MMORPG: Rise of the Primordial Godsmith
chapter-504

"Awoo!!!" Letting out yet another howl as it gave a set of orders to the other wolves, the wolf king lunged forward with greater force, hoping to catch its enemies by surprise as it opened its maw wide to bite down.

"Uwowogghh!" Realizing what its opponent was about to do, the plant commander ordered the three accompanying it to tank the blows, prompting the three to raise their arms once more.

Whoosh!

Without even caring as to where its bite would land, the wolf king bit down with full force, only to realize that its attack had landed once more on the other summons accompanying the plant commander. Then again, even though the bite from the wolf king was mostly blocked by the defense set up, that did not mean that the plant summons themselves were unharmed.

Seeing as landing yet another bite proved ineffective in the current situation, the wolf king took advantage of its body being anchored to one of the plant summons, slashing down with both of its claws in a bid to deal great damage to one of the summons.

Unexpectedly, this strategy had worked, rendering one of the plant summons immobile as the force behind the wolf king's attack was more than enough to cut the one it had bit down on in two.

"Awooo!!!" Seeing that their leader was finally gaining an advantage over the opponent, the other wolves had become motivated to push their bodies to the limit, taking on a more aggressive approach as they fought against their respective enemies.

"Uwaarrgghh…" Letting out a deep groan in response to one of the plant summons' deaths under the paws of the wolf king, the plant commander seemed to have become furious as it commanded the two remaining summons accompanying it to retreat, giving the wolf king time to rest as the latter wondered what the plant commander wanted to do.

However, contrary to the wolf king's expectations, thinking that the plant commander would have launched an all-out offensive against the wolf king alone, the plant commander instead asked the two plant summons to stand idly in front of it before…

Cutting the two just like how the first one died.

Seeing the vigor within these two plant summons gradually disappear as the wolf king witnessed it happen in front of it, the wolf king found it slightly amusing that the plant commander would cull its own force in an act of desperation. Though, before the wolf king could even respond in a way that showed its amusement…

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Rumble…

Out of nowhere, the ground within the plant commander's vicinity began to rumble, prompting the wolf king to increase the distance separating the two of them as it faintly felt a bit of fear as it looked at what stood before it. In fact, Hal, who could witness the entire fight through the wolf king's senses, was also left at a loss for words as he watched what was happening.

"Isn't this a bit too much? We still have to take the inheritance into consideration, no?" Looking at Loreina on the other side of the crater, whose attention was fully focused on infusing mana into the plant commander, Hal sent a message to the young woman through the chat function.

"Against you?" In response, Loreina allocated a bit of her attention towards Hal before replying to the message with her words. "Not at all."

"If anything, I'd say I escalated our fight quite nicely."

"[Plant Battalion: Root Juggernaut]!"

Swoosh!

Sending out one massive wave of her own mana towards the plant commander that stood there, Loreina watched as the lifeless bodies of the three plant summons that accompanied it gradually turned into motes of dark green light, all of which swiftly headed in the plant commander's direction.

Not long after, these motes of dark green light combined with the mana Loreina had sent out, only for the amalgamation to take on an earthy brown color as these motes began to stick onto the plant commander, improving the might the commander exuded.

"…" Watching the transformation the plant commander was undergoing in silence, a slight frown appeared on Hal's face as he inwardly let out a sigh, deciding to send in a bit of his mana towards the wolf king as a way to counterattack against Loreina's actions.

However, rather than have all of his mana be absorbed by the wolf king, he instead used the wolf king as a conduit of sorts, allowing its body to become a hub of some sort as the mana began to extend towards the other wolves, giving all of them a substantial boost in power.

"[Lupus Unification]."

"Awoooo!!!" As if responding to the power-up the plant commander was currently going through, all of the wolves let out a loud howl in unison as the crimson in their eyes turned deeper.

Then, without even giving the other side a chance to retaliate, all of the wolves lunged forward and attacked with even greater aggression than before, hoping that their greater strength would be enough to take down their opponents.

Thud. Thud. Thud.

One by one, the plant summons fighting against the other wolves gradually began to fall to the ground, succumbing to the great amount of damage the wolves had dealt through their attacks. Because of that, the wolf king gradually gained greater confidence in facing the plant commander before it, who was still in the midst of its transformation.

"Grr…" Growling as it bent its knees, the wolf king swiftly darted forward to the limits of its strength, closing the distance between the two of them within a couple of seconds as it swiped down both of its paws in a cross pattern.

Unfortunately…

Bang!

Before the wolf king could even figure out what had hit it, the wolf king was sent flying, tumbling on the ground for a few meters as it landed.

On the other hand, it seemed that the plant commander's transformation had finally reached some sort of equilibrium, allowing its now more imposing aura to spread throughout the crater as everyone watching the fight unfold now looked at the plant commander with silence.
