Chapter 287: 9 dead and 1 alive, the wolf king attacks
"Kill!" Athena roared, her voice echoing across the battlefield like thunder. Her eyes were as firm as iron, without the slightest hesitation or fear. Behind her, three loyal knights followed closely, their steps in unison, as if they were one.
Athena did not flinch in the face of more than 30 werewolves charging at her. The sword in her hand flashed with cold light, as if foreshadowing the upcoming battle. Her posture was agile and graceful, and every step was full of strength and determination.
The wolves roared, showing their sharp fangs and ferocious faces. There were many of them, but Athena was not afraid. She knew that only by fighting could she defend herself.
Athena swung her sword, each swing carrying great power. Her attacks were accurate, and each sword hit the werewolves' vital points. The werewolves fell one after another, and their blood stained the ground red.
The three knights were not to be outdone, and the weapons in their hands were equally sharp. They fought side by side with Athena, forming an impeccable battle formation. They cooperated well, and every attack could bring a fatal blow to the werewolf.
The battle was extremely fierce. Although the werewolves were numerous, they gradually lost their advantage under the heroic resistance of Athena and the knights. In the end, all the werewolves fell to the ground and had no strength to stand up again.
Athena stood on the battlefield, panting. Her face was covered with sweat and fatigue, but her eyes were still firm. She knew that this victory was only temporary, and there were more challenges waiting for her and her team.
But no matter what, Athena will not back down. She will lead her knights and continue to fight until the last moment, because she knows that only by bravely facing difficulties and challenges can she protect everything she cherishes.
The four killed all the werewolves, breathing heavily, with sweat dripping down their foreheads. After a fierce battle, the weapons and equipment of the four were severely damaged and basically lost their proper protective capabilities.
Only Arthur's sword in Alpha's hand remained intact. This sword was one of the holy relics of the Church. Although it was only a replica, it retained some basic functions, one of which was the ability to absorb the blood and soul of the enemy to complete self-recovery.
Alpha took off his equipment one by one. At this moment, these equipments no longer provided much protection and instead restricted his freedom of movement.
"We can't rest. We have to leave here as soon as possible." Just as everyone sat down to rest, Athena urged them, with a hint of anxiety in her voice. After all, this place is not safe, and new dangers may appear at any time.
However, just as they tried to stand up and move on, a sneer suddenly reached their ears: "Haha, do you think you can leave here easily?"
As soon as he finished speaking, more than 20 tall figures emerged from all directions - these were elite werewolves! Each of them was about three meters tall, with well-developed muscles and fierce eyes, obviously not comparable to ordinary werewolves.
Faced with the sudden change, Athena's face turned pale in an instant, and she was obviously frightened by this sudden situation.
The leader of the werewolves was extremely huge, four meters tall, and looked like the legendary wolf king. It was holding a naked woman in its hands, who seemed to be a captured knight of the Church. Of course, the woman had been tortured inhumanely by the werewolf.
"Humans, you should become our food and our playthings." The wolf king said in a low and threatening voice.
"Boss, this woman is really exquisite. After you have finished enjoying her, we also want to have a taste." Another werewolf who was thinner but equally ferocious immediately forgot about the poor woman he was holding in his hands after seeing Athena, and his greedy eyes were fixed on her perfect body curves.
"Are there any more delicious humans?" At this moment, a fat, pig-like werewolf waved his arms and threw a bloody human head into the air, while opening his mouth to chew the remaining meat. To them, humans are just lambs to be slaughtered.
"You go first, I'll stop them." Faced with this critical situation, Athena chose to cover the rear without hesitation. She knew her responsibilities and abilities well, and stepped forward at the critical moment to buy more time for her teammates to escape.
"Lady Athena, you can't stop them, and we can't leave either." Alpha looked at Athena's determined eyes, hesitant in his heart. He knew that the current situation was different from before, and the enemy's strength was far beyond their expectations. However, Alpha made a direct statement.
"We can't just give up! We must unite and face this challenge together." Strong also realized that they could not escape, and chose to fight to the death with a determined look. He knew that this was a battle of life and death, and only by going all out could there be a glimmer of hope.
"Soldier against soldier, king against king." Alpha handed his Holy Sword of Arthur to Athena, and picked up the opponent's sword.
Although Athena's sword had several holes in it, the king's absolute advantage must be maintained at this moment. Alpha knew that only by keeping Athena in the best condition could he better command the battle.
"Lady Athena, now is not the time to be hypocritical. If you lose the battle, we will surely die. If we lose, then avenge us." Alpha looked at Athena's hesitation and tried to persuade her directly. He hoped that Athena could put aside her worries and face the enemy bravely.
In the end, Gunns also chose to stay. Although he knew that his strength was far inferior to Athena and Alpha, if he could hold the wolf king back for a while, then the chances of Athena and Alpha escaping would be greatly increased. He decided to use his life to gain more survival opportunities for his teammates.
"Leave the woman to me, and you can divide the rest of the men." The wolf king looked at Athena with a lewd and cruel smile. At this moment, the wolf king wanted to strip Athena naked and kill her on the spot. His eyes were full of greed and desire, as if he had already regarded Athena as his own possession.
"Leave that fat pig to me." Guns also chose his target. His voice was low and hoarse, revealing a hint of ruthlessness. He locked his eyes on the burly enemy, ready to take him as his prey.
"Then the two of us can only deal with all the remaining enemies." Alpha blocked Strong's choice without waiting for his response. After all, Alpha was the weakest and could only play a supporting role. He knew that his combat power was not as good as other members, but he was good at using magic weapons and strategies to make up for his shortcomings.
Alpha took out the magic pistol and chose ordinary bullets. At this moment, Alpha knew to use a combination of real and fake methods to confuse the enemy. He planned to use the special ability of the magic pistol to create a false attack trajectory, making it difficult for the enemy to understand his true intentions.
"I will hold the enemy back, and you, Alpha Knight, will be responsible for killing them." Although Alpha was extremely shameless, Strong believed in Alpha at this moment. Without Alpha's advice, they would have died in the previous battle. Strong knew Alpha's cunning and wit, so he decided to trust his judgment.
"Okay." Alpha raised his hand and fired two shots. Of course, he chose the head, but it hit the body and it had no effect at all.
The ordinary werewolf before could still leave a little mark or fur, but the werewolf now was directly ejected. According to Alpha's calculation, the defense of the elite werewolf is probably two to three times that of the ordinary werewolf, and it is probably impossible to produce a fatal blow to it even with armor-piercing bullets.
Facing such a powerful enemy, Alpha felt powerless. He knew that his attacks could not cause substantial damage to the elite werewolves, but he did not give up hope. Instead, he strengthened his determination to find a way to defeat these powerful enemies.
The battle broke out in an instant, and Alpha had no time to think about other things. After all, the enemy in front of him was nearly twenty elite werewolves, each of whom had strong combat power and keen perception.
"Strong, don't engage the enemy head-on, use mobile warfare." Alpha has started moving, trying to deal with the crisis through flexible tactics.
Alpha knew that facing so many enemies, it would be meaningless if he just fought to the death. Of course, this was also a choice he made based on his confidence in his own strength.
One shot, two shots, three shots... The continuous shooting did not produce the expected effect, but instead made the werewolves despise him. They actually left their backs to Alpha and chose the bulky Strong as their target.
Seeing this, Alpha immediately switched to a weapon more suitable for close-range combat—another magic pistol that used armor-piercing bullets, and fired two shots. One shot accurately hit the back of a werewolf's head, and the other shot hit his waist and abdomen. Even an elite werewolf would be fatally injured by these two armor-piercing bullets without any precautions.
"I've taken care of one, and there are still eighteen werewolves left, eighteen armor-piercing bullets." Alpha silently calculated the number of enemies and his remaining bullets, while constantly adjusting his battle strategy. He knew that only by staying calm and making full use of his advantages could he survive in this lopsided battle.
"Bib, what happened to you?" Another strong werewolf saw his companion fall down, and immediately rushed over to shake him. But the werewolf's blood was flowing out more and there was no sign of it coming back. His eyes were filled with anger and despair, and a strong desire for revenge surged in his heart.
"I'm going to kill you." The werewolf roared and instantly pounced on Alpha, the culprit. He was extremely fast, like a flash of lightning that cut through the night sky, rushing straight at him with endless murderous intent.
However, Alpha did not panic at all because of the sudden attack of the enemy. He calmly observed the enemy's actions and retreated quickly.
While retreating, Alpha used ordinary bullets to shoot continuously, trying to stop the werewolf from approaching. However, these bullets had almost no effect on the werewolf, only leaving a few small wounds on his body, and could not stop him from moving forward at all.
Alpha knew that facing such a powerful enemy, ordinary means of attack would no longer work. He had to find other ways to deal with this werewolf, otherwise he would face great danger. So he began to think about how to use his advantages and the environment to develop more effective tactics.
Time was running out, and Alpha had no time to hesitate. Just as he adjusted his posture and prepared to deal with a new round of attacks, two more elite werewolves joined the battle. These three werewolves were not only tall and mighty, but also extremely agile. Every time they attacked, they were fierce and powerful, as if they wanted to completely defeat Alpha.
Faced with such an unfavorable situation, Alpha realized that the magic spear in his hand alone could not withstand the opponent's powerful attack. So, after dodging once, he quickly switched to a more flexible long sword as a weapon.
However, even so, the situation did not improve much - less than a moment into the first round, one of the werewolves used his amazing strength and speed to directly knock the sword out of Alpha's hand, making him lose his last chance of counterattack.
After losing his main attack tool, Alpha fell into a more passive situation. He could only rely on his years of combat experience and extremely keen perception of the environment to constantly shuttle and dodge in the narrow space, trying to find any possible opportunity to escape or counterattack.
Unfortunately, as the battle continued, his wounds increased, his physical strength was greatly depleted, his breathing became more and more rapid, and his overall condition became worse and worse. Despite this, Alpha still did not give up hope, because he knew that only by persisting could he find a chance to turn the tables.
Alpha took out his double pistols again. His fingers trembled slightly with nervousness. Bullets fired rapidly and an armor-piercing bullet hit the werewolf's chest. However, there was no blood and flesh flying as imagined. Instead, the bullet was stuck in the werewolf's chest, which made Alpha despair.
Alpha took a deep breath, trying to calm his fear and anxiety. However, at this critical moment, he knew that any hesitation could lead to fatal consequences.
"Go to hell, human." The werewolf roared and leaped up suddenly, preparing to kill Alpha with this ultimate move. There was a fierce light flashing in the werewolf's eyes, as if he had seen the tragic scene of Alpha being torn apart.
At the critical moment of life and death, Alpha used his right hand magic gun to block and his left hand magic gun to shoot. His reaction speed was extremely fast, and he completed these two actions almost instantly. However, at this critical moment, Alpha seemed to have forgotten an important fact: the left hand magic gun was an ordinary bullet.
This negligence made Alpha feel desperate. He knew that ordinary bullets were almost no threat to the werewolf, and although his magic gun in his right hand was powerful, it could not withstand the werewolf's full-strength attack at the same time. This meant that he would face great danger.
However, at this moment, Alpha suddenly thought of a possible solution. He quickly adjusted his posture and aimed the magic gun in his left hand at the werewolf's chest. Although he knew that ordinary bullets could not penetrate the werewolf's muscles, the werewolf's chest had just been pierced by an armor-piercing bullet. Alpha hoped to cause some damage to the werewolf, so as to gain more chances of survival for himself.
