Amber Sword-Chapter 810 - 139: Male Wolf (Second Watch)

Brand was too lazy to deal with the spoiled noble daughter, so he looked up carefully in the direction of the black wolf pack. As soon as Wade's centaur guards retreated, those black wolves indeed became restless.

In just a moment, these beasts gathered around—eleven Black Wolf Lords moved like sharks in the black tide, maneuvering at a distance, driving their kind forward with the intention to surround them.

Brand was not polite; at first, to avoid attracting too much attention, he had hidden the summoned Wind Spirit Spiders in the forest on one side. However, with a wave of his hand, over two hundred golden points of light immediately rose densely from the forest, soaring into the sky like bombers, diving toward the black wolves, each dive forming a golden beam of light.

This time, Brand didn't hold back his firepower, directly unleashing a full round of attacks. Over a hundred light beams flickered incessantly in the night, each flicker turning several black wolves into ashes.

He watched expressionlessly as the experience numbers flowed down his retina like a waterfall, impressive in appearance but not substantial in reality.

However, the source of these experiences manifested on the battlefield, a bit outrageous.

The golden beams, at their densest, nearly wove into a vast net. Under Brand's command, the light web gradually extended further, with any black wolf passing through it igniting and turning into a brilliant flame, forming a dazzling expanse of shimmering spots in the wolf pack.

The burning black wolves continued moving forward but became tar-like burning masses after a few steps, repeating this process numerous times until the light web flickered slightly and then disappeared.

The entire process lasted just a blink of an eye.

In the next moment, Wade and his centaurs halted simultaneously. These Centaur Elder Guards had witnessed the fiercest battles in the Black Forest and even fought against Earth Dragons. Yet this time, they couldn't help but gasp.

From their standing position, extending nearly a hundred feet forward—

The once densely packed black wolf pack had vanished, leaving only a bare expanse of charred ash.

In what seemed like the span of a breath, hundreds, if not thousands, of black wolves were reduced to dust. Even the monstrous black wolves from afar, faced with such a terrifying offensive, hesitated to advance.

5250 experience points.

Brand remained unmoved, once again paying 2 Earth Elements to replenish the Holy Sword Skill's expenditure. Above, the Wind Spirit Spiders lit up in the air, seemingly waiting for the Black Wolf Lords' next move.

But the black wolves continued to hesitate.

"Hurry and advance!" Brand heard Wade shouting orders to his subordinates from afar. Indeed, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

But Brand was not aiming for that goal.

He raised his head, his gaze stretching past the black waves to the foggy regions beyond the battlefield.

Beside him, Tree Elf Leader Queniel was also looking in that direction—

"There's a Head Wolf," Queniel said.

Brand nodded; the wolf pack's reactions indicated this point unmistakably. He used the Holy Sword Skill not to carve out a path through the black wolf's tide-like offensive—that was the task of Centaur Elder Wade—but to observe the wolves' responses.

However, the black wolves' reactions seemed quite 'reasonable.'

Yet Brand understood that true monsters don't behave this way. Monsters are beings twisted by magic power, and especially low-tier monsters like black wolves are furious and lack rationality. They wouldn't retreat due to an attack—rather than viewing them as individual entities, they should be seen as a whole.

Wounded black wolves only become more furious.

But they retreated.

This indicated the black wolves were deliberately avoiding harm—the only ones capable of this were the Head Wolves among them—the male wolves. Because male wolves possess intelligence akin to that of adult humans, they consciously command the pack to reduce losses.

However, this logical reaction exposed the presence of a king among the wolf pack. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

In just a moment after.

The foggy battlefield suddenly echoed with a prolonged howl that differed from the average black wolf, resounding and mournful, as if to announce something.

"It knows we discovered it," Queniel's expression changed slightly as he lowered the longbow and whispered.
