Chapter 150: The Plan Changes

First, they emerged from the misty Fog Zone.

Then, they swiftly journeyed for about an hour, likely reaching the outskirts of the forest.

In the distance, intermittent wolf howls echoed.

And it seemed there were… human screams?

Army Lady halted first, and the four Stealth Ants followed suit.

"What are we doing?"

Stealth One inquired calmly.

"Didn’t you hear? It must be the voice of a human race adventurer; they seem to be in trouble."

"So what? Don’t meddle, or you’ll delay what Mom instructed us to do."

"Of course, I know."

Army Lady retorted in an equally annoyed tone.

"But if we can assist them, we might obtain information about the town from them. Adventurers frequently visit the town, and they surely know more than the villagers."

Stealth One seemed to acknowledge Army Lady’s point but chose not to admit it, remaining silent.

The other three ants also stayed quiet.

"What do you all think?"

"It’s not our concern. Mom said we are only responsible for your safety."

"Um…"

Army Lady felt conflicted.

Originally, she hadn’t intended to consult them.

But if she decided to divert their path to aid those adventurers, it would be acting on her own initiative. Would Mom be displeased if she found out? However, if these guys agreed, they would share the responsibility if Mom was upset.

But… never mind.

Let’s adhere to the original plan.

Just as she was about to proceed,

A mysterious and profound sensation suddenly enveloped her, as if an invisible thread connected her to a distant presence.

"Army Lady."

"Mom?!"

Connected… connected to Mom, this was the first time.

What an extraordinary feeling.

"To the northwest of you, three adventurers are besieged by a pack of wolves. I want you to help them fend off the wolves."

"Yes!"

Army Lady quickly regained her focus. She first glanced at the four Stealth Ants beside her.

"Mom just connected with me; she asked me to help those human adventurers."

After speaking, the blonde girl began to move, swiftly navigating through the forest.

Without needing a reminder from Army Lady, four shadows silently approached from behind and merged into her shadow.

Unless absolutely necessary, they must not be seen by the human race.

Thus, the task of aiding those adventurers fell solely to Army Lady.

"Does mommy mean…?"

As she approached the source of the sound, Army Lady inquired of Lin Yu.

"Yes, the plan has temporarily changed; our target for gathering information has shifted to those three adventurers."

"How did mommy discover those three adventurers?"

"There happened to be one of our lookout points nearby, and I was connected with the ants at that post, which is how I found out."

The girl’s voice paused briefly before she changed the subject.

"Try to save those three adventurers if possible. Be cautious to conserve your strength; just kill the lead wolf and drive back the other Granville Wolves."

"Understood."

"I can activate my disguise skill now."

"Alright."

After responding, Army Lady activated her skill "Disguise."

Words on her Attribute Panel began to disappear and change.

Her name remained Army Lady, but her race changed to human.

Her qualification was adjusted to B, similar to Jilly.

Her rank became Class C, and her level was set to the average for Class C, which is LV.15.

Her Health Value, Magic Value, strength, agility, and other attributes all decreased to the level of a Class C monster.

The skills section now included "Sword Talent," "Archery Talent," "Chop," "Attack Enhancement," "Focus," and "Greatly Attack Enhancement."

Among these, several are skills that Army Lady genuinely possesses, such as "Focus," "Attack Enhancement," and "Greatly Attack Enhancement."

The rest are skills that don’t actually exist, but it’s difficult for others to discern whether she truly has them.

"Sword Talent" and "Archery Talent" are passive skills, so they are not visible, and "Chop" is similar; Lin Yu had previously seen this skill on the Dead Spirit.

Only upon activation does a faint white glow appear, which is not only hard to notice but can easily be mistaken for the reflection on the weapon’s surface in broad daylight.

…

Soon, Army Lady arrived at the location from which the sound was emanating.

There, she saw a group of six Granville Wolves, forming a circle around three adventurers and the large tree they were leaning against.

The three adventurers appeared young, around fourteen or fifteen years old.

Two of them were boys.

One boy had short black hair; he held a small round shield in one hand and a short sword about half a meter long in the other, dressed in light brown leather armor.

A boy with a brown, watermelon-shaped haircut gripped a long sword with both hands, clad in the same light brown leather armor as his companion beside him.

There was also a girl, holding a wooden magic wand that stood taller than herself, dressed in a slightly coarse fabric robe.

The two boys positioned themselves on either side, shielding the girl between them and the large tree.

It appeared that both sides had engaged in several rounds of combat, each bearing their own injuries.

Among the wolf pack, aside from the alpha, the other five wolves bore bloodstains, with two of them having large patches of their fur severely burned, indicating serious injuries.

However, among the three adventurers, the girl seemed unscathed, while the two boys were in a far worse state.

They were nearly drenched in blood, their leather armor shredded by the wolf pack. Without the protection of their armor, they were riddled with wounds, blood seeping from each.

"Hiss…"

Their hands, clutching their weapons, trembled slightly as they gasped for breath, their faces contorted with pain and fear.

"What… what do we do… are we going to die here?"

The boy with the watermelon head clenched his teeth and cursed under his breath.

"Damn it, why are we encountering a wolf pack in such an open area!"

"Stop complaining, Mayer… conserve your strength."

Another boy, with black hair, spoke, his lips quivering.

"They’re preparing for another attack. The alpha will likely make its move next. Sally! How’s your magic coming along?"

"Don’t rush me! I only recently learned Fireball. The success rate is low, and its power isn’t sufficient… Even if I’m ready, what difference will it make? Will, we might truly be doomed this time."

The girl began to break down, and the magical elements that had partially gathered on her magic wand dissipated instantly.

"Don’t worry about me! With your speed, you still have a chance to escape! Just leave me, boo-hoo…"

"You fool! Don’t break down now!"

Will’s expression changed dramatically.

"Mayer, be careful, the wolf pack is about to—"

Before he could finish, the wolf pack, which had merely been encircling them, suddenly lunged.

We’re doomed; without Sally’s magical support, facing six Granville Wolves along with the alpha…

There’s no chance of winning…

As this desperate thought crossed his mind.

A figure flashed before his eyes.

The young adventurers didn’t even see how the other attacked.

In the next moment—

Including the alpha, six Granville Wolves fell from the air, their bodies severed, blood splattering everywhere.

A young girl with golden hair, clad in silver light armor, landed gracefully.

After landing, she shook the blood off her long sword, turning her back to the three young adventurers, leaving them with only her silhouette.

Army Lady…

Sorry, Mom, I attacked according to the Class C Attribute Panel; it’s just that these Granville Wolves are weaker than expected…
