Chapter 59, Another Operation: Hunting Down the Son of the Wolf God

The team's base and living quarters.

Yunzhu, Mengyu, and Zhou Yu were waiting here, and it looked like they had been waiting for some time.

"Brother Lin, you've finally emerged from seclusion."

Yunzhu immediately gave her a big hug, her tail naturally wrapping around her wrist.

Lin Ran smiled and caught her. Meng Yu quietly emerged from the shadows and jumped onto Lin Ran's back.

Zhou Yu watched quietly, feeling a little bored, so she started filing her nails.

Let's play around for a while.

Lin Ran put down the two catgirls, sat down in the living area, and after tidying up, found that there was very little information about the son of the wolf god.

So I asked Zhou Yu.

"Can we determine the area of ​​activity for the Son of the Wolf God?"

"Yes, the corresponding number of bad things will increase."

Zhou Yu said in a hoarse voice.

"Leave it to me, get ready to go."

Lin Ran waved his hand and gave Zhou Yu twenty pieces of earth crystals to help her recover.

After taking the document, Zhou Yu paused for a moment and said, "Captain, let's use the proceeds from this mission to offset the debt from the Earth Crystal."

"it is good."

Lin Ran readily agreed, saying that even if Zhou Yu didn't say anything, he would tell her after the mission was over, and that unless there were resources specifically for Zhou Yu, the cost would be deducted accordingly.

The four people set off in a hovercar.

……

Wilderness, unknown cave.

"Little Wolf God, my people have received news that many awakened humans are investigating your whereabouts. Following your instructions, no clues have been left behind. Isn't this a bit too cautious?"

The burly werewolf bowed and spoke to the werewolf in blood-red armor in front of him.

The young wolf god/son of the wolf god turned around, his eyes fierce and his expression ferocious.

"Gao Ming of the cat-human race is dead. I saw how he died. He was killed by a second-tier human. Gao Ming was killed without any chance to fight back."

"If you were to attack someone skilled in martial arts, without resorting to a sneak attack, how confident would you be in instantly killing them?"

"I'm not sure."

The burly werewolf lowered his head.

The Little Wolf God added, "I received information that Lin Ran, the human who killed Gao Ming, has a history of conflict with me, and I might be his next target."

"Tristan also has conflicts with him, but that damned elf actually thinks she's not afraid of that human, she's courting death!"

"Phew~ Are the powerful warriors arranged by the clan arriving soon?"

"No, there are extraordinary beings guarding this place. Only five people at the mid-stage of the second tier can enter. If the secret realm hadn't opened, even we wouldn't be able to get close to this place," said the burly werewolf.

"Five mid-stage Tier 2 warriors, plus you and me, and five wolf warriors, should be a force to be reckoned with. I can sense the danger approaching. Get ready."

"Yes."

The burly werewolf left.

The little wolf god stared into the darkness, gritted his teeth, took out a drop of blood sealed in a crystal, shattered it, and stained it onto his armor.

The blood-red armor became even darker, almost turning black.

"Human Lin Ran, come on then!"

……

Inside the hovercar.

"It's about two kilometers ahead."

"Get off the bus and fly over."

Lin Ran put away the hovercar and led the three of them to land before moving forward. Zhou Yu pointed out the direction, while Lin Ran had set up a spirit shield around her just in case.

"They saw us inside the cave."

Zhou Yu stopped and pointed to the cave ahead.

Mengyu retreated into the darkness behind Lin Ran, merging into it and disappearing.

Yunzhu gripped the straight sword, the crimson flames staining the blade and illuminating an area of ​​dozens of meters in radius.

Lin Ran's gaze was like a mountain cave, infused with dark spiritual energy; darkness held no hindrance in his eyes.

Inside the cave were five tall werewolves. The leader waswolf was dressed in full black and red armor, with a faint bloody glow that made one's vision slightly blurry, as if being pulled into another world.

Lin Ran focused her mind slightly and then abandoned this illusion.

Eye Technique: Instant Slash!

Without any preamble, we got right to work.

With a loud bang, the armor suddenly emitted a layer of bloody light, blocking the entrance to the cave. Countless vortexes flowed on the surface of the bloody light, and each small vortex contained dozens or even hundreds of sharp barbs.

A crimson fire blade appeared out of thin air, like a crescent moon, glowing with a reddish light, but without emitting any heat, its spiritual energy completely sealed inside.

The fiery blade collided with the blood-red light, the barbs shattered instantly, the vortex was torn apart, revealing the true form of the blood-red light—pure blood elemental power.

The blood essence circulated rapidly, attempting to reconstruct the barrier and vortex, but it was no match for the speed of the fire blade. It was easily torn open and forced its way in.

The little wolf god was at the very front and was hit head-on by the fire blade.

The black and red color on the surface of the armor surged, which was highly compressed blood essence, transforming into a barrier 15 centimeters thick. This caused the speed of the fire blade to drop sharply, dissipating its force, until the fire blade exhausted its power and dissipated into thin air.

The battle, which had been fought at the last possible moment, ended. The blood-red light that had enveloped the cave entrance shattered, and the armor burst forth with brilliance. Only then did the little wolf god and the other werewolves react.

"withdraw!"

The little wolf god decisively retreated, rushing into the depths of the cave and disappearing underground, with the four werewolves following closely behind.

"Chase."

……

underground.

The intricate network of passages did not stop Zhou Yu from using his magic to find his way, and the group eventually arrived at an underground cavern.

Lin Ran supported herself with five layers of shields: Dragon Scale Shield, Earth Spirit Shield, Fire Spirit Shield, Wind Spirit Shield, and Dark Spirit Shield.

The four-layered spirit shield enveloped Zhou Yu, Yun Zhu, and Meng Yu, while the dragon scale shield provided single-target protection.

The cave is not dark; it is inlaid with objects resembling luminous pearls on the ceiling, illuminating most of the cave, which is about two to three hundred meters in diameter.

Zhou Yu stopped and pointed to a spot on the ground about ten meters away.

"That's a formation used by the werewolf race. They usually disguise themselves as ordinary cracks, making them easy to overlook."

Lin Ran used her dark spiritual energy to realize that something was wrong with the place Zhou Yu was pointing to; without the hint, she might not have noticed.

"Okay, how many werewolves are there in total?"

Lin Ran glanced ahead and saw six second-tier werewolves standing in the distance, surrounding a peculiar statue, seemingly worshipping something.

Zhou Yu closed his eyes and searched for a while, then said, "There are a total of twelve Tier 2 werewolves, four of which are mid-Tier 2, and the rest are early-Tier 2."

"Our route has been blocked by werewolves, and they are approaching."

"No problem, let's get started."

Lin Ran drew his ring-pommel sword, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, and activated his pupil technique based on fire spiritual energy.

A crimson shield appeared out of thin air around the six werewolves who had gathered together, blocking all the power of the eye technique.

Yunzhu moved swiftly, silently rushing towards the werewolf, while Mengyu hid in the darkness, waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

Lin Ran remained standing beside Zhou Yu, ready to handle any unforeseen circumstances.

Yunzhu rushed to the vicinity of the six werewolves, and crimson flames ignited around the outside of her straight blade, then adhered to the blade itself, and slashed down at the blood-red shield.

Zhou Yu's gaze locked onto the crimson shield, and after Yun Zhu raised her blade,

"Cursed Spirit!"

The crimson shield dimmed instantly, and the shield in front of Yunzhu almost disappeared, easily pierced by the straight blade. The crimson blade energy rushed into the werewolf's body, instantly blasting it into a bloody mist.

The blood mist did not dissipate; instead, it was absorbed by the strange statue in the center of the werewolf's body.

Mengyu quietly stepped out of the darkness, her dagger slicing across the neck of a werewolf, severing its head.

In an instant, the werewolf's body became shriveled, and the blood mist was swallowed by the statue.

Four more streaks of blood-red light flew out from the statue and rushed into the bodies of the four werewolves. They stood up straight, their eyes bloodshot, and pounced on Yunzhu and Mengyu.
