"Hey Ajax, what's with that face

", seeing the shocked expression on Ajax's face, Edmond felt good.

n

" Nothing

", Ajax soon suppressed his shock and thought, 'What cultivation did he reach, he killed nearly 100 green-furred wolves without using any techniques and also he is not completely tired'.

n

"Ajax, collect all the bodies of these wolves, they fetch us some good spirit stones

", Edmond tossed a space ring at Ajax while sitting.

nBut before Ajax can collect the bodies into the space ring, Edmond stood up and came before Ajax while looking at a certain distance.

nSoon, some silhouettes came from that distance.

nA large green-furred wolf, followed by 2 medium-sized green-furred wolves and more than a dozen small-sized green-furred wolves followed behind them.

n

"An early rank 5 spirit beast, two medium rank 4 spirit beasts and 12 rank peak rank 1 spirit beasts

", Edmond was shocked to see this lineup and quickly said to Ajax,

" Run as far as possible quickly

".

nWith that, he blasted a fire signal into the sky for others to know that they were in danger.

n

" Do you think you can live until the reinforcement comes here?

" the large early rank 5 spirit beast mocked Edmond.

n

"kill him

", Seeing Ajax running away, it ordered rank 1 spirit beasts.

nSoon more than a dozen rank 1 spirit wolves rushed after Ajax.

nSeeing this Edmond worried and tried to stop them but even before he can move, two rank 4 spirit beasts blocked him

n

" Please be safe, Ajax

", with a shout he turned around to face the two rank 4 spirit beasts.

nHis body is completely covered in fire, as his face is full of rage.

nWith the body full of fire, he rushed at them.

n....

nAjax ran into the direction of dense trees.

n

" I should find a safe hiding place quickly

", with that thought, he ran towards dense trees with a plan in his head.

nAs soon as he entered the area of dense trees, he activated the pendent's skill:- 'Summon of the dead' and summoned two undead soldiers and made them run into two different directions, whereas he climbed a large tree and hid in one of the branches.

nWhen wolves entered into that area, they split and ran towards the direction in which two undead skeletons ran.

nSeeing this, Ajax heaved a sigh of relief and summoned Death elemental spirit:- Necros and asked,

"At once, How many beasts can you confuse with your skill

".

n

" Maximum four, but it will strain me. Instead, I can easily confuse three wolves with ease and can control them for some time

", Necros answered respectfully.

n

"Good then, confuse the last 3 wolves and make them attack the wolves in front of them

", Ajax ordered Necros.

nSoon a black ray of light entered the heads of wolves from Necros making them confused, ie., making the wolves running in front of them to see as Ajax.

nWolves running in the front didn't even know what was happening before they died from the claws of their own brethren.

nAjax soon summoned the fire elemental spirit :- Volcanis and made him kill the confused wolves with his fire blast.

n'Ding,

nSuccessfully Killed a peak grade rank 1 Spirit beast, Green furred wolf

n30 units of the essence of nature absorbed.

n'Ding,

nSuccessfully Killed a peak grade rank 1 Spirit beast, Green furred wolf

n30 units of the essence of nature absorbed.

n..'Ding,

n....

n....

n...

n...

nAs soon as he killed them, he got 3 notifications from the system notifying about his kills.

nWhen he looked at the Dead bodies found by the wolves, an idea struck his mind.

nHe went to the bodies and activated 'summon of the dead' on them.

nSoon 3 undead wolves stood up from the dead bodies.

n

"They look stronger than undead soldiers

", Ajax thought when he saw the 3 undead wolves standing in front of him.

n

" I will go look the other direction now

", with that he ran towards another direction. The two elemental spirits and 3 undead wolves and 1 undead soldier followed closely behind him.

nBy the time he went, the undead soldier already got destroyed into many pieces.

n

"Attack

", Ajax ordered his small army to attack the 7 wolves standing in front of him.

nNecros first used his skill to confuse them in attacking their own brethren, Volcanis used his fire blast. Then undead wolves and soldiers attacked the remaining survived wolves.

nAjax also killed one green-furred wolf.

n'Ding,

nSuccessfully Killed a peak grade rank 1 Spirit beast, Green furred wolf

n30 units of the essence of nature absorbed.

n'Ding,

nSuccessfully Killed a peak grade rank 1 Spirit beast, Green furred wolf

n30 units of the essence of nature absorbed...

n'Ding,

nSuccessfully Killed a peak grade rank 1 Spirit beast, Green furred wolf

n30 units of the essence of nature absorbed.

n'Ding,

nSuccessfully Killed a peak grade rank 1 Spirit beast, Green furred wolf

n30 units of the essence of nature absorbed...

n....

n....

n...

nAjax soon got 7 systems notifications which increased his essence of nature by 210 units.

n

"phew

", Ajax released a relaxed sigh when he killed all 7 wolves and checked his essence of nature.

n'Ding,

nThe essence of nature :- 441 units.

n

" Finally, I can reach level 5 now

", with that he used 400 units of the essence of nature to reach level 5.

n'Ding,

nBody cultivation :- Soldier (level:-5)

nneed 500 units of the essence of nature to reach level 6 body cultivation.

nAs soon as his level increased, he felt his muscles bulging a little.

n

"But, still I am not a match for these peak rank 1 spirit beasts

", Ajax muttered.

nOnly with the help of his summons, he can kill peak rank 1spirit beast. So his determination increased even more after seeing how weak he was.

n

"I will check how captain Edmond is fairing with their Alpha wolf

", Ajax didn't dare go near them, only looking from afar.

nEdmond battled with rank 5 green-furred wolf fiercely. His body was entirely covered in several wounds but that wolf was even more injured. Besides them, two rank 4 green-furred wolves lied lifelessly on the ground.

n

"Someone said something about killing me before any reinforcements arrive, Hehehe

", Edmond mocked that wolf with a chuckle.

n

" Human, please spare my life, I will be your slave and follow anything you say

", the rank 5 wolf said in a pitiful voice.

nAs soon as a spirit beast reaches rank 3, they can learn how to speak. Having reached rank 5, it values its life more, so it begged the human before it.

nEdmond didn't say anything and looked at the direction in which Ajax ran.

nAs soon as he let down his guard, the rank 5 beast jumped at him only to get killed with Edmond's sword.

n

"I never believe a spirit beast which begs for survival

", after killing it, Edmond ran towards the dense trees.

nBut even before he reached there, he saw Ajax without any life-threatening wounds.

nHe was relaxed to see Ajax unharmed.

n

"Ajax, how did you escape from their pursuit?

", Edmond asked puzzledly.

n

" I managed to hide climbing a tree and the wolves didn't even see me and went into another direction

", Ajax said a story that he had already prepared.

n

" Ok

", although Edmond doubted the story, but soon believed him because it's impossible to kill even one peak rank 1 spirit beast, what's more, there were a dozen wolves in his pursuit earlier. So he didn't ask any more about it.

nSoon remaining squad members also arrived and joined them.

n

"Hey Edmond, you took all the action leaving behind me

", Udo keenaxe shouted at Edmond jokingly.

n

" I was just lucky, that's all

", Edmond said laughing as he continued,

"Everyone collects the bodies of all wolves, while I take a short break after that we will search for its den, which may be nearby

", Edmond said, sitting cross-legged to meditate.

nSoon, they collected all the bodies into their space rings and waited for Edmond to recover.

n

"We will continue our search, now

", after recovering sometime, Edmond said to his squad members.

n
