Chapter 168 The Formidable Strength of the Werewolf Clone

The spider knight's death screams immediately alerted his companions, who turned around to look and witnessed the horrific scene!

Immediately, the remaining Spider Knights were filled with shock and disbelief!

Because they know all too well how much force would be needed to create such a tearing effect on the human body.

First, the Spider Knights were physically very strong. Second, they were protected by excellent knight armor. It was hard for them to imagine how such a weak species as the human wizard apprentice could unleash such tremendous power.

But then, when they clearly saw the figure, they understood why this had happened.

A ferocious black werewolf, at least 2.3 meters tall and covered in thick fur, stood upright behind the recently deceased Spider Knight. Its thick, sharp werewolf claws were still dripping with crimson blood onto the ground.

It seems to be declaring a powerful demeanor!

However, its dark green eyes and protruding canine teeth give it a more ferocious than majestic appearance to onlookers.

When Gildas's merciless eyes swept over the remaining Spider Knights, they immediately felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over them, chilling them to the bone!

"(Elf language) Retreat immediately and report back to the leader that a suspected formal wizard force has been discovered!" A spider knight gave the order with a serious expression.

"(Elf) Are you able to leave?" Gildarts' werewolf clone asked in Elvish.

This immediately made the remaining Spider Knights look as if they had seen a ghost!

"How...how can you speak Elvish!" one of the spider knights exclaimed in surprise, his tongue tied in knots.

But instead of a reply from the werewolf clone, he received an instant-cast spell – Clumsy!

Gildas' werewolf clone swung its claws, and a cloud of dark green mist appeared out of thin air above the spider knight who had asked the question, disappearing into it instantly.

The spider knight immediately felt as if his limbs were bound by heavy shackles, greatly affecting both his movement and his attacks!

Once the spell was cast, the werewolf clone immediately rushed toward the spider knight with lightning speed, intending to deliver a fatal blow.

Seeing this, the other Spider Knights rushed to the rescue, but Stefan and Harley were no pushovers either.

Especially after witnessing Gildarts' werewolf clone tearing apart the Spider Knight, their fighting spirit soared, and their blood boiled!

Stefan kept in mind Gildas's instructions—to have him and Harley hold off the enemy.

Harley, who had been chased by these spider knights all the way, was already filled with resentment. Now that he had a chance to fight back, he naturally did his best to use his magic!

Immediately, Slowing, Weakness, and even Shadow Curse were unleashed by the two, raining down on the other Spider Knights.

Although the two did not directly use offensive level zero magic, the various spells they chose to use made the spider knights who were trying to rescue them even more miserable, making the already somewhat delayed rescue even more hopeless.

Just as Gildas's werewolf clone rushed towards the spider knight who was under the spell of clumsiness, the spider knight's expression hardened, and a huge companion spider rushed out from the side and back of the werewolf clone.

If the werewolf clone ignores everything and attacks him directly, then obviously his own companion spider will also deliver a fatal blow to the opponent!

Trade wounds for wounds!

This was the Spider Knight's decision!

This decision cannot be described as anything but ruthless.

But this time he chose the wrong opponent.

Because this time his opponent was an avatar of a formal wizard. For a formal wizard, the number of battles he had experienced was almost a hundred!

Gildas is considered one of the best among first-level wizards.

The werewolf with a ferocious face suddenly gave the spider knight an appreciative look, but the next second, his size increased dramatically, and he became more than 2.5 meters tall.

"Claw Storm!"

With a terrifying wolf howl, the werewolf's already exceptionally sharp claws suddenly grew another ten centimeters longer, and at the same time, the werewolf clone began to spin like a top.

This greatly alarmed the Spider Knight and his companion Spider, as all they could see were sharp claws moving so fast they left afterimages.

The sudden gust of wind sliced ​​through their skin, causing it to crack inch by inch.

They tried to avoid it, but it was too late!

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"

A sound like tearing leather rang out repeatedly.

When everyone came to their senses again, they saw that the Spider Knight and his companion Spider had been cut into fist-sized pieces of flesh by the werewolf's claws, which were swung at super-fast speed. The pieces of flesh were piled on the ground, one in front of the other, accompanied by a strong smell of blood.

After unleashing its ultimate move, the werewolf clone fell silent, standing calmly to the side, motionless.

This made the remaining two Spider Knights' faces show their fear!

Although they are the elite of the night elves, they are also afraid when faced with enemies whose combat power far exceeds their own!

It can be said that they have completely lost the courage to continue fighting.

Gildas wasn't as relaxed as he appeared; that attack just now was almost his full strength.

With the enhancement of the werewolf clone's innate sorcery, Frenzy, he unleashed one of his ultimate moves, Claw Storm, which also consumed a lot of his physical and mental energy!

However, he didn't show it at all!

As a seasoned and experienced sorcerer, he knew the importance of momentum in battle.

It can not only strike the enemy, but also inspire teammates!

But the fact that Gildarts stood there without batting an eye after unleashing his ultimate move was seen by everyone as incredibly profound.

Stefan and Harley, on the other hand, were completely in awe of Gildas's strength.

At this moment, they were like chickens on steroids, relentlessly attacking the fallen enemy and causing trouble for the Spider Knight, throwing out one level zero spell and scroll after another.

Gildas' werewolf clone, after taking a few seconds to recover, swept away the remaining two spider knights who had already lost their will to fight, along with several companion spiders, like a whirlwind.

"Princess Dolores will avenge us!" The last Spider Knight to breathe his last, who seemed to be a squad leader, made Gildas frown at his last words.

He knew the meaning of the word "Your Highness" among the night elves, and coupled with the name Dolores, which clearly had a feminine connotation, the answer was rather obvious.

It seems highly likely that the Dark Night faction was led by a high-ranking Spider Woman who entered the Norman Secret Realm.

As a formal wizard, Gildas was well aware that the strength of the high-ranking spider woman far exceeded the upper limit of the rules of the Norman Secret Realm.

However, it is still unknown what kind of secret technique the other party used to enter the secret realm.

Gildas shook his head, ceasing his speculation, and after reverting to human form, rested to the side.

Stefan and Harley dutifully began cleaning up the battlefield and searching for loot, but the corpses, already cut into pieces, offered little of value.

Because, even if it originally existed, it has now been torn to shreds by the werewolf's claws!

The two men glanced at Gildas sitting to the side from time to time, their eyes filled with awe!

They knew that there was a huge difference in combat power between them and formal wizards, but they did not expect that even a mere clone of Gildas, whose strength was suppressed to the rules of the Norman Secret Realm, could be so terrifying.

If they were the opponents, they thought about it and realized they probably wouldn't be much better than those Spider Knights.

Gildas took out the Mysterman Tor Orb from his pocket and tested the brightness from different directions. Now, the orb could sense the light from both the front and back directions.

This clearly means that his remaining two teammates are in two almost opposite directions.

However, after hearing the Spider Knight mention Doross on his deathbed, he felt a little worried about his son Donato.

After thinking it over, Gildas decided to take Stefan and Harley and speed up their journey forward.

Although he didn't know whether the one holding the jewel directly in front of him was Robert or his son Donato, staying put and waiting would be too passive!

What if Donato encounters the Night Elf elites led by Dolores?

The scene was too beautiful for him to imagine!

Sometimes, caring too much can lead to confusion!

Unbeknownst to Gildas, the three of them were not rushing towards Doneto, but rather towards the direction of the Golden-Scaled Lizard's cave!

Norman Secret Realm.

Inside the largest wooden building, which was originally the daily supply point for the three major colleges.

A beautiful woman with an alluring face and a graceful figure was sitting at the head of the table, listening to a report from a spider knight.

If Richard were present, he would surely be surprised by how similar this beautiful woman's appearance was to Stephanie's current body. However, upon closer inspection, he would find that the beautiful woman in front of him had maroon hair and a more slender waist and face.

"Your Highness Dolores, our Spider Knights' losses have been rising sharply since half a day ago. Currently, the 15th and 21st squads have lost contact, and the three search teams have also lost contact."

"Judging from the feedback from our several teams just now, they have all encountered extremely powerful wizard apprentices. I guess it is because the human wizards on the surface launched a counterattack and teleported a number of extremely powerful human wizard apprentices into the Norman Secret Realm."

A handsome leader of the Spider Knights was bowing slightly, respectfully reporting to Dolores.

Dolores, on the other hand, tapped her fingers rhythmically on the armrests of the chair.

"Tap tap, tap tap!"

The sight of fair fingers striking out a powerful rhythm is truly delightful.

"Oh, the 15th and 21st squads, they should both be five people each, right? To be able to eliminate them, it seems the enemy this time was indeed a bit troublesome. Portia, go and mark the location where they disappeared on the map."

Dolores raised her slender finger and pointed to a huge map of the Norman Secret Realm on the table in front of her.

As the night elves who have been operating the Norman Secret Realm for many years, they naturally have more detailed maps than the human wizards on the surface.

After marking the locations where several Spider Knight squads and search teams disappeared, Portia was immediately stunned.

If you connect the points in front of you, they will almost form a straight line!

"Your Highness Dolores, this..." Portia seemed to have guessed something, but still said with some disbelief.

"Portia, mark the time they disappeared!" Dolores said, her beautiful eyes fixed on the map with great interest.

After Portia finished marking it, the entire pattern became exceptionally clear, with a huge arrow marked on the map.

The direction in which the number increases indicates the direction the other party is moving, which is now indicated by Portia using arrows.

Based on this, the opponent's direction of movement is slightly below the core area of ​​the Norman Secret Realm, moving from east to west.

"It seems the surface human wizards have sent a very interesting opponent this time," Dolores said with a charming smile.

In Dolores and Portia's view, it was clear that the disappearance of these groups of Spider Knights members was the work of the same person or the same team, otherwise these points could not possibly be in a straight line.

However, if Richard and Gildas were present, they would realize that this was clearly a patchwork of their travel routes.

In other words, a small section is the route Richard took, while the remaining large section is the route Gildarts and his two companions took.

Since Dolores took charge of this place, she has encountered several organized counterattacks from the wizard apprentices within the secret realm.

Apart from the first time Dolores showed interest in taking action and eliminating a rather troublesome human wizard apprentice, she had no desire to intervene in the remaining battles.

She had originally planned to hunt the Black-Scaled Earth Dragon Beast tomorrow.

The Blackscale Earth Dragon is a dragon-born creature that has been extinct for a long time. It is said to have a trace of the bloodline of an ancient black dragon. Some time ago, a Shadow Hunter discovered its traces in a hidden cave in the core area of ​​the secret realm.

After several days of continuous searching by the Spider Knights, its activity range has been basically determined.

The second task assigned by the mistress was to extract the blood essence of the Black Scale Earth Dragon Beast. Because the Black Scale Earth Dragon Beast was a dragon descendant, its combat power far exceeded that of ordinary monsters, and its strength was even stronger than that of a high-level spider woman.

If it weren't for the special item bestowed upon her by the matriarch, even Dolores wouldn't have been very confident that she could kill the Blackscale Earth Dragon Beast within the rules of the Norman Secret Realm.

But it now appears that the hunt will have to be postponed for a few more days.

First, I need to eliminate these "little mice" that have sneaked into Norman's Secret Realm!

Dolores slowly rose, revealing her beautiful body veiled by a few strands of gauze, and said, "Portia, you're in charge of the defense here. I'll take the first, third, ninth, and twelfth squads to check it out."

"Yes, Your Highness Dolores! Portia will fight to the very end!" Portia, dressed in exquisite knight's armor, gave a solemn nobility's salute.
