The Legend of the Demon Hunter

Two years later.

On the road leading to Novan City, a young woman holding a baby was running quickly. Her face was full of tears. She looked back from time to time and gasped in fear and despair. The baby in her arms seemed to be affected by her mother's emotions and also cried loudly. Hearing the baby's cry, the young woman became more nervous. She gently patted the child's back with her hand, but did not dare to stop for a moment.

On the empty road behind her, a huge black figure suddenly appeared. The figure was several times faster than the young woman and quickly approached her in a blink of an eye. It turned out to be a huge wolf.

The wolf stood as tall as a floor, and its head was bigger than the young woman's body. It opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards the young woman, as if it wanted to swallow her and the baby alive.

Faced with this situation, the young woman's fear and despair reached the extreme. Her face turned pale, her heart beat wildly, and she held the baby in her arms tighter.

Just as the young woman and the baby were about to be killed by the wolf, suddenly a flash of fire appeared and a flaming arrow flew from a distance, blocking the giant wolf's advance just in time. The giant wolf seemed to be very afraid of the arrow, and it gave up chasing the young woman, but suddenly turned its body and stood still.

The giant wolf looked at the source of the arrows. There was a young man in blue clothes holding a huge bow in his hand, and the bow was shining. The prey that was about to be caught was snatched away by someone. The giant wolf stared at the young man with its teeth bared, and let out a threatening growl.

The young man said to the young woman holding the baby, "Keep going along this road. Nowan City is less than five kilometers ahead. Leave this Swift Wolf to me."

The young woman had luckily escaped from the wolf's mouth, but she was still in shock. When she heard the young man's voice, she stood there in a daze, without any reaction.

"Hurry up, this Wind Wolf is very fast. It will be difficult for me to protect you if you stay here." The young man urged.

The young woman suddenly realized something, and she hurriedly ran forward. After running a dozen steps, the young woman seemed to remember something, turned around and asked: "Thank you for saving my life, hero. May I ask your name? When we reach Nuowan City, I will repay you."

The young man replied calmly: "I'm not a hero, my name is Xiao Zhu, and I'm a demon hunter."

The young woman thanked him again and then ran straight towards Novan City.

In the past two years, Xiao Zhu's appearance has hardly changed, except that his face has become more mature. He looked at the huge Swift Wind Wolf and said coldly: "You evil beast, you have harmed many people, today is the day you die!"

Of course, the Swift Wolf didn't understand what Xiao Zhu said, but its animal instinct made it feel the threat from Xiao Zhu. It stared at Xiao Zhu intently, roared, and then took the initiative to pounce on Xiao Zhu.

As a second-level monster that excels in speed, the Gale Wolf's instantaneous burst of speed is almost comparable to that of a third-level monster. Its moving body is completely invisible to ordinary people, and it appears in front of Xiao Zhu in just a moment.

But Xiao Zhu was no longer the ignorant boy who had just started out in the martial arts world. Facing the attack of the Gale Wolf, he remained calm, and faced the attack head-on without any avoidance. When the Gale Wolf's huge mouth was only one meter away from Xiao Zhu, a huge stone wall rose from the ground to block the Gale Wolf. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Gale Wolf immediately changed from biting to pouncing, kicked the stone wall with its two front paws, and turned around.

Xiao Zhu smiled coldly, confident in what he had planned, and said sternly, "Dungeon Technique!"

Suddenly, three stone walls rose up from the ground to the left and right of the Swift Wolf, forming a huge cage that trapped the Swift Wolf. The Swift Wolf howled and looked up at the sky. There was only one gap left for it to break through, so it jumped up without hesitation and fled upwards.

But what greeted it from above was a sharp sword falling from the sky, with flames burning on the sword. The blade was burned red, and it seemed that it was about to pierce the Wind Wolf with one sword.

Just as Xiao Zhu was about to stab the Wind Wolf's head with the sword in his hand, the Wind Wolf suddenly opened its bloody mouth and a beam of electric light as thick as a bowl spurted out of its mouth.

Xiao Zhu's face suddenly changed. He had already memorized the record of the Wind Wolf in the "Warcraft Chronicles", but it never mentioned that it could control lightning.

Strengthening oneself through natural forces such as wind, thunder, water, fire, etc. is an ability only possessed by Warcraft above level three!

In a flash, the lightning and the flaming sword collided with each other, making a huge explosion. Xiao Zhu was pushed nearly ten meters away by the shock wave. Fortunately, he used the petrification technique to protect himself in time, otherwise the power of the explosion would be enough to injure him.

At this time, Xiao Zhu looked at the Wind Wolf again and found that it had completely changed its appearance. Its hair turned silver-white, and its huge tail became almost as long as its body.

"A third-level magical beast, the Wind Demon Wolf?" Xiao Zhu frowned, looking a little panicked.

He has now completed two blood awakenings and possesses fire, water, and earth spiritual powers, so it is no problem for him to deal with most level 2 monsters. However, each level higher a monster is, the strength is more than ten times stronger. If he encounters a level 3 monster, he has no chance of winning.

"No, that's not right. This Swift Wolf doesn't seem to have evolved completely yet. Its horn hasn't grown out yet, and it doesn't have enough control over lightning. It can't reach the strength of a third-level magical beast. It should be considered the peak of a second-level magical beast." Xiao Zhu analyzed secretly in his heart. Thinking of this, his expression became solemn: "In this case, it has the strength to fight, but it has to give its all!"

The Gale Wolf rushed towards Xiao Zhu again. The moment it got close to Xiao Zhu, it twisted its body and swept its huge tail across. Lightning was lingering on the tail, making crackling sounds.

Xiao Zhu knew that if he was hit by the tail, the lightning on it would be enough to paralyze his entire body and make him lose consciousness. Facing such an attack, he did not dare to take it head-on and jumped into the air.

The Swift Wolf missed its attack and fell to the ground in the distance. When it landed, it felt the ground was cold. The next moment, four huge ice chains grew wildly from the ground like vines, tightly entangling the Swift Wolf's limbs.

The trapped Wind Wolf began to struggle violently, lightning flashing on his body. However, the ice chain had a magical restraining effect on lightning. The chain continued to grow, gradually spreading from its limbs to its body, and finally tied up its entire body. The lightning was directed to the earth along with the ice chain, and its power was completely exhausted.

After struggling for several times, the lightning of the Wind Wolf had been exhausted, and the body gradually lost strength. At this time, a huge fireball fell from the sky and hit the head of the Wind Wolf. With a loud bang, the head of the Wind Wolf was blown in half.

"The book records that the lightning of the Wind Wolf can be guided by ice. It really works when I try it. The author of "Warcraft Records" is really well-versed in ancient and modern times. I wonder what kind of person he is?" Xiao Zhu couldn't help but sigh.

Xiao Zhu cut open the head of the Swift Wolf and took out a purple fist-sized crystal core. After carefully examining it for a moment, he said, "The tenth Level 2 mission is finally completed. I can get the Silver Medal from the Demon Hunter Association when I return. Moreover, this crystal core that is about to evolve into a Level 3 monster should be worth a lot of money. I finally have a solution for next year's tuition."

After saying this, he put the crystal core into the storage bracelet and walked towards the direction of Novan City.
