00030 Party Play

Kwaang!

The moment I kept moving, a great cry burst out. Azin was faithful to the warning of his senses and instincts that gave him chills all over his body. Kwak 'jic! The ground shatters and splinters. Arjun quickly rises up from the ground.

It was a giant wolf with golden hair. The size itself is the biggest of all wolves. A tiger... No, it's bigger than a wolf. Azin hunches back and looks at the animal staring at him.

That's not a screaming beast. It's just a monster blocking the path to the owner of this forest. He was also the one who destroyed and backed players who were also challenging the boss. One at a time. Ajin pulls his foot forward for a few moments without slowing down his tension.

At that moment, the golden wolf charged in. Fast! Hefty, too, but that wolf is different from the wolf that's been roaming these woods all this time. The golden eyes slip and pull out a long glare in the dark. Azin hurriedly opened the book.

The swinging claw scratches at the vision made of a thousand magical signs. After returning to the wolf's side in the gap, Azin lowers himself towards the wolf's side, which holds its power. The Thousand Wads of Bombardment that reached 2-star. A fist filled with strength burns against the wolf's side.

But the wolf does not stagger, even if it is beaten. As the wolf reveals its teeth, it immediately turns and tries to bite the pain. Azin hurriedly leans back as he looks at the approaching Agari. Qaczyk! The air is crawling with fear.

‘This should be enough to wipe them out. ’

He steps back and kicks his tongue small. As the forest deepens, that monster will continue to emerge. The closer you get to the Wailing Beast, the more often you'll come out. Azin did not hesitate to open the Thousand Gardens of Blood. As his strength fades, a red force forms in Azin's right hand. Azin lunges at the wolf while maintaining his strength.

Kuang! Your outstretched hand severs the wolf's side in a single blow. The wolf's body cannot handle the absolute power of strength. Azin looks at the wolf lying in the basin or on the ground and grabs his hand. I can't believe I'm not even a boss monster. I never thought I'd use a Forge. Ajin checks the history of his exit by kicking his tongue. The bloodstream was restoring its strength as it rotated, but the amount of strength that fell at once was too large. Azin grabs the wolf's head without hesitation and unfolds the energy drain. The amount of energy sucking out a dead corpse is marginal, but better than not.

‘Let's go a little further. ’

For a moment, he thought about it. Should we continue to take losses and go into the forest? The purpose of coming here is to search for the roaring beast. I didn't even have the thought of killing him in the first place. I'm prepared to die at least once. However, I am thinking of obtaining information even if I die. How powerful the howling beast is. What you lack.

‘Coming in.'

While weighing on it, Azin concluded. Once we get here, we keep going in. The golden wolf that blocked the path to the boss can end quickly with a wrench. Of course, there will be no history of such battles.

However, even so, it is not necessary because the common hammer does not work. It is too late to reduce losses and combat.

‘Party hunting is a possibility. ’

His strength and Daisy's party. If you use it, it shouldn't be difficult to penetrate the Golden Wolf while reducing the damage. To do that, we need to get Daisy's party here. It's not difficult. Ajin has already decided to grow Daisy's party. If Ajin fights properly, there's no problem hunting a pack of Silver Wolves. The battle will be swift and the party will grow faster.

‘Before you reach the Cliffs of Incense, hunt down and bite the undefeated boss monsters. ’

If you don't feel bad about it, you can convince them. It's too early to think about it. Azin is on the move.

The Golden Wolf appeared not too bored. This damn forest becomes darker and darker as it goes deeper, and the golden wolf pierces through its darkness and attacks Azin. Despite being nearly exposed to attacks several times, Azin has always avoided direct damage through the Thousand Horse News. Enhanced by the Marathon method, the body's internal air explosion and the expansion of the air was as fast as before.

Most of the attacks have been turned into assaults. I thought it would not be a bad idea to grow the Thousand Garden River, which is not used well this time. While the gap opened the energy drain on the corpse of the wolf, Azin recovered his strength to Hanemoth, who was gathering while hunting the Silver Wolf at dawn yesterday. It was the moment the energy drain was cooked was revealed. If you recover this way, you do not need to have a HP potion.

How far did it go? About 30 minutes from where the Golden Wolf appeared. It would have taken us a long time to finish the battle with a hopper if we hadn't used one. Azin stops walking while checking the amount of strength.

The landscape of the forest changed.

There was no tree that soared like a stake through the sky. There are no swaying bushes. Is it the end of the forest? Azin puts his hand on the tree next to him.

In front of him was a small lake. Beyond the lake, you see a high cliff. It looks like it can reach the cliffs of the seal this way as well. But to get close to the cliff, you have to cross the lake.

The problem is that there's a monster in front of the lake.

Yeah, it was a monster. Azin swallows his saliva and looks at the creature sitting crouched in front of the lake. What should I call that? Azin looks at the monster while holding his fist, which is damp with tension.

It was big. It seemed to be twice the size of Ajin. You have the wolf's head, but the creature does not crawl on all fours. The creature, like a human... sits on its butt with its long hind legs on the ground, head down.

Werewolf!

Azin realizes what that monster is. Among the single games we played before the Moorish winds, there was a game called the "Magic Age." It was a game aimed at medieval fantasy worlds, and if the Moorish winds made it their content, then the main content of the magical age was glamorous magic. The Moorish Wind, the Age of Magic. And then there's the future of human evolution as the content of superpowers. These three single games were developed by First's developer, Gladiolus, who perfected the virtual reality game before First.

Werewolf. When he played in the age of magic, Azin faced that monster a few times. To put it simply, Wear Wolf is a werewolf that grows stronger at night on a full moon. I can't believe the Wailing Beast, the owner of the crazy forest, was Wear Wolf. Azin frowns.

Werewolves are tricky monsters. I don't know how much data from previous single game series was referenced in First, but it bothers me if that werewolf has the same specs as the magic era of werewolves.

Werewolves are strong and fast. But the most difficult thing is the resistance to magic and the chaotic wounds are not treated as wounds.

[... smells of prey...]

It's hard to deal with alone. Once he retreats... As Azin thinks that way, he moves back a few moments, his voice, mixed with the beast's crying, pounds his mind. In the frozen eyes of Azin, you can see the werewolf's head slowly lifting up.

Grey mane hair, muscular body that looks like it will burst. Close-eyed. Sinking, blood-red eyes.

The moment it reached him, pain seemed to relax his legs. My body trembles and shakes. What the hell is this? Why is my body shaking?

Fear?

[Come here.]

The werewolf slowly rises to its feet. A three-meter orb stands on the ground and backs up the lake. It's not night yet. There are no trees near the lake, so bright sunlight pours over the lake. The sparkling surface of the lake feels beautiful.

But there is a monster in front of that beautiful lake.

[Come, eat from me.]

Werewolf stood still and said to Azin, The breath of a crouching beast. Creepy teeth every time the mouth moves. Ajin takes a step back, swallowing a gulp.

We have to run. We can't deal with that monster right now. Navigation? Don't be silly, this is dog death. It's impossible to fight properly, but what's the search for? Oh, right. A quest for fear. Ajin gave up fighting. It was a rational, realistic judgment.

[Don't miss out.]

Not for monsters.A rational and realistic judgment about monsters is that they don't miss the prey in front of them. It would be desirous to chew that and satisfy hunger. The moment the knee of a wear-wolf standing with both legs bent.

Kuaaang! The leaping Wear Wolf falls in front of Azin. The shock caused Azin's body to fly back up and shake the tree. The werewolf, standing down on the ground, raises a giant arm and swings its razor-sharp claws forward. A dense tree flew away like a log.

[I'm hungry.]

Leaning back toward the squatting azin, the werewolves see this.

What are we gonna do?

Azin looks at the nearby werewolf's head and thinks: No, that's too much. Through a recent leap, Azin was convinced of it. Even if you try your hardest, that monster will catch up with you if you take a few leaps. Damn black-and-white bitch. You told me to catch these monsters? Ajin gritted his teeth. The electric car was clear. I couldn't feel the pain, the hope that I would be able to catch this monster with my solo play.

Logging out...

Not possible. Even if he logs out and logs in, he will only be logged in here. If we do, we'll face that monster again. Either you run to town, or you die here. Either way, you get to town.

‘You can't run away. Then... "

He rises to his feet, thinking about it. As a result of death, you will receive a four-hour penalty, but it would be better to do something than run away with nothing and die. Azin grips his fist while grinding his teeth.

[Are you going to resist, Prey?]

Looking at Azin, Wear Wolf twists his mouth. Can the wolf laugh? Twisted mouths, exposed teeth, and crooked eyes... Agin thinks the monster is smiling. Probably, yes. It's hard to smile even when talking. It made Azin's chest collapse. Damn you, you're so proud...! Azin draws up a river of blood from the thousand bloods. The young force was surging in both arms.

Racunda?

Wear Wolf stops when he sees it. Racunda, do they know the smell of Raw Snow? Whatever it takes. Azin rushes at the moment the wolf stops. Azin's body splashes up from the ground. Ajin's fist leaps to the head of Wear Wolf, a short distance away from two meters.

[No, you're not. You're too slow.]

A wedge! Azin's swinging fists sweep through the air in vain. Wear Wolf, who quickly retreated by lightly dragging his feet, looked at the stretched sieve azin.

[But it's slow, but it's still a threat. It's nothing compared to her, but...]

The mumbling Wear Wolf tilts its head.

[Are you here to kill me?]

“Come, you wolf...! ”

Azin rushes back. The balance made by unfolding the Thousand Horse Vision hid the appearance of Ajin while it was clear. Azin moves away from the vision and lunges at the Wear Wolf.

[Are you trying to kill me with that skill?]

Qajik!

The accident stopped momentarily. When he regained consciousness, Azin was flying through the air. After that, my mouth widens with horrific pain. Your left arm narrows and rattles like a rag. How? Kwa-dang! Arjin grips his left arm with a crouching groan.

Valkun?]

Wear Wolf and Valkun clamor toward the fallen azin. Azin raises his body while enduring the pain. The smashed left arm sags.

I didn't see it. It moved, it attacked itself. I felt this helplessness in this game for the first time since I had the black and white peppermint. Raw snow scent. I understand. She is the Bishop of the Church, and the Teacher of Azin. But I never thought monsters would feel this helpless.

Thinking about it, Azin had never felt threatened by a monster in the beginning of this game. Repetition of the tutorial, the help of Acacia, the encounter with Raw Snow, and the betrayal of Shake. Through it, Azin gained an absolute strength that he could not attain to that level. The horseman and his prowess made it impossible for any wolf in the wild to harm him.

But it's different now.

I can't win. "

Azin saved a fortune.
