"Just a question, if I kill all these wolves, will it affect the ecosystem?" Just as Yuki and the other two were celebrating their successful return to the convoy, Kanna's voice came from outside.
Upon hearing Kanna's voice, the team, which had been very nervous seeing the dense crowd of wild wolves emerging outside, suddenly lost all morale.
"Just fight. Such a large pack of wolves gathering is a huge hidden danger to the surrounding areas. If we can take them down, we might even get commendations."
Even Anto, who usually appeared the most composed, couldn't help but be a little flustered by Kanna's words. Outside, there was such a huge pack of wolves; even if their entire team went out, they wouldn't satisfy a tenth of their appetite. One could say that their crisis was almost at their doorstep, yet Kanna's little head was still worrying about whether killing wolves would affect the ecosystem.
"Then I can fight with confidence." After receiving the confirmation that she could fight without reservation, Kanna's greatsword retracted into her body, like a pair of gauntlets covering her hands, and at the front of each gauntlet's fist, three sharp claws extended.
"Awooo! Kanna-chan super evolution, Wolverine Kanna! I am the chosen one, and the only one! Aiolia, unyielding and immortal…" After transforming her weapons into dual claws, Kanna, in "Wolverine" mode, swung her dual "claws," tearing a huge gap through the middle of the charging wolf pack amidst the thunder.
Discovering that Kanna was too powerful to contend with, accompanied by a wolf howl from the forest, the wolf pack split into several groups and attacked the convoy behind Kanna.
"That howl just now must have been the Wolf King. I can defend the convoy here, but you need to take down the Wolf King, otherwise, it will be too troublesome." The wolf pack crashed into the protective shield Nian had erected and couldn't advance further; countless claws raked against the shield but failed to cause even a ripple.
Nian, from inside, pointed in the direction from which the wolf howl had come and shouted to Kanna, who was "hunting" outside.
Kanna glanced at Nian's shield and found it particularly interesting. Although it looked like a thin layer, it showed no ripples despite being surrounded by the wolf pack and attacked by so many sharp fangs and claws. Judging by Nian's dismissive expression, this shield could last for a very long time.
Most importantly, this shield was a one-way street.
Although the wolves outside couldn't get in, anything from inside, whether spells or arrows, could easily pass through the shield and fly out to damage the wolf pack.
It perfectly embodied the rogue spirit of "I can hit you, but you can't hit me."
After giving Nian an OK sign, Kanna crossed her claws and charged into the forest with a "Whirlwind Charge, Tornado Fang, Piercing Fang" move.
Once inside, Kanna realized that, compared to outside, there were still many wolves in the forest. Due to the obstruction of trees, Kanna's direct line of sight was severely limited, and she truly couldn't find any trace of the opposing Wolf King at first glance.
However, such a thing didn't bother Kanna at all. In just a blink of an eye, Kanna spread her aura (Dragon's Might?) outwards, covering more than half of the forest within two breaths.
The next second, immense pressure descended from the sky. All creatures in the forest, whether jackals, wolves, tigers, leopards, birds, beasts, fish, or insects, felt this natural suppression from a superior predator and prostrated themselves on the ground, trembling.
The Wolf King is usually the strongest and most powerful wolf in the pack, so after a mental scan, Kanna found the alpha wolf, which was hiding among the pack and had the strongest life force.
Jumping down, Kanna's eyes lit up as she looked at the alpha wolf kneeling on the ground.
This alpha wolf was indeed worthy of leading such a large wolf pack. While other wolves were only one or two meters tall, Kanna estimated this alpha wolf to be nearly two meters tall and about four meters long, like a giant beast among the wolf pack.
And most importantly, this wolf appeared entirely silvery-white. Even with so much dirt and dust in the forest, not a single trace was left on its white fur.
Coupled with its red eyes, good heavens, silver hair and red eyes, a special attack for Yan!
With just one glance, Kanna felt she had fallen in love with this giant wolf. Such a beautiful big fellow must be her beloved mount.
At this moment, the giant wolf's entire body was prostrate on the ground. Upon closer inspection, one could clearly see its whole body trembling uncontrollably, clearly still desperately resisting Kanna's aura suppression.
"Little fellow, I see you have a connection with me. Why not abandon the darkness and embrace the light, convert to this Dragon, and become my mount!" With her hands behind her back, she swaggered to the front of the giant wolf, looked at the increasingly trembling giant wolf, and extended her hand to touch its forehead.
At the same time, she sent a thought: "Either follow me and live a life of luxury, or die!"
Upon receiving Kanna's ultimatum, the giant wolf quickly ceased its resistance.
In front of Kanna, the giant wolf rolled onto its back, all four limbs upwards, exposing its belly, lying on the ground with a whimpering expression as it looked at Kanna.
Kanna knew this was a gesture of submission from a beast, exposing its defenceless belly to show weakness to a stronger being. This also proved that, at least for now, this giant wolf had agreed to be her subordinate.
Seeing that the other party was no longer resisting, Kanna walked to its side with a satisfied expression.
"Hmm! Goodness, it's a female wolf? Then you'll have a hard time finding a male wolf, these little guys are probably like toothpicks stirring a big jar."
Kanna hadn't expected the alpha of such a large wolf pack to be a female. No wonder she was stationed in the rear, not charging at the forefront.
"A female wolf, let me think... Oh, right! From today on, you'll be called Mona, White Wolf Mona!"
Now that she had a mount, the most crucial step was naming it. After a brief thought, a very fitting name surfaced in Kanna's mind.
"Hello, hello, Kanna, can you hear me? The wolf pack outside suddenly scattered and fled. The crisis is temporarily resolved. Did you handle things inside?" Nian's voice came through Kanna's personal terminal.
Kanna thought for a moment. It must have been her oppressive aura that reached outside. With the wolf king's fate unknown and then being intimidated, fleeing was a primal instinct for the beasts.
"It's handled. I'll be right back." Kanna said, then looked at the giant wolf behind her.
"Get up!" She patted the giant wolf's face, and after it stood up again, Kanna jumped onto its neck.
Although the wolf's fur was very stiff, a normal person would find it prickly, but Kanna didn't mind at all. After all, compared to its handsome appearance and impressive presence, this minor flaw was completely tolerable.
At this time, the convoy was organizing their belongings, preparing to move a short distance to find a new place to set up camp. After all, with so many wild wolves dead here, the strong smell of blood would inevitably attract predators from the surroundings. Resting here would not only mean enduring the unpleasant smell but also staying vigilant against another attack.
