"Enemy attack! Everyone form up!"
Leila shouted the command to gather at the first moment.
The five people quickly gathered together and took their positions. Only Oak, who was still digging moonlight fennel, did not have time to pull his sword out of the mud under the rock.
But even this short delay of a few seconds was a fatal mistake for the six people!
While the tip of Ork's sword was still stuck deep in the crevice, the treetops above the six people's heads suddenly exploded into a rain of fallen leaves.
"Be careful up there!"
Three phantom wolves fell vertically in a bloody wind, and with the sound of sharp claws tearing the air, they went straight for the back of Ork's neck.
“Drink!”
With a loud shout, Leila grabbed the edge of the shield with both hands and swung it across the back of Oak's neck like a big knife, causing dazzling sparks to collide with the wolf claws that were grabbing Oak.
No matter how careful they were, how could they have imagined that this group of ghost wolves had the ability to climb trees?
This sudden attack from overhead caught the six people off guard.
Although Leila's shield blocked a fatal blow for Ork, it also caused a loophole in the defense of the six-member adventure group.
Before Leila retracted her shield, two ghost wolves rushed out from the nearby forest from two directions and pounced on Eden and Yak at the same time.
At this time, Cole was the only melee fighter in the team who could react.
Cole activated his frenzy skill, and the veins on his arms bulged. He swung a short axe with a strong wind and chopped off the ghost wolf that was rushing towards Yak.
The other short axe could only disruptively hit the side of the other ghost wolf.
"Sean, help me clear out the nearby ghost wolves first!"
Fortunately, Eden reacted quickly. The ice crystals on the top of the staff condensed into an arc-shaped barrier, narrowly blocking the sharp claws attacking from the flank.
The slowed-down ghost wolf was immediately pierced through the throat by three consecutive arrows, and the white feathers at the arrow tails vibrated violently in the moonlight.
In one round of output, Eden and Sean cooperated to kill a first-level ghost wolf in seconds.
"Hmph, be careful, there's a Level 2 Phantom Wolf!"
Jack, whose attack should have been blocked by Cole, suddenly groaned and knelt down. Everyone then discovered that the hem of his robe had been torn into a hideous tear by the shadow.
The ghost wolf that attacked Yak was not a first-level ghost wolf that could only attach magic to its claws, but a second-level ghost wolf that could shoot shadow claw blades!
"Yake, are you okay?" Oak, who finally returned to his position, asked with concern.
"It's okay, it won't have much impact!"
Fire Mage Yak gritted his teeth and pressed his palm against the wound. The smell of burning and stopping bleeding rose from between the six people, stinging their noses and causing pain.
There were two clear claw marks on Leila's shield, and his left shoulder was already a bloody mess.
Just now, when he blocked the attack of three ghost wolves for Oak, he was still scratched by one of them. With his physique, he should have been able to withstand the attack of a first-level monster, but this time, the claw on his shoulder was so deep that the bone was visible.
The ordinary protective equipment in his hand can fight against first-level monsters, but it is not enough to fight against higher-level monsters.
Looking up and looking around at this moment, Leila couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
The ghost wolves surrounding them had already revealed themselves under the light of the defensive fire circle that Yak had just set up.
The first- and second-level panels hanging above her head made it impossible for Leila to even think of resisting!
None of the ghost wolves that surrounded us this time were ordinary wild wolves, they were all magical beasts!
Their number is no less than the group of wild wolves that surrounded them before!
And as expected, the six people saw the one-eyed, broken-legged old wolf behind the group of ghost wolves!
While they were chasing the old wolf, the old wolf was also setting an ambush for them!
"Retreat! Retreat to the outskirts of the mountain range!"
As the one with the strongest defense among the six, Leila knew that even he could not withstand the attack of these ghost wolves, let alone the others.
Sean and his men can kill a first-level ghost wolf in seconds, but they have no chance of winning against a second-level ghost wolf.
At this time, the six of them could only flee from this place as quickly as possible, at least a few of them had to escape farther away from the Phantom Wolf Valley first!
They no longer cared about the few remaining third-level moonlight fennels that had not been collected in Yanfengli. This time, Oak led the way, and Leila followed behind, and the group charged out along the way they came.
At this moment, Jack no longer cared about the burning pain from the wound near his lower abdomen and the consumption of his magic power.
With a wave of his hand, two walls of fire rushed along the adventure group's escape path.
Even though these ghost wolves are already magical beasts, the animals' natural fear of fire still makes them hesitant when facing a blazing wall of fire.
When the wall of fire blocks the wolves' sight and sense of smell, Oak only needs to rush to the front and kill the ghost wolf that dares to block the fire path.
As the strongest ordinary melee output professional swordsman, although Oak's offensive is different from Cole's, which is wide and powerful, as long as he faces the enemy directly, he can find the enemy's weakness the fastest. Under the same level, as long as he practices diligently on weekdays, he can almost kill the enemy with one blow!
Eden and Sean could then shoot down the wolves outside that were running after them from within the wall of fire.
Several people wanted to take this opportunity to kill the two second-level ghost wolves in the wolf pack.
However, the second-level ghost wolf is fast and can also condense a shield of dark power.
After two consecutive unsuccessful attacks, Eden and Sean turned their targets to other first-level ghost wolves.
After the adventure group escaped more than a mile away, the six-man team also killed five first-level ghost wolves intermittently.
Sean, the highest level among the six, has even reached level 10.
However, the upgrade at this time cannot bring any psychological advantage to them.
Because the ghost wolves that had been hunting them no longer tried to rush directly into the fire wall to stop them after losing several of them in a row.
They kept hanging around the few people, using the big trees in the forest as cover, and occasionally passing through the treetops above their heads.
This made Jack dare not easily remove the firewall defense.
These ghost wolves will wait until Yak's magic power is exhausted before rushing forward and tearing the six-member adventure team to pieces.
But no matter what, the money that the six adventurers including Yak brought from home could not afford to buy any high-end armor or weapons.
But I really bought a lot of recovery potions.
Life recovery potions and mana recovery potions accounted for almost half of the weight in their pockets.
After running more than a mile, Leila and Jack's injuries had completely recovered.
However, no matter how many potions a few people carry with them, they will eventually run out.
When the treetops above their heads became sparser and they could already see the cold moon hanging in the sky, there were only two bottles of magic recovery potions left on their waists.
"We have already left the range of the Warcraft Mountains!"
Jack, who was trying hard to maintain the wall of fire, sighed weakly. He already felt that his eyes were getting darker.
I'm afraid that when his magic power is exhausted, he will fall to the ground.
"Hold on a little longer. There's an adventurer's temporary camp ten miles outside the Monster Mountain Range. Maybe there are other adventurers there!"
Oak encouraged from the front of the team.
