Chapter 356 Escape From The Mages (1)

'Sigh...'

'A dangerous rain indeed…'

"…"

'What a disastrous situation!?'

*Ding*

[You have used the skill Flame Wall.]

*Ding*

[You have used the skill Flame Wave.]

Shin knew that his skills would not leave the barrier and only external skills could enter the barrier. But even so, he used his skills.

He didn't really intend to attack Melos or block his skills. Instead, he just wanted to block their vision, and prevent them from seeing what was happening within the barrier.

The inside of the barrier was completely filled with flames. Apart from the bright redness, there was nothing else to see.

But what exactly was Shin planning?

What would he accomplish by obstructing their vision?

Well, Melos had been toying with Shin all this time just because he could see what he was doing.

The best way to stop him from doing anything else is to block his vision!

The attacks rained down and were soon about to enter the barrier.

Shin, who was in the air now, flying with the help of his Flame Wings, decided to use the Transformation skill to transform into the new evolutionary form he had acquired.

Even though he had tested it only once, he realized that now was the best time to transform into an evolved form.

*Ding*

[You have used the skill Transformation:]

[ Select one of the following options to evolve:]

1] Revert

2] Evolutionary Options [new]

3] Saved Evolutionary Links.

Shin immediately clicked on Evolutionary Options, opening a new list of available ones.

[Evolutionary Options:]

1] Dragon Wolf

2] Death Wolf

3] Arachno Wolf

4] Calamity Wolf

'Death wolf…'

*Ding*

[You have chosen the Death Wolf option.]

[Evolving into a Death Wolf.]

The flames that enveloped him suddenly changed colour.

The bright reddish flames turned black as if they had completely turned from Flames into Black smoke. It wouldn't be wrong to say the colour of his aura was black!

Following the flames, the colour of his fur also turned black.

As previously mentioned, due to getting all the evolution options, Shin lost the advantage of getting a permanent increase in stats from evolution. However, he still had the temporary upgrades on evolving or transforming!

As his body changed from Flame Wolf to a Death Wolf, his stats increased by 10! It was temporary of course, only until the form lasted.

Shin could have chosen any other form to evolve into, but he chose Death wolf over others. Why?

The Dragon Wolf form is a powerful form that provides almost unlimited defence! He could only suffer a small amount of damage if he transformed into that form so it had the highest chance of getting chosen, yet it wasn't.

Furthermore, if he chose the Calamity Wolf form, he could easily destroy everything around him, including attacks and magicians. As for the Arachno Wolf, his speed would increase greatly, giving him the ability to dodge attacks more precisely.

So why?

Why the Death Wolf?

The answer is pretty obvious.

It's because Shin was angry.

As mentioned, he was being toyed in the hands of Melos and because of that, he was furious.

Instead of suffering under the attacks and rather than destroying everything around him, he wanted to let them live and describe the feeling that they felt while facing him – FEAR!

The Death Wolf form provided an additional effect of inducing fear in the opponents.

The black fur with red eyes would naturally frighten anyone. But along with that, the black aura which spread from his body caused a suspending chill even in the air.

The Flame Wall that he had erected soon vanished because of the extreme cold.

All the attacks that were launched at him, failed to hit him. They ended up striking the ground and caused a lot of damage to the ground, but he was unscathed.

The Dark wolf had the ability to turn into darkness and avoid any attacks.

Death Wolf was the evolved form of Dark Wolf and hence it inherited the ability.

As a lot of explosions occurred, the mages thought that they had defeated Shin.

When they launched the attack, they could only see their thousands of attacks. They missed Shin transforming into Death Wolf.

The attacks ended and the clouds of dust filled the barrier, failing to exit.

The mages started to celebrate.

"Yayy!", cheers and celebrations echoed throughout the place.

Everyone other than Melos celebrated.

Melos, who was sceptical of the situation, lifted the barrier.

'How can it be so easy?', he wondered.

Balton, who watched via the magic orb also had similar thoughts.

'There is no way that he was killed so easily!', both of them thought this simultaneously.

As the barrier was lifted, the cloud of dust along with hot air sudden gushed out, forming hot steam that could instantly burn anyone.

As the scene became clearer, everyone's cheers vanished.

It didn't happen suddenly but happened one by one.

When one of the mages, who was celebrating, looked towards the steam that was gushing out, he noticed a pair of red eyes.

Instantly, his throat dried.

He stopped cheering and seeing him, others started to glance at the steam and stopped cheering.

One by one, everyone stopped as the pair of gigantic eyes made them uncomfortable.

Soon enough, when the scene was clearer, Shin's entire body was visible.

He was twice his normal size. His black fur with red eyes sent chills down their spine. The air became cooler which made everyone anxious.

"How...?", there was another and a much bigger reason that shocked everyone.

"How was he able to survive that!?", a mage asked, confused.

A barrage of thousands, if not, at least hundreds of attacks were launched at him yet he was still able to dodge them.

"No, did he eat them?", one of them asked.

The person believed that instead of dodging, he stood still and took the attacks head-on!

*gulp*

They swallowed a large amount of dry saliva which only made their throat even drier.

Their fear didn't cease and continued to increase.

Melos, who was known to control the battlefield efficiently, found his men losing morale. Despite that, he couldn't do anything.

He couldn't pull himself to give some encouraging words because he too was in fear.

His legs trembled a bit at the sight of Shin.

'What's wrong with my body...?', Melos was confused.

Even in the face of a Wyvern, he didn't feel the slightest fear, but now, he couldn't feel even the slightest amount of courage in front of Shin.
