Chapter 288: Self-breakthrough in adversity



Chapter 288: Self-breakthrough in adversity

"Humans are only fit to be our food, and you women are only fit to be my tools for venting my anger." The wolf king's voice was filled with coldness and contempt, and his words were like a sharp blade, piercing people's hearts. Every word seemed to carry a chill, making people shudder.

There was a mad light flashing in the wolf king's eyes, which revealed endless cruelty and bloodthirstiness, as if he had seen the scene of his prey being torn apart, and the image of blood splattering kept playing in his mind.

"You'd better lie down obediently." The wolf king laughed loudly, and his laughter echoed in the air, full of arrogance and confidence. The laughter was as deafening as thunder, making people feel an irresistible fear.

The wolf king's body began to swell, his muscles tensed, and every muscle seemed to be made of steel, full of explosive power. His hair stood up, like a wild beast about to explode, ready to pounce on its prey and tear it into pieces.

However, this is not without reason. The Wolf King has great strength and unparalleled fighting skills. He is the king of the wolf clan and no one can defeat him. Each of his attacks is full of destructive power, enough to make any enemy feel fear. Whether it is speed, strength or agility, he has reached the extreme, as if he is the most perfect hunter in nature.

However, facing such a threat, Athena did not back down. She was not weak, but she was a little impatient because of the wolf king's ridicule. Her heart was full of anger, but more of a firm belief. She knew that only by calming down could she find a way to defeat the wolf king. She took a deep breath, tried to calm her emotions, and prepared for this life-and-death battle.

The wolf king's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he seemed to be able to feel Athena's inner fluctuations. He knew that as long as he put a little more pressure on her, he could completely break her psychological defenses. So, he let out a deafening wolf howl and rushed towards Athena like lightning.

Athena reacted quickly, swinging the long sword in her hand with a dazzling sword light, colliding with the wolf king's claws, making a harsh metal friction sound. Sparks flew, and the power of the two intertwined in the air, forming a fierce confrontation.

The wolf king's attack was as fierce as a storm, and every impact made the earth tremble. His claws slashed through the air, leaving a trail of afterimages, making it difficult to follow his trajectory. Athena dodged the wolf king's attacks with her agile posture, while looking for opportunities to counterattack.

Finally, during a dodge, Athena found a flaw in the wolf king. She seized the opportunity without hesitation and thrust her sword forward, heading straight for the wolf king's heart. However, the wolf king reacted very quickly, quickly dodging the attack and clawing at Athena's shoulder with his backhand.

Athena took a step back and narrowly avoided the fatal blow. She knew that she could no longer passively take the beating and had to take the initiative. So she gathered all her strength and a layer of golden light appeared on her sword. This was the unique sacred power of the Holy See Knights, which could cause great damage to evil creatures.

The wolf king felt the powerful aura coming from Athena, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. But he did not retreat, but pounced on Athena more fiercely. The two entangled again and started a thrilling battle.

The battle lasted for a long time, and both sides were already wounded. However, neither of them had the intention of giving up, and they continued to fight with all their might. Finally, in a contest of strength, Athena, with her tenacious will and firm belief, successfully stabbed the long sword into the body of the wolf king.

However, the wolf king's claws also tore Athena's armor in the fierce confrontation, revealing her proud and powerful figure. The two quickly separated, and each realized that if they continued like this, the biggest possibility would be that both would suffer losses and perish together.

After a brief pause, Athena resolutely took off the broken armor. She knew that the next battle would be more intense, and any hesitation could become a fatal weakness. She took a deep breath, feeling the fighting atmosphere in the air, her eyes were as firm as iron. Her muscles were smooth and powerful, as if carved from white jade, full of unshakable strength.

At the same time, the wolf king showed amazing resilience, and even though Arthur's sword pierced his body, he did not show much damage. The wolf king roared, and his muscles suddenly bulged, as if he had been injected with new strength, and his speed and strength were once again raised to a new level. His eyes flashed wildly, and what dripped from the corners of his mouth was no longer blood, but a mysterious blue liquid that seemed to contain some unknown energy.

The wolf king's movements became more swift, and each attack was as powerful as thunder. Its claws reflected a cold light in the sun, as if each strike could tear through space. The wolf king's figure shuttled across the battlefield like a black lightning, making it impossible to catch its trajectory.

Athena did not retreat, but instead aroused her inner desire to fight. She nimbly dodged the wolf king's attacks while looking for opportunities to counterattack. Her movements were as graceful as dancing, yet full of deadly power. Every attack was accurate and accurate, hitting the wolf king's vital points.

The fight between the two became more intense, and the air around them seemed to be torn apart, making a sharp whistling sound. Countless deep and shallow marks were left on the ground, witnessing this thrilling duel.

At this moment, the wolf king suddenly stopped its fierce attack, and its eyes became extremely sharp, as if it could see through all of Athena's defenses. Then, the wolf king launched a fatal attack with lightning speed, going straight to Athena's heart. This attack was as fast as lightning and so powerful that it seemed to split the air in two.

However, Athena was prepared. She dodged the fatal blow by leaning sideways at the critical moment, and stabbed the wolf king's throat with her backhand. This sword condensed all her strength and faith, and the speed was so fast that it was almost impossible to catch with the naked eye. The wolf king had no time to react and could only watch the tip of the sword approaching his throat.

At this critical moment, the wolf king suddenly opened his mouth and blew out a hurricane, forcing Athena to step back. Taking this opportunity, the wolf king quickly adjusted his posture and prepared to launch the next round of attack.

The battle was once again in a stalemate, with both sides trying their best to defeat the other. However, neither Athena nor the Wolf King had a clear advantage. Their physical strength was gradually exhausted, but their will became stronger. This battle was not only a contest of strength, but also a contest of will and faith.

Finally, after a evenly matched collision, both men took a few steps back at the same time, and the distance between them widened again.

Suddenly, the wolf king howled to the sky, the sound was deafening, as if the whole forest was shaking. With this howl, its body began to gradually become ethereal, and the surrounding air was distorted due to the powerful energy dissipation. Almost in the blink of an eye, the wolf king's speed reached an unprecedented extreme state, like a flash of lightning across the night sky, instantly knocking Athena away.

If Arthur hadn't blocked the fatal blow with his sword in time, the outcome would have been decided, and Athena's bones might even have been broken. However, even so, she still received a huge impact, and her body rolled in the air and fell to the ground, looking particularly embarrassed in the dust.

Before Athena could recover from the shock, the wolf king had already launched a second round of attacks. Its extremely sharp claws almost passed by Athena's neck, and even the air driven by the claws was enough to tear her skin, leaving several deep wounds on her chest. The blood immediately stained her clothes red and dripped down.

"Awoo..." The wolf king's eyes were red, as if burning with rage. Its body had grown to a height of more than five meters. Every time it swung its claws, it could bring great destructive power, causing the surrounding trees to break and collapse, and deep pits appeared on the ground one after another. Facing such a powerful enemy, Athena felt unprecedented pressure and sense of crisis.

The situation on Alpha's side was also very bad. The werewolf's claws hit his magic gun hard, making a dull sound. At the same time, Alpha pulled the trigger and a magic gun bullet shot into the werewolf's chest. However, the bullet did not hit the wound just caused by the armor-piercing bullet, but deviated a little.

"It worked." Alpha was secretly happy, because even such an ordinary bullet penetrated the werewolf's defense and penetrated its body. This result surprised Alpha very much, and he also realized that this was a rare opportunity. He quickly adjusted his posture and quickly retreated to distance himself from the werewolf to avoid being counterattacked by the werewolf.

After gaining his footing, Alpha looked down at the magic gun in his right hand and found that it was severely damaged and almost unusable. Helplessly, he carefully pulled out the remaining three armor-piercing bullets. After all, these precious ammunition could not be wasted. Now, Alpha only had sixteen armor-piercing bullets left, which made him feel a little anxious.

At this moment, Alpha decided to try to shoot the injured werewolf again. He aimed at the target, took a deep breath, and pulled the trigger. However, unexpectedly, this shot did not cause any reaction. It seemed that the successful penetration just now was just an illusion, and the werewolf was not substantially hurt.

Faced with such a situation, Alpha could not help but frown. He knew that the next battle would be more difficult, but he had no intention of giving up. On the contrary, he strengthened his determination and prepared to meet the upcoming challenge.

Alpha's thoughts were like fallen leaves swept by the wind. The feeling just now seemed to have touched some hidden secret, but it disappeared in an instant, like a phantom in the morning mist, out of reach. He tried to catch the end of the inspiration, but was left with only confusion and unwillingness.

Just as Alpha was immersed in the fog of self-reflection, the cruelty of reality suddenly pulled him back - a heavy fist with the sound of breaking wind hit his chest hard, as if hit by a huge hammer. Alpha's body flew out involuntarily, drawing a weak arc in the air, and finally fell heavily on the hard ground. He rolled for dozens of meters before finally stopping. The impact of his back on the rock was dull and painful.

Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, mixed with the smell of dust. Alpha endured the severe pain and slowly climbed up with his tenacious will. The two demon wolves in front of him were staring at him, step by step, with greed and cruelty flashing in their eyes, as if they had foreseen the fall of their prey. Facing such a desperate situation, Alpha knew that continuous shooting alone could not turn the tide, and it was just a futile struggle.

However, just as despair was looming over his body, Alpha's eyes became extremely firm, and his hand holding the magic gun stopped shaking. As the claws of the magic wolf approached again, time seemed to freeze, and the air was filled with tension and determination. At this critical moment, Alpha's heart suddenly emerged with an unprecedented clarity. He understood that it was the fighting spirit, the power hidden in his body, that was the key to turning the tide of the battle.

So, Alpha mobilized the thin but tenacious fighting spirit in his body and cleverly wrapped it around the bullet. This action seemed simple, but in fact it contained a deep understanding of the nature of power.

When the magic wolf's fist was about to touch him, Alpha pulled the trigger. A seemingly ordinary bullet, with the blessing of fighting spirit, turned into an armor-piercing arrow, penetrated the air at an incredible speed, and shot accurately into the opponent's eyes, taking its life instantly.

Although this attack successfully repelled a demon wolf, the huge recoil also took its toll on Alpha. He was knocked out again by the corpse of another werewolf, his body drawing a poignant parabola in the air and finally falling to the ground.

However, even in such adversity, Alpha's mouth curled up into a faint smile, which was a kind of relief of being reborn after risking his life, and also the joy of self-breakthrough.

On the brink of life and death, Alpha not only learned how to use his fighting spirit to increase the power of his bullets, but more importantly, he realized the importance of both wisdom and courage in battle, as well as the possibility of finding a way out in desperate situations. At this moment, he is not only a soldier, but also a fighter who grows up in adversity.

Alpha panted and killed the last werewolf again. However, Strong's condition was very bad. He was surrounded by werewolves and covered in blood. It was a miracle that he could still hold on.

Seeing this, Alpha's heart tightened, and without hesitation, he raised his hand and fired two shots. Although the werewolves were hit in the vital parts, they still stopped attacking due to the pain. However, the remaining werewolves actually separated ten people to attack Alpha. Faced with this situation, Alpha raised his hand and shot. The magic gun can only be loaded with three rounds, and Alpha must try to kill the target before the werewolves get close.

When Alpha finished reloading, the eight werewolves were already in front of him. However, this time Alpha loaded armor-piercing bullets, and with Alpha's fighting spirit entangled, he instantly cleared out the three werewolves in front of him.

There were five more people, Alpha emptied the magazine and reloaded. But the enemy was already close, so Alpha could only hold the sword tightly and fight the enemy in close combat. However, Alpha had already understood the technique of fighting spirit entanglement, and the weapon in his hand had become a magical weapon.
