Versatile Mage

Certain species of demon creatures were able to speak the human tongue, but most of them were mutant species who already had a human lineage.

Did the mother wolf have a human lineage? That was impossible!

Did the mother wolf evolve into something special?

A hunchbacked man holding a long bone as his walking stick came forward while the people on the fortress were still in shock.

The man was dressed primitively, like he had lived in the mountains for years. Even his voice sounded like the growls of wolves.

“The Wolf Queen wants me to tell you that the Nanling Mountains have always been her territory. Even the city here once belonged to her territory. She kindly gave it up for you, but not only were you not grateful, you are not obeying the rules, either!” the man yelled at them.

The people on the fortress could roughly understand him despite his strange tones. He was obviously a human. He must have lost his way in the Nanling Mountains many years ago and ended up being enslaved by the Ruler Wolf.

He stood beside the mother wolf. His humble attitude toward the female wolf was a huge contrast to the arrogance he had when he was facing the humans.

“The culprit has been eaten alive. Please plead for us and pacify the Wolf Queen,” Zhou Yuan requested of him.

“You think that was enough to pacify the Wolf Queen?” The man burst out laughing.

“She wants all of you to remember this lesson! She’s going to make your city behind the fortress flow with blood!”

The primitive man’s shouts were almost synchronized with the Ruler Wolf’s howls. The people on the fortress might not understand her language, but they could clearly sense her anger and murderous intent!

Giving back the wolf pups was not enough. Sacrificing the life of the culprit was not enough either!

They were not allowed to profane the Wolf Queen’s authority!

Only butchering the city and letting the smell of blood spread over a dozen kilometers would make all living creatures in the Nanling Mountains remember this lesson!

The sky changed as the blood mist darkened. The plague of venomous insects swarmed out of the Ruler Wolf’s fur and instantly filled the canyon in front of the fortress.

The brilliance of the Battlemage’s magic on the fortress was overwhelmed.

The venomous insects began to feed on the humans. The Ruler Wolf’s blood mist was already unstoppable, even after she had only taken a step forward.

The Wizard Bird Hunter Group was immediately on alert, as they were facing a formidable foe. The faces of all of the Battlemages paled at the same time.

This Ruler Wolf was countless times stronger than the male wolf they had killed. Her Aura surged at the fortress wildly. Certain Mages with weaker cultivations fainted instantly, let alone being able to protect themselves with magic!

“Screw it, let’s fight her with everything we have. I won’t let it reach the city even if it means dying here!” Zhou Yuan shouted.

There was no room for negotiation. The Ruler-level Wolf had promised to butcher the city!

They were long aware of the Wolf Queen’s savage nature, hence why they had gathered on the fortress in the first place.

They chose to fight, even though they did not stand a chance. They were prepared to bear the consequences of their mistake!

“The Wizard Bird Hunter Group might be annihilated today, but not a single life in Bo City will be lost!” Zhou Yuan roared defiantly.

“We may die, but we won’t let a single person of Bo City die!” General Nan finally spoke with an iron will.

If atoning for their crime was not enough, they were not afraid to take the fight! Not everyone was willing to end up as a slave to the Wolf Queen, like that primitive man!

A few dozen Advanced Mages jumped down from the fortress following the lead of Zhou Yuan and General Nan, intending to fight the Wolf Queen in the canyon.

The Wolf Queen howled. The air she was releasing gathered into a powerful blood-red tornado and knocked the Mages flying, like a wave released from a broken dam.

The gusts of wind held incredible force. They were able to penetrate the sturdy walls of the fortress like steel cables.

None of the Advanced Mages were unharmed. They were covered in blood as they slammed into the walls of the fortress. Some of them were stuck deeply into the stone.

Only General Nam and Zhou Yuan managed to stand their ground.

The Wolf Queen swiftly lunged forward and swung her front limbs. The two Super Mages were sent flying consecutively. Her claws left deep marks in the walls in the canyon.

The savage man burst out laughing. “And you think you stand a chance against the Wolf Queen? How puny!”

The Wolf Queen was unstoppable. Her claws alone had left bizarre marks on the sturdy rocks.

The Wolf Queen jumped to the top of the fortress and stood atop it aloofly. Her blood-red eyes were staring down at Bo City, which was hidden behind a few mountains in the way. She could barely see a few of its tallest buildings.

A river was flowing down to Bo City from the mountains.

Humans were no different from ants in her eyes. They were small and weak, despite their numbers!

The Wolf Queen howled. The people in Bo City immediately looked at the mountain after the howl reached them.

The Wolf Queen was clearly visible on the top of Snowy Peak Mountain despite its distance from the city. Only her upper body was visible above the mountain in front of the city. Her eyes and the eerily cold moon hung right above the mountain while her Aura was surging at the city like a storm!

The people felt their heads and their limbs going numb. It was like they could smell death, as if the creature was already within inches when it was still a mountain away.

In the past, a Commander-level Darkwing Wolf had been enough to bring a bloodbath to Bo City. Now, the ruler of all the wolves of the Nanling Mountains was coming after them!

“Listen up! Someone has provoked the Wolf Queen! As a result, all of you will atone for his crime with your lives!” the savage man shouted while standing on the Wolf Queen’s claw.

He was speaking on behalf of the Wolf Queen so the people would realize how puny they were.

“She is the Queen of the Nanling Mountains, while you all are her humble servants!” His voice echoed in the mountains and Bo City along with the Wolf Queen’s howl.

“The Wolf Queen, right?” a voice asked from the road at the Wolf Queen’s feet.

It was the highway leading to the relay station on Snowy Peak Mountain. A man stood on the road and stared up at the imperious Wolf Queen.

The Wolf Queen lowered her gaze to look down at the road.

Humans were too tiny for her. She had not even realized a human was standing there.

However, she did not think of the human as a threat, he was just like the other humans on the fortress.

“Can you ask on my behalf if the Darkwing Wolf was her lackey, if she claims herself to be the Ruler of Nanling Mountains?” Mo Fan requested.

“Of course the Darkwing Wolf was the Wolf Queen’s lackey. It was just the leader of a puny tribe!” the man answered smugly.

Mo Fan’s gaze sharpened. His temperament changed completely in an instant!

“Very well then, it’s time to settle both the old and new debts! Humph, how bold of her to threaten to butcher the city in front of me, Mo Fan!

“I shall annihilate the wolf horde of the Nanling Mountains today!”

The Wolf Queen was not the only Ruler of the Nanling Mountains. There were other rulers of different tribes and hordes there.

It was a great opportunity to teach them that they did not want to mess with Bo City!
