Chapter 337: Back Attack

Translator: Simple MTL  Editor: Simple MTL

In his expectations, no matter how amazing the effects of the medicine were, it would at least take the next morning to recover. However, the current situation was something that Lugh had not expected.

Following that, Lugh carefully examined the specific condition of Big Mouth’s hind limbs. Soon after, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes. After confirming the specific condition of Big Mouth… He quickly deduced that the back limbs would completely recover in less than an hour or two. Such a recovery ability was really too astonishing.

Obviously, Lugh had underestimated the potential of the dragon race’s Fierce Beasts.

This discovery made Lugh very pleasantly surprised. For the Fly Dragon race, its strong six legs were its powerful weapon.

Each foot had a pair of grappling claws and pads at the end.

The claws were like pincers and could tear prey apart and grip the ground effectively.

The superior number and agility of its toes made it hopeless in close combat.

This was the main reason why Lugh gave priority to Big Mouth’s feet.

Compared to the recovery of the toes, the recovery of the Big Mouth’s antenna was very slow.

It would still take some time before the newborn antenna was fully grown.

As for the recovery of the beetle’s wings, Lugh was a little helpless.

In a day’s time, they did not find any items that could heal the Big Mouth’s wings.

However, this was already very good.

This was because the Wyvern, which was still in its infancy, needed to reach a certain level before it could be considered an adult.

And before it became an adult, the use of the insect’s wings could be said to be almost zero.

As long as it recovered to the rear limbs of the Wyvern, it could guarantee its main fighting strength.

Although the Wyvern was only level five, its fighting strength had already met the requirements of Lugh. Lugh decided to rest for a night before he could return to the carriage directly, in case something unexpected happened that he had expected.

At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew past the back of Lugh’s neck, causing his body to tremble.

“Roar!”

Big Mouth roared in anger, wanting to rush behind Lugh, who would have extreme reactions in the future.

A black shadow suddenly flashed out from the forest behind Lugh. Its speed was very fast, like a black afterimage arc, revealing a sharp talon that attacked Lugh’s neck.

Bang!

Big Mouth’s reaction was very timely. Just as Lugh was about to be cut off by the uninvited guest’s Talon, it blocked Lugh’s back first.

A blood-red stream of light appeared from Big Mouth’s body. Its body collided with the black shadow at high speed.

Following a muffled groan, the black shadow was directly knocked away.

Lugh quickly turned around and took out his dagger. His expression was a little ugly, but at the same time, his heart was palpitating,

Obviously, if it wasn’t for Big Mouth’s quick reaction, he would definitely have been injured.

When he saw the face of the enemy that was sent flying by Big Mouth, Lugh couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air.

“A Low-grade Platinum Shadow Wolf. No wonder it was able to take Big Mouth’s attack head on.” Lugh’s expression was cold as he looked at the wolf-type source beast that had gotten up and adjusted its posture.

He recognized this source beast. It was much more powerful and cunning than the dead Ash Wolf from before. It was one of the strongest predators in the outer region of the Forest of Despair.

[Race: Shadow Wolf]

[Attribute: Source Beast]

[Innate Ability: Wolf’s sense of smell, Bloodlust]

When the Shadow Wolf attacked him, Big Mouth knocked the other party away and saved Lugh.

Lugh was naturally very clear about the power of Big Mouth’s Dark Dragon Tear.

If a source beast with weak defense was hit by this move, it would instantly be torn into pieces by the force generated on Big Mouth’s body.

When Big Mouth used the Dark Dragon Tear, a stream of light with a powerful tearing force would be attached to his body.

However, this Shadow Wolf was different. It was not hit by the Dark Dragon Tear head-on. Instead, it used a move that the Shadow Wolves were most proficient in to skillfully avoid most of the damage.

That was Shadow Strike. It turned itself into a high-speed shadow and moved at a high speed within a short period of time to achieve the effect of surprise attack and dodge. It was a dark attribute skill.

The Shadow Wolf that learned this move was at least level 9 and above. This was also the reason why Lugh was able to determine the opponent’s level at a glance.

After Lugh carefully identified it, there was still a chance for this Shadow Wolf to defeat Big Mouth. After all, Big Mouth was still in his infant form.

It was not enough to defeat a Platinum-grade Fierce Beast.

However, if it was this Low-grade Platinum Shadow Wolf, Lugh was still confident that he could defeat it.

The pure black fur of the Shadow Wolf made it easier for it to blend into the environment of the night. The pair of green eyes of the wolf in the night stared at the guy who ruined its good deed.

Then, the dark Shadow Wolf revealed its two half-meter long fangs and let out a deep growl. This was its warning sound as it prepared to attack.

Its appearance was not much different from an ordinary source beast of the wolf clan. In fact, it could even be said that it was even thinner and smaller. Its pure black fur made it easier for the dark Shadow Wolf to hide in the darkness. The two long fangs at the corner of its mouth… It made it look extremely fierce.

Other than its beast attribute, the Shadow Wolf clan was also born with an affinity for the dark attribute’s source energy.

Being able to display strange dark attribute moves, coupled with its ghostly speed, was definitely the enemy that Beast Masters in the wild were most unwilling to encounter.

Fortunately, the Shadow Wolf wasn’t a common source beast. It was a group animal.

Otherwise, there would be no bones left of Lugh tonight.

This Shadow Wolf that tried to sneak attack Lugh was the strongest source beast that Lugh had encountered today. Although it was not as slow as the one from the previous day, the trap that Lugh had prepared was the key to defeating the enemy.

The reason why Lugh and Big Mouth were able to defeat the Hundred-Eyed Rock was not surprising in the beginning. They had targeted the speed flaw that Hundred-Eyed Rock was not good at.

In addition, they had already prepared a trap to defeat the enemy.

But the Shadow Wolf was different. Not to mention its lack of speed, its individual speed was its most powerful weapon.

Facing such a swift and fierce opponent with no obvious weakness, Lugh didn’t dare to be careless.

“Awooo!”

Along with an arrogant howl, the Shadow Wolf’s green eyes locked onto Big Mouth in front of it. In its eyes, this bug was even more dangerous than that human.

It moved!

The Shadow Wolf directly rushed towards Big Mouth.

Under the cover of the night, the Shadow Wolf’s figure that was running at high speed became difficult to detect.

In the absence of fire, if one did not try hard to observe, it was very easy to lose the Shadow Wolf’s trace.

Compared to the Shadow Wolf, it had a unique advantage at night.

Big Mouth was limited in its ability to display its strength.

The Fly Dragon Wyvern clan had the fly clan’s insect clan compound eyes, which had extremely strong dynamic vision. However, such an erection had a very obvious weakness, which was that in the dark of the night, it would lose most of its performance.

In the dark of the night, the Wyvern’s insect clan compound eyes’ visual range and observation ability would be greatly reduced.

If it was an ordinary low intelligence Wyvern, it was probably because of this disadvantage that it was directly killed by the Shadow Wolf hiding in the darkness.

But Big Mouth was, after all, a source beast with high potential for the development of the dragon race, it wasn’t something that the weak insect race source beasts could compare to.

Clang!

As the Shadow Wolf quickly approached Big Mouth and quickly extended its front claws, ready to tear apart its prey, the Shadow Wolf that had been waiting for a long time entered its own visual range and used its hook claws to block the attack in time.

It was only two of Big Mouth’s six toes that blocked the attack of the Shadow Wolf’s Hook Claw.

Other than the two toes that had not fully recovered, the other two toes quickly attacked.

The scarlet source energy was swinging under Big Mouth’s claw.

It formed a deep red source energy claw mark in the air.

Bloody Claw.

While the Shadow Wolf was still struggling, Big Mouth grabbed this Bloody Claw that was more than ten times more powerful.

A trace of anger flashed in the Shadow Wolf’s eyes, but soon, its figure turned into a shadow.

It quickly dodged to the back.

Before Big Mouth’s Bloody Claw could touch the Shadow Wolf’s black fur, it decisively used Shadow Strike to escape and chose to temporarily dodge the attack.

In the first exchange, neither side effectively injured it.

Although neither side’s attacks were successful, in reality, it was the Shadow Wolf that suffered a huge loss.

When the battle level was four levels higher and they had the advantage of the environment.

The first attack of the easy chair had already lost.

This would have a certain impact on the morale of both sides.

After knowing that they would not be able to gain an advantage in close combat.

The Shadow Wolf opened its mouth and gathered its dark attribute source energy. Countless black source energy balls gradually gathered towards the mouth of the Shadow Wolf.

Slowly, they merged into a half-meter-long shadow energy sphere.
