Chapter 306: Unleashing True Fire
The Wolf King was caught off guard by the mutated wolfhound’s unexpected attack, even though most of the earth needles were blocked, some managed to pierce into his soft body.
The mutated wolfhound planned to wait for the Wolf King to remove the needles before launching the next attack.
However, before the mutated wolfhound could do anything, it noticed that the wounds it inflicted on the Wolf King were already closing up.
To its surprise, the Wolf King didn’t try to remove the earth needles, and the wounds healed completely.
The Wolf King absorbed the earth-element energy directly into his body.
The mutated wolfhound was astonished as it didn’t expect the Wolf King to have this ability.
But the fact is, Wolf King managed to absorb the earth-element it condensed by force, even though its purity may not be as good as the mutated wolfhound’s. However, its advantage is so huge that it overwhelms the purity, enveloping the earth powers absorbed from the mutated wolfhound.
This slight quality advantage cannot make up for the gap between the mutated wolfhound and Wolf King.
However, despite the shock, the mutated wolfhound did not sit idle. It had already learned from Zhang Mu that day. Daydreaming in battle is the silliest thing to do; all reflection will have to wait until the battle is over.
The earth armor condensed again, this time even more solidly, protecting the mutated wolfhound. With this heavy earth armor on, it charged towards Wolf King with all its might.
It seemed that Wolf King was truly angry. The mutated wolfhound’s actions had provoked its limit. The mutated wolfhound had repeated provocations that tested its patience, causing its voice to change tone. Without dodging, it confronted the mutated wolfhound head-on.
Surprisingly, Wolf King used the same method as the mutated wolfhound, condensing the earth-element around itself. It wanted to use the mutated wolfhound’s techniques to compete with it and make it acknowledge defeat.
Getting extremely close, both leaped at the same time and collided in the next second, scattering earth crumbs from their heads.
The mutated wolfhound’s power was clearly no match for Wolf King’s. With a sudden tilt of its head, Wolf King fiercely brushed it away, as if throwing a sandbag directly to the ground.
Wolf King did not hold back; the ground was full of spiderweb patterns, looking like it was about to give in to the mutated wolfhound’s weight, ready to crack and sink.
The mutated wolfhound pressed its hind legs down, and the unstable ground solidified instantly after gathering earth-element energy.
It was feeling a bit knocked around, but that was thanks to the earth-based armor protecting it.
The mutated wolfhound shook its head vigorously, sparks of desire for battle flickering in its eyes as it growled defiantly at the Wolf King who had backed away.
It had not fought so passionately in a long time, as most battles were usually handled by Zhang Mu and the Obsidian Beetle. Its fighting skills had gathered dust, but now, facing the Wolf King, it charged once again.
The Wolf King showed no signs of fatigue, its endurance far surpassing that of the mutated wolfhound. They both lunged at each other once more, with the mutated wolfhound being clever enough not to rely on leveraging the ground in mid-air. Without access to earth-element energy, it would surely be at a disadvantage.
The wolf and the hound locked horns like two raging bulls, eyes fixed on each other, their teeth almost breaking from the intense grinding as they breathed heavily.
On the ground, the mutated wolfhound managed to hold its ground against the Wolf King. Being more attuned to the earth-element, it found support from the ground and surprisingly did not falter.
The Obsidian Beetle casually remarked on the side, “This dead dog has quite the strength and affinity with the elements. Could it be that the Wolf King is too weak, embarrassing us second-rank mutated beasts by struggling to keep up with a mere first-rank dead dog?”
Zhang Mu was too occupied to pay attention to the chatter, his gaze fixed on guarding the area. Due to the special elemental nature of the mutated wolfhound and the Wolf King, if the Blood Lotus hiding spot was too close, they could easily be discovered. He had to constantly move the Blood Lotus within a boundary of safety from detection.
Now, it seems that the mutated wolfhound is safe from the Wolf King’s attacks, as the Wolf King is controlling its actions carefully. But Zhang Mu knows that this is just the beginning.
Zhang Mu is cautious because the mutated wolfhound can still resist and fight back against the Wolf King, instead of being completely overpowered by him.
Everything is fine for now, but when things escalate, these two may not be able to control the situation.
The mutated wolfhound’s resistance gradually weakens, and the Wolf King seizes the moment when it is vulnerable. With a powerful force, the Wolf King hits the wolfhound, sending it flying and crashing to the ground.
As the Wolf King prepares to retreat from attacking the unconscious mutated wolfhound and return to the wolf pack, the wolfhound suddenly moves its front paw on the ground, then quickly charges and headbutts the Wolf King.
This time, both the mutated wolfhound and the Wolf King show cracks on their head armors made of earth.
Surprisingly, the crack on the mutated wolfhound’s head armor is very slight, while a piece of the Wolf King’s head armor is already shattered.
The Wolf King has a lot of energy, but when forming the earth armor, it could only evenly distribute the earth-element throughout its body.
In contrast, the mutated wolfhound, with strong control over the earth-element, strategically concentrated the energy into the head armor, making its body armor almost nonexistent.
The Wolf King hadn’t realized yet that the mutated wolfhound’s injuries were not as serious as its own. The mutated wolfhound immediately launched another fierce attack, as if it didn’t feel any pain, and slammed hard into the Wolf King’s head.
The Wolf King remained unfazed, shook its slightly numb head, took a few steps back, and continued to charge like it was hurting itself.
“Crack!”
This time, the earth-element armor covering the Wolf King’s head shattered completely, and the mutated wolfhound’s head, still covered in armor, relentlessly struck the Wolf King’s head.
In an instant, blood flowed from the Wolf King’s head. It finally realized that the first-level impure-blood wolfdog in front of it had really injured it.
Roar!
After a fierce roar, the raging anger and aggression completely overwhelmed the Wolf King’s rationality.
