Undying Warlord Chapter 157 Silver Wolf pack

Chapter 157 Silver Wolf pack

After his encounter with a small group of Mountain Bisons, Dilan grew wary of the monsters, who had come out of the mountain’s forest.
There was no need for him to act hastily and he would rather watch the fights of monsters and assassinate them when the opportunity was ripe than being assassinated while fighting a batch of monsters.
His Mana recuperated slowly without Dilan’s active support to accelerate the procedure. Thus, he was not willing to join a fight until he was in his peak form either.
He wanted to find Silver Tier-1 monsters, not those Bronze monsters.
Their value was much lower in Dilan’s eyes which meant that he didn’t have to endanger his life while facing them.
Dilan was excited to keep fighting and facing powerful opponents, however, there was also the need to pay attention to his actions.
It would be disadvantageous if he were to act like a brickhead, and simply attack monsters without caring about the aftermath, just because he wanted to, at that.
Time passed slowly and Dilan found something that attracted his interest. There were at least ten corpses of two different types of monsters in front of Dilan.
At first, there were three bodies of silver-furred wolves. Their height was at least 1.5 meters which were not to be underestimated.
With a single pounce, they would be able to tear open the chest of an ordinary Tier-1 Ascender by making use of their sharp claws and teeth.
Meanwhile, the second type of body he found belonged to a monster that seemed to be a cross between a deer and a Bear.-.
Dilan was not sure if that was correct what he saw but their bodies were comparable to a brown bear, just that their head was that of a deer.
It looked so grotesque that Dilan was lost for words for a few seconds.
But after he got hang of his emotions a bright smile emerged on his face.
‘They were killed not too long ago!’
Warm blood was still oozing out of the wounds on the bodies of both the Silver furred wolves and the Deer-Bears. Not even their Essence crystals had been collected yet.
This intrigued Dilan quite a bit. Nonetheless, the first thing he did was to take a look at his surroundings to find out where the remaining wolves and Deer-Bears were located.
A pack of wolves should have more than three members and there were signs hinting that the fight had continued even after these deaths.
Thus, only after he saw that there were no monsters around him, did he calm down enough to focus on collecting the monster’s Essence crystals.
They might not have much of direct use for Dilan but the presence of the corpses was more than enough for him to smile brightly.
“As expected!” He exclaimed while holding the Silver Tier-1 Essence crystal of the Silver Wolf in his hand.
All three Silver Wolves possessed a Silver Essence crystal, while the Deer-Bears had Bronze Essence crystals.
This was simply too great which was why Dilan’s mood improved considerably, despite the start of a heavy snowstorm.
It prevented him from pursuing his mission. His mood had plummeted earlier for a moment when the snowstorm had begun but now he was excited once again.
With excitement filling his head and the desire to fight against the pack of Silver Wolves, Dilan followed the signs that led him to a rather large battlefield.
Not a single monster in the proximity of the large street dared to be in the way of the Silver Wolf pack as they pounced at the Deer-Bears.
The number of the deer bear herd was close to 50 but nearly all of them had already been injured.
On the other hand, there were only six Silver Wolves, who were facing all these Deer-Bears.
The Deer-Bears were not afraid of fighting back. Rather, they seemed to be infuriated to have been chosen as prey by the Silver Wolves.
Despite being half deers, which were said to have no combat power, they were also half bears, with razor-sharp claws.
That was more than enough for them to use their numerical advantage in order to fight the six Silver Wolves.
Dilan’s eyes widened in excitement when he saw that the Deer-Bears surrounded the six Silver Wolves, only for two words to escape his mouth inadvertently.
“Big Mistake”
It was a big mistake for the Deer-Bears to think that it was possible to surround and overwhelm the Silver Wolves just like that.
They wouldn’t stay in the circle and give in easily which was proved correct as only a second later, they broke out.
With a rapid speed that was much higher than even Dilan’s the six Silver Wolves shot out to six different directions.
It was as if they had chosen to split up their group to take care of all the Deer-Bears as quickly as possible.
They didn’t care about the injuries they had sustained. It was fine as long as they would survive.
Dilan felt that their fighting style was not influenced by the intellect but it was still much better than the Deer-Bears’ actions.
Despite having separated, the Deer-Beers were now trying to team up with each other.
However, that was not possible anymore as the Silver Wolves pounced at one Deer-Bear, tearing it apart before breaking out of the encirclement.
All of a sudden, the Silver Wolves switched their attention to another group of Deer-Bears, which they decided to attack.
Without halting in their tracks and without being forced to turn around to attack their own group, the Silver Wolves attacked one of the groups their brethren had already attacked.
This allowed them to maintain high speed without slowing down too much.
Dilan felt that his earlier conclusion might have been a little bit hasty because the Silver Wolves coordinated quite well with each other.
‘Is all of that because of this one?’
Dilan’s eyes followed a particular Silver Wolf. It was greater than 2 meters in height and thus much bigger than its brethren. Its strength was also higher even if it was not drastically high.
However, what Dilan presumed was that its intellect was higher than the other Silver Wolves as he could see how it moved its head to observe and assess the situation around itself all the time.
The cooperation created by the Silver Wolf leader was something Dilan looked forward to. He wanted to fight the Silver Wolf as well.
His hands were itching for a battle and the desire in his eyes clearly showed.
He was just waiting for the perfect moment to assassinate the monster using [Thunder Step] and [Gale] in a specific combination to kill the Silver Wolf Leader in an instant.
Unfortunately, that would take some time because the Silver Wolves were not able to easily suppress all the Deer-Bears.
But that was only obvious because their numbers were nearly ten times that of the Silver Wolves!
Dilan presumed that their fight would last, at least ten more minutes.
However, Dilan’s plan was bound to be shattered, which he realized the moment he felt an ominous feeling crawling up his spine.
All of a sudden, a terrifying roar filled Rian’s outskirts and echoed through the vast open area, the winds helping it reach a bigger area. The Deer-Bears, which had already been attacked, flinched at that sound.
However, they were not the only ones, who had flinched. Even the Silver Wolf leader looked over to the direction of the roar, worry gleaming in its eyes.
But that was not all because even Dilan was not able to remain unfazed when he heard the roar as his head flicked over as well.
“Oh! That will be interesting!” Dilan exclaimed, his eyes gleaming brightly.
He was excited about the change that was about to unravel itself and ready to reap all the gains the moment all the beasts would be exhausted.
And this was bound to happen with the interference of the being, which had appeared seemingly out of nowhere!
