Although it was already spring, the morning in the mountains was still a little cold. The sun that had just risen tried its best to emit light and heat, trying to dispel the slight chill. The dewdrops reflected the sunlight and shone with a dazzling light. Bugs were still waiting for the dew to dry. The forest was quiet, and only the sound of dew dripping on the ground could be heard from time to time.
A wolf king was walking quietly in the forest, not making a single sound.
He had killed a few humans in the past few days, but he had never found the ones he wanted to see.
There were traces of broken branches ahead. Who broke them? He hoped that it was a human. Then, he would have prey to hunt again.
The Wolf King walked to the broken branch and lowered his head to smell it out of habit, but he could not smell anything.
It seemed that although his eyes had recovered, his nose was really done for.
Thinking of this, the Wolf King was filled with anger. His strongest weapon was destroyed by a weak human just like that.
Losing his sense of smell made it much more difficult to find food. Fortunately, he had that magical power to help him, which greatly increased his strength and speed. Only then would he not starve to death because he could not catch his prey.
Thinking of the recent difficult days, the Wolf King could not suppress his anger. He could not help but move in the direction of the village.
He had to kill a few more humans to appease his anger.
After a while, the Wolf King hid behind a big tree on the top of the mountain and quietly monitored the village.
Suddenly, it saw a familiar figure walk out of the village.
It was him?
As the person got closer and closer, the Wolf King finally confirmed that it was that damned human.
Seeing Daley slowly climb up the hill, the Wolf King was so excited that his body trembled. He wanted to pounce on that damn human and bite his throat.
Calm down. If he went out now, that damned human would most likely run back to the village immediately. Although he was weak, he still had the ability to last for a while. Once he escaped back, it was very likely that he would never come out again. This human looked at the direction he was heading in. He was planning to enter the forest. As long as he was blocked in the depths of the forest, he would never be able to escape, so he had to stay calm.
After taking a few deep breaths of the still cold air, the Wolf King suppressed his impulse and quietly turned around to walk back into the forest.
Daley carefully walked to the top of the mountain and looked around carefully. After confirming that there were no wild beasts lying in ambush, he squatted down and observed the traces on the ground.
As expected, this was the place where the Wolf King was monitoring the village. The fresh footprints on the ground indicated that it was still standing here not long ago. It must have given up temporarily after discovering him, afraid that the place where it attacked him was too close to the village and that he would run back to the village.
Looking at the paw prints that extended into the forest, Daley took a deep breath and followed.
This was a battle between the hunter and the prey. However, who was the hunter and who was the prey?
Looking at the footprints extending into the depths of the forest, Daley still did not dare to relax. He carefully observed and listened to everything around him as he carefully advanced.
Suddenly, a warning sign flashed in Daley's mind. He quickly unsheathed his sword. At the same time, a gray shadow attacked from the left. With a cold shout, Daley swung his sword at the Wolf King.
The Wolf King ignored the sword that was coming at him. A golden light flashed on its body, and it opened its mouth to bite Daley.
With a crack, the long sword hit the Wolf King's body. As expected, the sword did not cut into its body. However, the long sword did not break like the Wolf King had expected. Instead, it sent the Wolf King flying.
With a bang, the Wolf King fell heavily to the ground.
The wolf king quickly got up and whimpered, looking at the sword in Daley's hand in surprise.
This sword seemed to be different from the last one.
The Wolf King pounced on Daley again, aiming at the direction where the sword was coming.
With a crack, the long sword was bitten by the wolf king, but it was still not broken.
Daley twisted his arm when he saw his sword being bitten.
The Wolf King felt a spinning force coming from the sword, causing his teeth to ache. He hurriedly let go of his mouth and jumped back.
Damn it. He had deliberately walked into the forest and retreated along the original footprints. He had ambushed behind the tree and launched this attack. He had thought that the damned human would be killed by this sneak attack, but it was ruined by his inexplicable sword. Fortunately, this sword still could not hurt him, so he still had a chance of winning.
The wolf king, who had calmed down, waved its claws and pounced again.
Daley blocked the Wolf King's tail in a sorry state, and his body swayed.
It was so tiring. The enemy attacked crazily without caring about anything, and he could only defend. It was too difficult.
Daley barely managed to swing his sword like a club and sent the Wolf King flying. He then took out a flying claw from his back and swung it upwards.
The flying claw hooked onto a branch, and Daley used both hands to climb up the tree.
The Wolf King, who did not expect the enemy to use this move, roared and ran to the tree. Its claws lit up with golden light and slapped the tree.
With a cracking sound, half of the tree trunk was corroded by the Wolf King's attack. With the Wolf King's push, it finally broke.
With a loud bang, the tree fell down, sending dust flying everywhere. The Wolf King jumped back to dodge the flying branches and soil. He was furious to see Daley swing his flying claw onto another tree before the tree fell.
The Wolf King didn't give up and ran over again, knocking down the big tree. However, before the tree fell, Daley moved to another tree.
After knocking down a few trees, the Wolf King helplessly realized that he was only wasting his soul power. There were too many trees in the forest, and he reckoned that he would not be able to push all of them in his entire life. When his strength was exhausted, that damned human could swagger away in front of him.
The wolf king no longer wasted his energy after thinking it through. He stared at Daley on the tree and whimpered.
Daley stood on a big branch, panting heavily. He took out a bag of dry food and ate it with the cold water he brought.
The Wolf King would not let him go, but its nose was broken. In order to prevent him from running away, it would never let him leave its sight. This way, it would not have time to hunt. However, he had to be on guard against the Wolf King toppling the tree at all times. He could not relax. Now, it was a battle between physical strength and mental strength.
The Wolf King sat on the ground. After watching Daley's actions for a while, he thought about it and walked behind a big tree.
Daley could no longer see the Wolf King. The two trees were not far apart. If the Wolf King suddenly rushed out from there and broke the big tree that Daley was resting on, there would not be much time left for Daley. Therefore, Daley could not relax for a second. The pressure was even greater than before.
Suddenly, Daley realized that the big tree where the Wolf King was hiding was falling towards him. Daley didn't expect the Wolf King to use this move. He hurriedly threw out the flying claw in his hand.
After seeing Daley throw out his flying claws, the Wolf King ran with all its might, using its fastest speed to run towards the big tree that Daley was about to move to.
A gray shadow flashed across the ground. When Daley's flying claws touched the tree, the Wolf King had already run to the tree and pushed with both claws.
Seeing that the Wolf King had cut off his path, Daley made a prompt decision. He immediately let go and slid down the tree he was hiding in.
After a series of clattering sounds, dust filled the air. Daly quickly ran in the opposite direction of the Wolf King after landing. When he ran out of the range of the dust fog, he saw the Wolf King coming from the other side.
Looking at the Wolf King who was staring at him coldly and approaching him step by step, Daley swallowed a mouthful of saliva, exhaled hard, and rushed over.
That's right. What he wanted to improve was his skills and wisdom in battle. He had come here for this. Therefore, he did not want to play any tricks. He just had to face it head-on. He had to face victory or death.
The two figures collided, flashed a few times, and then separated. There were two scratch marks on Daley's body, and blood slowly seeped out from the wounds.
The Wolf King turned around and looked at his opponent in surprise.
This human's speed seemed to have increased by quite a bit. Based on his speed and reaction when they first met, he should have been killed on the spot. However, it could also be that he was tired and his speed was a little slow. After all, pushing so many trees consumed a lot of his strength. But it didn't matter. He couldn't run away anymore.
With a low growl, the Wolf King pounced over again. Daley did not dodge and also went up to meet it.
The two figures crossed each other again and twisted. Blood flashed, and another wound appeared on Daley's back.
This human's speed had increased again. He had actually been slashed twice just now. Fortunately, he could not hurt him. However, it was over. He was injured again. If he did it a few more times, he would not have to bite him to death. He would bleed to death.
The two figures crossed paths for the third time. Daley's left hand was bitten, but fortunately, it wasn't bitten off.
Daley leaned on his sword and panted heavily. The wound on his back was burning with pain. He couldn't use his left hand for the time being. Sweat kept flowing down from his forehead, blurring his eyes, but he didn't have the chance to wipe it off.
The Wolf King's eyes revealed a cold expression as it pounced forward again.
This time, he would definitely be able to get rid of him!
Seeing the figure pouncing over, Daley staggered and went up to meet it.
It was very painful now, but the feeling was also very strange. His reaction, judgment, and speed had all been greatly improved. Perhaps, as long as he persevered this time or the next time, he would be able to break through. Therefore, he could not retreat. He could only advance. Only by moving forward could they have a chance of survival.
Stumbling away from the Wolf King's fatal blow, Daley had another wound on his left shoulder. When the two figures crossed paths, Daley suddenly felt a familiar power emerging from his body.
Soul power!
Delighted, Daley immediately mustered up his soul power and thrust his sword backward.
The Wolf King suddenly felt a chill on its hind legs, as if it had been cut open by something.
After landing, the Wolf King felt a pain in his leg and could not stand firm.
The Wolf King's heart sank when he saw the familiar golden light on the human's sword.
This human had also mastered that magical power. From now on, both sides were standing on the same starting line.
Should he run?
Wolf King considered.
If he ran, his foot would be injured, and he might not be able to outrun this human. However, he was also injured, so he might not chase. However, if he let go of this opportunity, it would be even more difficult to kill this human in the future.
The hesitant Wolf King saw Daley clenching his teeth and stumbling towards him. He made up his mind and went up to him.
His opponent was more seriously injured than him, but he did not run away. What was there to be afraid of? Did he have to wait until the next time, when the enemy was full of stamina and spirit, to fight again? He could not give up. Even if he died, he could not let go of this opportunity.
The two figures collided again. They flashed, twisted, and crossed each other.
The Wolf King whimpered, and two wounds appeared on its body. Daley also had a claw mark on his leg.
The injured man and beast did not stop. They turned around at the same time and limped towards each other.
With a swoosh, Daley's sword pierced into the Wolf King's chest, and the Wolf King's claws slashed across the side of his neck.
The Wolf King flew back and pulled his body out of the sword. Daley covered his neck and slowly fell to the ground. Blood flowed out from between his fingers.
He did not expect this ending.
Seeing Daley covered in blood and lying on the ground with his hands on his neck, the Wolf King knew that even if he didn't die immediately, he wouldn't be able to hold on for long. However, he didn't have much time to live either.
No matter what, he had finally gotten his revenge.
The Wolf King tried his best to move his feet and walked deeper into the forest. The blood that flowed out of his chest dripped onto the ground, forming dazzling blood flowers.
Next, he had to find a safe burial place for himself. He did not want to be like the leopard cat that he had eaten. After being eaten, it became someone else's source of energy.
Daley covered his neck and didn't dare to move.
His carotid artery had been cut open by the Wolf King. He could only press the wound to prevent the blood from flowing out too quickly. However, he could not hold on for long. He did not expect that after breaking through, what awaited him was still death.
Daley, who was thinking about this, felt his vitality draining away, and he couldn't help but fall asleep in a daze.
