Chapter 170 Wreaking Havoc In Fire Leopard Region! (1)
?
Afterward, Cyrus gave Carla some more instructions and introduced her to the Hobgoblins, and they instantly treated her like they treat Cyrus. Even the ladies have to admit that Cyrus truly knows how to subdue people.
Thereupon, he and the other four left, leaving only Carla behind. She didn't delay either and got to work as Cyrus had already drawn a complete map for her, and she just needed to follow it, and everything would be fine.
The Ink Wolf Region was a few miles southwest of the Lust Sword Region, and it was filled with wolf packs that were under the control of the Alpha Ink Wolf.
"An adult ink wolf was around 2'3 meter in size, and their colors were inky black, and they can be as strong as a Tier-40 cultivator and have innate dark elements. The night is their favorite hunting time, and they hunt in packs of 20 or more.
"This region will be a perfect training ground for you to sharpen your senses against stealthy enemies," Cyrus explained while he was taking the ladies toward the Ink Wolf Region.
The ladies were listening to his every word earnestly.
"You really want us to handle those guys on our own? What if we get overwhelmed?" Leona couldn't help but ask with a hint of trepidation.
"Speak for yourself!" Rita snorted, clearly displeased by Leona speaking for everyone again, "If you encountered a powerful enemy in the future and no one will be around to save you, would you still complain like this?"
Hilda also agreed with Rita, and even Leo nodded slightly. After battling alongside each other, they were no longer shy around each other, and they all knew they had to get along since they were all Cyrus's women, whether they liked it or not.
"She's right. I can't always be around to protect you, and the entire purpose of leading you all here with me was to train your battle and survival skills. But I also know Leona is just concerned by the overwhelming numbers, and those wolves won't be like those goblins as they know how to use magic spells."
Cyrus stated before he took our four beautiful lockets with a sword shape pendant which was filled with strange symbols and handed them one each.
"I have prepared five escape charms for you five. I had already given Carla one before leaving. You just need to keep wearing it, and when you find your life in absolute danger, just touch the pendant with your Qi, and you will be instantly teleported ten miles away in a random direction." He explained.
Everyone was surprised when they heard the description of these escape charms.
"So, the legendary teleportation is really possible!" Leo couldn't help but exclaim as she admired her pendant and quickly wore it.
Cyrus chuckled, "This is just a small wonder of space runes. Wait until you break the mortal shackle, and you'll see what true teleportation looks like."
The others were quite startled by Cyrus's ambiguous words. But just as they wanted to ask more questions, Cyrus's figure started to vanish again.
"Good luck with your training. Oh, if you managed to conquer this region before the fortress was built, I'll have special rewards for you…"
Cyrus's snickering voice rang within the bewildered ladies' ears before it completely vanished like his figure.
"Ahh, he did it again!" Leona couldn't help but stomp her feet in indignation since she also wanted to ask something, but he didn't give her a chance at all.
Leo helplessly chided her little sister, "Stop being childish. Didn't you hear what he said?"
Hilda's eyes twinkled like stars as she solemnly declared before she started moving, "I'm going to conquer this place!" She was the one who liked the challenges the most, and Cyrus's last words sounded exactly like a challenge to her ears.
The others' eyes also went sharp as they quickly followed behind Hilda.
Now it was hard to tell who was in danger, those wolves or these insanity motived women!
Cyrus couldn't help but chuckle, seeing the ladies taking this entire thing so lightly. He just said the last part to motivate them, but if they really ended up doing it, then he didn't mind rewarding them.
Furthermore, with their current prowess, there was less than a fifty percent chance they could achieve it unless they could become stronger and increase others' odds.
Anyhow, Cyrus has already given them a chance to escape death, so they have to cherish it, and he heads toward the Fire Leopard Region.
The reason for him choosing the Fire Leopard Region was these guys were far superior to the Ink Wolf when it came to bloodline or magic. An adult Fire Leopard can grow up to Tier-60!
Furthermore, there was another reason why Cyrus chose them. It was their highly lustful nature which meant more LXP for Cyrus. He was planning to reach Tier-30 as fast as he could by wreaking havoc in the Fire Leopard Region!
Furthermore, he was going to practice the Hymn of Awakening until he will have achieved 100% proficiency, and those leopards were the perfect target.
The Fire Leopard Region was on the east of the Lust Sword Region, and it was a hilly area of the Moonshine Forest.
The moment Cyrus entered this place, he instantly felt a strong fire element density, and his eyes shone, 'I was just thinking how a Fire Leopard Magic Beast Race can appear in this humidity area, but it seems there is more to this region than it met the eye. This world is indeed full of surprises…'
With some anticipation, Cyrus stopped using any spells, and with only lust sword in his hand, he started to stroll the place like he was in his backyard.
After only fifteen minutes of his arrival, Cyrus's lips rose in a cold smile as he said to Eve, "Look, our hosts are here to greet their guests."
Eve couldn't help but giggle at Cyrus's manner of speech, "Heh, it seems they didn't want to greet you without a huge party!"
"Just as I like it." Cyrus chuckled as he continued to walk deeper into the region.
He knew the deeper he went, the more powerful Fire Leopard he'd encounter, and he wanted just that.
After an hour passed, Cyrus was finally stopped on a hilltop as he looked around the lush trees and smilingly said in a beast tongue, which is commonly used among magic beasts.
"My feline friends, why don't you come out and have a nice chat with me? It must be tiring to follow me around and continue to amass so many friends. How can you distribute my little meat among yourselves?"
Just as his voice trailed off, the seemingly empty hills suddenly clamored in activities as ferocious figures started to appear around Cyrus and completely surrounded him.
They all had pale red shining fur like flames and dark golden spots grouped in flame-like patterns. Their bodies were slender and muscular, reaching a length of 1'7 meters to 1'8 meters with long tails and a shoulder height of 1.4.
They were all bearing their long fangs at Cyrus, and bloodlust was emitting from their crimson eyes as they were glowing in red, while some of them were even emitting flames from their eyes as if they were on fire.
"They do not seem friendly," Eve commented.
"Why, of course, anything besides their own kind entering their territory is their prey or an invader, and both will have the same fate…" Cyrus coolly replied.
At this moment, the biggest Fire Leopard among them suddenly lunged toward Cyrus before its entire body ignited in red flames, which raised the temperature quite high.
However, Cyrus remained smiling as he saw that Fire Leopard enveloped in flames coming right toward his head to rip it off in a single bite.
Within an instant, Cyrus's hand holding the lust sword moved, performing the first hymn of awakening, and it was so fast that the Fire Leopard was still in the air when it felt a sharp sensation.
But the most horrifying thing was Cyrus's figure had already vanished from the Fire Leopard's eyes. When he reappeared, he was standing in front of another Fire Leopard and had already performed the second move in succession.
This time, Cyrus tried to keep his strength and Qi in check so he won't kill them all in a single move, and he even tried to use his intent to kill a specific target, not all of them.
The results were simply too absurd and out of Cyrus's wildest imagination. Not only he seemed to have more control over his hymns, but he could also now sense a foreign yet familiar energy starting to course through his meridians as he killed those Fire Leopards in succession while performing the hymn of awaking.
However, before he could understand and grasp that energy, he found himself slashing at empty air and instantly snapped out of his strange state.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw he ran out of targets, and all those Fire Leopards were just being separated into two halves when he looked at them!
