6 Black Wolf Leader

"I've been spotted!"

Alex sighed, realizing he had underestimated the power of his upgraded [Wind Blade], which led to his current predicament. He resolved to test the power of his skills after upgrading them before using them in actual combat next time.

[Triple Wind Blade]!

Three wind blades flew out, instantly killing three wolf demons. Then, utilizing the [Wind Walk], his speed increased dramatically, appearing as nothing more than a blur before everything went dark for the wolf demons.

"I thought it was some formidable figure, but it turns out to be just you, the little white wolf!"

When only one of the eight wolf demons remained, trembling in fear, the black wolf leader finally arrived with his subordinates.

Black Wolf Leader (8) (Leader-level)

One of the seven Black Wolf Leaders of Black Wolf Mountain, ranked sixth in strength and known as June. His claws, constantly sharpened against metallic ores, can easily cut through hard substances.

"Level 8, two levels higher than me and a leader-level opponent. This is going to be tough."

Checking the black wolf leader's information, Alex's heart sank.

"Just die quietly, you ugly sh*t!"

With a single step, the black wolf leader exerted a tremendous pressure on Alex, who trembled slightly before releasing the Wolf King's Might, instantly dissipating the pressure.

On the contrary, it was the black wolf leader felt a significant pressure emanating from Alex, seemingly having his own strength suppressed.

"Stop playing freaking tricks!"

Unable to tolerate the feeling of being suppressed, a fierce light flashed in the black wolf leader's eyes as a claw, gleaming with a dark metallic luster, appeared in front of Alex.

[Wind Walk]!

Relying on the speed boost from [Wind Walk], Alex easily dodged the black wolf leader's attack.

"Quite the runner!"

The claw hit empty air and dug deep into the ground, pulling out without a trace of anything on it.

"Not without a chance!"

Alex noticed that, although the black wolf leader was powerful, his speed couldn't match Alex's when [Wind Walk] was activated. This could be an opportunity.

His gaze shifted from the black wolf leader to the subordinates he brought, and Alex grinned.

If you can't beat the big brother, why not go for the weaker ones? You gotta go for the low-hanging fruit.

"Did you think I wouldn't expect that? To kill you, I brought my strongest subordinates." Black Wolf Captain (6)(Elite)

The backbone of Black Wolf Mountain, consisting of the Black Wolf King, Black Wolf Leaders, and Black Wolf Captains, forms the governing structure of Black Wolf Mountain.

Common black wolves are usually below level 5. Above level 5, they become squad captains, and above the squad captains was the captain.

So, for capturing Alex, June, the black wolf leader, could be said to have pulled out all the stops.

"Miscalculated!"

With the black wolf leader, several captains, and countless wolf demons, Alex knew that a small mistake would result in consequences he could not bear.

"Sh*t"

Alex growled, releasing three wind blades.

But they were easily dodged by the black wolf leader and the black wolf captains.

"Keep dodging!"

While the black wolf leader and captains managed to avoid the blades, the common wolf demons behind them couldn't escape the fast-moving wind blades and were cut down on the spot.

With three wind blades unleashed, Alex eliminated dozens of wolf demons, significantly boosting both his experience points and evolution points.

After releasing the wind blade, Alex used his speed to evade the furious attacks from the black wolf leader, dodged the wolf captains, and even managed to strike one, sending him flying.

"Am I really this strong?"

Alex was mildly surprised, reminding himself that the Snow Wolf Royal is a hybrid of mage and warrior capabilities—charging ahead as a warrior and supporting from behind as a mage.

.......

"Trouble, [Wind Walk]'s duration is up."

As Alex's speed decreased, he found himself in dangerous situations, his every move like dancing on the edge of a knife. A single misstep could lead to a fatal outcome.

[Wind Blade]!

While waiting for [Wind Walk] to cool down, Alex dodged attacks, using [Wind Blade] to fend off hits from the black wolf leader when necessary.

Fortunately, the black wolf leader was cautious of Alex's [Wind Blade], opting to dodge rather than confront directly. Each dodged [Wind Blade] ended up taking out several common wolf demons, a deliberate outcome by Alex.

However, amidst the prolonged attack, Alex had yet to use one of his trump cards.

[Wind Bind].

After the upgrade, Wind Bind could bind two targets at once. Alex considered it a special tactic to be used for achieving surprising effects.

"[Wind Walk]!"

Once [Wind Walk] cooled down, Alex immediately activated it, instantly increasing the distance between him and the black wolf leader.

"Now, it's my turn!"

Alex targeted a wolf captain who had failed to dodge a [Wind Blade] earlier and had lost a claw, now half-crippled and only able to provide support from the sidelines.

With the speed from [Wind Walk], Alex's movement was incomparable to the half-crippled wolf demon, who was instantly slain by Alex.

"Next!"

Taking advantage of [Wind Walk]'s duration, Alex aimed to eliminate as many threats as possible. Otherwise, once [Wind Walk] cooled down again, he would face even more frenzied attacks.

"Go to hell!!"

The black wolf leader was thoroughly enraged as his subordinates were killed off one by one, yet he was powerless to stop it.

"Have the guts to stop running and fight me face-to-face!"

[Wind Blade]!

After taking out the last wolf captain, Alex finally turned to face the black wolf leader.

At that moment, the black wolf leader appeared unusually calm, as if nothing had happened, but it was just the calm before the storm.

Quality: Elite

Level: 6 (10600/11000)

Talents: Super Evolution, Repetition, Wolf King's Might

Close to leveling up, Alex launched another [Wind Blade], instantly filling his experience points.

"Ding! The host has met the conditions for leveling up. You may manually level up."

"Level up. Also, system, switch to auto-levelup for me. Manually leveling up each time is a hassle."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for leveling up to level 7, consuming 11000 experience points."

"Ding, you've leveled up and gained a skill point."

With the new skill point, Alex decided not to upgrade an existing skill but to learn a new one.

[Earth-Shaking]: Concentrates all of one's strength into a single point to attack the target. Upon hitting, the target is knocked back, with the duration varying depending on the target's weight.

"Here's your chance for a head-on confrontation!"

Alex turned and charged directly at the black wolf leader, activating [Earth-Shaking].

Seeing Alex actually charging, the black wolf leader was overjoyed, bellowing.

"You're courting death!"
