Chapter 261 Grind me to death? I'll grind you all to death!
"Ouch——!!!"

The howls of wolves echoed one after another, incessantly, terrifying all the other creatures in the area, who wished they could dig three feet into the ground and hide themselves underground.

These sounds could be heard even by the mercenaries on the perimeter.

The overwhelming power emanating from that voice made the hearts of many mercenaries pound, and some cautious individuals began to leave.

They were all curious about what had happened to cause such a continuous howling of wolves.

A wolf pack battle? Or a Warcraft war?
neither.

It was Miss Celia who attacked the wolf pack!
About twenty dire wolves surrounded Celia, circling her and eyeing her menacingly.

Before the direwolf attack, Celia placed her puppet on a tree on the outskirts, putting it into standby mode. She cast a disguise spell to make it look like a tree branch, hiding it and preparing to use magic at any time.

Because Celia was too conspicuous, the wolf pack didn't notice the lump of iron and only looked at Celia.

Celia beckoned her finger to the wolf pack in a very provocative manner.

"That's it? Not very good. If you're so capable, why don't you use a group attack?"

An ice wolf circled around behind Celia and charged again, but was repelled by the water's reversal.

Celia gradually became more proficient at the effects of this spell.

It has gone from slowing down the direwolf's pounce to being able to repel the direwolf.

However, it hasn't reached the point Ross mentioned, where it can both repel enemies and inflict damage at the same time.

It didn't create a passive effect either; it was still an active one.

Celia observed carefully and muttered, "No, all that's surrounding them are second-tier Ice Dire Wolves; none of the third-tier ones have come out..."

As she spoke, Celia paused for a moment, then let out a soft snort: "Is this meant to make me a hunting training target for wolf cubs?!"

The second tier was insufficient for her to successfully master the passive skill.

Celia made a decision: "We must intensify their attack and bring out the Tier 3 Ice Dire Wolves."

She no longer remained passive; instead, she chose to take the initiative.

"Ice Blade!"

Celia gathered ice element around her, which quickly formed several ice blades that rushed outwards.

The most basic use of Ice Blade Impact is something Celia hasn't used in a long time since she learned it; she usually uses it in combination with other spells.

The ice blades struck with incredible speed, piercing the bodies of any wolf cubs that were too close almost instantly, sending them flying to the outer edge of the pack, where they howled in agony.

Celia sensed the direction of the cold and then walked towards the coldest area.

"These dire wolves have created a small, frigid zone within the Protoss Forbidden Lands. The coldest place must be where the wolf king resides. Let's go find the wolf king and have some fun!"

"Ice Blade!"

Celia unleashed several ice blades in succession, sending all the surrounding Tier 2 Icefield Wolves flying.

None of the wolves were actually dead, just slightly injured, but they looked rather pitiful, with blood everywhere.

The main problem is that these second-tier dire wolves haven't fully matured yet, so they're not very valuable.

"Let's see if you guys get anxious."

Celia raised her hand, about to unleash the final ice blade to finish off the fallen direwolf.

An extremely strong sense of crisis came over me, so strong that even the retreat of Mercury retrograde could not stop it.

After quickly using water to disperse the reversal, Celia did not hesitate to raise an ice wall.

boom!
Its claws tore through the ice wall, and the massive dire wolf opened its gaping maw to bite at Celia's neck.

But without its momentum, it obviously couldn't bite Celia.

The girl frowned, raised her staff with both hands, and struck it hard.

Boom!
"Ow!"

Celia shook her hand.

"Such hard bones."

With a raised hand, an ice spike flew towards the dire wolf that had just been hit hard on the head.

The ice spikes struck the direwolf's head, scattering with a bang and forming a cloud of cold air that covered the direwolf's head.

As an ice-type magical beast, the Dire Wolf has high ice resistance, so this amount of damage won't render it incapable of fighting. Therefore—

"broken."

With a soft shout, the ice mist enveloping the direwolf shattered instantly.

With the massive influx of magic, the dire wolf's head didn't shatter, but it still straightened up and fell to the ground.

A blade of ice slashed across its belly, cutting a deep wound from which crimson blood flowed.

A strong smell of blood wafted out, and the hidden Tier 3 wolves nearby began to howl uneasily.

The sense of crisis has intensified.

Ignoring everything else, Celia continued walking forward after examining the direwolf's corpse.

This ice wolf wasn't actually dead; it had just fainted. After all, it was a third-tier ice-type magical beast with extremely high ice resistance.

So Celia simply bled it to stimulate the wolf pack, causing it to die from excessive blood loss while unconscious.

"Second-tier dire wolves aren't very valuable or tasty, but third-tier dire wolves have valuable bones, fur, and tails... We'll collect the corpses later."

As Celia moved forward slowly, the wolves around her changed to third-tier wolves, but they did not move. They simply followed Celia, forming an encirclement and slowly moving inward.

Until a strong sense of crisis came over me.

The Mercury retrograde was quickly dispelled, but the sense of crisis remained. The puppet hidden in the shadows raised its hand, and a metal net appeared behind Celia, blocking the source of the crisis for her.

"It's actually an ice blade."

Celia looked at the direwolf that had unleashed the ice blade and noticed that it was larger than the other direwolves, and a guess began to form in her mind.

"The Icefield Wolf King?"

Celia gave the wolf king a provocative look and beckoned to it.

"Hurry up and let's see if you wear me down or I kill you!"

The wolf king was clearly more intelligent than the other dire wolves; it recognized Celia's provocation and immediately roared in anger.

The three-tiered ice wolves that had surrounded her immediately launched an attack on Celia.

only--

"Even so, you are still following instinctive tactics and will not attack together before taking down the enemy, which makes things easier."

Facing the lunge, Celia used Water Reversal to ward off the attack.

Faced with the sneaky incoming spell, Celia chose to dodge, directing the spell to fly around and hit other dire wolves.

Before long, the direwolves stopped using magic and instead pounced, each attack becoming more ferocious than the last.

As soon as Celia turns around, one or two dire wolves will rush in from behind or to the side.

If it were any other prey, it would have been exhausted by such a siege.

Celia, on the other hand, wasn't worried at all.

With the receding of Mercury retrograde and enhanced sense of danger, things became increasingly smooth, and I gradually became more adept at handling things, moving from initial confusion to mastery.

With each use of her magic, she gradually gained more control over its application, eventually becoming more passive.

Surrounded by wolves, she strolled leisurely, slowly approaching the coldest area.

Here, she saw a huge cave.

Easily dodging the ice blades that the receding waters couldn't completely block, Celia surveyed the cave before her.

"Is this the wolf's den? Let's go in and see if there's any treasure."

With that, Celia entered the cave.

She suddenly noticed that the dire wolves had stopped attacking and were circling outside the cave instead of coming in.

At the same time, a faint, peculiar pollution entered her body.

She paused for a moment, then looked into the depths of the cave. The mage released his hand, forming threads that probed into the cave walls.

A moment later, she blinked.

"The runes of a magic circle? Is this a heretical stronghold?"
