Apex War God

Chapter 48: Ten Thousand Wolves Making an Assault

The Smoke Signal Mountain Range was famous for its wolves. Since wolf spirits dominated the region, there were countless wolf spirits there. Ordinary wolf spirits populated the periphery, which was why the Xia Dynasty could occupy some land to build the mountain prison. Deeper into the mountains, the more powerful wolf spirits ran rampant, and even a King would be leery of venturing inside, fearing death.

Ever since Wan Tianlong repulsed the Consummate Grade Wolf General Lang Cha, Lang Cha bore a grudge. It ordered its subordinates to attack the mountain prison from time to time, resulting in the deaths of several prison guards and prisoners.

In addition to the ordered attacks, Lang Cha headed towards another Wolf Kings territory. It wanted to persuade the Wolf King to attack the mountain prison.

Before a mountain full of goldleaf trees was an area carpeted with brilliant golden leaves. Yellow, dazzling, and beautiful, with the soughing breeze, the place was refreshing to the soul.

Lang Cha knelt in front of a cave on the mountainside, waiting respectfully. It dared not show the slightest sign of impatience.

In the cave, a pair of golden eyes that shone like the sun darted around. Lang Cha, are you aware of your crime in disturbing this king?

Lang Cha is at fault and asks for my kings forgiveness! Lang Cha said with its head lowered. After a pause, it continued, This insignificant one has an urgent matter that requires my kings attention. I need my king to claim justice for the wolves of my clan and wipe out those lowly humans.

A dissatisfied voice came from the cave. You do know that our clan has an agreement with the humans, dont you? Are you asking me to break this agreement?

This insignificant one dares not. It is just that the humans have gone too far this time! They dug up a Kings treasure, yet when I brought my subordinates to ask for a share of it so that I could dedicate it to my king, they slaughtered thousands of my subordinates. Lang Cha is incompetent and asks for my kings punishment! Lang Cha said, kneeling.

Are you sure it was a Kings treasure? The voice from the cave carried a trace of urgency.

There is no mistake. I smelled an earthly spirit spring and sensed a peculiar Profound Energy. Once absorbed, it would raise my kings strength to greater heights! Lang Cha said.

You bastard, why didnt you tell me until now?! the Wolf King in the cave yelped in dissatisfaction and rushed out. Its huge head bit at Lang Cha.

The terrified Lang Cha dared not even twitch.

With one bite, the golden Wolf King caught Lang Cha by the scruff and flung it away fiercely. Lang Cha went flying, missing a piece of flesh from its neck and bleeding nonstop. Its body crashed into and broke several goldleaf trees.

Wolf King Lang Jie was a true Wolf King. It stood over 1.8 meters tall, its fur was golden, it had strong limbs, and it showed a ferocious expression. It was the king of a vast region bordering the mountain range, and Lang Cha was one of its subordinates.

You wanted to monopolize the Kings treasure for yourself, so that you could advance to a King. Do not think that I cannot see through your schemes! Lang Jie said, glaring at Lang Cha.

Lang Cha was so frightened that it could not stop trembling and begged for mercy, Pardon me, my king! Please pardon me, my king!

Take me to see whether the Kings treasure is still there. Immediately! If it is not, then you will be my food! Lang Jie growled in anger.

Lang Cha did not even bother tending to its injuries. It sprang to its feet and led Lang Jie to the mountain prison.

Arooo!

Lang Jie raised its head to the sky and howled. The mountains and forests shook, and the birds perched on the trees took wing in fright. Some weak animal spirits hid quickly. The wolf spirits walked out of their dens, all howling response, then bolted towards Lang Jie.

Half an hour later, nearly ten thousand wolf spirits surrounded the mountain prison.

The prison guards and prisoners were shocked at the incessant howling.

Lie Feng was temporarily in charge of the mountain wolf affairs in Wan Tianlongs place. When he realized that a horde of wolf spirits had rushed over, he was beside himself.

Damn it. The wolf spirits are here again. The bloody pit is no more; what else do they want?! Lie Feng cursed under his breath as he mounted his gray wolf and mustered his subordinates from the various prison blocks. He immediately approached Meng Helang and the others for assistance.

Dutybound to support, Meng Helang and the other Eagle Knights got on their eagles and took to the sky. They went ahead to reconnoiter the wolf spirits.

Their expressions turned heavy as soon as they saw the sheer number of wolf spirits around, and they became especially flustered when they saw the strong, golden-furred Wolf King.

Meng Helang, however, shouted at Lang Jie in an exceptionally calm voice, Your Excellency the wolf king, what do you mean by invading the Xia Dynastys territory?

Meng Helang was not from the mountain prison, but as the commander of the Eagle Knights, he was also an official of the imperial court. As long as he was here, he had an obligation to maintain the peace of the mountain prison.

If something happened to the mountain prison during this period, he would have difficulty accounting for himself.

Lang Jie lifted its head with a cold gaze and said in the human tongue, Get those little eagles down right now! Arooo!

Lang Jies aura soared into the sky and swept through the air, prompting Meng Helangs and the others eagles to screech in panic. Their bodies shuddered, and they fell from the sky.

Shriek!

These eight eagle spirits were Spirit Warriors; their strength was by no means insignificant. However, the power of this Spirit King was indomitable, and they were not that high up. After it howled at them, they could not withstand its soaring aura.

Seeing that the eight eagles were about to crash to the ground, Meng Helang and the others jumped off their backs to avoid being thrown to the ground.

At this time, Lie Feng rushed over with thousands of prison guards.

Lie Feng shuddered at the sight of the horde of wolf spirits. He ordered, Ready the crossbows!

Three thousand crossbowmen promptly raised their loaded crossbows, stepped forward one after another, and aimed at the wolf spirits, poised to shoot at Lie Fengs command.

These crossbowmen were experts at long-range shooting, and their offensive prowess was phenomenal. Ordinary Spirit Warriors were no match for them; even Spirit Generals would find them challenging. They were a key component in Wan Tianlongs success in defeating the wolf spirits previously.

Lang Jie bared its dark fangs and said coldly, Are you humans seeking death?

The other wolf spirits eyes had ferocious gleams as they howled one after another.

Arooo!

Ten thousand wolves howled in chorus, and the terrifying noise made the prison guards tremble, giving rise to a sense of dread.

They could not help their fear. They would have been unfazed had they faced a pack of wolf spirits under the General Realm. However, these wolf spirits were led by a Wolf King, which made all the difference.

Lie Feng got down from his gray wolf, which had gone soft with fear, and mustered his courage to shout at the Wolf King, Wolf king, what exactly do you want? Our Barbarian Suppression Army is nearby. If you really attack our mountain prison, we can retaliate by clearing your dens, you know! You will suffer as well!

Hand over the Kings treasure you uncovered, or we will leave this prison in shambles today! Lang Jie countered menacingly.

There was no Kings treasure in that bloody pit, only a Lord Wang of our human race. He is a King, just like you, and he is resting here as we speak. If you attack us and alarm that lord, Im afraid you will pay for it! Lie Feng said.

Oh, really? Then, let this king see how powerful your human Kings are! Lang Jie retorted, then howled for an assault. Arooo! Ten thousand wolves charged out to attack the mountain prison.

Youre going too far! Shoot! This was not Lie Fengs first battle with the wolf spirits. When the wolf spirits attacked, he immediately ordered a counterattack.

A barrage of bolts instantly shot toward the wolf spirits.

In the blink of an eye, many wolf spirits were shot and killed.

The wolves were up against extremely powerful, long-range warriors. If not for this battalion, the Smoke Signal Mountain Prison could never have withstood the attacks of the wolf spirits.

The multitude of wolf spirits did not concentrate in one direction as if waiting to get shot. Some stronger wolf spirits leaped around, evading the arrows, then pounced on the prison guards.

Some prison guards who could not run away got bitten by the wolf spirits and killed on the spot. Blood splattered everywhere.

The humans and wolf spirits renewed hostilities.

The Wolf King sat at the rear of the wolves, waiting to attack. It allowed the wolf spirits on the frontline to charge into battle.

As a Wolf King, it had its pride and would never debase itself by attacking such weak opponents.

Lie Feng could not do the same as Lang Jie. As the wolf spirits attacked, he had no choice but to draw his sword and join the battle. He could not allow the wolf spirits to break through the defense line of the mountain prison. If the prisoners escaped because of this, he would have to shoulder the responsibility.

Naturally, Meng Helang and others did not stand by idly but joined the battalion in fighting the wolf spirits.

As the leader of the eight Eagle Knights, Meng Helang was extremely strong. His abilities bordered on a Kings. As he swung his long sword, shock waves cut through the air one after the other, slashing the wolf spirits in half and spilling a lot of blood all over the ground.

Today, I will try to kill a King! Meng Helang muttered under his breath, his gaze fixed on Lang Jie.

He desired to become a King. If he did not have the courage to challenge a King, he would be fated to stagnate in his current realm.

His fighting spirit ablaze, Meng Helang slashed toward the Wolf King, killing countless wolves on the way.

As the Eagle Knightss Third Commander, he had experienced many life-and-death battles. Today, he wanted to experience rising from the ashes of battle in order to comprehend the domain of Kings.

There was no shortage of powerful Wolf Generals. Their ability to rip apart and kill was extremely powerful, and many prison guards died under their claws.

Humans and animal spirits were very different. Humans had inferior physiques to animal spirits but had superior intellect. They could forge weapons that animal spirits could not compete with. Animal spirits were ferocious by nature and had astonishing physiques. Ordinary weapons had difficulty injuring animal spirits. The strengths and weaknesses of the two were clear.

Judging from the battle situation, the humans had the upper hand. Many wolf spirits had fallen to the prison guards crossbows. The prison guards had also used a second team to kill at a closer range.

However, the wolf spirits outnumbered the prison guards, and once they closed the distance, they were more powerful than the prison guards.

When the ten thousand wolves charged together, they finally broke through the three thousand archers. There were a thousand wolf corpses, and five hundred people got bitten to death. The battle was incredibly intense.

After watching the battle for a while, Lang Jie finally showed signs of impatience. It howled and commenced its attack, running so fast that it was like a beam of golden light, leaving lingering light in its wake. It broke through the battlefield and ran directly toward cellblock 8.

Wherever Lang Jie passed, the attacks of many prison guards were rendered useless. Under the pressure of the powerful wolf spirit, some jailers fell dead on the spot; no one could stop it.

Meng Helang had his sights locked on the Wolf King, and he greeted it for the first time with a shout, Wolf king, IMeng Helangam here to fight you!
