"Boom!!"
The earth swelled, and layers of giant rocks merged, forming a wall tens of meters high in the blink of an eye.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The next moment, the spears fell, and the sound of exploding grenades echoed across the sky.
The earthen-rock wall shattered, and smoke billowed.
And bursting out from within were the wolf tribe members led by Dou Ya.
Dou Ya transformed into a five-meter-tall wolfman.
His muscles appeared to be cast from steel, each hair gleaming like a sharp blade, and his wolf claws were the sharpest weapons in the world, capable of piercing anything.
"Zzzzz~~~"
The Heroic Spirit warriors' weapons struck them, emitting a harsh buzzing sound.
Although sparks flew, they could not leave even a scratch on their bodies.
"What?"
"How can they be so tough?"
The Heroic Spirit warriors' expressions froze; they never expected that their weapons couldn't even breach the enemy's defense.
"Hahaha!"
Dou Ya smashed a Heroic Spirit soldier who dared to attack him with a single slap, a savage grin on his face: "Little ones, charge with me!!"
"Oh, oh, oh!!"
The Steel-element wolf tribe was most adept at close combat.
Their defense was astonishing, and every move they made was enveloped in white light, a symbol of steel magic.
In an instant, the Steel-element wolf tribe moved as if through an uninhabited land, tearing everything in their path to shreds.
"Buzz~~~"
On the other side, wolfmen and beast-eared girls in pure white martial arts uniforms were moving through the enemy ranks.
"Flame Fist!"
"Lightning Fist!"
"Ice Fist!"
"Ora Ora Ora Ora~~~"
They needed no armor or weapons.
Bare-handed, they displayed their martial arts to the fullest.
"Don't engage them in close combat!!"
"Use ranged weapons!"
Bows and arrows, javelins—the number of combat-element wolf tribe members was too small, only a few dozen.
So, as long as they were surrounded by a shield formation, and then the spears advanced step by step, these guys could be easily taken down.
"Is that so?"
However, Dou Ya, with his square-shaped face, scoffed at such tactics.
He was preparing to gather his energy and unleash a combat magic powerful enough to destroy a city wall.
Unfortunately, before he could make his move...
The surrounding Heroic Spirit warriors seemed to be lifted by an invisible force, all floating into the air, struggling and wailing.
"Ah!"
"What is this?"
"Damn it, put me down!"
"..."
In the chaos, a girl sat cross-legged in the air, slowly descending.
Beside her stood wolf tribe members in their wolfman forms.
These wolf tribe members' eyes glowed with bluish-white light, one hand holding a metal spoon, the other hand's fingers fluttering, as if controlling something.
"Hey, Nian Ya!"
Dou Ya: "You can't just openly steal credit like that!"
The wolf-eared girl called Nian Ya was the leader of the Psychic-element wolf tribe, Nian Ya.
However, she preferred to be called Nian, or Ah Nian.
No wonder, since the name Bai Luo gave her sounded too much like sticky teeth.
Nian Ya didn't dislike it, she just felt it didn't fit her image as a psychic, a profound and mysterious being.
"Explain yourself, when did I ever steal your credit?"
The girl, who had been closing her eyes, suddenly opened them.
In that instant, terrifying psychic power spread in all directions, actually sending all the surrounding Heroic Spirit soldiers flying.
"This one move of mine did more than all of you combined."
Nian Ya sneered: "Do I need to steal your credit? What a joke!"
"You, you fellow..."
Dou Ya was furious, but he truly had no rebuttal to Nian Ya's words.
The Combat-element was not like other attributes; they were better at one-on-one combat than battlefield operations.
"A bunch of fools."
"What merit can there be in just attacking foot soldiers, no matter how many you defeat?"
Seeing Nian Ya feeling smug, the girl hidden in the shadows showed a look of disdain.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Yao Ya, like a true ghost, used the shadows of the people on the battlefield as springboards, traversing through dimensions to swiftly sneak towards Conqueror's location.
'I got him!'
Soon, Yao Ya found an opportunity.
Her figure leaped out from the shadow of a personal guard beside Conqueror.
Bai Luo had given orders not to kill Conqueror.
However, Yao Ya wasn't trying to kill Conqueror either.
As long as she could touch him, she could drag him into the shadows.
At that point, wouldn't he be at her mercy?
"Rider, be careful!"
The moment Yao Ya appeared, Conqueror's guards immediately noticed her.
... ...
"Assassin!"
The imperial guards displayed extraordinary combat power, immediately blocking Yao Ya.
As for the soldiers further out, they also reacted instantly and came to protect their lord.
"Stop them!"
"Yes, sir!"
As Yao Ya's command was given, more Ghost Wolf-kin appeared from the void.
They wove together everyone's shadows, like a black curtain, enveloping hundreds of people, including Conqueror.
"What's going on?"
The dark cover before them exuded an eerie and sinister aura, sending shivers down their spines.
However, they were legendary Heroic Spirits, not afraid of mere ghosts or evil spirits.
But when their footsteps entered the darkness, they found that what was in front of them was not inside the cover, but on the other side.
...
"Space, has been sealed?!"
Soon, they understood one thing.
This strange black cover was some kind of spatial barrier, completely isolating the internal and external spaces.
And this also meant that their King had to face the attacking assassin!
Dark World.
Conqueror, protected by hundreds of his most elite Heroic Spirit warriors, stood ready.
"Over here!"
The moment Yao Ya appeared, she was already detected.
The girl couldn't help but sigh, Conqueror's subordinate generals were indeed filled with strong individuals.
These elite warriors were no weaker than the Wolf-kin in strength, each of them at B-rank or above.
Among them, there were even several A-rank Heroic Spirits.
If it were a direct frontal battle, Yao Ya had no confidence in leaving alive.
"But I'm not here for a frontal attack."
Yao Ya revealed a strange smile, then rushed towards Conqueror like a phantom.
"We will never allow you to harm our King!"
A Heroic Spirit warrior, clad in armor and possessing an extraordinary aura, slashed his long blade at the elegant figure that appeared before him.
However,
"What?!"
The opponent looked at the blade passing through Yao Ya's body, an expression of disbelief on his face.
"Damn it!"
"What's wrong with this guy?"
Weapons and attacks rained down on Yao Ya like a storm.
But no matter what kind of move it was, Yao Ya seemed to be in another world, completely ignoring them all.
