Chapter 19 - Wiping Out The Outer Territory
Chapter 19 - Wiping Out The Outer Territory
"Phew...That was scary" Emily sighed as she calmed her breathing.
Mermaids usually reside underwater, and some of them are unable to walk on land.
As a result, it's clear that she's afraid of heights.
Adam stared at the eight golems that stood like a mountain in front of him.
'Sigh... If only I'd had ice golems, they could have crept up on the wolves and killed them.'
It was the first time, since rebirth that he felt a little spark of tension within him.
They could see the large cave from afar, but silverwolf was nowhere to be found; it appeared to be resting deep within the cave.
Hundreds of wolves may also be seen roaming in packs and patrolling their area. The outside circle was sparsely populated, whereas the inner circle was heavily populated.
"Awoo...Awoo," a pack of wolves came from behind them, ready to strike.
"Aw..." but Adam's golems wrenched the necks of the 5 wolves before they could complete their howl.

They had no emotion on their faces, but Adam got the impression that they were giving him thumbs up.
"Damn...It's too late; we need to flee before the neighboring wolves attack "Emily stated this as she dragged Adam behind her.
"Who do you know?"
"I can't reveal that, but what I am saying is true, you have to believe me"
"I believe you though.."
"It will be more difficult to kill the silver lord wolf at this time"
"Why? I also noticed that all the wolves seeming to be more alert and cautious than mentioned,"
"because...there is a young alpha inside the cave. Its presence is similar to a silver wolf, I guess it could be the pup of him"
"What!?"
'Curse my luck.'
After hearing Emily's explanation, it was the first thought that came to Adam's mind.
'I'm already short on time, and this variable is adding to my troubles.' 'Am I the unluckiest person on the face of the planet?'
They eventually evaded the group of wolves after fleeing for a long distance. "Awooo...Awooo..." he can still hear wolves' screams from several areas where they appeared to be communicating.
'Though, absurdly, I believe there is a strong probability they will communicate amongst themselves.'
'I'll be murdered if I don't make a move sooner or later.'
A good thing happened, while he was pondering a strategy to kill them. The cooldown for earth summons has fully finished, now he can summon more golems.
'Earth summon' as usual two golems made of earthly materials formed before him.
[Golems:10]
With 10 golems, he can probably easily kill the wolves.
As he was trying to make a move a group of wolves offered themselves in front of him.
"Dark pierce"
[-25]
A beam of Dark light formed in his hand and killed all 7 wolves instantly.

"Aa.." this time he was more cautious and killed all the 7 wolves instantly before they warned or informed other wolves.
It will be no good for him, he can't possibly face 40 or 50 wolves altogether even with his golems.
Behind him Emily was slightly surprised, she didn't expect that Adam can easily kill the pack with a single spell.
As great as the spell was its mana consumption was also large and cool downtime was also longer.
Adam and Emily clearly moved and reached before another pack of wolves.
It was considered a large one, it had 11 wolves, 'Though they are large I can easily kill them if I took them out of surprise'
After reaching really close to them Adam ordered his golems to kill the pack.
The ground slightly rumbled and blood spilled all over the area, Adam took care of the remaining one with his spear.

[You have reached LvL:15 you can learn one additional spell other than the basic spell of 7 affinities]
"Can you heal the golems?" Adam asked Emily.
"Yes, It is possible"
"Greater Heal" a green magic circle formed under the feet of the golems and their body glowed in bright green mixed golden color.
The few hundred HP they lost from the previous brawl were instantly restored.
"Okay, I will give you, buff as well," as she said a blue magic circle formed under the feet and Adam.
[Your Mana recovery has been temporarily enhanced by 40%]
[Your HP has been temporarily increased by 20%]
Though it will not seem much of the typical buff like str+20% or defense+60%.
It is really hard to buff one's mana recovery rate or one's vitality.
Even for shaman's those who are in higher levels can only cast this type of spell.
'I think, she is truly a blessing in disguise'
As they moved forward Adam encountered more and more groups of wolves.
[Ice spears]
The wolves didn't stand chance, also by the time went by Adam also discovered Emily was at a higher level.
The buffs and heals she cast were all large mana-consuming spells, but she didn't seem tired at all.
[Dark piece]
[-25]
[Harpen Dier was satisfied with your performance,he had granted you the Class: Mage]
He also completed the quest, Adam experienced a sudden surge of energy, and a small circle formed on his heart.
His mana pool also increased by several folds.
But the wolves kept coming, though in smaller numbers, and it appeared that he had virtually wiped out the wolves in the outer circle.
It was exhausting for him to slaughter them one by one, but he didn't have an alternative.
Despite the fact that his level rose at an amazing rate, he also summoned two additional golems, making their journey to the inner circle considerably easier.
They arrived at the inner circle encircling the cave after battling with dozens of packs.
