nScarlet blood formed a river, and its pungent smell enshrouded the village entrance!
n
n
nTwenty or thirty strong men held the city walls and continued to kill the beasts, but the beasts seemed to be endless—they kept coming, and the men continued to kill. However, the beast tide still showed no sign of dying down!
n
n
nThe guards gradually got tired, and their combat effectiveness continued to decline. Soon, the situation became unfavorable for the guards!
n
n
n“This won’t do. We’ll fail to hold on sooner or later!”
n
n
n“Captain, hurry up and find a way to kill that Fire Wolf! Otherwise, the beast tide won’t die down!”
n
n
nWhen Hudders, who was entangled in a fierce battle with the Fire Wolf King, heard his subordinates’ shouts, he became extremely anxious. He knew that the root of the beast tide not dying down was this Fire Wolf King!
n
n
nIt was very likely the beast tide’s leader!
n
n
nIf the Fire Wolf King didn’t die, the beast tide wouldn’t die down!
n
n
nThe problem was he was unable to kill the Fire Wolf King. He had actually been at a disadvantage in the battle with the Fire Wolf King!
n
n
nKilling the Fire Wolf King was but a dream, so Hudders could only be anxious inside!
n
n
nIn comparison, Meng Lei, on the other side, achieved repeated successes!
n
n
n“Ding! 1 Green-Scaled Python killed, 20 gold coins gained!”
n
n
n“Ding! Dropped item discovered. Will you pick it up?”
n
n
n“Ding! 1 Wind Wolf killed, 18 gold coins gained!”
n
n
nIn less than 10 minutes, Meng Lei had killed 5 beasts in succession and accumulated hundreds of gold coins. At the same time, he had also picked up 4 light balls, including 4 Physical Body Constitution light balls and 1 Spirit light ball!
n
n
nHis attributes were quietly changing!
n
n
nHost: Meng Lei
n
n
nRace: Human
n
n
nWealth: 108 gold coins
n
n
nPhysical Body Constitution: Trainee Warrior (20
/100)
n
n
nSpirit: Normal Human Being (5
/10)
n
n
nMagic Power: 0 (0
/10)
n
n
nSpell(s): Fireball Technique
n
n
nSurprisingly, his physical body constitution had received a fortyfold increase from the initial 0.5 to 20!
n
n
nHis Spirit had received a fivefold increase from the initial 1 to 5!
n
n
nAs for his Wealth, he now had 108 gold coins!
n
n
nThis wasn’t a small amount!
n
n
nOne had to know that the spending of an ordinary villager of Magical Beast Village was just a few gold coins, and 108 gold coins would be enough for them to spend for 2 to 3 years!
n
n
nAll of this happened in only a quarter of an hour!
n
n
nI’m this much stronger!
n
n
nThis system is so buggy!
n
n
nWhen sensing the strong powers that were about to gush out of his body, Meng Lei had an urge to look up at the sky and laugh.
n
n
nWith such a buggy cheating device, it’d be hard for me to not be awesome!
n
n
n“Ahhh!”
n
n
nAt that moment, a scream of pain echoed. Hudders was seen flying out backward, smashing against the village walls, and knocking out a hole in it. His chest was a charcoal black, and his clothes were also on fire. He was clearly hit by a fireball!
n
n
n“Captain!!!”
n
n
n“Are you alright, captain!”
n
n
n“Captain, how are you…”
n
n
nThis sudden scene frightened all the guards. Their captain was a Second-Grade Warrior, and he was actually injured by the hit of a First-Grade Magical Beast! How was this possible!?
n
n
nRoar!
n
n
nAfter one successful hit, the Fire Wolf King walked step by step toward Hudders, elegantly. Fire-elemental magical substances gathered in its mouth, and a fireball was in formation! It was going to launch a fatal blow to kill Hudders completely!
n
n
n“Captain!”
n
n
n“Protect the captain!”
n
n
n“Beast, stay away from the captain!”
n
n
nThe guards revealed shocked expressions, but they all rushed toward the Fire Wolf King, roaring angrily!
n
n
n“Don’t come here!!!” Hudders yelled hoarsely, “Leave me be! Do your own duty! Don’t let the beast tide destroy the walls!”
n
n
n“Captain!”
n
n
nThe guards’ eyes were blood-red!
n
n
n“Don’t you even listen to me now?” Captain Hudders struggled and stood up. “Everyone, guard the wall. This beast is mine to take!”
n
n
n“Captain!!!”
n
n
nThe guards’ eyes were red, but they dared not disobey their captain’s order. Captain Hudders had an extremely high reputation in Magical Beast Village, and nobody dared to question his words!
n
n
n“Beast, come here if you dare!”
n
n
nCaptain Hudders’s face was grim. His huge sword pointed toward the Fire Wolf King, and he roared furiously!
n
n
nRoar!
n
n
nThe Fire Wolf King released a low roar, opened its mouth, and spat out the fireball!
n
n
n“Beast, come here, I’m not afraid of you!”
n
n
nHudders looked at the high-temperature fireball coming right at his face and held the huge sword in his hand, his eyes full of determination. “Since it’s come to this, I’ll have to fight with my life by burning Battle Aura…”
n
n
nBoom!
n
n
nThe fireball was shot over at high speed and was about to hit Captain Hudders when another fireball suddenly shot out from the side! It hit the Fire Wolf King’s fireball accurately!
n
n
nThe two fireballs collided together and exploded!
n
n
nThe fire blasted into the sky, while sparks spattered and dust flew around them. The surroundings were in a mess!
n
n
n“What’s going on?
n
n
nHudders froze!
n
n
nThe guards froze!
n
n
nThe Fire Wolf King also froze!
n
n
nA fireball?
n
n
nWhere did the fireball come from?
n
n
n“Captain Hudders, kill it first!” shouted Meng Lei, pointing at the Fire Wolf!
n
n
n“Little Meng Lei?” Hudders was stunned, but when he saw the fingers of Meng Lei’s right hand, his whole body felt a shock. “Flames? You actually know how to use magic?”
n
n
nA pinch of hot, red flame was swaying on the tips of Meng Lei’s fingers, releasing an astonishing heat. Nobody would dare to doubt the terrible energy contained in this small flame at all!
n
n
n“Captain Hudders, let’s talk about everything after finishing off this Fire Wolf!”
n
n
nMeng Lei could understand Captain Hudders’s feelings, but this wasn’t the time for an explanation at all. The top priority was to kill the Fire Wolf and stop the beast tide!
n
n
nCaptain Hudders nodded hard. “You’re right, we’ll kill this beat first! Go to the back and use magic to sneak attack and constrain this beast’s movement. I’ll take it head-on. We’ll kill this beast together!”
n
n
nAfter he finished speaking, Hudders used his final strength and rushed forward!
n
n
nThis time, Captain Hudders saw hope, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit. He rushed with big strides in front of the Fire Wolf King and swung his huge sword instantly, aiming for the Fire Wolf King’s head!
n
n
nRoar!
n
n
nThe Fire Wolf King let out a low roar, scratched the ground with four claws, and retreated. If this had happened earlier, it could have easily jumped away and spewed out a fireball, attacking while dodging!
n
n
nUnfortunately, this time, when the Fire Wolf King just jumped up, a fireball flew over forcefully through the air, striking right at the Fire Wolf King’s abdomen!
n
n
nBoom!
n
n
nThe fireball exploded instantly, and like a detonated grenade, it released a fiery flame!
n
n
nHowl!
n
n
nThe Fire Wolf King howled, and its waist arched!
n
n
n“A good opportunity!”
n
n
nCaptain Hudders fixed his gaze, his right foot kicked on the ground, and then he dashed like a flash of lightning. A faint earth-brown halo covered the surface of the huge sword as it stabbed out forcefully!
n
n
nPfft—
n
n
nBlood oozed out wildly, and the Fire Wolf howled!
n
n
n“Slash again!”
n
n
