Chapter 26 Fighting Silver Wolf(2)
Chapter 26 Fighting Silver Wolf(2)
An explosion occurred and about ten beasts who had been on verge of destroying earth golems were engulfed in the blazing fire and quickly turned to ashes.
Esther, Mina, and his sisters in law who had lost their hope looked at the devastating scene, hope again filling their eyes. When they turned to look at the one who casted this attack they were dumbfounded seeing Max running toward them.
In reality, even Max was stunned at this scene. He didn\'t expect his fireball to be this powerful. Previously when he used the same attack to kill that ape, although he only used around 200 mana points and it was able to explode its head but the resulting attack was nowhere comparable to this one. It should be noted that the beasts who died now were one starred beasts and not novice grade beasts like the previous ape.
What he didn\'t know was that when his mana points exceeded one thousand which was the required amount to become a two-starred mage, his mana underwent a change. Its quality and concentration were many times better and purer. It was one of the reasons that even the system had to issue a warning.
His body which was barely on the level of a human only could hold a maximum of five hundred mana units but he exceeded by more than two times. It was his luck that his body didn\'t explode and only corroded his vitality by two points daily. Even this was a huge cost to him given that he only has ten vitality points.
...
...
Max didn\'t think too much about it and conjured up another fireball but this time he only used 50 mana points and attack the cat-like beast that was charging toward Mina.
Boom!
It struck on its abdomen. An explosion occurred but it was very small compared to the previous one. The cat beast was thrown in the air, its abdomen and hind legs are was scorched, and bones could be seen sticking out. It crashed more than 10 meters away, it struggled to move but its life force was vanishing at a rapid speed. It lay there lifeless, never to get up again.
\'Tch, although my attacks got stronger somehow, but my stamina won\'t last long at this rate.\' Max thought in annoyance. He was started to feel exhausted. He had run all the way from the forest to here, and now was consuming mana very quickly. It was natural that he would feel exhausted.
There were still ten beasts alive including the silver wolf butler George has been fighting. He shouted "Lilly, help them go to a safe place. I\'ll come after taking care of the remaining beasts."
Lilly nodded with a look of worry in her eyes. Even though She didn\'t know how her young master become so strong suddenly, she knew that it was very difficult for him to defeat the remaining beasts, two of which were two starred beasts. Nevertheless, she obeyed his order and went to the women\'s group and helped Esther and Mina up and escorted them to the nearest room while Layla, Lacey and Eva took the unconscious Amelia.
...
An ape and a panther, both two started beasts who were busy fighting Esther and Mina until now looked toward the explosion and witnessed ten of their companions turn into ashes. Their eyes became bloodshot and looked toward the perpetrator.
They stopped attacking the women and lunged toward him. Max who had just shouted his order to Lilly looked at the both of them coming at him with vicious ferocity.
Max quickly casted another fireball and used 200 mana points this time. He knew that these beasts were not as easy to kill as starred beasts.
He pointed at the three-meter tall ape who was coming at him at a fast speed. Max wanted to first kill the panther as it was more than two times faster than the ape and he might die to this panther. But as he wasn\'t sure if he could hit the Panther who was clearly more agile and could easily dodge his attack.
Roar!
Ape roared seeing the big fireball coming at him. It banged its chest with its fists and its fur started to harden. In a moment it became as sturdy as iron and the ape crossed its arms before its chest.
Bang!
The fireball collided with the ape\'s sturdy body and exploded. When the fire stopped burning and the dust settled. A bloody ape with its hands mangled and most of its fur burned appeared in front of him.
Although the ape was a strong two-starred beast with strong defensive skill activated, Max who was also a two-star mage and used almost one-sixth of his mana for the single attack wasn\'t to be underestimated.
The ape was now incapacitated and flopped on the ground. Although it was not dead, it wasn\'t much of a threat now.
"Phew!"
Max exhaled heavily. He looked toward the panther who stopped to see the ape getting injured and then again charged at him. Its speed was so fast that Max couldn\'t even conjure up any fireball when the panther appeared in front of him and jumped at him with its maw open wide, not that he was confident of hitting a target that was moving at such fast speeds.
Max didn\'t hesitate and ducked down while conjuring a small fireball with 20 mana points. Fortunately, Max was able to dodge the panther\'s maw and claws by an heir. He then fired the small fist-sized fireball at its back and didn\'t even stop to look whether it hit it or not.
He sped toward George and shouted "George, you take care of this panther. I will deal with the silver wolf." He could see that the silver wolf wasn\'t in good shape and its movement speed was highly restricted due to heavy injuries.
He was sure that if he conjured a fireball with around 400-500 mana points he could disable or even kill it. But the same was not true for the panther as he knew he couldn\'t hit it before it dodged his attack.
