Chapter 351 Spying
Chapter 351 Spying
Many humans suddenly appeared.
They had already surrounded Shin and his gang.
But that was not all, many arrows were fired in their direction.
Being agile, all were able to dodge the attacks. However, the arrows were never intended to hurt the wolves.
Rather, it was to form a wall behind them and prevent them from escaping.
Shin and Deoras were the only ones to notice that the arrows stacked on top of each other from head to tail and formed five rows of tall walls.
'The precision… ', Shin thought to himself.
'The archers that fired these are definitely some big shots...',
'Or, they have been trained really well.', he concluded.
Shin then looked at the armor that the soldiers were wearing.
'These armours...'
'They are familiar...'
"They are familiar indeed.", his mood got worse when he said the sentence to himself.
Anger was evident on his face.
It was impossible for him to forget what the soldiers of Levonia wore.
"Go! Kill them!", the general leading the first batch of soldiers shouted.
He thought that the white wolf among the black wolves was just another weak wolf.
He was the only one among all the generals of Levonia who hadn't watched the clan wars. He thought that it was just some pet fight and thus was flirting around and sleeping with various women.
Such a pity, if he had known about Shin, he would have run away right now as Shin was in no mood to kill them.
Regardless, the surprising part was that Shin failed to notice them before the ambush.
'The heck...'
'What happened?'
'Why did my senses...'
Before he could think anything else, all the soldiers rushed forward with their spears, trying to impale the wolves.
Shin had nothing but a single command, "Spare no one."
And the moment he let out the command, Deoras and the remaining shadow wolves dashed forward.
They slipped into the ground by turning themselves into shadows which was an effective measure to dodge the spears.
After that, they appeared right behind the soldiers and bit off their necks, creating several blood fountains in a single go.
"Arghh!", the soldiers that were standing right behind the beheaded ones, screamed at the top of their voices.
Fear spread throughout the small group of soldiers ultimately reaching the general.
"What the-"
He was sitting on a horse and was looking at the scene in fear.
One by one, all his soldiers were getting killed. It was happening unbelievably fast.
A single blink and 10 soldiers would have vanished!
A lot more soldiers were standing behind the general. They belonged to a different group that was led by a different general.
"Sir, we-"
The soldiers didn't even get to say anything properly as their voices were snatched away due to fear of beheaded bodies flying everywhere.
Especially, the archers that had initially shot the arrows, didn't have the nerve to draw another one to the string. It was because fear had engulfed them.
Also, Shin's skill Aero slash had already destroyed most of the bows that they had, snatching away at least one type of weapon from the soldiers.
The skill Hurricane sent many bodies flying.
"Retreat!", the first general shouted.
"..."
25 minutes later...
Hundreds of dead bodies remained on the ground awaiting vultures and other creatures to come and feast on them.
Shin and the gang didn't let anyone live. The two generals along with their groups were ruthlessly killed.
Their mistake was only one: ambushing Shin.
Shin and the gang had already walked past the pile of dead bodies after discovering the reason for their dulling of senses.
Yes, no shadow wolves nor Shin could detect the ambush and this was all because of an Artifact that the general had with him - Stealth Scarf.
[ Stealth Scarf: Grade B
-> Capable of hiding the presence of any object (living/dead) within a range of 200 meters.]
This artifact hid their presence. Since Shin and the rest were nearby the Land Of Lost Ones, their senses had naturally dulled out and this resulted in their failure of noticing the people that were ready for an ambush.
Shin stored the artifact in his inventory so it could come in handy in the future.
After that, he took away the armors of the soldiers as well, thinking to ask the dwarves to remould and make something out of them.
Shin would have wasted no time and would have already started walking away however, he ended up detecting a weird existence.
His fur was standing erect, as if he was getting goosebumps. His instincts were screaming out loud that someone was watching them.
'Could it be...? The Supreme Celestials?', he asked himself, thinking about the possibility of them being the Supremes.
However, the Supreme celestials wouldn't be so careless as to let their presence known.
Moreover, they are many times stronger than Shin. By no means could he sense their presence even if he tried.
So, something was wrong. It couldn't have been them!
'It's not the Supremes...'
'It's someone weaker...'
'A celestial perhaps…?'
'No. Maybe not.'
'Someone even weaker…', Shin concluded after thinking for a while.
He moved his gazes back and forth, trying to find the exact point from which the unknown being was spying on them.
He failed to find it. It was either because the said unknown was not too weak or Shin's senses were simply dull even now.
Regardless, he immediately knew that unless he used his skill, he couldn't find the spy. Therefore, without wasting any time, he activated his skill.
He was forced to use his skill - All Seeing Eyes.
It didn't take him even a second to notice a small spatial warp which was similar to the surface of the water - in the sky.
He stared directly into the spatial warp from where the King and the High Sage were watching the destruction of their own army.
This Great High-Sage was the same person who was being mocked by Balton and Wendy previously.
