"Perhaps it's time to take action, but I'm afraid that guy might already be dead at the hands of the Wolf King!" The Cat glanced around at the others, pouting as he muttered.
Wen Changqing immediately exploded in anger upon hearing this, "Shut up!!!" However, Wood, his companion and a seasoned veteran, stopped him with a serious shake of his head.
While others merely thought Ye Kai was impressive, only he understood the overwhelming strength of that man who always wore a gentle smile and remained extraordinarily calm.
Wood signaled to Liu Changshan and the others, his eyes subtly conveying a sense of vigilance. Then he turned to Nerun with an unusually serious tone, "Mr. Nerun, this bridge absolutely cannot be blown up. We must wait for our companions; I believe you understand what I mean."
"Don't worry, I won't give up until the last moment," Nerun reassured the only girl in their team.
However, he was also deeply conflicted. On one hand, it felt excessive to leave just like that and even blow up the bridge after Ye Kai's 'righteousness.' On the other hand, he was genuinely terrified of the Wolf King.
That guy was simply not human; no, he wasn't human at all but rather a monster from ancient Eastern legends!
Every time he thought of that transformation and its terrifying power, he felt a chill run down his spine.
Farou was murmuring something with his eyes closed, seemingly holding a staff as he directed a solidification spell at the wooden bridge connecting to White Line Gorge.
If he were to utter a single magical syllable now, this dilapidated wooden bridge, already stabilized by the solidification spell, would completely shatter. This would temporarily stop the Wolf King.
Yet faced with the Contractor who was willing to hold off the werewolves for their escape, he felt deep admiration.
Of course, admiration aside, if Nerun weren't there beside him, he might have already shattered the bridge and rushed to Cyfreck Monastery.
The Cat paced back and forth anxiously. As the only girl in this team, she felt utterly powerless against the Wolf King; her eyes were filled with extreme fear.
Listening to the occasional sounds of explosions and roars coming from across the mountain, it wasn't just her who felt a chill; all the survivors were increasingly hesitant to act recklessly.
However, due to their trust in Nerun and the newcomer Ye Kai, everyone watched the other side of the wooden bridge with complex emotions filled with anticipation.
Wood carefully observed the expressions of the crowd at that moment. He noticed no signs of danger and no one seemed inclined to rush forward and destroy the wooden bridge, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, trust your brother Ye. He managed to escape unscathed during the Volcanic Eruption; this is just a show of force from the werewolves," Wood said softly to the anxious Wen Changqing.
Wen Changqing understood that worrying was pointless. He took a deep breath, suppressing his anxiety as he nodded.
He had the utmost trust in this brother who came from the same world, the same city, and even the same building.
Moreover, each of them had received care from Ye Kai; not to mention his formidable skills that often turned peril into safety while also yielding considerable rewards.
This kind of favor was incomparable to others, even Liu Changshan and the others were starting to feel anxious.
...
"Not bad, not bad, very good!"
The young man transformed from the Wolf King walked slowly towards the mountain peak with a red longsword in hand. A hint of admiration appeared on his handsome face. "Aside from that masked kid, you are the first one who could withstand my pressure and still fight back."
"It's just a pity that you're going to die here today!"
Ye Kai opened his mouth wide and laughed heartily while nodding. "Although I don't understand where your confidence comes from, I really want to say: I bought a watch last year!"
Seeing the look on his face that seemed to say 'you're quite impressive, I have high hopes for you,' he was actually burning with anger inside. If it weren't for being sealed by the gods and having most of his power restricted, he would have wanted to catch Alpha Wolf and guard his home!
"I bought a watch last year? What does that mean?" A look of confusion suddenly appeared on Wolf King's otherwise calm face.
Ye Kai felt a mix of amusement and frustration. No wonder wolves were so suspicious; he was merely teasing, yet it had sparked doubt and wariness in his opponent. What was that all about?
He had heard stories suggesting that if one encountered a wolf in the wild, they should engage in strange actions to confuse it, buying themselves precious time to escape. And now, he found himself in just such a situation.
Suddenly, a massive fireball erupted from the sky on the other side of the mountain. Ye Kai couldn't help but feel elated; he didn't want to confront the Wolf King directly. The sword in the Wolf King's hand was far too bizarre, akin to a magical artifact from a fantasy tale—terrifying indeed.
"Hmm!? Are you stalling for time?"
The Wolf King's expression shifted dramatically as his eyes transformed into golden slits, an aura of murderous intent radiating from him. Above his head, he morphed into a towering Golden-Furred Giant Wolf, standing over ten meters tall.
Behind him, several other immense presences surged forth, each exuding a mental pressure slightly less formidable than his own. This was a change in momentum that only someone with exceptionally strong Mental Power could vaguely perceive.
"Die!!!"
"Idiot!" Ye Kai realized that the Wolf King was engulfed in Killing Intent. Without hesitation, he waved his hands repeatedly, unleashing dozens of Grenades like splashes of water.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Dust and shockwaves rolled through the air as flames and debris scattered everywhere. The entire mountain path was flattened by this barrage, sending countless boulders tumbling down the mountainside with tremendous force.
After throwing out another wave of Grenades, Ye Kai decided to stick to their agreed signal and sprinted down the mountain path. His speed surged to its limit as he occasionally tossed more Grenades behind him.
"Roar!!!"
At that moment, the Wolf King was filled with a mix of shock and fury. Even as he witnessed the multitude of rolling stones, an icy chill gripped his heart.
He was not afraid, but he did not know how many of the young men he brought with him would be able to escape!
This thought made him tremble with rage. He swung his crystal longsword, unleashing dozens of sword lights that shattered numerous rolling stones. Then, with a roar that shook the ground, his eyes bloodshot, he charged forward.
"Quick, cut the wooden bridge!"
As soon as Ye Kai saw the few people waiting at the other end of the bridge, he couldn't help but shout, "Mages, unleash your full power and block the Wolf King together!"
Wood watched Ye Kai move with lightning speed. His Dual Eyes suddenly narrowed, and in response to Farou's puzzled gaze, he immediately spoke up, "Hurry! My companion never does anything without confidence!"
"Howl!!!"
At that moment, everyone suddenly spotted a golden-furred giant wolf over ten meters tall, somewhat ethereal, rapidly approaching from the other side of the mountain.
Seeing this scene, Farou shuddered all over, cold sweat soaking his back. He waved his staff, and a grayish-white light fell forward. The wooden bridge, which had been magically solidified into stone, suddenly began to crack with a series of snapping sounds.
"Boom!"
With a muffled sound, the entire bridge began to collapse massively. Just then, Ye Kai let out a furious shout and stomped down on a protruding boulder beneath him, shattering it.
In an instant, he transformed into a blur, using the remaining stone surface of the bridge to leap nearly a hundred meters in a flash.
"Bang!"
Just as he landed, an orange fireball taller than a person crashed down with a thunderous roar, momentarily blocking the Wolf King.
In that brief moment, he found himself unable to cross the hundred-meter ravine.
“Roar!!!”
The Wolf King looked at the mountain peak a hundred meters away, his violent aura surging once again. His Dual Eyes turned a deep crimson, like blood. “Damn bugs, don’t think you can escape. I will find you again, and I won’t rest until you’re dead!!!”
“Not resting until you’re dead!!!”
“Not resting until you’re dead!!!”
…
Watching the Wolf King howl with unrestrained murderous intent, Ye Kai couldn’t help but smirk. He didn’t care about the threats; if it came down to it, he could simply break the seal and enter the Nightmare Space under a different identity.
Although this approach was somewhat counterproductive and likely to attract the attention of Nightmare Space, if it really came to that, he would definitely beat the Alpha Wolf half to death and then teach him a lesson.
“Let’s go! This guy will definitely not let this go easily!”
Ye Kai glanced at Wen Changqing and the others, who were showing signs of joy, and immediately spoke up. “We can’t waste any more time. We need to catch up with the main force and complete our mission as soon as possible.”
“Oh no!”
At that moment, Farou suddenly turned pale and exclaimed, “Does anyone remember the storyline? We’re in the Tormented Forest! Although there are only some ordinary Demonized wild wolves in the plot, I’ve heard that there are also very nasty Corpse Demons, vampires, Sewing Monsters, witches…”
“Damn!!! Let’s go! If Beiman and the others run into trouble, we’re all finished!”
Nerun’s face also changed dramatically as he turned without hesitation and started running down the path.
“Swift Technique, activate!”
With a wave of Farou's staff, a dozen beams of light split off and fell at everyone's feet, instantly boosting their speed by nearly half. He himself seemed to transform into a wisp of breeze, crossing a distance of twenty to thirty meters in the blink of an eye.
"The aura of darkness is so dense, and that chaotic mental energy is back ahead! Things are getting uneasy!" Ye Kai raced alongside Nerun.
"Could it be that Black-Red Flame Bird again?" Nerun's expression changed slightly as he hurriedly asked, "Is it true that you can't kill those Black-Red Flame Birds?"
A glint of cold light flashed in Ye Kai's eyes. He was certain that the aura represented that very thing, and he immediately replied, "There's no doubt about it. Even if you turn them into mush, it won't matter. As long as that chaotic and twisted mental energy field isn't broken, they are immortal."
"Damn!!!"
Nerun cursed through gritted teeth, "This mission world is truly disgusting. Ever since we took on this task, nothing has gone smoothly. Strange occurrences keep piling up, as if we've stirred up a hornet's nest!"
Ye Kai shrugged and ignored him. The Nightmare Space was definitely not a place for the faint-hearted. With so many external forces appearing, it would be strange if the difficulty of the mission didn't increase in some way!
In the film Witching Season, what seemed simple on the surface actually had a terrifyingly grand background upon closer inspection. There were plenty of legendary elements involved.
During this time, he had already experienced the plots of Night Transmission: The Rise of the Wolf Clan and Witching Season. Even if there were more grand narratives added, he wouldn't be too surprised.
Although he had avoided an unknown Wolf King, the one manipulating the Black-Red Flame Bird had yet to reveal their true identity!
Ahead, the mist thickened further, obscuring the path…
