Chapter 72: Battle of Werewolves

"RETREAT!! Go Back to the camp!!", the commander shouted loudly, the situation they are in is devastatingly bad.

They got flanked from their sides where they're the weakest, the Earth Elementalist specialized in defense are in the front so getting attacked by the side destroys their formation completely.

The commander started to dash away trying to flee, it is not worth it to die this early.

If they force to fight then there will be none that can come back, the Supernatural will massacre them in their broken formation.

Hearing the commander's order, the battalion started to run back towards the camp.

They are running in all directions, the battalion will not do an orderly retreat because their number is less than a fourth of their previous number. They can't maintain formation with this much.

AOOUUU!!

Howls of Werewolves were heard from their back, it sent chills into each of the human's spine. It's like a death sentence to each of them, it makes their heart clenched as they ran away desperately.

The howl is like a signal,

Upon hearing these howls, the Supernatural roared in a union before chasing down the remaining human.

The Werewolf is like a death demon in the night, they are fast and ferocious. In a blink of an eye, tens of almost a hundred humans succumb under their claws.

The guilds take a massive casualty from this fight, the other side of Zrolis City is also in the same state. The humans got ambushed but luckily there are only three Werewolves there, so their casualties are not that much compared to the battle in front of Rex.

Rex watch all of this with a pained heart, 'If I were stronger, I can save these people'

He turns his head with a heavy heart before he sneaks into the city, the Supernatural are busy killing the running humans which makes it easy for Rex to sneak inside.

Zrolis City is empty, there is close to no Supernatural inside.

'It should be that way', Rex thought before he dashes towards the direction he remembers where Dave went previously.

As he was looking left and right while jumping through roofs, he suddenly felt a powerful aura.

There are two powerful auras exploding in front of him, from afar he can already feel the power of a rank six Supernatural facing against another rank six Supernatural.

Rex stopped abruptly, 'I can clearly feel Brutal Grey's aura but who is the other one?'

He then gets closer to the fight, the pressure can be felt more clearly as closer he got to the fight.

It is like a towering mountain that can crush him in a blink of an eye, these auras are way above Rex's league by a huge mile.

Arriving at the scene, Rex saw Jarvald and another Werewolf facing against each other.

Jarvald is emitting a dark red aura while the other Werewolf is emitting a blue aura, their aura is so thick that it looks like a flowing red and blue waterfall around their body. Instead of mana, their body is covered by moonlight energy that feels familiar to Rex.

"BERTOLF!! You cheap thief!! You will not be benefitted from this, why do you continuously get into my way!", Jarvald roar in anger, his eyes show signs of desperation as he clenched his fists.

Bertolf smirked, "I can't absorb the Silver Mooncress but I sure in hell will not let you absorb it either, this little guy beside me will be the one absorbing that"

Jarvald glances at the meek Werewolf beside Bertolf, he widened his eyes in shock, "Zegrath!!"

"I welcome you to the pack!! This is what you repay me with?!", he shouted with clear anger on his tone, his face scrunched in disbelief.

Jarvald gritted his teeth with bubbling up anger inside of him that will erupt like a volcano, "TRAITOR!! I WILL DEFINITELY SKIN YOU ALIVE!", he dashes madly towards Zegrath.

Zegrath smiles faintly,

Bertolf arrives in front of Zegrath and defends him from Jarvald, "You're opponent is me!"

Both of them have remarkable speed, they clash with each other like a shadow in the night and each of their collision is devastatingly powerful!

They appear on the right before colliding on the left, their speed is simply astonishing.

BAM!

BOOM!

They jumped around the places and collided with each other, each of the shockwaves their collision makes destroyed the place around them leaving nothing but debris.

It is simply astonishing, they're in the realm way above Rex's.

In Rex's eyes, there's only two red and blue shadow flashing around the place faster than what his eyes can see.

Rex felt dizzy just by looking at their shadow, he then focuses on the shining flower in the middle of the place.

Silver Mooncress has six petals, the outer layer of the petals is black in color while the inner layer is white.

From just a glance, Rex knows that the flower is enhanced by the Dark Moon from before.

The flower emits a fragrant smell that enters his nose, it is attracting Rex as if it's telling him to eat it right now. He's in a daze before realizing the flower's position.

The flower is located in the middle of the fight between two powerful Werewolves, even Zegrath doesn't dare to approach and neither do Rex.

He will instantly die if he recklessly approaches them, then suddenly,

<sudden quest!!=""></sudden>

<dark mooncress=""></dark>

The Silver Mooncress has evolved into a higher rank Dark Mooncress, it is a rank 7 mutated plant imbued with Dark Moonlight Energy that will be very beneficial for a Werewolf. Get the Silver Mooncress and use it for your own, quest reward will be calculated based on the user's performance

After getting the sudden quest, Rex becomes even determined to get the Dark Mooncress.

He's in need of power so he needed to get gold, as of now he only knows to get gold from the sudden quest so getting the sudden quest reward is very appealing for him.

'It has evolved into Dark Mooncress, I have to get it no matter the cost', Rex thought.

The battle continues, the aura emitted by Jarvald and Bertolf is so intense that attracted the guilds outside of Zrolis City's attention.

In the human guilds camp,

"Sir Marcus, the two battalions that are sent to intercept their cargo on the back entrance got ambushed. It seems they are baiting us with their movement", a soldier in red uniform said.

The man standing in front of him called Marcus has darkened expression, "How many casualties?", he said with a cold tone.

The soldier paused before replying, "Based on the commanders, each battalion that previously consists of three hundred peoples left with only seventy or even less"

BAM!!

"How could this happen!!", Marcus slammed his hand on the wooden table in front of him.

The soldier jolted in surprise, he's hanging his head low but suddenly,

"Hmm?", Marcus suddenly felt two auras battling each other inside Zrolis City.

He then smiles faintly, "Prepare all of the soldiers, we will attack them again tonight!!", Marcus said decisively.

"But sire, the Supernatural is stronger in the night. shouldn't it be best to attack tomorrow morning?", the soldier asked.

Hearing this, Marcus glance coldly, "Just do as I say"

Feeling the murderous intent from Marcus' glance, the soldier nodded his head before leaving Marcus alone.

'The Supernatural should be outside or on the back of Zrolis City, the city is defenseless. We can use it to our advantage, and that two auras, It's good to weaken each other before letting me get the final blow', Marcus thought evilly before he puts on his armor.

Meanwhile,

Jarvald and Bertolf are still fighting, their history of rivalry is forcing them to fight each other because of pride.

Their fight is brutal, they didn't even grunt after getting a huge chunk of flesh bitten off or even slashed.

The adrenaline makes them fight like a bloodthirsty maniac,

ROAR!!

Jarvald roared, his body is bloody all over but his eyes are unyielding, "Cursed Body Art, Berserkers Curse!"

Swooshh!!

Jarvald's body becomes bulkier, his eyes become all red as he engulfed by his animalistic instinct.

Looking at this, Bertolf dashes forward and slashed Jarvald.

"Claw of the Tormentor!!", Bertolf roared.

The slash is different from the other ones before, Bertolf's claw on his oversize right hand suddenly glows dark blue.

The blue energy turns into a huge dark blue claw that shadows Jarvald's body, the blue energy is blazing as it descended towards Jarvald.

ROAR!!

Jarvald roared, his body is in pain but the skill he uses before shut down all of his pain receivers throughout his body. He tanks through Bertolf's attack and bites Bertolf's neck.

ROAR!!

Bertolf roared in pain, he didn't expect Jarvald to tank the attack!

Rex who is on the side watching the fight got notifications from the system, he's quite happy by witnessing this fight.

<the enemy="" is="" using="" a="" skill,="" analyzing...=""></the>

<analyzing complete,="" berserker="" curse="" skill="" is="" pending=""></analyzing>

<the enemy="" is="" using="" a="" skill,="" analyzing...=""></the>

<analyzing complete,="" claw="" of="" tormentor="" skill="" is="" pending=""></analyzing>

'Who would've thought, these two gave me quite a powerful skills to my arsenal', Rex thought delightfully, he didn't expect that he got free skills from this fight.

Rex noticed that Jarvald and Bertolf's aura is different, 'How come they have different auras? Do Werewolves also have different elements?', he mutters to himself but suddenly the system answers,

< werewolf's="" source="" of="" power="" came="" from="" the="" moon,="" their="" body="" is="" enhanced="" depending="" on="" which="" full="" moon="" blessed="" them="" during="" birth="">

Reading this, Rex then glance at the two fightings madly, 'So Brutal Grey is probably blood moon, I have no clue about the other one though'

After thinking this, suddenly Jarvald was flung away smashing into the city wall.

Bertolf smiles brutally before dashing towards Jarvald who is clearly hurt, the fight suddenly becomes far away from Rex.

'This is my chance!', Rex thought as he looks at the Silver Mooncress.

Zegrath is also looking at the fight on the sides just like Rex, he then suddenly saw Rex on top of the roof looking at the Silver Mooncress.

Rex also turns his head and meets Zegrath's eyes, he doesn't know why but looking at Zegrath awakens something inside of him.

"HUMANS!", Zegrath shouted before he dashed towards the Silver Mooncress.

Seeing this, Rex's eyes bulge, 'System, use the Lunar Blessing Storage!'

Immediately after Rex's command, his body suddenly filled with full moon energy. His Creature of the Night passive skills suddenly gives him a 100% stats increase rather than a 50% increase, he got the full moon buff even though today is not the full moon.

His body becomes lighter as he dashes towards the Silver Mooncress,

Zegrath and Rex both become a streak of shadow, they reach out their hands intending to grab the Silver Mooncress.

SWOOSH!!

They ran past each other creating a collision of wind, they both have a darkened expression etched on their face.

They stand up slowly before turning to their backs, their murderous intent becomes visible after they lock gazes.

On their hands, they each hold three petals.

Although they got it evenly, both of them are unwilling to give up the petals.

They stare at each other with murderous intent, their eyes bulge in anger, "Give me that petals", Zegrath demands aggressively.

Rex on the other hand laughs, "Not if you give me yours first"

The atmosphere becomes heavy, they both gaze into each other probing each of them like a hungry predator.

Their body is on full alert, the moment any one of them move is the moment the fight will breakout.

Unknown to the Supernatural outside, Human Guilds, or even Dave and Liliya that a battle between two junior Werewolves is about to begin and will birth a rivalry that will shake the entire world.
