“Howl!”

Two Level-1 Explosive Wolves charged at Moss and Alan head-on.

Under the assault of Cullen’s team, they did not forcefully return to defend. Instead, they charged at the position of Moss and Alan, who were weaker.

The two wolves simultaneously stared at Moss, who was standing at the front of the team. They opened their bloody mouths and pounced.

Their attacks were quite organized. One attacked the front while the other pounced on the lower path. If it were an ordinary student who had just awakened his class, they would be at a loss.

Seeing that the wolf’s attack was about to reach Moss, Cullen, who had broken out of the encirclement and chased after the Explosive Wolves, could not help but smile a little wider.

As long as the Explosive Wolf was entangled with Moss and Alan, the number of wolves chasing after them would decrease, and his chances of being rescued would significantly rise.

He had long had a grudge with Moss and Alan. Now that he saw the two of them being attacked, he even vaguely hoped that they would be beaten up badly. That way, he could buy some time, and their miserable state would also make him happy.

However, Cullen was suddenly stunned. He saw a scene that he could not believe.

Moss pulled out his sword and moved forward. A sword light flew out, followed by a rain of blood. The two wolves were easily split into two!

Alan was the only present who could barely maintain his calm because he had witnessed a similar experience. The rest of Cullen’s team and the wolves were shocked at what they saw. They couldn’t figure out what had happened at that moment.

When they looked at Moss, they saw that Moss was still coldly waving his sword and staring at them. His eyes were full of killing intent, and there was blood everywhere. Cullen and the wolves behind him could not help but tremble.

Cullen was frightened by Moss’ sword. When he felt that Moss’ eyes were locked on him, it made his hair stand on end.

How could Moss be so assertive? Didn’t he only awaken a Knight class?

Cullen’s heart was filled with questions after seeing Moss’ stunning strike. He couldn’t help but stop.

However, it was only a pause. Soon, Cullen once again sprinted forward. He couldn’t stop or retreat now. Not only would the wolves attack him, but Moss wouldn’t possibly allow him to do so right now.

“Let’s speed up and rush over!” Cullen shouted.

“Don’t be afraid. Moss wouldn’t dare to attack us directly. Our actions can be explained, but if he dares to attack us, there’s no room for an explanation!”

Cullen’s shout was deafening. Not only did he and his teammates hear it, but Moss and Alan too— this was his goal.

Not only was he cheering for himself and his teammates, but he was also reminding Moss not to do anything stupid. To his surprise, Moss didn’t respond after he shouted.

Cullen couldn’t help but hide inside the team again. Soon, Cullen’s team and Moss brushed past each other.

The distance between them in the jungle was not far, and Moss had killed the wolf between the two teams, so they were no longer in the way.

The moment they brushed past each other, all the members of the Cullen team could not help but be on tenterhooks.

They were afraid that Moss would suddenly rise up and directly kill them like he killed the wolves.

They did not have the speed of the Explosive Wolf. Even the Explosive Wolf could not dodge Moss’ fatal attack, so what chance would they have?

Fortunately, although Moss was staring at them coldly, he didn’t make a move. Instead, he let them pass by him.

The reason why Moss didn’t kill Cullen and the others was simple. Although Cullen was annoying, it would bring Moss a lot of trouble if he directly attacked him here.

Moreover, even if Cullen and his team died in this Mystic Realm, they could still be resurrected on the field outside. Moss’ attack would not cause any actual harm.

If he wanted to target Cullen, attacking him now would not be worth it. Therefore, Moss judged that now was not the best time to take revenge on Cullen.

Although he could not take revenge directly, he could still find some trouble for them in the future.

Behind Cullen and the others, a large group of Explosive Wolves suddenly attacked. They could not distinguish the conflicts between humans.

They only saw that Moss had killed their partner, and now he was blocking their way to chase their prey. It was apparent that he was the enemy.

However, due to the power of Moss’ sword, the wolves did not dare to attack. This time, two Level-2 and Level-3 Explosive Wolves were separated from the group chasing Cullen, while the rest continued to pursue.

Moss chose to focus on his enemy. He had never seen a Level-3 Explosive Wolf before.

So far, Moss had killed a total of five Level-1 and two Level-2 Explosive Wolves. His class level had also reached Level-2.

Therefore, although he had never confronted a Level-3 wolf before, he was not afraid. After all, the difference in strength between the two sides was not particularly exaggerated.

The three wolves surrounding Moss did not seem to want to delay any longer. After forming a semi-encirclement around Moss and Alan, they directly began to attack.

The two Level-2 Explosive Wolves were in the lead.

It seemed that they had learned a lesson from their previous two companions. This time, they did not choose to attack from two directions. Instead, they decided to attack from a fan-like angle.

If Moss wanted to receive all of these attacks in one go, he would have to expose his middle section, giving the deadliest Level-3 Explosive Wolf an opening to attack.

However, Moss was not afraid of such an attack at all. He took the lead and kicked one of the wolves attacking him.

“Roar!”

The wolf cried out in pain and flew backward.

Moss maintained his kicking action while he stabbed the sword in his hand at the wolf on the other side.
