“Awooo!”
The wolf’s howl continued, seemingly losing interest in Cullen and the others. They turned their heads and began to focus on guard against Moss and Alan.
Alan saw that the Explosive Wolf only howled and did not rush over immediately. He was slightly relieved.
Next, he saw Cullen’s team was about to leave after discussing themselves.
Alan could not help but exclaim, “What are Cullen and the others trying to do? Aren’t they going to save their teammates?”
Crack!
A crisp sound rang out. The teammates that Cullen and the others had abandoned had their necks snapped by the Explosive Wolf, and they instantly collapsed to the ground without making a sound.
Although several members of Cullen’s team wanted to turn around to investigate, they did not stop in the end. They walked into the depths of the dense forest with Cullen.
“Cullen’s team abandoned their teammate who was attacked.” Alan shook his head and was very disdainful of Cullen’s behavior.
Moss also looked down on Cullen’s behavior, but he did not say anything. He had already labeled Cullen as a despicable person in his heart.
The conflict between him and Cullen would definitely not be so simple. It was not suitable to take action during the school test. Still, there would be plenty of opportunities to resolve it in the future. There was no need to tangle with him so much now.
At this moment, Moss suddenly felt that there seemed to be some unusual existence approaching from the nearby forest.
“Alan, come over here. There seems to be something bad approaching from nearby.”
Alan now had 100% trust in Moss’s words.
This was the first time he had heard Moss’s solemn reminder since entering the Mystic Realm. Hence, he quickly realized that something was wrong.
He quickly shrank to Moss’s side and asked, “Moss, did you feel something?”
Whoosh!
Without waiting for Moss’s response, a vast gray figure shot out from behind Moss and attacked with a piercing sound.
“Guardian Shield!”
Moss heard the sound of the wind and raised his Guardian Shield the moment he realized that his back was attacked.
A transparent light flashed behind his head and instantly appeared between him and the attacker.
Bang!
A muffled sound was heard. The attacker and Guardian Shield collided.
Moss and Alan quickly turned around to check the situation. Still, they were surprised to find that the attacker did not crash onto the shield this time, like previously.
The attacking Magical Beast actually relied on its unique reaction ability to step on the shield the moment the shield was erected, preventing itself from crashing onto it. Then, it borrowed force from the shield and leaped out.
Moss and Alan turned around and saw the beast leaping. Alan could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. Even Moss frowned.
What appeared in front of them was actually a Level-5 Explosive Wolf.
Level-5 Magical Beasts had truly broken away from their peers. They had entered a powerful range that exceeded common sense.
The Level-5 Explosive Wolf in front of Moss and Alan was clearly within this range.
It had a pale silver-gray overall color, a body size more than a circle more significant than the other low-level Explosive Wolves.
Not only that, what was even more strange was that its legs were abnormally thick. Its muscles were coiled up and clearly well-developed.
When the Level-5 Explosive Wolf appeared, the lower-level Explosive Wolves immediately stopped howling and surrounded Moss and Alan.
Moss and the Level-5 Explosive Wolf were in a stalemate. Alan hurriedly took out his sword and small shield to face the other Explosive Wolves.
At this time, Alan and Moss also reacted. These low-level Explosive Wolves must have summoned reinforcements after seeing that Moss could quickly kill a Level 3-companion. Their reinforcement was this Level-5 Explosive Wolf.
“Moss, what do we do now?” Seeing that the situation was critical, Alan hurriedly asked Moss beside him.
Moss tightened the sword in his hand. With a sharp gaze, he calmly replied, “Face the enemy head-on! Alan, let’s change positions. You pay attention to protect yourself with the Guardian Shield. I want to use those low-level Explosive Wolves to level up.”
Alan immediately understood what Moss meant. His eyes slowly widened, and he was shocked.
Alan would probably laugh at Moss for overestimating his abilities if it were anyone else. However, after witnessing Moss’ formidable battle record, Alan could only agree.
It would still be challenging to deal with a Level-5 Explosive Wolf with Moss’s current strength.
Only by eliminating all the low-level Explosive Wolves behind him, gaining experience, and fighting for more levels would he be able to defeat the strongest wolf.
Alan also knew very well that this plan had a fatal weakness. When Moss went to fight against the low-level Explosive Wolves, he would be in a situation where no one could protect him.
What was even more dangerous was that he might face the threat of a Level-5 Explosive Wolf on his own. However, at this moment, he chose to trust Moss’ judgment without holding back.
He nodded and agreed. “Okay!”
Alan did not hesitate and immediately switched positions with Moss. Relying on the Guardian Shield, he confronted the Level-5 Explosive Wolf in front of him.
Looking at the tall and majestic wolf in front of him, Alan silently swallowed his saliva.
“Moss, you have to be fast.”
Even without Alan’s reminder, Moss already knew the hidden risks when he thought of this idea.
At this moment, Moss didn’t hesitate at all. He had just changed his position and stood steadily. Then, he directly dashed out.
“Explosive Strike!”
To pursue the most efficient slaughter, Moss immediately activated his skill and attacked.
The low-level Explosive Wolves had long been paying attention to Moss’s movements. At this moment, when they saw Moss’s actions, they immediately dodged.
Although Moss was not yet a match for the Level-5 Explosive Wolf, he was definitely stronger than the lower-level ones.
A cold light instantly lit up a Level-3 Explosive Wolf’s horrified face with a swing of Moss’ sword.
