Igonia was awakened from her sleep and looked around in surprise.
At the same time, the sounds of four other students waking up were heard.
"Teacher...Teacher Igonia!"
"I am here!"
He answered hurriedly, opened the tent and walked out. At this time in the dark night, even the brightness of the moonlight was very weak.
The five of them were in a wilderness with no one living within dozens of kilometers...
The wilderness was pitch black, with only the shrill howling of wolves in the distance.
"Have wolves discovered us?" Linda looked around with a serious face after walking out of the tent.
He was about to use the magic flare in his hand but was stopped by Igonia!
"Not for now. I've set up a barrier around here. If an ordinary wolf walks near the barrier, it will leave." Ignia said.
I have made preparations in advance, and if there are really wild beasts, they will not be able to get through.
"But this voice..."
The five people felt that the sound was getting closer and closer, and when they heard it more clearly later, it was no longer the sound of a wolf.
The frequency and strength of his breathing felt like that of some kind of wild beast!
"Come closer," said Ignia.
Over the years, he and his mentor Ash have participated in various events in the Basaran Empire. Let alone dealing with a few beasts, dealing with those zombies was a piece of cake.
"Don't get lost!" He roared and a circle of fire wall barrier began to ignite under his feet.
Fire is the defense that the beasts dare not approach the most. Igonia struck her staff and drew a flame wall more than one meter high four or five meters away around the five people.
The dark environment was instantly lit up by this flame...
However, after the flames illuminated the surrounding vision, several people realized that the creature standing in the distance was not a wolf at all, but a humanoid creature that looked like a wolf but was walking upright... a werewolf!
“How could it be!”
"What are these?"
The students had never seen a werewolf before.
Igonia had only seen some creatures similar to this in the ancient classics and books, but they were different from those in the books.
The miracle took away the evil influence of the ancient gods...but why do these things still exist!
One, two...
There are almost a dozen or so!
He is much taller than an ordinary person, probably more than two meters tall.
At this moment, the five people finally understood what those footprints they saw during the day were. They should be the footprints of the werewolves in front of them... It turned out that they had been hiding in the mountains and forests, and they must have discovered their team during the day.
"Don't go over there, they're all close." Igunya called the four students to stand with her.
Werewolf!
I don't know what kind of combat power these things have.
The staff in his hand simultaneously released stronger magic, directly raising the surrounding flames by several meters, almost blocking all vision.
The higher flames turned directly into a wall to isolate the werewolves outside.
"Jasper, grab your weapons and get ready for battle. They could come charging in at any moment."
"yes……"
"Linda, if you see a werewolf attacking you, use your ice magic. Alice, follow me and use fire to restrain the opponent."
"Understood, Master..."
"As for Robert, you are the strongest mage in the group, but you can't engage them in direct melee combat. You will observe the surrounding area. I'm afraid we don't have time to pack these bags. Take the important things and food with you and find a way out while we fight."
We don’t know the exact number of werewolves at the moment, so it’s impossible to continue fighting in this place.
Even if it is not a problem to deal with one or two, or even more than ten, it is dark now... This is the environment that the enemy is most familiar with, so we still have to find a safe place to hide temporarily!
The high wall of fire could not last long. When the wall of fire gradually receded, the enraged werewolves became even more violent.
Even the few people standing in the front were struggling to jump over, regardless of their hair being burned!
"They're coming, be careful!"
Jasper was the only warrior in the team who could use his fighting spirit, so he naturally stepped forward and took the initiative to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the werewolf that jumped over.
But the enemy was too numerous to hold back two...
His whole body felt like it was hit by a huge impact force. The werewolf's nails were almost as sharp as the sword in his hand, and he could actually use his nails to defend himself when fighting with him.
The werewolf behind him also rushed over, but was knocked back by Igonia's fire charge.
"Focus on the ones in front of you. Leave the ones behind to me and Alice. Linda, you go slow down the werewolves."
As Ignia spoke, Linda had already activated her magic...
A well-used ice magic is no less effective than a sharp sword. Every spike thrown out can pierce almost any ordinary beast. However, in front of the werewolf at the moment, it seemed very weak. The ice arrows could not penetrate the opponent's solid body at all, and he almost failed to dodge it.
If Jasper next to him hadn't counterattacked with a shield strike, the werewolf would have rushed in by now!
"Are you okay, Linda?"
"I'm fine...be careful behind you."
Another sneak attack, fortunately Jasper's shield was thick enough.
It seems that only more explosive magic can be used, but if the ice magic is stronger, it will be easy to extinguish the surrounding fire wall. For this reason, Linda can only turn to using fire magic to attack the enemy.
On the other side, Robert, who had been observing and finishing off the enemy, finally found a good spot.
"There seems to be a rocky cliff over there. Let's run over there. Maybe we can stop the werewolves!"
The team is in a field, surrounded by enemies and can only fight back to back, but any place with a little bit of blocking can be of great help.
"Are you sure it's there?" Igunya was too busy to look.
These werewolves in front of me were able to stand up after being attacked by me. Their skin is so thick!
"Yes, I'm sure."
"Let's move over there!!" he shouted.
………………
At the same time, in the Jagong Imperial City.
Sean, who had just returned from a busy business trip, was walking out of the bathtub with a towel handed to him by Illya.
"What do you think, Your Highness?"
"All my tiredness feels relieved!" He sighed. He enjoyed his life very much, but this enjoyment came at the cost of a lot of hard work.
"Where's Frelia?"
"The princess may have already fallen asleep. Your Highness, would you like to go over?"
"Um."
He nodded in response.
However, when he passed by the study, he saw several red dots on the map where the desert was originally.
"What's wrong, Your Highness?"
Illya was surprised by the sudden stop...
"Wait a mininute."
As if he had discovered something wrong, Sean moved closer to take a look.
