The Golem Mage

Chapter 272: Martial Prowess ( Part 5).

The other wolves found themselves unexpectedly immobilized as a result of the effective collaboration between the golems and mages who were determined to eliminate the impending threats.

Meanwhile, Alec and James had managed to approach the Alpha wolf when they suddenly noticed the massive claws of the Alpha wolf heading towards them.

Alec swiftly sidestepped as James propelled himself upwards, soaring towards the head of the Alpha beast.

With his weapon raised high, he prepared to strike the wolf’s skull but caught a glimpse of a sly smirk on the edges of the wolf’s mouth while still in mid-air.

”Fucking get out of there!”

Alec shouted urgently, sensing the imminent danger, though it was aimed at James who remained airborne.

James aimed to deliver a powerful blow to the Alpha wolf’s skull with his sword,

But by relying on his newfound ability to detect things within a ten-meter radius after reaching a mental stats milestone of 12 points, Alec had notice that it was a trap that the Alpha wolf had set to draw James in.

It was this ability that allowed Alec to react to the wolf’s initial attack, yet they hadn’t realized that the wolf had already been plotting against them as they rushed to face it.

The Alpha wolf parted its jaws, revealing its formidable fangs, and began drawing in the surrounding energy, expanding it until it was sizable enough to be launched towards James.

”Fuck me!” James cursed, swiftly adjusting his grip on the sword.

He swung it downwards, creating a surge of air that propelled him skyward, successfully evading the wolf’s attack.

Although the energy ball missed its mark, James found himself in a state of free fall, struggling to regain control over his elemental abilities.

He had inadvertently been propelled into the skies, a realm typically reserved for high-ranking mages and formidable mid-tier fighters.

For someone like James, who had only recently achieved the low Tier 4 Mage rank, engaging in an aerial battle was far from his forte, leaving him feeling like a complete amateur.

As James remained airborne, the wolf attempted to leap and tear him apart, only to realize that it couldn’t reach him.

Glancing down at its foot, it came to a realization...

Unbeknownst to Alpha, a pair of hands made of earth tightly gripped his ankles.

The Alpha wolf, with its blood-red eye glowing with unusual intelligence, had disregarded Alec and solely targeted James as his primary threat.

However, now that it was restrained, it acknowledged Alec’s presence, as only Alec had been able to read his attacks twice in a role

Beads of sweat dripped down Alec’s face as he felt the strain of maintaining his spell while the wolf relentlessly attempted to break free.

Fearlessly, Alec charged forward, determined to inflict a grievous injury on the Alpha wolf.

Right as he was about to strike, he noticed a slight movement in one of the Alpha wolf hands.

Even without directly looking at it, Alec detected a faint twinge in the form of a 2D image, causing his lips to tremble as he cursed.

The wolf had been pretending, to also lure him, closer, and now it was executing its sneaky and cunning attacks, again.

Alec cursed again as he saw the claws rapidly approaching him.

He knew he wouldn’t be able to dodge them, so he swiftly shifted his body to the side and raised both of his weapons in an X formation to protect himself.

The claws crashed into him, sending him flying through the air.

Now, without the support of both his elements, Alec realized how challenging it was to land safely.

Although he could vividly see images within a range of ten meters in his mind, it didn’t mean he could keep up with the speed of the events unfolding.

He quickly inserted both his blades into the ground to cushion his descent.

His expression turned grave as a specific image flashed through his mind an imagining of a long blade striking from the left side.

his thought was filled with a profound and deadly intent that momentarily startled him.

However, he soon realized that his thinking was clear, indicating that he was fully rational in that moment, unaffected by the influence of the blood Cape, he had been really wishing he could strike the wolf from the left side as at that moment it was his blind spot.

It was at that realization that the blood killing intent cape disappeared from Alec’s back, transforming into a miniature Changdao.

In a swift motion, it recreated the exact image Alec had envisioned, striking from the left side with incredible speed.

Impaling the Alpha wolf’s hind limb deeply, the wolf let out a cry of pain.

However, his cries were abruptly interrupted when he heard chanting.

Looking up, he realized that he needed to run as fast as possible, as getting hit by the spell could mean his demise.

James, who had just regained a normal flow of mana, decided to cast his most powerful and only mid-rank wind spell that he knew.

As he was descending, James pointed his right hand towards the wolf and utilized his wind element to decrease his falling speed.

The gathering wind energy at his fingertip grew in size with each passing second.

Fuelled by the desire to control the Blood Killing intent, Alec quickly visualized another image of a sword slashing at the wolf’s neck.

The sword formed from the Blood Killing intent retracted itself from the wolf’s body, where it had been consuming blood, and moved with incredible speed towards the Alpha’s neck.

However, the Alpha wolf was prepared and raised one of its forelimbs, smashing the Blood sword aside, as it had prepared for Alec’s sneak attack this time.

This gave Alec enough time to dig his Changdao into the other ankle of the wolf.

”Awoool!”

The Alpha wolf howled in pain and attempted to jump in order to dislodge Alec from his back, but Alec quickly secured himself with his other blade, the bone katana, ensuring he wouldn’t be injured or thrown off.

”Thanks for helping me stall him,” James’s hoarse voice came from the ground as he finally landed, his fingers still pointing towards the thrashing Alpha wolf.

In excruciating pain, the Alpha Wolf howled Inn pain, the Blood Changdao drained the wolf’s blood, while the Bone Katana absorbed its Bone essence.

Such injuries could hinder the wolf’s cultivation and result in a drop in rank.

”Just shut the fuck up and kill him already,” Alec, already disoriented, shouted.

”As you wish.”
