrance of the valley.
He trusted Moss 100%, especially after Moss had proven himself time and time again in this Mystic Realm.
He also knew that once Moss wanted him to leave, it must be because he would drag him down if he stayed. Hence, he did not hesitate at all. He even sped up slightly as he ran.
Moss heard the sound of Alan leaving and felt at ease.
He did not plan to be a hero by letting Alan leave first. It was indeed not the time for him to go yet. He wanted to try and stop the Explosive Wolf pack.
One reason was that he was too close to the Explosive Wolves when he was forced down the tree by Cullen. Alan and the others could escape, but he had no room to turn back. He had to face the Explosive Wolf pack head-on.
Once again, Moss suddenly understood. They had been wrong. They felt that the ground movement caused by the Explosive Wolf was the same as the last time. It was a pack of wolves crossing the border and running toward a specific target, but now it seemed that they were chasing after Cullen and the other students with a target, which created a problem.
Moss did not think that the Explosive Wolves could tell if they were on the same side as Cullen and the rest. In the eyes of these Magical Beasts, they were all hateful humans.
Not only would they chase Cullen and the others, but they would also treat humans who hid in the trees as targets for killing.
When they were hiding in the trees just now, they had already wasted some time. Now, if they wanted to let Alan and the others escape smoothly, leaving someone behind to block these Magical Beasts was necessary.
Moreover, Moss did not tell Alan that he needed a chance to level up crazily. This idea actually started when Ell met them and told them that they had failed the raid on the boss.
In fact, Cullen's idea was correct.
They used numbers to pin down the powerful Mystic Realm boss, and then the strongest person would launch a fatal attack. But in the end, their attempt failed.
Moss felt that there were two reasons for this failure. First, the person who launched the attack was not strong enough.
According to Ell, Cullen was the one who launched the final attack, and Cullen was only Level-6. Obviously, it was not enough to deal a fatal blow to the Mystic Realm boss.
Secondly, they did not expect that the boss of the Mystic Realm could summon so many Explosive Wolves as guards.
Ell's team was scattered by the wolves that came after them. Although the boss of the Mystic Realm had caused some damage to them, it did not pose a fatal threat. Therefore, Moss set two goals for himself.
The first was to kill as many enemies as possible to level up. The second was to lure these enemies to the entrance of the valley.
Moss had also heard Cullen's method just now. Although Cullen's character was not good, he had good ideas. His idea was exactly the same as Moss'.
The entrance of the valley could significantly restrict the performance of the wolves. It was a perfect place to block them.
To complete these goals, Moss had to fight these Explosive Wolves here. But when he faced these Explosive Wolves, even Moss felt that something was wrong. These Explosive Wolves were too strong.
Moss looked at the Explosive Wolves in front of him, and a bright light flashed in his eyes. These Explosive Wolves chasing after Cullen could undoubtedly be called "Elites.".
The lowest level among the Explosive Wolves in front of him was Level-4. These were the most basic pack members, and plenty of higher-level wolves were among them.
'This is good.' Moss thought to himself.
The entire pack of Explosive Wolves above Level-4 should be here.
It seemed that these Explosive Wolves had marked Cullen and the others. Otherwise, they would not have received such important attention.
Then, Moss suddenly thought of a possibility.
Other Mystic Realm bosses summoned these Explosive Wolves to act as guards. Now that the most elite group of Explosive Wolves were chasing after Cullen and the rest, who would guard the boss itself?
Could it be that it was not guarded at all?
Moss looked at the pack of Explosive Wolves, and the wariness in his eyes intensified.
"Awooo!"
When the Explosive Wolves saw that someone actually dared to block them, they did not hesitate to attack.
With a howl, at least three Level-4 Explosive Wolves at the front of the pack bit Moss simultaneously. In contrast, the other Explosive Wolves kept rushing forward, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner, with a clear division of labor. However, it was still too early for them to be at ease.
A white light flashed past.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The sound of a heavy object falling was heard, and the corpses of the three Explosive Wolves fell to the ground.
Around Moss, the Explosive Wolves running past suddenly stopped in their tracks.
